The board under the law, the brief said, has the au thority to grant liquor licenses, make rules for the government of the places in which liquor Is to be sold. When the board estab lished a rule to prohibit clubs from selling liquor to their members and fixed a pen alty for a violation of this rule It went beyond Its Jurisdiction. Laws depriving one of property or liberty must be passed according to law like an ordinance, but the rules of the excise board are not even passed with a title and a bill. The board simply meets and "adopts the rules of last year." Gibson was convicted of selling liquor as president of the club arid was fined. Batcher Makes a Mistake. C.

The company changed its rules so that, words following- a signature were to be paid for. Its previous rule allowing such extra wotds to be counted as part of the signature. The rule was not authorised by the commission and was put Into effect as a matter of fact, without the knowledge of the commissioners.' A second count against the company for falling to fll.

According to the opinion of Deputy City Attorney I-'lansburg. filed with Mayor Love Thursday, those who are objecting to the oil tanks near their homes out at Twenty fifth and Randolph streets, must grin and bear it, for the council has given away something for them. He holds that Inas much as the city has granted permission for the erection of the tanks, the Lincoln Oil company has acquired property rl flits in the tanks and their location which can not be taken away from It unless it can be proven that the tanks are a nuisance. He also volunteers the Information that the storage of gasolene and coal oil In suitable tanks does not constitute a nuis ance per se, but where the tanks are Im- llcrggj-Tke Original-Genuine for Breakfast, Dinner, Sapper, Luncheon when.ver you want so ma th i of diflarent and better whether you eat it dry from the package M with milk, cream or fruit juices this delightful food never dis appoint.

The mere fact that they are unpleasantly objectionable In the neighborhood, or that the rental value of premlxes In the vi cinity Is reduced Is not sufficient ground alone for interference by a court. He holds that the city has the right to refuse per mission for the construction of additional tanks If It would be unjust to property owners to permit It. and that If It does so It should notify the company to that effect. Ha holds that the city cannot compel the removal of the fourth oil tank erected by the oil company at that location. Judge Sullivan In the Tax Case Democratic Candidate Seeks to Set Aside a Pet Democratic Law. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LLVCOLN, Neb., Sept. Id. (Special Tele gramsJudge J. Sullivan, who Is attempt ing to have nullified the law enacted by the last legislature providing for the pay ment of an annual license fee by corpora tions, this afternoon filed his brief In the district court Of Lancaster county. Judge Sullivan argued In his brief that the occupation fee charged by the state is a license for the right to do business. As a license he Insists that the money should go Into the school fund or munic ipal division In which It Is paid, according to the constitution. H. argues also that the decisive test of a law licensing a' busi ness Is that such business or occupation shall be under the supervision of the gov ernment. In the law under dispute, no mention la made of a governmental super vision. The brief refers the court to the section of the constitution which provides that taxes shall be raised by taxation on the valuation of all classes of property. This section refers to persons and corpora tions and thus prohibits the levy of suoh a tax as contemplated in the law. Deputy Attorney General Grant Martin for the state filed a brief In which he declared It to be the right of th. legis lature to enact such a law even if it did refer only to corporations and not to In dividuals. Corporations are creatures of the law, he argued, and are given liberties not enjoyed by the people. He upholds the law In every respect. No oral argu ments will be made and It Is believed Judge Frost will decide the csbb by Oct tober L The democrats In the legislature set great store by the enactment of this legislation and newspapers friendly to the candidacy of Judge Sullivan for supreme Judge de nied that he had anything to do with the attempted nullification when he was published as filing the suit some time ago.

NOTHING STARTLING DEVELOPS Others Beside Commandant Barnes Are Involved In the Charges Which Are Being; Inqalred Into. GRAND ISLAND, Neb., Sept. 16. (Spe cial Telegram.) Governor Shallenberger and the Board of Public Lands and Buildings are here Investigating charges of Incompetency and grafting made by ad Jutant McGraw against Commandant Ell A. Barnes of the Soldiers' home. At the opening of the hearing this morn Ing Oovernor Shallenberger took a step which may be construed as an indication that he will oust McGraw whatever the result of the hearing. He seemed to call Into question the right of the board to Investigate when he Inquired, before the taking of testimony was begun, under what provision of the statute the board was sitting, and furthermore suggested that the various attorneys appearing for Commandant Barnes, Adjutant McGraw, etc., be eliminated from the hearing as counsel, himself being perfectly willing to refer all matters of , a legal nature to Attorney General Thompson. The latter, on the first point, declared that upon the board was imposed by statute the duty of making rules. Involving the duty to see that such rules were enforced. Upon the second point he preferred to permit ail who desired legal counsel to flUve same, and after a consultation between the four members of the board and Governor Shal lenberger this was agreed to and the hear ing began. Adjutant McGraw was the first witness and alleged that Commandant Barnes con tinuously and persistently refused to give him access to the books, and that this led to confusion, as be could not check up bills. As a result goods were delivered that were not ordered, and there was no system. At one time a shipment was re ceived from Heinze Bros, at St. Joseph which contained chow-chow, stuffed olives and relish. When the bill came he as serted It called for vinegar instead of stuffed olives. The goods were not used by the slate, but the state paid for them, he said. Secretary of State Junkln produced the voucher, and the stuffed olives were billed as Just what they were. Thexe were paid for, so far as the evidence now In dis closes, by the state. There was, however, no changing of names of articles on the voucher. Mr. McGraw stated that In the bill shown to him by a clerk, but quickly snatched away again, the Item read "vin egar." Mr, McGraw also referred to a box of eggs delivered from the Roesor grocery which, he said, were not delivered, but admitted that later the box was made good. He stated that there were also Irregularities In the deliveries of the Don ald-Porter company of this city. ' Btorr of the Saga-r. C. H. Jones was the leading witness in regard to these transactions for MoGraw. He alleged that at one time there were seven sacks of sugar missing from a de livery of 3,000 poundH, but only twenty three, as his commissary books showed, were delivered. Upon ' another occasion there were many more gallon cans of blackberries charged and,' ai he presumed, paid for than were delivered, t least half a dozen others were alleged. Mr. Jones stated that after the first few weeks of his acting as commissary the system of delivery became better, and when there were complaints they were rectified. At the morning session, at which this testimony was given. Secretary Junkln's vouchers were looked up and seemed to corroborate the commissary's figures. The Donald Porter company, hearing of the testimony, attended the afternoon ses sion from the president to the driver of the delivery wagon, and Just before closing made answer, each being sworn. It devel oped from the sworn testimony that when the sugar was ordered 3,000 pounds the firm was a little short, and sent out two sacks by the Soldiers' Home driver, and upon another occasion five; then, with its own team, twenty-three, which the com missary had credited. The testimony traced the sugar up to the driver of the home wagon, who was then called and admitted that the sugar had been given into his keeping. He testified that he had delivered it to the home and that It had been given to Commissary Jones. Other Charges Brought Ont. Other testimony was given by various witnesses, setting forth that the home physician and family had fine meals while patients in the hospital were poorly fed and halt starved; that the doctor drank to lxcess; that the clothing purchased of the firm of S. N. Wolbach was not always up to sample and that substitution was made; that a case of eggs charged and paid for from O. Koeser was not delivered until the adjutant got after him continually; that the farm boss was Idle and that there were scarcely any vegetables all year, several witnesses declaring they had but one mess of peas and two small messes of string beans the entire year, no sweet corn and no cabbage excepting that raised by the florist complimentary to the boys, whereas In other years there was plenty of all veg etables. The farm boss, according to the testimony, was Idle and profane, even in the presence of women members. So far the defendants of such charges have not had opportunity to offer evidence. The ohapel, in which the Investigation Is held, was filled for several hours this aft ernoon. The board and Governor Shallen berger are patiently listening to all com plaints the members may have and will resume the hearing at 8:30 a. m.

Don't drink coffee. Don't drink tea. Don't exercise too mnch. These three don'ts constitute the advice of Mlsa May Sutton, champion woman tennis player of the world, to girls who would go in seriously and systematically for athletics. Eat what you want. Take long walks. Get all the fresh air you can. These are the three rules Miss Sut ton lays down for girls who desire merely to be strong and healthy. The little champion recently ap peared on courts in San Francisco in a series of exhibition matches. It had been reported that she was not In the best of health, but she gave no Indi cations of having "gone back," playing her strong game that made herVorld's champion, with her same old dash and accuracy. At tbe close of the series Miss Sut ton was asked to tell what system of training she had found most effective and what, in her opinion, is tbe best form of exercise and diet for the aver age American girl. In part she said: "While I advocate hearty eating, I cannot say too much against the uae of tea or coffee. They are nerve destroyers and no one can be healthy who per sists in their use. "Too much exercise is as bad as too little. Walking is the best exercise there Is. Early each morning, after drinking a glass of hot water, dressed In loose clothing, I walk for nearly an hour. "Athletics should receive some at tention from every girl. If her time precludes the playing of tennis or golf she should take long walks in the open air, both before the morning and evening meal, throwing the head and shoulders back and taking long. deeD draughts of that which money cannot buy but is In reach of the poor as well as the rich pure air. "Pure air and a moderate amount of exercise I cannot too strongly im press upon girls as being the only secret of health and grace. Medicine for that out-of-sorts feeling may cause girls to Imagine they feel all right, but wuat they really need is more fresh air and not quite so much sitting around the house in tight-fitting clothes as a great many of them do."
