ance agency license tax problem that
was argued in the Dauphin county
courts on Tuesday. The same pro-
position is involved in the life in
surance question as in the typewriter
problem, they contend.
The opinion which was handed
down by Additional Law Judge Nc
Carrell in the Smith Premier case in
cidentally is a decided victory for City
Solicitor d. S. Seitz. 1t was based
on the city's effort to collect license
taxes for the years 1905-06-07-0S. The
collections were based on the provis-
ions of an ordinance passed in 1903
which stipulated that the purpose of
ordinance was for general revenue"
The language was taken from the
act of 1889, but this was amended in
1901 in such way as to strike out the
clause for general revenue purposes" !"
The fact that the ordinance specified
for general revenue" in violation of
the language of the amended legisla-
tive act was held to class the meas
ure as police regulation rather than
a general revenue ordinance accord
ing to the typewriter company. The
difference lay in the fact for a police
regulation only such fee can be
charged as Will pay for the conduct
of the office of collector, etc. City
Solicitor Seitz contended that the
clause "for revenue purposes" was in
advertently allowed to remain in the
city ordinance and that it was OBJ
vious that the city meant to levy an
ordinance for that purpose.
Allows Verdict Appeal.-In a brief
order handed down to-day the Dau-
phin county court allowed the appeal
from Alderman Hoverter's judgment
in the case of the Douglas Co-opera-
tive Investment Company against w.
Fl. Craighead, and the other officers
of the company publishing the "Har-
risburg Verdict" The sum of $500
was involved and the Verdict attor-
neys contended that the alderman had
no jurisdiction in the case.

ATHLETICS WORLD
PENNANT D|SGUSTED
Just Wouldn't UnfurI When It Felt
So Like a Wet
Hen

Philadelphia, July 16.-Scenes sur
rounding the raising of the Athletics
fourth worlds championship pennant
yesterday were about as gay and
blithesome as an execution.
The small incident of playing two
games with the Browns had to, be
abandoned because of the rain.
Even while the players were march
ing to the pole with a band of wet
and miserable musicians trying hard
to play some inspiring piece ahead,
Shibe Park looked like a freshet had
struck it.
The players and musicians had to
pick their way through the wet turf
and avoid the lagoons and bogs that
beset their path. Captain Ira Thomas
of the Athletics, and Manager Branch
Hickey, of the Browns, elevated the
muslin banner to the top. Even the
pennant was disguised and refused
to unfurl. 1t wrapped its folds around
the pole and felt just like wet hen.
1t was the third straight day that
rain spoiled baseball plans, and the
Mack schedule is all twisted out of
gear. In addition. there is a financial
loss of several thousand dollars which
Messrs. Shibe and Mack will have to
assume.
Flag-raising day had been extern
sively advertised, while much money
was spent for music and fireworks.
Under the circumstances a three-day
postponement, which includes an un-
usual celebration. cuts a hole in the
clubs bank account that will take
it some time to repair.

objection against the liquor traffic gen.
orally and that in point of economics,
morals and law and order the grant
ing OF any liquor license would be
detrimental to the community.
The liquor men contended that it
was an abuse of judicial discretion for
Judge Criswell to refuse all the appIi-
cations on the sale ground of nom
necessity, based exclusively upon the
conclusion that there is a growing
sentiment against the sale of liquor.
The Legislature, they maintained, was
the proper body to decide what weight
should be given to such sentiment,
and that no judge had any right to
form his own conclusion.
Judge Rice, who goes into a long
review of the liquor license question,
said that the decree of the lower court
was not made arbitrarily or solely
upon his own conclusion of the grow
ing sentiment against the liquor busi-
mess.

Other Gases


Ihe other cases were in the action
of the l. ID. West VS.. A r. Hanna and
the Washington township election ap..
peal.
The former was an action brought
by Isaac ID. West against A. F. Hanna
to recover a certain property near
Lykens which was desired for right of
way and in which it was alleged that
the question of title was more or less
vague. Judge McCarrell issued bind
ing instructions to the jury to return
a verdict for Hanna and this was ap-
pealed. The decision of the court be-
low was reversed and the issue directed
to be submitted to trial by jury.
The Washington township case grew
out of the objection to the election
whereby the question of the division of
the township was raised because of the
alleged Illegal form of the ballot The
Dauphin County Court decided that
the election was legal and the appel
late court sustained this view.

he was thrown over the fender and
through the wind shield. He was
picked UP and taken to the hospital.

YOUNG men TRY
TO get in FREE
Youngsters Attempting to Break
Into Exposition Building
Will Get in Wrong.

There are a number of young men
in this city who are very liable to get
into trouble if they persist in their
present methods of trying to gain ad-
mission to the Exposition building,
for the purpose of evading the pay
ment Of admission. For three straight
nights the police have had trouble
with these boys, youngsters who evil
IDENTIFY do not know that they are COM
hitting a p%entientiary offense. On
two occasions they have climbed to
the roof of the annex, and with wire
cutters have removed the screens in
m attempt to enter the building. The
police have foiled their efforts in both
cases, letting them off with a repri-
mand. In the third case, two young
men, employed in positions of trust
in business houses in this city, were
caught just as they entered the base
ment, having pried a window open.
They fell into the arms Of the police
and were marched to the front FL
trance, where they were allowed to
deposit so cents each for admission.
Quite a few of these boys are from
good families and their action has
