MAYNE SUES FOR DAMAGES
CLAIMS ]. A. BROWN FAILED TO
DELIVER SOME STOCK.
Rise In the Price. Of Bunker Hill AL
. legged as Cause For Browns Fail
ure to Live Up to Contract.

L. Roy Mayne yesterday filed suit in
in Justice Sommer's co-rt against J. A.
Brown, claiming damages to the
amount of 1929. In his petition Mr..
Mayne states that he arranged three
trades of mining stock with the defend
ant. Two of the deals were carried
through, but the third hung fire.
By the terms Brown is alleged to
have agreed to exchange 5000 shares of
stock in the Bunker Hill for a like
number of shares in another company.
Mayne says, he performed his part of
the contract, but Brown stood him off
on the plea that the Bunker Hill GER
tificate had not been made out to him
yet.
Later strike was made in the Bun
ker Hill and the price of the stock
went skyward. Since then Brown has
failed to deliver, as per the alleged
agreement, and Mayne claims he has
been damaged to the extent named.

Malad, Sept. 1s.-The second crop OF

lacks one-third in some parts of the val
ley and one-half in other parts of being as

1t is understood that Malad will have
not more than three months school this
year. The new school house will not be
ready for use before January next.
Hay is selling for 40 cents per ton more

Against Him at Logan.
Especial to The HeraId)

Logan, Sept. 2O.-George w. Jones, the
man sentenced last week to twenty-five
days in Jail for assaulting Dr. Philips of
Wellsville, was arraigned this afternoon
on the. charge of adultery. He pleaded
not guilty, and at the hearing which fol-
lowed was convicted by the woman be has
been living with, who gives her name as
May Walker.
She claims to be the wife of Francis
Walker of Salt Lake. She says she was
married to him in 1897 and lived with him
until last May, when they separated. She
met Jones on July 20 of this year and
five days later consented to go to Wells
vile to keep house for him and his father.
He induced her to sell all her furniture
and then got the money she obtained for
it from her. After staying in Corinne and
Brigham for a short time, they moved to
Wellsville and lived there till the time of
his arrest. The woman admitted illicit
relations with Jones. She, according to
credible reports, is the third woman he
has duped in the past year. Mrs. Walker
has two children and has been twice mar
ried, Joseph Honey of Salt Lake being her
first husband. She was divorced from
him in 1895. Jones was held in bonds of
$500 to await the action of the district
court. In default of bail he went to Jail.

The association has also sent
a notice to the effect that unless the
parties intending to exhibit livestock,
make their entries at once, in the sec
retary's office, they may find some diff
ficulty in securing suitable stalls. The
directors will do everything possible to
accommodate everybody, but those
making their entries first will have to
be provided for, in preference TO those
who come in the last minute. If the
entries are made now and the society
should find that more accommodation
was needed they will have time TO pro-
vide il.
A letter from J. A. Wright, secre-
tary of the state board of horticulture,
was received yesterday. Mr. Wright
asks that someone be appointed TO re-
ceive entries in Weber county. Secre-
tary Sears replied that this would be
impossible. owing to the great num-
bers of entries and the necessity of
having them made in one Office, so
that track might be kept of them.
