The Appellate Court for this district will decide on Monday what is known as the "Kenna case," whereby it Is sought to close the saloons of Chicago on Sundays. In this case, so called because the saloon of Alderman Michael Kenna is named as the basis for the petition, the court Is asked to issue a writ of mandamus ordering; the Mayor to close all saloons in Chicago on Sundays. Were such a writ to. issue, there would be nothing for the Mayor to do but obey it. He might refuse,- but if he did he would promptly find himself in jail for con tempt of court, and no Mayor would care to do this, at least Mayor Busse says he would obey the court. In case the Appellate Court issues OLDEST MEMDBR OREGON STATE GRANGE, 4 I i 111! Omrar Euton, Chnplain. EUGENE, Or., May 16. (Spe cial.) The oldest active mem ber of the Oregon State Grangre is Oscar Eaton, chaplain of the State Grange; which completed its annual session here yester . day. Father Eaton, as he is known to hundreds of Grangers in the state, is SS years old, yet he is very active in mind and body. He has been chaplain of the State Grange for years and was re-elected at the annual election Wednesday. He is also chaplain of Oswego Grange and of his own, Pomona Grange. He has been very regular in at tendance at the meetings here and A1 ever needs any one to help him about. Of all the officers of the Oregon State Grange. Father Eaton is the only one who has a life-long lease upon the office. No one ever thinks of having any one else for chaplain of the Grange. the writ the question would at once be. "Is the Mayor bound to close the saloons a week from tomorrow?" It would be a curious situation, exactly the same as when the question whether the query, "Shall saloons be open sa loons?" should go on the "little" ballot recently was fought over. The only difference would be that the attorneys in the Kenna case on each side would have to take diametrically different views of the law from the views they took in the little ballot one. HALL'S NEWRESTAURANT Many old-time customers will be de lighted to know of the opening of this splendid modem restaurant.
