STRANDED IN
A BIG CITY
CHEYENNE WOMAN AND FIVE
CHILDREN PENNILESS AND
DESERTED IN SALT LAKE.
Husband Left Her to Search for Work
in Los Angeles, and When She
Reached That City She Could Not
Find Him-Sent Back to Salt Lake
by Los Angeles Officials.

In a strange city, without funds, with
,dren under her care, is the pitiful
plight of Mrs. Melchoir Emily Miller,
late of Cheyenne, Wyo, who arrived
here from Los Angeles early Sunday
morning, say the Salt Lake Tribune.
Application has been made to the coun-
ty commissioners for assistance, but
they have refused on the ground that
they had previously sent the woman
and her family to Los Angeles.
Could Not Find Husband.
Mrs. Miller and her husband first
came here from Cheyenne about three
weeks ago. Mr.. Miller went on west
in search of work, with Los Angeles as
his objective point. The woman and
her children were destitute and the
n.missioners furnished her transpor-
tation to California. When she arriv-
ed there she was unable to find her
husband.
Walked Streets All Night.
Mrs. Miller, with her little family,
walked the streets of the California
city two days and nights, searching for
her husband, before she made an ap-
peal for aid. She says that without
making any thorough investigation of
the case. the authorities there asked
her from what city she had come, and
being answered salt Lake." they fur
nished her a ticket and told her to go
back. Being inexperienced and half
idazed by her misfortune, she did SO
and now finds that her husband is in
Los Angeles but without funds to as,
,sist her.
Funds Are Exhausted.
Mrs. Miller has, since her arrival in
the city, been staying at 375 West
South Temple street, paying for her &C
lcommodations with a small sum o
money that was given her by the pas
sengers on the train, but this Is nov
exhausted.

System Of Espionage.

By the foregoing statement as to
the cost of finch laterals (Which I be-
lieve to be more thar liberaD it ought
to be plain to the property owners on
such streets as it may be necessary to
with laterals, that it would be
more economical for the owners of
abutting property to pay the first cost
o fsuch street laterals and have free wa
ter, than to have the annoyance of a
city espionage system nj the cost of
additional officers to watch bathrooms
and closets, grass plats and trees, to
determine with minute exactness just
what E. C.'s or e. is water tax
should be.
In all the residence part of town the
cry would oon go up in favor of a met

Matter of Economy.

The cost of a 4-inch lateral, such as
the city council proposes, should not
be to exceed $50 for a 66-foot lot, in
Gliding its proportion of the cost of
laying across one street, and including
the cost of tapping the lateral and "a
rying the water to The street line.
How much more economical it would
be, in the long run, for the owners of
lots or such streets or parts of streets
as have not a sufficient water supply,
to jointly pay the first cost of the lat
eral past their respective lots and
thereby acquire a right to the use of
water from the city springs, free from
a tax such as may suit the whims of
city councils in the years to come.
The Size of the LateraIs.
l believe it is not e~xtravagant to say
that the present 3-inch laterals, if ex,
tended TO the extreme limits of the
.built-up parts of the several streets on
which such laterals have been laid,
would amply supply all the houses,
store-houses and hotels opposite such
.3-inch laterals, which now supply more
than seven-eighths of the homes in
Laramie.
1t would be grossly unjust for the
one householder in eight who is not
supplied with water on his premises to
aid the imposition of an additional debt
burden and a household water tax on
seven-eighths of the property owners
who have been to the expense of laying
.three-inch laterals that they might
thereby acquire a water right to a Ger,
tain part of the water from the city
springs, that was to be forever free
to the citizens of Albany county
What the legal status of our water
rights as individuals will be after a
surrender of the same to the city,
which as a corporation has at the best
a contested right to the water from the
city springs, I leave to the judgment OF
lawyers.

A Question of Interest.

This meterquestion is one that seems
to be discreetly kept in the back
ground, as is the rate of interest that
the council anticipates paying on the
|$SO,O00 water bonds. No one capable
of financing the affairs of the City Of
Laramie believes for a moment that
the $4,000 of water bonds can be float
ed at A per cent so long as the city is
in default on over $40, 900 in bonds that
now draw G per cent per annum.
1t may be true that a certain portion
of the said 6 per cent bonds is Illegal.

SERMON BY HARTFORD PASTOR.
BY Rev. Mr., Breckinredge at Plymout
Church Yesterday.

BY Rev. Mr., Breekinredge at Plymouth
Church Yesterday.
Rev. w. H. Breckenridge, pastor of
the Presbyterian church, Hartford,
preached at Plymouth Congregational
church, this city, yesterday forenoon,
exchanging pulpits with Rev. DR., Nc
Lane. Mr.. Breckenridge closely held
the attention of the congregation and
his discourse was interesting and edify-
ing, His text was verses % and "a of
Ephesians, and the subject was Put
ting on the New Man" In the course
of his sermon, speaking Of the Chris
tian's effort for a higher and more
spiritual life, he instanced by way Of IL
lustration the case of a convert who
wrote down a list Of his besetting sins
and then bent himself through the
year following to looping off these sins.
Much better, the speaker counselled, 1t
was to fill the mind and heart with In
spring, uplifting thoughts of duty to
God and man. Much better IL was to
endeavor to live the true kind, helpful
life, to work for the happiness of 9th
ers, to do good as opportunity offered;
in every way to try to live good lives
and fill the heart with whatever is
pure, wholesome and of good report
Look at nature in the spring time. You
have all observed how, despite winds
and storms, some dead leaves will lin.
ger on the trees throughout the winter
But let the breath of spring come ant
the fullness of new life come to tht
trees and we see the dead leaves droI
off and the new verdure come in all it'
beauty The past is dead and the new
life has come.
Rev. Mr. Breckenridge conducted thu
vesper services also at Plymouth
church last evening.

ed all the members of the company for
their help and congratulated them on
the success of the undertaking.
A pretty feature Of the close of the

simile of the Grays' company pin. A
box containing a pin was given to each
lady.
1t was a happy ending of most sue

ing out of the window of her home,
Mrs. Theodore Hartshorn, Of 519 First
avenue, West Haven, was found dead
by a gardener employed about the place
Saturday afternoon. Medical Examiner

years old and for some time past had
suffered from attacks of the heart
On Saturday afternoon, just a few mo-
ments previous to the finding of her
body, she had been out in the garden
directing the laying out of some
plants. Becoming fatigued she entered
the house to rest. Shortly after the
gardener, wishing some further instruc-
ton, entered and saw her apparently
gazing out of the window. Receiving
no answer to his queries, he approached

The ISBELL WILL.
MORE VALUABLES DISCOVERED
BY CONSTABLE O'BRIEN

The Assets Grow While the Heirs In
crease--Frederick Watterson's Re-
turn AnxiOusly Notwithstanding
Silver, Another Farm, More Dogs and
Well Stocked Wine Cellar Among
the Findings.
Frederick w. Watterson, the only
surviving witness Of the will left by
George A, Isbell, the real estate dealer,
who died recently, and on whose testi-
nlony the contest of the document will
in all probability be decided, is travel
ing in the west. This will mean a de-
lay in the settling of the matter for
several weeks, it is said. Mr.. Waiter
son is a travelling salesman and his
home in this city is at 8 Park street.
He is off on a business tour and the
date Of his return home is very UNI
certain.
The persons at interest anxiously
await his return as it is expected that
he will know whether the word Mrs >
was inserted before the name of The
ron A. Todd at the time the will was
executed. 1t is on the claim of the
heirs of law of Mr.. Isbell that the word
was written in afterward and in conse-
uuence the will was made invalid. If
the will is found to be valid all the
property will go to Mrs, Hattie A.
Todd. The hearing on the probating of
the will has been set for May Z, but If
Mr.. Watterson is still absent from the
city, it will have to be postponed.
Matters in connection with the will
seem to be getting more complicated
every day. More rich discoveries are
said to have been made and more
would-be heirs are also said to have APP
peared Constable OBrien Is still
searching, and his searching is being
rewarded with some degree of success.
He is reported to have found another
farm belonging to the estate and locat-
ed in Trumbull, but the size and value
of it is not known A wine cellar stock
ed with brands that would rejoice the
heart of a king, rare antique furniture
and valuable silver articles are also
among the articles discovered that will
go to swell the assets Of the estate.
Moro dogs have also been found which
brings the total Of collies owned by
Mr. Isbell up to eighteen.
