OF Provo, Meets Death at the Hands OF
Park City Miner-Gambler.
After tbucking the tiger" all night
Wednesday night at Park City, and
losing in the neighborhood OF S400, 90.
Pete Clark a big miner went out Of the
club room at about s o'clock yesterday
morning and purchased a revolver and
had il loaded, He returned in about
half an hour and found the dealer.
Harry Nugent, against whom he had
lost his money, still manipulating the
paste boards. ''Give me $4,000" said
Clark, at the same time leveling hie
gun at Nugent well, give me time to
count 1t out" replied Nueent coolly.
AT that he drew out the money drawer
and Clark saw 8 gun living back of the
money. He gave the faro dealer no
opportunity to pick 1t up, but fred, the
ball going right through NuSent's body
entering at the pit of the stomach.
Nugent grabbed his gun and Clark shot
again, hitting Nugent in the left
shoulder. Nugent by this time had
his gun N hand and shGt at Clark.
hitting him in the wrist. Several o; her
shots we're interchanged and Nugent
ran the miner out of the house and
across the street before he fell.
Clark was arrested. NugeLt died
last night at Ills clock.
CLARK, it is said, at one time ran a
faro game himself, and has been con-
slant player. 1t is also said he won
5000 90 at roulette on Saturday night

Women Were All Queens.


Why is it, / wonder, that we come
into the world SO i'll equipped for its ex-
ploration? 1t seems to me. as / look back
upon my youth, that, in certain way,
nv senses were fresher and keener then
than they are now. And yet they vera
continually-particularly in the matter
of girls-playing the most unwarrant'
able pranks on me- Some alien fluid, OF
an intense and fiery kind, got mixed
with them and made them subject to all
sorts of unaccountable alterations.
1t is notorious fact that an electric
current will make the most exoellent
compass behave in an irresponsible FASH
ion. And yet, though the disturbing
fluid which made my compass worthless
was nearly always there, it has guided
me somehow With tolerable safety a
long distance across the trackless main.
And l am not by any means sure that ]
would exchange it for truer instru-
ment, subject to fewer alterations. For
I take this very sensitiveness to electric
influences to be proof of its exceeding
fineness and excellence. Life would be
a horrible dreary affair if these magnetic
currents which make the needle tremble
and swerve were banished or nonexist
ent. The dull, dead, stupid sanity
which has no sympathy with folly and
no CLEAN of potential madness is no
doubt a stanch and reliable rudder, but
cannot forbear questioning whether to
the soul thus equipped the voyage is
worth making.
Ulysses of old, middle aged though
he was, had to stuff his ears with wax
lest he steer his ship into the jaws of
perdition, when the sirens sang SO deli
ciously, and he did not exactly cover
himself with glory during his visits to
Gree and Calypso. But what very red
blood he had, and how humanely his
heart beat in every one Of his manifold
adventuresl He never, like his ship.
mates, became swain, and how noble
and manly was his bearing in the pres
ence of the lovely Nausioaal
There is something almost touching
to me in seeing the same sentiment
which stirs my own bosom recorded
thousands of years ago. And, truth to
tell, the man whose pulse is subject to
no irregularities and whose judgment
registers no alterations in the presence
of beautiful woman is, in my opinion,
'fit for treasons, etratagems and spoils. F"

Agreed with His Cross Examiner.

Mr.. James Hyde, once lawyer in G
small town on Long Island, tells good
story about himself He says:
sit was when 1 used to practice law
in little town near the center of the
state. A farmer had one of his neighbort
arrested for stealing ducks. and was
employed by the accused to endeavor to
convince the court that such was not the
case. The plaintiff was positive that his
neighbor was guilty because he had seen
the ducks in the defendants yard.
"'How do you know they are your
ducks?' 1 asked.
"'Oh, should know my own ducks
anywhere' replied the farmer, and lie
gave description of their various pe>
ouliarities whereby he could readily dis.
tinguish them from others.
Why, said 1, those ducks can't be
of such rare breed. Ihave seen some just
lils them in my own yard.
"'That's not at all unlikely, replied
the farmer, for they are not the only
ducks have had stolen lately. In
