Boiled Down.

An amusing story is told of the editor of q
go-ahead evening newspaper, who, in the
eternal rushing to press to get ahead of the
opposition, was constantly impressing upon
his reporters the necessity of condensing all
news.
A terrible boiler explosion had taken place
on board big ship lying at Portsmouth.
Get down there as hard as you can" he
said to one of mis- men. IF YOU catch the
ll:40 from London bridge you'll be there
soon after two, and you can just wire us
something for the extra special-but boil it
And the reporter went.
:, Soon after three o'clock that afternoon
they got wire from him:
Terrific explosion. Melpomene. Boiler
empty. Engineer full: Funeral tomorrow.
No flowers. "-Spare Moments.

Peter Burke's Suit to Recover
$4,000 Shares From Ryan.
SUPREME COURT DOINGs
IN BURGESS VS.. CITY RAILROAD
AND KIRWIN VS.. PIDCoCK.
Plaintiff Non-suited On the Principal
Cause of Action In Mcintyre VS..
Ajax-Suit of w. II. Sells VS.. Salt
Lake City on Trial-Probate Orders
and Miscellaneous Court Notes.

The case of Peter Burke VS.. H. NJ.
Ryan ct al. came on before Judge
Hart yesterday 1t is a jury trial, and
Will doubtless continue during the day.
In this action Burke sues Ryan because
of an alleged failure TO deliver about
$4,000 shares OF stock which Burke
claimed was due him from Ryan, as
one OF the trustees of the Ajax Mining
company. Burke claims that about
$4,000 shares were due him, and that
he got $4,000 only.
In the hearing yesterday the plaintiff
testified that he took the $4,000 shares
and receipted for them, and did SO with
the understanding that as soon as he
did so he would begin suit to recover the
balance. He claims that Ryan con-
verted the stock to his own use, and
that he wrongfully withholds the same
from him.
In the damage suit of Charles Bur-
CESS VS.. the Salt Lake City Railroad
company, appellant, the supreme court
yesterday handed down an opinion,
written by Justice Bartch and con-
Justice Miner, reversing the Judgment
of the trial court, and granting a new
trial.
Burgess recovered a verdict and
Judgment for 81 $50 for personal injur
les sustained by his being run into by
a car of the defendant company on
Second South street, opposite the Cul-
len hotel.
The supreme court found that there
was no evidence whatever in the rec
ord to show that the plaintiff was in
jured by the negligence of the COM
pany, but that it was by his own care
leSSneSS and incautiOn.
