DOING SOME DIRTY WORK.
An Editor Who rs Inviting o'aA
mer vacation in tlae Pen'

Comparisons are sometimes odorous as
we'll as odious, but the charge having
been made that the non-Mormon press OF
the Territory is vile, scandalous and
libelous in speaking of the Mormon peo-
pie, and that the opposite is the rule
when the Mormon press speaks OF the
non-Mormons, the following little extract
is reproduced from the columns OF the
Ogden Herald. 1t is very evident that
even the Deseret Nesgs can get great pig
handful of pointers" from the Ogden
sheet when there is any "cussing" to be
done. Here is the sweet, love-me-Jesus
paragraph that this Gentle hireling
writes under Mormon patronage:
GAS we now have it from the authority
of the Republican Federal anti" Nor
moi" tramps, a mormon" who ''holds
out" or "claims" two or more women as
his wives is guilty of unlawful cohab!ta-
ton and he is not allowed to prove him
self guiltless of the crime by showing be-
yond doubt that he never held sexual
intercourse with them, whereas non
mormon" who holds carnal relations, as
with wives, with two or a dozen women
is innocent of unlawful cohabitation. Old
Edmunds intended that his bill should
operate in the interest of morality, but
Zane and his henchmen have gracefully
thwarted his good intentions, in the in
terest of morality When Zane retires
from the bench, he ought to be pensioned
by the anti "Mormon" whoremongers of
Utah whom his rulings must please"

A Batch of Boys Up Before Judge
Speirs This Morning.

When Arthur Curtis, Raymond Curtis,
Lucien Adams and Joseph Ray, all under
fourteen years of age, were brought into
the Police Court this morning from the
city lookup, the sight was sad to all be-
holders. These are the four young boys,
OF six, who were arrested yesterday for
stealing cigars, ETC., from grocer SEN
tence was suspended on two of the six on
belief OF unintentional mischief, and
Judge Speirs let Lucien Adams and JOS
eph Ray go home to their parents after
talking to them of the shame and disgrace
they had brought upon their names by
bad associations. The boys expressed
their determination to abstain from bad
company hereafter and never again be
found IN trouble by anyone.
The Curtis boys were fined, one $40
and the other S., as the older boy had
been before the Court ON similar charges
before, and the Judge spoke in feeling OF
the urgent need of House of Correction
In Utah, where all neglected boys, who
are easily enticed into crime, can be sent
and taught to become good and useful
citizens, instead of developing into GRIM
mails, as is now the ca e under present
regulations. 1t seems that the Legisla-
ture should take the matter in hand and
provide an institution that has long been
required in Utah.

THE CURSE OF THE OURS.
A Little Girl Seriously Bitten by a
Useless Whelp.

Last Wednesday 13-year-old girl
named Margaret Goodwin, living at
MIR. Fyson's, called at a house on Eighth
East street, between Brigham and First
South, to make an inquiry. She had no
sooner entered the yard than large
vicious dog, OF the Newfoundland specie,
sprang upon the terrified girl with the
fierceness of a wild beast. A gentleman
present in the yard rescued her and she
was in the act of leaving when the dog
started fol her a second time, and bit her
right arm above the elbow in a bad man
ner. The owner of the canine expressed
his willingness to have the cur killed, as
it was necessary to keep it chained up
the most of the time. A doctor examined
the bite, which is not dangerous, though
on account of warm weather and the en-
ragged condition of the animal the injury
was somewhat alarming.
This morning the little girl, accom-
panied by her mother, appeared before
Prosecuting Attorney Fletcher and swore
out a complaint against Mr.. Simons, the
owner OF the dog which is claimed to be
fierce and dangerous. The fact is again
made evident that Salt Lake has alto
gether too many useless dogs, and they
should be taxed to lessen the number,
and if that does not meet the demand
they should be Gagged and disposed of to
the next circus or drowned in the Jordan

GATHERING THEM IN.
Commissioner McKay's Court Again in
Operation.
Charles L. White Jerked OH a Charge
of Illegal COhab.
His Alleged Second Wife Doesn't Re
member, and " Declines TO
Answer"

Charles L. White, 26-year-old man OF
the Nineteenth ward, was arrested this
morning by Deputy Marshal Collin on
complaint issued by Commissioner Nc
Kav and signed by United States Mar
shall Ireland. Mr. White is charged with
unlawful cohabitation with more than
one woman at the same time, the COM
plant claiming that since July 1st, 1882,
and on divers other days and times be-
tween said date and this day of exhibit
ing the complaint, Mr.. White did live,
contrary to the law, with one Mrs. Sarah
White, his first wife, and Mary Ann Star
key, his alleged second wife.
At 10 o'clock this morning the defend
ant, his two alleged wives and Mr.. George
White, his father, appeared before Com
missioner Mckay, little the worst scared
lot of beings that have been arraigned
before this especial court. They were
excused until o'clock this afternoon IN
order to secure sureties for the defendant
and several witnesses. The following
persons were subpenaed: Mrs. Charles
L. White and Elizabeth White, the al
legged wives, William Wyanes and wife,
Mr.. Connolly and wife, Mr.. Starkey and
wife, and George White.
At O'Clock Elizabeth Ann Starkey
was called, by request of the prosecution,
and examined with the following results
She lived in the Seventeenth ward and
was II years old knew defendant two
or three years, and was part of the time
in the house with White, about one half
of the time. She testified that she knew
Mrs Margaret H. White. who lived with
White in the Nineteenth Ward. She
said there were three rooms in the house
one kitchen, another bedroom and
the other a work shop, used as bed
room at night.
When asked if she occupied one of
these rooms with White, she replied
that
SHE DECLINED TO ANSWER,
And also replied the same as to whether
she was married to defendant. She de-
clined to give any reason for refusing to
answer, and by the request OF Attorney
Richards and Mr.. Hardness q private
consultation was permitted with the wit
ness.
VII returning, MI DlChoOh again t1ohOu
the witness whether or not she had ever
occupied the same bed with the defend
ant at any time during the past three
years, to which she declined to answer.
On being asked whether at any time dur
ing the three years last passed she had
gone through any marriage ceremony,
She still declined to answer.
Witnesses and the accused were held
over until 4 o'clock this afternoon for
bonds and continuation of the examina-
ton
The young lady Mary Ann Starkey is a
frail child in appearance, and presented
a pitiable sight as the alleged defiant wife
and witness in 80 serious a case.

"THE PRIVATE SECRETARY
TIE Reigning London and New
York Laughing Success

One Of the treats OF the season is the
announcement OF the approaching en-
gagement of the Madison Square Theatre
Company in "The Private Secretary"
The Chicago Erening Journal OF May "A,
1885, said OF the play:
"Among all the farcical comedies pre-
scented at the theatres of this city during
the present season there is not one bet
ter calculated to create genuine mirth
than The Private Secretary as presented
by the Madison Square Theatre Com
pany, which began twoweeks' engage
ment at the Grand Opera House last
night. The attraction has been here be-
fore, but time has robbed it of none of
it's interest. There was not vacant
seat on the main floor of the Grand last
night, while the upper parts of the
house were well filed. The grotesque
makeup of Mr. William Gillette in the
character of Rev. Robert Spaulding, the
new Private Secretary, even when unac-
companied by any act on his part, con-
vulses the audience. His lank form and
eccentric manners are side-splitting in
their simplicity, while his expression OF
the phrase DO you k-n-o-wY is apt to
threaten obese people with apoplexy.
His sanctimonious appearance and tone
of voice are not exaggerated, but fit him
as naturally as well-made coat, Each
member OF the company, without excep-
ton, is good, and this general excellence
contributes much to the very satisfactory
result"
The sale of seats for the engagement of
the Madison Square Company, which
commences Wednesday, June oath, will
open at the box office at the Theatre on
Monday morning. "The Professor"
another Madison Square comedy success,
will be given on Friday and Saturday
evenings next.
