AN IDAHO GIRL
SAVED FROM RUIN

"Cupids Efforts Thwarted" or Cap
tain Burbidge TO the Rescue" might be
the title OF a little comedy-drama en-
acted at police headquarters this af-
ternoon.
The story most deeply concerns Fred
rick Tremayne, a pedler Of vegetables
who has been arrested numerous times
for vaerancy and drunkenness, and
Miss Katie smith, aged IS years, from
Idaho Falls. They were to have been
married today but for the Interference
Of an unfeellng policeoflieer. But now

but a wiser girl.
According to her story 10 Captain
Burbidge, she came TO Salt Lake about
O week ago. At the time OF her ar
ifyal she had $3.50 In cash with her.
Two or three days ago she met Ire
mayne and he lost no time in decar-
ing his love for her. He vowed he
would lead her 10 the Hymenal altar
and that they would olive happily ever
after" His love making was so ar
dent that the girl accepted him and
today was set for the contamination
Of the happy event. This mornne
they betook themselves 10 the Office OF
the county clerk and procured a
marriage license. Then Tremayne

out and acquired what the police
termed "a beautiful load" He tore op-

for the person to perform the ceremony.
The money was soon gone and Ire
mayne became so intoxicated he was
trying TO measure the sidewalks upside
down when Officer Burt arrested him.
The next scene showed the worthless
and dssipated Tremayne and Miss
smith In the chiefs Office at the police
seatlon. There the young woman told
her story. The man declared that his
Intentions were the very best and pro-
duced the marriage license to prove his
assertions. He said;
"oh. I'm going { marry 'er. why wish.

He told the officers that he left the
girls money at a saloon. Tremayne was

"thake" him at once. The fellows rec.
ord was laid before her and she finally
came 10 the conclusion that she had
had a narrow escape. When she left
the station she said she would have
nothing more TO do with Tremayne and
that she would return to Idaho Falls
Immediately.
Thus did a cruel policeman thwart
the Efforts OF Cupid.

murder Mrs. Charles y. Cooper by Fred
Roberto, alias Arthur Edwards OF salt

Cooper. who has been for several years
a clerk In a prominent clothing house.
secured a divorce from Mrs. Cooper Oh
the ground OF desertion. The man who
today shot Mrs. Cooper In the left side
OF the face and killed himself was
named IN the proceedings as a cores
pendent. The jury, however held Mrs.
Cooper to be innocent Of improper rela

from Salt Lake City, where Mrs, Cooper
had been living only few days ago.
This morning he asked Mrs. Cooper
10 go for a walk with him on the
streets. This she did He asked her to

while Roberts was passlonately In lave
with Mrs. Cooper there was no ground
for the accusation against her.
