Gave Him a Whipping.


There was some excitement at the
Blue barn, Erwin & Osborne, propri-
etors. yesterday afternoon. 20 break
the Sunday stiffness,
Yesterday shortly after noon. w.
A. Gleason went to the Blue barn
and engaged horse and buggy. Late
in the afternoon he returned to the
barn, and, on taking charge of the
horse. Mr.. Erwin noticed that it had
large welts on different parts of its
body and was evidently suffering
from cruel treatment. Mr.. Erwin
called Gleason's attention to the con-
dition of the horse, and asked him
what he meant by mistreating the
animal.
Gleason made some reckless reply,
and Erwin told him what he thought
of him. After an exchange of hot
words. blows were passed and a fight
was soon on. Erwin knocked his
antagonist down and was dealing
with him pretty harshly when some
bystanders interfered. Gleason got
the worst of the fight from beginning
to end.
On investigation II was learned
that Gleason had driven the horse at
a terrific rate for long distance,
with two men beside himself in the
buggy; and, according to the report.
when the horse faltered, he beat it
numerically. The horse was GER
tainly in pitiful condition when it
was returned to the barn.
The case was reported to the HUI
name Society, and this morning Mrs.
Walter S. Sullivan, the local repre-
sentative of the society, swore out a
warrant against Gleason. charging
him with cruelty to animals.
Gleason was arraigned before an
officer and fined $40 and costs, which
he paid.
The defendant is a well known pa
per hanger and painter, formerly of
Salt Lake City. but for the past year

A man may treat an animal un-
mercifully in this city. but he usually
has to pay for such action and pay
dearly, as the officers of the Humane
Society are ever watchful. A man
who delights in mistreating dumb
brute richly deserves severe punish
ment. and it should be meted out in
a manner similar to the way the an
lmaI is treated. and this opinion Mr..
Erwin seems to hold.

Pretty Childern,s Day Exercises.

hi''AA thiih'iil = Ibhl iaNffflStN.
Children's day was celebrated at
three of the churches of the city yes
terday. Fitting and beautiful exer-
cises were held at the Congregations
al, Baptist and Methodist churches.
Instead of the regular service yes
terday morning at the Congregations
al church. the Childern's day pro-
gram was given. Thirty or forty
little folks took part in the exercises.
There were many pretty songs. drills
and many other interesting features.
The church was prettily decorated in
flowers for the gala occasion. The
congregation was an immense one
and everybody thoroughly enjoyed
the exercises.
Last evening at the Methodist
church over 500 people gathered to
enjoy the delightful program rem
dered by the little people of the Sun
day school The congregation was
one of the largest that has assembled
at the church in many months. The
main auditorium was filled to the
last seat. and but few seats were
vacant in the big Sunday school room
either downstairs or in the balconies.
There were large choruses of ju-
venile voices. recitations, drills, vo-
cal duets, piano solos, vocal solos
and violin duets, making up a pro-
gram that was interesting and enter
tanning from beginning to end. There
was a great profusion of pretty flow
ers to add to the beauty of the Chill
dren's day celebration. During the
evening Rev. Smith baptised six lit
tie children. a ceremony that was es-
pecially fitting to the occasion.
The pupils of the Baptist Sunday
school held their Children's day fes-
tiyities last evening at the church. A
congregation that filled the church
to overhowing was highly pleased
with the entertainment provided by
the young people. Much attention
and care had been given to the pro-
gram. and as a result every number
was charming. The efforts of the
little folks were most creditable and
the large congregation was most ap-
preciatiye. The floral decorations
we're extremely pretty.
Yesterday was truly Children's day
with the three churches deyoting a
service to the young people. More
than 1000 paid tribute to the chill
dren by attending the celebrations
and the exercises at the three church
es we're among the prettiest ever held
in the city.

PLATEAU VALLEY NEWS.
1.-THE Voice.l

The creeks of Plateau valley have
been higher the past few days than
for . years before; but, so far as we
can learn, no damage to private prop
erty has resulted. The bridge below
Jacksons was the first to go out. on
Plateau creek. this being followed by
both the bridge below and the one
above Dan Kenney's ranch. and that
on the Babcock place. The north
approach to the Atwell steel bridge
on the MesaDeBeque road has been
practically washed out and the bridge
is impassable Several smaller wood
en- bridge on the tributary creeks are
gone. 1t will cost the county a con
siderable sum to replace these bridg-
es, and while about 1t the piers for
all on Plateau creek ought to he
made of concrete. so that they can
be replaced with permanent steel
structures in a few years At Coll
bran, the creek partly cut out "A dam
east of Underhill's machine sheds.
and it took some fast work to get it
repaired; but at no time was there
any danger of the creek doing any
considerable damage.
The county commissioners and the
state engineer examined the sealed
bids for the contract to build the new
portion to the DeBeque road, on
Tuesday. and awarded the contract to
o. c. Pitts. He is to build the en-
tire road. about 3 miles in length. for
$1,000. The road is to be 10 feet
wide, and will have no heavy grades,
the heaviest being little more than
10 per cent. Mr.. pitts has the great
advantage of living close to this
work, and ought to be able to COM
plete the road for 5000 less than
some contractor living at a distance.
The job is to be finished within 100
days
