COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
CANNOT SERVE AS JUSTICES OF
THE PEACE.
An Opinion Given out By Attorney
General Bishop Yesterday.

Acknowledgement Bishop says a
county commissioner cannot hold two
offices, or at least cannot serve the
county as commissioner and the pre-
cinct in the capacity of justice of the
peace at the same time. His opinion to
this effect was rendered yesterday. and
is as follows:
James Ollerton, Esq. County Attorney
of Iron County, Parowan, Utah:
Dear Sir-I have before me your ia
vor of Jan. u, in which you submit the
following, and ask to be advised
thereon:
lone of our county commissioners is
also precinct justice, of the peace. Can
he hold and exercise the functions of
both Offices"
The general rule of law is, that where
the duties of the two offices are incom-
patible, they cannot both be held by
the same person.
Without entering into details, I am
of opinion that the duties of the offices
of county commissioner and justice of
the peace are Incompatible to such an
extent that it would be improper for
one person to attempt to fill both
offices. I have the honor to be,
Very respectfully yours,
A. G. BISHOP,
ATTORNEY General

Some time ago Mrs. Sarah A Daft
Whalon commenced divorce proceed
ings from her husband, John H
WhaIon. based substantially on the
somewhat novel ground that Mr.
Whalon had cajoled her into the mar
rage against her will and inclinations.
1t was also set up that the defendant
was idle and shiftless and contributed
nothing to the maintenance of his
wife. and that she out of her ample
means had to support him, while he
was not even capable of managing
her affairs and looking after her prop
erty interests and she had TO revoke
his authority to act for her. Where
upon he became mOrose and cruel ana
insisted, against her viii, IN occupying
q, room in the Daft block. She wanted
a decree of divorce and an order Oh the
court restraining him from coming TO
her residence on West Third South
street and also preventing him from
interfering with her property or oc-
cupying the room in the Daft building.
DEFENDANT ANSWERS.
The defendant yesterday by his at
torney S. p. Armstrong, filed his
answer and cross-complaint in the dis
trict court in which he denies all the
material allegations of the complaint
and by way of cross-cOmplaint alleges
that the plaintiff was not tricked into
the marriage; that she is a person of
mature years and discretion, being
over 90, and no novice in the marriage
business, this being her third venture
of the kind. 1t is further alleged that
Mrs Whalon has not deported herself
as a wife should since the marriage;
trat the defendant transferred to her
valuable mining properties and gave
his time and attention to the manage
ment of her business affairs with her
consent for Is months after the mar
riage which took place on July %, 1873,
and that his services were reasonably
worth $1,50O, no part of which has been
paid.
Defendant also alleges that the
plaintiff is physically incapacitated
from entering into the marriage state
and makes some serious charges
against her.
In June, 1896, for good and sufficient
reasons, the defendant alleges he can
celled an insurance policy on his life
and ever since then Mrs. Whalon has
abused him, used towards him vulgar
and prCfane language, sulking and
doing everything possible to annoy
him.
He prays for a decree of divorce, that
his mining stock be transferred back
to him or that he receive its value in
cash and that he have judgment for
$1,000 for his services as business
manager for his wife.

Washington, Jan. 25.-EX-Queen Lii
iuokalani paid a personal visit TO
President Cleveland todayr
1t was entirely informal, and was so
designated in the note sent by the de-
posed monarch to the president, re-
questing the privilege of calling, and
the answer of the letter in granting it.
Helelule, agent and secretary of Lii
iuokalani, and julius N. Palmer OF
Boston, the American friend of the
queen, who accompanied her to Wash
in@ton. went to the White House this
morning with an autograph from the
ex-uueen addressed to the president
She asked merely that he receive her
informally in a personal capacity, pas
ing the request on the ground that IL
was a custom in her country for the
head of the government to receive for
eign visitors of distinction. Shortly
after noon the president sent note TO
Mr.. Helelule, appointing 3 O'Clock as
the house at which he would be pleased
to have her call.
At the appointed time Liliuokalanl,
Miss Kia Nahaolelana, her companion
in waiting: Mr.. Helelule and Ehr- Pal
mer drove UP to the White House in a
to the blue room. The ex-queen was
tastefulIy dressed. She walked with
dignity across the lobby of the private
corridor The meeting between the
president and the former queen was
extremely cordial. Mr.. Cleveland, en-
tering the room, advanced with out
stretched hand, and as he grasped that
of Liliuokalani, he exclaimed. 4 Am
very glad you thought of calling on
me-" The president invited the eX-
queen and her companions to be seated
and then entered into a pleasant con-
versation with the former. They talked
about the death of Minister Willis and
the ex-Gueen spoke of him in words
of praise. Yes, another word, Mr.
Cleveland, he always filled whatever
official position he occupied with credit
to himself and his country"
There was nothing said about restor-
alton, but Liliuokalani took occasion
to thank the president for his with
draWsal of the treaty of annexation
sent to the senate by President Harri-
son four years ago When Li1iuokalan
inquired about Mrs. Clevelands health
the president remarked that she had
been preparing to go out as he came
down stairs, but he would ascertain
whether she was in or not. he called
a messenger. who informed him that
Mrs Cleveland had gone out walking
a few minutes before. These things
formed the bulk of the conversation,
which was informal and personal from
the beginning to end

OPIUM DEN RAIDED.
CHIEF PAUL'S MEN MAKE A
FINE CAPTURE.
Lee Yay, One of the Few Chinese
Who Have Withstood the Cru
SADIE Waged by the Authorities
During the Past Five Years, in
Jail.

Captain Eslinger and officer Dick
Shannon made a raid upon an opium
den last night, with the result that
three young lads, all of good families
in this city, were caught in the act of
hitting the pipe. The keeper of the
joint was a Chinaman and he now oc-
cupies a cell in the city bastile.
The CAPTURE was im0ortant, because
the miserable heather who deals out
the drug will get his just deserts if the
boys can be prevailed upon to appear
against him. The capture also proves
what every one knew, although the
police have been tireless in their eff
forts to wipe them out entirely, that
few opium dens are being operated still,
although the evil has nearly been
abated, and that young men and boys
are being enticed to imbibe of the dead
~ poison that will ultimately land
them in a premature grave.
The joint raided last night is located
in one of the rooms of a brick building
in the upper end of Plum alley. 1t is
kept by a Chinaman who writes his
name Lee Yoy Yoy has an eye to
business and has clevely arranged
avenues of escape in case the place
should be visited by the blue coats.
But his ingenuity proved him of little
avail last night, for the interruption
was so sudden there was no chance for
an escape.
Captain Eslinger has been aware of
the existence Of this den for some
time, but the desired opportunity did
not come until last night, when he
took with him officer Shannon to make
a raid. They watched in the alley for
some moments and saw the three boys
enter, as well as several other fends
come out of the building. AT the OPP
perfume time the two minions of the
law made a hasty entrance, with the
result as above stated.
The ages of the boys captured range
from 16 to 20 years. At the police sta7
ton they gave fictitious names. Two
Of the boys at least are known to the
police. and both are of good families.
The third was neatly dressed and i'm
pressed one as having been well bred.
When questioned they refused to give
their right names on account of their
connections. They admitted having
visited the joint on several occasions
and paying the proprietor % cents
apiece for dope balls The boys were
allowed to go under promise of APP
pearing before Judge Wenger today to
testify against Lee YOy.

A SLIGHT MISTAKE.
The Eyes Sometimes Deceive.


There are a number of experiences
in real life from which interesting facts
can be gathered. The treasurer of a
large manufacturing concern, whose
name need not be given for the pur-
pose of this article, has been COM
PEELED to give up drinking coffee on
account of its effect upon his stomach
and nervous system
1t was suggested that he try the
health coffee Postum Cereal." as that
is made of the healthful grains and
takes the place of coffee very nicely.
He rather felt that it was a foolish
step, to undertake to use any article
with the expectation that it would
take the place of coffee, which his
family used of the best grade of Mocha
and Java mixed. However, a package
was ordered for the house and the next
morning at breakfast the coffee pot
came on as usual; when the beverage
was poured out and served to him he
told the servant that he had ordered
some Postum. a new drink, and did
not care for the coffee.
A laugh went round the table and he
declined to believe that the rich liquid
with the aroma and fragrance that
reached his nostrils was the health
coffee. investigation, however. con-
WINGED him of the fact, and it's use day
by day without the old sick feeling
clinches the argument.
Postum is made by the Postum
Cereal Co., Linn. of Battle Creek,
Mch, and has a winning way of it's
own; when once introduced into the
family it answers every purpose of the
finest coffee without the attendant
aches and ills. Being composed strictly
and wholly of the pure cereals there is
no question or argument or possible
doubt regarding the healthful and
nourishing properties, for children as
we'll as adults.
There is but one genuine original
Postum Cereal coffee, with a multitude
of limitations offered as Just as good"

be classed as so so. A feature which
caused as much interest as the play
was the vItascope exhibited by Pro-

invention, one of Edison's, throws
moving pictures on the canvas and

The first l saw of them was two years

through my seine, but last year | caught
as many as 400 at one haul, and all OF the
small ones ran through my seine. There
are all sizes of them. | am very careful
ard turn them all back in the lake, for
I am very much interested in the fish.
If you will come up here in June, when
