LOVERS FANCIES.

Bracelets provided with miniature
locks are frequently chosen as love
tokens. The girl wears the braceletand
the lover realms the key.
A sentimental man requested his
fiancee to have small heart tattooed
on her left wrist, heavy jeweled brace
let concealing 1t. He also had a similar
heart tattooed on his wrist together
With the pet name of his charmer.
One Englishwoman of title during
her engagement wore watch-chain
formed of her lovers hair. Tiny links
of goldwere introduced at intervals and
d massive emerald formed the pendant.
The watch was jeweled In cupid de-
signs.
Many continental men wear watch
or key chains fashioned from the
tresses Of their sweethearts. One man
had a lengthy hair chain which he
winds around his neck many times be-
fore it ends in his pocket. A wealthy
German and his fiancee both wear mass
i've rings of gold and strands of the
lady's hair entwined.
A London jeweler has been COM
missioned to make betrothal belt Of

Judge Cherry yesterday morning de-
case of ]. H Bowman against Salt
Lake City and county in which the
plaintiff sued to recover $5S,000 dam
ages alleged TO have been sustained by
him through the defendants caEcelling
their contract with him by which he
was to erect the joint city and county
building. when the work was only
partly done. The jury retired to con-
slider the case at IL o'clock and were
out until nearly o'clock in the after
noon, when a verdict for the plaintiff
was returned, assessing his damages
at 81, the city and county each to pay
half. The jury was polled and showed
that A. F. Sullivan. T. f. Griffith, Will
lam Buttle, George L. Cliff, John T.
AXton and Charles A. Woodbury. con-
Cured in the verdict, while John b.
Cummock and Joseph Thorup dis
scented. Mr.. Thorup stood out for a
verdict in favor of the defendants and
Mr.. Cummock wanted to find the is
sues for the plaintiff and assess his
damages at $500.
The jurors for long time after the
case was given to them stood three for
plaintiff and five for the defendant, and
finally six of their number agreed on
the verdict as returned, which, al
though disappointment to the plain
tiff, is sufficient to put the costs, which
will probably amount to several thou
sand dollars, on the defendants.
Judge Cherry remarked after court
had adjourned that he was surprised
at the verdict, but declined to say
what he expected the verdict to be.

Today several terms of the mem
bers of the national guard expire,
among them being those of several OF
the members oe battery A. and conf
panics A and of the First infantry.
While no particular celebration at
taches to the event, still the members
Of all three organizations are felicitat-
ng themselves over the fact that they
nave served a full term of enlistment
and are in good condition. The boys
have done we'll; have worked hard with
very little encouragement, and al
though matters have, in days not so
very remote. Looked 2 little rocky, -
still the companies have stood firm and
have continued to improve through ad-
verse circumstances.
A company is the oldest in the guard,
determining time from the date of its
organization prior to the regular en-
listment. 1t was organized in 1889 and
was placed on its feet by Henry Den
halter, who paid for the equipments
and assisted the boys in a material de-
gree. The company was named after
him and was under his watchful care
for long time.
Shortly afterwards 3 company was
organized, under command of Captain
II. III. II. Lund, who still retains his
position. IT was then known as the
Norden Military company, and al
though il was a private organization,
the men took an interest in the work
and continued drills and other military
exercises, although they received no
assistance from the state or general
government.

First Lieutenant.

Two members of the battery, First
Sergeant Wilson and his brother, are
IN the Cuban army, the latter being a
major under Gomez. He was wounded
in an action some IS months ago, bug
has recovered.
Up to date the guard has not received
the encoura cement it should have re-
ceived in order to make it effective, but
now that a Democratic legislature has
made it a decent appropriation, some
thing never had before, it is believed
that much good will be acco mplished.
There viii be several organizations
mustered ont and new ones recruited
Among those who will Law down their
arms and stop drilling will be the two
companies at Logan, which are to be
mustered out. The Cannonville COM
pany, the troop of cavalry at Spanish
Fork and the company at Moroni will
doubtless turn in. 1t is said that
Pennington will ask that it be dis
banded and will recruit again in the
shape of cavalry troop.
The company at Brigham City was
thinking of going out of the service.
but with the appropriation there will
be some encoura cement for remaining.
The boys there want to stay and be-
come one of the best in the state, but
up to date there has been but little en-
enlargement given them. Now, how
ever, they have manifested a DISPOSE
ton to remain and become more than
ever proficient.
Battery 3. at Ogden, has struggled
along for long time with but little en-
enlargement. 1t is composed of
good class of men and will become
splendid organization in a short time.
The men have been hampered by not
having ample drill accomm odationS,
but the COMMUNICATIVE chief has noti-
fed them that they will be accorded
better treatment in the future in the
way of rent for armory purposes and
otherwise and will have a smoother
road to travel With this done it will
be seen that Battery B can do some
thing towards making itself a first
class element in the National Guard
1t is an expression of individual
opinion merely, but the state should
do something for the National Guard
The appropriation made at the last ses-
sion of the legislature, while reduced
over $4,000 below what was asked for
was a step in the right direction and
will be but the forerunner of many
more. The troops should have an en-
campment each year for drill and in
struction. other states have them and
Utah should not lag.

One matter which will come for con-
sideration very soon is the question of
having the entire guard here for the
great parade on the oath of July, dur
ing the Pioneer Jubilee. The troops
can be transported from their home
stations very cheaply; the railroads
will make great concessions for them,
and good display will be the result.
When it is considered that the guard
itself will make the parade some five
blocks in length, the Importance Of this
question cannot be overestimated. With
ten companies of infantry, two bat
teries of artillery and three troops of
cavalry, the citizens may well be proud
of the National Guard. 1t will do much
to show the people what the state
troops are and will enable them to
form opinions by contrast with the reg
ular soldiers, who will undoubtedly be
in the parade, as to whether the money
expended in training them is good
investment or not.
Knowing that on this occasion the
eyes of the people of the state are go
ing to be upon them and that it will
be an event in their military lives the
men have manifested a renewed inter
est in the drills and are making every
effort to get in shape to make credit
able appearance on that event.

operations and have endeavored to
stand in with the officers in many
ways to elude arrest and even sus-
picicn. For instance it was plan to
go direct to the police and say that
they were aware that on some par
ticular night a theft would be COM

thus enabling the police to capture
the men in the act. Having disarmed
suspicion, they would then go. some
times on that very evening, and COM
NIT the deed themselves.
This theft of grain, for which they
are in custody, was committed in much
the same way. They told Officer Shan
non they were going to give him in
formation concerning it; said they had
heard the stuff was going to be stolen
some night the following week and as
soon as they could ascertain definitely
they would put him on" Then that
evening they took the stuff themselves.
The evidence which will be adduced
will show they were observed by three
persons in the act of loading the same

wagon of a man from Kamas, COM
ing to the city by way of Parley's can
yon, broke down just above the reser-
voir and he was compelled to leave his
wagon in the canyon. These men
came along shortly afterward and it is
claimed coolly loaded the wagon box,

their possession.
The owner of the wagon has been

Burt found in their possession two
sets of harness and a pair of double
trees, which have been identified, and
also two sets of harness, which are
awaiting Identification.
The officers of both the city and
county are facilitating themselves that
the two men are behind the bars, as
they belong to a gang which has given
a lot of trouble in times past. Both
have records which are by no means
good and it is believed that they will
both be convicted and given long
terms.

POLICEMEN WIN.
Had Probable Cause For Arresting
Mailer and Street.

Justice Margetts yesterday delivered
judgment in the two cases brought by
Gus Mailer against Police officer
Thomas Hilton and Jailor Kimball and
by Frank Sweet against Police Officer
Siegfus and Tailor Kimball, in which
each plaintiff sought to recover 1928
damages for alleged false impriSon-
ment. His honor found the issues in
favor of the defendant and in the writ
ten opinion stated that no malice on
the part of the officers had
been shown and that they
had reasonable and probable
cause for arresting the plaintiffs on
the charge of vagrancy. The main
point was the significance of the word
offense as deciding whether the officers
had authority to make the arrests
without warrants and his honor held
that '-offense' includes mesdemeanors
and that the action of the officers was
according to law in that regard.
