Utah District Court Decides Peculiar
Case of "SealinR.-

A dispatch from Salt Lake, Utah yester-
day says: Judge Hall of the district court
today rendered his decision in the cele-
brated Hilton-Park case, the court holding
that the ceremony of sealing" performed
In 1878, was purely a religious ceremony
affecting the lives of Mrs. Hilton and DR.
Park only in the hereafter, and was not
marriage ceremony known to or recognized
by the laws of Utah. Mrs. Hilton, claim
ing by this ceremony to be a widow of Dr.
Park, had sued for part of the estate.
1t is Mormon Church doctrine that a
woman dying out of the marriage state
will not ocuupy so high place in heaven
as woman who has been married. In
1872 Miss Armitage, afterward Mrs. Hill
ton, was believed to be dying and in order
to add to her happiness in the hereafter
DR.. John r. Park. a friend of some years
standing, was called to the apparently dy-
ing woman's bedside and the ceremony of
sealing for eternity was pronounced
over them by President Wells II was
stated in the certificate issued by President
Wells that Miss Armitage was supposed to
be on her death bed
The court holds. therefore. that las the
ceremony was performed only to provide
Tor the woman's spiritual welfare in the
next world, Miss Armitage and Dr. Park
were never man and wife.

the private rooms and the slot machines
do the most harm up here, for they are
patronized by young people. There are
nineteen regular walters employed, and be-

Sunday business
Fakes and Flights
Down near the merry -go-reund there is a
tent where performance is held every
little while Just before the entertain
ment commences, however, a young man
mounts an elevated platform and tells of
the wonders you may see for the small
price of a dime. He dwe1Is upon the fuzzy
wuzzy' dance, and the appearance of two
females by his side suggests the midway.
He urges the people who attend the per-
formance to come outside If they are not
him to the crowd. He advises them not
to resort to the box office unless they care
to tear it down and take the money found
therein. The entertainment is harmless
enough. Two negroes furnish the orches-
ira with mandolin and guitar, while
dances in her "own peculiar style" man
in the audience remarked after he had seen
it that there was little wonder there had
been trouble in Asia recently and he
guessed it was not over yet.
Last Sunday was a particularly quiet one
on the bridge there being but three fights
About 4:3O a fight was started in the bar
and a attacked two others with a
chair and then fled across the bridge with
bowling mob at his heels. He escaped by
jumping down the embankment. 1t was
after IL o'clock before the slot machines
ceased to operate. Business had been espe-
cially active in the barroom, for the drench-
ing rain outside was an incentive to drench
inside, and the barroom was packed almost
to suffocation as soon as the storm broke.
