Kinds of Trouble.

A middle-aged farmer from a north
ern settlement, whose name is said to
be Potter, had experiences in Salt Lake
yesterday and the night previous that
he is not likely to forget, his wife, who
is much the better half, being at the
bottom of it all. In q violent temper,
superindueed by whisky, she went after
her husband with a pistol. and though
she did not get within shooting range
of him, sae succeeded in making her
spouse the most frightened Individual
in TIE citz
Early Wednesday afternoon Mr.. and
Mrs. Potter came into town to do some
shopping, and lodging their team al a
livery stable, proceeded to buy goods
Mrs. Potter had the money of the fam
lily, and after taking drink or two at
the family entrance" she became
somewhat obdurate Towards evening
the wife went to supper, and subSe-
Quently got a room for herself, but lett
hubby entirely out of the question.
When he went to her for means, she
called him a good for nothing" 'lazy
lout." and said the money was all hers,
that she had earned it with her own
hands, and she proposed to Keep 1t.
Potter was forced to go TO the livery
stable and borrow enough money to
get some supper and a bed. Yesterday
morning he went to the stable, and
there met his wife, who demanded that
he hitch up the team and so home. Not
having concluded the business that
brought him here, he refused, and or
dered the man in charge not to give her
the rig under any circumstances. This
but added fuel to the flames, and the
irate wife stOrmed around, making a
scene at the barn for the period of fif-
teen minutes.
Sought Police Protection.
It was then that both parties sought
police protection, ana proceeding to
headquarte-s, unbUrGened their woes
to Deok Sergeant Livingstone The lat
ter advised them to settle their differ
enCes amiCably. as bes1 they could, and
the PCtters proceeded down the street.
The wife, after making another futile
demand upon her husband for the team,
left him in a rage, and after drinking

She was cot on his trail when inter-

phoned to the police that his life was
in danger; that his wife had a pistol.
and he was afraid TO go out on the
street.

Mrs. Potter and persuaded her to make
things up with her husband, which she
did, and they left for home last even

Z. D. Shaw. the old-time theatrical
man, came into town last night ard
adjourned to the Kenyon. Shaw, on
his present trip, is travelling in the ca
pacity of business manager for the
Frederick Warde company which plays
in Salt Lake for the last two nights Of
next week. He said last night: 4
don't know how to account for it, but
since Mr.. Warde left Louis James, our
receipts have jumped up 40 per cent,
but then we flatter ourselves that we
have the best company ObtainabIe, con-

Already the wool-buyers are out in
Idaho, hunting for contracts for the
coming season." said T. J. Nipper Of
Boise at the Cullen last night. "Of
course, the agents are looking for the
lowest prices they can get the sheepmen
to sign for, but I understand that al
ready a number of contracts have been
closed on 20 cents per pound basis,
while IS cents is of common occurrence.
When it is taken into consideration
that an average sheep shears eight
pounds to the fleece, it can be seen
that the wool clip on a flock of sheep
at s1.6O per head brings in handsome
returns TO the owners. Idaho is rapidly
coming to the front, what with ner
sheep, mining and fruit industries,
which are developing into important
factors in the general wealth of the
state. This fine open weatlrr which we
are at present enjoying gladdens the
hearts Of the stockmen, al Though the
problem Of next summers water is o.
ginning to trouble US somewhat"

When 1t comes to the price Of butter,
Elgin, H., governs the market in the
United States" said A w. Hudson of
that city at the Cullen last night.
Every Monday the ruling prices are
teiegraphed to the leading cities of
America and Canada, while London
gets our quotations by cable Although
Elgin is not such a very big place-we
have population Of about 21,000-it is
a hUstling town, with its two big
creameries and a couple Of condensed
milk factories. I would not like TO
place an estimate upon the number OF
pounds of butter and cheese that are
shipped every day cut Of our town.
Barrels Of EIgin-made butter are to be
found in the markets across the Allan
tic. In my estimation, there is not
finer dairy country to be encountered
IN the world than the Fox River valley,
from where we get our supplies. Not
only does Elgin get her milk from that
section, but there are big cTeameries at
Carpenterville and BelvedeTe, which
turn out lots of goods. The farmers III
that district have come to the cOnclu-
sion that a cross between HOlsteins
and purh9ms Is the best kind of stock
to produce milk, consequently they are
raised to the practical exclusion of the
Jerseys. Then, too, We have the big
watch factory, which employs some
1000 odd hands and has a worldwide
reputation. Taken altogether, EIgin a.
one of the busiest towns going for lis
size" Hudson is on his way back home

W. g. Rattray OF Chicago, is among
the latest arrivals at the Kenyon. Mr.
Rattray commenced life as a reporter
on the staff of the old Denver Repub-
lican. Today he talks watches and the
latest thing in charms and trinkets
He said yesterday: Il don't care where
you take them, the average American
watch is the best timepiece in the
world today This has been proved
beyond the possibility of any chal-
lenge. I have tested watches against
the famous English chronOmeters and
found them not to vary more than four
seconds in a couple of mOnShs-and
what would be called cheap watches at
that In jeWelTy, the American designs
meet with universal favor the world
over and If is a well known fact in
far off Russia that the annual fair held
at Mil NOyOgorod, the American jew
elry, which is put on sale by American
representatives who go there every
year, outsells all competitors. While
the ParisianS turn out some fetching
designs America is rapidly forging
ahead and passing the French ieweleT."
THE new SIS, 600 court house at Too
ele IS being rapidly occupied by the
Will hold session there next month,
said j. c. De Lamar Of TOoele at the
White House last night. The new
creamery also is rapidly nearing com
},letion and workmen are now actively
engaged IN putting in the machinery
prior to its starting up next month,
which will be another source of income
for the TOoele farmers. The electric
light plant. however, is still hanging
FIRE The proposition has been under
way for nearly a couple OF years and
now, when It seemed as though it would
be contaminated at an early date, the
usual squabbles over the proposed site
for the plant have come to the front
At present the situation is that there
are four proposed sites and neither
party Will withdraw in favor of the
other"
