Mr.. Phlager amused the reporters and
a crowd of police officers at the station
about midnight telling how it was done
He said he had just escorted a lady friend
home and was returning to his lodgings
when at the corner of Fourth South and
Main street he was accosted by the

Some conversation followed. and in the
midst of it, the dusky maiden suddenly
broke away and ran up the street. In

missing. Pniager started after the wo-

South and Main. He demanded the
pocketbook, which she held in her hand,
and argued for time about the money,
she denying having any of his money
although she willingly returned the
pocketbook. EIe looked inside and found
that a $40 gold piece was missing. All
sorts of pleadings were in vain. he said.
She refused stubbornly to give him the

and held her pending the arrival of the

Phlager says If he can get the money
back he will not prosecute her. In the
meantime he was notified to be on hand
tomorrow when the case will come UP

Walter Worthen appeared before
Judge Richie yesterday afternoon on
order to show cause why he should
not be punished for contempt of court
in failing to pay his divorced wife
alimony for the support Of herself and
children. The divorce was granted in
1894 on the ground of failure to sup
port. and drunkenness, and the defen-
dent was ordered to pay SIS a month
alimony. He paid the alimony until
October last. and then, according to
Mrs. Worthen's testimony, he ceased
paying and refused to contribute even
a dollar 10 her support or that of his
seven children. Mrs. Worthen testi
fed that she worked hard and sup
ported the children as best she could,
but was now sick and unable to work,
ard if their father did not do some
thing for them they would have to go
to the poor house
The defendant, an able-bodied young
man. testified that he was a mason by
trade, but had been unable to get
work. He owed his mother 800 for
board and had not the wheTewitnai
TO pay or support his children.
On cross-examination it appeared
that Worthen spent considerable
money in entertaining other ladies. He
was an expert dancer and ATTENDED the
dancing academies two or three nights
a week and danced away the hours,
while his seven little children went
hungry and barefooted. He also made
several pleasure trips into the coun-
try for a week at a time and joined
with others in entertaining and giving
parties to his friends. He hadn't look
ed for work except at his trade, and
wasn't aware that he could have had
constant employment in Bingham can
yon at 81 a day.
Mr. II. A Smith, the attorney for
Mrs Worthen, offered in court to pro-
vide the defendant with work at 81 d
lay for q year if he would accept it
md ray a, portion of it for alimony.
Northen, however, declined the offer
ana said he was now in employment.
He had bought a wedding ring for
one lady, Miss Fanny Knowles, and
also bought a, marriage license on Feb
ruary 10, 1896. but whether he got
married again or not did not appear,
although 1t did appear he had given
another lady $50. He had also on one
occasion paid SIS fine for disturbing
the peace.
Judge Kitcfie held that the defen-
danr was in contempt, and ordered
that he pay his wife $25 on July l and
S25 on the 1st OF each month there
after until further order Of the court,
and in case he failed, to make the
payments he is to go to jail.
H. A. Smith was the attorney for the
plaintiff and R. D. Earl for the defen-
dsant

Judgment Rendered.

Judge Ritchie yesterday rendered his
decision III the case of the Great Salt
Lake and Hot Springs Railway COM
pany vs.. ]. S. Cameron and the Salt
Lake Rapid Transit company. His
honor ordered that the poles be set
back 10 the center line of the street
by the Rapid Transit company.
The suit was the result of a dispute
as to the rights of the parties to lay
their railroad tracks on Third West
street. Both have franchises to por-
tons of that street, and each alleged
that the other has encroached on their
respective rights, erected poles, laid
rails, etc, or or in too close proxim-
ity to the portion of the street occupied
by the other.

dience who were deeply interested in
the subject. 1.-THE Way to Teach
French 10 Americans" The professor
handled his subject very skilfully. quot
ing from many of the best preceptors
in this country, who agre that the only
way to learn the language successfully
is from a native of France. Others
who assume to teach it have, as a gen.
eral rule, a superficial knowledge of
the grammar, particularly of the verbs,
which are the most important parts in
all languages, and again the true ac-
cent can be obtained only from a son
of the soil.
