their answer that the plaintiff in De-
cember, 1898, converted the shares of
the capital stock 20 it's own use ana
that the value of them at that time
was $4,000.

John ". Taylor have judgment rem
dered in his favor for the difference
between the amount due on the note
and the value of the Utah mine stock.
Elizabeth T. Crismon, also made a
defendant in the action as surety, fled

and saws that at the time she sighed

edge, she was released as surety.

IMPROVEMENTS At GARFIELD.
Moving the Tracks South of the Pa
Vilion.

The Garfield Beach management has
decided to make some very important
changes and improvements at the
beach, the most important of which is
the moving of the railroad tracks from
where they now are to the south side
of the pavilion so that they will run
between the pavilion and the mount
ain. The space now occupied by the
tracks will be filled in and boarded over
from the east end of the dining room
up TO the electric light plant, a dis
lance of about 400 feet. This will be a
great Improvement and viii afford adj
ditional and desirable space for the Wis
itors besides reducing the risk Of ac-
oidents by the cars to a minimum. The
work is now in progress and will be
completed by the opening day, June Is.
Garfield is going to make a record
this summer. and already many appli-
cations fer excursion dates have been
received.

tan Endeavorers.

An immense contract was closed by
the Rio Grande Western yesterday,
whereby it transports from Grand
Junction to Salt Lake q special trains
from July to s. all conveying Chris
tan Endeavorers to the convention at
San Francisco. 1t is estimated that
the visitors will number between 1000

this army of tourists must be fed here

that the Importance TO Salt Lake lies
in the good opinion of the visitors as
to local ability to care for a crowd.
