and experience teaches us that there
are eases In which the accuscd's sole
defense Is n good character, and yet
this may outweigh the most positive
proof. Conspiracy may charge an in
nocent man with crime. and forge its
chalr Of suspicion and falseh0od so
sklli;uliy that nothing but a life Of UNI
blemished integrity and honor can
break 1t. Such evidence is clearly ad-
mlssible. and may not only raise
doubt as to the defendants guilt. but
bring "A conviction OF his innocence.
In all criminal prosecutions, what
ever be the degree OF the offense with
which the accused is charged, evidence
Of his good character may be intro
duced by him without reference TO me
apparently conclusive or unconoluslVe
character OF the other evidence"
The court then orders a reversal OF
the case.
The. opinion is written by Justice
Bartch and concurred in by Justice
Chief Justice Zane files qualified
concurrence and says:
81 am Of the opinion the evidence OF
intent was sufficient to convict, II
proved beyond n reasonable doubt, the
defendant was treasurer Of Eureka
city; that he had in his possession
S67f6S of its money knowing II to be
such. and that he Intentionally con-
verified II 10 his own use by paying II to
his individual creditors. or otherwise
He could not be heard to say that he
thought he had right to deposit 1t in
the bank to his private account and
appropriate 1t to his own use by de-
voting It to the payment Of his in
divldual creditors. Such facts having
been proved beyond reasonable doubt,
the intent to Violate the law IL con-
clusively presumed. The defendant
could not be heard to say he did not
intend to violate the law. A distinction
may be made In such case between
an intent TO do the unlawful act and an
intent to v the law. The defend
ant was required to know the law.
II concur in the opinion as to other
points decided by the court"
The defendant. 1t Is understood, Is
out on bail. He viii now be given an

The members OF the Utah cavalry
troop at Camp Merritt. California, have
given names to all their horses In
deciding a plan by which the horses
could receive their official designations.
Captain Calne hit upon hte idea of
naming the animals after gentlemen
in Utah, who had shown their apprecla-
tion of the troop previous to its de-
parture. Reading the list of names. one
would think the horses were members
of the Alta club, but such is not the
case. The club having so substantially
aided the troopers just previous to leav-
ing, the latter determined to show their
appreciation by recording for their
steeds such names as Alta. Moon, Raw
Inns, Knowlton, Richardson, Cannon,
Swenson, King. Boardman, Dern, Wad-

A sure indication of thin, weak, inn

monition that the blood is not

An imperative demand for the tonic,
vitnlizing effect of Hoods Sarsa-
parilla upon the blood. ID
Weak, nervous, tired men and wom-

strive too hard to "keep their
ends up" women too anxiously
work ''on their nerves" to meet
the demands of home and society,
all have too little sleep, and the
excessive drain on strength and
nervous energy will soon com-
pletely ruin health.
The strength must be built up by pure
blood, and the nerves must also
find in pure blood the proper nerve
food. For this purpose nothing
equals Hoods Sarsaparllla.
The thousands of wonderful cures II
has accomplished, the like OF
which no other medicine and no
combination of medicines cam
show, prove its curative merit;
prove that it has never been
equalled AS blood medicine;
prove that Hoods Sarsaparila is
indeed the ideal spring medicine,
the best nerve and stomach tonic,
the one true blood purifier.
