THE PALACE OF SALT.
UTAH'S UNIQUE AND INTERESTING
PRODUCTION.

The salt palace in Salt Lake City, con-
structed from salt crystals formed in the
brine Of Great Salt Lake, is the most
novel enterprise ever undertaken in the
west. The main building is a veritable
crystal palace, and no adequate idea of
the dazzling effect can be secured except
from a personal view of the exhibition.
Connected with the palace is a Midway
Plaisance, including Hagenback's great
wild animal show and the fastest bicycle
track in the world. The palace is To-
Gated in the heart of a Lake City and
occupies about 20 acres of ground. The
only tr~anscontinental line passing direct
ly through Salt a City is the Rio
Grande Western railway. Stop-over
privileges given at Salt Lake City on all
classes of through tickets. This line OPP
crates through Pullman palace and ordi-

the evidence, of % feet-although it de-

defendant ought to be enjoined from min

There was also some contention on
the part of defendants as to what should
be considered the westerly end line of
said Snohomish lode claim. We do not
perceive that there can be any dispute
on that subject, as the enc lines of every
valid lode claim must be parallel and the
same appears to be the case in respect
to the Snohomish lode claim, at the area
in controversy. although the said claim
is to some extent irregular in it's outlines,

parallel end line of an adjoining claim,

lode, which is crossed by the strike of
the vein above described. Counsel for
defendants, in his argument, ~cOntended
that the line bounding the northwest por-
ton Of said Snohomish lode claim, should
be projected to a point We're it crosses
the strike of said lode, n would thereby
give to the Snohomish claim a greater
length of apex, but that would be clearly
erroneous, because it would destroy the
parallelism of the end ines of the Sno-
homish lode claim and woul invade the
surface area conceded to belong ito the
owners of the Michael Dewitt lode.
ut is therefore ordered that the de-
PENDANTS be enjoined and restrained,
pending the final determination of this
action, from mining and extracting any
ores and minerals from said vein, other
than UGH as may be found within the
area bounded by the planes of the west

POLICE COURT

Nancy Hanks. n of the veteran female
brigands Of the bad lands, was before
Judge Sullivan this morning. Nancy is
anything but beautiful and young and
she cannot go at the pace she could when
she adopted her stage name, but she man
ages to win out occasionally. Last night
a married man who has more family than
sense was inveigled into her place and
robbed of $50. Nancy was arrested in
consequence, pleaded guilty to the usual
charge, and was sentenced to 80 days N
the county bastilc.
Nancy has been before Judge Sullivan
on several occasions in the past on siEl|ir
charges. But on account Of her years and
the gentle graces of prevaricatiOn, Of
which she is a mistress, she has always
managed to get off with light punishment.
But her sentence this morning fairly took
her breath away. She gasped:
How about leaving town, judge?'
But the judge, with whom paticzca as
regards Nancy has ceased to be a virtue,
was obdurate and Nancy was led away to
the place where she cannot spin webs

Another decision handed down by the
judge related to the suit of the Butte &
Boston against F. Augustus
Heinze and Arthur P. Heinze. 1t was as
follows:
Butte & Boston Mining Company VS..
F. Augustus HeinZe and Arthur p.
Heinz Order in re temporary injunc-
ton:
"In this action the plaintiff alleges that
the defendants are wrongfully extracting
ore from a certain vein or lode beneath
the surface of the Michael Dewitt claim,
conceded to be owned and possessed by
the plaintiff. The defendants, by their
answer, justify the extraction of ore
therefrom by reason of the alleged fact
that a certain part of the apex of said
lode is within the Snohomish lode claim,
of which the defendants are part owners
and in possession.
"A hearing has been had to show cause
why the temporary restraining order
heretofore issued should not be made
permanent. Inc thereby it appears, with
out dispute, that the apex of the Wind
lass vein runs in its course almost en-
tirely in the Michael Dewitt lode, but in
its strike the said vein enters the Snoho-
mish near the southwest corner. crossing
the south side line of the Snohomish and
passing out at the west end line, the
length Of the apex of said vein lying
within the boundary lines of the Snoho-
mish lode being % feet.
Upon this hearing the defendants in
sisted that they were entitled to mine
and extract the ore from such portion Of
said vein as vas shown to have it's apex
within the exterior boundaries of the
Snohomish lode, although the said vein
departs on its dip outside of the plane of
the southern side line of said Snohomish
lode extending ~downwards and into and
beneath the said Michael Dewitt lode
mining claim.
plaintiff, on the other hand, contends
that it is the owner of and is entitled to
mine the whole of said vein notwith-
standing the fact that the apex of a por-
ton thereof lies within the Snohomish
lode.
The precise question involved in this
case was deliberately treated and deter

States in the case of the Del Monte Min
ing and Milling Company VS.. the Last

Mine Must Remain Idle Until a
Suit is Determined.
JUDGE LINDSAY PASSES
Upon Matters In Connection With 1t
and Other ClainS--LaWrence
Wins a Fall.

Judge Clancy and Judge Lindsay are
now holding court in the sam room. but
not at the same time. One convenes his
session after the other finishes. Yester-
day Judge Clancy kept his session in mo-
ton until about 4:3O o'clock and then
Judge Lindsay assembled the bench and
rendered several decisions in matters he
has had under advisement. One was in
relation to the application of Miles Fin
len for an order restraining F. Augustus
Heinze and others from taking from the
Minnie Healey mine a body of ore they
uncovered in the mine after they had
leased the property from Finlen. The
matter was heard before the cour two
or three weeks ago. When the suit was
first filed Heinze had about 60 men work.
ing on the property, but a temporary in
junction issued at that time closed the
mine down. 1t will now remain idle until
the suit is determined in court. The de-
follows:
miles Finlen VS.. F. Augustus Heinze
ct al:
"This is an action in the nature of
ejectment, by which plaintiff seeks to re-
cover from defendants possession of the
Minnie Healey lode mining claim. The
plaintiff alleges that on a certain date
stated in his complaint he was in pos
session and entitled to the possession of
said property under certain leases ana
agreements to sell n convey to him the
said premises and that on said date the
defendants, without right or title, en-
tered and ousted plaintiff from possess
sion thereof. The plaintiff also alleges
that defendants are mining and extract
ing valuable ores from said premises and
converting the same to their own use. to
prevent which acts plaintiff seeks an in
junction pending the trial of said ac-
ton.
Defendants by their answer contro-
vert the allegations of plaintiffs COM
plaint and also present an equitable de-
ferse to the effect that plaintiff. by a
parole contract made and entered into
in the month of November, 1898, agreed
to transfer his interest in said property,
under said leases and the said agree
ments for sale and purchase. to the de-
PENDANT, f. Augustus Heinze, by virtue
of which parole agreements Heinze al
leges he was in possession of the said
Minnie Healey lode mining claim on the
date of said alleged custer.
Hearing has been had upon an order
to show cause why an injunction should
not issue during the tendency of this ac-
ton, and upon that proposition alone the
! cause is now under judicial consideration
1t is therefore at this time unnecessary
as we'll as improper for the court to enter
upon any particular discussion of the
merits of the contention of the respective
parties. The court has carefully consid-
cred the showing made upon the question
of restraining the mining and conversion
! of ore from said premises and finds that
a temporary injunction is warranted and
ought to be issued pending the trial of
1T
dered."
