This announcement of the S3 rate
for the summer applies not only to
CatarTh, but to all diseases. Its
especial appropriateness for dis
eases of a Catarrhal nature lies in
these facts: All those Diseases that
attack the nose, blocking its pas
sages; that attack the throat, Caus-
ing Irritation; that attack the ear
tubes, producing head noises and
Deafies~; that attack the Bronchial
Tubes and Lung Tubes, are aggra-
waited by the weather of fall, winter
and spring. They improve in the
warm weather months, because aJ
such times there is little change in
the temperature; the damp spells
that produce colds are absent, and
the high winds loaded with dust
that irritate the breathing tracts
are absent. In winter even the Doc
tors skill il often taxed to cure

Miscellaneous Notes.

John Wilson, under charge of burg
larizing the West Jordan tithing yard
and stealing therefrom so bushels of
wheat, in conjunction with a man
named Bateman. was arraigned before
Justice McMaSter yesterday and walv-
ing examination was held to the dis
trict court for trial. Wilson is sim
pie sort of fellow, and when arraigned
and asked if he was guilty or not
guilty, he said he would enter any kind
of plea the judge wanted him to enter.
1t is generally supposed that he was
led into crime without any particular
wicked intent on his part. Both he
and his co-defendant Bateman will be
arraigned before Judge Norrell in the
district court today.
A A Willis. who with his pal, Ed
Livingstone, was sent to the county jail
for 60 days for petit larceny, and
against whom there are charges pend
ing of grand larceny and burglary, has
yet another accusation to face, COM
plant having been lodged against him
yesterday in Justice Stewards court
charging him with stealing a horse and
buggy at Murray on January 1 last.
J. w. Burdell and Henry Davis,
charged with stealing a pair of horses
and a buggy, harness, ETC.. the prop
erty of A. SeeIy of Mill Creek. were
bound over to the district court by
Justice Margetts yesterday in bonds
of $500 each.
Carl johnson and Albert Peterson,
native of Sweden. now residents of
Murray, this county, were admitted to
citizenship by Judge Cherry.

SALT LAKE AMUSEMENT co.
Findings of the Court in the Suit
Brought by Piper.

Attorney George Sutherland, to
whom was referred the case of Jane
T. Pyper ct al. VS.. the Salt Lake
Amusement company ct al. yesterday
filed his report sustaining the demurrer
as to defendant J. P. McGrath and
oVerruling the demurrer as to all other
defendants. The report was approved
and plaintiffs electing to stand on the
complaint the action was dismissed as
to McGrath.
The referee in the findings says in
part: The complaint sufficiently shows
that there was a combination on the
part of the other defendants to get
control of the corporation and to de-
fraud the plaintiffs and the corpora
ton: that false accounts have been
kept by the defendants, excepting Nc
Grath, and they have now moneys in
their hands belonging to the corpora
ton for which they refuse TO account;
that at a time when the debts of the
corporation amounted to $3.50 they
falsely represented the debts as
amounting to $4,000 and induced the
stockholders to consent to a note and
mortgage for $4,000 being executed.
1t also sufficiently appears that the
corporation is under the control of the
defendants against whom relief is
sought so that an application to the
directors 10 DrlnR suit IN the name VI
the corporation would simply be an
application 10 the guilty parties to sue
themselves and under the authorities
no such application is required. 1t ap-
pears, however, that request was made
and refused.
Alexander Rogers is properly made a
party defendant for the reason that it
is alleged that the several frauds COM
mitted were under his direction; that
he and the other defendants have fall
sifed the books; have collected moneys
which they still have in their hands,
so that the corporation would be en-
titled to an accounting at his hands as
well as at the hands of the other de-
PENDANTS. 1t may be that some of the
facts attempted to. be alleged in the
complaint are not sufficiently stated to
allow proof of them upon the trial;
that some matters are alleged which
are surplusage and might be stricken
out upon motion, but clearly there is
enough outside of such facts to state
cause of action against all the de-
PENDANTS except McGrath. 1t is true
it is alleged that McGrath conspired
with the others to obtain control of
the corporation, but no facts are al
legged from which it appears that relief
is sought or could be obtained for the
benefit of the corporation against Nc
Grath in any particular.

Judge Hiles yesterday rendered mis-
decision in the matter of Clarence Cary
and James McGregor, receivers of the
Utah Central railroad, against Salt
Lake City for contempt. the city hav-
ing commenced tearing up the tracks
of Fort Douglas branch of the rail-
road
shows that the railroad property men
toned is part of the property taken
into the possession of the receivers by
the order of the court and by that or
der all persons were enjoined and re-
strained from meddling with il or dis
turbing the possession of the receivers
Whilst / am satisfied from the evil
dence that the respondents" says the
opinion, did not intend any contempt
CT the lawful orders of the courts, l
still cannot see how they can NEEDLE
with the property in the hands of the
receivers without violation of the in
functions of the court. 1t may be that
on a showing such as the evidence in
dicates, the city and its servants and
employees would be able to make such
a motion to the court. that the court
would order the track to be torn up
and removed as has in fact been done
in this case, but the law requires that
all things shall be done decently and
in order and no reason is perceived in
this case why an application should
not have been made to the court to
have the alleged obnoxious track re-
moved.
Il am of the opinion that the re-
spondents are in contempt and it is so
adjudged"

THREE CENT FARES.
Street Railway Co. Gives Up the
Fight for the Present-Will Go to
the Courts.

Indianapolis, April 16.-For the pres
ent, at least. the Citizens Street Rail
way company has decided to give up its
fight against the Scent fare law
A. Mason, president of the company,
says until ii is settled by the courts
cents will be accepted as the fare.
There were many riotous scenes on the
streets today. The street railway COM
pany had repeated yesterdays verbal
instructions to conductors to pay no
attention to the law fixing fares at 8
cents, and had posted in the barns a
glowing notice that scent fares should
be collected. An Informal indignation
meeting was held in the forenoon hours
ar Illinois and Ohio streets. The an
nouncement of President Mason. it is
thought, has been made just in time to
avert serious trouble.
The county grand jury was today
called together and instructed by Judge
McCrary to investigate the violations
of the law by the Citizens Street Rail-
way company and its employees.

shares of the par value of so each and
that in the articles of agreement and

the defendants be enjoined from SELL
ing the stock as delinquent.

PREFERENCE STANDS.
Colorado Fuel and Iron Co. VS.. West
ern Hardware Co.

ern Hardware Co.
Judge Hiles also delivered decision
in the case of the Colorado Fuel & Iron
company VS.. the Western Hardware
company The suit involved the valid
ity of a preference for $4,000 made in
favor Of the Provo Savings bank in
the assignment made by the Western
Hardware company when that com
pany failed.
The opinion says: 1t is supposed
that the circumstance that Smoot
was a stockholder in the bank is a fact
which, considered in itself amounts to
a fraud in fact, as well as in law, which
will invalidate and defeat the whole
assignment. l do not so regard it.
When l look further into the statement
| can see no reason to believe that
when the stockholders and after them
the directors of the company resolved
TO give the preference to the bank, that
none Of them, nor did Reed Smoot
himself, have in view any direct or con-
seuuential advantage tic Smoot by rea-
son of the fact that he was a stock
holder in the bank. 1t is quite plain
that nothing unfair was intended and
no one can say to what extent, if at all,
Smoot would be advantaged by the
transaction whereby the bank is pre-
ferred For aught which appears in
the pleadingS or statement of fact, his
stock in the bank is worth as much
without such preference as with it, and
that his prospective dividends therein
viii be Just as great without the ad-
vantage of the preference as with it,.
To say to the contrary, is to travel out
side of the record into mere srecula-
ton.
whenever It appears that assign
ments are made by corporations for the
benefit OF directors who are creditors
of the corporation, to the disadvantage
of other creditors. the courts have. not
been slow to pronounce Judgment
against them, but this is not, in my
opinion, such case, therefore judg-
ment must be for the defendant"

A CLIPPING.
For Those who Talk to the Publ

The following comments on advertis-
ing, made by the advertisement writer
for the Postum Cereal Co., Linn, of
Battle Greek, Mich, may interest some
who have been attracted by the rather
unique articles from his pen:
Make up the stories? why-yes. to
be sure they are dressed and trimmed
some. but they are all founded upon
fact.
That is. for instance. a mail car
rier, clerk, lawyer, or what not with
whom I may be talking. tells me his
experience with Postum
His story, possibly, is long enough
for two columns of solid matter if re-
ported verbatim.
Il take the main facts and boil down
the talk until we can afford to run it
as a pleasant bit of shop talk with our
friends and customers (the public and
not bankrupt US. I always stick to the
facts, as l consider that when a man
advertises he simply talks to his GUS
toners, and if he lies in his advertise
ments he will lie in the face to face
chats.
Tell the truth; it is more fascinating
than all the romances one can spin up.
When you write an advertisement
try and look upon yourself as convers-
ing with. or explaining to, some one
who wants to know about the article
you have to sell. They are interested.
and they want to know howsnear your
goods will fit their needs.
Tell them as plainly as possible,
without eXaggeration or subterfuge.
just what you have, and leave them to
Judge whether they want it or not
Don't tell them to buy this, or eat
that
THE public know about what they
want TO do, and the duty of the adj
writers is to explain facts in an easily
understood way.
First be sure you have an article of
true merit. and then tell the people
about it. Tell them the truth and you
add goodly percentage of dignity and
character to your business and to the
product you are furnishing"
