TO CLEAN THEM OUT.
Chief Sheets and Atty, DAILY Propose
To Close Dance Halls.

An effort is about to be made to close
certain Salt Lake dancing halls that
for some time have been considered a
menace TO good morals and as danger
GUS to the safety Of young girls who
are wont TO attend the same. \ con-
ference was held yesterday between
Chief OF Police Sheets, Captain Bur
bdge, Assistant city Attorney Daily
and others, at which meeting plans
were devised whereby the said nus-
ances could best be done away with.
Finally complaint was drawn up
under an ordinance. which, II Is be-
lieved, fully covers the matter In ques-
ton and doubtless arrests will follow.
The section mentioned is 42l of the
revised ordinances, and reads as fol-
lows
42l.-Dance House Prohibted--It shall
be unlawful for any person to keep or
maintain, or assist in keeping or main
tanning a dance-house where lewd or
disorderly persons assemble together
for d. ing"
The y authorities do not think that
IL VII. be a very difficult matter to
prove that many OF the persons who
attend some of the dancing pavilions in
the city are Of the class described in
the ordinance. This refers more par
ticularly to male frequenters, and It
will be the aim Of the officers who have
started In to clear out dsreputable
dance houses to show up the records
of some OF these men in such a way as
to effectually accomplish the much de-
sired result.

A NIGHT OF HORROR,

But no trains would run toward San
Francisco, so j spent the night IN san
Jose. 1t was a night of horror. Many
OF the residences were still safe. but
the people feared another shock, and
sat UP to await II. People were PILED
all over the front lawns and sidewalks.
Some had tents; hundreds lay in the
parks beneath the trees The power
was off. the town In darkness, The
inner town was deserted and heavily
guarded. In San Jose only IL had been
killed by the shock, and six more
burned to death. but at Agnew, five
miles away. the insane asylum was
wrecked. one hundred and ten bodies
have already been dug out, and many
are still buried. Many escaped luna
tics are running at large. One was
shot down last night for trying TO force
the lines.
My friends at the Hawthorn farm
are safe. The house stood the shock
well, but dishes are broken and plaster
Jared loose. At the lower end OF their
farm the earth opened In a great
yawnlng gap a foot wide. The man
was In Frisco at the time. He es-
capped from the wreck In his hotel and
dressed on Market street Then he
led on foot, and provldentially met
his wife, who had gone up from the
farm to search for him.
The 20 Mormon" Elders who were
IN Frisco are all safe.
Bad as was the destruction OF San
Jose, Il is nothing To compare with

and Is still beyond control. The wa
ter supply was cut of. For a while
they pumped the sewer to fight the
fire, but II was useless. That first aw-
full night In San Jose we could see the
glow of the burning city 30 miles
away, and all night we heard the
rumblng thunder sound OF dynamite
when they were blasting out the build
ings TO check the fire. Toward morn
ing 1t stopped because the supply Of
dynamite gave OUT.

THE PUZZuIM CASE
 OF HIGH SCHOOL BOY
His Misfortunes Date From an Injury Received in Football Game a Year Ago.

A young man by the name of John Jordan is a puzzle for his relatives and for the authorities. He is about seventeen years of age and a high school boy where is has held a good record His uncle Ira Beck, near town, with whom he has been living. says he has been a good boy. He is hand some looking and healthy young man.
 About a year he was one of the lead ing members of the high school foot ball team and in a game with the In- dian school team he was hurt in col lision. From that time there was d noticeable change in his disposition. Though he did not become immoral he appeared to be growing immoral his sense of responsibility became gradual ly less. Soon after that he joined the Delta Sigma society of the high school and that did not improve his morals to a noticeable extent.
 Several months ago he forged his uncle's name to several checks for small sums and when the attention of MT. Beck was called to them he went to the Phoenix National bank where his account is kept and took care of the checks. Manager McClung of the bank called the boy and talked to him about it. The young man said it would be all right as he intended to make the amount of his forgeries good; his uncle would not be allowed to lose any thing. Mir. McClung told him that was not the point: his uncle was not worrying about the loss of the money but about the future of his nephew:
