E. R. cLUTE WEDS A M|L[|NEa
SECRET MARRIAGE Or FORMTR
SALT LAKER.
Man Whose Wife Was Murdered Last
Year Now Figures In a Romance
at Salinas, California.

A special dispatch from Salinas, Cal,
to the San Francisco Examiner, an
nounces the marriage of E. r. Clute to
a milliner of that place. Clute resided
in this city for many years, and served
a term as city tax collector. The dis
patch follows:
Hardly had the people of Salinas be-
come acquainted with the news that
Murderer Hoff had been granted a new
trial for his brutal murder of Mrs. Clute
in March of last year, when William
Clute, the husband, who is we'll known
in Salinas as a commercial man, gave
them something to gossip about by Sc
cretly marrying a young woman We'll
known here.
1t has been the practice of Clute to
visit Salinas once every sixty days.
Last May, while here, he made the ac-
Quaintance of Bell Prather, a trimmer
in a fashionable millinery store, who
sympathized with Clute in his sorrow.
Clute departed, but. it appears, kept
up a correspondence with Miss Prather
About July Is Clute was in Salinas
again, and three days after his depar-
ture Miss Prather quit her work, say
ing she was going to San Francisco to
visit friends, and might be absent for
some time. Nothing more was heard
of the pair until today, when the town
and the intimate friends of both parties
were astonished to learn that Miss
Prather had three weeks ago been mar
ried to Clute in the metropolis.

RETURNING KLONDIKERS.
Pronounce Cape Nome Gold Fields a
Humbug.

James T. Fulton, manager of the
Phillips-Judson railroad excursions,
was in town yesterday with a party of
twenty returning Klondikers. They
were about town and at the lake re-
sorts all day and left for the east last
night. Most of the party hailed from
New York, few from Chicago
and one from Hamburg. Germany
Among them were: NJ. P. Palmer, Nj
j. CARAT, n. Rhodes. H. c. Dugan, L.
Dugan, c. Dexter. John Smith and
brother and w. Johns of New York; B.
Waller, J. B. Andrews and r. II. Du-
yane of Chicago. and Herman Merrill
of Hamburg.
They were all more or less burdened
with nuggets and government drafts.
but none would divulge the amount of
his holdings. r. H. Duyane was the
most youthful member of the contin-
gent, having just celebrated his eight
zenith birthday He gave an interesting
account of his experiences. He ven
tured to sharply criticise the promoters
of the Cape Nome scheme. There is
nothing there except six inches of moss
and a glacier. and the scarcity of gold
can be imagined when they would not
sell us any of it, though we offered them
S25 an ounce for it. It's a big humbug
and the promoters of the scheme ought
to be strung up. Hundreds of people
are flocking there, and there's nothing
in sight but snow, misery and starva-
ton"

LEHI'S PROBLEM.
People Figuring On How to Pay For
Electric Light Stock.
(Special CORRESPONDENCE.


Lehi, Aug. Sat the meeting of the
city council last evening. it was decided
to hold a mass meeting in the tabernacle
to get an expression of the citizens as to
how the money needed by the city for the
electric light stock taken by the city shall
be raised-whether the city shall be bond
ed or a special tax imposed.
1t has been decided by the committee
having charge of the volunteers recep-
ton that the Lehi silver band and COM
mittee shall be sent to Salt Lake City
to meet the boys and that on their ar
rival home banquet be given them and
their friends after which there will be a
ball in the opera house.
The Black Hawk veterans held a meet
ing last evening in the public library and
have decided to join their comrades at
Provo this month. Money was raised to
buy each member a very handsome badge.

Mercur. Aug. 9.-Quite little breeze of
excitement has been caused on Marion
street, on the South Geyser ground. Very
few of the residents have deeds for their
property. Some of them got permission
to build, others did not. and the place is
thickiy built up. The ground belongs to
NJ Il. Osborn and the owner thinks it
high time he was realizing some hing.
Notices have been served on all the occu-
pants of the ground, demanding $50 for
derStoOd the lots VIII be offered for sale.
IL is probable that arrangements will be
brought 10 satisfactory conclusion with
out any lawsuits.
There are numerous criticisms of the ap-
pointments made by the governor in rela-
ton 10 the demonstration on the return
of the volunteers. 1t seems to be forgot
recruiting officers were getting one or two
volunteers per day. that twelve hours al
ter the of1cer reached Mercur he had
tnlrty-seven names on his list, and that
although later on there were so many
volunteers that the list from Aercur was
cut down 10 eight. During the war Mer-
eur had representatives in all three bat
terieS. in the cavalry. the rough riders
and the engineering branch, as well as
number who enlisted with the regulars. 1t
might also be stated that the Mercur band
was the first in the state TO offer its SER
vices to make the celebration a success,
and yet with all the committees named,
not a single Mercur man has been APP
pointed. with the exception OF f. ID. KIM
ball, whose home is in Salt Lake. or
course this will not cut any figure in the
way the residents here will receive the

There has been more rain in the camp

known for years at this season of the

STATE FAIR MATTERS.
Trip to Cache Valley In Interest of
Exhibits.

Exhibits
1t is the intention of Utah poultry
raisers to have big exhibit at the COM
ing state fair. Secretary Sears has re-
ceived notice to that effect. and As
sistant Secretary George Taysum is
pushing up the matter. The agricul-
tural college at Logan has taken up the
subject. and is now experimenting with
several breeds of chickens.
Yesterday Director White Palfreyman
and Assistant Devine were in consul
tation with Secretary Sears. and will
leave this morning for the Cache val
ley to boom the fair.
Director Palfreyman says there will
be a big stock exhibit this year, and
one that will exceed anything seen yet
in Utah. The exhibits from Utah and
Emery counties will be very fine, and
the display of Perchon horses from the
latter county will be something unusu-
ally good.
There is one prize that the associa-
ton wants. and that is for a mining
drilling contest. 1t would beyond doubt
be "a good thing for the mining inter-
ests of the state. and the only reason
the association has not offered a prize
is its lack of means. There are many
wealthy mining men in the state and
the association has hopes that a SPLEEN
did premium will yet be offered
