THE CoRoNER's FEES.

THE CORONER'S FEES.
County Attorney Murphy has submitted
the following to the county court:
ITO the County Court of Salt Lake County:
"The question submitted to me as to the
payment by the county Of the fees of the
coroner for holding inquests, ETC., is
whether such fees are payable by the
county until and unless it is shown that
there is no estate of the decedent from
which they could be obtained. Section
2l93, compiled laws, 1888, provides that if
there be no friends of the decedent present
the coroner shall cause the body to be
buried, and the expense to be paid from
any property of the deceased, and if there
be none, from the county treasury etc.
Section 2l94 specifies the coroner's fees and
provides, the above fees are to be paid
from the county treasury when they can
not be obtained from the estate of the
deceased These sections are drIUn aUith the
greatest cGreleSsneSS, and are difficult to con-
strue. I am of the opinion, however, that
it is the duty of the coroner to
make diligent inquiry and search
to ascertain whether the decedent
has property: that if money is found upon
the person of the decedent and belonging
to him, the coroner may appropriate it to
pay the burial expense and fees-or so
much OF it as may be necessary-or that he
may so appropriate any other money law
July coming into MS possession, and be-
longing to the decedent's estate. That if
he find other persons having money of the
decedent's in their possession, he may law
fully demand and they may give him so
much as is necessary for the purpose. But
that if they refuse, he has no power or
means, as coroner, to compel them to hand
it over to him.
"That although he is empowered to
cause the funeral expenses ito be paid
from any property of the deceased, yet
the statute provides no method or machin-
cry by which this power may be exercised,
and, therefore, that the coroner cannot
convert land or chattels or any species of
personal property other than money into
money for the purpose of raising a fund for
such expenses-or for the statutory fees.
THAT in view of the trifiing amount of
the coroner's fees-of the fact that they
always become due before letters tesla
mentary or of administration issue upon
the decedent'S estate, of the fact that the
grant of such letters is often delayed fol
months or years after the death, and of the
fact that all the decedent's estate might be
in distant state or country-it would be
almost preposterous to construe the law as
intending that the coroner must in the
hrst instance present his claim to the ex
ecutor or administrator, or himself petition
Tor letters as creditor.
81 am of opinion that the coroner must
use due diligence IN endeavoring to obtain
payment from money of the decedent OF
his person or in the possession of others
and TO obtain such payment from any per
son having any property of the decedent il
his possession, or from the heirs, but that
having done this and failed, and hayinG
proved it to your satisfaction, his fees, etc
may be paid by the county.

Not Burdened with Bappare

"John B. Weller was an Ohio politician
in the way back days." said an old gentle
man who was entertaining several young
men in the wheat pit of the board OF trade
The crowd had been talking about Ohio
men just before the hurrah broke in.
John went to California in the early
days, and think he was elected governor
or lieutenant governor, l don't remember
which, of that state. He came back to Ohio
once afterward on a visit. On his return to
California he went by vessel, as that was
the only way of going in those days unless
you went overland, which wasn't always
safe. The vessel on which John returned
was wrecked on Roncador reef, and the
passengers lost all their baggage.
'sThey also had to subsist on anything
that country had and live in huts until
another vessel came to carry them on home.
Finally they all succeeded in reaching
Frisco. Many friends of the rescued met
them at the pier. Some of Weller's adj
mirers welcomed him. He gave them a
graphic account of the wreck and the sur

Did you save anything?' asked one OF
the friends who had listened.
| Not thing but my character was
! the reply.

had known Weller in Ohio, you arrived in

A German Peasants idea of America.

Americans who leave the beaten track Of
travel in Germany are always objects Of
more or less interest to the people. There
is the curiosity due to the great distance
that the visitors have come from, and be-
sides German who has not relative or at
least friend in this country is a rarity.
The traveller is asked all kinds of questions
about the United States, and often most
lamentable ignorance is displayed by the
Germans about the distant country. A
case in point is related bya New Yorker
who spent some time one summer in vii
lage in Hanover, at some distance from a
railroad. He was visiting physician whom
he had met at Berlin in the university days
of both of them.
One afternoon the physician, accom-
panied by his friend, drove to farm house
to visit a sick child. When he alighted
the American remained in the vehicle. In
the course of his call the physician hap
pened to mention that his companion was
| from the United States. As they drove
away an old lady rushed out of the house.

to stop. They did this, and she ran up, al
out of breath, shouting:
| 'How is my son? He is in America"
She did not hear of the New Workers. na

house, and ran to make inquiry about hel
son, who had been in America for fifteer

Birds in Tug of War.

Two sparrows-one big, the other little
simultaneously swooped down upon a
piece of cotton cord in frc 1T of the City
Hall the other day. Both wanted it and
both pulled, but without visible advantage
to either bird. Then began real tug of
war.
Of course the smaller sparrow was heavi-
ly handicapped in the matter of weight,
but this he more than made up in skill and
strength. For few moments they stood
firmly braced on the asphalt walk and
pulled with all their might. Finding their
efforts against each other futile, they, with
a common impulse, few upward without
relaxing their hold upon the coveted OBJ
ject, and continued in midair the struggle
for the string.
Once off the ground the smaller sparrow
appeared to figure more conspicuously, foI

General Notes.

The cry of "fire' aroused the populace
this morning about o'clock. In the direc-
ton of the depot the flames were towering
high and large crowd fastened to the
scene of devastation. The fire engine and
hose cart were out i'll almost less time than
it takes to relate it, after the alarm had
been given, but it was too late to save the
property that was being destroyed.
Mr.. L. G. Gibby sustained the loss of his
barn, two horses, COW, carriage, some
hay and other minor articles There was
struggle made to extricate the equines
from the flames through an open door, but
the animals refused to leave their place of
Judgement despite the bowling of the sur
rounding mob. The cause of the fire is
said to be through the carelessness of
tramps in lighting cigarettes. Mr.. Gibby
is newcomer from Salt Lake city. The
first to cry fire were a number Of boys who
were emerging from Jesse knights saloon.
