Grafton of the advent of the band of
Mormon pioneers led by Brigham
Young, into the valley of the Great
Salt Lake on July ~, IS47. The
settlement made by them was the
dawn of western civilization. From
it grew the great empire which now
extends from the Mississippi river
to the Pacific Ocean. The haunts
of the then bloodthirsty Indians are
now occupied by thriving cities;
their hunting grounds are dotted by
fertile farms, and the mountain fast
nesses which were their strongholds
are yielding annually precious met

computed in the million-dollars col

THE GARDEN.

The margin between the posi-
bilities and the actualities of the
average farm garden is thing of
goodly dimensions. It is, natur-
ally enough, a difficult thing for
the farmer to realize to what ex-
tent of practical usefulness he may
put single acre of ground pro-
vided he is willing and careful to
bestow upon it the right kind of
attention. This is so because Of
the fact that in his farm work he
looks more to general results. But
when he comes down to work on a
smaller scale he finds things quite
different. 1t is only recently that
a committee took upon itself to in
vestigate somewhat as to what was
actually being done on some Of the
small truck farms near one of our
large cities, and they reported that
one farm of forty acres yielded an
nually $4,000 worth of fruits and
vegetables; another of six acres
yielded $4,000; another Of ninety
acres yielded $4,000, and another
of twenty acres returned $4,000.
These figures represent good re-
ceipts, but even after making
reductions for fertilizers and other
necessary expenditures, the net
returns, although not stated, were
no doubt handsome Apart, how
ever, from the profits from exclu-
sive truck farming, the garden acre
on the farm can be made an i'm
portant item in the domestic econ
omy of the home, if we take into
consideration all the expense at
taching to the purchase of garden
produce necessary to the health,

that nucleus has grown astate OF
800, 900 people, and because of the
1ardihood and bravery shown by the
pioneers of Utah the magnificent
empire known as the inter mountain
country owes its existence. 1t IS
Therefore fitting that the central idea
Of tha celebration should be to honor
the deeds of the pioneers by hon.
oring those who are left and their
descendants.
The celebration will be conducted
by a State commission and portion
of the expense has been provided for
by legislative enactments. 1t is the
design Of the commission, of which
Hon. Spencer Clawson is chairman,
to expend not less than $Ioo, 900:
The celebration, while it will be
in honor of the pioneers, will also
commemorate the obtaining of State
hood and the Cementing of ties of
friendship and confidence among
people once unhappi!y politically
divided. 1t will also be an an
nOuncement to the world that Utah
is progressive; that within her Dor
Gers tnere is room for thousands of
settlers and that her people are, with
hands outstretched, ready to well
come all who may be disposed to
seek wealth, health and happiness
among them. Magnificent street
parades will take place by day and
by night; excursions and entertain
ments will afford constant source
of pleasure; the grandest pyrotech-
nical exhibition the West has known
will edify all; gorgeous floats, de-
piCting the resources of the State,
the hardships endured by the pio-
neers and the progress of fifty years
will be features; concerts in which
from 600 to 1000 people will assist
vocalists of world, wide regulations
will be given, and the grand ball at
Saltair, the finest bathing resort in
America, will be a revelation to those
of the visitors who come with the
idea in their heads that the people
of the West are barbarians.
At this time it is not possible to
more than outline the features of
the programme. Suffice to say that
the preliminary arrangements for the
event are in the hands of experienced
and competent people and that the
promises made that it will be the
greatest celebration ever held in the
West will be fulfilled to the smallest
detail,

with steady grind the investigation
into the mental capacity, bodily infirm-
ity and testamentary intention OF the
Sonora Conception Alaniz is being In
quireA into in department two.
No very remarkable facts were df-
vulged yesterday, albeit number OF
witnesses testified in behalf Of the con-
testants. ]. A. Romero, Eugene r.
Plummer, Margaret Eberle, Jose San
chez and Frank Elasalda, all gave evil
dence that presented many points of
similarity. The old lady was ailing and
suffered from heart disease; she took
a good deal of liquor, one witness GEL
asalda) testifying that he himself had
purchased brandy for her; she spoke af-
fectionately of the Lelongs and made
reference to apportioning her property
among her numerous nephews and
nieces.
In connection with these will contest
trials in which Spanish families have
been concerned. there is curious fact
to be noted. Certain of the witnesses
seem to be regular standbys and bob up
serenely on each and every occasion. Ii
is generally understood that most of the
old Spanish families are related by an
intricate network of either natural or
ican it seems odd that even in such case
any one member could become cognizant
of the deviltry being practiced in all the
affiliated branches of his own partic-
ular household. 1t seems so, however.
and a perusal of the above names will
reveal the fact that some of them figured
in the Coronel case short time ago, and
on several previous occasions testified in
suits of more or less sensational char
acter.

THE REUBENs FRAUDS
After Years of Delay the Old Lady May
Get Return of Her Money.

Yet once again the familiar names of
/ Rubens VS.. Mead loomed up in Judge
York's court yesterday.
For years these names have popped
up at intervals and on each occasion the
| case has been simply the old question in
new guise Mrs Sarah v. Reubens was
badly done up by A. Mead and w. H.
Shinn, who polmed upon the old lady
lot of wild lands and took her good
money on mortgage. Mead died and
which were calculated to bring the
dispute to an end. Mrs. Mary A. Mead
then, through w. H. Shinn, her attorney.
stipulated that if, upon the first case 60
| ing to trial and judgment being awarded
to Mrs. Rubens, the second suit should
be withdrawn, she would pay the judg-
ment. Mrs. Rubens did obtain judg-
ment on the first suit being tried, but
Mrs. Mead refused to pay, making, as
an excuse for going behind the stipula-
ton, the plea that the case was one that
could not be finally determined by the
superior court.
The second suit was not dismissed.
and came up for trial yesterday in de-
partment three. 1t was a personal suit
against Mrs. Mead to recover "a, ,552. %,
being the amount Of the judgment rem :
dered in the previous suit, and 1udg-
ment for the amount claimed was
awarded by Judge York without listen
ing to argument
The Mead contingen. have from the
very first displayed the most pertina-
cfous doggedness in procrastinating.
Evading and lodging, and every quirk
and bubble of the law has been called
into play to avoid return Of any of the
money of which Mrs. Rubens was de-
frauded. Now there is only one alterna-
tive open to Mrs. Mead, and that is to ap-
peal her case to the supreme court or
pay up.

THE SPENCER CASE.
The discriminating Letters Admitted In
Evidence.

The batch of letters that had such a
disquieting influence upon the defen-
dant's counsel when first mentioned by
counsel for the plaintiff, were yesterday
permitted by Judge Van Dyke to be in
troduced in evidence, but not
without opposition Of most de-
termined kind. Plaintiff had to prove
that the originals, appended to Mrs.
Newton's deposition taken prior to the
divorce suit of Newton vs.. Newton, had
mysteriously disappeared with the de-
position itself. This was done 1t was
shown that after the divorce trial the
deposition, with the accompanying let
ters had been returned to the attorneys
for Newton inasmuch as they had the
deposition taken and the letters, albeit
produced by Mrs Newton, were really
the property of Mrs. Spencer to whom
they had been sent by Mr. Newton

the witness.

cedure regarding corporations, and want
you to tell if it is substantially correct"
Counsel read long extract and then
asked: rs that substantially correct?"
1t was a rather confusing query, for
While the statute is dry as bone and
the provisions somewhat difficult to
memorize, the letters in question were
more racy than the Frenchiest of yell

Mr.. Lamme was staggered. To read
a long, dry-as-dust extract once was
enough, twice altogether too much.

and Attorney Pillsbury ca me off the wit
ness stand without having committed
himself.
The letters having been admit ed they
were handed to Judge Van Dyke for his
perusal later. they being too naughty to
