COSTS DOLLAR
TO GET A DRINK
At SWEDISH BAR

STOCKHOLM, Aug. 2e.-Devotees
OF distilled liquors have fallen on
evil days in Sweden. Restriction az
ter restriction has been placed on
sales both over the bar and in bot
ties.
Since June 1 It has been impossible
to be served with any kind OF liquor
without an accompanying order for
a warm meal costing about 40 cents.
Even then no more than fifteen CEN
filters (about five fluid ounces) OF
liquor may be served in all, and not
more than a third of this may con-
sist OF the strong brandy which. in
Sweden, has from time immemorial
taken the place of the American pre-
prandial cocktail.
One result of the new order I'M
questionably has been a great waste
OF food, for countless meals are or
dered and either left untouched or
else slightly toyed with and mixed
with cigar and cigarette ashes by
careless people.
At the better class restaurants and
hotels restrictive meals" CORE
spending to the property sandwich"
OF the American cities, are served.
These consist generally OF one fried
egg. Before the recent change in
regulations, which prescribe Cook
ed, warm" meal, the restrictive
meal" was wont to consist OF an ap-
pie or a few grapes.
Drinking thus becomes an expen-
sive luxury. To obtain one whisky
and-soda, for instance, one pays, in
the better places, the equivalent OF
40 cents for his meal" the same
for whisky, IS more for q bottle OF
settler or soda, and q tip to the
waiter. The total amounts to more
than 81 at the present rate Of ex-
change.
The restrictions on the sale OF bot
tied goods for home consumption are
even less liberal They grant to the
privileged holders OF the "motbok"
(passbook) the privilege OF buying
two quarts OF spirits each three
months, making possible a homo con-
sumption OF little more than two
thirds of an ounce each day.

and landed several VANISHED punches

the patrol arrived, Prendergast got
her under control and started to lead
her to the wagon.

all over again. She broke away from
Prendergast's grasp, lodged into the
arms Of another policeman, fought,
scratched, and struggled. 1t took ten
minutes more OF strenuous work on
the part of the four cops" before she
was finally loaded into the wagon.
Stubborn to the last. she refused 20
give any name when she was SLATED"
at the police station and placed in
cell. At the apartment house it was
explained that the woman came there

F. A. Conkling is New Policeman
Auto Speeders Are to Be
Brought to Book. a.,

Geo. J. Long, city manager pro
tenn, has added another official to
the city's force-a much needed mo-
torcycle cop" F. A. Conkling
will officiate in this capacity, hav-
ing already been sworn in for duty.
People on the outskirts Of town es-
pecially are greatly annoyed by auto
speeders and complaints are frequent
regarding the breaking of the speed
law
Another infringement of the law
is the driving Of cars by minors, the
youngsters going to the sparsely set
tied parts OF town to practice their
skill in running machines. Several
evenings ago two minors were seen
racing south OH Superior street, each
vying with the other in exceeding
the speed limit.
Owing to the many complaints of
citizens it has been deemed wise to
appoint motorcycle officer and put
a stop to speeding before somebody
is seriously injured or killed by such
recklessness A few stiff fines will
put a quietus on the laW-breaking
auto and other vehicle drivers.

FIVE HUNDRED CLAY
WORKERS ON STRIKE
Two Webster City Factories Join in
Statement Concerning the
Present Situation.

For some time a large number of
clay workers of Webster county have

grievance, real or fancied, against
the various brick and tile plants in

company have signed the statement
in behalf of the industries they rep
resent. Following is copy:
About 500 men in Webster county,
formerly engaged in clay plants, are
now on strike. Most of these men
have families dependent upon them.
The strike, therefore, involves from
1000 to 5000 individuals in Web
ster county, and at a time when pa
triotism requires the least economic
