quarrel over Mack's truaot wife. The
quarrel WAS terminated by jackson, wno
broke stick over Mack's head, then drew
his knife and stabbed and sIashed him in q
horrible manner. On Mack's body there were
fourteen wounds; his face was laid olen,
there were three deep wounds in the region

Beer Brewers Barred.
Beer Cannot be Sold From

Yesterdays session was the largest
held by the State board Of control
this week, and WAS owing t. an effort
on the part Of the members to com
pIe,e all OF the work so they could
leave the city today for their

The letters of Messrs c. D Stan
iy and r w. Adams to the board,
demanding that the dispensaTy law
be administered in strict compliance
with it's wording, and in particular
the beer privilege feature, has at last
borne it's fruit
Hereafter, so it WAS stated yester
day, all persons having beer prlvi.
leges will be required to have ar Of
flee in which to transact business
the same as county dispenser. All
persons purchasing beer will be re-
quired to sign the same blanks as in
the dispensary, so that there will be
no difference in the buying Of whiskey
and beer.
1t can no longer be bought from
a beer delivery wagon. The board
says, however, after all order has
been left for beer by person, that
there is no objection to its being de-
livered as at present
This decision will put beer drink
ers to good deal more trouble, but
it is not likely that the consumption
will in any way be decreased.
