finding no violations of the law to
just Ify an arrest, the officers of course
made none, but some of the citizens
who had a hand n tlie matter claim
that the method of proceed lire In
the club stand is contrary to law and
they proparo to present the matter
to the next grand jury. Tlie club Is
conducted here, as we understand,
upon the same principle as they are
elsewhere In the Mate In a legal man-
ner, but If not It Is likely that bills
will return by the next grand jury.
At about the same hour similar
institutions were entered by the offi-
cers at Btephenrllle, which recoiled
in one case of several barrels of whis-
key and wines being non Bscs ted by
tW sheriff and the place of boatoaro
closed.

men of the highest business ability
and integrity, who are Intimately

H^c But they have each had
troubles as we kll tiers troubles.
Ttielr troubles, however, are of a
different nature to most of ua, for as
a matter of fact most people want to
make as much trouble for everybody
alee as they can, while the gentlemen
who own these automobiles have de-
voted their entire at tent loo the peat
week or two In preventing trouble
for ot tiers.
The animals of locomotion here-
abouts are generally not acquainted
with the automobile*—ilia kind that
“no push#, no pules but runes likes
anything alls aamee." and hence
when tlie noiseless little machine
comes along they attempt to jump
ot« a brisk house or a yard fence or
whatever other Impediment might
be In the way of their escape.
