Holds Ordinance t Not Applicable, to Jjj Empress Theater ''The plan of allowing patrons to gather upon the sidewalk, blocking both the exits and entrance. Is far more danger ous In case of panic or five than the method used by the management of the Empress theater. I do out think tills a case to come within the ordinance, and find the defendant not guilty." This was the nucleus of Police Magis trate Charles Foster's decision In the caso brought agalnat W. Ledoux, mana ger of the Empress theater. In which It was charged that a city ordinance was being violated, providing that the pas sageways of picture shows shall not be obstructed. "I visited the theater in question and carefully looked at the entrance and exits as well as other parts of the building," declared the magistrate, "and I think the structure is as nearly fireproof as ' It Is possible to make It. I want It un derstood, however, that I am not holding .he ordinance invalid, nor determining ny other case than the one at bar. There might be other moving picture theaters in the city which would, upon Investigation, come within the ordi nance." City Attorney Rlne la preparing for in troduction at the next city council meet ing a resolution directing the police de partment to keep the passageways at the Empress theater clear at all times, regardless of the decision of the police ludge. "Then they can go into district court if they wish," aald Mr. Rlne. According to Judge Foster's decision persons waiting at the theater entrance ire allowed to stand Inside the building. Engines'to Collide Labor Day Placed On Tracks at Speedway Tbe two big locomotives that are to mash each other's faces in a head-on collision at the Omaha Speedway Mon day afternoon climbed over the high timbers of the saucer-shaped speedway this morning and are now in the arena -eady for action. Great trestles were built on thousands of ties, with tracks laid on an inclined plane to list the engines over the eleva ted timber track of the spe;dway. The top six feet of timber was removed, ahich left an elevation of fourteen feet or the locomotive to climb. When the trestle had been built the first engine was run up to the summit under Its own steam. Then in order to prevent 'lis rushing down on the other side and flying the traok, a cable was run from this engine to the other one on the track on the outside. Then as the first monster of eighty tons of steel went down the incline it dragged the other one to the summit This waa let down the Incline gradually by mean of a block ind tackle attached to a firm base in .he rear. Painters were put to work to label the engines "Bryan" and "Roosevelt" ri-apectively. On I.abor day the gates will be thrown open at noon. The races are to begin at S o'clock, and the locomotive collision Is to be staged aa a climax of the after noon's entertainment. Don't run the risk, get a sue bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery now.
