IN this city, is counting the hours now
IN his cell in the penitentiary till his

This case is expected to be reached
within three days after the opening Of

After Shockley's conviction i'm the
district court his attorneys, Wilson *

claim Of errors in the trial court, and
the argument for a new trial will be

Shoekley. in his cell in the state

fident of securing a new hearing. He
reads great deal and seems thor
oughly sorry for his crime. He gives
little trouble to his guards, but, owing
TO the nature Of his Offense. he is kept
in solitary confinement with the eK-
ception of an hour and a half each day,
when he is permitted to take exercise
outside. Neither he nor his guards
permit themselves to think of shooting
or hanging: the idea seems to be fixed
IN their minds that something is GER
tain to intervene TO prevent an execu-
ton.
The crime for which Shockley stands
committed is one of the most sensa-
1ional murders of the city's history.
and the feeling against the murderer
IN the beginning was intense. The two
men, Brighton and Gleason, were on
their street car in the eastern part os
the city in the performance of their
duty when Shockley boarded the car
and attempted to hold them up. They
objected and in the struggle that fol-
lowed both were shot to death The
flight, the arrest, the confession and
the trial are all still fresh in the mem
ory of the people.

MORMON AND GENTLE H0STESSES
FOR UTAH AT The WORLDS FAIR

the following item, of interest to Utah
people. in a recent issue:
The Utah, building at the Worlds fair
now has two hostesses. Miss Inez
Thomas. a Mormon girl, and Miss Cora
VI. Snyder of Salt Lake City, who pro-
fesses the. Gentle religion. 1873.
The selection of a hostess from eaCn
religion was made by the Utah COM
missiOners for the reason that the Nor
mon and Gentle religions dominate ALI
other questions of the western state.
and it was believed that the people OF
both religions who visit the fair would
be better pleased If they should be
greeted by lady of their own sect
The position Of hostess was created
last week as a result of the decision of
the Utah commission to entertain dur.
ing the remainder of the fair more ex-
tensively than heretofore, and the
young ladies entered upon their duties
last Monday.
Miss Thomas has been at the Titan
building since the opening of the expo
sition as general supervisor of the
house. but has never assumed. the title
OF hostess, although acting in that ca
pacity since her arrival at the fair.
Miss Snyder was sent to the EXPOSE
ton last week by Governor Heber NJ.
Wells. and while here was appointed
one of the hostesses by Commissioner
General w. T. Whitaker at the sug-
gestion of Senator Willis Johnston one
of the two Mormon members of the
commission.
The selection of the two hostesses
when one would have sufHced it is
said is due to an unwritten law in
Utah which provides for the equal dl-
vision of all state offices and political
positions.
