the explosion. was also seriously in
jured, but is recovering. The two

were putting their dynamite and
caps away for the night. Mr.. Fol-
kerts was removing a box OF the

Decision Hits Breweries

According to two decisions of the
supreme court rendered last Friday
breweries located in dry unit such
as Bellingham are prohibited from
making sale at the plant. and, al
though permitted to manufacture ant
deliver, they cannot make sales with
in such unit. This decision re-
verses Judge kellogg, who decided
in the superior court the now quite
famous brewery case.
Judge Chadwick dissents from the
second decision, and reviews the
history of the local option law, quo
ting from an address by Senator Fal
coner that the amendment as carri-
ed into law was expected by the leg
islators to permit sales to the local
trade in residences within dry terri
tory. Judge Chadwick claims that
the decision will simply result in the
establishment by the Bellingham
brewery of an office in Seattle where
orders from Bellingham may be
received and forwarded back 10
the brewery at Bellin CHAM so that
tie goods can be delivered to the
homes in that city.

OPERA REVIVAL THE
FASHION OF THE HOUR

The opening of the present sea-
son brings to our attention the fact
that We are a music-loving people.
Today America is showing an in
creased appreciation of the comic op-
eras of thirty years ago, and that
there is no doubt of the successful
issue of an extensive revival of old
operas has been proven by such
stars as DeWolf Hopper, Eugene
Cowles and Arthur Cunningham.
Nothing is to be more desired
than a return of these beautiful
masterpieces, "reminiscences of days
of romance and poetry They re-
mind the nearer of the joys of the
past and of his loss in now seeing
them so seldom.
The desire for novelty has led the
public, thus far. away from the op-
eras of the past. This same de-
sire is leading them back; thus does
the whirligig of Time bring its re-
venge. New productions do not
satisfy the finer emotions of the
present generation.
THE play-going and music-lovine
population of today owes debt of
gratitude to the producing man.

THE MOODY JURY.
May Have to Be New Venire to Get
One

Considerable time is being taken in
the selection of a jury to try Henry
Moody, charged with the murder of
Howard Morgan. Up to 3 o'clock this
afternoon no jurors had been definitely
accepted by both sides, and each side
was exercising it's privilege Of peremp-
tory challenge. It is expected it may
take the balance of the day in inpan-
cling the jury, and possibly another
Yenire will have to be called.
Moody, we'll dressed and carefully
groored, has occupied a seat just back
of his counsel all day. watching with
a great deal of interest the progress
of the selection of the men who will
hold in their hands his fate. The care
with which the jury is being picked is
believed to denote that the trial of the
case is likely to consume considerable
time. In defense the alleged bad char
acter of the victim is expected to be a
feature, and many character witnesses
for Moody. the Santa Fee fireman charg-
ed with the killing. will testify.
Morgan Howard was killed the even
ing of July 2, last, near his home at
Fourth and Lake streets. The killing
is admitted to have been by a gun in
the hands of Henry Moody. The man
had had trouble before, and Moody
declared after the killing that Howard
had insulted his wife besides making
threats toward him. After being shot
Howard lived q few minutes. Moody in
the meantime called up the police sta
ton to warn the officers Of the killing
and then went to the station and gave
himself up. He was liberated shortly
