NOT IN CLUB OR HOTEL
Sale of Intoxicating Liquor on Sunday
Prohibited.
Bill Originally Intended to Prevent
Importation of Beer i'm Kegs
Changed by the House.

The Congress that has just adjourned en-
acted law to prevent the sale of intoxi-
eating liquors on Sunday in the District of
Columbia which will absolutely prevent the
sale of beer or other Intoxicating liquor in
the District, whether in saloon, hotel or
club house. No such legislation was intend
ed when the Commissioners recommended
the passage of the bill framed by them on
this subject.
The Sunday liquor law now in force in
the District follows:
THAT it shall be unlawful for any maker,
brewer or distiller of beer or other intoxi-
eating liquors in the District of Columbia,
or other person or corporation, or the agent
or servant of such maker, brewer or distill-
er. or the agent or servant of any maker
brewer or distiller of beer other intoxi-
eating liquors outside of said District, and
other person or corporation, to sell or de-
liver any beer or other intoxicating liquors
in the District of Columbia on the first day
of the week. commonly called Sunday.
Sec. 2. That any person violating the
provisions of this act shall, on conviction
thereof in the Police Court on a prosecu-
tion in the name of the District of Column
bia, be punished by fine of not less than
$3.50 nor more than $500 for each and every
offense."
The Original Intention.
The Sunday liquor bill as originally franz
ed and approved by the Commissioners
was for the purpose of preventing outside
brewers from sending beer into the Dis
trict in kegs on Sunday, which they stated
had caused a great deal of drunkenness in
the city. The Commissioners had no au-
thority to prevent this practice, and for that
reason wanted passed bill which they ap-
proved.
Their plan worked smoothly until the
bill came up in the House for consideration,
when Gen. Grosvenor of Ohio asked why
the bill was limited to the brewer or dis
tiller or his agent servant.
Mr.. Babcock said there was only one evil
to cure, and that was covered by the bill
Changed by the House.
Mr.. Grosvenor was not satisfied and NOV
ed to insert "or other person or corpora
ton
The bill was passed by the Senate exactly
as it went through the House and received
the signature of the President AS long as
this law is in effect no one can sell beer
or other Intoxicating liquor in the District
under any consideration, Sunday.

Denial Was Useless,

A young colored man, giving his name as
William Howard, was before the Police
Court today on two charges. He admitted
that he had been dsorderly, but denied
that he had assaulted anybody
"a man threw brick at me-" he said,
"and I threw back at him, but didn't hit
him"
Complaint was made by a citizen that
Howard had abused him, and had followed
up his abuse by striking him with a brick.
In the assault case a penalty of $40 or

QUANTITIES OF QUAIL
Dozens Of Birds Being Ordered for Breeding
Purposes.
Mr.. MOreland's Offer Being Eagerly
Embraced by Local and Near.
by SpOrtsmen.

The offer of Mr. Walter NJ. Moreland, the
well-known game dealer, to secure quail in
the west and southwest at cost for all per-
sons who desire to aid in replenishing the
supply which was decimate5 by the recent
storm Is being taken advantage of by many
sport lovers. The announcement of Mr.
Morelands generous offer in The Evening
Star was widely read, and he is now re-
ceiving orders for birds from Washington
ians and residents Of Virginia and Mary
land as well. Mr.. Moreland is placing his
orders in Kansas and Indian territory and
will also bring some birds from Tennessee in
order to compare them with the former
class.
Large Orders Received.
Among some of the large orders received
are those Of r. w. Johnson, Arlington,
Virginia, for eight and half dozen; R. r.
Rapley. Alexandria, ten dozen; Judge Nor
ris, Alexandria. ten dozen; Charles w.

placed an order for % dozen birds with Mr..
Moreland. The first birds are expected here
Monday Maj L. l.. Beake intends pro-
curing a number of birds to release at Mar

Lands to BE Posted.
The indications are that several thousand
healthy and strong birds will be released
in the vicinity of Washington through this
agency, with the result of breeding many
coveys to afford good sport hereafter.
There is a very general and vigorous in
tention expressed by those who are order
ing the birds to vigorously prevent trespass
on the lands whers the birds are liberated,
and many Virginia, Maryland and District
farmers whose premises have not been
hitherto posted intend to protect them
hereafter. From all Indications, therefore,
the storm promises to be for the future, at
least to lovers of field sport for the sport
alone, a blessing in disguise.

TERRITORIAL MORTAL
Inspection by the Board of visitors
Yesterday

The new board of visitors of the Ter
-itorial Normal school at Tempe, Rev.
Dr. Lewis Halsey. DR.. William Dufield
and DR.. c. H. Jones of Tempe, began
the exercise Of their official functions
yesterday. Speaking of the school, DR..
Dumeld said it had been a revelation to
him and that in order that there should
be . proper appreciation of it it should
be extensively visited by those who have
an interest in the educational progress
If the territory.
The new principal, Professor Smith,
has brought new life and modern meth
DDS into its management. There is an
Esprit du corps among the teachers
which has been sadly lacking almost
since the establishment of the institu-
ton. The teachers are doing splendid
work in which they have the co-opsra-
ton of very active and intelligent lot
Of pupils. The new course is an admi-
rable one; foreign languages, the
quick and the dead, have been omitted
and the time heretofore wasted on these
studies is now proftably employed in
acquiring a better understanding of
what a school teacher needs. More at
tention is paid to English. The teach
/ ing is practical. so that the pupils who
complete the course will be able to do
/ what so few normal and high school
graduates and even teachers have been
able to do. express themselves in cor
rect language. Mathematics is given a
judiciously prominent place in the
course and great deal of attention is
given to the services.
In the Encouragement OF the course
| it has been expanded so that there will
/ be no graduating class this year.
The physical drill for the young ladies
and the military drill for the cadets
were believed by the visitors to be ad-
given to the sciences.
| The students are for the most part
/ young, but they are as clean a lot as
may be found in any institution in the
| country and are fully appreciative of
| the advantages afforded them
The arrangements OF the school are
! excellent though there is a need OF
some things among which is a domi-
| tory. The cost Of living was found by
I the board to be high. Board is about
/ 50 a week exclusive of room rent This
! cost would be greatly reduced if there
We're a good dOrmitOry and the attend
ance would at'the same time be largely
