declaring that Every time a man
takes an experience from his mind
and shapes it into an intelligent
form, Independent from the chaotic

work of art is done, as the human
mind Is ever craving to keep pace
with it's experiences and to SET
them forth in an intelligent man.

cause Lincoln is the supreme ex'
ample of the hero as a public lead

ing TranSom to Invade
Private Office.

Magistrate Simpson in the Centre
Street Court to-day bitterly excori-
ated the police for climbing over a
transom to invade a private office
in search for whiskey, discharged the
defendant and declared that in his
opinion the Mullan-Gage law is con-
trary to the National and State Con
situations
The defendant was James Solarl
who formerly had licensed saloon al
No, . Reade Street. The place is
now a restaurant.
Policeman Alex Malley Of the Sec
ond Inspection District testified that
he went there yesterday afternoon
found the place closed, and proceeded
to gain entrance by climbing over
the transom. He went TO the man
ayers Office and says he found nine
bottles Of whiskey. Then he arrested
SOLAR.
when will you policemen under
stand" said Magistrate Simpson
warmly, that an office or a home
should be sacred and not entered
without due warrant of law? Some
of the methods used by the police in
making liquor arrests are outrageous
and were recently commented upon
ably by The New York World.
81 think the Mullan-Gage Law IS
contrary to the Constitution Of the
United States and the Constitution II
the State of New York. I would
gladly give up the eight years I have
yet to serve as a City Magistrate to
be able to sit on the bench OF the
United States for one day TO pass
final judgment on this law.
"A few days ago a man died when
the police rushed into the place where
he was employed. believing he had
whiskey there. I think the Volstead
Act IS responsible for his death. The
law was passed while two millions OF
our soldiers were in Europe, and l am
positive that the majority of the citi-
zens of this State are OF posed to the
Mullan-Gage law, which is the cause
of these disgraceful acts"
George Curtis, formerly Assistant
United States Attorney, appeared as
counsel for Solari and moved that the
case be dismissed The motion was
at once granted.
