Tilt With Mayor

Il signed that petition because l had
heard q certain city official say that
in case Bestmann didn't get his license
mine would be revoked, and that
aroused my Indignation and 1 arrayed
myself on the other side answered
Mr.. Niemeyer.
THAT means me-" the mayor spoke
un. Il said that and | meant it, If
this locality is no place for Bestmann
it is no place for you
Mr. Niemeyer denied that he had ref
erence to the mayor in his statement
and intimated that the city clerk was
the one he meant.
Mr.. Gates put Niemeyer through a
vigorous examination on the charges Of
pernicious activity, but apparently
failed to make out a case.
Mr.. Niemeyer may not be guilty of
pernicious activity in this proposition
said Mayor McAleer, but he is guilty
of selling liquor in retail quantities un-
der his wholesale license and it should
be revoked on that score. / have had
evidence within the last two weeks
that he has been guilty of violating the
liquor ordinances
Niemeyer entered an emphatic denial
to these charges and defed the mayor
to prove them in open court. He admit
led that he had been guilty of selling
in retail quantities about two years ago,
but since that time had strictly obeyed
the ordinance.
On the statements of the mayor Mr..
Gates wanted the license revoked then
and there with the privilege accorded
to Mr.. Niemeyer of proving himself in
rocent of the charges at the next meet
ing and thereby regaining his good
name if not his wholesale license. Com
missioner James was for a milder meth
cd and on his amendment the case was
carried over for another week, when
witnesses will tell what they know
about NiemeYer.s business methods.

HOT TILT OVER
LIQUOR LICENSE
A. NIEMEYER DEFIES MAYOR
TO PROVE CHARGES
Residents of Central Avenue Protest
Aoainst Granting Permit and Long
Established Business May
Be Driven Out

Because he had thoughtlessly signed
n petition protesting against permission
being granted j. II. Bestmann to con-
duct wholesale liquor establishments
at 115S Central avenue, A. Niemeyer
nearly lost his own license, and II is
probable that before the board of police
commissioners is through with his case
his license may be entirely revoked.
The board yesterday granted him stay
of proceedings for one week III oruer
that he may produce evidence why MS
license should not be taken from hlln'
7. H. Bestmann has been before the
police board at it's meetings for the
last two or three weeks in an EFFORT
TO secure a wholesale liquor Incense
The building at Twelfth and central III
which he proposed to conduct his liquor
business is owned by the mother of
civ official who has been actively inter-
ested in having the license granted
Each time the application has come up
for consideration by the board the prop
erty owners of the neighborhood nave
offered vigorous protests and each week
these protests have gathered volume
and momentum until when the commas
sion met yesterday morning lHe Co'i'-
,nittee room was so crowded with OBJ
jectors that standing room only was
possible and an overflow indignation
meeting had to be held in the corri-
doris. An even dozen petitions protest
ing against Bestmann's application mad
been filed with the commission ana
each of these protests bore from tWen-
ty to fifty names.
These protests were so broad IN thelr
character and entered such strenuous
objections to any liquor business i'll
this locality which is a residence neigh
borhood, that Commissioner Gates
asked that not only the Bestman petit
ton be denied but that the license OF
A. Niemeyer, who conducts similar
business on the corner of Eleventh
street and Central avenue, be revoked
Niemeyer's name had appeared on one
of the protests and at the last meet
ing Commissioner Gates had accused
him of pernicious activity in the case
and the commissions had ordered Me
meyer to be present and show cause
why his license should not be revoked
on this charge.
"The mere fact that he signed such
a petition is sufficient evidence against
him and his license should be revoked
on that account" said Commissioner
Gates.

How far the magnetic influence Of

defined as yet, but from the way the
watches Of the physicians and the at

is thought that it extends throughout

blocks of ground. Whenever persons
go into the room where this magnet
is placed Superintendent Jones asks
for their watches, as they will be so
thoroughly magnetized if near the
magnet when the current is turned on
that they will be useless until after
they are demagnetized

point what other magnets have former
ly accomplished in a lesser degree,
and this greater degree of efficiency is
brought about by the simple use of
greater magnetic force than was ever
before used.
Briefly described, the magnet stands
on one end on the door. 1t is five feet
high, weighs quarter of ton, and
the steel core is five inches in diameter,
and around this core is wound two
miles of No. copper wire, making it
in total diameter as large around as a
common wooden water pail or nail
keg.
The particular specific cases for
which this magnet is intended are
those in which a piece of steel has be-
come imbedded in the eye. Since the
employment of what is called the new
steel and the increased speed at which
metals are turned on the lathes, there
has been large Increase in the num-
Der Of eye injuries from particles of
steel being thrown with sufficient yio-
lence into the eye to cut their way
through the vitreouS humor and make
it Impossible, with the methods former
ly employed, toremove such substances.
When it is desired to operate, the
patient stands by the side of the mag
net with the affected eye resting on
small brass support, the eye just
clearing the point of the magnet. The
point is removable, so that it may be
sterilized. If there is a particle of
steel in the patients eye he is likely
to shrek, jump from the magnet and
clasp his hand to his eye, for the mag
net has drawn the steel up through
the humor. and it is exposed to the
view of the oculist. With slight OPP

Electro Magnet at Bridgeport to
Take Pieces of steel From Eyes.
In the X-ray room at the Bridgeport
Hospital the largest electro-magnet in
the world for use in surgical operations
has recently been set up. 1t was de-
signed and constructed for DR.. Frank
NJ. Wilson, of that city, to aid in per-
forming certain operations upon the
eye which without it are impossible to
be performed, and because of this ina
bility many human eye loses its sight
forever. While this magnet is the
same as all other magnets in the man
ner Of its working, the degree and ex-
tent of its work must be seen to be ap-
preciated, for it surpasses any other
magnet ever made for such purposes.

hook are attached independently two
suspension rods, adapted to diverge
from the same at different angles.
These members are of composite con-
struction. The upper section consists
of length of wire, terminating in a
hook. This is Joined by second
length, composed preferably of fiat
sheet metal, bent at it's upper end to
form cylinder, or ear, into the orifice
of which the wire is passed. LII this
ear are several openings which re-
ceive the hooks at the end Of the wire
sections, thus effecting an adjustment
Of the length Of the hanger. The lower
sheet metal member is independently
adjustable, BY reason of pivoted
lower section, forming an elbow joint,
which permits of considerable latitude
in the adjustment OF the aggregate
length of the hanger AS the hanger
forms more or less rigid whole, its
use enables picture frame to be
readlly hung on or removed from the
