The Post Dispatch says: The

its limit in the case of VIM. j.
Van Auken, now under observa-
item at the City Hospital after ar
rest for holding a pistolto a chauf-
feur's head and making him go 40
miles 40 hour through the city.
1t has the marks of a real mania
since he tried to kin himself Mon

The difference between this case
and others is mainly ia the fact
that Van Auken is under obserya-

The Sunday lid is getting them
simple law enforcement, that's
it. A big brewing company in
Kansas City failed in business the
other day, and here is what the at
torney for the brewery admits as
facts:
There were many reasons for
the failure. Most important Of
all, l think, was this wave of re-
form in Kansas City. 1t has been
hard enough for the brewers in
Missouri, but worse in Kansas.
They are closing up the joints on
the Kansas side and locking the
saloons on the Missouri side on
Sunday.
I'VE have sixteen saloons in
Wyandotte County, Kansas, that
will have to close. One Kansas
iointkeeper owes us $4,000. He
says we can sue, but we could not
collect anything in Kansas, because
the saloon business is illegal, and
brewery claims have no standing
in court.
ION the Missouri side Sunday
closing knocks the profit outsOf the
saloons. We have sixty saloons

is not the only brewery that has
saffered-they have all suffered

The uStreet Fair and Carnival
is oyer and the side-shows have
poeketed the cash and departed.
Did l say side.shoWsi That is
hardly correct, as they are the
principal feature Of every street
fair. The agricultural products
are the side.shows. The horsemen
received some recognition of the
late street fair, while the breeders
Of other classes Of stock had to do
some tall hustling to even get
place to exhibit, had to put up the
cash for lumber and build their
own pens. One prominent Po-
land China breeder of the county
was DESTROYS Of making an exhib-

for that purpose but was unable
to find a place to exhibit them.
