UNDER THE OLD LAW
Attorney Davis COnstrues the
New Liquor Statute.
Not Intended to Supersede Existing
Provisions.
An Opinion Contemplated Ia Clear

derstanding.

AS there seemed to be great diversity Of
opinion among dealers, temperance work
ers, and the public generally as TO the ef-
feet of the recent amendment TO the liquor
laws of the District, United States Attorney
for the District of Columbia Henry E. Da-
Wis was asked his opinion on the subject.
And, as he was one OF the factors in the
passage of the recent act. his opinion Will
go far toward clearing up any doubt that
may be entertained as 10 the extent and
operation of the new law.
Mr.. Davis said:
I'm my opinion the new law in relation
10 the sale of intoxicating liquors on Sun
day does not change the earlier law so
far as hotels and clubs are concerned
There are no repeating words IN the new
act. which was intended, not TO repeal or
supersede any existing provisions, but
merely to provide for an omitted case. the
case namely of delivering on Sunday in
toXicating liquors sold on some prior day
of the week. The words other person or
corporation were inserted so as TO pre-
vent evasion of the act by the claim that
the persons delivering were not brewers or
their representatives. and the words sell
or were inserted to prevent the contsn-
| tion that by expressly providing against
delivery the act might be said implicitly
to countenance selling on Sunday by
brewers and their representatives. Be
sides the penalties prescribed by the old
and new acts are radically different. BY
the new act fine onlT is imposed - the
old act not only was :. tine imposed. but
also it was provided that on "a second con-
viction the fine imposed on the lirs- should
be increased. and the Offender; license re-
voked and that after a second conviction
the offender should never again nave a IL
cense. 1t is not possible that Congress
| intended to repeal these very wholesome
| provisions of the old Law. leaving ii TO
the liquor dealers TO go on selling as they
please subject only to the risk OF being
| fined from time to time if detected and
! convicted.
The new act was submitted by the At
torney General to me for examination be-
fore its approval and | recommended its
signature in the clear belief that it could
not have the effect now claimed for it.

No Visible Danger.

(From the New York Commercial Advertiser.)
What part will be played by the monlStic
orders of the Catholic Church in the GccleSiasti-
cal administration cf possessions? The
question has been asked by some who fear that
they will oppose the methods already outlined
by Catholic prelateS Of this country in harmony
with American principles. II i imagined that
the opportunities Of enlarged influence may tempt
American Catholicism to reactionary methods
and that its policy with regard 10 the millions
Of its new adherents may be modified uniavorabIy
by the ambition OF these orders But there il
little danger from this source. they have
ceased to dominate their own church. and are
no longer influential they once were.

Queer Florida Owls.
(From Forest and Stream.)


Early in April of last year the captain
of the steamer Roseada, plying on the Kis-
simmee River, reported the discovery of
white owls nest, which was in hole of a
leaning dead cabbage palm, overhanging
the river. Twice a week on his trip up
and down he watched the growth of the
birds until he considered them old enough
to move He then transferred them from
the nest to a box under serious protests
from the parent birds. The birds proved
to be specimens of the barn owl, and great
was the surprise to see the three owls of
three different sizes and evidently consid-
cradle difference in their ages. From en-
quiry it is learned that these birds, after
Matching the first egg lay another. whose
Matching is left to be done by the young
bird while it feathers, thus explaining why
the birds in the different stages of devel-
opment were found in the same nest, and
explaining. too, the responsibility that the
oldest bird seemed to have over the young
er ones-much as an older child watches
over the younger ones of family.

The stock market this morning was weak
and prices declined badly. There was at
times momentary strength in certain
stocks, but even the best supported securi-
ties on the list partook of the general
downward tendency. This condition of
things was not surprise after the de-
clines of last week, and the very poor bank
statement. The general belief seemed to
be that prices were getting a lower level
and that for several days at least and per-
haps for the remainder of the month, little
rally need be expected. The tendency for
the moment is toward a hardening Of
money. and this can hardly help affecting
speculation adversely. 1t is thought that
and 1-2 per cent for call money this
week is not in the least unlikely. Added to
this fact it is certain that the leaders are
