---THAT-
Drs. Shores 4 Shores
Salt Lakes Leading Specialists.
Their Wonderful Treatment Has Brought Health and
Happiness to Hundreds of Homes
BEST PEOPLE TESTIFY TO THE SKILL OF THESE PHYSICIANS
BEAD OLDEST RESIDENTS
IN THE TERRITORY.

During the past ten days hundreds
|of persons have applied to Drs. Shores
& Shores for treatment; in fact, the
number was so large it was impossible
to wait upon all in the regular office
hours, and Drs. Shores & Shores were
kept busy from o'clock in the morn
ing until $3.50 in the evening.
But it has proven to the public the
success of this new system; it has
proven to the public that Drs. Shores
& Shores are the leaders in their pro-
fession.
All patients VINO wish to continue the
treatment (over one hundred having
already applied, and to all new pa
tents who wish to take Drs. Shores &
Shores new treatment, will be sup
Piled with their new and valuable in
strument for the cure and treatment
OF catarrh, FREE OF CHARGE.
In taking treatment with Drs. Shores
d Shores you know where you are go
ing and know the success of this treat
ment, as hundreds of grateful patients
testify. While other So-called special
lists advertise So a month for catarrh.
it is hard to tell what you would be
charged for any other disease.
Drs. Shores & Shores do not throw
out any catch proposition; they are not
graduates in the taking line. They are
old residents in the territory and are
well and favorably known to almost
every resident in the city. They have
lived here before some so-called special
lists ever thought of coming to Salt
Lake, and as the people don't care
about experimenting. they consequent
ly go to physicians who have always
resided among them. Drs Shores &
Shores are not strangers. They don't
open office after office and fail. Thew
are physicians, and when man is
good in his profession and can give
evidence Of his skill. it is not necessary
to have more than one office
Drs. Shores & Shores have only one
institute and that is in Salt Lake city.
They devote their time and attention
ITO their business, with what success
the public can see. That they are sue
cessful in their various speciaIties, is
proven by the testimony presented each
week from the very best residents of
Salt Lake city.

CLOSED DOWN A RAILROAD.
Colonel Blunt Refused 1t Passag,
Across the Reservation.

Across the Reservation.
A notice from Colonel Blunt, COM
manding the forces at Fort Douglas,
rather partaking of the nature of a
command, defeated the objects for
which the Pioneer Canyon Railway
company was organized. This COM
pany had purchased mule cars and
made all arrangements to operate over
the abandoned tracks of the Salt Lake
and Fort Douglas railway, by permits
sion of the company, between the eros
sing of the. Salt Lake City Railroad
company in the military reservation
and the Pioneer grove in the mouth of
Emigration canyon. The first car was
scheduled to go over the line yester-
day morning, but failed to do so. The
cause was the notice received by the
company from Colonel Blunt. which
forbid the operation of the road and
called attention to the fact that the
franchise of the Salt Lake and Fort
Douglas was for a steam road. In
response to inquiries as to his objections
the colonel said he did not desire to
aid his soldiers in their search for
drink and amusementS which united
them for proper duty at the post. He
was evidently afraid that with the lit
tie road in operation the soldiers would
find it very attractive to go over to the
grove and the result can be forecast.
He did not desire to aid in the de-
moraliZation of his service. The colonel
also forbid the operation of a dummy
steam line.
This is a crushing blow to the pro-
motors of the enterprise and will more
than likely knock all of their plans in
the head.

A slippery Customer,

H. o. Connor, young tough who
was in the city Jail awaiting a. hearing
in the Third district court on the
charge of incorrigibility, with a view
of his being sent to the reform school,
made his escape yesterday forenoon
and is still at large.
The boy, it appears, stealthily fol-
lowed Jailer Kimball down the stairs
from the female ward, and as the door
was opened made a dash into the yard
and out into the street, where he was
captured by Assistant Fire Chief Dono-
van, taken back and turned over to
Ki1nball, who seized him by the arm
and started across the yard for the
Jail. The boy, who appears to possess
the slipperiness of an eel, twisted him
self from the grasp of the officer and
took to his heels with half a dozen
policemen following. Conner was too
fleet for them, however, and made good
his eScaDe.

SOME HEAVY INTEREST PAYMENTS
Speculation as to the Cancellation of
Union Pacific Coupons.

| This is the great month of maturing
interest and the institutions and cor
porations of the territory will pay out
great sums in the redemption of cou-
pons taken from their bonds
The greatest local interest attaches to
the probable action of the Union Pacific
in the payment of the interest on its
bonds and those Of the Oregon Short
Line and Utah Northern. This interest
is due today but on account of the first
of the month falling on Sunday grace
will carry the payments over to Mon
day. Locally there are none so well
posted as to be able to foretell just what
action the powers that be will take, but
in the event of the failure of the pay
ment of the interest on the bonds of
the Oregon Short Line The indications
are that some of the bondholders will
ask for separate receivership. This
would more than likely make of Salt
Lake city the general headquarters of
the system. On the first of the year,
when another interest day was upon it,
the Union Pacific secured an order of
the court and the coupons were cancel
I led. The general opinion is that this
will be the course adopted this
month and it is more than likely
that the bondholders, many of whom
are Utah people, will receive their pay
The payment of interest and divi-
dends was inaugurated yesterday by
three home institutions. The Home
Fire Insurance company paid to it's
stockholders the sum of $3.50, the Co
operative Wagon and Machine COM
pany distributed a similar amount
among its holders of stock, and Heber
j. Grant & Co., paid out $780,
On Monday lions Savings Bank and
Trust company will pay its semi-annual
dividend Of $4,000 and the following
interest payments will be made:
Salt Lake city. $3.50, 1925
Territory of Utah.. 1880
Salt Lake and Ogden Gas and
Electric company. $4,000
Salt Lake City Railroad company. $4,000
Sumpter Valley Railroad COM
pany Observation-Disclosures. $500
During the present month a number
of dividend periods will arrive and the
indications are that nearly all will be
productive of revenue to the holders of
the securities

A SAD ACCIDENT.
Ten Year Old Samuel Graves
Drowned in Jordan Canal.

Drowned in Jordan Canal.
A sad drowning fatality occurred
yesterday afternoon in the Jordan
canal near the race track, of which
Samuel L. j. Graves, a ten-year-old
bow. son of w. A. and Eliza G. Graves
was the victim.
During the afternoon the lad, in COM
pany with some other boys of about
his own age went into the canal for a
bath at a point where the water is
shallow. Graves waded up the stream
and unfortunately stepped into noie
where the water is nine or ten feet
deep and being unable to swim quickly
went under. Another boy named Pas
ley attempted to rescue his friend and
came near sharing his fate. When
Graves was sinking for the third time
he caught hold of his would-be rescuer
by the foot and almost dragged him
under. The boys seeing they were
powerless to help their drowning
friend, ran to get assistance but it be-
ing fully half a mile to the nearest
house it was a long time before and one
came and as fate would have it, the
boys father, w. A. Graves, was the
first on the scene, but not knowing
the spot where his son sank valuable
time was lost in searching and it was
nearly an hour from the time he sank
before the body of the little fellow was
taken out of the water and then life
was extinct. DR.. Peet was quickly on
the scene ana worked for a couple of
hours applying the usual means of
restoration but without avail. Mr.
Graves resides in Burlington addition,
about half mile from the spot where
the drowning occurred. The funeral
will be held on Monday morning at 8
o'clock, the interment will be at the
Catholic cemetery. The bereaved fam
lily have the sympathy of their neigh
bors and friends

FLOUR MILL PRODUCTS CUT.
Fifteen Cent Reduction just Made
by the Mills.

Fifteen Cent Reduction just Made
by the Mills.
Mill products have been reduced in
price all along the line This is the re-
suit of the action of the members of
the Salt Lake Millers' association at
their last meeting. 1t was shown that
wheat is now plentiful at 65 cents and
inasmuch as the advances made during
the past three months were forced upon
the millers by reason of the continued
advance in the price of the grain it
was deemed advisable to meet the new
conditions with a Is cent cut in the
price of all mill products.
This will be gratifying news to the
consumers of flour and other kindred
products. 1t is stated that this cut is
not likely to be the last, the wheat
market now being on the decline, with
holders anxious to unload at the going
price. One of the members of the as
ISOLATION stated last evening that the
cause Of the slump is the near approach
of the new grain season and the splen-
did outlook for crops which are said to
be heavier than during any previous
year. All of the mills are well stocked
with wheat and large movements are
not very frequent.
At the meeting of the association
held yesterday afternoon the reduction
in the prices was approved and con-

WHAT THE COUNTY DEBT is.
Paying Eight Per Cent Interest ON a
Quarter of n Million,

raging EIGHT Pef cent interest ON q
Quarter of u Million.
The outstanding Indebtedness of Salt
Lake county is now represented by
registered warrants to the amount of
$230,000. all of which are darwing in
'terest at the rate of per cent. This
condition was probably not foreseen by
the property owners in the county
when they voted down the proposition
to bond. Two times did they declare
against running the county into debt
and yet they are now paying per
cent. interest on money which could
have been secured at per cent The
proposition to bond, and it now seems
to be the only manner in which the
rapidly increasing debt can be wiped
out, is again being talked of but it is
hardly probable that the people will
again be given an opportunity of vot-
ing for or against during the life OF
the present court.
