A WoMAN's AIM.
Threw at Cow and Nearly Killed
Her Daughter.

Logan, April 19.-The old adage rel
alive to the inaccuracy of a woman's
aim was verified by a lady living in
Paradise yesterday. She and her lit
tie daughter were attempting to drive
a trespassing COW from their property,
and becoming enraged because the an
imal refused to be driven out the
woman hurled heavy coffee pot, partly
filed with coffee, at it. The missile
went wide of its intended mark, but
struck the little girl on the head, in
f1icting a terrible cash, which extended
from the bridge of the nose upward to
the top of the head The child was
brought to Logan for surgical attend
ance, and DR.. Ormsby had to take
eight or nine stitches to close up the
wound.

A UNIQUE POINT OF LAW
GROWING OUT OF ILLEGAL APP
PoINTMENTS OF JUSTICES.
Mrs. Waugh's Damage Suit Against
the City-District Court Orders
and Miscellaneous Doings of the
Courts.

Justice Nielsen has had under ad-
probably render his decision about the
middle of next week, a case involving
new and unique point of law which
has never been passed upon by any
tribunal in the state and probably by
none in any other state.
An action was brought in Justice
Nielsen's court by Attorney Barlow
Ferguson to recover a small amount
alleged to be due for goods sold and
delivered. The defendants attorney,
S. II. Lewis, demurredAto the complaint
on the ground that the action was
barred by the statute of limitations.
The arguments, on the demurrer de-
veloped the fact that the action was
originally brought before Justice Bla-
yer, who rendered Judgment for the
plaintiff. The defendant appealed to
the district court, where the action was
dismissed for the reason that Blazer
was not legally qualified justice of
the peace. Blazer, like Lochrie, was
appointed justice ofothe peace by the
board of county Selectmen, under the
territorial government. The district
court held that these appointments
were invalid, and that the county COM
missioners had no authority to make
them, and. although the appointees
took the oath of office. filed the proper
bonds and heard and adjudicated many
cases, the district court held that they
were not justices of the peace, either
de facto or de jure, and that their
judgments were absolutely void.
The question which now arises and
which Justice Nielsen is called upon
to decide is, Does the statute of linn
itationS run against a plaintiff in an
action that was brought in good faith
and passed upon by one of those illegal
justices, or has the running of the stat
ute been stayed by reason of the ap-
peal?"
The point is quite important. as there
are scores of cases which were tried
before Blazer and Lochrie, in which
the rights of the litigantS depend on
the decision

st. George, Utah. April 1.-THE Cot

northeast corner of the st. George val
ley, but when the canal is completed
it will flow directly over the Red Bluffs

and distributing the water to any por-
ton of the valley. The plan of the
canals construction has been to follcw

upon the conveying of a ditch along a
mill side. and as far as possible a rocky
hard formation has been selected for
the canal site. thereby reducing seep-
&c to a minimum.
The successful completion Of this en-
terprise is due to the energy and ex-
perience of Councillor Brigham Jarvis
and his associates. The cost Of the
present canal is about $4,000, and when
completed viii be about s12,0 900. The
volume of water under ordinary condi-

BOSTON WOOL MARKET.
Quotations of Utah, Montana and
Wyoming Fleeces.

Boston, April 19.-The wool market here
continues very dull and the actual bust
ness has been the least of any week vet
reported. The fact Of the matter is that
with war looking very probable there is
less disposition on the part of the manu-
facturers to buy wool than since the
trouble first began. Dealers as a rule are
accepting the situation as it is and where
they see no one desiring TO buy wool they
are not trying to force business. although
a buyer with cash could probably get
concessions from present prices quoted on
nearly all kinds of domestic wool. Quota

tition requests some action by the
council by means of which the saloons
must close. The ladies of the Presby-
terrain church are responsible for the
move, and it is receiving the hearty
support of the female voters of the
town. But very few of the men, how
ever, place their signatures TO the doc
ument, the great majority believing
that the closing of the saloons enlarges
rather than reduces the sale of liquor.
