WON EN- WIN THE DAY.
Suffrage to Form q Plank in Utdh's State
Constitution.

SALT LAKE, March 19.-Utah's rep
resentative women had full and undis-
puted right of way before the committee
on elections and suffrage to-day, beginning
at 1920 o'clock. The delegation num-
bered nearly three score. They were pres
ent to give an unqualified Endorsement of
the memorials submitted to the convention
yesterday afternoon asking for the enfran-
chisement of the fair sex of this Territory.
And they gave that Endorsement to the
entire satisfaction OF the committee, which
listened patiently and interestedly to the
arguments in favor of its adoption.
Ten of the fifteen members have already
given the proposition their Endorsement.
The other five are of the opinion that the
constitution should not contain anything
concerning woman suffrage; that it is a
question that should be left entirely to the
State Legislature.

in which the writer described the cruiser

storm owing to the increased weight of her
armament Admiral Beranger said the
overweight of the cruisers deck guns was
rectitied two years ago by his orders when
he was Minister of Marine.

the crew belonged, there has been great
anxiety and excitement from the moment
the cruiser was reported missing. The

Some time since Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Cute
parted and Mrs. Cute commenced proceed
ings for divorce. In the meantime Cute
was eDjoined by order of the court from
entering upon the premises of his wife.
This week however, 1t seems Cute began to
to pine for his wfe's society again and not
being permitted to call upon her at home,
he wrote to her to meet him near the river
by the Higgins place. lie seemed to have
a presentiment that his wife would be more
certain to come to meet some one other than
himself though, and so signed another mans
name to the invitation. How warmly he
received his wife the neighbors can tell.
Mrs. Higgins hearing woman Streaming,
ran out to interfere. This was evidently
not right to Gute's mind and so he proceeded
to make an attack on some of the doors and
windows OF the house. In the meantime
his wife, who by the way says she recog-
nized her hubby's writing and knew she was
going to meet him, had fed for home. Cute
forgot the restraining order, followed her

"Byron or Bust" Again.

The residents Of Byron are having the
biggest kind of a fight among themselves
and large part of the town was at Corun-
ma yesterday and today, attending Justice
Peacock's court in consequence. The
trouble originated when show troupe was
playing at that place, and at which time
several prominent citizens were severely
roasted" from the stage. The worst of
this seems to be that some of the remarks at
least were too true to please the men men,
toned, and they Immediately offered a
reward for the discovery of the person who
gave this wicked information, which was
used so telllngly, to the troupe. As
the result of this move was only to get
confession from one of their own num-
Der, that he had done IL merely in fun. some
one else must suffer and these WORTHLESS
decided that the troupe must move on to
some other burg But as Comstock. the
proprietor had rented the hall to them for
the week, he could not be prevailed upon to
drive them away, and then when all
attempts at driving them away because they
had paid no license and by means of threats
failed, they proceeded to throw stones and
rotten eggs through the windows during the
entertainment, Comstock felt that this was
more than he was called upon to endure and
so swore out warrants against several of the
prominent men of the place, including the
mayor, charging them with malicious dis
truction of property. About thirty-eight

Rantist Corner Stone Laid.

The corner stone for what will be another
Of Owosso's fine churches was laid We'd
nesday at $50 p. m. The Sunday school
met at the armOry and with banners flying,
marched to the church foundation by the
way of Washington, Main and Ball streets.
They were led by the city band. A plat
foim had been erected about the wall where
the stone was to be placed, and after song
by the school, Duff's chorus sang an anthem,
beginning the ceremonies.
The trowel and mallet were presented to
the pastor by Chas. 4. Rigley, in behalf of
the building committee with appropriate re-
marks. The mallet was made Of black wal
nut and ash from the trimmings OF the old
church. The stone was lowered into posi-
tion during song by the Sunday school
and then was laid, accomp panied by very fit
ing remarks 10y the pastor, Rev. w. b.
Matteson, who spoke of the Specification of
the corner stone and its laying. After a
prayer by Rev. Sherwood Roosevelt and an
anthem by the chorus, congratulatory ad-
dress was made by II. s. Hadsall on behalf
of the mayor who was unable to be present.
The principal speaker of the evening, Rev.
w. l.. Farnum, was then introduced. He
spoke in his usual hopeful, encouraging way
which was all inspiration to those who lis
tened. MIR. Farnum was the pastor when
the former corner stone was laid, for what
was at that time the largest church ediice in
the city, and his knowledge of the labors
and good results OF that earlier undertaking
made his address all the more of interest.
The exercises were closed with benedicton.
The stone is gray trimmed field stone
with face of about 21x2s inches and the
date 1885" in raised figures in the center.
The following articles were enclosed in a
