HE NEVER CAME BACK.
Brigham Man Victimized By a
Smooth CRATER

Brigham City, March pa young
man who lives in the Second ward had
a little experience which should last
him life time. He has been working
in the southern part of the state, and
was coming home to visit. Between
Salt Lake and ogden a very smooth
young man accosted him in a familiar
manner. claimed to know him, and
said that he, too, was from Brigham
City. When the acquaintanceship was
sufficiently ripened, the fellow asked
our townsman to loan him $50. saying
he had to use $50, and had but $40 in
change with him, but he would surely
repay it as soon as they got to Brig
ham City, where he was connected in
some way with the bank. The $50 gold
piece was unsuspectingly loaned by the
Brighamite to the smooth acquaintance.
At Ogden the fellow got off the train,
asking our young man to keep the seats
reserved for them, so they could be to-
gether and have a good talk on the way
w..
When the train pulled out for this
city, the man did not come back, and
the young man began to be anxious
for the return of the borrowed money.
Some of our citizens who were on
the train noticed that he was in
trouble, and to them he told his tale
of woe. He is now a sadder and wiser
man.

DOG CATCHER ABUSED.
RACY CASE AT NEPHI.
Eureka Landlady Secures Judgment
For 81 aba Mining Case.

For 81 ,291-A Mining Case.
Nephi. March 22.-The case of Ellen
Taylor VS.. w. D. Myers, occupied the
attention of Judge Higgins court to-
day, and the testimony of witnesses was
of a decidedly racy and conflicting char
acter-
The evidence developed the fact that
love, matrimony, dishwashing and dis
appointment were about equally blend
ed in the case, and at times it was diff
cult to determine whether it was a
case brought to recover for labor ner-
formed, or affection blighted.
The rosy-cheeked complainant was a
young widow from Ogden, who had
been engaged in conducting a lodging
house in Weber's metropolis, but hav-
ing heard glowing accounts of the pros
perity of Tintic, hied herself hither to
look over the business opportunities.
1t occurred that a certain hotel in
that thriving city was complete in all
its appointments. except a landlady. 1t
appears to have been only a brief mat
ter for the landlord of the famous Hotel
Keystone and the junction city widow
to arrive at an understanding, by which
they were to combine their fortunes and
energies in making the hosiery the
Knutsford of Tintic.
Two hundred dollars per month was
to be allowed the landlady, and she
now sues for 1851.
At the conclusion of the testimony
arguments We're made by Attorney
Burton for the plaintiff, and Attorney
Warner for the defendant. and at $3.50
the case went to the jury. After re-
naming out one hour they returned
into court with a verdict awarding
plaintiff the sum of 1921. The case
will likely be appealed.
A MINING CASE.
This was followed by the case
of William d. Wilson ct al. VS.. Triumph

ton involving possession of the Morn
