stein, Fritze1 and Tearney, injunction
cases involving the question of paddock
ing the Friar's Inn and the Moulin Rouge,
well-known Chicago night-life centers. By
its decision refusing the writ of certiorari
petitioned for by the defendants, the de-
cison of the Circuit Court of Appeals of
this district stands.
As usual in the case of disposing of
writs of certiorari by the Supreme Court,
no lengthy decision was rendered. These
cases were originally heard by United
States District Judge Adam {. Cliffe, who
granted the injunction DEGREES in Deem
Der of last year.
The decision of the United States Cir
cult Court, which lays down the law in
this class of cases, is as follows:
In each of the above cases the district
attorney brought suit in the name of the
United States under Section q of the
Prohibition Act, to enjoin and abate a
common nuisance, as defined in Section
q of the Act. DEGREES were entered i'll
favor of the government and the principal
defendant in each case has appealed In
the three cases the complaints are sub
stantally alike, the evidence is to the
same effect, and the assignments of error
relied on are identical. The cases were
heard together and will be disposed of in
the same way. In 1916 the place COM
planned of is known as The Friar's Inn;
in 3847 as The Moulin Rouge; and in 3848
las Al Tearney's Town Club. The places
are public restaurants or cafes.
Tn each case the complaint AYERS that
the place is room and place where in
toxcating liquors are kept and possessed
in violation of Title II of the Prohibition
Act The afidavits filed with the COM
plainants are by proper averments made
part of them, and thus considered they
allege, in substance and effect, that the
appellants maintained the places; that on
reported occasions persons came there as
patrons of the places and produced, from
bundles or their pockets, bottles and TASKS
containing Intoxicating liquor; that wait
ers there supplied glasses and cracked ice
and ginger ale, drew the corks, and as
sisted the patrons in their consumption of
the liquors. In each case there is substan-
tial evidence to support the averments
:. of the compliments. In the Tearney
case the defendants offered no evidence,
and in two other cases the evidence of the
defendants consisted of their testimony
that they had not kept or sold liquor in
their places, and the testimony of patrons,
that at times not shown to be those COW
cred by the governments evidence, they
saw no liquor consumed there.
"The assignments of error in 1916, ques-
tioning the ruling of the court in admit
ting evidence with regard to a previous
raid on the place, require no serious con-
sideration here, because we may and do,
as the trial court doubtless did, disregard
it in coming to a conclusion upon the
merits.
"In each case the assignments of error
relied upon assert that the district court
erred in entering the decree in that said
decree is founded upon evidence 8. that
persons patronizing the restaurant con-
sumed or drank Intoxicating liquor brought

CLEARING SEEN
IN KNAPP CASE

NEW YORK, Dec. 12.-Mrs. Flor.
ence z. s. Knapp, former secretary

of the most serious charges made
against her in connection with the
1923 State census, in the report soon

Boeuf, jr., Moreland act commits
sioner, the New York American

woman to hold an important elective
office in New York State.

said, will hand his completed report
to Governor Smith on Saturday, De.
cember II, and the governor will re-
lease 1t to morning newspapers Of
Monday, December 10.
The cities census committee
charged that in connection with the
census $780, 900 was wasted"

Ignorance and lack of political ex-
perience, rather than illegal intent,
the American said, viii be found by
Commissioner lie Boeuf in thte
manner in which it was testified Mrs.
Knapp collected travel expenses
from the census fund.
There is little justification for suits
TO recover the $4,000 paid to rela-
tives OF Mrs. Knapp for census work,
according to the American article.
On the whole. the article read, the
commissioner will report that the
1925 State census was well taken and
Mrs. Knapp's work deserves favor

GOOD OLD SUMMER TIME

The human race needs the summer time in which to cool
off The beasts hibernate; they have no strenuous intellectual
life. They don't worry about possible fights, short crops of
berries, probable hard winters or opinions of their neighbors.
They get fat in summer and sleep through the winter.
But humans need to estimate to get the same rest-up from
their period of greatest activity. They have lived a thousand
years in one during the long winter. They have had their own
fears of the world, in addition to the multitudinous cares of their
own business and other interests. They have crowded on all
steam to get through their social engagements; they have work
ed hard at their amusements; they have been over-vexed an
overelated most of the time. Such is the tension of modern
life in winter time.
Forget it. There's a big wheat crop; cherries are cheap
the hens are laying. It's a big year, a fine year, a fat year. The
bands play dreamy music; listen and don't think. The sun is
bright, the big flies are buzzing; it is a drowsy time. The mood
of nature is right. Without the relaxation of summer the race
would go stark mad. Let no man condemn himself for longing
for vacation. 1t were better for us to see to it that every last
human being whose brain has run hot with the friction and the
strain of living in days like these, should be guaranteed his
period of rest and forgetfulness.

In YELLOWSTONE PARK
WILD ANIMALS PLENTIFUL

NL
The wild animals of Yellowstone
selves more conspicuous this season
than ever before. Although the
bear is looked upon as one of the
great attractions of the Yellowstone
and may always be seen along the
roads or at the special feeding
grounds, the shyer animals that US
ually seek the higher ranges in
the summer season seem to be stay
ing closer to the main highways of
the park. Many park visitors re-
port seeing mother elk and their
calves and a number have seer
baby deer. Moose are also report
ed plentiful, scarcely a day passing
without some tourist reporting that
he has seen a splendid bull or a
COW n her calf.
OF our there are special sight
seeing trips and on these one may
seek out the wild life of the park,
gaining perhaps the best results
from a hike, or a horseback trip
conducted to Speciman Ridge from
Camp Roosevelt. in the northeast
section of the park. In this region
wild animals may always be found.
Parties taking these trips recently
have reported seeing antelope. elk
and mountain sheep. Perhaps the
reason for the super-abundance of
wild animals in this section lies in
the fact that Camp Roosevelt is not
on the regular stopping schedule
for the yellow buses of the trans
p%ortations line and the tourist is
apt to pass it by. In this rather
quiet spot, however. those who are
out for a real rest and vacation
stop for several days to fish the
rivers and explore the mountains
and forest trails near the camp.

FACULTY ACTION HELPED
CRANE DECIDE FOR UNI.

OF the several important factors
which entered into the recent de-
cision of DR.. A. G. Crane. president
decline the chancellorship of the
University of Nebraska and remain
in Wyoming, a resolution of the
University Faculty, passed by unan-
imous vote and addressed to the
university board of trustees, car
ried much weight according to Mr..
F. A. Holiday, president of the
board. Mr.. Holiday believes that
while the fair-minded attitude of
the board in dealing with the mat
ter and the support accorded DR..
Crane in the past by the student
body and friends of the university
throughout the state were also very
influential, it was the resolution of
the faculty, an action which was
purely voluntary and spontaneous
on the part of his fellow workers
that touched the president very
deeply. The resolution came at a
meeting called by Dean Justus
Soule, vice president of the univer-
sity and a member of the university
faculty for the past forty years,
and stated that "Dr. Crane is bet
ter qualified to continue his work
than anyone else could possibly be-
1t read.
To the Board of Trustees of the
University of Wyoming:
We, the faculty of the university
of Wyoming, in a meeting called

Therefore, do resolve, that we
urge the board of trustees of the
University to consider with all pos

THE OLD PARLoR

Somebody has walked up all at once to the fact that the old
paror is gone. Not only here in America but in London and
all over England and almost everywhere in the Western world
And the queer thing about it is that nobody seems to have seen
it go or going. Yesterday it was the core, the heart, the
arcanum, the central sanctum of every fun-fledged house. To-
day it is no more. Along with the old room of state, the
company headquarters where the family put it's best foot for
ward and stood the horsehair furniture around in every solemn
posture of the very primnest propriety, there was the drawing
room, too. A parlor and drawing room together lifted any
house fortunate enough to possess them clear out of the com
mon and gave them caste and rank and glory. If so much
architectural grandeur were still further buttressed in relief by
a sitting room, dining room and perhaps a first-floor den, there
was nothing more needed of mortal distinction.
And now, complain certain elderly romancers, dreaming of
times past, paror and drawing rooms have gone out and nobody
saw them go. Of course, the explanation is very simple. In
all the old houses where paror and drawing layout remains the
same, a new fashion of use and enjoyment has swept in and
obliterated the old boundaries. Families gradually got to living
stricted parts of it and barring the rest from use except on
state occasions. In the new houses the parlor was simply for
gotten and every room made for daily use.
In the beginning the parlor was intended for use. 1t was
the part of the house where the family was to have its private
life and pleasure and comfort, safe from every intrusion. No
body has ever told just how it got away from that simple in
tention and became the formidable and formal and stuffy and
%forbidding thing it came to be. In these latter days 1T has
succumbed for the very good reason that houses have shrunk
to the actual necessities, and the old-time spaciousness minister
ing to pride has been outlawed by that master economist known
as H, G, L.
Tho Iaroar q ans hat the less he talks through it.
