Sheriff Taylor of Grand county Tor kill
ing Billy Charley sixty miles below

inquiry into the case by Sheriff Preece
of Uintak county and County Attorney
Corbin Of Grand county brings out the
fact that Reeder had previously had
some trouble with Billy Charley and
when they met away from civilization
the trouble was renewed. the two drew
their six shooters and each snapped
his gun at the other without either 60

Tor by the fact that the weapons car
ried only blank cartridges. After each

HOW MUCH WILL IT COST
TO CALL A WOMAN A 'FAT SLOB?'

Does the word slob constitute an Of
Tense against the laws of the state Of
Utah or is it merely sin against tie
English language?
Misses Susan and Lizzie Atkinson,
who live at 733 West South Temple
street, appeared before Judge Dtehi
yesterday, charged with calling Mrs. j.
w. Bush and Mrs. James Vincent far
worse things than slobs.
From the evidence introduced By the
defense il appears that the sisters
jointly and connectively spoke in loud
measures of Mrs. Vincent as a fat
slob." The complaint charges them
with using sianderous. profane, abusive
and indecent language towards Mrs
Bush and Vincent and the court, after
hearing the evidence stated that it
would take until next Wednesday to
decide whether the word ''slob" consti-
tuted an Offense againct the laws of
Utah.
From the testimony it appears that
Mrs. Bush and Mrs. Vincent. who live
on Pollard court, were cutting the
heads of weeds which pushed them
selves through the fence on the dividing
line between the Bush Vincent and the
Atkinson estates.
Miss Susan Atkinson says that they
were throwing the weeds over into the
Atkinson premises. She said she went

vance on the eastern side in the region
of Bentziaputze has been checked This
movement still appears to be an out
post affair, not accompanied with seri-
Gus fighting. no advance Of the Jap
anese force having occurred up TO the
date mentioned. The operations TO the
west of Afukden have extended twenty
six miles down the Hun river, where
the japanese were temporarily driven
out from Tschantan and seven supply
boats were burned. II is possible that
this raid is identical with that re-
ported by the Associated Press from
Mukden. although il the latter il IS
stated to have occurred on the Lao
