County AltonicjTnkcN n Ilanil In
I'nvor of S n ii iliiSlinvlitK. .
The members of the Barbers' Protective as
sociation , in their fight to enforce the Sun
day closing law , have run up against a snag
In the person of County Attorney Kllpnck ,
who has decided that so far as ho can prevent -
vent It the county shall not bo put to any
further expense lit the matter. Mr. Kllpaclc
yesterday notified Justices1 Vlen nnd Forrlor
not to Issue any warrants In the event of the
association filing further informations
against proprietors of barber shops for keep
ing open on Sundays.
The county nttornoy's action was prompted
toy the fact that popular sentiment was
against closing the barber shops on the Sab
bath nnd that it was impossible to secure a
conviction nt the hands of a Jury. The
county has afrcady been put to an expense
of over | 100 In 'tho cases brought by the as
sociation against Barber Bernhardl and his
assistants , and Mr. Kllpnck thought It was
about tlmo to call a halt.
Acting on instructions from the associa
tion , Attorney Sweet yesterday morning
filed an Information In Justice Vlen's court
against William T. Silver , the proprietor of
a barber shop on Pearl street , for keeping
his place open last Sunday morning. Justice
Vlcn , however , declined to Issue a warrant
for the arrest of Silver , relying on the sec
tion of the code which provides that a
justice of the pcaco must file an information
but leaves the issuance of 'thewarrant ' to
his discretion.
Falling to get ft warrant from Justice
Vicn's court , Attorney Sweet then hied hlm-
aelt to the court of Justice Ferrler , where
bo filed another information against Barber
Silver. Hero agnln ho mot with no better
success , ns Justice Fcrrlor likewise dectlned
to Issue any wnrrant for the arrest of Sil
ver.
Attorney Sweet questioned the right of the
county attorney to decline to prosecute a
state case , but his arguments had no effect
on cither of the justices and they both
remained firm In their refusal to Issue a war
rant. The members of the association feel
aggrieved at the action of the county at
torney and the Justices and are now more
determined than over to continue the light.
Attorney Sweet stated that ho would take
the matter Into the district court nnd apply
for a writ of mandamus to compel the
justices 'to Issue a warrant under the In
formations.
County Attorney Kllpack says that while
there Is nothing to prevent the members
of the Barbers' association from applying for
a writ of mandamus , such action , In his
opinion , will avail them nothing. All that
the court could order , he says , would bo
that the justices act In the matter , and the
manner in which ho shall act Is under the
law left to his discretion.

lilouco of C. AV. McDonnlil.
The residence of Charles W. McDonald ,
manager of the Sandwich Manufacturing
company , nt 410 South Eighth street , was
visited by burglars some tlmo during Fri
day night. Tno gold watches and chains
comprised the booty secured. Entrance to
the house was obtained by cutting out the
screen from a dining room window on the
ground floor which had boon left open. Once
Inside the burglars visited every room In
the house without disturbing any of the In
mates , who slept soundly -while their valu
ables were being niched. In the room occu
pied by Mr. McDonald's mother the burglars
secured a valuable lady's gold watch nnd
chain , the elldo of the latter being set with
opals and diamonds. In Mr. McDonald's
room they secured his -wife's gold watch
and chain. They took Mr , McDonald's
trousers and searched the pockets for money ,
but were disappointed , as he had taken the
precaution to place his pocketbook under
his pillow. The garment was found In the
hall yesterday morning and , Mr. McDonald ,
missing ; bis trousers when ho awoke yes
terday , was the first notice he bad that the
house had been burglarized.

ited by burglars during the night time nnd
on each occasion the thieves went through
the house without awakening any of the
family. On both former occasions the bur
glars secured gold watches as a result ot
their Visits.

dlulng-room window showed that two bur
glars were in the house Friday night.
