Sec. 72, Chap. 18, p. 248 Laws of 1901, Charter of City, provides that the city council may revoke, drug- gists permits at pleasure, and pro- vldes that the Bale of liquor may be prohibited or restrained hv ornl- nance. The city council seems to have a legal discretion in the matter of granting and revoking druggist's permits. The court suggests that the council proceed at once to pass a Droner ordinance lavln dnwn th ro. qulrements for a druggist's permit and the grounds for revocation. Druggists should not sell lntoxicat- ing liquors except on prescription of a regular physician, and adequate punishment for violation of the or- dlnance should be provided. Under the police power of the state deleeated to tlm rltv ih -it council has ample power to regulate or prohibit the sale of intoxicating liquors by drnggists in the city. If the council will do its duty in this respect cases like this need not arise. It appears from the record that no druggist In the city has complied with the law reauirlnar rnnnrta nf Bales of Intoxicating llnuors to hn tiled with the clerk.

Ebersole passed into rest yesterday. For months past her folks and her many friends had despaired of her life and the best physicians had passed upon her case with no encouragement, so the announce ment of her death came to them as no surprise. The deepest sympathy exists in this community for the be reaved husband and children who lose in her a most devoted wife and mother. And the same smypathy extends to the brothers, sister and father of this most excellent woman.

She was a woman of the greatest woman- y vlrtue8 and the best qualities. Of h h Chl.l8tlan character, of lofty aims, she had had made herself one Lf the most loved of women in the cltv. In her death the community loses one of Its best and most use- ful members and her many friends suffer an irreparable loss. Mrs. Ebersole was born ln this city on December 16, 1865, and spent her elrlhnnd in this rltv. ristne to woman's proudest domain here among the many friends who are left behind. She met and was wooed by Mr. Ebersole in this city and on June 11. 1896. she entered unon married life with him in this city. Of the union two children were born, both of whom survive he&. Their ages are 14 and 6 years respectively. She 18 also survived by her father, George Kroehler, and four brothers and one slBter, the brothers being Louis, An- drew, George and John Kroehler, and the sister belnf Mrs. Susie Neu man who lives in Chicago. The mother and one sister of the deceas ed have preceded her to the better land several years since. The funeral of this most esteemed and beloved lady will take place to- morrow (Tuesday) afternoon from ie imsuau inurcu m i;ou o iiwn 11.. ii i 1 1 i u A. n.OA i. Rev. W. L. Austin of the Methodist chruch will hava charge of the serv ices.

The eclipse of the moon last night attracted a great deal of attention and it was an excellent one, the night being highly favorable for observing it. The eclipse started about 8:30 and the moon entered the shadow of the earth about 9:30. The totality commenced at a few moments after 11 p. m., and continued almost to 12 o'clock, being central at ll:30t. Contrary to expectation the moon was not darkened nearly as much as expected, it shining with a bright cop per color which attracted much atten tion. Many remained up until late in the night to witness the entire pheno mena. Those who saw the eclipse also got a good view of Halley's comet which shone in the west, being a sort of hazy, nebulous star. There was a faint tail visible stretching upward toward the zenith for about fifteen or twenty degrees from the nucleus. The comet was a distinct disappointment to most people and it did not nearly show up as bright as it did when in the east. However, many watched it with a great deal of curiosity. It is a little south of west and about one third of the way up the heavens. It Is expected to be visible for probably ten days or so but to gradually grow smaller and finally disappear. Many hoped to see more of the comet after the moon had entered the eclipse but this did not have much effect as the comet had set before the eclipse became total. The combina tion of an eclipse of the moon with the comet ln the heavens is something rather unusual and all over the world scientists watched the two phenon- menons with great interest. Little new was learned, however, it is be lieved as no unusual characterlsts de veloped during the evening and night. Secures Merited Election.

Clayton Rosencrans has recently been making a large number of im provements at his barber shop in the Hotel Riley and now has a shop which will compare favorably with any in this part of the country. While he has not made all the improvements he intends, he has gotten a great many of them in shape and the shop puts up a neat and attractive appear ance. He has had two fine French plate glass mirors put in, one on each side of the room. That which the chairs face is a large, handsome panel glass fifty-four Inches square in sections. It is a very ornamental glass and makes a wonderful im provement in the shop, both as to light and as to neatness. On the other side of the room the mirror is twenty-two Inches in height and four teen feet ln length, both being set in handsome quartered oak frames. In addition to these ha ban also nut in two new chairs of the latest model and design. These chairs have slid ing seats and the arms remain stat ionary. The seat is or morroco while the woodwork is of oak in the same coloring with the mirrors. The chairs are pronounced by those fa miliar with such things as among the finest and most up to date manu factured. In addition to these there are a number of other Improvements which altogether result in making the shop the best one any city of this size has in the state. By keep ing in the front rank of live business men Mr. Rosencrans has helped very largely ln promoting the welfare of local business Interests and his en terprise deserves the success which it has attained. Wanted Unique Action. Judge Archer had a peculiar mo tion offered him by A. N. Sullivan this morning which he declined tc file. Sometime since Charles H. Bailey was placed under arrest for disturbing the peace at the home of his sister, Mrs. Harriet Garrison. He was brought down town by De puty Sheriff Manspeaker and Chief of Police Ralney, and on the way down he was 6truck by the deputy for some language which he used teward the officer. After being down town he was arraigned before Judge Archer and entered a plea of guilty to the disorderly conduct charge, Judge Archer assessing him the minimum fine of $1 and costs This he paid and was released. Af terwards he concluded to prosecute Manspeaker for assault and to have the officer removed from office lf this was possible. The plea of guilty which he had entered stood In the way, however, and he retained A. N. Sullivan to represent him and try to have the fine set aside. To this end the attorney wantea to file a motion supported by affidavits which set forth that the plea of guilty was ob tained by fraud, and other statutory grounds for setting aside the verdict of a Jury in Justice court. The mo tion was rather unique and attracted considerabe attention from attor neys as it brings up a new point in connection with pleading guilty to an offense against the city ordi nances. Attorney Sullivan was un able to convince the court it should be filed. V
