Emulating the example set by Attorney , J. J. Sbca, who for a number of years kept the ealoon men of this city In continual ho. water by injunction proceedings under the ' mulct law, Doo" Ocorno W. Iing has com- tnenced tho name practice. Heccntly he In- Htitutcd injunction proceedings against M. ' Wollsteln & Co. and secured a temporary I order against their saloon on Broadway, i which was presumably nettled, as tho In- i Junction wan not put in forcu. eflterday through his attorney, William i A. Mynster, he wcrved notice on Charles Lolbold that an Injunction for alleged vln- ! latlon of tho mulct law would ho sought In tho district court. Mayor Jennings, when 1 Informed of tho proceedings, mitt It was an outrngo and a deplorable condition of af- i fairs that made it possible for a man to go 1 Into court and harass another man In this manner simply because fo happened to con duct a saloon. He said: "Charles l.elliold, of all the fulonnkcttpcrs In the city, has conducted his place according to tho pro visions of the law as far as poslbln. Ho has neor had wine rooms nnd has always closed his ealoon at midnight, whllo other places were kept open all night long. There has never been an Instance where the po llco have had thn ((lightest trouble with him." Lclbold wan more outspoken. Ho Bald ho regarded tho proceedings as a direct at tempt at blackmail, as ho was known to havo ftome moiiny . and that for it money consideration thn Injunction would bo dropped. He said: "I will close my Ba loon Ural before ever this man I .on 5 or his attorney will get a dollar of my money. It is nn outrage, but I promise that if I havo to close my place every saloon In tho city will havo to bo conducted strictly In ac cordance with the mulct law or c'hc I will know the reason why." "Doc" bong, tho plaintiff In the,o pro ceedings, is a well known character around town and has figured in the police and Jus tice courlH. At ono time he was a frequenter of tho gambling roonw. The Baloonkoeperi had hoped that when Shea quit the business ot levying tribute on them in the shape ot tho attorney fees to which he was entitled under the law when bringing Injunction proceedings that they would bo left In peace, and are now feeling much dis couraged since Long has started out on the same game.

The further hearing In tho High Bchool site appeal before County Superintendent McManus baa bcon postponed until next Monday, Tvlien n motion for ''Ismlssal filed by tho attorneys for tho Board of Education will be argued. The motion Is based on the following grounds: FirstThat the evidence Introduced by appellant Is Insufllclent to sustnln suld appeal or to authorize the county superin tendent to reverse the action of thn Hoard of Directors of satd Independent school district or set the same aside in thn loca tion of said school site involved in this appeal. Second There is no evidence Introduced to show that the site selected was Im proper nor that tho action of said board was In nny manner Illegal. Third The evidence falls to show any cause for 11 reversal of the action of tho Board of DirectorB in locating school house site. Fourth There is no evidence to show and none that tends to show that nt tho time of the selection of said school site: to-wlt. at time mentioned In itlHdavit of appeal, that said school site was not as centrally located ns In the Judgment of trie snld Board of Directors was possible. Fifth There is 110 evidence that shows or tends to show that said school site is not located with reference to geographical position, number nnd eonvenlenco of the scliola ri Sixth That the evidence Introduced by appellant of the proceedings and testimony In the appeal of T I.. Smith to former Superintendent Sawyer, nnd from him to the superintendent of public instruction, was from the action of the board in April, 1W, nnd neither shows nor tends to show tho Judgment nf said Board of Directors as to what site In April. 1901. would be the most cuntral possible for the location of said Hlzh school. Seventh That tho evidence nnd proceed ings In snld former appeal does not show the Judgment and opinion of the Board of Directors of said district In a matter before them and determined by them In the prncuedlngs appealed from herein. ICIghth There is no evidence introduced in Hits case to show a former ndltidtcatlon of the questions raised by this appeal. NinthThat the only ovldunce Introduced by appellant in reference to Hits site Is the testimony of witnesses taken nenrly n year ago upon another and different case and ns to conditions ami surroundings ex isting: nt that time only Tenth That this appeal Is not taken by the same parties taking thn former appeal nor Is It an appeal from the snmo action of the board. The progress of the case so far Is very pleasing to the nttorncys for tho board and yeBterday they -word feeling confldont that the appeal will result In the action of tho school board being atllrmed. Pnllko at the time of tho former appeal, tho-mumbers of tho board with one exception are unani mously In favor of building the school on Oakland avenue.

In order to protect Its rights tho motor company secured tho appointment of Clar ence A. Woolman, a former member of Company h, Fifty-first Iowa volunteers, as a deputy sheriff without expense to the county and he was placed down at the lake as a watchman. Tho company also placed Andy Olson as caretaker of its property at the beach. As part of tho property has been held by the courts to be In Sarpy county. Nebraska, Woolman Ht tho request of the mntnr company was given a commis sion as deputy sheriff of that county.

Mc Namara's habeas corpus caso against the girl's father, in which .bo sought to have her relttHtsl from his paternal care, was dismissed by McNamara, as he aald he had accomplished all he wanted.
