DID NOT NEED THE ENG|N
DRUNKEN MAN GAVE TRAIN
MEN A FRIGHT.
Fell From Garfield Train, But Was
Walking Into Town When a
Special Was Sent After Him.

Samuel Wright, young man from
Taylorsville, fell from the Garfield
Beach train last night at Buena Vista,
point about three miles from the city.
Fortunately the train was a heavy one,
and was only running about fifteen
miles an hour when the accident oc-
CURED. Wright, who was intoxicated,
was fooling along the steps which run
along the sides of the open cars, with
two or three companions, who were in a
similar condition, and while walking
along he reached for one of the iron
handles and took hold of a curtain.
The result was that he fell backwards
into space. His badly frightened COM
panions hurried forward to the bag
gage car, where they found Conductor
Joe Cahoon, who had charge of the
train, and informed him of the acct
dent. By this time the train was at
Jordan river, and it continued on to the
station, arriving here at $40. A spe-
cial engine, having on board Wright's
friends and one or two others. was sent
out Immediately in search of Wright
expecting to find him badly injured
but when they got out about three
miles they met the young man footing
it along the ties at lively rate to-
wards the city. When they saw him
the engine was stopped, but before
they got chance to ask him if he was
hurt he broke out with: What in HIS
the matter? What in - are
you coming out here for?" 1t turned
out that the young man was not in
jured at all by his fall. His friends in
duced him to get on the engine, and
he was brought into the city and sent
on his way happier, if not a drupker
man.

are George @. FranSden of Price and John
James of Scofield. Each of the latter put

So and il looked for a time as though it
would be turned down. There was sui

very warm words passed between MEM
bers of the board and the clerk. The
board thought that Howard as county
clerk was in duty bound to act as sec

long to explain that they were barking up
the wrong stump. He cited them 10 the
fact that two of the three members had
openly admitted their incompetency to fill
the duties of secretary, and if they
thought he was at their beck and call they
were very much mistaken in their man.
After more or less talk and the waste

LECTURES FOR UNDERTAKES
UTAH EMBALMERS MUST PASS
AN EXAMINATION.
State Board of Health Notifies Them
to Attend Course of Lectures
Must Secure Certificates.

DR.. 7. u. Beatty, secretary of the
state board of health. has addressed
circular letter to undertakers through
out the state, in which he notifies them
that a course of lectures on embalmlng
and kindred subjects viii be delivered
during August, after which an eXami-
nation will ne held by the board and
licenses withheld from all those VINO
fail to pass The examination, DR..
Beatty stated. would be a very rigid
one, and in future applicants will be
required to pass before their licenses
are issued.
Two years ago the American Public
Health association passed certain rules
regarding the duties of expert embalm-
ers. and these were sent to all state
boards of health. In various other
states the plan of examining those who
intended going into the business has
already been tried. A course of lectures
is delivered by instructors on emhalm-
ing. disinfection. antiseptics, anatomy
and bacteriology. and the candidates
examined.
This plan will be followed by the
Utah state board. and an entirely new
SET of rules governing the licensing of
ennbalrners and the preparation or
bodies FOR transportation issued.
In this way il is hoped much of the
danger of spreading contagious dis
eases may be overcome.
