Very ThOUghtlesS,

Goddard had got as far as the
sixth hole and was all set for three
foot putt. Only those who have played
golf know what an important moment
this is and how necessary it is that ey-
erybody and everything should be
quiet. Just as he brought the head OF
the putter back to hit the ball young
caddie came running up, waving both
arms and yelling, Hey, Mr. Goddard
that is your factory on Long Island
on fire." Goddard watched his ball 90
wide of the cup by at least two feet
then turned to the caddie and asked.
Don't you know enough TO keep quiet
when a man is trying to putt AR
gonaut.

ANDALUS|A ENDS
SALOON TURMOIL
Village Board Passed New Ordinance
Limiting the Number of Tip
ping Houses to One.
TERMINATES FIGHT FOR TWO
After Months Squabble Four Trustees
Secure Legislation Preventing
Addition of Another Bar.

Tensity of the saloon situation IN
Andalusia was relieved last night when
the village trustees passed an ordl-
nance limiting the number of saloons
TO one. empowering the village board
to grant licenses and stipqlatlng that
only residents of Illinois are eligible
to receive license.
This action ends a fight of months
duration in which Joe Metzger OF Bu1-
falo, Iowa, attempted first to secure
the saloon license held by Henry Dyer,
and failing in that, made vain eHort
to secure consent of the board to open
a new saloon, guaranteeing to erect a
handsome building.
Four members of the village board
opposed Metzger's activities. Two
made a strenuous effort to grant him
the license. President Mcintyre OF the
board, who had no vote in the proceed
ings, favored Metzger's petition.
By a vote of to the board turned
down MetZger's petition two weeks ago.
The minority then looked up the VII
lage ordinances and located clause
which they interpreted gave the mayor
the power to grant the license. The
four members of the board hearing of
this employed ex-Mayor H. NJ. Schriver
of Rock Island as counsel. In the
meantime, through a mistake in his
vote, one of the four trustees who OPP
posed Metzger's application voted to
repeal an ordinance on the books
which fixed the number of saloons to
one for every 500 inhabitants. This
made it possible for two saloons to be
licensed in Andalusia.
Call Special Meeting.
The four members of the board, on
advice of their attorney, called a spe-
! cial meeting for last night, however
! before the mayor and the other mem
| bers had issued a license to Metzger.
The meeting was held, but Mayor Nc
| Intyre was absent The ordinance was
| then passed. 1t provides:
Board of trustees is empowered, au-
! thorized and given the sole power to
| grant saloon licenses.
! The number of saloons shall not be
| increased beyond the number licensed
in the preceding year and in no event
shall a license be granted to operate
more than one saloon for each 1,00O
inhabitants Of the village.
mo license shall be issued to any
person who is not a resident and citi-
zen of the state of Illinois"
Henry Dyer has conducted the only
saloon in Andalusia in years. He pays
$1,000 license fee. Metzger offered tc
pay the board $1,000 per year for ar
exclusive license in the village.
