ANOTHER VICTORY
The Railroad Won the Two Other
Injunction Suits Today
Gases We're Tried and the Decision of
the Court Rendered This
Morning.

Circuit Judge Husbands this morn.
ing rendered his decision in the other
two injunction suits growing out of
the swearing out of warrants and
other annoyances of some of the prop
erty owners on the Cairo extension Of
the Illinois Central right of way.
These were the injunctions of the IL
linois Central against r. l.. Potter
and Mrs. Sam Liebel.
1t was thought the attorneys would
be willing to abide by the decision in
the Rottgering case, which it was
claimed involved the same facts and
principles Of law, but the attorneys
for the property owners demanded
trials in these cases also, and Judge
Husbands tried them yesterday after
noon, deciding in favor of the railroad
company this morning as he did in
the Rottgering case.

A large contingent of the people Of
Springfield, o., departed from their
usual Sabbath avocations to participate
in or witness an effort to close all the
saloons last Sunday. The police in
citizens clothes made numerous raids,
and in cases where the saloonkeepers
declined to admit them when they de-
manded admission they broke in the
doors with''axes, to the delight Of the
small boy and no doubt to the edifica-
tion of the populace in general. The
police are now alluded to there as

HOW SLEEP MAY be wooED
Position In Which a Person Should
Lie 10 Induce Somnolsnce.

Position In Which a Person Should
Lie to Induce somnolsnce.
Few persons in an ordinary assem-
hlage can tell ofhand what positions
they assume to induce sleep and yet
there is not an Individual In the
world who has not some trick Of dis
tributing limbs and trunk to Insure
slumber's blissful spell which he
practices unconsciously. This is a
night habit as perpetual and immuts-
BILE under normal conditions as the
succession OF the seasons. No sooner
are we really on 10 the land OF nod
than the night habit asserts itself.
Our hands and arms seek the same
parts Of the bed or the same portions
of our bodies upon which they have
nightly rested since infancy: our feet
and legs stretch at the same angles
or loosely entwine in comfortable re-
taxation as commanded by unconscious
will.
IL Is seldom OF our own deliberate
volition that we place our bodies in
position for sleep, az you will md
tonight on going to bed II you re-
member these words. In truth. II you
do not seek to combat the instincts
you will be surprised at the disposi-
lions of the various members involun-
tarily made. II you endesyor TO so
10 sleep by a new arrangement Of the
body you win also be surprised by
the revolt against slumbeT which via
surely ensus. but even before the
struggle is well begun you will prob
ably surrender and permit the ALI
masterful night habit to reinstats
those little details Of position which
long practice has made necessary "

the bond question. II the council

II the amount is 5000, 900 it will not
mean that the people are voting
5000, 900 in taxes, which some pro-
