Paris, Dec. 25.-The optimistic ac- counts which were printed recently re garding the trial of the submarine tor pedo boat Narval are discounted by the fact that an order has been issued to cease work on two sister boats until defects in, the Narval have been reme- died.

A BIG REALTY TRANSACTION.
PROPERTY SOLD BRINGS THE
PRICE OF s47, 800.
Southeast Corner of Third South and
State Streets and Twenty Acres
On Third East Street.

A real estate transaction involving
s47 500 was contaminated yesterday by
the filing of a deed in the county re-
corder,s office. The grantors were
David Swickhimer and wife and the
grantee was Nathaniel S. Stone of Mil
ton, Mass. The property transferred
consisted of q lot 1151sx1151s feet at the
southeast corner of State and Third
South streets and twenty acres on
Third East street between Tenth and
Eleventh South Streets
1t is estimated that the twenty-acre
tract is worth $500 per acre or IS, OO0
The corner therefore brought less than
$4,000. All of the real estate was COW
cred by mortgage for $4,000, which
had been given by Mr.. and Mrs. Swick-
miner to Harvey A. Whiting of Mil
ton, n. II.
The Swickhimers live in Denver
They are heavy losers by the trade, as
they purchased the Third South and
State street corner at tire flag end of the
boom for $4,000. The deal of yesterday
was accomplished through the agency
OF E. b. Wicks, the deed being recorded
at his request. The corner lot is too
valuable piece of property to be al
lowed to remain unproductive.
1t is now occupied by a ram shackle
two-story house which was originally
intended for a residence, but which has
lately been utilized as a coal and kind
ling shop. There is also a small re-
freshment stand on it.

RECEIVING STOLEN GOODS
CHARGE ON WHICH DEPUTY
DOWSE ARRESTED TWO MEN.
Complaints Sworn to By Reed Smoot
of Provo Against Ross Ambrose
and August Smithy.

Deputy Sheriff Sam Dowse went to
Sandy and West Jordan yesterday and
arrested Ross Ambrose and August
Smithy. The men are wanted on a
charge of receiving stolen property, the
complaints having been sworn to by
Reed Smoot of Provo before Justice
Nielsen.
The property involved consists of nine
bolts of cloth which were stolen from
the Provo wooden mills last summer.
Part of the cloth was found by Deputy
Dowse in the possession of Ambrose
and part in the hands of Smithy. This
was several months ago. but no COM
plants were sworn out at that time be-
cause of the reluctance of the Provo
wooden mill people to take such ac-
ton.
1t is believed that the goods were
taken by the same gang of tramps
that broke into Rideout & Crapo's store
in Draper last July. Most of the men,
bers of this outfit are now doing time
in the penitentiary. Mr.. Dowse believes
that Ambrose is the principal in the re-
ceiving of the property, and that
Smithy merely acted as his tool. Both
men were lodged in the county jail.

polygamy, the speaker said that it had
