singing by the quartette composed of
the four we'll known young singers of
Salt Lake stirred Up great enthusiasm

seemed to have brought his dinner and

HOTEL SUED
Rv a Boarder to Recover Value of
Lost JeweIry andMohey.

Vincent Verdi, a transient boarder
at the iSwager hotel, brought suit
against proprietor, j. 7. Swager, to
recover the value of stolen or lost
goods to the amount of s22o.o5. He
claimed the goods, consisting of jewelry
and money, had been taken from his
trunk in his room. The suit came up
Monday for trial, but Mr.. Verdi was
sick and in the hospital so his attor-
neys decided to have the suit dis
missed without prejudice
The law of this state concerning
hotels is very plain and strict, but
only slightly different from the laws
of other states. A hotel keeper is re-
ouired touse due diligence in having
honest servants and in protecting the
person and property of bis guests. He
can not be held responsible for wear
ing apparel, baggage and other prop
erty exceeding $3.50 in value, except as
to jewelry, money and other valu-
ables. Inthat instance the law requires
him to post in all the rooms, office and
reception room notices Of the fact that
"jewelry, money and other valuables
of like nature must be deposited in the
Office of such hotel, etc. The disre-
gard of this requirement makes him
liable for losses. 1t is said most of our
hotels fail to observe this law made
for their own projections well as that
of guests.

Got Picked UD,

The Atlanta Journal of Wednesday
makes the startling announcement
under double deck horsehead of
scare lines that Dr. 1. NJ. Hair, Of
| Union, S. c., was arrested in Atlanta
for trying to pass bogus check at
the Neal Loan and Banking Co. DR..
Hair was released, and the Journal
sneers at the police for turning him
loose. The police exhibited moro
sense than the Journal. We don't
believe that DR.. Hair had suspicion
that the check was fraud when he
presented it to the bank. He is not
man Of that calibre.
We would have credited the Doctor,
with his knowledge of Atlanta, with
being too shrewd and wike-awake to
be picked up by one of Atlanta S
sharks.

A Fine Record.

In conversation with Treasurer 7,
II Bartles, he said that he had broken
the record in this county, that the
records show that he has marked paid
on his tax duplicate the names of
every person who paid their taxes
and had the assessments been made
and called for in the right way there
would not have gone out an cxecu
tion against single person who held
receipt. Says it is something that
has never occurred before in the his.
tory OF the county. He says all he
asks is that the people make their
returns and call for them in the
proper way and e will guarantee
that there will be no exc :utions t.
bother those who have paid.
