A CERTAIN coal dealer in this city
announced. yesterday, that he was
about to sell coal to the poor at the
same rates that Mr.. Nathan Straus
sells it at in New York. There is
something about this that needs ex-
PLANTATION. Is this a business enter
prise or is it pure philanthropy? If
the latter, We must say it is extraor-
binary, for Mr.. Straus sells coal at
absolute cost price, and the spectacle
of a long-established dealer doing this
is calculated to excite wonder before
any other emotion, especially as the
dealer in question has not heretofore
been reputsd a multi-millionaire. like
Mr.. Straus, but was regarded as pur-
suing his business for the sake OF an
income.
But if the scheme is purely a bust
ness one, that had letter be clearly
understood. Then, the people who
buy the coal will know just what
they are dealing in, and a great deal
of uncalled for and absurd puffery
will be avoided. If this is business,
why not make it business clean
through and through. If it is charity.
why then we would like to have the
whole inside of it disclosed for the
public e~dification, for on its surface
the offer made is incomprehensible

TORE OUT THE BOX.
Banker whitmorc of Nephi Charged with
Contempt of Court.

Banker Whitmorc of Nephi Charged with
Contempt of Court.
An interesting time was had in the
Third district court yesterday in the mat
ter of the arrest of George c. Whitmore,
the Nephi banker of ''gold brick' fame.
for an alleged contempt of court.
Some time ago the case of J.. A. Scott
Elliott VS.. George G. Whitmore ell al.
was tried before J. II. Harris, referee.
The question involved was the ownership
of valuable water rights on Grassy Trail
creek, and the referee found that the de-
PENDANTS were entitled to sixty-seven one
hundred fftieths Of cubic loot per sec
ond OF the water, and the plaintiff to the
balance. This finding was confirmed by
Judge Zane and later w. p. Har-
disty was appointed by the court as
commissioner to take charge of the matter
and construct a measuring box, which
would apportion the waters of the creek
according to the terms of the decree. Mr..
Hardesty did as directed and all was Sc
rene until last Sunday, when, according
to the allegations contained in the affi-
davit upon which Mr.. Whitmore was ar
rested, he tore out the measuring box and
since that time has diverted almost the
entire amount of water to his own use,
much to plaintiff s detriment.
On Friday an attachment issued out of
Judge Zans's court for the arrest of
Whitmore, and Deputy Marshal Redfield
of Provo soon had him in custody, after
which he was brought here to answer to
the charge of contempt.
The matter was called up yesterday
| morning, but Judge Zane continued it
unul 2 O'Clock, and at that hour Brown
& Henderson, attorneys for the defend
ant, argued a motion for continuance.
on the ground that they had not been
served with any papers in the case and
needed time to prepare defense.
&. S. Varian and John M. Zane an
peared for the plaintiff and objected
strenuously to any continuance being
granted, claiming that Mr.. Elliott would
be irreparably damaged if the matter wa
not adjudicated at once. After an ex-
tended argument the court allowed the
defendants one hour in which to answer
the complaint.
At the expiration of that term thew
again appeared in court and the defend
ants filed their answer to the affidavit of
the plaintiff. The answer denied that the
Third district court every procured juris-
dlction of the cause, and also denied that
the plaintiff had been deprived of anv of
his rights under the terms of the decree.
1t was further alleged that the box put in
by the commissioner of the court was not
such one as the decree provided for, in
asmuch as 1t gave plaintiff eleven Gu bic
feet of water per second instead of five
cubic feet per second, as required by the
decree; also, that plaintiff is still getting
the full amount OF water TO which he ia
entitled. After an argument which took
up the courts time until after 5 O clock
the case was set down for hearing on
next Saturday, and Mr.. Whitmore was
released on bond in the sum of g, 900.

Why Fred Wittmaack Was Brought Up
for Contempt.
In the case of Annie T. Wittmaack, a
hearing was had before Judge Zane on an
order upon the defendant to show cause
why he should not be punished for con-
tempt of court in attempting to dispose of
his property, after having been restrained
by the court from so doing. Mrs. Witt
mack filed an action for divorce against
her husband recently on the grounds of
drunkenness and cruelty, alleging that
she and the defendent were married at
San Francisco in 1889. In addition to a
decree of divorce, the plaintiff also prayed
for alimony. In the answer of defendant
he admits the marriage, but alleges that
the plaintiff had not been divorced from a
former husband, and that she was not
free to contract matrimonial obligations.
On May Is the defendant was restrained
from disposing of or encnmbering his
property, but on May 10 he drew out OF
| Wells, Fargo & Co.'s bank the sum oil
| 81 1884 .03 on his personal check. 1t was
then that the defendant was ordered to
show cause, if any, why he should not be
punished for contempt, and further that
he might be ordered to pay over to the
plaintiff an equitable sum for temporary
alimony.
The matter OF contempt, howeve, waE
not gone into, but after hearing the COM
plant and answer read, temporary ali
mony was allowed as follows: $100 for at
torney' fees, $50 per month for PLAINTIFF Is
maintenance and $40 as court costs.

The Third district court was in session
and number of brief matters were dis
posed OF.
The first matter to which his honor's
attention was given was the application
OF Mary ]. Poage for divorce from Graf
tan q. Poage, on the grounds of cruelty,
habitual drunkenness and adultery.
1t appears from the files in this case that
marriage in this particular instance is a
future beyond the peradventure OF a
doubt. The parties were married in this
city in 1876. On September 10, 1891.
Mrs. Poage fled an action for divorce
against her husband in the Third
district court, on the grounds OF
drunkenness and cruelty, and upon a
hearing the decree was granted. Later
the husband made many solemn promises
to abstain from and abjure forever the
! use Of Intoxicating liquors. and on jan
uary z, 1892, the parties Were married q
second time. Their happiness, however,
was short lived, as the husband fell into
his old ways and again made life miser-
able Tor the plaintiff. Aside from cruel
treatment, the plaintiff also alleged that
she gave the defendant money with
which to purchase cemetery lot and di-
rected him to take the title in her name,
but he took the title in his own name in
stead. He also admitted that he had
been guilty of adultery, and the plaintlf1
asked him to leave her. After hearing
the evidence the decree was granted.

divorce from Margaret Doxey yesterday
on the grounds of desertion. Mr.. Doxey
stated on the stand that he returned home
some months ago and found that his wife
had left. and since that time she had per-
sistently refused to return to him. The
plaintiffs son stated that he had talked
with the defendant (his step-mother
after the desertion, and she gave as hel
reason for the same that Doxey was no
''high -toned'' enough for her, and stated
that she wanted 'high-stepper. Or

A Mans Hints to Women

Don't hate other women so. Think OF
the way you look at one another on the
street. Don't keep all your politeness for
us.
Don't keep smoothing the wrinkles out
of your waist. A few wrinkles will keep
you from looking hideously smooth like
a fashion plate.
Don It have your skirt badly fastened at
the back so that your underskirt becomes
visible. You can't see this, and no
woman seems to tell you.
Don't get off car with your back to
the horses. Men get a great deal OF fun
out of your persistency in doing this.
But you are not bound TO amuse them.
Don't stand at the door of the street cal
and worry some man near at hand into
giving you seat when there are empty
seats at the head of the car. You all dc
this.
Don't leave your handkerchief and
, pocketbook in your lap when you are
riding in street car. Some man will

THETHEATRICAL CIRCLE
Mansfield in Besu Brummel and the
Scarlet Letter.
Interesting Notes and Comments of and
About Sarorite Actors and Actresses
Gossip of the stage, Etc.

One of the most interesting figures on
the American stage today is Richard
Mansfield, who will appear tomorrow and
Tuesday nights at the Salt Lake theatre.
Mr. H. is an actor of high aims and un-
new and striking material, and during
The last few years he has made many new
and notable productions of a high order
OF artistic merit. His remarkable bust
ness throughout the country this season
is significant of the fact that writing
drama, worShiIy presented, is what the
public really wants.
Mr. Mansfield has outgrown the hostile
feelings OF the gravest opposition. lie
has ever been o. persevering disposition,
and unwilling 10 admit defeat. In the
higher drama he oawned upon the
theatre goer as a modern revelation,
not better, but in equality with tbs best.
of rare education, and possessed OF un-
common ability, he backed the views OF
his own opinion and sustained the YER
dict OF those friends who predicted for
hiIn a brilliant future. No greater COM
pliEent has ever besn passed upon Mans
field than that Of his severe critics when
they said: 1--WE like MN Tor his own
ability"
The announcement OF his coming does
not proclaim him as a man OF greatness,
still it cannot be denied that he Is great
in his profession. His greatness has
been acquired with careful study and
through the possession Of 3 large amount
OF talent. It has been long since acl1nowl-
eyed that-he has created the field OF ro-
nance for himself. His bitteres5 expert
ences have been couched in The moss beds
of his earliest successes; his most painful!
reDroaches have been the expressions OF
the men he was pleased to call his friends.
But this is the simple history OF our ac-
tors great success.
1t is with pleasure that we note Mr.
Mansfield will appear st the Salt Lake
theatre on Monday and Tuesday even
ings, next.
It is very doubtful of the many plays
Mr.. Mansfield has in his repertoire-and
it is claimed that he possesses the
largest repertoire ever presented by staI
ST theatre goers had an opportunity to
choose for themselves, IL they would not
have mace the same selection Of plays
which Mr. Mansfield has decided tc
present. which.is as follows: Monday,

10 doubt IL will be some time before
Mr.. Mansfield will he in this city again.

fixture in New York.
