Artful Artie Thomas and his bunch
Of incompetents and misfts at the post
Office have been caught in the act Of
sending a letter addressed to the New
York Hotel, City, to New York city,
The hotel in question is directly across
Market street In Zion from the post

The clerk there directed it to the

intelligent bunch sent it to New York

being able to read and not too lazy to
exercise their gift in that direction,
promptly forwarded it to Salt Lake

the New York hotel, which is directly
across the street from the postoflice, the
local postal clerks quietly put it in the

and Charles Brown, will have TO pay
Judgment OF $3.50 secured against them
in the District court by George u. Lyon
for false arrest, according to a decision
handed down by the Supreme Court yes
terday. They took an appeal from the
decision of the District court, but the
Supreme Court in an opinion written by
Justice Frlck, dismisses the appeal On the
ground that the attorneys for the de-
PENDANTS did not comply with the ruye of
the Supreme Court by filing a written as
signment of errors alleged TO have been
committed by the lower court. District
Judge c. w Morse sat with the Supreme
Court in the hearing of the case in place
OF Justice D. n. Straup, who was dis
qualified by reason OF having been an at
torney In the case.
Lyon, whose home Is In Sanpete coun-
ty, was arrested by Mauss, upon war
rant being sworn out by Brown. on
charge OF obtaining money under false
pretenses. Afterward the prosecution OF
the case was dropped, and Lyon then

.LAVERY DISMISSED
BY DISTRICT JUDGE
Alleged Prosecuting Witnesses
Fail to Appear Against
Accused.
DISTRICT ATTORNEY
MAKES THE MOTION
Man Vilified by Mormon Press
Practically INDICATED in
Court.

j. T. Lavery, former business agent
for the local union Of Bridge and Struc-
tural Iron Workers, who was accused
of embezzling 5000 belonging to that
organization was discharged in Judge
Armstrong s department of the District
court, Wednesday, upon motion of Dis
trict Attorney Fred G.. Loofbourow.
Mr.. Loofbourow stated to the court
that he was unable to secure the attend
ance of the witnesses necessary TO con
vice Mr. Lavery, and that, although
subpoenas had been issued for them,
they could not be located. The tran
slent nature of their calling was the
reason assigned by Mr.. Loofbourow for
the inability Of the SheriA,'s deputies
TO locate them.
During the recent campaign an effort
was made by the local Mormon and
Jack Mormon press to make political
issue of Mr.. Lavery, because, while un-
der Indictment. he sat as delegate IN
the American county convention and
participated in its deliberations. He
was then accused of being a felon, who
had been exalted to leadership by the
Americans; but the case against him
hattened out entirely yesterday, and he
walked out Of court without any charge
or stigma attaching to him.

CHANCE A DfAGNATE
Owns a Tenth of the Chicago National
League Club Stock.

Dayton O., Sept. Manager Frank
Chance is now one of the magnates of
the National league. He is the owner
of one-tenth Of the club of which he
is such a valuable member and the
stock which he is the owner of in the
Chicago National league club was
given him because of his efforts this
season to land a pennant for his club.
Not since the days of Arson has the
manager of the Chicago Nationals been
a stakeholder in the club. Chance,
like Arson, is the only man who has
landed a pennant for Chicago-or prac-
tically landed one. The big leader of
the Cubs is the youngest manager in
the National league and next Sunday
Will celebrate his twenty-ninth BIRTH
day, the first time he has ever been in
Chicago on that occasion, as every
other year he has been away from
home on that date. A coincidence is
that Chance is % years old on the 9Th
day of September and is, just rounding
out his ninth year as a member of the
Chicago team.
ssIf I only had that pennant in my
pocket now said the big manager,
just before leaving Cincinnati for
home, 81 would feel that I could take
a day off and celebrate my birthday In
an appropriate manner. Until we
have that safely tucked away, however,
don't feel that can afford even a
single day of fun"
