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. President Henry still
holds out for n site west of Main street and
south of Broadway.

F.ver since the old motor company nc
qulred possesion of tho property at Iike
.Mannwa known as Manhattan Beach It has
had more or less troublo with squatters and
persons claiming to havo a tltlo to the land.
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.
Ismus Wright claims tltlo by a tax deed
from Pottawattamie county to part of the
land which the courts have decided Is In
Sarpy county." Nebraska, and not In Inwi.
Ho hired one Jacob itaph to squat on tho
land for him In an attempt to provo his
title. Deputy Sheriff Woolman turned him
off the place and yesterday Haph wont be
fore Justice Vlen and filed nn Information
against Woolman, charging him with Im
personating an officer and falsely assuming
to be a deputy sheriff and arresting him.
(Rapti), He also filed an Information against
Otftnn nhnr-vlnv him u lt!i tublne hl tent

sued warrdnis for the arrest of Woolnmn j
and Olson, but no arrests have, been mad? '

When Sam Chri.itensen, an employe of th;

hour yesterday morning to the shanty

his brogue. Tho latter, while the negro
kept him covered with the revoher, tied
Kosdiko spread-eagle fnKhlnn to the posts
of the bed with a sheet and tied a towel
around his mouth as a gag. The two then
made a search of the premises, nnd hnvlng
found Ohrlstensen's money took their de
parture. Chrlstennen reported the robbery to the
police, nt tho ame time intimating that ho
considered Kosdlke's veislon of how tho
money came to be. missing as somewhat
fishy. I'ofldlke, although clooly questioned
by the police, Htuck to his original story.
Chrlstensen drew his time check Thursday
and had paid out nil ot It except the $2'),
which ho hid In the folds of some clothing.
It Is tin Id that the billing place of the money

SIOUX CITT. May 23. (Special Tele
gram.) The attempt of W. C. McNamara to
sccuro for IiIh wlfo Mary McAllister of Da
kota City took on .1 new phase tcday. 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. He had suc
ceeded In having the clrl placed In charge
of the sheriff, whero ho agreed to remain
in preference to going back io her un
kind father.
But the father of the girl was not to be
outdone. Ono of bin friends, Fred Schrlever
of Dakota City, at MoAlllster'o solicitation
secured au order from tho district court
directed against Sheriff Sides, compelling
the latter to produce the girl In ctfSrt to
show roae,on why she ahmtld not 'bo siren
her liberty. Tho papers In this new habeas
corpus caso were nerved by the coronor of
tho county upon tho sheriff. The girl was nt
once- taken to Pender, Neb., where the court
Is sitting. Sides nnd tho attorneys wcjit
also, and tomorrow morning; nt 9 o'clock tho
case lis to bo heard.
It looked this morning an It tho senna-
tlonal ease was to come to a poaceful "nd,
but McNamara had nt sooner withdrawn his
writ than the- one from the lather's friend
wns served. It Is said Schrlever. also. Is a
pultor for the hand of tho pretty girl. Mc
Namara Is In Sioux City tonight, but his at
torney 'will go to Pender In the morning to
represent his Interests. The girl wants to
marry McNamara, but 19 afraid her father
or brother will do some personal harm to
ono of them. She Mas asked that her father
and brother bo but under bonds to keep tho
peace.
Tho wholo thing Is n farce, as Mary Mc
Allister Is of age. and Is at liberty to go and
como as he plttiHea. But her father Is ono
of thefo men who will never lot up nnd ho
hatj said McNamara cannot marry his daugh
ter nnd live. Tho wholo community is di
vided on the affair, nnd It Is tho sensation
of tho hour In this section ot the country.

Mlicl.cmi Is Honored.
Today President Georgo K. MacLean of
tho Iowa Stato University, formerly of tho .
University of Nebraska, was admitted Into
tho inner clrclo of tho National Congress of
Mothers. President MacLean as a member
ot tho Iowa advisory board has been an 1
Interested listener at most of the sessions
of the congress this week and tho women
havo thought fit to honor him with a place 1
In their most sacred precincts of the con
gress. There was a touching little ceremony
which took place at tho breakfast given at
tho Savery houso by Theodora Wadsworth
this morning, when Mrs. Blrney. president
of tho congress, pinned the congress badgo
upon President MacLean's coat lapel. This
Is tin honor accorded to fow, there being '
scarcely a dozen as yet admitted to this
circle. Onvernor Boosovelt Is one ot the j
honored ones. .
