dishes for inspection. If the maxim
holds true that a mans heart may be
reached through his stomach, the
young ladies OF the cooking class may
well lay claim to having created a
better impression for the college than
all the arguments which have been
advanced.

delegates and was greatly enjoyed.
After the inspection the delegates

gained something by this trip is very
evident. The whole subject of re-

the way down. Squires, of this
county, was perhaps the most pro-
nounced of all. He pledged himself
head over ears against removal.

Statements With Secretary RICH

In these days of unsettled insurance
conditions, disputed claims, and law
suits over repudiated fire losses, 1t Is

tons which have been doing business
in the territory for a quarter of a
century or more, making no noise.
paying all honest losses promptly, and
transacting their business generally
In a safe and conservative fashion.
The period is at hand when under
the law, all insurance companies op-
Grating in Utah are called on to file
sworn statements with the secretary
of the territory as to their financial
condition-'to show their hands as II
were, just as the banks are required
TO do, with the exception that the
banks are called on four times year
and the insurance companies only
once. Most of the companies repre-
sented by Heber ]. Grant & Co. make
their showing in today's Herald, the
official signature of the secretary or
the territory being attached to each. i
Leading off the list is the famous old
Anaconda of the Earth The Liver
pool and London and Globe. whose as
sets in this country alone amount to
eight and a half millions, and whose
British and American assets COM
bined are nearly sixty millions, or
twelve million pounds. This company
paid in fire losses last year IN Amer
lea alone SS,416474. more than any
other company in the world. Its Eu-
ropean figures are not yet at hand
The great Hartford Company, with
assets of $S,645. 1852 and surplus
over all liabilities of two and a hall
millions. is also in the list. This COM
pany paid 81, 7S9, 297 in fire losses in
the year which has just closed.
The German American, another OF
Grant & Co.'S prize companies, makes
a showing of S6,24O, 09SSY assets, and
nearly two millions surplus. This
company paid in fire losses during 1894
81 900, 2O7. The combined assets of all
compan MES represented by Heber j.
Grant & CO. are $40. 000, 600. The to-
tai paid in losses in the United States

The divorce suit of Sarah ]. Squires
against Harry Squires came on for
hearing before Chief Justice Merritt
yesterday forenoon. The grounds on
which the decree was sought were
cruelty, failure to provide and deser-
ton.
The plaintiff. a lady-like person of
about thirty years of age, testified
that the marriage took place in this
city on May z, 1894. and that her hus-
band had treated her cruelty, swore
at her and called her vile names. He
also failed to provide her with the
common necessaries of life and finally
on March u last deserted her.
Since he had gone away witness said
ne had written her a saucy letter.
Judge Anderson, Mrs. Squires' coun-
sci, remarked that "saucy'' hardly ex-
pressed 1T and the letter was handed
to Justice Merritt who, after reading
a few lines, frowned and remarked.
1t is a vile thing. You can take your
decree"

The West Mountain gold excitement
grows and the prospects brighten
hourly. 1t appears to be a genuine
thing in every way, and mighty big
thing.
Cass Hite, Will Lett, J. c.. Taylor
and old Buck Clark went back to the
grounds yesterday and employed
themselves mostly in completing the
locations they made in Coon's canyon
on the previous day. Mr.. Hite was
back at the Walker house last even
ing and is even more enthusiastic on
the merits of the new gold field than
ever.
New Developments.
Asked as to the developments of the
day, Mr.. Hite said: II landed at the
mouth of Coon's canyon at the break
of day on Friday morning. There
were then no stakes, no monuments,
and not living soul in sight.
Our company embraced five people.
We located one section of placers,
four claims of 100 acres each repre-
scented by eight names for each loca-
ton, the maximum allowed by the
law to one person in locating placer
claims being twenty acres.
1.-The result of Fridays prospecting
compelled us yesterday to confine our
selves strictly to perfecting these loca-
lions of the placers as well as four
lode claims and our water right in
Coon'S canyon. We worked so hard
and were so busy that we paid no
attention to the swarms of people that
covered the foothills of the Oquirrh
range from Coon's canyon south for
many miles.
'sOld Buck Clark and Jack Taylor
made an excursion south and south
west for about eight or ten miles in
the afternoon and reported the whole
country as being located, lodes as well
as placers, high up and low down.
In Dry Canyon.
"As far as they could learn new
strikes were made in different direc-
tions of good stuff. About the bt-At
were in Dry canyon. Owing to the
scarcity of water in the new district
locating is being done largely and
widely upon suspicion and all I can
say in a general way is that as far
as actually examined it is about as
good a thing in the shape of gold as L
have ever seen. There is no use to
report the wild stories one hears I'M
der circumstances of the kind. but
as far as known it is a magnificent
field for gold and looks as if it ex-
tended right along to Bingham"

Notices were posted announcing the

Paving Company Sues the civ

The Pacific Paving company of Utah
yesterday entered suit against Salt Lake
city to have judgment against defendant
on three causes of action. First for
So. with interest from October 10, 1893,
alleged to be due for interest upon an
account for work done under contract
for grading and paving OF date May IL,
1898; second, for interest on various sums
under contract, and third for S1E, $685. al
legged to have been retained as a guaran-
tee that the paving done was satisfac-
tory, and which the defendant promised
to pay on July %, 1894, and October %,
1924, in equal installments.
1t is alleged that various sums became
due from the city between July s, 1893,
and November IL, 1888, which were not
paid on the due dates, and the paving
company now seeks to recover interest to
date on the interest due when the sew
eral payments were made.
