An appendix turned to lime was the
Unusual discovery Of the surgeons who

In the October term of the district
ourt petition was filed asking that
IN injunction be granted against John
arr. of Planfield. who conducts a sa-
con at that place. Evidence was heard
n the last day of the term and the
arguments We're made at Charles City

took the matter under advisement
Tuesday he delivered his opinion
which was to the effect that no evil
dence had been introduced showing
that the law had been violated except
that the saloon was not situated on n
business street and the injunction was

and the denying of the injunction
greatly pleases the majority of the peo-
pie of that place.
