ASK BAN ON new LIQUOR
Licenses DURING WAR

In the Court Of General Sessions
yesterday afternoon, consideration Of
the remonstrsnces on the part of the
Law and Order Society against appli-
cations for liquor licenses for John
w. Chapple. liquor merchant at No.
1OS West Seventh street; Vito Mer-
chant. at No. 701 Scott street, and
Frank P. Nobis. at No. sO2-o4 Mar
ket street, formerly Ainscow's restau-
rant, occupied most of the session.
Numerous witnesses we're heard for
and against the granting of the IL
censes. In the case of Nobis, David
Snellenburg, William B. Megear and
Edward R. Pusey all testified they
thought granting of a license was
necessary for the proper service Of
patrons Of the restaurant, and that
they considered Mr.. Nobis a proper
person TO be granted such a license.
The court reserved decision Ia all
the cases. They may be decided to-
morrow.
Horace Eastburn, for the Law and
Order Society, asked the court for a
rule that no additional liquor licenses
should be granted IN Wilmington
during the period OF the war and the
court directed the matter should be
presented in chambers.

Sometimes character Is confused
with reputation. The latter IS what

what one is AS used IN the highest

no man can safely command who has

An essential element Of true char
