FOUND HER LOST DAUGHTER.
Story of Heart-broken and Devoted
Chicago Mother.

Chicago. March AFTER nearly II
years constant search and the spend
ing of moderate fortune, Mrs. Fl. a.
Banks, formerly Mrs. Henry Frederick
of this city, believes that through the
accidental reading of a small item in a
newspaper, she has found daughter
taken away nearly a decade ago by her
husband, and whom for years past she
has mourned as dead.
According to Mrs. Banks story, she
was married 90 years ago to Henry
Frederick in Omaha, Neb. After liv-
ing together for nine years, Frederick
left, taking both of the children. The
elder daughter, Addie shortly after re-
turned, but no trace was found of
Frederick and the other child. Eight
years ago Mrs. Frederick married Her
man A. Banks, a wealthy contractor
in Omaha, and then continued her
search. One night in September, 1896,
her husband disappeared. He had
nearly 5000 with him, and it was be-
lieved he had been murdered. He has
not been heard of since. To add to
Mrs. Banks misfOrtunes, six months
ago her 6-year-old son was drowned.
Her money had already given out. and
broken-hearted and prematurely gray,
she gave up all search for her daugh-
ter. A day or two ago the Chicago
police received a letter from Hattie
Frederick of Syracuse. Wyo., asking
that search be made for her mother
and sister. for whom she had searched
for years. Miss Frederick said she had
traced them to Chicago during the
Worlds fair, but had then lost all track
of them This story found it's way into
the newspapers. where Mrs. Banks
read it. and today she made arrange
ments to start west at once in the be-
lief that she has at last found her
daughter.

LoeANs SALOON ORDNANCE.
Council Adopts Stringent Regulations
-Temperance People Displeased.

Logan. March 1.-The city council
met last evening and passed new or
dinance regulating the liquor traffic
within the city The temperance conf
mittee appeared with their petition just
after the ordinance had been started
on its passage. They came very nearly
letting it pass without asking to be
heard. Finally Professor Thomas,
spokesman, asked permission TO pre-
sent their petition, which was granted,
and then & prOtractsd discussion fnt-
lowed. The new ordinance leaves the
license at the same figure rs former V.
viz: Wholesale, $3.50 per quarter; retail,
1925 per quarter. 1t fixes the hours OF
business at from a. m. till IL D. m,
prohibits minors being in the saloon
and makes them liable to punishment
as well as the saloon keeper. 1t also
provides for the removing of all chairs
and loaflng accommodations from the
saloon, and requires that all screens,
blinds, etc, be removed after closing
hours, so that an unobstructed view
of the interior may be had when the
saloon is not open. Pictures, statuary
or engravings of any kind are forbid
den. and no billiard or pool room can De
legally conducted within 200 feet of the
saloon. 1t makes it an offense to give
or sell liquor to minor Indian or
drunkard, or for either of them to ac-
cept. Offences are punishable by not
more than S100 fine and three months
imprisonment The temperance people
made a strong objection to the bill be-
ing passed in that form, but it was
without avail, as the Democratic ma
iority consider it a fulfllment of their
ante-election pledges. The petition was
accepted and filed and the ordinance
passed.
Then the temperance people wanted
their petition back again, stating that
they would present it later. Their re-
quest, however, could not be complied
with, the petition having been fled.
Another ordinance. licensing and regu-
lating pool and billiard tables and pin
alleys, was then passed. Several other
minor matters were passed upon before
adjourniug.

UNIFORM CODEFOR UTAH TOWNS
ALL THIRD-CLASS CITIES IN
VITED TO COOPERATE.
Revision of the Ordinances Made
Necessary By the State Code
Kaysville Takes the Initiative.

Kaysville, March 4.-The Kaysville
step looking to the completion and
adoption of a uniform code of NUM-
cipal laws and ordinances for all third
class cities in the state. At the last
session the recorder was instructed to
correspond with the officers of a NUM-
Der of cities in Cache, Tooele, Utah,
Sanpete and Davis counties, in order
to secure their cooperation in the
plan proposed, and some of the cities
have signified their desire to adopt the
suggestion.
me necessity of a new set of ordi-
nances arises from the fact that the
compiled laws of 1898 repeal all special
municipal charters. divide the corpor-
atoms into three classes and define the
powers and privileges of the cities of
each class, thus bringing all cities of
the same class upon a common basis.
The repeal of special charters of third
class cities renders it absolutely neces-
sary that radical changes be made in
the ordinances. and it is thought that
a code of ordinances of a general ma
ture might be drafted that will meet
the requirements of all such cities The
duties of officers and the regulations
concerning the peace, good order,
health, morality, comfort and conven-
fence Of the citizens, it is thought, can
be made general. as can also the sched-
ule of licenses, and this last item alone
viii remove one source of constant an
noyance to officers of third-class cities,
who are frequently reminded by
transient individuals who are subject
to license, that certain other cities do
not demand such licenses, and hence
they will stand a suit as to the legality
of the tax. Many cases of unimportant
litigation might be avoided by uni
form schedule such as has been pro-
posed.
1t is estimated that the compilation
and printing of a set of ordinances will
cost about $3.50, whether for one city
or more, and if all third-class cities can
be induced to unite on the matter, the
expense will be reduced to a very nom
inal sum for each.
1t has been suggested that a state
convention of representatives of third
class cities be held, but, while this sug-
gestion may ultimately be adopted,
nothing of a definite nature has yet
been done to that end. All future ac-
lions on the matter will be guided
largely by the answers received from
the cities that have been communicate

o'KEEFE RELEASED.
Justice Hulaniski Discharged the
Alleged Gambler.

]. ]. O'Keefe had a hearing yesterday
afternoon before Justice Hulaniski on
the charge of keeping a gambling house
and was discharged. The prosecution
endeavored to prove that O'keefe had
a number of men at his place on lower
Twenty-fifth street and that they were
engaged in playing poker for money.
As this was one of the first cases since
the effort at enforcing the ordinance it
attracted great attention and when Jus
tice Hulaniski delivered his opinion it
was before a court room full of men
interested in the business. The wit
nesses for the prosecution were Cap

Ezra Farr. who testified to watching a
full-fedged game in progress through
the window. They So , money on the
table and saw it change hands. How

joicing in the court room thereat.

OF cases which il is proposed TO bring

RESIDENCE DESTROYED.
Fire In Birch Greek Precinct Early
This Morning

Early this morning fire almost en-
tirely destroyed the dwelling occupied
by Mrs. H. NJ. Jarvis, in Birch creek
precinct, corner Adams avenue and
Thirtieth street, nearly two miles south
of the central fire station. The alarm
was sent in by telephone about 12:15,
and the department responded, but the
house. a two-story frame, was envel-
oped in flames before the men arrived.
What was saved OF the house will not
be of much value.
Mrs. Jarvis and her daughter were
asleep when the fire awakened them.
1t was probably caused by a fire left
burning in a stove.
The building was owned by the Jar
Wis Conklin Mortgage Trust company,
and was probably insured. 1t was a
handsome residence and one of several
built by the company during boom
times. The loss is about $1,000, al
though the original cost was much
greater. Most of the handsome furni-
ture was destroyed, although some of
the most valuable pieces were saved.
The furniture is believed to be fully
insured.
Immediately after the fire was dis
covered. Mrs. Jarvis received n serious
injury to her back, while assisting in
carrying out a writing desk, DR.. Baker
attended her.

Castle Gate, March "a serious acct
dent occurred in the mines this after
noon to Chris Halverson, a driver. 1t
appears that he was bringing a loaded
car out to the switch; the mule made
a swerve to one side, throwing the car
off the track. The young mans left
leg was caught between the gun" and
the car, receiving such injuries that it
is feared that ne has sustained a frac-
ture just above the knee joint, beside
the leg being badly lacerated. He will
be taken to the hospital in the morn
ing. Great sympathy is shown to the
mother of the young man. He had the
same leg broken some time ago.
Elders Chichester, Tolman, Crawford,
Young, Madsen and Hubbard held serv-

complished through the untiring efforts
of these missionaries.
