FlOuTING . , CITY OlUDCE. . Right or n MuuulcIpuUl.y to ulry a State Lnv CuuItt1 Iii QtuestIoui. The case of the city against Mrs. Jacob Howarth , which Is now being tried In police court premises to prove Interesting . The letendaht Is denying the right at the city to pass an ordinance which Is clearly In con- filet with the laws or the state. Mrs. lie- warth was accused at conducting the Scott house , on North Main street In I manner whIch would render It amenable to hue state law providing a penitentiary sentence for people convIcted at the crime wIth which she Is chargc,1. The ordinances at Council L Bluffs are so framed that a ciurtaln element or society may dOdge the penitentiary by : merely dropping $9.60 Into the municIpal Islet I slot each month. As u general thing they submIt to this sort oC thing gracefully , but Mrs. Howarth Is m not bui that way. Her attorney , Judge E. lJ , A'lcsworth , yesterday filed a demurrer to the Intorla.Uon. In which he alleged that the ordinance was In conflict with the state laws and hence was void. Several young ; ladies , without ' any visible means oL support , were round In Mrs. Haworth's hotel , and they are In Jai serving out lie customary scntence. The demurrer was taken under advisement by Judge McGee yesterday , and It Is' ' prob- able that a decision wi be rendered this morning. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Remember the Brownies' entertainment at Dohany's Thursday DecEmber 27. for . the benefit at the Christian home.
