Honesty

Is very good policy to follow, no matter what business you are conduct ing. Take, for instance, if man is go- ing to wrestle another man and he rups yaseline or something of it's nature all over his body so that the other fellow cannot get a hold on him, that lsn square and 99 times out of lOO ne IS caught; then the laugh is on nm. Again, you'll see large public contracts let to the highest bidder. but they are usually nipped in time and, of course, again the laugh is in order. Then again you'll see business men selling second or third class tea. coffee or but ter for fancy prices; they, too, some times get tripped up. But why should you buy poor tea at 50 cents per pound, bad tasting coffee at 23 or g cents per pound, tainted butter or oleo at 24 cents per pound. when you can get the warranted good kind at the same prices in our store? (Of course we bar oleo. All we ask of you is that yon give us trial and see if our say so is not OUT do so.

MINUS HIS NEW ovERcoAT.
Fellow Boarder Made Off With John
 Fl Crowley's Clothes.


 John H. Crowley, pressman at the Democrat office, is the possessor ol a suit of clothes which he bought ana paid for twice. This may appear strange, but it is true, all the same. MT Crowley boards at the Arlington and yesterday q fellow boarder walk ed away with his new suit of clothes, an oyercoat, an Elks card and button and a few other things. Detective Cahey and MT Crowley located the suit of clothes in second hand store on Bank street where they had been pawned by soldier, the proprietor said. Rather than have any trouble about getting back the clothes, MT Crowley paid what was due on them. S3. making the second time he had to put up for them. Suspicion points to a man named J. F. Turner. .Jr, mem Der of the hospital corps at Fort Wads- worth. N Y., who had been stopping at the Arlington for the past few days and left town yesterday afternoon and was seen ill Bridgeport last night. No trace of the oyercoat has been found. It is said that Turner did not have it on when he was seen in the Park city, When Turner came to Water not known whether he belonged to that society or not If he be the man who made off with MT Crowley's prop erty, he is in possession of two Elks cards, the one he had when he came to town and Mir Crowley's, also an Eiks button.

ITO the rear of the shanty is small

The boy is said to be crack shot with

air gun. He is as sure OF aim with either
as the huntsman is with the most mod

Illinois Lad Shoots Birds and Gopharg

sleeping on a bed of straw at night VIII
lie Benthusen. aged IS. has lived aloof
from civilization and entirely without
means since the death of his mother
Mary Bentfusen at Elgin Ills. three
years ago. The boys condition was dis
covered by the American Home Finding
association, l6I Dearborn street, through
It's agent, Mrs. n. NJ. Stiles. who came
upon the boy while he was eating a raw
fish
Despite the hardships he has suffered
reports to the society say that he enjoys
perfect health.
Benthusen's means for securing subsist-
ence consist of an air gun a sling and a
bent pin attached to a fishing line. With
these he obtained sufficient food to supply
his daily wants. He EXCHANGED fish and
birds to rural travellers for cast-off cloth
ing.
Mrs Stiles watched the youth after dis
covering him eating raw fish and soon
found that he ate birds raw, after picking
the feathers from them and devOured
gophers with the relish of one partaking
Of the most toothsome food. She endeav-
ored 20 get young Bethusen to 90 home
with her. telling him that she would give
him cooked food to eat, but he declared
that he was perfectly eontented with his
mode of life.
She then reported the case to the Home

The rain eometh down, and the snow from

thought first spoken by Isaiah, must have come into
the MIND of many q Salt Laker yesterday in form
or another. Yesterdays snow has something
thar merely aesthetic value. The physical discom-

very best as Falkner. Mr.. Amory' 5
Freddie is in a little different vein
than the public has associated him
with. but quite as excellent as any
thing he does and certainly a worthy
example of his versatility. Miss Van
Buren, as Lady Jessica was admirable.
The minor characters were generally
well sustained.
The Royal italian band played out
its French night before another sur
prisingly small crowd, but Colonel FL
lery, with admirable courage, an
nounces two more nights of %e grand
music at the tabernacle, Friday and
Saturday, besides a Saturday matinee,
all at popular prices. It is his opinion
that the weather has ruined the bands
business and he firmly adheres to the
belief that in two more nights all that
was lost can be made up, ans more.
There will be an entire change of
programme for tomorrow and Satur-
day nights and the matinee. The pub
lie should turn out en- masse TO show
its appreciation of Creatore and his
wonderful aggregation.

George Wilson, the favorite premier of
