THRU OPEN WINDOW
The Man, Who Stood in the Dark
Room, Behind the Door, Seized the
Young Woman, Who Screamed for
Help, But Her AssaiIant Made His
Escape-Not Reported to Police.

While in the act of entering her bed
room Tuesday night about 10: ID
O'clock, to go to bed, Miss Daisy Mat
thews. 412 South Third street, was
seized in the darkness by an unknown
man, who had in some manner entered
the house Once she got away from
her assaiiant, who seized her again.
She then screamed for help, and the
man, rushing part way down the stairs,
leaped thru an open window, and made
his escape.
The mans purpose in the house can
only be- guessed, as nothing was found
to have been taken 1t is presumed he
entered the building by climbing a
tree near the rear Of the house and
from it getting on the kitchen roof,
from which window opened into Miss
Matthews room.
Two boys Of the family had already
gone upstairs to bed before Miss Mat
thews followed them. When at the
threshold Of her door, she struck a
match, which went out, but in the
momentary CLEAN she saw the door,
which was open, move. She struck an
other match, which, she is now conf
dent, was blown out by the man from
behind the door. He then seized her
and forced her against the door cas-
ing. She released herself, only to be
seized again and pushed against the
railing which guarded the stairs. She
then screamed and her assailant made
off down the stairs, and out the win
dow before the other members of the
family, who were below, could catch
sight Of him. In going out the window
the man jumped to the ground, dis
lance of nine or ten feet.
Miss Matthews, in the dim light, saw
only enough of the man to be able TO
give limited description. She says he
was of ordinary size, wore straw hat,
and white cloth or tennis shoes. The
assault was not reported to the po-
lice.
Miss Matthews believes the man fol-
lowed her to the house earlier in the
evening, and the family afterwards re-
membered hearing sounds upstairs,
which was thought was made by one
Of the boys moving in their sleep.
Miss Matthews is the stepdaughter
of Mr.. Ed Scott

CLARK ISN'T sANeUINE.
Chairman Of Water Committee Dis.
cusses the Dam Question.

Chairman A. NJ Clark, Of the water
committee of the city council. doesn't
entirely agree with the deductions
drawn by others relative to the main
tenance of the present adequate supply
of water in the city wells. Mr.. Clark
saws that while he hopes it will not be
necessary for the city to expend a
large sum of money in constructing
a new dam across the Iowa river for
the purpose Of conserving a larger sup
ply of water in the gravel beds, he
fears this will have to be done at some
time in the future. In his opinion the
present season will not result in a fair
test of the effects of the loss of the
old dam, as he claims the flow of wa
ter in the river has been greater than
usual at this season of the year, be-
cause of heavy rains north He is of
the opinion that several successive dry
seasons would cause shortage in the
CITY wells and demonstrate the necessi-
~ of maintaining a dam.

Methodist Evangelist Receives
Large Sum For Being Hurt
in Railroad Wreck
BROUGHT SUIT FOR $4,000
Rev. Buein, Who is Well Known Here
on Account of tho Long Series Of
Meetings He Held at the Methodist
Church, Receives Small Fortune for
Being Injured.

AS result of an accident and SUBJ
seuuent suit for damages against the
Salt Lake and San Pedro railroad, on
which he was hurt Rev. E. j. Bulgin,
a Methodist preacher who is well
known here, will receive $4,000. Rev.
Bulgin was hurt while travelling in
the west year ago last winter Rev.
Bulgin, held long series of meetings
here in the Methodist church, and soon
after left for California, where he is
now living at Long Beach
OF his receiving the $4,000 from the
railroad the Long Beach Press publish
ed the following:
About three months ago, while a
passenger on Salt Lake train, DR..
Bulgin was badly, if not permanently
injured in a collision. He brought
suit against the railway company for
$4,000. The case was tried about
thirty days ago in the superior court,
and a verdict for $4,000 was returned
for the plaintiff The defendant COM
pany undertook to combat the case by
introducing in evidence the ticket upon
which Dr. Bulgin was riding, known
as a minister's special, and on the
back of which was contract, duly
signed by Bulgin, waving all rights to
damages in case of injury. The court
and jury evidently didn't accept this as
complete waiver, and awarded a
verdict for the plaintiff.
''The Salt Lake gave notice of ap-
peal and filed bond. The attorneys for
the railroad. however, have apparently,
had a change of heart, and this morn
ing notified DR.. Bulgin to call at the
company's office in Los Angeles and
that he would be paid $4,000, the award
of the jury.
Or. Bulgin naturally is we'll pleased
with the outcome of his suit. He
states, however, that he will never
again ride on ministerial ticket If
compelled to sign the usual contract.
He says that he couldn't do 1t con-
scientously, as he believes that man
has no right to sign away protection
to his family in case of accident.

err yet lent myself to a scheme to en-
rich myself at the expense of the un-
fortunate, and it is very hard for me
to close my ears to the cry of the
dumb brutes or the beaten child, or to
shut my eyes to the downward path

and boys walking the streets of our
beautiful little city at unreasonable

INTEREST IN CONVENTION.
Groups About the Streets Discuss Sit
uation in State Politics.

uatIOn IN state foIItICS.
The extent to which state politlcs'
the probable action of the convention
at Des Moines and what that conveh-
ton ought to do are being discussed
on the streets, reminds one of pres
idential campaign. Some of these dis
cussions are quite heated where sew
eral good takers of divergent opinions
get together. Among many of the con-
sentative local standpatters. however
there has been change of sentiment
to the extent Of conceding that there
ought to be square deal and that the
Perkins cause has been injured by the
tactics of Hunter and others in bring
ing contests in counties where there IS
little or no basis for them.
Numbers of local political workers
who have been in the habit of attend
ing state conventions as spectators re-
manned away from Des Moines this
year, because they deemed it good poll
icy and good politics to avoid mixing IN
the bitter fight.

Guardian of Insane Woman Seeks to
Have Deed Set Aside.

Fired Hoes, as the guardian OF En-
lily Hoes, who is of unsound mind, has
commenced action in the district court
to secure the setting aside of deed to
eighty acres of land situated in
Greencastle township, it being alleged
that the conveyance was secured thru
fraud. Gertrude Johnson is named as
defendant in the petition. The plain
tiff alleges that Emily Hoes was de-
ceived into signing the deed by being
led to believe that the document was a
will. Upon this showing it is sought
to have the title to the property fixed
in Mrs. Hoes and possession given
over to the plaintiff as guardian.

EIGHTEENTH YEAR.


There seems to have been some
misunderstanding as to dipping
lambs. The following letter will
explain matters:
According to the provisions Of
the Circular Letter from the Chief
of Bureau dated April IL, 1906,
sheep infected with scab,es must
be dipped under the supervision
OF an employe of tins Bureau Tor
a State Inspector when previously
agreed UPON before being allowed
interstate shipment.
When dipped un.officially, they
must be dipped twice and held 80
days after second dipping before
they can be inspected for inter.
state shipment.
The only alternative will be to
dip them twice again under such
supervision.
Dipping under supervision of
Mr.. Olin Purdue will be recognized
by inspectors of this Bureau, pro-
vided Mr.. Purdue certifies to such
dipping.
Very respectfully.
