Uncle Ezekiel quit work on the
farm for short spell this week, just
long enough to take aunt Mirandy for
a hold y drive over the Maryland
hills To the Rockville County Fair,
not far from WaShington. Of course,
he had two tickets on account of adj
vertising posters that covered his
barn. and it is printed that he had 81
to spend besides. After the happy
pair returned home from the big day
of excitements, Uncle Geek allowed
that he had Sportiyely blowed in all of
his dollar but ninety cents and he
would have spent twice as much if he
thought it would have given Mirandy
any more fun.
Hon. W. J. Bryan, like Uncle
Ezekiel, has spent all of his energy
but 80 per cent on couple big races,
and he is now fit and ready to spend
twice as much more on the same
grounds if it will please his friends.
AS fighter he bargained for a scrap
in his New York speech about public
ownership. He booked himself for a
lively time because he is girded for it.
The safe and sane wing of Democracy
states already that Mr.. Bryan shall be
accommodated with lively time.

Appellate Court Interprets
Law in Regard to Enter
tainment in Saloons.
ELKHART CASE DECISION
1T WAS HELD BY LOWER COURT
THAT COLLINS HAD NOT VIO-
LATED LAW AS HE NEVER U.s.
ED HIS MUSIC BOX
Publishers Press1

Indianapolis, Oct 12-The Appel
late Court today decided that it is
music in saloons and not music boxes
which are forbidden by law. A judg-
ment convicting Edward Collins of
keeping "a Regina music box" in his
saloon at Elkhart was reversed
The court said THAT if the statute
were interpreted to exclude devices
rather than the music itself this
would open the way to every saloon
owner in the State to install in his
place of business one of more vocal
lists to entertain his patrons and al
lure others into his place. 1t declar-
ed that the evident purpose of the
statute was to prohibit not only devi-
ces for amusement, but music of ev-
cry kind or character, whether pro-
duced by the voice or a musical in
vention.
THE alluring of people into rooms
where liquors are sold, by means of
amusements or music said Judge
Myers, was evidently intended to
be stopped, thereby minimizing the
evils of the liquor traffic by render
ing uninviting the places where same
is sold.' As it was not shown that
Collins ever played his music-box it
was held that he had not offended.
Some of the saloon keepers at India
napolis have put music boxes into
their cellars, believing they were ev-
aiding the law by having music in the
saloons without music boxes.
