SOFT STUFF,
BUT BEER
NOT THERE

c. Z Howard. liquor complainant OF
Warwick, visited Rocky Point yesterday
under the impression that liquor was
being sold at other places than the hotel,
which has license.
Accompanying him were Deputy Sheriff
T. S. Andrews OF Warwick, Levi Smith OF
Coventry, Special Liquor officer Thorell
OF Warwick and Constable Butler Of
Arctic. The party was armed with search
warrants. but as things turned out these
were useless and the little surprise
planned on Manager Harrington netted no
striking results.
The beverages on sale az the Palm Gar
den were first examined, but not even a
beer sign was found. The Kiosk. between
the Midway and Forest casino. was visit
ed. and a smiling waiter had everything
I'm the soft line, but not a beer.
The grounds were thoroughly toured in
the quest for beer, but there was nothing
doing outside OF the hotel. which is
licensed. The coppers felt that they had
been gone one better" and one man as
serted that earlier in the afternoon there
had been an unwanted hustle noted in
some quarters.
The visitors with the search warrants
met Manager Harrington after completing
their labors and when informed OF their
labors he was a most surprised man.

A POPULAR COAST TRIP.

There can be no doubt that the water
trip to the New Jersey coast greatly en-
hances the popularity OF the resorts Of

Highlands and New York. are the fastest
boats OF their type in the world. From
the time the sky-scrapers are left behind,
points OF interest are thick along the
route Castle william. the Statue Of
Liberty and Robbins Reef light are close
10 the course. and passing between
Forts Hamilton and wadsworth the boat
emerges from The Narrows into the lower
bay The quarantine stations on Hoff-
man and Swinbourne Islands. and West
Bank light are passed In quick success
sion on the right Romer Beacon, locat-
ing the trcacherous shoals Of that name,
lies toward the ocean. and soon after II
is left behind the boat passes within the
bsecons OF Sandy Hook. The landing was
formerly made AZ this point before the
peninsula was acquired for the United
state ordnance proving grounds and other
military and government purposes. From
Atlantic Highlands an express train SER

sorts. At Long Branch the all rail route

POOR DEBTORS OATH
Il Was Taken BY Frederick Daily Under the
New Court Act.

Frederick Daily was permitted yester-
day to take the poor debtors oath before
Judge Rueckert.
He was brought TO the Sixth district
court on a writ OF habeas corpus having
been committed March 30 on an execution
issued out of the common pleas division
OF the supreme court in a damage case
for assault and battery. Edward King.
the plaintiff. being awarded damages and
costs aggregating 1900
Russell w. Richmond for the petitioner
asked that Daily be permitted TO take
the oath on his representations that he
had no real or personal estate TO pay the
Judgment or TO support himself In jail
or pay Jail charges. contending that the
section OF the general laws, which re-
Quired tort debtors 10 remain in jail six
months was no longer operative in this
case since the new court and practice
act went into effect, but that under the
provisions OF this act three months was
the limit In actions under $500 ad damnum
and costs.
Col. p H. Quinn argued that It was
not the intent OF the legislature TO
liberate from jail every man placed there
under a tort action and that there was
nothing retroactive In the court and prac-
'tice act.
Judge Rueckert ruled that the court
and practice act did not retract in the
fullest sense OF the term; that Il merely
affected the remedy that a plaintiff had.
and the present rights OF the defendant,
who was now permitted 10 take the oath.
provided he was entitled TO. after three
months. in cases within district court
jurisdiction.
Daily was put on the stand and testified
that he had no property OF any nature
with which 10 satisfy the Judgment
against him. and that he had signed a
paper assigning all his property, real and
personal TO Andrew J. Wilcox. keeper
OF the Jail, which assignment was dated
yesterday.
The court then administered the oath.

election OF a reform council. three Repub-
licans. three Democrats and Thomas II.
Peabody. Prohibitionist, the druggists
have been doing a big liquor business.
All that is reversed now and the drug
gists have been up in arms 10 induce
the town council TO grant them licenses.
The council stood firm at the July meet
ing and told the druggists that hear
ing would be useless, as the council was
united in its stand.
At the August meeting yesterday Judge
Sweeney, as counsel for Thomas J. Ban
non and his son William. conducting a
drug store in Westerly and two at Watch
Hill. and L. +. Barbour, who has a West
erly drug store, petitioned for licenses.

the council. and read resolution ex-
planning It's stand, passed by TO 2

II was the hottest document ever
sprung on n Westerly meeting and the
sum and substance OF II was that the

sum OF $ls.75.
