ger and an Englishman named William
Wright had lived with him. As he under
stood it, the two were brothers-in-law, and
had visited America for the purpose of es-
tablishing themselves in business. Wright
had gone away one day early in February,
and Ruttinger was last seen by him on the
succeeding day. They left all their bag
gage and owed him no money.
So far the search for Wright has devel-
oped nothing but theories. One surmise
is that he was the castor House suicide"
who registered as Fred Evans and cut his
throat in bedroom. Another is that the
body discovered is not that. of Ruttinger,
but of some one else, and that the Stuff
garter is in hiding to await the collection
of big insurance he carried on his life.
Some people suggest that the case is an
other Preller- Maxwell affair, but at the
present all that can be said about it and
backed with proof is that it is murder

A painter was commissioned to portray
the image of saint on the refectory wall
of convent The price stipulated was
very low, but it was agreed that the artist
should have his meals provided at the ex-
pense of the convent, until his work was
finished. 1t turned out that the only food
supplied to the poor artist by the reverend
fathers consisted of bread, onions and clear
water. The day for unwilling the fresco
at length arrived. The friars stood round
the artist, the curtain was removed. 1t
was no doubt very fine picture, but
the saint had his back turned toward The
spectators.
"What does this mean?" shouted the in
dignant prior.
"Padre. l was compelled to paint the
picture as you see it, for the saint could
not bear the smell of onions I'll Carlino.

Officer POOLS Statement.

When the motion for new trial in the
Diamond case came up for hearing before
Judge Zane Wednesday, the affidavit Of
Officer Pool was offered in support of the
motion, and he also testified. From both
the inference would naturally be drawn
that the officer kept the facts in his posses
sion from the defense by order of Marshal
Y oung. Mr.. Pool states positively that
such was not the fact, and feeling that an
injustice had been done the marshal, he
sends in the following statement:
To the Editor Of the HERAID:
/ wish to state that l never told Marsha
Young nor anyone else what I knew in re
gard to Diamonds case until after the trial
and conviction of MIR. Diamond. When ]
did inform Marshal Young he advised me
to tell what I knew in regard to the matter.
This statement is voluntary. Yours truly,

The Warning.


You say that you love me, John, dear,
And swear that your love is true,
But oh, will you not prove faithless,
AS other men often do2
Love often pales and withers
And warm hearts grow strangely cold
When the freshness Of youth has departed
And the kiss Of the wife is old.
Comely, perhaps, now am
Smooth is my brow and fair,
But oh, there will come day, dear,
When time will place wrinkles there;
Over my brow the ringlets
Now CLEAN in the silv'ry light,
But the summer that follows the spring time
May change them from black to white.
I am not rich in gold, John,
And if / become your bride
Wemust struggle with thousands and thou
sands
Now fighting against the tide;
"'Twill then be too late for repinfng,"
She sighed, as she raised her head,
But the chair Of her John was vacant;
He had swiftly and noiselessly fled.

Union Pacific Coal Production.

The statistics of the production of coal
by the Union Pacific Railroad company for
the year 1890 shows that the operations of
the company in Colorado have greatly de-
creased, whilst their production in Wyom-
ing and Utah have steadily increased. The
work of collecting the statistics of the
mineral production of 1890 in the Rocky
Mountain division for the United States
geological survey is being carried on by F.
+. Chisholm, who has charge OF this divi-
sion it and is from that source that the Union
Pacific output is obtained, For the year
1890 Wyoming produced /, 134, 372 tons, Utah
Il, 532 tons and Colorado Sc, 2l3 tons. These
figures include only lump coal and run of
mine; nut coal and slack are not calculated.

AN OFFER TO LEASE.
Il. W. Whitney offered to lease his build
ing on Eighth West street to the board for
school purposes at rental of 500 per
month. Referred to the committee on sites.
TIE FIRST WARD SITE.
In regard to the proposed purchase of the
school site in the first ward, Attorney P L.
Williams submitted the following opinion
return herewith papers left me in relation to
cleSlastlcal authorities of the First ward GER
tain school property. I see from the CORES
pondence accompanying that the ecclesiastical
authorities through Joseph Warburton, have
declined to carry out the proposed sale by them
ana purchase by the board. 1 have looked over
the minutes of the meeting and 1t appears in
those minutes that one of the trustees at
school meeting, IN behalf Of the board of
trustees, read statement in which he stated
proposition Offering to sell the ground specified
| for the sum of $1,000. After discussion and the
was made and adopted authorizing the trustees
| to negotiate with the ward authorities for the
purchase, so 1t seems that something more was
considered to be necessary than the mere
| acceptance OF the proposition. The oral
agreement was not to sell to Salt Lake City
school district but to the school district of the
| First ward, SO that If valid contract had been
entered into and executed 1t would be ques-
| ton OF uncertainty as to whether Salt Lake
city school district could enforce it. I am of
the opinion that an effort 10 enforce this con-
tract would be futile and that 1t would be bad
policy and waste Of money to attempt to pro-
cure decree Of the court for the specific per-
| formance OF this contract, if indeed there ever
was contract consummated between the &C.
clesiastical authorities and the trustees OF the
| First ward. PARLEYL WILLIAMS.
Referred to the committee on sites and

CITY ADVERTISING.


The Contract Awarded to the s. Bee'
for the Coming Year.
The Board of City Trustees held spe-
cial meeting yesterday for the purpose Of
awarding the contract for doing the city
advertising for the next year.
Wells Drury, of the Neacs, claimed that
his offer was the lowest bona fide bid in
the possession of the board. The Bees,
he claimed, was not according to the call,
being indefinite. He offered to make an
amended bid if the board would give him
permission.
Y. S. McClatchy, of the Bee, argued
that his bid was in accordance with the
call made, and it was very plain that it
was the lowest one submitted. The new
charter, he said. would be published at a
rate agreed upon between the publishers
and the members of the board. The an
nual report of the Auditor, if the law re-
quires its publication. would be published
for nothing; if not, the board could pay
for it if it liked.
The board denied Drury's request to
file an amended or supplemental bid, and
on motion of Trustee Mclaughlin it was
unanimously resolved that the Mayor
enter into contract with the Bee for one
year.
