Federal Judge Woodrough Of Oma-

that prohibition officers are not civil
officers and are without lawful au-
thority to serve bench warrants. The
Judge sustained a motion by counsel

ENGLAND'S ONLY GEYSER

England at last has an active vol
cano. And Londoners and others are
cheerfully paying l shilling pence
to witness it in eruption. The volcano
is one of the exhibits of the New Zea-
land section of the British Empire
Exhibition at Wembley Park, and is
an extraordinarily faithful reproduc-
ton of the Rotorna Volcano in that
Dominion. Three or four eruptions
daily delight spectators, and there
are continuous pools of boiling mud,
clouds of steam and a geyser kissing
never ending columns into the air.
Demonstrations are given how one
can cook food in the boiling pools,
boil eggs for breakfast and wash
clothes without having to pay a gas
bill.
