HOW MORMONS WERE
.FLEECED OF $4,000

to another and eventually landed them
behind the bars.
Another member of the famous gang
went to Denver and was later followed
by his partner in crime. Once again
Sharp located his men and brought
about their arrest. Eventually all
were arrested by the deputy, who start
ed out when the case was placed In
his hands to make a clean sweep.
Los Angeles officials who have be-
come acquainted with the Salt Lake
officers methods, vouch for the state
ment that whenever Sharp goes after
his man he gets him, either dead or
alive, and in Northern Utah no minion
of the. law is more feared than this
same man Sharp.
Passengers Went Hungry
In speaking of the experiences of
passengers who were unfortunate
enough to be aboard the passenger
trains side tracked near Caliente,
New, last week, Deputy Sharp said:
"I will never forget this trip If
live to be a hundred years old. 1t
is bad enough to have to wait forty
eight hours for the conductor to yell
all aboard when there is plenty to
eat and something to do to pass away
the time. but when you are compelled
to go hungry while looking out of the
car window upon a never-changing pic
ture of sage brush and grease weed,
knowing that the delay may be pro-
Ionged an hour. or a week, things be-
come desperate. -
"At one time there was absolutely
no chance to secure food for ten hours.
A cracker and a sardine would have
been welcomed by men who are accus-
toned to thick steaks and mushroom
sauce. Even hardtack would not have
gone begging, and when at last we did
secure food perhaps it wasn't relished
and deyoured as though eaten by saw
ages.
Took UP Collection
1--WE took up a collection for a num-
Der of women and children who were
without means and without food, and
secured a handful of silver pieces for
them. This act was appreciated, of
course, but even a handful of silver
dollars doesn't last long in a dining
car.
"At last, when things began to get
desperate. the dining car conductors
offered to furnish meals to those who
couldn't pay for them, but as the
fact was strictly emphasized that no
one would be thus cared for If able
to pay the bill of fare rate, few took
advantage of the roads generosity.
Tips. by the way, were not showered
upon the walters.
81 suppose the track is repaired by
this time, but before l start for home
am going to make inquiries and then
prepare for another such experience
by loading. my grip with eatables."

nave heard an umpire nor good play
or object to the foul-strike rule 1t is
one of the great reforms in baseball
that accomplished what it was in

mated much kicking, shortened the

the sport and cannot be unfair when
Il works alike toward every team I
know batters who used to practice
every day fouling off pitched balls.
Any major league player who could
not foul off a ball ought to quit play
ing. Suppose an umpire without the
foul-strike rule should give these ex-
perts at fouling off full latitude? What
would become of the game?"

Notes for Women
What She ouoht to Know

The great thing in a woman, says a
writer in an English magazine, that
she should be teachable, open-minded,
absorbent of knowledge, so that she
may thoroughly know inside and out
the art of living, so that when she looks
through a house she can take the hang
OF its situation, sum up it's aspects, its
lighting and ventilating and drainage
systems: that she should, If her lines be
laid in the country, either for all or part
of the year. have the right values for
space and broadsweeping effects, and
a mind to what is decorative, so that
she may despise what is doddering and
expressionless. This important business
of living is absolutely left out of the
training of most girls. ...., 81

To Weave silk Portieres ~
Cut the strips half an inch wide, and

of the sewing machine, made a close,

To Grow Plants

Many persons ask If they can grow as
fine plants as the florists, to which one
always replies: Yes, finer" The
average florist does not attempt extra
fine plants, unless he intends to compete
in an exhibition. There are few persons
who buy flowers who could afford to
pay the price a florist would have to
charge for the same kind of plants that
the expert amateur grows, as they
would cost him too much to get them
to the market. The finest specimens of
such flowers as have been taken UP by
the amateurs, the sweet pea, dahlia,
gladioh, aster, iris and the numpheas
cannot be seen at the florists. The way
to get them is to specialize on one
flower study it thoroughly, and apply
your knowledge with enthusiasm. The
florist will envy you and your fine
blooms.

American Merit Counts

Tt would appear from comparisons
that have just been made in regard to
the highest salaries paid German bank
presidents, and corresponding stipends
mond, that in Uncle San1's domain more
partially is shown for merit than in
the regions watched over,by the Kaiser.
Napoleon Lajoie receives $2500 a year

Willie Keeler, the famous New York

phenomenal swimmer who broke sew

every American record. has given rise

coIIeqians and Baseball

With the beginning of the ball season
there is general movement among
managers to secure the best young

and university aggregations; the past
few seasons having proved the fact
that many of the best players in the

of the fast amateurs and placed on the
