MARSHAL HUNTER SET FREE
OBJECT LESSON AS TO DRUNKEN
ORGIES IN FUTURE.
Especial to The Heraldl

CCOFIELD. Utah. Oct. 1.-THE pre-
> liminary hearing of Marshal
Hunter and his three deputies, who
were complained against for the kill
ing of Antony Bartnick on Sunday
last. was concluded before Magistrate
Burgess at a late hour Saturday night.
The testimony developed that a row
had been in progress for several hours
at Bartnick's during the day and nu-
merous neighbors had complained of
the boisterous conduct OF the party
assembled there. Marshal Hunter, when
making an effort 20 arrest the parties,
was resisted. and upon his return with
a deputy he and his deputy were forced
out of the house by the assembled
Slavs and the gun of Hunter Wrenched
from his hands.
Prepared For Trouble.
After this Mr.. Hunter gathered a
posse of seven or eight men and warned
them of the threats OF the party, and
each went prepared for trouble. Ad
mittance TO the house was denied the
officers and they were informed that
If they forced an entrance they would
be killed. An entrance was made
through the rear and a number of the
deputies went to different rooms in
search of the men for whom they had
warrants of arrest. Deputy Thomas
Nalley was the only one coming in
contact with Bartnick. and after taking
two shots at Nalley with his revolver
Bartnick commenced TO beat Nalley
over the head, and while so engaged
a member Of the posse, who was
watching proceedings through a win
dow, fired a shot into the house to
scare Bartnick OFF. The shot had &c
effect and Mr.. Daniels went TO the
rear and, gaining entrance, command
ed Bartnick to stop beating Nalley.
Bartniek then turned upon Daniels,
when Daniels fired into Bartnick's side,
the wound causing death.
Officers Discharged.
Justice Burgess. after an exhaustive
examination of all the witnesses.
found that the officers were justified
and ordered their discharge. The de-
I cision of the justice is commended by
the general public and ii is thought
that the unfortunate occurrence OF
Sunday night viii operate as a lesson
] to numerous class here. who have
/ shown little respect for officers of the
law in the past.
Several months ago. while attempt
ing 10 arrest some boisterous men
Marshal Hunter was badly beaten NJ
| and his former experience doubtless
had much TO do with his policy in the
organization of a sufficient posse il
the Bartnick matter Mr.. Hunter is
a very efficient officer and an old and
respected citizen of ScOheld. Much
sympathy IS felt here for Thomas Nal
ley, the unfortunate deputy who was
so badly wounded by the hammering
given him by Bartnick that his re
covery is reported to be exceedingly
doubtful.

How Far tho Blood Travels in Your Veins
in u Short Lifetime.

Speaking OF interesting calculations
with reference to the functions Of the
human system" said the young man
with penchant for mathematical
cuciosities, did you ever stop to think
how far ones blood win run in life
time at the velocity agreed upon by the
scientists2 The authorities have
reached the conclusion that the heart
at each beat Of contraction discharges
about two ounces OF blood. 1t is esti-
mated that there are about nine pints
Of blood in the normal frame, and spec
Ulatvely, for scientists cannot be GER
tain about it, the conclusion has been
reached that il the larger arteries the
velocity Of the blood is about twelve
inches, or one foot in q second of time.
New this will give us a basis to figure
on. ana since the basis is speculative
the. conclusion must be after the same
kind Yet they viii all be appro-i'
mately correct.
"If the blood flows in the larger ar
tories at the rate of twelve inches 4
second, in q minutes time it will hav,
dcwcd 720 inches, which equal to sixty
feet In an hour the blood will have

inches. Pct il q different way this
would be about sixteen miles, 3JSG feet
and eight inches. In months time,
allowing thirty days FOR month, the
blood will course q total cf C1,1C4,0C0
inches, and in twelve months, or one
year. 373, 3,aS4, ,0C0 inches. Suppose lives
to be thirty-fve years old. We end
that a mans blood in this period Of
time, on the basis assumed. would
cover a total distance Of 13,0736S0, coo
inches. Now, how far is this? Twelve
inches make one foot and $3.50 feet
make one mile, so 1908, ,GS0,000 inches
is equal to about 2O6,339 miles, 3413
feet and four inches.
"If man should happen to live to
be 100 years old the distance covered
by the blood would be nearly million
miles. We rarely stop to think of those
things and yet life depends largely
upon the marvellous little engine which
must drive the blood Of ones body this
enormous distance. If we thought
more along these lines we would do
less to cripple the functions Of the
heart than we are wont to do. The
fact is, that we are constantly doing
things which cannot in any way aid
the hearC in the performance of its
functions, and in most instances we
do those things which are a downright
injury. But the little throbber keeps
on just the same until we wear it out,
and then 1t stops, and we pass"

Tho Coyote as n goracer.

When 4 coyote goes off on q foTaging
raid by himself, and is so lucky as to
catch an unsuspectiag sheep or a calf
out for a moonlight stroll, he win first
suck the blood Of his victim, and then,
dragging the carcass to a shady and
unfrequentcd retreat, will devour the
choice morscls lrst. Before he has
finished his neal he will gorge
many pounds Of the most substantial
parts, until he resembles a sack Of coal
on four spindling legs. A coyote has
been known to eat his weight in meat
in a day and q night. Not a particle
Of the coyotes feast is ever allowed to
go to waste, for when he is stuffed he
will snatch hold of the remnants of
the carcass by his mouth, and, throw.
ing the flesh across his back, will start
for the family abode, where the rest
Of the family may eat also. Hunters
tell of having found coyotes so gorged
and heavy with food that their dis
tended sides made it impossible for
them to enter their burrows and holes.
Jack rabbits are the principal food Of
coyotes, and both animals are provided
with muscles Of locomotion that are

Some Singular Thefts.

For some time past several milk
sellers in the Latin Quarter of Paris
have complained Of thefts of their
tins, and the mystery was solved the
other day when a young man, well
dressed, was seen in the early hours
of the morning carrying a big tin of
milk on his shoulder. When qucs.
toned, he dropped his burden and
fed, but was captured, and was found
to be a Greek student, George Sac.
chini by name, whose parents made
him an allowance of 700 francs a
month. He stated that an irresistible
force compelled him to steal the milk,
and ON searching his rooms in the
Boulevard st. German a dozen large
milk tins and about thirty smaller

Yankee Like.

Clerk Newton of the Parker House
is telling a good story at his own ex'
pense.
When a small boy on the farm his
folks often sent him TO the neighbors
to buy a dozen eggs when their hens
failed to lay enough.
He noticed that the old farmer al
ways held each egg before a lighted
candle and examined 1t carefully. In
his innocence Of Yankee shrewdness
Newton supposed that this was
prompted more by honesty and in
tention to detect whether the eggs
were bGd or not
One day, however, when he counted
hlS eggs, according to custom, there
We're only eleven in the basket.
With a determination not to be
cheated the lad trudged proudly back
to the house and quickly made known
his discovery.

all right, my boy; one Of them has a
