HEARD AND SEEN
in TIMMONY'S COURT

A groggy, battered specimen, who, ae
the time of arrest, contained within him
nothing but his name, and finally re-
lapsed into John Doeism, was one of a
brace to comfort Timmony. Though
trifle deSpaired over counter attractions
his honor is still in the ring. John
turned out to be Michael O'Flaherty,
an 1rishman. Proudly he pronounced
the name, and the square and truthful
visage left no alternative.

went for.
John Wilson, who fell within the
fondling arms of Sheets while peddling
fake jewelry to little girl, claimed to
have sat on the pavement without in
juring it. He was from Murray, and
had chills, to say nothing of a brother
in the army.
Parts of the story were good, but
when Wilson gave the con about chills
on July q, with the thermometer at
80. under an electric fan, the court
whistled twice and said thirty days.

purpose. George Cole the veteran sex
ton who dug the grave in which the
| body repoSeS, remembered it well and
| pointed it out Plat 1, in which it is
| located, is a small section Of land in
nearly the center of the burying ground
and is surrounded on all sides by the
Well kept lots and graves in which lie
buried the dead who were more pros
porous in life than the wanderer who
finally found relief and rest in a pau
pers last resting place. The grave is
situated on the edge of Center street,
and is the fifth one in the row. 1t is
unmarked, the plain pine board which
had formerly been placed there having
rotted away and has not since been
restored. The grave. like those sur
rounding 1t, is overgrown with grass
ana weeds and plainly shows that a
friendless tenant sleeps within it.
Visited By His Son.
About twelve years ago. said
Grave Digger Role, "a middle-aged
man called on me and asked me to
snow him the grave. He told me that
ne was the mans son and that he
wanted to know just where the grave
was located. He said that his father
mad been deprived of an estate of great
value in France, and that he was
about to institute measures to regain
It. He claimed that he had all proofs
and would soon be able to get what
was his.
THE stranger was an intelligent
man, and from his dress and appear
alce judged at the time that he was
a working man. 1 have never seen
nor heard of him since"
Mr.. Weaver, the New York man who
made the inquiries regarding the death
and burial of Count Massena, stated
that his object in doing so was one
of curiosity, and expressed the belief
that MaSSena was an imposter. In a
letter to The Herald he states that
Marshal Massena had two sons. one
of whom died at an early age without
issue and the other succeeded to his
titles, Prince d'Essting and Due de
Rivoli He states that the New York |
newspapers recently announced the
death of the only son of the latter, who. |
1t appears, married late in life and |
leaves d young son, the only one of |
the name now living.
Even should all of the descendants |
of the marshal not be accounted for
he states in his letter, 1.-The fact that |
the person who died in Salt Lake called |
himself Count Massena would indi- |
cate the impoSture, as that title was |
not invested in the family-in fact, is |
entirely absent from the list of Ma
poleon'S creations, and confined to the |
Did noblesSe."
Nevertheless. all the records OBJ
tainable show that the occupant of
that unmarked grave was the son of
field marshal Those rec
Ords have never been contradicted by |
proof, although their accuracy has
been denied. IF the records lie, Count
MaSsena was one of the SmootheSt i'm
posters that ever came to this coun- |
-ry. If they are true-and there is no
-eal reason for believing otherwise,
his unfortunate drank the cup of Bit

INCORPORATION FILINGS.
Attorney General Holds Place of De-
post to Be With State Secretary.

According to an opinion rendered
yesterday by Attorney General Bishop
to Secretary of State Hammond,
amendments to articles of incorpora-
ton must be filed in the office of the
secretary of state in order to be of any
validity. The opinion was given in an
swer to a question as to whether an
amendment to articles of an irrigation
company should be filed with the secre-
tary of state, when at the time the
company was organized the law did not
require the original articles of incor-
poration to be filed in the secretarY's
office. Under the constitution and laws
of the state. the attorney general finds
that amendments to incorporation ar
ticles must be filed as stated in the
opinion.

TURNED DOWN BY "DR. SOL"
Jailor Refuses to Admit Christian
Science Women.

Two handsomely dressed ladies ap-
peared at the police station yesterday
afternoon and created CONSERVATION
among a group of officers by inquiring
if they could see Frank B. Jewett, the
morphine fiend, who tried to hang him
self with a shoe lace three nights ago,
and who is in Jail for an assault with a
pocket knife. The ladies were referred
to Jailer Kimball, who was attacked
with blind staggers when the visitors
informed him they were Christian Sci
entists, and their mission was to cure
Jewett of his malady.
Now, Soils reputation as a curist, was
by this Immediately brought into ques-
ton. He didn't care to be hampered
by competitors in the profession and
turned the ladies away with an obser-
walton to the effect that he had had
enough of that last year."
DR.. Sol, however, has admitted him
self to be something of a believer in
mans will and imagination. He de-
clares that on numerous occasions he
has fed crying fiends baking powder
which appeased their appetites as eff
fectually as the drug itself.

MRS. CLUT'S MURDERER.
Supreme Court Will Decide Hoff's
Fate Within Two Weeks.

There is every prospect that the SUI
preme court will pass upon the case
of Albert Hoff, who appears upon its
official record as ALBERT Frederic
George Vereneseneckockock with
in the next two weeks, the case having
been brought before this tribunal Nov.
s. 1898, and under actual consideration
for some days past. The appeal was
taken upon the judgment alone and
was based only upon technical points,
so that the evidence is not and has at
no time been under consideration or
dispute. The crime for which Hoff was
tried and found guilty and sentenced
to death was the murder of Mary Au-
gusta Clue, who was killed Dec. Is.
1897, sentence having been passed on
April 5, 1898, by Judge Carroll Cook in
II of the superior court.

PROGRESS ON PALACE
The Big Show Will Open in Three
Weeks.
SALT TO BE SPRAYED ON
INQUIRIES COMING IN FROM
THE EAST.
Roofing Is Expected Tomorrow and
Fifteen Extra Carpenters VIII Be
Includes Only High-grade Per-
formers-Bike Track Praised.

Much energy is now being displayed
in the big Salt Palace project, and the
building is rapidly nearing completion.
Inside of three weeks at the outside.
and probably within two, it will receive
the finishing touches. Architect Klet-
ting has arranged to bring in the salt
water from the lake, to be used in
Spraying the great structure, in car
loads. The roofing will arrive tomorrow
and the building will be put under
cover as speedily as possible. This is
going to neceSsitate additional help,
and fifteen or twenty skilled carpenters
can find employment if they will APP
ply to superintendent Judd.
The Salt Lake Electric Supply COM
pany, having charge of stringing the
wires through the building and
grounds, promises to have everything
in the lighting line fully ready before
the date set for the formal opening.
Interior Being Beautified.
The interior of the building is now
being beautified and finished with re-
markable rapidity-the decorators fol-
lowing right on the heels of the car
penters. Up to date, large number of
amusements have been secured for the
Midway Plaisance, which promises to
be one of the attractive features OF the
big exposition. Only such attractions
as have established national reputa-
tons are booked.
The secretary reports that a number
of business houses from the east and
west are making applications for space,
which is swelling the cash available to
carry on the good work considerably.
Subscribers to the fund are now COM
ing to the front with their subscrip
tons and receiving stock certificates
for the amounts. They are beginning
to realize that the Salt Palace is going
to be a paying Investment, aside (om
the benefit that will accrue to the
community.
Numerous letters are being received
from the east asking as to the exact
date when the Salt Palice will open.
This is a strong indication of the inter-
est taken on the outside in the enter
prise.
Enthusiastic Over Track.
Bicycle racers are most enthusiastic
in the praise of the Salt Palace COLI
scum. and it is everywhere conceded
that this is the fastest eight-lap saucer
track in the world, which is proved |
easily enough by the wonderful records |
recently established. The sporting pa |
pers of this country are commenting on |
the matter at considerable length The |
races will be held every Thursday |
night, as heretofore.
President Nelden is giving up a great |
deal of his time to details connected |
with the Salt Palace, and with his CO.
aborers in the cause is entitled to not !
a little credit.
Tomorrow morning the board will
meet at Q o'clock and examine the work
as it has progressed so far, and then
determine finally on the exact date of
The formal opening.

Firm That Is Happy.

In connection with this comes the re-
port from one of the largest vehicle
supply houses of the city that their
sales for the seven months ending with
July will exceed the total sales for the
entire year of 1898; and that was con-
sidered a good year by this firm. All
of this goes to show that the FARMERS
of Utah and the adjacent states are
preparing to live better than formerly
Another significant fact that creeps
out on inquiry is that common laborers
are demanding and receiving more
money for their work. There are no
concerns here employing large numbers
of men, so that little note is made of
the rise and fall of wages, but it is a
fact, nevertheless, that wages are go
ing up. Labor is the last element to
feel the influence of better times.
Real estate dealers experienced an
other dull week, as the record of trans
fers will show. All dealers complained
that the raising of prices by the hold
ers is defeating sales for them in very
many instances.

An Explanation,

As managers of the finances OF
st. Agnes Academy for the past
twenty years, l feel it duty to in
form the public in general, and the
Catholic congregation in particular,
that all the improvements and re-
pairs made on the Convent or
grounds have been paid for out OF
the Convent treasury, except SI2OU
raised at a fair given for the eX
press purpose of getting money to
finish the Academy.
The Convent records show that
the Sisters have, out of their own
private purse, expended between
four and five thousand dollars on the
Convent grounds; such being the
case we do not feel disposed to leave
uncontrolled the report, that the
money collected to defray the cur
rent expenses of the Catholic
Church, has been used to pay tol
recent improvements made in the
Convent yard. The property being
Diocesan it is the duty of the con
gregation to improve and repair it.
hence if the late rumor were true
'twould be simply long neglected
duty fulfilled. To the many who
have aided us in our labOrious work
we tender our sincere thanks, to the
few maliciousIy inclined we extend
our pity.

human body is actually appalling.
Constipation is considered nothing.
Indigestion is annoying but nothing
serious. Biiousnesss brings melan-

not the liver. A dose of Hostetters
