Park City, May 6.-Littie Ernest Har-
rington. the 4-year-old son of ex-Sheriff
]. M. Harrington, was drowned this
morning in Empire canyon creek
His body was discovered about 5
O'Clock by Mrs. Martin Powers, lodged
in the creek, which flows through her
yard. near the head of Main street.
With the assistance of Frank Carpen-
ter. the body was quickly removed and
taken into the house. Medical aid was
summoned, Drs Wilson and Gregor re-
spending, but life was extinct when the
body was removed from the creek. The
body was badly bruised through coming
in contact with rocks as the current
carried il along, the skull being frac-
tured.
The boy while playing near his
home in Empire canyon, several hun
dred yards from the point of discovery,
fell into the creek. The volume of wa
ter is unusually large just now and the
current so strong that it Immediately
swept the child away.
No one witnessed the accident. The
mother tainted away when told of her
bereavement. The father was working
at Ontario No. when the accident oc-
Cured
The sympathy of the entire commun-
ity is with the grief-stricken parents.

bright little fellow.

WITNESSES AND JURORS.
AN OPINION RELATING TO
THEIR MILEAGE CHARGES.
Attorney-General Bishop CONSTITUTES
the Law in Answer to a Request
From Morgan County.

Acknowledgement Bishop yesterday is
sued an opinion TO County Attorney Will
/ Jams of Morgan relative to mileage
charges for witnesses and jurors in at
tending court. The encouragement
says:
u have your favor of the 18th uItino,
in which you ask to be advised whether
the law prior to statehood which pro-
vided that witnesses and jurors should
receive 50 per day for each days attend
ance at court and 10 cents a mile one way
when the witness or juror could travel
by rail. and 20 cents one way when the
witness or juror could not travel by rail,
was repealed by the laws of 1896.
Section las, page 566 of the laws pro-
vides:
Jurors and witnesses fees shall be as
follows: For attending as a juror in the
district court for each days attendance
per day 81; for attendance in the Justices
court for each juror swcrn to try "a
cause, per day 81; for each mile actually
Travelled in attending court as a juror, in
going only, per mile 20 cents. Witness
lees for each days actual attendance
when legally required to attend upon the
district court. $780, for each days actual
attendance upon the Justices court when
legally required to attend, 81. For each
mile actually travelled in going only 90
cents
the session laws of that year. provides
that witnesses for the territory in
criminal cases and jurors in the district
court shall be paid the sum of 81 per day
fer each days attendance at court and
10 cents per mile one way when the wit
ness or juror can travel by rail. and 20
cents per mile one way, when the wit
ness or juror cannot travel by rail for
the distance necessarily Travelled from
his place of residence to the place of hold
ing court. These provisions are incon-
s;ste:t with each other so that it be-
comes necessary to look to the act of
1896. to see whether there is any repeal
ing clause. and we find section 169 of the
same act. being chapter 131 of the laws of
1856. known as the county government
bill, the following:
'All acts and parts of acts inconsistent
with this act are hereby repealed" This
would undoubtedly have the effect to re-
peal all laws upon the same subject
which were inconsistent Herewith, the
effect OF which would be TO entitle wit
nesses and jurors in the district court TO
% cents per mile going only, and this
without reference to whether they travel
upon the railroad or otherwise. In other
words there is no distinction in the law
at the present time. so far as fees are
concerned. in the method of travel To The
Mace of holding court, by witnesses or
jurors.

Hoken olsen.a Troubles.

The trial of Hoken Olsen for selling
liquor in Huntsville without license
was ND yesterday before Justice Per-
rim and a jury of four. Olsen is per-
sistent if nothing else. Time and again
ne has been up on this same charge,
and his place in Huntsville mas the
words saloon" in large letters over it.
Some appeals are pending on cases
which have heretofore gone against
him. His present trouble seems to be
the result of a trap. Two Ogden young
men named Cook and Smith went I'D
and purchased liquor. Smith admitted
on the stand that he was here under
an assumed name, but said ii was for
perfectly legitimate reasol-he be-
ing newspaper correspondent.
The case was postponed until Satur-
day at 10 a. m. Olsen's attorney had
something of a stickler in the way Of
a law point which he raised, urging
that the county has never fixed the
amount TO be charged for liquor
licenses, and he maintains that the
county has TO pass an ordinance fix
ing the amount. If he loses the case
before the justice he will raise that
point on appeal.
