ADVOCATE DANCE
| HALL INSPECTOR
license Fee of 500 Also Urged
by Committee of Com
mon Council.

Under the provisions of the new
lance hall ordinance which was ap-
proved by the license committee last
hight and which will find it's way to
the common council tomorrow night,
Every place within the city where
BANGING is conducted will be COM
PEELED to pay a yearly license fee of
800. The ordinance provides also for
the appointment of an inspector who
. shall have direct supervision over all
4 such places.
Originally the ordinance was to
cover only dance halls in which
liquor was sold, but an amendment
makes it necessary for the owners or
1essees of all places to take out a Ii
Snse. If finally passed upon tomor-
wv night the ordinance will become
effective on December /. At the out
set it was figured to make tho Ii
cense fee $500, but this was thought
to be too high.
The definitions given in the ordi-
nance of public dance hall and
Apublic dance are as follows:
'The term public dance half as
used in this ordinance shall be taken
0 mean any room, space or place in
which dancing Is carried on and to
which admission can be had either
with or without the payment of q
fee, or by the purchase. possession
or presentation of a ticket or token,
or In which a charge Is made for
caring for clothing or other property,
! located upon premises which are
licensed to sell liquors other than a
hotel of upwards of fifty bedrooms.
1.-The term public dance as used in
this ordinance shall be taken to mean
any dance to which admission can be
had by payment Of fee or by the
purchase. possession or presentation
of a ticket or token or in which
charge is made for caring for clothing
or other property, or any other dance
TO which the public generally may
gain admission with or without the
payment of a fee, and in which the
persons paying for admission partici-
I pate"
4 The ordinance calls for the observ-
ance of safety, sanitary and fire ordi-
nances and provides for the appoint
ment of one or more inspectors at a
salary of $1,000 per year. 1t orig
inally called for penalty of $50 to
$500 fine or imprisonment for not more
than thirty days or both for a vio-
lation of the terms of the ordinance.
but this was amended to fine of
from $25 to 800 or not more than ten
days in jail or both.
Alderman Pfeifer requested that
the draft of the ordinance covering
the licensing of bicycle tracks be re-
ferred back to him, as he wished it
redrafted before presenting it again
to the Common Council. The other
members agreed to this, and a new
form will probably be presented at
the next meeting.

CASTOR OIL is

a Remarkable Step Forward in

Pure, clesr castor oil. without taste of

The kellogg mills take away the nau-
seating TASTE, bu emoye none of the
good properties of castor oil.
AS Kellogg's Tasteless Castor OIL is
merely purified castor oil, it works bet
ter than the evil-tasting, evil-smelling
dose of the past, and does not upset the
stomach. Children take it easily.
KellogG's Tasteless Castor Oil has been
supplied 10 all druggists, not in bulk, but
in neat 25c and SOC bottles. 1t is neces-

Vermont Has More Cattle

The shipment of 2l53 mead of live stock
from 81. JOhnsbury to the Brighton,
Mass. market in a single week, was rec
ord breaker for that particular line Of
business, but the. question naturally arises,
how long can this Kind of d raid continue
and leave any sheep and cattle on the
Vermont hills?
The liberality with which this editorial
from the Brattleboro Reformer has been
quoted indicates a general apprehension
that the Vermont farmer may have sold
himself short on cattle. This fear is I'M
founded for the territory from which this
large shipment of cattle was secured has
stock enough left to produce as large or
larger shipments another season. The re-
cord business of the past month does not
indicate robbery of Vermont fields, but
rather healthy growth in the production
of live stock.

Vermont Farmers Fortunate

The farmers of Vermont are fortunate,
compared with those of Maine, where
three weeks of rain in October, followed
by freezing weather, have cost the farm
ers dearly, for all harvests of field crops
were delayed, while the fields were turned
into swafnps, and when the rain ceased
the cold wave came and so hardened the
ground that digging by the usual meth
DDS was impossible. In Aroostock Coun-
ty, Penobscot and all through central,
eastern and northern Maine thousands of
acres of potatoes remain in the ground,
and in many cases it is costing almost as
much to dig the crops as the yield is
worth. The extent of the loss cannot
yet be told, but some estimates place it
at more than 100000 and others say
that 81, 100000 would not cover the dam
age. From this it is evident that the
marketable yield OF Maine potatoes will
be very considerably reduced and that
prices will be higher than had been ex-
pected at the first of the season. Large
importations from Canada and Nova
Scotia are expected to keep the price
down. however.-Vergennes Vermonter.
