UTAH LION HERDED THE GOATS
Prospector Saw Unique Sight Near
Great Salt Lake

SALT LAKE CITY, May pa
mountain lion herding goats is the lat
est curiosity reported. A. T. Meador.
prospector from Southern Utah, brings
the story to Salt Lake City. He says
ne saw the lion and his herd of goats
one afternoon, but thought the brute
was a big dog. Later he found fresh
ly devoured kid.
Next day Meador ran across the
four-footed goatnerder and his flock.
He was driving them up a canyon.
Meador watched closely and became
convinced that the goats were we'll ac-
customed to their guardian. From day
to day the prospector ran across the
same sight, and finally came upon the
lion at close quarters, finding him a
huge brute
Meador AYERS that from what he
learned, he is positive that the noun
tain lion had kept the flock for long
time, and that ne was staying them
only as the occasion demanded. OF
course, he hasn't brought any proof of
his story, as he says he didn't want to
kill the lion; but. anyway, stranger
things than this have happened in the
state of Utah.

Rancher Kills His wife and
Five Children
WOUNDS THREE OTHER CHILDREN
Also Fatally Shoots His Hired Man.
Then Murderer Shoots Himself
Through Head.

SAN RAFAEL. Cal, May "a
Crazed by illness and business trou-
bles, David Stephens, rancher near
Kentfield, this morning shot and killed
his wife and five children, seriously
wounded three other children, two Of
John Summerfield a ranch hand. He
then killed himself. Summerfield is
not expected to recover.
Stephens had been showing signs Of
insanity for some time but gave no
indication of dementia that would re-
suit in todays horrible tragedy. He
arose shortly before 6 o'clock and
quietly securing a gun, started on his
bloody mission. His first victim was
his wife, the first shot killing her.
Frenzied by the sight of blood he ragged
through the house like a mad man.
shooting one after another Of his fear
crazed children. After firing a bullet
into the eighth child he ran down the
road where he encountered Summer
field. who had been attracted to the
house by the shots. Stephens fired
without stopping and Summerfield fell
to tnz ground. Running few yards
farther. Stephens stopped and placing
the revolver to his own head fired and
dropped dead.
A Revised Account.
Only five children in all were shot.
Three of them were killed and the
other two cannot recover. Summer
field was shot at twice but is unhurt.
The wife and children were in bed
when slaughtered, four being in bed
with the mother and the baby in a crib
beside the bed. The shot that killed
the mother aroused tine children, but
unmoved by their cries, the murderer
continued shooting placing the revolv-
er against the head of each of his lit
tie victims and firing. After the
fourth child had been shot, he turned
to the crib and lifted the baby out,
placed it on the floor and placing the
revolver into it's face, fired, tearing its
mead to pieces. Stephens was former
ly a book agent for San Francisco
house.
Stephens shot himself twice, once
in the breast and once in the head.
His children ranged in ages from IL
to one. The fact that Stephens had
shot his wife and children was not
known until some time after Stephens
body was found. A number of men on
their way to the depot picked up the
corpse and carried it into the house,
where they found a faith cure preach
er praying over the dead and dying.

Saloons, Ice Cream ParIors and Cigar
Stands Are Closed.


Stands Are Closed.
NORTH YAKIMA, Wash, May a.
For the first time in the history of the
town the saloons of North Yakima
were closed last Sunday. The city
MARSHAL was given orders late Satur-
day to notify them to shut up their
places of business over Sunday.
The order came from the city coun-
Gil which passed resolution last
March to the effect that if any saloons
or other places licensed violated the
state laws or city ordinances, their Ii
censes would be revoked. 1t was con-
sidered best to notify them before TAX
ing action.
The only places hereafter open on
Sundays will be the hotels, restau-
rants and drug stores. All ice cream
parlors and cigar stands will come un-
der the ban.

the waters which are largely lost
through evaporation, subdrainage and
seepage. 1t is also claimed that large
quantities of the water is being ex-
travagantly used and wasted through
irrigating bitches, taken out above the
dam, onto the lands of the defendants
and that none of this water after being
used is returned to the main channel
of the creek.
The plaintiffs cite that their lands
are set out to trees and gardens and
that through their inability to secure
sufficient water to irrigate with,
through the extravagant use of the
same by the defendants, that crops
are greatly damaged during the ma
turing season. The plaintiffs petition
and ask for the removal of the dam,
decreeing to the plaintiffs their due
and just proportion Of the waters of
Garrison creek and perpetually en-
joining the defendants using the dam
orr any other dam or from diverting
or wasting any OF the waters Of the
creek.
