AFTER FIFTY YEARS.
Two Old Railroad Construction En-
eineers Meet Here Tomorrow.

After a lapse Of so years when two
Young civil engineers shook hands and
said goodbye, two old veterans Will
meet In Salt Lake and give an account
of their adventures and otherwise
talk over the development Of railroad
ing during the half century in which
they have been separated. Fifty years
ago u. j. Whittemore and Edmund
Wilkes started out as young engineers
together and were great chums, Maj
Wilkes came west to be identified with
a number OF railroad projects, which
he surveyed. Mr. Whittemore. also
kept plugging away at his chosen pro-
fession with the result that today the
old veteran IS chief engineer for the
Chicago Milwaukee & St. Paul. Some
time ago he wrote Claude Williams. the
local commercial agent Of the big sys-
TEN and stated that he heard that Maj
Wilkes was still alive and residing In
Salt Lake and for Williams to try and
find him As the result Mr. Whlttemore
has written that ne will be In Salt
Lake tomorrow on his way home from
the coast, and that he viii stop over in
order to talk over old times. The
meeting OF the veterans will un-
dOubtedly prove interesting.

Probably the most unique testimony
ever offered In courtroom, was that
by Mrs. Emma Houghman of South
Omaha
Charles Epstein claimed ownership Of
a Jersey COW Mrs. Houghman had
him arrested and brought replevln pro-
ceedings simultaneously. When the case
was called for trial Mrs, Houghman
asked that the COW be brought into
court Judge King permitted IT, und
Mrs. Houghman called the COW by a
pet name Immediately the Jersey
walked over to her and kissed her By
rubbing her muzzle against Mrs.
1oughman's face.
Three times this act was repeated,
and Mrs. Houghman was declared the
owner. Boston Record,
