real merit.
During the last few years a great
many kinds of hoi-air treatments for
rheumatism have been invented, tried
and discarded. out at last one has been
found which, while there seems to be
a great chance of killing the patient,
may, if he escapes alive, be expected to
cure him. Numbers of successful eX-
periments have been made, notably
some of recent date in the Cook county
hospital, of Chicago. About year ago
Warden Graham and DR.. Thoren, OF
that institution, were in New York,
and there saw a ho:-air machine in
vented by Mr.. A. V. NJ. Sprague, of
that city, whose wife was a sufferer
from rheumatism. 1t had been found
to work satisfactorily, and Mr.. Sprague
offered to present his visitors with a
similar machine. BY means of this APP
paratus a person may be exposed to a
temperature of 400 degrees, or nearly
twice as hot as boiling water, without
serious inconvenience, because the hot
air is rendered entirely free from
moisture. Four hundred degrees of
heat will melt several kinds of metals.
If one drop of moisture were to gain
entrance and be diffused over the body
of an occupant, the whole skin would
be scalded and the patient would die.
Precipitation is burned up before it
can spread over the body.
The Sprague machine is double
cylinder, the inside of copper, the out
side of steel. An asbestos blanket is
between the two. Through the inner
lining, which is pierced with holes, the
heat penetrates like a shower bath.
Tiny jets strike the body simultane-
ously, but with far different results
than from an unbroken blast. An ar

Animals That Change Diet.

Instances of carnivorous animals
turning to a vegetable diet are rare.
One noted instance is Scotch deer
hound, which is so fond of peaches that
it will stand on its hind legs to reach
them on the trees. In New Zealand a
parrot took to sheep-killing and eating
and some pigs evinced a preference for
a diet of young lamb, while some Aus
italian sheep become not only car
niverous but cannibal.

COL ORED LOVER AND RAZOR
Ar1UCk IN A LODGING HOUSE

She would not swear to a complaint
against the frenZied Young.
Marguerite's lover went to the room
ing house at $3.50 and they met in the
hall. An alteration ensued and the
woman ran into her room, followed by
Young. He grabbed a frying pan and
hurled il at a piece of furniture. fol-

and slashing the curtains, then turn
ing upon the woman and cutting her
coat which she had on and all other
clothes that she had left behind.
Mrs. Papman made for him to pre-
vent the demolition of all the furniture,
but a moment later she rushed down
onto the street with her hand bleeding,
the four fingers of her right hand hav-
ing been cut to the bone. and Young
escaped through the crowd of excited
pedestrians that gathered.
Officer Eddington picked the man up
on Main street and Second South a lit
tie later, and at o'clock he appeared
in court. He denied everything.
The white woman said everything
was sociable" during the morning. then
went on to describe the affair. The de-
PENDANT told her several times she was
lying, but Marguerite insisted that
Young was jealous of her, and resented
the courts intimation that they were
lovers.
Young was sentenced to thirty days.

trade with the entire Pacific coast was
curtailed. That the tariff of 1898 caused
this falling off was shown, he said, by
the fact that since May, 1899, when the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
abrogated the tariff and lessened the
difference between carload and less
than-carload rates, business in Wash
ington and Oregon had increased and
reached its original level, while that in
California had steadily refrigerated.
The firm. he said, was obliged TO COM
pete not only with the natural advan-
tages of the California jobbers. but also
with the artificial commercial advan-
tages accorded them by the railroads in
adopting the tariff of 1898.
The firm could only do business in
California by making freight allow
ances TO its customers. This allowance,
he said. amounted to an average of 80
cents on each 100 pounds of freight
shipped. This he contended, was clear
~ a loss of profit, due to discrimina-
ton.
He exhibited charts and tables, show
ing the fluctuations of the firms sales
and profits in California business dur
ing the last three years. They indi-
cate an increase in sales and a de-
crease in the percentage of profit

Improved Train Service.

Especial NorrespOndence.)
Mt. Pleasant, Nov. 16.-The patrons of
the Sanpete branch of the Western are
now enjoying for the first time in the
roads history a daily freight from Salt
Lake City to the end of the branch.
The new system was inagurated Tues

the immense traffic in freight which
the branch is doing, as the semiweekly
train could not possibly handle it. The
same train and crew makes the run to

down on a mixed train daily. The new
arrangements greatly benefit mer-

TWO DIVORCE SUITS ON REGU-
LATIoN GROUNDS.
Trial Of Railroad Damage Case Near
ing the End-Jury Will View the
acknowledgement Divorce Ac-
ton Still On Trial-Two Judg-
ments Entered By Default.

The supreme court yesterday af-
firmed the decision of the lower court
in directing a peremptory writ to issue
against State Auditor Richards re-
quiring him TO draw a treasurer war
rant for $1,000 to apply upon the uni
versity building fund account. The
opinion handed down makes it clear
that the university regents had a right
to demand of the auditor the issuance
of the warrant upon their requisition
as in their discretion was deemed
necessary, instead of calling for a
warrant to cover such sums as had al
ready been expended in a monthly
period.
State Auditor Richards believed there
was conflict between chapters % and
of the session laws Of 1899 and de-
cided to have the supreme court pass
upon the question before issuing the
warrant applied for. Chapter is the
act making special provision for the
erection of the university buildings and
fixing the manner in which the appro-
priated fund of 100000 may be drawn
upon, while the later enactment pro-
vides the method by which state in
situations may receive moneys monthly
from the treasury for discharging obli-
cations incurred for maintenance ex-
penses.
The supreme court opinion holds that
the latter enactment is not repugnant
to and did not repeal the former and
that the intention is clear that the
legislature vested in the university
regents a special power of discretion to
call for any part of the building appro-
priation not exceeding $4,000 at any
one time and that the auditor is
bound to honor the regents requisi-
ton for a warrant, irrespective of
obligations for the sum de-
had been incurred.
Immediately upon receiving notice
of the rendition of the opinion by the
supreme judges Auditor Richards de-
livered to the university regents the
desired warrant of $4,000 and an
his cheerful acquiescence in

LETTER FROM UTAH SOLDIER
ARRIVED IN MANILA ON OCT.
12.
Had Lively Experience In Ty-
phoon When Five Days Out From
His Destination.

Captain j. f. Game is in receipt o
the following letter written Oct. II. OF
board the transport Columbia a
Manila by one of his boys, James II
Payne who re-enlisted in company +
Thirty-fourth United States infantry
I'VE have just arrived in Manila bay
after an eventful trip across the Pa
cific and almost a disastrous trip, az
when we were out five days from
Manila we were struck by a typhoor
which nearly cost the lives of 60(
brave soldiers. We expect to go ashore
tonight or in. the morning but that
will not do us any good as orders are
for US to leave in the evening for the
south where the soldiers and marines
were defeated on the 9th of this month.
Il happened to be on guard during
the storm SO l had an opportunity to
see a little of high life on the ocean,
and can truthfully say that I don't
care to see that kind of life any more.
The Columbia is 277 feet long, and 80
feet beam. She carried light life boats
when we left Preside, but there is not
one fit for use. Their sides are all
cayed iE and useless.
I'VE had no sickness on board 10
speak of, and that was lucky as the
whole of the hospital was carried over
board. Two of the crew were washed
over and drowned. The captain of the
vessel was shed to the wheel for
twentyfour hours at one stretch and
all the crew are wearing bandagess oil
their feet as result of running across
the deck when it was flooded.
Our captain, Frank G. Russell, was
the only officer who ventured out of
the saloon. He came three or four
times every day TO see how the boys
were getting along. He is the most
popular officer on the boat
Il want to thank the people of Utah
through you for the gift of my medal.

major and all the boys admire it and
say it was very generous of the state
to present them to the boys.

not arrived yet. Enoch Cavanaugh is
a corporal, too. but is still at the

Lodge 1895, colored Odd Fellows, gave
grand soiree at their lodge room or
Richards street last evening, in which
dancing, music and refreshments form
ed important parts; but the star at
traction was a sabre drill between two
squads of five each of the best drilled
troopers of the Ninth cavalry, from
Fort Douglas. The drill was for sill

in the contest BIZ all present.
The first squad. under Sergeant J.

were Sergeants Cooper and Proved of

TO learn what changes, if any, VIII be
introduced on December LIST. or
the beginning of the new year. 1t was
surmised in railroad circles yesterday
afternoon that the general policy of
consolidation of interests would soon
cause changes in the local Union Pa
cific and Oregon Short Line city
ticket offices. AS now conducted both
offices cater largely to the same por-.
ton of the travelling public; they sell
tickets to the same points; they oc-
cupy two offices, and pay two rentals
where one would suffice, and employ
twice the force necessary to conduct
that branch of the business. The exact
nature of the changes in the clerical
force employed in the city ticket Of
fees was not stated, but il is under
stood that the administration is strong
for economy and the merging of the
two offices will, very likely, occur on
or about the first of December.
What is true of the Salt Lake offices
also holds true in regard to the Offices
in Butte and Portland. In the latter
city the Union Pacific Oregon Short
Line. and Oregon Railway & Naviga-
ton have three separate city ticker Of
fees; conditions no longer warrant
their being retained as separate insti-
tutions, and they will undoubtedly be
consolidated at the same time the Of
