for Fining Saloonkeepers.
LEGALITY OF THE MATTER TO BE TESTED.

The city ordinance which gives the Judge
of police court power to impose a flno on the
keepers of disorderly houses Is to bo given
another whirl this morning in district court.
William DlUnvar was arrested about n
week ago , charged with the maintaining of u
disorderly houso. Ho pleaded guilty before
Judge McGco and was sentenced to pjy u
line of > 4.GO , In default of which ho was sent
to the county Jail to board the amount out with
Hherlft O'Neill. It has long boon a question
whether the city ordlnnrica authorizing pro
ceedings of that kind U loizal , and Dllsaver
consulted Attorneys Dalloy and Aylosworth
as to the stops that should ha taken. Yester
day afternoon the matter c.imoto a head , and
a writ ol habeas corpus was sued out In dis
trict court for the release of IJIlsavor.
Tlio ground upon which the writ Is asked
for Is the Illegality of the ordinance. Tno
attorneys claim that ttio city has no right to
punlili ollrnscs of any kind except in so far
us that right is givoh It by the statutes of
the state. They further claim that there Is
no such thing as u disorderly house men
tioned in the statutes , so that no law relating
to the subject can uo passed by the citv.
The question will bo heard bcforo either
Judge Smith or .ludgo Dccmcr this morning
at ! l o'clock , and the innttor will bo decided.
The city ordinance nbovo referred to is to
bo tried to its utmost capacity in the next few
months. Captain W. A. Hays was arrested
several days ago on the charge of keeping n
disorderly house , and ho was lined $01.10
night before last at a session of the police
court held for the special purpose of hearing
his case , Ho at once gave notice that the
case would bo appealed to the district court.
Ho has retained the legal services of ( .eono
H. Hewitt , and tlio case will bo pusbca to
the furthest limit. The outcome of the
cases will bo watched with great interest ,
from the fact that when Attorney P. E. Sea-
brook left the city the saloonkeepers and
a peed share of the business men
of the city lay back and congratulated them
selves that they would not bo troubled any
more by such proceedings. The line system
has been In vogue In all tbo principal cities
of the state over since the passing of the
prohibitory law , but the "question of Us
legality is one which has never been decided
by the supreme court. Wutcbavor way the
case is decided this morning , It will bo ap
pealed to the supreme court , and thus u vast
amount of litigation is llltuly to result from
the opening up of the subject.

I'roit'l of a Ijocn' Institution.
COUNCIL iU.UFFs , la. , Juno 3. To the Ed
itor of TUB BEIS : It has always been some
thing of a mystery to mo that tbo local news
papers , usually so prompt to praise and boom
all local Institutions , should overlook one of
the greatest enterprises , not only in Council
Bluffs , but In the entire west , when writing
un the important Improvements and enter
prises of the city. I refer to the
United States Masonic Benevolent as
sociation. It has only been In Tup. UKK tnut
I have seen anything of lute about this pros
perous coiicern. Columns buvo been written
about the uiugnlllccnt &lx and seven story
blocks , the motor lines , the parks , bridge ? ,
Chautauqun , Manawa and scores of ottier
things ttmt command more tbun local atten
tion , but very little has been said In the local
papers about this the largest and best known
Masonic Insurance society In the world. We
must measure an enterprise by the extent
and character of the business transacted and
the amount of inonoylrccoived and paid out.
By this measure nil the other enterprises In
the city dwindle Into perhaps not inslgnill-
cnnco , but into small proportions compared
with the immense volume of business
transacted by this association. Outside -
side of the members of the order
and the many bonnllcnrlcs In the
city and vicinity there are few people who
realize that wo hnvo got right hero In our
midst one of the greatest concerns of Its kind
in the world , but If they would pause as they
rush by that beehive of industry , the Masonic
temple' , they could bear from the street the
Incessant clicking of the Hying keys of type
writers , the rush ana clatter of messenger
bays and clerks , and If they would puss Just
about the time the mall Is gathered up for
any of tlio trains they would sea the po ill
clerks coma to the big box at the lower
end of the sluito that leads from the
mailing room and gather up the letters ,
not Inju common delivery mall bug , but In a
big government mail Hack. If they would
asic tlia two postal clerks who carry away the
big sack about the number of letters dally
talten from this single mail box they would
learn that as high as 4,000 are often deposit
ed by the Masonlo people in n single day. If
this would not glvo them a suftlclent idea of
the vast volume of business transacted n
visit to the various departments wliure the
young lady and gentlemen clerks are the
[ > lcturos of concentrated energy , and utuo-
[ iilnutc.-i chat with Secretary W. ,1. Jameson ,
who Is u steair. engine of energy hlnwclf ,
would force the conclusion that there is no
other building In this part of tbo country
whoso walls surround a busier phalanx , or
witness the pouring in and out of such a tide
of business.
The unprecedented success of the associa
tion Is duo llrst and primarily to the plan
ipon which It is organized , furnishing llfo
ndomnity to Masonic brethren and their
families at the lowest cost consistent with
strict business principles , with n guarantee
fund from each member that gives a finan
cial standing and contldonco that cannot ha
shaken. This guaranty fund hns reached
lie immense sum of $1:10,000 : , and continues
o grow with the same marvelous rapidity of
.ho company itself , Tbo interest on this
fund wilt pay this yjar four of the regular
luath assessments , The company since it
ins boon orgnnl/cd has paid out from its
Council BIuilH oftlco and through the
Council Bluffs banks , over flO.OOO
o the wluows mm orphans' of
locoasud Masons , The association makes a
Iberal contract with the asuurcd , free from
annoying restrictions. It does not purpose
o glvo Its members something for nothing ,
but guarantees to give each the worth of his
nonoy , and to pay in ful ) suoa benefits the
assured U ontltlod to under the terms of his
certificates.
In answer to the demands of Its natrons the
association is Issuing a S1'J50 cortitlcuto upon
iroportlounlo rates of larger certlllcatcs.
I'hls U for the benefit of patrons who do not
desire to carry the regular f , > ,600 certlllcatcs ,
vulcb waa formerly the smallest Issued. It
olio enables 1119 many \vho o coufldonco lu
the association , which was rcck-rootod from
the llrst and has been growing every day , to
Increase their Insurance , making tbn limit
W.i'O Instead of f5OuO. The more I
look Into the plan of this magnifi
cent Institution the better 1 am
pleased with It. and the prouder 1 become of
the fuel that It Is u Council Uliitls Institu
tion , organized by Council Bluffs men and
brought to Its present wonderful stugo of de
velopment oy Council lUufta brains and en
ergy.
The head of the association Is Judge J. R.
Reed , who has Just been appointed chlof Jus
tice of the United Stales cotlrt of private
land claims , than whom thcro Is not a man In
the country with n cleaner record for honor
nnd probity. All the other ofllccra are gen
tlemen of equal Integrity nnd high character.
W.O.Vlrt , llrst vice president nnd manngcrof
the western department , Is n gentleman whoso
ability as an insurance man cannot bo ques
tioned. Fred II. Brown , second vice presi
dent nnd manager of the partorn department
with headquarters In Chicago , has nn unsul
lied business record nnd the experience of
twenty years as an insurance manager.
There Is not n bettor known man In Council
Bluffs than Secretary and Treasurer W. J.
Jameson and It Is largely to his fertile brain
and steam-pressure energy that the marvel
ous success of the association la to bo at
tributed. Ho Is the working mem
ber of the association nnd gets
through with an nvalancho of
routine business everyday that would para
lyze an ordinarily constituted individual.
Ho pulls off his coat nnd rolls up his sleeves
when ho comes Into the olllco In the morning ,
but this Is the only departure from his drawIng -
Ing room manners. Meet him when you will
aud ho has a crushing grasp for your hand
and a cheery smile that adds days to your
llfo and makes you feel that there Is some
thing moro than words In the brotherhood of
man. Dr. T , B. Lncey , the medical director ,
stands nt the top of his profession , nnd closely
and critically examines every rl. k that Is
offered. There Is not n man connected with
the association who hns not an unsullied rep
utation , and whoso lire has not cempclloi
perfect confidence of all who know him. I
is nn Institution that I am proud of , both as a
citizen of Council Bluffs and as u Mason
confident that It Is protecting my wife am
babies better than any other aszcncy can.

Bert Evans , Mike Klldaro and Charles
Evans had an cxporionco nt Lake Munnwa
yesterday morning that will last thorn the
rest of tno season. They were crossing the
luke while a stiff bree/o was blowing. They
attempted to tack , when the rudder suddenly
broke. The weight of the boat had been
thrown upon the rudder , and the giving way
of the support Ciipsi/ed the boat and sent the
three occupants into the water bond first.
They wore near the south beach when tbo
accident occurred , and they at first thought
they would bo nblo to swim to
the shore without much trouble , but
the wind was from the south aud
short trial convinced them that It
would bo flying in the face of
providence for them to try to swim In that
direction , and they turned about and struck
out for the north shore. A young man named
Thomas , who tends the boats saw their pre
dicament and sot out In u row boat to help
them. After ho had nearly reached the thrco
swimmers , ho too run againut the wind and
capsized. Hu was so near the others , how
ever , tha tuoy wore able to reach the boat
and climb on top , and In this way the luck
less quartet drifted In to shore. Thora was
nothing so very serious about the affair , but
It Is a little too soon yet for them to look at it
in the light of a Joko.

They proceeded at once to the cafe , whore
they were closeted , In secret session nbout

YOU CAN SEP :
with half a glance that this is a safe place to
buy your own as well as youi' boy's clothes.
We'd rather miss a sale than mislead a cus
tomer and have him disappointed or disposed
to "BLACK BALL" us at every opportunity ,
for we're after that kind of success that comes
in the long run from serving people well.
OUR OWN MAKE
of School Suits and Dressy Clothes for Boys
have done "heaps of good. " Some of our cus
tomers are as enthusiastic about these goods as
if they had an interest in the business. It all
comes from the splendid satisfaction realized.
Isn't this better than "bam boozeling" the people
ple and having them feel that you have played
a "confidence game" on them.
