ATTEMPT AT BURGLARY.
Charles Elwood Arrested With the
Tools on His Person.

While George Reynolds, of the
merchant police, was making his
midnight round on West Com
merce street last night, he heard a
peculiar noise that sounded as
coming from the rear of Critzer
Bros jewelry store.
He walked down Yturri street
and into the alley in the rear of
Dick Strayhorn's saloon. He saw
two men standing in the dark
under the awning of Fran
els, Smith & Co.'s office. He
went up to them and asked them
what they were doing there.
They said they were waiting for
some ladies. He asked them to go
outinto the light where he could
see them, but they refused. He
then pulled his gun, on them and
commanded. They said they were
tax payers and good citizens here,
and objected to being treated in
that manner. They asked Rey.
nolds to put back his gun, and said
they would come out If he would.
he put his gun back, and as he
did so, one OF the men broke in q
run and got away. The officer
grabbed the other. On the ground
at his feet he saw brace and
bit, and searching his man he
found skeleton key, a piece of
perforated tin and other similar
articles. He took the man to the
police station, where he was locked
up.
He gave his name as Charles
Elwood and said he came from
Houston, where he was a mattress
maker. He is about "a years old.
He said he does not know the other
man, only that he is known as
SHORTY"
On further Investigation it was
discovered that five holes had
been bored into the the rear door
OF the Hooper jewelry store, adjoin-
ing the Shepard & Sauer shoe
store.

The june Conferences.

The following letter explains itself:
Provo City, Utah, May 81, 1895.
Secretary Y. NJ. NJ. 1. Al regret very
much to inform you that we are unable
to fill our appointment at the June con-
ference. Our choirs, numbering 600, were
ready and willing to respond to the call,
provided the railroads would make US a
proper rate. which they have positively
refused to do. The last three conferences
held in Salt Lake by the NJ. 1. A. were
so well attended by the people of Utah
county that / was confident a rate would
be made We took twenty-four carloads
to the last NJ. ]. A. conference in Salt
Lake, and our numbers have greatly in
creased this year. Notwithstanding this
showing. the agents say, mo rate"
think the trouble rests with the r. G..
W., whose agents are so very short
sighted and unbusiness-ike in some of
their deals. Before the Union Pacific was
tied up by the pool, its agents were very
accommodating, and rates could be OBJ
tanned We do not trouble them for rates
for our county festivals. We saved $1,000
last year by travelling in buggies, but it
Is too far to go to Salt Lake, so we must
decline your invitation.
