MY HOW IT DID
UPSET THEM (!
Pair Of Frisky Youths at Wed
ding Conquered by Constable
0'Brien- Fined $40.

Constable James O'Brien had his
hands full at Il wedding held in Pol
kos hall, Fayette street and Chap
man avenue, last night. Carousing
kept the officer busy, most of his trou-
BILE being with two youths, who in
sisted on being disorderly. They
were finally put out of the place and
told to go home. In little while
some one told Officer O'Brien that
they were outside threatening to kill
him.
Undaunted by the threat, he went
outside and saw one of them with his
hand in his back pocket Thinking
he had gun, the constable grappled
with him, the fellow finally eluding
his grasp and getting away. During
the row someone threw large stone
at O'Brien, but missed him.
Patrolman Chris. Hanson finally
arrived on the scene, and placed both
offenders under arrest.
Before the recorder this morning
they gave their names as Paul An
drews and Andrew Stengle, both liv-
ing at 613 Fayette street. Andrews
was searched and a pair of steel
knuckles were found in hisipocket.
He was fined $25. Stengle, the one
who it is alleged threw the stone, was
fined SIS. If the fines are not paid
they will be taken to the county jail.

The Excise Board at last nights
meeting decided that no action will
be taken by the excise board against
Sunday violators unless a complaint
signed by two Witnesses, is formally
presented to the commissioners. This
is the opinion of the city attorney,
who has told President Hoy that any
other action would be illegal, said
Mr.. Hoy last night Mr.. Hoy said
that while it is known that Zeramba
and Smith were fined for illegal sell
ing, it is impossible for the board to
act without the necessary complaints
The president also declares that the
board would gladly take action, il
some one would only make the com
plants. Section 20 of the excise
ordinance reads that all places must
be closed on Sundays, and Section 21
requires that all places must be clos
ed between the hours of midnight
and am, also that the licenses oi
these offenders may be revoked.
Commissioner Schoonover suggest
ed that the board notify all person!
found guilty to show cause why thel1
licenses should not be revoked. Com
missioners Hanson and Goldman re
iterated the sentiment oil Mr.. Schoon
over.
Peter Kozub told the board that {
number of places were selling beel
without licenses. He was told by Mr.
Hoy to produce witnesses and the
board would take action. 1t is the
general opinion of the commissioners
that other saloons will follow Hans
Lehman's example this coming Sun
day in selling soft drinks.

SHERIFFS
7 0 7 TREAT'
Keeper Osborne of State Prison
at Trenton Puts Foot Down on
Last Drink" Custom.

TRENTON, Aug. 10.-The sheriff
of MiddleseX county, together with all
the other sheriffs of the state, have
been officially notified by Principal
Keeper George o. Osborne, of the
New Jersey State Prison, that there
must be no more last drink" enter
tainments which prospective convicts
with money have heretofore been al
lowed quite freely to indulge in
Keeper Osborne has taken decided
stand to put an end to the practice
of many of the sheriffs of bringing
to the prison men who are partly or
wholly under the influence of liquor.
Keeper Osborne has on several oc-
casions been much surprised to find
that men turned over to his custody
by sheriffs have been in various sta
ges of intoXication. Recently he in
stituted an investigation to learn how
this condition came about. He states
that he found that it has been the
custom of sheriffs and their deputies
to allow prisoners in their charge
and on the way to prison to have as
many drinks as they had the cash to
pay for. This leeway resulted in
many extreme cases of drunkenness
being admitted to the prison, and
from this considerable trouble was
experienced by those who have
charge of the reception of convicts.
If sheriffs do not voluntarily aid
Keeper Osborne in this attempt at
drinking reform he will take sum-
mary action to bring about the con-
dition he SO much desires. He an
nounces that hereafter when sher-
iff or under sheriff presents at the
prison prisoner who is under the
influence of liquor such prisoners will
not be received into the institution.
This decision means that when Off
GERS of the law have drunken prison
ers in their custody and these con-
victs are refused admittance to the
prison, they must be taken away
and retained by the legal officers un-
such time as they may have recovered
sufficiently to qualify under Keeper
Osborne's sobriety ruling.
This practice of treating prisoners
on their way to prison is characterize
ed by Mr.. Osborne as very bad. He
points out that in many instances
prisoners have spent considerable
sums of money which if they had
taken it to the prison with them
would have been kept in trust until
the expiration of their terms and
then would have been turned over to
them as a fund to start life anew. 1t
is claimed that convicts have been
induced to spend their money by
some unscrupulous officers by the
that if they took it to
prison with them they would never
get it again.

BOARD FAILS TO ACT
AGAINST V|OLATORS.
Excise Commissioners Say Thai
Formal Complaint Must be Made.

1t was asserted that complaints
before the recorder do not give the
board authority to act on the matter.
The following resolution was final
ly drawn up and passed:
Resolved, That from and after the
adoption of this rule, the interior of
the bar and business room in which
liquors and other intoxicating drinks
are sold and served under any license
granted by this board shall, during
such times as such sales are prohibit
ed by the law, be open to full view
from the public streets; provided,
however, this rule shall have no ap-
plication to such places as are exempt
from its operation under the provi-
sions of the said law.
Commissioner Schoonover, of the
investigating committee, reported
that the hotel of Chris. Olsen at 1S9
Market street, had only eight rooms,
while the law requires ten. After a
motion, the word 'hotel' was erased
and retail" inserted in the applica-
ton, on which the board then acted
favorably.
The application of d. Isenberg for
a transfer was not granted, but was
laid on the table for further consider
alton.
Mr.. Schwartz, agent for the prop
erty, spoke against its being granted.
The president said that he had
viewed the place and that although
it was very dirty, it could be cleaned
up.
Mr.. Isenberg, being present, spoke
in his own behalf, the board finally
deciding to give the matter further
Investigation regarding the tenancy.

While he has given his attention to

vinced that the Wildervlle district
will become one of the best fruit Sec
tions Of Rogue River Valley. When
he went on his place eight years ago
he planted . small orchard to raise
fruit for home USE These trees az
well as some grape vines have made q
strong growth aud since old enough
bear profusely and Of the best quality.
AS peach district Mr.. Hooking
thinks his saction perfect for the soil
is deep red clay and frosts have
never injured crop. In his orchard
he planted 10 peach trees eight years
ago. The third year they bore few
peaches and for the five years since
they have not missed crop and this
year are loaded with the finest peaches
that were ever grown in Rogue River
Valley. land famous for its luscious
peaches. Land Is yet cheap and the
roads to Grants Pass are being made
better each year and the time not dis.
