Scores of pretty Americas girls, all

Sumter's roads are in prime condi-

In some sections of Sumter the cot

CAN'T OVERTAX TAXIMETER
Justice Bischof Holds City Cab
Ordinance Invalid.

Justice Bischoff rendered a decision yes
terday granting to the Universal Taxi
meter Cab Company an interlocutory in
junction restraining the city from enforc-
ing the ordinance which taxes vehicles car
rying taximeters at a higher rate thar
those without them and fixes for them
lower schedule of fares.
The plaintiff complained that the ordi-
nance To which it objected was contrary
70 the spirit Of the Constitution Of the
United States. in that it denied the com
pany the equal protection of the laws, as
guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment
Justice Bischoff favored this view. He said
in his decision:
THAT the complaint is well founded
seems an irresistible conclusion. Nothing
in the ordinance as amended points to any
Just cause TOR any differentiation between
vehicles equipped with taXimeterS and those
not so eQulpped. Both classes are en-
ployed in idenJically the same business

for wear, placed a value of S48l on the

TEN "SHOOFLY" MEN ON JOB
Return to Old Plan the Result of
Many COMPLAINTS Made.

CONSERVATION reignS in certain ranks OF
the police force since the announcement
that the 'shoofly" men are once more
abroad. The average patrolman has a dis
like for the ''shoofiy,' but the men who
have been neglecting their beats and taking
things easy are appalled, at the idea that
they may be disciplined for their shortcom-
ings.
Commissioner Baker admitted yester-
day that ten special men were the
watch throughout Manhattan. Commits
sioner Bingham, when he placed at the
head of the Police Department, promptly
abolished the ''shoOfy" squad which had
been organized by Commissioner McAdoo.
Commissioner Baker, too. frOwned upon
the practice of sending out special men
to watch the actions of patro1men on beat.
There have been many complaints lately
however. that patrolmen left their beats at
night, especially in districts where rob
berries have occurred II has also been
brought TO the attention of Mayor Gaynor
and acting Mayor Mitchell that the police
seemed to disregard entirely the prevalence
of soliciting by women on the streets. In
view Of these charges and the pressure
brought to bear upon him. Commissioner
Baker has selected ten men for "shooty''
duty.

COURT ENJOINS VESTRYMEN
Locked Out Rector to Preach
Until Dispute Is Settled.

Through a court injunction the vestry-
men Of St. Andrews Protestant Episcopal
Church, at Fourth avenue and 5Oth street.
Brooklyn, have been prevented from inter-
fering with the discharge of his duties by
the Rev. William n. Ackley, the rector.
On Sunday the church was closed against
him and he had to conduct services in the
street. His lawyer, William H Ford. Of
No. 2 Rector street, Manhattan, yesterday
obtained an injunction, copies of which
were served on each of the vestrymen and
on each warden of the church. This order,
returnable by Monday, will prevent the
vestrymen from replacing Mr. AckIey with
another minister in the pulpit on Sunday.
DR. George Chaffee junior warden of the
church, said:
Il suppose We'll be unable to keep Mr..
Ackley locked out of the church on Sun
day, nor shall we, I suppose, be able to
hold our regular services in the church.
We have three ministers in mind who will
be able to take Mr.. Ackley's place just al
soon as the matter of the injunction has
been settled. Our church is a corporation,
and we, as vestrymen, are trying to save
1t from financial wreck Mr. Ackley should
have been discharged years ago; only SEN
t,ment has kept him here. His ability as
rector has been Shown by the fact that he
has been able to draw here a congregation
of from twenty to fifty. Many of our lead
ing Episcopal families in this parish have
refused to attend the services so long as
Mr. Ackley remains. We shall not again
place the matter in the hands of Bishop
Burgess; we shall manage it ourselves
The vestrymen and wardens may base
their action on the ground that the church
as a private business corporation has the
right to dismiss its rector, who simply
has filled his place as a paid employee of
the corporation"
The vestry of St Andrews seems to
be ignorant of the canoncal law" said
Bishop Burgess. 1T has not yet presented
charges in accordance with that law. Mr..
Ackley is rector of st. Andrews Church,
and until he has been separated from it
in regular order he must remain its
rector. He is absolutely in charge of his
church just as 1 am in charge of my house.
Somebody might succeed in locking me out
of my house. but does that change the fact
that I am in charge of it,

CHINESE TO SEVER QUEUES
Big Dinner Will Mark Action OF
Prominent Merchants.

When the rest of their country1nen are
celebrating the full moon festival on sat
urday Ching Pah Chow. president OF the
CT .nese Public Chamber. and other lead
ing Chinese merchants of this city Will
cut off their queues, and thus sever the
last sign of superstition attached to their
persons.
When Prince Tsai Tao was here. severai
months ago on his tour around the world
to study army organization and problems
a delegation of Chinese merchants recon-
mended to him that the soldiers should
wear no queues and should dress ike
Europeans The prince thought so well of
the suggestion that he cut his on while
travelling in Europe.
The prince has also recommended to the
throne that the cutting of queues should
be uniform throughout the Chinese army,
and has received a favorable reply from
the Prince Regent. who is expected 10
direct all men and officers to discard the
tails they have worn from childhood TO the
present day.
Now the already queueless members OF
the Chinese Public Chamber insist that
the rest OF the members of the chamber
should no longer carry their unsanItary
tails behind them. Seeing the reasona BILE
ness of this demand those members who
have queues will cut them off, on condition
that an extra big dinner be provided for
them by other members of the chamber. to
celebrate their departure from the old TO
the way of dressing their han
