aBOOtleggers SeWed Up"

There is CONSERVATION and great
wailing of disgust by the bootleg
gers over the decision of Judge John
r. Land on the motion OF District
Attorney Mabry, whose contention
is that appeals from the City Court
in criminal cases involving fines
over $500 must be taken to the Su-
preme Court and not to the District
Court.
This question has been given full
and impartial consideration by
Judge Land, whose decision sus-
tains the plea of District Attorney
Mabry.
In keeping with this decision,
whose principle has been upheld by
the Supreme Court of Louisiana,
bootleggers convicted in the City
Court can not appeal to the District
Court if the fine exceeds $500, but
may be taken to the Supreme Court
for review onla on points of law.
| This will block the game of the
bootleggers who, when convicted in
| the City Court, have appealed to
the District Court where re-hear-
ing of the proceedings Of the city
tribunal has been rehearsed, with
the very frequent absence of ma
terial witnesses for the State who
have been induced to skip. In al
such cases the law-breakers have
evaded9the penalty, as a conviction
was impossible without the all-lm-
portant and essential evidence OF
the State witnesses who have moi
been in reach for such trial.
The motion to dismiss, for which
District Attorney Mabry is to be
commended, was in the case Of
Charles Monsour, convicted CT the
violation of the prohibition law, anG
sentenced to pay a fine for the State
of $500 and serve six months on the
road, and in defaul six months ad-
ditiOnal.
In having secured this decree DIS
trict Attorney Mabry has made i
possible to obtain the enforcement
of law against the bootleggers ant
other defiers of law, whose reliance
for escape has been on appeal to the
District Court, where, as rule, ths
material witnesses were not in evi.
dence, and the law-breakers have
escaped we'll desrvd punishmnt. Be.
sides, it will lrelieve the Distric
Court of the re-hearing of trial oyer

exerted some mesmeric influence upon

He walked on, skirtlng the hollow,
and moving forward through streets
where old houses brooded in over
grown gardens.
That part of California Street which
crested the hill was but a few blocks
beyond him. and before his mind
would acknowledge 1t, his feet had
borne him that way. Hc thought only
to pass the Cannon house, to look at
its windows, and see their lights. AS
1t rose before him, huge, pale mass
checkered with shadows, the longing
to see 1.-THE outer shell that hid his
hearts desire-passed into keener,
concentrated agitation that seemed to
press out from his soul like cry to

The porch yawned black behind pill
lars that in the daytime we're painted
wood and now looked like temple col
umns wrought in marble. Domtnick's
glance, sweeping the lines of yel-
lowed windows, finally rested on this
cavern of shadow, and he approached
stealthily, as a robber might. his body
close to the iron fence. Almost be-
fore his eyes had told him, he knew
that woman was standing there,
leaning against the balustrade that
stretched between the columns. A
climbing rose spread in nothing OF
darkness, over the wall beside her.
Here and there it was starred with the
small white faces of blossoms. AS
the young man drew near she leaned
over the balustrade, plucked one OF
the blossoms. and, slowly shredding
the leaves from the stem, stretched
out her hand and let them fall, like a
languid shower OF silver drops, to the
grass.
She bent over the balustrade to look
at them, and in doing SO, her eyes
encountered the man below.
For moment they looked at each
other without speaking. then she said
her voice at the lowest note that
would reach him:

CHAPTER XIV.
The MoonIlqht Nipht.


A few nights after this, there was
full moon. Dominick, walking home
from the bank, saw It at the end OF
the streets vista, large, yellowish-
pink disk floating up into the twilight.
The evening was warm, like the early
summer in other climates; and Dom
mick, walking slowly and watching
the great yellow sphere deepening in
color as 1t swan majestically upward
thought of evenings like this in the
past when he had been full of the
Joy of life and had gone forth in the
spirit Of love and adventure.
The determination to accept his fate
which had been with him on his re-
turn from Antelope had of late been
shaken by STRINGS of rebellion. Up
lifted by the thought Of his love for
a woman hopelessly removed from
him, but who would always be a lode
star to worship reverently and to
guide him up difficult paths, he had
been able to face his domestic trag-
edy with the high resolution of the
martyr But this exalted condition
was hard to maintain in the friction
of daily life with Berny.
Tonight, the period Of i'll humor
seemed over. Berny was not only once
again her animated self. she was al.
most feverishly garrulous.
Fearful of angering her, or, still
worse, of arousing her suspicious,
Dominick bore her talk with all the
