ARE IN DISPUTE
State Land Board Will Contest
Ownership of 24O
Acres.
DISCOVERY OF COAL
CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE
Question as to When Discovery
Was Made Basis of
Contest.

A. contest of considerable Importance
and which promises to be a closely
contested affair will be commenced In g
few days before the local United States
Land office. The property in dispute
is said to be valuable coal lands, and is
located IN Emery county. 1t consists
of six forty-acre tracts, situated In
section 16. township 18, south OF range
z east. This property was filed upon
before the United States Land Office in
February least as coal land by Gideon
Snyder and Carles o. Ellingwood OF
Salt Lake
The right OF these entrymen to the
ground In dispute VIII be resisted by
the State Board of Land commission
ers, for the reason that. being In sec
ton Is. II belongs rightfully TO the
State. At the trial the State Will be
represented by Attorney-General NJ. A.
Breeden. Two OF the important wilt
nesses for the State will be George M.
Miller. member OF the lower house OF
the State Legislature from Emery
county. and c. f. Koffard OF Spring
City.
These witnesses arrived in Salt Lake
Thursday. after having examined The

was known TO contain coal at the time
OF the passage OF the ena bling act. II
it can be shown that the existence OF
coal there was not known at that time

II evidence can be procured TO provo
that prior to that time coal was known

INDUSTRIAL SCHOOL
FUNDS ARE SHORT
Directors Call on State for $20,-
900 to Meet the EX-
penSeS.

The appropriation for tho mainte-
Ogden has been found to be insufficient
to meet the needs OF the institution for
the remainder of the year. 1t is
thought that the shortage will amount
TO about 10000
With view to having some action
taken to overcome the difficulty the
board Of directors of the school met
with the State Board of Examiners In
tho office of the Secretary OF State on
Thursday and laid the situation before
that board. Those representing the d.
rectors OF the school were Mayor z. NJ,
Conroy and T. 3. Evans of ogden; H.
S. Joseph OF Salt Lake; Superintendent
H. H. Thomas and Secretary g. r. Hol-
lingsworth of ogden,
The reason given for the shortage is
that the school has greatly increased
number OF inmates and that additional
money Is needed to complete the re-
creation hall that is now building No
action was taken IN the matter Thurs
day. but the Board of Examiners re-
Quested that detailed report or the
funds needed be prepared and submit
tod.
Gov. Cutler, when asked as to the
probable action that would be taken
In the matter, stated that the board
would not take any action until a re-
port was submitted and that then the
Attorney-General would probably be
called upon for an opinion as TO tho
best way TO provide for the deficiency
In a manner that would be entirely

Chutes Were Crowded.
The chutes were crowded during the
whole afternoon. The roller skating.
the boating tho miniature railway, the
dancing hall and refreshment parlors
were taxed to their capacity during
the afternoon and evening. In the
early evening the athletic events were
all held on the patch under the trees,
The events included races of all dis
tances for all sorts of people, and the
prizes which were given to the win
ners of the events were hotly contest
ed for. Hundreds OF Eagles swarmed
along the course and urged their ia
vorites on. AT dusk two punches OF
the birds went out In the ball park
and buckled down for a tug-of-war.
This was also watched by a large
crowd, and the two sides put up q fine
exhibition of strenuous pulling.
During the afternoon and until just
before the last train pulled out for
the city In the night, a voting contest
for the homellest Eagle on the grounds
was held. This proved a splendid
chance for the fellows TO work off a
little grudge on some one OF tho
brotherhood by giving him large
number OF votes The list of popular
ugly men numbered twelve, and the
battle for the suit Of clothes which
was given to the winner waged strong
and close during the whole contest
In the latter part of the evening a
largo part of the crowd took TO
dancing. but good many were con-
tent with the less strenuous act Of

A WORD IN SEASON
Don't Rush on TO Europe; "Sce

Don't Rush OF to Europe; "Sce
America First"
"A recent pamphlet. entitled See
America First. says the Baltimore
Times OF June II. makes a forcible
appeal to Americans who are disposed
to make q break for Europe as soon
as business and financial considera-
tions permit. without having first seen
the wondrous and charming sights OF
this continent"
After quoting from the pamphlet the
tainly needs fairly thorough knowl-
edge Of the natural features and cities
of his own country as a background
for the novel impressions the Old
World may convey Let It be granted
that Europe has much to offer in the
way OF architecture, paintings, sculp-
ture. antiquities, etc, to which a new
country cannot pretend, yet It is but
reasonable to find out, before under
taking the discomforts OF European
travel. what America has to show to
persons to whom works of art and an
tiquities do not particularly appeal.
Not infrequently we hear people who
have made the grand tour say with
much feeling: America Is the place
for me; Europe is not in 1t with the
United States" Such persons have
paid from $500 to $1,000 for this knowl
edge-a rather expensive disillusion-
ment They would evidently have done
better to have spent half as much WIS.,

land, Texas or Colorado.
There may be special reasons for
going abroad but the patriotic Amer
lean prefers TO spend his ducats at

KNOWS NOW
Doctor Was Fooled by His Own Case
For Time

For q Time.
It's easy TO understand how ordinary
people get fooled by coffee when doc
tors themselves sometimes forget the
facts.
A physician speaks of his own ex-
perience:
Il had used coffee for years and real
ly did not exactly believe II was iniur
ing me although I had palpitation Of
the heart every day
Finally one day a severe and almost
fatal attack Of heart trouble frightened
me and 1 gave UP both tea and coffee
using Postum instead and since that
time have had absolutely no heart
palpitation except on one OF two occa-
sions when tried small quantity Of
coffee which caused severe Irritation
and proved to me I must let 1t alone.
When we began using Postum It
seemed weak-that was because we did
not mako 1t according to directions
but now we put little bit of butter in
the pot when boiling and allow the
Postum to boil full 16 minutes which
gives 1t the proper rich favor and the
deep brown color.
II have advised a great many Of nv
friends and patients to leave off coffee
and drink Postum. in fact daily give
this advice" Name given by Postum

Many thousands OF physicians use
Postum In place of tea and coffee in
their own homes and prescribe It to
patients. There's d reason"
