HUMAN HAND FOUND.
ON EAST THIRD SOUTH STREET.
NEAR FRANKLIN AVENUE.
Probably the Hand of n Lady-Ap-
pears to Have Lain on the Ground
Three OF Four MoutIis--PoIice Are
Investigating the Mystery.

ON Wednesday afternoon little
Tommy Davis, who resides with his
parents at 16l East Third South, found
in the street opposite his house hui
man hand The hand was laying on
the surface of the ground and was
in an advanced state of decomposition.
The lad took it to his mother and she
kept it in the house until yesterday,
when the police were notified and the
member turned over TO them.
City Physician Daily examined 1t
and expressed it as his opinion that
the hand was probably that of lady,
the tendons and muscles indicated
that it had not done hard work and
its general appearance was such as to
warrant the conclusion that it had
probably lain in the earth for three
or four months. The nails and flesh
up to the first joints of the fingers are
gone and the thumb is also missing;
otherwise the member up TO the wrist
joint is almost perfect
The mystery is to whose body does
the hand belong, how did it come there
and was there foul play?
Mrs Davis and others, who reside in
the neighborhood of the place where
the hand was found, say there is al
times a foul odor around. from which
they are inclined to believe that the
rest of the body may be concealed not
far away.
There is evidently a mystery which
needs to be explained, and the sleuths
of the police force are working on the
case

AMONG THE WHEELMEN
GIDEoN's DECISION IN THE CASE
OF THATCHER.
He Decides That the Speedy Little
Racer Must Ride the Stearps
wheel or Nome, and Thatcher
Says it viii lie Done-FOwIcr Sus-
pended For Sixty Days.

1t will be remembered that some time
ago. Frank Thatcher had some sort of
disa greenent with Mr.. Coffin, in conse-
quence of which he retired from the
Stearns team and Joined the Rambler
team. With the merits of the contro-
versy, The Herald has nothing to say,
the facts not being before US. But MIR.
Coffin filed a protest with Chairman Gid
con, of the L. A. W, and there the mat
ter rested. Thatcher went into training
with the Rambler team, and at the last
big meet covered himself all over with
glory by smashing the worlds record for
third Of a mile and winning the valu-
able diamond offered by the track asso-
citation.
Since then, the admirers of cycling
have been looking forward with especial
interest 10 Thatcher's performance at the
big meet in July, and they will be much
disappointed to learn that the speedy
younS rider will not, in all probability,
be seen on the track then, and may not
ride again this season.
While training yesterday, Mr. Thatcher
Emise:
1 have received an answer in the re-
quest of the Western Hardware company
protest asking that you be compelled TO
ride Stearns. Mr.. Gideon has ruled that
as you admitted that you agreed to ride
Stearns for $50 a month and expenses,
you are obliged to live up TO your con-
tract You, however, have the right to
demand of Mr.. Coffin that he furnish
you racing suit and outfit free of charge
as this is part of the regular expenses.
In compliance with the above ruling,
you will ride Stearns wheel in future
races, unless released by Mr.. Coffin from
your contract, or be debarred from the
track on the grounds of unfair dealing
in cycle racing. Yours truly,
G. A. EMISE.
Representative Racing Board.
This simply means that Mr.. Thatcher
must ride the StearnS wheel or none, and
when seen by a HeraI d reporter last
evening, he stated enphatically that he
would retire from the track altogether
rather than comply with this command
He claims that he was justified in his
action because AIr. Coffin failed to keep
the agreement with him before he went
to the other team
1t seems, too, that the prizes won by
Thatcher are tied up under tho protest
and it remains to be seen how that mat
ter will be disposed of.
1t is said that Thatcher may vet be able
TO ride on the Fourth, by arranging with
would be such a consideration as might
be proper, but il is not likely that the
little racer will take any such step.
The news created something CT a. Sensa-
ton in racing circles last evening, and
general regret among all admirers of
this finest of sports.
For the sake of the Track association
which deserves unlimited success, and
for the good of wheeling generally, it is
to be hoped that this matter will be fixed
up, although there seems to be little
chance of it now.
Under the authority of Chairman Cid
con, Mr.. Emise yesterday suspended Fow-

Following the Fourth of July races.
the next big event in bicycling is the
Y. NJ. c. A. road race, over the Farm
ington course, July 10th. For this race
some Of the best riders in the city
are making very careful preparation.
and while Jensen and Fen:ol will be
the chief attraction, Weller and CoHni-
bear viii crowd either o. them for
first time prize. Nearly one hundred
riders have already signif!ed their in
tentiOn of entering and most of these
are aside from the regular road or
track racers. Inquiries concerning the
rules to govern the race and the names
of the handicappers have been received
from all parts of the territory. Indica-
tons point to is being one of the
most largely attended events of the
season, also that there will be an I'M
usually large number of participants.

A SHOCKING ACCIDENT.
Il. w. KIDDER. OF PARK CITY
HAS A FATAL FALL.
TumbIed Over an EmbanLment in
Front of His Home-His Neck Was
Broken and He Died Instantly.

r. w. Kidder. the well-known lum-
Der dealer, of Park City, met with a
shocking death at that camp yester-
day morning.
1t seems that the gentleman was
working on an embankment in front
of his home, when he lost his balance
and tumbled over. The fall was only
seven feet, but Mr.. Kidder alighted
on his head in such a way that his
neck was broken, causing instant
death. Mrs. H. P. Mason, of this city.
a sister of the deceased, was at once
notified and went out to the Park last
evening.
Mr.. Kidder was about so years of
age and leaves a widow and family.
One of his sons is attending an Iowa
college and is widely known as col
lege athlete.
The remains will be shipped to Mr..
Kidder's former home in Iowa this
morning.

Why not combine pleasant surround
ings with exciting sport. The song of
the industrious mosquito and the cho-
rus of the insinuating gnat may be
proper trimmings for a days enjoy
ment, but few people can convince
themselves of the doubtful fact. The
cool and refreshing breeze from the
meadows of new mown alfalfa waited
over the cold waters of the lake and
laughing in the foliage of the trees
gives promise of a delightful day. The
grass grown earth gives elasticity to
the feet and day spent where the
breath of nature cools the heated brow,
smoothes the wrinkles of care and fills
the lungs with ife-giving ozone and
not with mosquitoes and gnats, is to be
appreciated. Such is Calder'S Park,
with it's beautiful meadows and or
chards, with its lake fed by cold
springs and flowing wells, surrounded
by tall trees whose grateful shade neu-
tralizes the heat of the summers sun.
Here is the place TO spend day in
ideal pleasure. But one thing seems tic
be lacking in the above description of
days outing. Some exciting events to
send the blood rushing through the
veins that it may be bright and glow
ing for the drudgery of the days to
follow.
This one thing has not been over
looked. 1t has been provided by the
Salt Lake Gentleman's Driving club,
which will give three great races dur
ing the day.
These will be Free for All Trot
Mile, heats 3 in for a purse of $50. A

a purse of s120, and a trotting race in
