THE LICENSE SHOULD BE REFUSED. “What is the shortest line of travel as con- templated by section 160f the new liquor law?” is the question that was recently submitted to the assistant attorney for the District opinion, The question arose in case of a saloon keeper who by ordinary course of tri was over 400 from a place of religious worship, but measured by the shortest route was within the prohibitive distance. Mr. Thomas holds that the old liquor law stipulated the measure- j ment to be by “the ordinary course of | travel,” but the new liquor law distinctly stated “measured between the nearest entrance of each by the shortest course of travel.” Mens- ured according to the shortest legal line of travel, the saloon is within 400 feet of the school, and Mr. Thomas holds that the license should be refused.

Little Marthena Harrison Said to Have Been Cured of Paraly Marthena Harrison, the five-year-old daugh- , ter of Russell B. Harrison, who has been under treatment in New York for nervous prostration and paralysis, has, according to the New York Heralt, almost entirely recovered, and is now able to play with her companions. ‘The child, with its mother ax nurse, was quarantined for five weeks in the White House while suffering from a severe attack of scarlet fever, When that disease was conquered, Marthena’s right arm, side and leg were para- lyzed. ‘The paralysis affected her speech so that she could not talk plainly, and her case seemed hopeless, The attention of Mr. and Mrs. Harrison was called to the successful treatment of certain forms of paralysin by elec ricity.
