MR.. BUTTONS ARGUMENT.

At the conclusion of Judge MacRae's
speech, at 80 o'clock, the court took a
recess until 3, at which time argument
was resumed, Mr.. Burton speaking for
the defendant. His speech was most
able and exhaustive one. He concluded
at 6 o'clock.
He began by laying down the follow
ing propositions:
This statute is unconstitutional be-
cause: ~ 1t devolves judicial power
upon an executive or ministerial officer;
~ it devolves power upon the Legisla-
ture not contemplated by the constitu-
ton; q, it adds to the qualifications for
holding office: al it deprives of property
without due process of law.
| In the first place, Mr.. Burton con-
| tended. it gives the executive power to
suspend judicial officer, and then takes
to itself the power of either restoring or
removing permanently. Where does Il
get authority for the exercise of such
] power? The Constitution in more than

OLD HATS ON MANY HEADS

What becomes Of the old hats? The

hats and straw hats Of various kinds
where do they go when discarded by
their owners? Every time man buys
new hat he has the old one wrapped up,

or Robinson leaves his old "lid'' Il note
is made of it and duly entered on this

After so or 60 days have elapsed
general clearing out of the old hats is
made, and they go to the secondhand
stores along South Clark street, to the
costumers' palaces, to the country stores
sometimes, all to DO cleaned, refined
and furnished up Che best way possible.
1t is thus possible for IL man to be
stopped on some chilly evening and
asked to assist some unfortunate who is
wearing one of his old hats. These old
hats arc sometimes sent to the theaters
to be used as headgear for "the rabble"
or ian angry mob or "a group of Ro-

UNFORTUNATE JACOB.
Robbed and Beaten and Deserted by His
Wife.

Jacob Laos, a Pole residing in Smiths row
ON South Main street. declares he has found
that marriage is a failure, and the story in
which he figures seems to justify his con-
clusion. Up to Sunday last Jacob and his
wife lived in peace and happiness. They
were industrious and thrifty, and despite the
hard times the husband succeeded in laying
away little money for a rainy day. An
evil spirit seems to have suddenly seized the
wife, however, and now Jacob is in sore
trouble, paiD-and a law suit.
On Sunday, according to Jacob his wife
broke open his trunk and stole 500 from it,
He discovered the theft and followed the
wife to the home of a neighbor named Zalin-
ski The wife refused to return the money,
or go home. 1t is charged that Jacob at
tempted to force her to do one or the other
but Mrs Lizzie Zalinski interfered. Jacob
/ punched the latter on the nose and shoulder
and this started general fight. William and
| Joseph Zalinski and John Szadlick pouuced
upon the unfortunate Jacob, and after ad-
ministering a severe beating threw the
victim down a stairway 1t is claimed that
the unfortunate man landed upon his head at
the foot of the stairway and remained there
unconscious for fully five minutes.
The fracas ended at this point. When
Jacob revived he went home for reflection,
and incidentally, also for some court plaster
which led him to the conclusion that his
only hope for consolation was in law suit
Last night he appealed to Justice Toomey
and William and Joe Zalinsky and John
Szadlick were arrested on charges of assault
and battery. They pleaded in justification
that Jacob came TO their house and created a
disturbance, but each was put under $500
bail for trial at court Mrs Zalinsh then
preferred charge of assault and battery
against Jacob, and he was put under $500
bail
After the hearings before the Justice were
concluded Jacob sought his wife again, but
learned that she left town yesterday morn.
ing. It is believed she has gone to Troy,
Il my. Jacob can't follow her as his bonds
man will insist that he remain here until the
suits are tried at the September term of
court. Should the husband make an attempt
to leave town the bail will be surrendered
and Jacob will have to 90 to jail until the
trials come up. Verify Jacob is badly handi-
capped.

dramatic reader is concerned, well met every
expectation. Those present were thoroughly
delighted with the entertainment, and gave

simply grand, while the garden scene from

much dramatic power. Her limitations of

BOARD OF HEALTH.

Ohicers Elected.


The local Board of Health met last night
for reorganization. The Council chamber
being engaged for a meeting Of the fire
trustees the Board was permitted to meet in
the parlor Of the Columbia Hose Company
and before the close Of the session a resolu-
ton Of thanks to the company for its
courtesy was adopted.
The meeting was attended by President
Spalding Messrs. Morrison. Malone and
Holman, Secretary Curtin, Health officer
Conry, and also Christ Schmidt, the newly
appointed member. The latter presented his
credentials and was duly sworn in by Presi-
dent spalding.
There was no contest in the election of
officers, the Board being unanimous in the
sentiment that all the old officers should be
reelected. NJ d. Malone was made tenn
pOrary chairman after the old Board ad-
journed and j. W. Curtin temporary secre-
tary. Mr.. Holman then nominated DR..
Spalding for re election as president of the
Board. The doctor stated that he was not
anxious to be president, and was not un-
mindful Of the good feeling ON the part Of
the Board He had served four years in the
Office and was sincere in asking Mr. Holman
to accept the place, but would not shirk his
in the position. Mr.. Holman said he did not
wish the office and President Spalding was
elected unanimously. John w. Curtin was
reelected secretary and Hon. Patrick Conry
Health officer by a similar vote.
After the election President Spalding stated
that he had tried TO do his duty in the past
and would continue ON that line, although
he had learned that to do-so it was absolutely
necessary to become subject to criticism at
times Nevertheless he felt in his own con-
science that whatever he had done was right
and would continue, as in the past, perform
ing his duty as his best judgment dictated.
Messrs. Curtin and Conry thanked the
Board for their reelection, after which Presi-
dent Spalding announced the appointment of
the following committees
