PLACES BAN ON DICE
SHAKING IN SALOONS
Patrons Have Legal Right, but Police
Commission viii Exercise Its
Power of Controlling
Liquor Trade

The polio commission adopted a reso-
luton yesterday afternoon declaring
it the sense of that body that the rule
against dice shaking in saloons is still
in force, and that its violation will be
considered sufficient excuse for revok-
inga liquor license.
The council, a week ago, amended
the dice shaking ordinance so as to
permit rolling of worries for cigars. At
the time the amendment to the ordi-
nance was passed the city attorney adj
vised the council to let the bars down
to such an extent that dice shaking
would be legal in saloons, in spite of
the police commission rule against it.
The council, however, declared that if
the saloons took advantage of the ordi-
nance 1t would be repealed at once.
While it is legal for saloon patrons to
shake dice, the police commission say
they must not, and if they do the pro-
prietors' licenses will be revoked. 1t
might be possible for saloon keeper
to permit dice shaking over his bar,
have his license revoked, and then take
the matter to Che courts. But it is I'M
likely any saloon keeper will care to
assume the responsibility.
1t would mean the loss of his business
while the suit was pending and would
bring him into disgrace with the police
commission. If 1t should be proved
that he had a legal right to shake dice
in his saloon, the commission could
easily find something else ON which to
base its revocation of license. for there
Is scarcely a liquor business in Los
Angeles that is not on the ragged edge
needing very little pushing to topple II
over.
AS far as the saloon is concerned
shaking dice for cigars has about the
same effect as shaking over the bar
Nearly all saloons have a cigar stano
in front of their places of business, anc
the checks paid for cigars can be re-
deemed in liquor in the saloon.

CARLSON'S COUNSEL
OVERRULED BY COURT
Only One Witness Examined, contin-
uous Objections Raised by Attor-
neys and Adjournment Taken
Until January IL

The prosecution in the hearing of W. H.
Carlson, charged with embezzlement sue
ceeded in its efforts to introduce documentary
evidence showing the establishment Of the
Consolidated bank yesterday This evidence
was in the shape of certified copies of the in
corporation papers of the Manhattan Savings
bank filed in San Francisco four years ago.
and the petition filed in the Los Angeles SUI
perior court and granted, whereby the name
was changed to Consolidated bank
1t is claimed by the defense that the bank
was formed during hiatus in the banking
laws, and is therefore without any status so
far the California banking laws are con-
cerned.
Miss Ida McKittrck. secretary, vice presi-
dent and cashier of the Consolidated bank,
was the only witness yesterday. She
called to testify regarding entries in the minute
book of the board Of directors. 1t took more
than an hour to secure an identification of the
book itself, and when questins were asked by
Deputy District Attorney Blair concerning its
contents the objections raised were many
and varied that adjournment was reached be-
fore they could be ruled on.
Owing to a full calendar and other engage
ments of Carlson's attorneys, the hearing
was continued until January 70, when the case
will have a. full week and everything else will
be subordinated to it.

Rheumatism Caused
By Dyspepsia
So Claim Many Eminent Doctors Upon
Recent Scientific Investigation

A large school of physicians, which
is constantly increasing, claims that the
eating of too much animal foods Gre
ates an oversupply of proteids, which
are composed of carbon, hydrogen, nj
trogen, oxygen and sulphur and that
when such proteids are imperfectly
digested and go into the blood they
create vast quantities of nitrogen which
the oxygen from the lungs cannot neu-
tralize, and hence result uric acid and
rheumatism and scores of other dis
eases.
These proteids do not permit the as
similation processes to take place prop
erly and poisoning results all through
the blood.
However, if such proteids are per-
fectly digested they form most valu-
able part of our food and are absolutely
necessary to life.
The fault then rests with the stom-
ach and the digestive apparatus.
Hence it is claimed by these latter
day authorities that rheumatism arises
in the stomach or through the stomach
and not in the kidneys, as some medical
authorities teach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets cure dys-
pepsia, reduce proteids to their natural
condition best taken up by the system
give strength to the blood, rest the
stomach and invigorate and renew the
gastric fluids, pancreatic juice and the
digestive organs in general

MUST TAKE EMPLOYEES
FROM ELIGIBLE LIST
Councilman from Eighth Ward Breaks
His Record by Advocating Measure
Favored by Civil Service
Commission

For the first time in his official life
Barney Healy, councilman from the
Eighth ward and the avowed champion
of the ''spoils'' system, openly adYo-
Gated a measure emanating from the
civil service commission.
Largely through his insistenee the
ordinance prepared at the instigation
of the civil service commission received
consideration and was sent to the
legislative committee.
This ordinance makes it unlawful for
any public official to appoint an en-
ploye to any position as long as there
are eilgibles on the civil service list.
This is already a charter provision, but
no penalty is attached for its VIOLA
ton.
Under this ordinance a penalty of
$40 to 800 fine is imposed, or a corre-
spending number Of days of imprison-
ment.
HeaIy's support of the measure was
not because he loved the civil service
more but the board of public WORKS
less. The basis for the ordinance is
the method the aqueduct commission
working under the direction of the
board Of public works, has sometimes
adopted to fill vacancies. especially for
stenographers. The aqueduct commits
sion has several times drawn on agen-
cies for stenographers while eligibles
were on the civil service list. II was
through such an action that w. r.
Ormsby, storekeeper for the aqueduct'
was summoned before the civil service
commission and a trial held to deter
mine whether or not he should be dis
missed.
Healy has a grievance against the
board of public works and especially
against D. K. Edwards. chief inspector,
because he does not always select his
street 1aborers from the Eighth ward.
Not all of Healy's constituents are
supplied with city jobs, wherefore the
raven-haired statesman raves.

CITY TO LEASE GROUND
TO HARVARD ACADEMY

The city will lease to G. f. Emery a
portion of Eighteenth street to square
out the campus of the Harvard Military
school.
Mr.. Emery has tried for about three
years to get possession of this strip of
land, asking that it be abandoned and
revert to him. Eighteenth street is not
cut through at this place, and in order
to continue the street a strip of land
of equal width of the portion asked by
Mr. Emery would have to be condemned
before the street could be opened.
1t is probable this street will be
opened at some time in the future. and
in order not to lose all rights to the
street easement the city refuses to
abandon the portion Mr.. Emery asks.
A rent of about 81 per month will be
charged if the ground is leased.

Protests and appeals on street work
and other public movements have be-
come SO numerous that when the coun-

times forced to adjourn until Tuesday
morning to continue it's business. This
was the case last Monday. The coun-
ell did not finish at o'clock Monday,
and was compelled to adjourn until 10

Until last summer morning sessions
were held, and the general public still
has the idea that the council meets
Monday morning. AS a result the cor
