AN ANARCHISTS PLOT.
How a Little Man and His Little T

How Little Man and His Little Tin
Cox Cleared Saloon.
II want $40 toward the fund for send
ing a regiment of unemployed men to
Washingtonr'
A small, bearded man yesterday
entered an uptown saloon, and taking
up a position in front of the bar, thus
made demand on the proprietor.
You do, eh?'' calculated the dispenser
of fluids. "Well, you won't get it!'
81 tell you, SIR" said the stranger in a
wild and excited manner, THAT | must
have it, and you've got to give that
much!'
And tell you" responded the mix
ologlst, who was now getting hot with
anger, THAT l won't give you cent, and
II you don't get out OF here ID quick
Pll-throw -"
There was something in the visitors
looks and movements that caused the
saloonkeeper to cut snort his remarks.
The visitor had advanced step nearer
the bar and thrusting his hand inside the
breast of his coat, he roared in tragic
manner:
"Ifyou don't come down with that $40
for the unemployed, pll blow your
ID saloon of the street,"
And striding UP TO the bar he laid
thereon small tin box with a short fuse
attached. Quick as a flash he struck a
match, touched it to the fuse and then
broke for the door.
So did the saloonkeeper and about a
dozen loungers in the place. a party of
card players overturned table i'll their
mad rush TO escape being blown to pieces
by the bomb. They all got out safely and
then turned TO witness the destruction of
the saloon.
But they waited in vain. The proprietor
remembe bered that he didn't wait to gather
up bis cash register, and he was about to
venture into the saloon to recover il,
when the little man with the long beard
yelled out from the sidewalk opposite:
You blamed ijit, don't you know this
is April FOOLS Day ?'
Come, boys. take one with me-" said
the proprietor, as he emptied the sand
out OF the box. That was a good one 2"
That's right!'' chimed in the other
fellows.

YOUNG MAN ARRESTED.

He Forged Cincinnati Railroad
Superintendeut's Name.
Captain Greene and Officer Higgins
made an important capture on Saturday,
arresting a young man about 20 years
old named. Alex Paris, on telegram
from the Chief of Police of Cincinnati, 0.
The charge against him was forging the
name of the Railroad Superintendent
under whom he held position.
On entering drawing-room car they
fo und the young man, who had been
spending money lavishly on his way
across the continent and who travelled
under the name OF c. w. Hutchinson.
He protested Indignantly against his
1t: rest, denying his Identity, but on ar
rival at the station house he weak ened
and admitted it. He also acknowledged
the forgery, stating that he had held an
important place III the office.
In his valise were found number of
checks on the National Bank of Cincin-
natl, ranging in amount from $40 to $3.50
and amounting i'll all to about s. 200
They all purported to he signed by Ryan,
the railroad superintendent. lie also
had about $50 IN green backs in his pock-
cts. In his valise also was a letter to his
mother in which he admitted that he had
committed the forgery.
The Cincinnati authorities were noti-
fled and an answer received that an oifi-
Ger would start Saturday night to take
back the prisoner.

Young HoodIuns.

A large number of boys collected at
Seventh and streets last night and threw
flour and eggs upon passers-by. Another
gang took their stand between Fifth and
Sixth streets and did the same thing, di-
recting their attention more especially to
Cinnamon.
The nuisance became so bad that Myron
Lafayette, Joe Bloomberg, Homer Mona
CHAN, Lazarus BloOmberg and Charles
Perkins were arrested. They considered
this a smart way of celebrating April
Fools Day, but have doubtless changed
their minds by this time.
A number of men not only encouraged
the boys in their hoodlumism but jeered
and abused the officers when they made
the arrests.

Trumpler against j. p. Odbert, Mrs. Od-
bert and George 4. Odbert, their son, to
recover on Judgment for g. 493 obtained
in September, 1893. The obligation was
incurred in 1888.

ecution was issued upon the judgment
against the real and personal property of
Odbert, but the execution was returned
by the Sheriff unSa.istied.
The complainant alleges that in Janu-
ary, 1891, Odbert and wife decided their
property to their son for the purpose of
detrauding creditors and with the fraud
ulent intent of hlnderjng and delaying
the enforcement OF j. z. Odberts liabil-
ity.
Wherefore the plaintiff prays that the
deed be adjudged fraudulent and VOID,
and that the title To the farm be adjudged
in j. p. Odbert; that the defendants be
eniOined from disposing of or mortgaging
the farm: that receiver be appointed
and that the farm be sold and the pro-
ceeds be applied in payment Of the judg-
ment held by plaintiff. HOll Il Dunn are

THE CURFlEW BELL.
Boys Will Do Well to Hunt Their
Homes When it Rings.


For the first time in several years the
"Curfew bell' tolled last night. A reso-
luton was passed last Monday night by
the Board Of Trustees to the effect that
the ordinance. which has been enjoying a
Rip Van Wrinkle sleep, should be en-
forced.
As it was generally known that Chief
Drew was III favor of its enforcement, the
boys were evidently on the lookout for
squalls. The officers had scattered them
pretty we'll a couple OF hours before but
some still fingered on the streets. Within
five minutes after the bell toIled, at 8
o'clock, however, scarcely boy was to be
seen on } or X streets below Tenth, except
d few who were hurrying home, and the
shouts and cat-calls with which the
streets generally resound till late hour
were all huShed. AS the Trustees and
the Chief of Police are determined to en-
force the ordinance, it behooves boys
who do not wish to spend night in the
City Prison to keep OFT the streets after

SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION.
A Gathering of the County Schools
Here Last Evening.

A Gathering of the County Schools
Here Last Evening.
The Salt Lake stake Sunday school
officers and teachers met last evening
in the Fourteenth ward assembly rooms,
Superintendent T. C. Griggs, presiding.
Most of the city schools were repre-
Isented, as also were the schools of Big
Cottonwood and Union and Farmers
wards.
The musical exercises were excellent
and were furnished by the Union ward
Sunday school choir, under the direc-
tion of Brother William E. Cox.
Opening prayer was offered 10y Super
intendent Charles 'Denney, of Union.
After the calling of the roll Superin-
tendent Griggs expressed his pleasure
in reporting the success of the recent
Sunday school conference. Also in not
ing the ready response in filling appoint
ments made for the interchange of
visits of superintendent in the city
schools. Arrangements would shortly
be made to have the school superinten-
dents Of the county visit the city
schools.
The speaker continued in a brief ad-
dress and suggested that the harmony
and discipline of the Sabbath schools
could be better maintained if officers
and teachers would always be at their
post of duty; and where it would be
impossible to get there, a. written ex-
cuse should always be sent in to avoid
disappointment. and that arrangements
may be made to fill vacancies, and the
work of the school continue without
interruption.
Tfsa Importance of holding regular
teachers meetings, for consultation,
counsel and arrangement of work was
urged upon the officers of the Sabbath
schools. Those schools which kept up
this practice were generally more sue
cessful.
There are in this stake several wards
with two or three schools, organized
under the direction of the bishopric Of
the ward. As soon as they are strong
enough they should be fully organized
and be treated in all respects as

AFFAIRS OF THE CITY.
MEETING OF THE POLICE AND FIRE
COMMISSIONERS.
A Complaint Against Sergeant Ford
Exp1afned-The Nightwatchmen--
Hearing in the Rhodes Ease To-
day-Chicf Pratt in the Harness.

The regular weekly meeting Of the
board of police and fire commissioners
was held last evening. The session
was short, but several matters of pub
lie interest were considered, one of
which was soon stripped of its sensa-
tional features
A communication was received from
NJ. Tobias, complaining that Police
Sergeant Ford was Withholding the
sum of $3.65 out of the amount stolen
from complainant by Nellie Davis The
sergeant explained in a letter to the
board that he had been instructed by
Assistant District Attorney Howat to
hold the money, as it was claimed by
the attorney who defended the colored
woman The matter was referred to
the city attorney.
The clerk was directed to order a set
of double swinging harness from the
Hale company, of Kansas City, for the
police patrol team.
Bids for fitting up the new police
court room were opened and referred
TO the council committee on fire and
police. The bids were as. follows:
Taylor, Ronney, Armstrong Co.. 1875 90
Sierra Nevada Lumber Co... 307 90
Salt Lake Building and Mfg. Co. 26O 90
G.. j. Patterson. Observation-Disclosures. 219 90
Cnlef Pratt submitted the FOLLOWING
roster of special patrolmen and watch
men:
Oscar Eman, Thomas Dobson, Da-
vid Nelson, Joseph w. Cottle, J. T..
Pack, P. c. Howell, Louis Stearns,
George B. Edgar, George Il. Houghton,
John G. Bird, Thomas Cooper, E.
Rogers, Thomas A. Dozier, Charles
Ringwood, Thomas Daniels, A. N.
Nordval, Joseph Eldredge and j. G..
McAllister.
The chief stated that while all the
names We're not acceptable to- him, be-
cause some of them had failed to re-
port as directed. and others were al
legged to be derelict in their duties. he
would not oppose the reappointn1ent
of the nightwatchmen on the roster if
the property-owners and residents along
their beats, and who pay for their SER
vices, requested the continuance of
police powers to them.
Clerk Felt was instructed to prepare
to compile the first annual reports of
the police and fire departments, under
the direction of the board.
The board then adjourned till this
afternoon, when the trial of Patrolman
Rhodes, for alleged conduct unbecom-
ing an officer, will be commenced.

Chief Pratt in the Harness.

When Chief of Police Pratt yester-
day noon resumed the reins of control
over the police department both he and
Detectives Sheets and Ferguson were
heartily congratulated over their re-
lease from the United States marshal's
custody. The congratulations came
thick and fast throughout the day and
evening. With the chief again in the
saddle the police commissioners retired
from command, which they had held
the last week. The sense of duty that
every subordinate officer exercised so
commercially made the task of the
commissioners less onerous, but that
they steered the craft so well in the
chiefs absence is largely due to Desk
Sergeant Macintosh whose signal
ability in the pilot box almost con-
tinuously, day and night, proved to be
OF unalloyed worth. ''Billy's" knowl-
edge of departmental details came in
mighty handy this time.
