CHICAGO SALOON-KEEPERS REJOICING OVER A JUDGE'S DECISION. Judge McAllister in Chicago yesterday decided that the city ordinance prohibiting the sale of Mquor to minors was void. A few days ago Oscar ‘Matthia, who keeps a concert saloon, was arrested for selling wine to Linnie St. Clair, a sixteen-year- old girl, who was abducted by a young man whom she had met in concert saloons. Matthia applied for release under the habeas corpus act. The Judge held that the portion of the ordinance which Tevokes a saloon-keeper's license on a second of- fense ts unconstituucnal, Among the grounds for Unls opinion are that the general incorporation does not give the city council power to pass such an ordinance. ‘The act gives the council power to levy fines not to excced $200, and im- ison the offender not to exceed six months. For- felture of license 1s neither fine nor imprisonment. Again, the dramshop act provides a puntshinent to saldon-keepers selling to minors, except in cases where the minor brings a written request from the Parent. ‘The ordinance punished the seller or giver away of drink regardless of such request, thereby contravening the statute. Mattia was discharged, and the decision gives great Joy to the saloon-keepers. Locat.

The effect is equivalent temporarily to a paralytc stroke. Now, nttrateof amyl is very cheap and plentiful. I pro- Pose to fire shells filled with this chemical instead of gunpowder. It will not be necessary to pene- rate a ship... few gallons of this nitrate dashed on the deck of a war ship would, soon render her crew helpless. The most powerful tronciads would be even more vulnerable than the light cruise! for they would be sucking down great draughts air through their artificial ventilators, and the odor would thus rapidly permeate the whole ship. ‘The whole crew being rendered helpless for an hour or two, the ship could, of course, be towed Into a safe spot, while the captors ventiiated her and removed the insensible men.” — ‘coo Sport in the Wild West.
