Seventy-five head of horses. Browx’s Parxk Hoxs Records of Liquor Sales. There have been varied contests grow- ing out of the attempted enforcement of the prohibitory and numerous intc esting law qu ave been brought out. Among the latest questions is one in regard to the forms of the reports to be filled by those having county permits to sell for medical and other purposes. Judge Givens, of the Des Moines circuit cour just rendered two decisions which are interesting touching upon the manner of making such reports. The most essential parts of these decisions are given as follow I hold it to be a matter of common knowl- edge to all conversant with the business that acase of beer means twenty-four quarts of beer in bottles, and hen report of the number of cakes of beer is a report of the quantity, As to distilled spirits, while proof gallons” are the only representative of actual quantity, yet as the trade between the dealer aind coiisimer is uniforinly caried on by wine gallon, and as, under the foderal stat- utes and those of the' state, the dealer as such is prohibited from mixingz hquors, we hold that the term quantity s used in the with reference to distilled spir 1 wine and not proof gallon. Section 2045 of the Code provides the barrel shall be called “thirty-one and a half_gailons.”” Hence wo hold that the report of ‘the quantity of dis- tilled spirits by the barrel has, under the statute, and commercial usage, a defi- nite meaning, to-wit: thirty-one and a half «allons, and as to the quantity, is a_compli- ance with the law, ‘Thereport of freight paid, think, is sufliciently definite, being at 50 much per gallon, and from which and the port s e wiicd Daid par gatton I costs can be accurately detérmined. 'Having ar- rived at these conclusions as to the manner of estimating the quantity of liquors as con- templated in the statute, we hold it entirely possible to determine from each of these ré- horts each particular required to be reported, Whether they will account for all liquors on hand and purchased, or show that all sales were within the profits allowed, we have not determined, as the plaintiff does not rest his actlon upon either of tlese causes, The mo- tion is sustalned aud verdict ordered for the defendant, In the No. 7796, between the same par- , submitted to the court the three reports evidence, show that in giving the kind ot liquors sold and the purposes for which sold, the columns for those purposes are blank. For instance, here is a sale ot whisky to AR for medical purposes, properly entered, 'he vext line shows a sale to O D———, but is blank as to the kind of liquor and purpose for which sold—not even the usual “do”™ mark to indicate that it was of the same kind or for the same purpose s last above. The law imperatively requires the kind and ‘mmuw to be shown, and while we might hold that the use of *“do” or the usual mark wassufticient, we think the blank columns of these reports do not show the kinds sold nor the purpose for which sold, and the defendant s liable to the penalt preseribed. Judement against the de endant for $300, one-halt | favor of the sehool fund of Polk county and one- half in favor of the relator, D. Littleton, It is a commonly ac ted belief t it is im- possible to make the reports required. Whon tis understood that the wine gallon is the measurement by which they are to be made, there can be no dificully in making pur- chases and sales balance with reasonable accuracy by allowing the proper per cent for leakage and evaporation that does unavoida- bly oceur. Prices paid, including freight, and prices received and profit charged con be shown with perfeet aceuracy. Every sale shoult be as fully stated as though it was the ouly one. ~The Kind an1 purpose should ba fully written, and the writing so legible and durable as to'a suspicion, I go beyond the cases before me to make these siggestions because the subject scems 0 be much mis- understood.

Many tales were told of Mm Brun’s extravagance, says Clara Erskin lement, writing on “Art and Artists’ in St. Nichoias for March; but her own account of an entertainment which she ve, and which was u subject of endless shows how little she merited in that instance, at least. She number of ning to lists > the reading of a poet. In the afternoon, while her brother read to her an account of an ancient frecian dinner, which even 2 the rules for cooking un determined upon im k suppur for her guest instructed her cook as to the prey of the food, and then she borrowed f a dealer whom she knew some cups, vases, and lamps, e R studio with the e h knows have to make. Among her guests were several beauti- ful women, and they all wore costume as much like the old Greek costumes as vas possible in the short time for pre tion. Mme. Le Brun wore the white blouse in which she always paint ed, and added a veill and crown of flowers. Her little daughter and another child were dressed as pages, and carriod antique vases. A eanopy W hung above the table, and the guests were placed in picturesque attitudes, and the whole efleet such that when the later shed the door of the supper-room they had u delightful sur- prise. It was us if they had been trans- ported to another age and elime; a k song was chanted” to the music of the Iyre, and when honey, grapes, and other ishes were served after the Greek man- ner the enchantment was complete; a member of the company recited odes from a Greek poet of ancicut times, and all passed ul)'«\n ghtfally. The fame of this novel £ all over Paris, and its magnificenc its costs were said to be marvelou; of the court ludies asked Mme. Le Brun to repeat it, but she refused, and they were disturbed by it. The king was told that the supper cost 20,000 fruncs, but one of the gentlomen who had been’ pre seut told his majesty the truth. However, the sum swelled to 40,000 by the time the story res I Rome. Mme Le Bruo writes: © At the Buaroness de remar! friends for an ov an artist Strogonoff told me that Thad spent 60,000 {mncs for my Greok supper; that at 'St Petersbnrg the price was at length fixed at 80,000 francs, and the truth is that that supper cost me about 15 francs,” - TWO $TORIES.
