the deepest sympathy with the bo
reaved brothers and sister to whom
he was all that a true and noble
brother could be.
A Little Kxritmnt.
A chimney burning out in the Wa
terman block this morning caused
considerable excitment owing to the
Immense volume of smoke which
poured out of it, the smoke settling
to the ground In Main street and
obscuring vision for several minutes.
For a little while it looked as if a
conflagration was about to break out
but eventually the flue burned out
and no damage resulted.

For the many kindnesses shown
our beloved brother, Victor Ander
son during his illness and death, w
desire to express our Bincere thanks
Particularly do we wish to thank the
members of the Fraternal Order of
Eagles and the fellow workmen of

ance and their beautiful floral re
membrances and to assure them of

Dr. Rickard't Funeral Will Oc
cur Wednesday Afternoon.
The last advices from Weeping
Water, where Dr. E. T. Rlckard was
killed yesterday morning In an auto
mobile accident, fall to throw any
additional light on the disaster. As
was stated in the Journal, there was
no one with the unfortunate man
when the accident happended and
all that could be gleaned In regard
to It was what the ground in the
vicinity showed. According to the
evidence as shown by the ground,
Dr. Rlckard had been running his
machine at a fair rate of speed and
one wheel had gotten Into a rut In
the road. Apparently, he had tried
to turn the machine out but was
unable to do so, until a stone was
struck which caused the nachine
to turn over. It rolled over one and
a half times, pinning the doctor
underneath. He was almost instant
ly killed it is believed, as there was
no evidence of a struggle.
The funeral will be held tomor
row (Wednesday) afternoon at 2:30
from the Methodist church in Weep
ing Water, and daubtless a number
of friends and acquaintances from
this city will be In attendance.
The deceased was a member

"BiK LI" Takes a Tumble.
"Rig Liz," the big switcher which
does night sen ice in the Burlington
yards and on the hill, this morning
was run up to the shops after the
night's work was over and run upon
the old fashioned turntable at the
back shops. The engine was too
heavy for the table which is mounted
on a pivot tapering to the ends of
the table and when the weight of
the engine was upon them the ends
gave way. The engine, No. 3001, Is
one of the heaviest in the company
service and was not built for the
lighter tables. A force of men with
tools was busy this morning getting
"Liz" off her perilous perch.

The Eight O'clock Closing Law
Must Be Enforced.
The daylight saloon law Is upheld
by the supreme court in an opinion
filed in the case of Frank Dlnuzzo
of Omaha vs. State. Judge W. B.
Rose wrote the opinion of the court.
It overrules the objections of' the
plaintiff ln error that the daylight
saloon law violates the constitutional
provision that no bill shall contain
more than one subject, that the act
failed to amend city charters relat
ing to the control of the liquor traf
fic and that it is unconstitutional be
cause it imposes a fine of $100 and
a forfeiture for violation.
Dlnuzzo, an Omaha saloon keep
er, was convicted of selling intoxi
cants after 8 p. m. and his license
was revoked by the Omaha fire and
police commission. The syllabus is
as follows:
1. Chapter 82 of the session laws
of 1909, an act declaring by Its title
a purpose to end section 14, chap
ter GO, compiled statutes of 1907,
and making it unlawful to sell or
give away intoxicating liquors after
8 o'clock p. m., and before 7 o'clock
a. m., is germane to the amended
statuU which prohibited the sale of
Intoxicating liquor on days of elec
tion and on Sundays, and the Amend
ment did not violate the e-onstitu
tional provision that "np bill shall
contain more than one subject and
the same shall, bt clearly expressed
ln its title."
i. Ia enacting chapter 82 of the"
session laws of 1909, an act amend
ing section 14, chapter 50, compiled
statutes of 1907, by inserting there
in a provision making it unlawful
to sell or give away intoxicating li
quors' on days of election and on
Sundays, tbe legislature did not
amend other laws delegating' to
munlclpllties the power to regulate
the traffic In intoxicating liquors,
within the meaning of the constitu
tional provision that "no law 'shall
be amended unless the new act con-,
tains the section or sections ' so
amended and the section or sec
tions so amended shall be repealed'
3. Section 14, chapter 50y com
piled statutes, making it unlawful
for a licensed saloonkeeper to sell or
give away intoxicating liquors after
8 o'clock p. m., and before 7 o'clock
a. m. Is not Invalidated by reason of
a provision therein which authorizes
a fine of $100 and a forfeiture of
the license upon conviction of the
license for violating the law. '
The court lolds that the power
to license, regulate or prohibit traf
fic in intoxicating liquors, as dele
gated to cities by section 2G, chap
ter 50, compiled statutes, and by
other enactments, Is subject to the
limitations and restrictions Imposed
by general law. That this was the
intention of the legislature appears
on the face of the statute containing
the grant.
