Akin LAW SUSTAINED
SUPERIOR COURT RULING
S 900 Saloon License in Ohio DecIsr-
ed Constitutional in Hearing at
Which Ex-Governor Pattison's SAM
ty Was at Issue.
Publishers Press.1

ClncInnau, o., Jan. 2.-The Akin
saloon tax law was sustained by the
superior court in this city. The law
raised the Dow tax from $3.50 to 81 900
per annum. This was the most inn
portant case pending in the state of
Ohio, for ca the fate of this bill de-
pended the contingency of the legisla-
ture being called in extra session to
enact scores of bills which were in
the same situation as the Akin law.
The main point depended on by the in
terests which desired to have the bill
declared invalid was q claim that the
late Governor Pattison was not in a
condition of health to know the con-
tents of the bill when 1t was taken to
the gubernatorial residence by his
private secretary, and that, conse-
quently, It did not come within that
provision Of the law which says the
states chief executive shall have full
knowledge of. every bill which is pre-
scented to him for executive action
Members of Governor Pattison's fam
lily and his physicians were called to
testify as to his physical and mental
condition during the time the Akin
bill was in possession of his secretary.

Rescued Miner Forgot Story of

THIS DID NOT HELP HIM.

Los Angeles, Cal, Jan. 2-L. B.
Hicks, who for Is days was buried
alive in tunnel of the Edison Elec-
trio company on Kern river, and
whose rescue attracted the worlds at
tention, made his debut as an actor
Such was bis stage fright that it was
pitiable to see his terror. Hicks had
been coached thoroughly and commit
ted to memory the story of his amaz-
ing escape from death. His hackers
supposed his tale of the rescue, which,
of course, had been written for him,
would make a hit. At the last min
ute Hicks baked. He refused to go
on the stage at all, and declared he
did not care what his manager lost.
He finally consented to take seat in
the front row and answer such Ques-
lions as were put to him. When the
first question was asked he demanded
a chew of tobacco before answering.
Then he sat sullenly and answered
q.estions in monosyllables and grunts
until the crowd that had paid to see
him became weary and left the hall

Vaudeville at the Phillips.

This column has had occasion to
say many complimentary things
about the vaudeville bills presented
at the New Phillips in the past two
years, but it was never more justified
in a complimentary notice than of the
bill that is running at this time.
Without exception it is one of the
very best in months and the big
houses that greet it show no end OF
enthusiasm, giving various of the per-
formers several encores. Carl Ray
mond, comedy acrobat, is among the
best in his line, while Sid Baxter,
aerial bicyclist and juggler, is really
wonderful. He has the assistance OF
Miss Beatrice Southwick. Few teams
have ever pleased patrons of the
house more than the Boxing HornerS
who put on comedy sketch entitled,
Settling a Family Dispute With
Four Ounce Gloves" Clark & Tenn
pie, high class duetists, presenting a
sketch entitled THE Bell Boy and
the Maid" make great hit. The
Drunken Mattress" on of the motion
pictures, projected by the Philoscope
is of surprising comical nature.
Cal Lankert has pleasing illustrated
song and all told there is an after
noon or evening of real enjoyment
awaiting all those who go to the New
Phillips this week.
