$4,000 REQUIRED.

1t was estimated that something over
$4,000 would be required to make the
congress a success and credit to the
state, and from the fact that this will
furnish the first great opportunity for
Utah TO advertise her resources, it was
believed by the committee that this
amount could be raised without diff
Guilty.
The working force of the committee
formed at the preliminary meeting Of
the 18th was increased by the appoint
ment of a large number of mining men
from all parts of the state. A full list

Accident.

last night discussed what should be
done with the $4,000 sinking fund on

sick, is about the city again.

old nephew of Mrs. ]. M. Coombs, who
had a narrow escape from broken limbs
or worse, is reported better. The little
fellow was getting off from wagon
with hay rack on. and his left leg
caught in the wheel. Before the wagon
was stopped it was twisted into the

His Home.

Kaysville, Feb 23.-The unfortunate
young man. David Clark. whose mys-
terious disappearance from home was
reported in yesterdays Herald, reached
home yesterday afternoon, after four
DAYS absence. He was met by some
KaysviIle boys yesterday morning near

osTEoPATHY CASE ARGUED.
An Exchange of Personalities in the
Croco Case.

Croco Case.
The case of the state VS.. William
Hartford. which has become widely
known as the Utah Osteopathy case.
was argued yesterday and submitted
TO Judge Rolapp. E. NJ. Allison, city
attorney, made the opening and clos
ing arguments. Herbert Macmillan
and J. H. Macmillan the intervening
ones. The contention of Mr.. Allison
was that the law requires persons who
treat, operate or prescribe for ply
s l-Ine.t to have Is physicians
certificate, and that Mr.. Hartford was
treating patients without such certifi-
cate. The case hinges on the legal
meaning of the word treat" the de-
Tense claiming that the manipulation
practiced by Mr.. Hartford is not treat
ment in the medical or legal sense of
the word. To admit the contention of
the prosecution would, they contend,
prohibit a barber from brushing and
washing a customers head for scalp
disease.
Judge Macmillan made quite an elo-
quent plea, comparing the physicians
who were urging measures against os-
teopathists to the Phillistines of DID,
who prosecuted the greatest Healer of
all the ages.
Judge Rolapp did not intimate when
THE CROCO CASE AGAIN.
The case of William W. Croco VS.. the
Oregon Short Line was up again yes
terday before Judge Rolapp on the
plaintiffs motion to have the verdict of
the jury set aside on the ground that
it was exorbitant. The proceedings de-
veloped another exchange of unpleas-
antries between Farley Williams and
David Evans. The former, in his argu-
-nent, persistently referred to Evans &,
Rogers as partners and co-plaintiffs
with Croco and all the while denounced
the action of Croco as disgraceful, out
rageous and the result of champerty
practiced by Croco's attorneys. He
pleaded earnestly for the setting aside
of the verdict, so as to preserve the
ethics of the legal profession and save
that profession from calumny and dis
grace.
Mr.. Evans reply was brief. but ami
mated. He stated that when Mr.. Will
liams spoke about purity and ethics and
about the dishonesty of himself (Mr.
Evans) he was simply the most arrant
hypocrite that ever lived Mr.. Williams
had acknowledged in open court that
he had taken a case with Evans as
client where the arrangement for fee
was similar to the one had in this case
by Evans & Rogers. He further as
serted that Mr.. Williams had garbled
in his readings from the testimony and
files and that he was untruthful from
the soles of his feet to the crown of his
head.
Mr., Evans then went on with his ar
gument. The court took the motion I'M

Expect to Strike It In the Next

Brigham City, Feb. 2S.-Willard Han
sen, on whose land near Collinston the
coal discovery is, was in the city to-
day. He says that the parties who are
sinking the shaft are as confident of
success as ever. The water comes into
the shaft so fast that 1t hinders their
progress They are still in a shale for

and expect in the next u feet to strike
the true vein of coal. Mr.. Hansen
starts with cattle for Chicago tomor-
row. He is not very sanguine of the
coal find, because there have been so
many prospects in that vicinity.
