W. p Montgomery. assistant attor-
rey general for Crawford county. who
has made good as special officer to
put the Jointists out Of business, does
rot seem to think that the Lindsay
matter Of dismissing thirty cases in
cherokee county is anything to make
a great pother about. He will dis
miss sixty suits in Crawford county
soon He has to do it. He figures
that If he gets through with 30 Der
cent of the cases he brings he is do
ing we'll He has brought some two
hundred suits and is letting sixty of
them go for want of convicting evil

eighty cases vet to try in court.

Attorney General Dawson has also
put a crimp in the enthusiastic county

TOrneN general says
It has been called to my attention that
equity sheriffs. cOnstables and police Of
ftcers in some parts Of the state in their
zeal for the enforcement of the prohibi-
tory law sometimes make raids on pri-
ate houses without search and seizure
warrants It is undeniabie that good
deal of petty selling does go on in private
houses, and some people in the cities
who have been identified with the LIQUOR
rattle on an extensive scale do use the
cellars of their dwelling houses to bestow
liquors when the police officers are UNI

Where it will be necessary to search pri-
gate houses without warrants are few,
and should only be undertaken in cases
% unusual provOcatiOn.-where there is
absolutely no doubt that the dwelling
house has been converted into a nuisance.
Unless the quantity of liquors captured in

large it will be of little evidentia-y value

Forty-Fourth Street One Of the Most
Remarkable IN Greater New York.
Where Great Rich Have Pleasure.

The clubhouse of Harvard and
Yale occupy opposite sides of the
street and close By are the Academy
OF medicine and the building occu-
pied BY the Bar association. Upon
the rolls OF these associations aud
the college clubs r to be found
the names of some OF the brightest
men in the nation, such as Theodore
Roosevelt. Elihu Root Joseph Choate
Paul d. Cravath. William Tfavers Je-
rome. and the most prominent med
zeal men in the country, men who
carr their fortunes by the practice of
their professions, judges. congress-
men, diplomats and statesmen who
r known all over the union.
In this street too is the home Of
the Lamba. Some Of them are wealthy
but r richer in brains than
in money though they spend the lat
ter when they have it with an opena
h~andedness equal Il that of any of
the milli0naires around them. The
City club where many of the import
ant reform movements that have in
huenced the political history of New
York have had their inception is To-
Gated in Forty-fourth street and Al
ma Delta club made up of members
of that collage fraternity.
At opposite ends of these two
short blocks in which is concentrat-
ed 81 much of the lavish expenditure
of wealthy New Workers are located
three of the most celebrated establish
ments in the country devoted to public
entertainment. AT the Broadway cor
G is the Hotel AstOr with its multi
tude of restaurants and private dim
ing rooms including the largest hotel
room in the world in which the great
est public dinners held in the city
takes place. Here, from beginning to
end Of the winter season, occurs a
long succession of dinners in which
the most prominent men in the cOun-
try participate as guests and speak
ers. Frequently a dozen of these din
ners r going ON at the same time
under one roof.
During the present season. Presi-
dent Taft, e~x4President Roosevelt, (
three OF the Justices of the Supreme
court and.scores Of other national
leaders of thought and action have
