AGAINST CIGARETTES.
Telling Address of Willis Brown az L
d, S. University This Morning,

Mr. Willis Brown, who is travelling
under the direction of the American
Anti-Cigarette League delivered a
telling address before the students Of
the Latter-day Saints university this
morning. In introducing the speaker.
President Paul stated that Mr. Brown
has been travelling for the past seven
years, i'm the work OF saving young men
from the foul and despicable habit of
cigarette smoking-a habit which in
the opinion of competent judges, Is
even worse than the habit of using
opium. Mr.. Brown was in his happiest
mood, and frequently elected enthu-
siastic applause by his appropriate H.
Illustrations while the humorous Incl
dents which he related brought forth
peals of laughter from the audience.
The business mems view of the cigar
cite smoker was first presented The
speaker referred TO the recent action
of the great railroad companies in pub
fishing their announcements that
hereafter they will employ no cigarette
smokers This action is sweeping and
significant, including the shops as well
as the offices. and should be strong
reminder to any youth that II IL his
best interest to leave tobacco alone.
From the standpoint OF health the
speaker showed how much more disas-
trOus It IA TO the human system for a
boy to take into his lungs the five poi
sonous Vapors Of the cigarette smoke
than It is to smoke a pipe or cigar OF
strong tobacco that cannot be inhaled.
Lastly, the speaker showed the effects
of cigarette smoking upon the moral
character Of many Of It's victims, and
asked the boys how they would enjoy
being classed with the cigarette fiends
the moral degenerates who M
the jails. Mr. Brown commented
effectively on the attitude OF
the law toward cigarette
smoking, A cigarette smoker is a law
breaker 1t may not be long before
II will be a violation of law even TO
handle cigarettes or TO deal I'm them.
The address was a forcible one and the
speakers argument produced a sem
sation, This was especially the case
in that part Of Il which demonstrated
what the girls can do towards eradl-
eating the evil

TWO ACCIDENTS
ON STREET CARS.
Representative Peterson of Piute
County Jumped Of Backwards
And Was Badly Hurt.
WOMAN LEAPS WITH BABES.
Mrs. G, NJ Graham of Murray
Thought Passenger Was Going
To Kill Her.

There were two street car accidents
last night and this morning due to pas
sengers jumping off their cars while
the latter were in motion.
Representative Peterson Of Circleville
Piute county, fell from Second South
street car at 1l45 last night, and the
results may be serious According to
all accounts, the unfortunate gentle
man. totally unaccustomed to street
car travel, failed to realize that getting
off a car backwards, while the car was
in motion, is a dangerous method OF
procedure. In the face Of warming
from the conductor, w. Chugg, not to
get down onto the platform, but to wait
untll the car had stopped in the middle
Of the block where the car would have
stopped. OF course, he fell and struck
his head on the rail, lie was quickly
picked up, and taken into the Salt Lake
House, 1874 south Second West street,
by the car men, and Or, Richards, the
railway company's surgeon, was quick
~ summoned. The doctor found that
Mr., Peterson had sustained very Sc
we're shock, but not actual concussion
OF the brain, as was subsequently re-
ported. The sufferer stated he alone
was to blame for the accident, and laid
no blame on the street car men, At
last accounts he was doing as well as
could be well expected,
WOMAN CREATES SCENE.
What might have been a very SER
ious accident, but which fortunately
resulted In severe shakeup, occurred
a fem minutes after u o'clock today
near the Godbe-Pitts drug store. A
Mrs. q. NJ, Graham, who lives at Muir
ray was riding with her two little
children In the State street car, and
while the car was In motion she sud-
denly seized the youngest child, a lit
tie girl under one arm, and taking
boy Of five or six years by the hand,
she jumped from the car. She fell hard
upon The pavement, and the children,
too, were thrown violently TO the
ground. A crowd quickly gathered,
and the woman who by this time had
regained her feet became badly
frightened and started to run Then
she remembered her children and went
wildly In search of them. The I'M
happy mother was taken into the office
OF Dr. Benedict where she received at
tention. 1t was ascertained that she
had suffered no serious injury, but was
in highly hysterical state Of mind and
talked almost incoherently. She said
that she had dreamed Of q man who
WAS going to kill her and just before
her mad leap, she believed she saw in
the person of passenger who had just
boarded the ear the very subject Of her
dream. and believing that her death
was imminent she was led to attempt
an escape
The unfortunate woman was kindly
cared for at the Doctors office, and
when she became more calm was taken
to the home of relatives, Strange TO
say, neither Of the little ones was in
jured in the least
