hobo JACK" A FIGHTER
TOOK THREE MEN TO TAKE HIM To
THE POLICE STATION.
G. e. Specie Charged with .'sIxip-
ping His Board Bill at Ogden
Minor Cases Receiving the Atten-
ton of the Police.

1t was busy day about police head
quarters yesterday, an unusually large
number of DRINKS. vags and beggars be-
ing gathered in. OF the latter class
Hobo jack was one, and if he ever
gets out again, he says, he will kill
not only Detective Sheets. but half of
the police department. Hobo Jack met
gentleman on Main street whom he
singled out, and began to pour out
long tale of woe. Work? Yes, certainly
he was willing to work, but must have
a little money first.
"All right said this gentleman, come
with me-"
Hobo Jack followed and the two started
towards the station. When they got
nearly there the vag grew suspicious,
and refused to go any further. Mr..
Brown, for such was the gentleman $
name, told him he had to and then the
fun started. Hobo Jack let go on
Browns jaw. The latter countered knock
ing his antagonist against the fence.
They were going it at a lively rate when
Sheets came along to stop the fight. Be
fore he knew what had happened to him
ne felt as though he had come in con-
tact with a mules heel. Then Detective
Janney arrived on the battle ground, and
with the reinforcement Hobo Jack was
dragged into the presence of Desk Ser
geant Adams, who obligingly entered his
name on the register. Hobo Jack says
it will not be safe for Sheets to cross his
tracks again when he gets out, and as
for Brown-why he had better get out Of
sight entirely.

THE GRADUATES.
Those Who Pass From the Grades to
the High School,


the High School.
About $50 girls and boys received
their diplomas certifying that they had
passed through graded schools yester-
day. The large class room of the high
school was crowded with the gradu
ates, their parents and friends. Stand
ing room was very scarce, and some of
the spectators stood at the doors and
windows to get a glimpse of the pro-
ceedings.
No formal programme was prepared.
Addresses of welcome were made by
Principal Malone OF the high school,
and representatives of each of the
freshman, sophon ore, junior and senior
classes, which were responded to by
representative from each school. Some
Of the members of the board of edu-
cation also made a few remarks and
the diplomas were distributed by the
different principals.
While all this was going on inside,
some of the old high school pupils
were having their fun outside. About
a dozen of them found a good sized
box draped in black and shaped like
a coffin. On this they marked the fig
ures 1900 with white chalk They put
one of their number in this and car

the building with barred heads and all

They did this till the exercises were
almost over. Then they decorated the
box a little more and waited for the
first graduate who came out of the
building. 1t happened that all of the
girls came out first, and stayed out in
front till the boys came. The hazerS

I have nothing but words of COM
mendation for the great and import

can think, of no calling more noble or
more deserving of encoura cement than
that of caring for the afflicted of Gods
children. There are times when men
and women die for the lack of intelli-
gent, we'll directed attention in the sick
room. In any case the convalescence
of the sick is always FASTENED wher-
ever the attentions of a skilled nurse
are employed. There are many cases
where a patient requires careful nurs-
ing much more than he does the pre-
scribed connections of a physician, and
where both are employed. it will often
