Extractinu Perfumes

\ common method of extracting per-
fumes from flowers is enheuraged,
which consists in placing the blossoms
in contact with purified lard for Il few
days. When saturated with the per-
fune, the lard itself may he used, or
the essential oil may be extracted un.
der strong alcohol. The process be-
ing tedious, many attempts--mOstly
unsatisfactory-have been made to OBJ
tain the essential oil direct from the
flowers by means Of light petroleum.
4 curious recent discovery Is that per-
fume making still goes on in the flow
ers during enheurage, and DR.. Albert
Hesse reports that q ton of tube rose
blossoms only yielded sixty-six grams
Of oil by petroleum extraction, but
gave up SO1 grams to the imbedding
fat In entleurage, and yielded seventy
eight grams more when the faded
blossoms were distilled. The flowers
appear to have contained more per-
fume after exhaustion by enfeurage
then when first gathered.-Exchange.

SMOOT is DISCUSSED
1t Necessary, Members of the
Ministerial Alliance Will Go
to Washington.

AT yesterdays meeting of the Minis
terlal alliance the citizens protest against
the seating of Senator-elect Smoot was
the topic or conversation and discussion.
The ministers voted TO sustain the pro-
test and last night their action was wired
10 the senate at Washington
When the meeting was called TO order.
the chairman stated that the principal
matter of business was an action on the
protest signed by nineteen influential cit
liens of Utah and addressed to the proper
against the seating of Mr. Smoot The
question was asked whether or not the
aliiance as a body should endorse the
protest The matter was put 10 a vote
anFl it carried without a dissenting voice
After the vote on the protest had been
taken about two hours We're spent by the
alliance in general discussion of the
SmOOt matter WAYS and means Of rre-
venting the senator-eiect from eettino his
seat were thoroughly discussed. as was
the petition of certain citizens sent to
Washington favoring the seating OF the
Mormon apostle 1t was the expressed
opinion of the ministers that if il became.
necessary one of their number should
leave his duties here and 90 to Washing
ton and appear personally before the
committee of the senate and argue
against the seating of Mr. Smoot.
Several of the ministers volunteered to
undertake this work, but no definite ac-
time.
Ii was allowed to rest over a week in
order that the alliance might have a
chance TO see how the protest of the Gift
zens would be received by the 'i senate nate
committee. If there is any indica ton
that it is likely TO be offset bv the petit
ton in favor of the apostle ii is under
stood that minister. to be selected then
will leave Immediately for Washington
to take up the fight personally The
general opinion, however. was that the
petition IN favor of seating Mr.. Smoot
would not play much of part with the
senate committee.

AGED MAN DISAPPEARS.
Goes For a Walk and Has Not Since
Been Seen.

The family and friends of Fred
Smith, an aged and infirm man living
at % South Second East street, are
alarmed over his strange disappearance
from home yesterday afternoon. He
went out for a walk and since that time
nothing has been seen or heard of him.
Mr.. Smith. who is about 20 years of
age, has been confined to his bed for
about six weeks, suffering from rheu-
matism. Yesterday he was feeling bet
ter. and about l o'clock said to his
aged wife that he would go out for a
walk for about ten minutes An hour
or more passed and he failed to return
home. His wife became anxious about
him and notified Bishop Empey across
the street. The bishop went out on a
search for the missing man. but was
unable to get any trace Of him after he
left the house. Inquiry was made all
through the neighborhood, but no one
had seen the old man.
The police were called upon TO make
a search for the missing man, but their
efforts to locate him were unavailing.
1t is feared that he might have wan
dered further away from home than he
realized and been taken seriously sick,
so as TO be unable to tell where he
lived or anything about himself. Mem
bers of his family are considera bly,
alarmed for his safety, and are making
every effort to get some trace of him.

is NO POLICE COURT
Council Refuses to Revoke Two
Licenses Because Judge DiehI
Should Try the Cases.

The council last evening indirectly
served notice upon Chief Paul that here
after he must not bring his police court
cases before that body. 1t did so in re-
tusing TO revoke the licenses of Edward
Gregory, proprietor of the @. & G. saloon,
and l.. a. DOles and Louis S. Dickinson,
owners of the Green River saloon. who
had been cited to appear and show cause
why their licenses should not be revoked
on the charge of keeping their places
open on Sunday, Feb. s. The police were,
however. commended for their vigilance.
For about two hours last evening the
council chamber was turned into a regu-
lar police court. President Cottrell and
Councilman Thomas took turns acting the
part of Judge Diehl, and their demeanOT
while upo1 the temporary bench reflected
credit upon that worthy iurist
The seats used by spectators were well
filled with saloonmen. saloon employees
apd saloon devotees. who had been at
tracted to the chamber by the two cases.
To the right of the president chair. in
the space between the seats of the coun-
cilmen and the door leading into the
ante-room, sat four uniformed policemen
q la city court; the three defendants
their attorneys. witnesses and score OF
more additional interested spectators.
1t was a sight which grated upon the
dignity of the members of the council;
they realized the seriousness of the as
pect, and their remarks on the questions
showed only too plainly that Chief Paul
asked them to turn the sacred chamber
of the cOuncilmen into a police court
When the cases unoeT consideration
should have been heard by Judge Diehl.
For that reason, in conjunction with
others, the council upset a bucket OF
whitewash twice during the evening,
permitting it to run over the complaints
tiled against the three defendants. AT
the same time the chief was given to I'M
Gerstand that he should now take the
cases into the police court and secure a
conviction there If he had the evidence;
that If he did not have she evidence that
he made a mistake in apparently impOs-
ing upon the time and dignity of that
body.

fore Bar Association.

garding the alleged unprOfessionaI and
unlawful methods of soliciting business

report of the committee was received.
S-lberstein YVES notified of the action of
the association ana subsequently appeared
before the committee and admitted that
the charges made against him were true.
One of the charges is that Silberstein
caused an advertisement to be published
in newspapers. Divorces legally obtained
by successful lawyer. Consulta ton free.
Confidential" The other charge is that
he solicited a case TO recover damages.
The report of the committee was to the
effect tina: the conduct of Mr.. Silberstein
was unprofessional and that he violated
rules consistent with the proper standard
of professional ethics. 1t recommended
that the matter be brought TO the atten-
ton of the supreme court for action The

screaming and crying for help. With
rare presence of mind the big porter
grasped the situation and called to the
passengers that all danger was past and
something like order was soon restored.
Then came the scramble to get out. No
one could find their clothes. and the sit

was travelling with her husband began
ribbing him up for being so slow in a
fashion that so tickled Effinger that he
forgot whether he had any clothes or not.
