While making a setting of equity
cases for trial this term Judge Hiles
yesterday gave the divorce actions on
the calendar the right Of way. Ac-
cOrdingly twenty divorce cases
We're set down for May q, when this
number of mismated couples may have
the opportunity to have thrown off the
calling yoke Of matrimony. In nearly
all Of these cases set Tor Monday, the
2lst inst, the defendants, mostly hus-
bands, are in default for failure to an
swer the wives complaints of deser-
ton, cruelty, failure to support, etc.

Effort to Start Boom For the
Mayor.
AN ANTI-WELLS MOVE
MAYOR DECLARES BE rs NOT a
CANDIDATE.
Talk Of a Combine Between Senator
Brown and Governor Wells-Pro-
hibitionists to Hold State Con-
vention-Chairman Lawrence APP
proves Towne's Nomination.

The statement that has been going
the rounds of the city for the past two
days to the effect that Mayor Taomp-
son would be a candidate for the Re-
publican nomination for governor is
not sanctioned by that gentleman him
self. Asked about it yesterday, his
honor said:
NO. I am not q candidate for any
Office"
You occupy the same attitude in this
matter that you did toward the
mayOralty, was suggested.
4 am not a candidate" was all the
mayor had to say on the subject. 1t is
well remembered that this is all that he
had TO say in the city campaign till he
was unanimously nominated for mayor.
There are influential Republicans in
this city trying to work up a guberna-
tOrial boom for the mayor, just the
same. The impression prevails that
these are enemies Of the governor, who
are determined to take advantage of
Mayor ThompsOn's popularity in this
and Summit counties to lay out Gov
ernor Wells. The plan seems to be to
tie UP Salt Lake and Summit TO the
mayor and try by all sorts of deals to
get enough outside votes to land their
man.
Dennis G. Eichnor, who is looked
upon as a sort of father confessor to
the mayor, is not in this scheme yet
and knew nothing about it yesterday.
There was much talk in political cir
cles about a combine between Brown
and the governor, and it was thought
by many that his would result in
throwing the Lannanites and the
Thompsonites together into a combina-
ton both offensive and defensive. They
naturally have a strong fellow feeling
for each other, anyhow, since Thurs
days convention.

A PROFESSIONAL WOMAN.
Experiments Made With Food.

Experiments Made With Food.
A certain professional woman in New
York, connected with one of the large
institutions there, has had a curious
experience with an experiment in using
2 certain kind OF food. Tt seems that in
October last, she had a serious illness
ana was at the point of death, the
brain and body in the last stages of ex-
haustiOn. Her remarkable experience
with the food was brought to the at
tentiOn Of the makers by some Of her
friends, and in reply TO letter, she
wrote as follows:
y have no objection to the public
knowing of the wonderful transforma-
ton my system has undergone by the
use of Grape-Nuts since November,
1899. I began using the food when con-
valescing and when in an exceedingly
low condition And used a small
quantity and became so fascinated
with the flavor that I gradually dis
continued nearly all other food, includ-
ing tea and coffee.
up to now I have consumed about
$50 packages and have gained 20
pounds in flesh. Am q marvel to all
my friends who are aware of my
former state OF health. There are
about fifty families who have adopted
the use Of Grape-Nuts because of my
experience. You can give my name and
home address, but do not mention nv
professional connection" Mrs. z. N.
Wood, S32 Amsterdam Ave, New York
City.
There is a reason. The makers of
Grape-Nuts select certain parts of the
grains of the field that contain delicate
particles of phosphate of potash and
albumen. These elements, when COM
bined in the human body, go directly
to rebuild TIE gray matter in the brain
and nerve centers of the body
This is a demonstrated fact and can
be proven By any one who cares to
make the test. When one nourishes
and builds up the brain and nerve
eenters, that is practically the keynote
to the whole health proposition, for
when the nervous system is in perfect
poise. al parts of the body respond.
Grape-Nuts are for sale at all the
large grocery stores in the country and
can be found ia use in practically all
Of the best families IN America.

GILES JURY is LOCKED UP
NO AGREEMENT HAD LATE LAST
NIGHT.
Trial Of Alleged Forger Was Con-
Guided Yesterday Afternoon-Ar-
guments Are Made.

The jury in the case OF the United
States against J. S. Giles having failed to
agree on a verdict by 10 o'clock last night
was locked up in a room at the Kenyon
for the night. The judge viii be in his
chambers at 9 o'clock this morning await
ing a report from the jury.
The case went to the jury at a quarter
to o'clock yesterday afternoon. Prose
cutting Attorney Whittemore's argument
laid stress on the fact that no entry of
cash received from Bishop had been made,
and that Giles had accounted for this on
the ground that the prosecuting witness
was unable to produce his papers showing
that he was citizen of the United States.
Bishop asked that a copy Of the regis
tered letter refusing TO accept the papers
and signed by Byron Groo the former
register of the United States land Office,
and which he claims was fictitious be sent
TO him. Bishops allegation that he went
to Fillmore on July Is, 1855 where Giles
gave him a receipt signed with the name,
George A. Smith, was also brought out
foreibly,
Attorney King is confident that the de-
cisiOn of the jury will be either an acquit-
tai OF there will be a disagreement. He
refuses to entertain the idea that his eli

ATTITUDE OF PoPUL1sTs.
State Chairman Lawrence Pleased
With Towne's Nomination.

Henry W. Lawrence, chairman Of the
Populist state committee, is highly
pleased with the outcome of the ma
tiOnal convention just held in Sioux
Falls. He was not prepared to say
however, what course the Populists Of
Utah would follow.
"Our delegates" he said, "were elect
ed TO the Sioux Falls convention. We
did not go but sent our proxies, so that
naturally we were most interested in
what was done there. Either platform
would suit me-" he said. Personally
Bryan suits me as a candidate much
better than Barker, but I cannot say
of course what our party here in Utah
will do. We viii wait and see what is
done at Kansas City before we take
action. We are working for principles,
not men, and if the fair thing is done
at Kansas City there will be no doubt
as TO what most of the Populists of
Utah will do. OF course there is very
strong opposition to fusion and some of
our people are joining the Socialist
Labor party"
