COLONEL TARBET'S VIEWS.
Well Known Salt Laker Interviewed
at New York.
New York Times

Colonel Alexander H. Tarbet, who re-
Gently sold the. Center Star gold mine
at Rossland, B. c., for $2,000,00O, and
who has just purchased the After
Thought copper mines of Shasta coun-
ty. California, is at the Fifth Avenue
hotel. Colonel Tarbet's presence in
New York is for the purpose of buy
ing machinery for the development of
his mining property. With Colonel
Tarbet is A. G. Lamson of Salt Lake
City, and they own the Salt Lake City
Water & Electrical Power company,
for which. they will also place orders
for machinery.
This company's plant is situated on
the Jordan river, twenty-five miles
south of Salt Lake City, and furnishes
power to the mills and mines of Mer-
cur. the famous gold camp of Utah,
an also to the camp of Bingham,
equally famous for its copper produc-
ton.
I'm all my experience" said Colonel
Tarbet last night Il have never seen
such all-around prosperity as at pres
ent prevails. This is particularly ex-
emplified in manufacturing. Even at
the high prices now ruling it is impos-
sible to have orders for machinery
promptly filed, manufacturers de-
manding at least six months time.
"A large firm today refused to ac-
cept any orders at less than seven
months, and declared that they were
daily getting further behind in filling
contracts.
Since I have been in New York 1
have heard talk of tight money. We
in the west think we know what tight
money is. but the banks in Utah and
Montana have a larger surplus now
than ever before. This is generally
true of all western banks. The days of
exorbitant interest in the west are
numbered. There is now no excuse for
the bankers charging the usurious
rates that have heretofore prevailed
there.
1.-The development of mines in the
last two years has been phenomenal,
and the production of-the precious and
baser metals shows an extraordinary
increase-at least 80 per cent

Sorrowing Friends Bid Farewell.


Manager Mundy of the wild animal

yesterday of the savage temper of
Sultana. whose cage Judge Colborn will
enter Friday night. Mundy was standing
too close to the cage. and Sultanas big
paw was sticking out of the bars Mundy
commanded her to put it back. and made
a move to strike her with his cane. Sui
tana, however. was too quick for him,
and made pass at Mundy, striking him
on the wrist The big claws went into
the bone, and it is almost miraculous that
from his arm AS it was, the pain was
so great that he tainted. When he re-
covered consciousness, Madame Pauline

TWO YEARS FOR CHRIS H|LBERG
MILL CREEK YOUNG MAN RE
CEIvEs SENTENCE.
Attorney Harrington's Motion For
New Trial oyerruled and an Ap-
peal Will Be Taken.

Unless the supreme court reverses
the finding of the lower court, Chris
topher Hilberg will serve two years in
the penitentiary for running little Annie
Ward. Yesterday Judge Norrell sem
fenced Hilberg to the states prison for
the period mentioned. ~
Prior to pronouncing the sentence,
Judge Norrell overruled the motion of
Attorney Harrington for the defense,
for a new trial. Mr.. Harrington
argued that the court had erred. in in
structing the jury on points of law but
Judge Norrell couldn't see it that way.
Notice of an appeal was at once. given
by Harrington.
Pending the appeal Judge Norreil
fixed Hilberg's bail at $4,000, which is
just double the bond under. which he
was formerly held. After some diff
ficulty and delay the defendant made
up his bond, the sureties being John P.
Cahoon and Christopher Hilberg, sr.,
the young mans father.
The defendant seemed to realize
yesterday for the first time the gravity
of his position. He had nothing to
say when sentence was pronounced
upon him and he had lost the f1ippant
manner which has characterized his
actions throughout the proceedings.
A jury was secured early yesterday
morning to try Golden Brown for
burglary. A clear case was made out
against the defendant and submitted
to the jury without argument. He was
found guilty after few moments of
elaboration the charge being reduced
to house breaking. Sentence will be
pronounced Friday.
Today John Gray, who made the
spectacular attempt to escape on Mon
daU will he hro11Cht down tO aT1SWpr
to charge of assisting Brown to
escape from prison. 1t is hardly neces-
sary to say that the penitentiary
guards will watch Gray very closely to
see that he does not repeat his at
tempt.

Still More Counterfeiting.

The secret service has unearthed an
other band of counterfeiters and Sc
cured a large quantity of bogus bills,
which are so cleverly executed that the
average person would never suspect
them of being spurious. Things of
great value are always selected by
counterfeiters for imitation, notably
the celebrated Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers, which has many imitators, but no
equals for Indigestion, dyspepsia. con-
stipation, nervousness and general de-
bility. The Bitters sets things right in
the stomach, ard when the stomach is
in good order II makes good blood and
plenty of it. In this manner the Bitters
get at the seat of strength and vitality,
and restore vigor TO the weak and de-
bilitated. Beware of counterfeiters
when buying.

EUREKA SCHOOLS.
Big Attendance and Buildings Over
crowded-Need of More Room.
Especial Correspondence

Eureka, Sept. 1s.-The public schools OF
Eureka have opened and the attendance
for the ensuing term is very large. about
42S pupils being enrolled. l.. A Ostein IS
principal and following is the personnei OF
teachers and the grades they will nave
charge of: -
Mrs. Mary NJ Ryan. eighth grade; u. u.
Bowen seventh grade; Miss Helen Snep-
ard. sixth grade Miss Grace Mills: ntth
grade; Miss Nellie Harrington, fourth
grade: Miss Eliza Mangun, third grace
Miss Annie Law. second grade; Miss Jane
Brown. first grade; Miss Lou Murphy, De-
ginners.
Owing to the room occupied by small
children being too crowded the school
board met and decided to adopt the half
day schedule until other arrangements
can be made. Other divisions are quite
full and it is hoped that more attention
will be given this very important matter
and either another school house erected
or some building rented and 1tted up Tor
that purpose Another very serious mat
ter that should be considered by those
having charge of school work. is the
fact that there are many children IN
Eureka of school age who are not attend
ing any of the schools. AT the present
time. while the rooms are so badly crowd
ed it would be almost impossible TO en-
force the school laws. but parents should
see to It that their children attend scnooI
and also that they are given proper &C
commodations while there.

employed in the Germania smelter, of
which Phelan is foreman, had come
down to testify for the plaintiff. They

filled it up.
Miss Addie Dunbar, who was sched-

This Number.

When the branch to Heber City is
completed there viii be seven stations
upon the line not including Heber it,
self. These stations have already been
named by the Rio Grande Western Off

Following is a summary of the week

Director Murdoch:
The temperature of the week ended

hauled to the factories as rapidly as
possible. Corn is being cut for fodder.
The last crop of lucern is being secured.
The ground is too dry for fall blowing

done Tomatoes are ripening very

fine for fruit drying.

WARRANT FOR A Transfer.
Charged With Unlawfully Taking
Away Hugh Anderson's Horses.

Mrs. Anderson, widow residing at
425 West Fifth South street, swore to a
complaint yesterday charging an en-
ployee of Hugh Watson with taking
horses out of custody unlawfully. 1t
is charged that Wdtson's horses have
formed an attachment for Mrs. Ander-
sons corn patch, and, according to her,
visit it with more frequency than good
effect. She was advised to tie them
up to her barn. which she did, pending
the arrival of mounted policeman.
The Watson man, however, deliberately
united them, she says, and now there
is trouble brewing
