Waterloo. March 3-James Neill, of
Savannah, Ga, an actor of some re-
nown, has paid visit to Hon. C. e.
Pickett, grand exalted ruler Of the Elks
In regard to little matter that has
estranged him from the fraternity of
the Elks. While being initiated into the
secrets of the order recently at Spo-
kane, Wash. he objected to the pro-
ceedings on the grounds that he was
being made the butt of too much horse
play. He withdrew from the lodge room
and refused to complete the initiatory
service. The newspapers took the mat
ter up and he has been advertised all
over the United States by the incident.
His object in coming to Waterloo was
to have talk with the highest officer of
the lodge and see what could be done
to set him right before the public. He
acknowledges that he is a good fellow
and that the Elks as an order are the
same but he goes after the Spokane
lodge in no uncertain terms.
Mr.. Pickett discussed the matter at
length with Mr.. Neill and will do what
he can to untagle the crossed wires OF
the actor and the Elks. Mr.. Neill left

servance OF the law for period OF one
year. It has been the practice In the
past for parties bringing Injunction
suits against saloonkeepers to permit
these bonds to be given, and by the
payment of the costs incurred by the
bringing of the action the prosecution
of the case is dismissed.
The case decided by Judge Gaynor is
that in which H. G. Marshall. state SUI
perintendent of the Anti Saloon
League, brought an action. while SUI
perintendent of the Woodbury. county
league, against Joseph Foxhaven. a
saloonk keeper at Oil Fourth street, and
John Arensdorf. his bondsman, 1t being
alleged that Foxhoven violated the in
junction of the court and thereby sub
jected his bond, given for faithful OBJ
servance, to liability. The amount of
the bond was $3.50.
Judge Gaynor held that Woodbury.
county is the only party that is eligible
under the law to bring an action to re-
cover on one of these bonds. The stat
ute states that the money from the
forfeiture of an abatement bond shalt
be paid into the county treasury, and
the court holds 1t is within the province
of the county only to demand such for
fixture.
The defense denurred to the petition
of the plaintiff, giving several reasons
why the petition should be dismissed.
One reason was that that there had
been no violation of the bond, that the
amount of the bond was excessive and
that the law provides for no penalty for
violation of the bond.
