formances for the benefit of the Los
Angeles Police Relief association will

list of talent.
Ki XII the man-monkey, Roy Allen
and Jack Walsh, police officers, eff
fectively advertised the benefit for the
Los Angeles Police Protective associa-
ton yesterday by driving around town
in an automobile. XII XII attracted
much attention by blowing a whistle
and the officers could not stop the
machine for more than few seconds
in place, as the crowds which col
lected were of such q size as to block
traffic.
The, officers were in uniform while
XII Ki was attired in his usual midway
costume of skins and furs. The wild
man is on the program Of the benefit
and will give his fire. eating act.
A more novel and effective mode of
Advertising could hardly have been de-
vised.
The program is as follows:

Six thousand dollars in cash to the

wife in Dubois, Penn.
Maud Kassouf was the belle of al
the Syrian colonies in western Penn
sylvania, and there were scores OF
suitors for her hand. But the girl
said she would not marry unless pro
vision was made for her mother.
Charles Hazey, also a Syrian, senior
member of big confectionery house
in Altoona, came to ask for Miss Kas
souf's hand. The mother told him
there were several others in the field,
and it was finally decided to bring to,
gether the more eligible of the suitors
and have an auction.
A wealthy young Syrian in the town
appeared and began to bid against Ha.
zey. The bidding was spirited, and
finally as clincher the local Syrian
bid $4,000 Hazel at once raised him
$1,000, and the girl was knocked
down" to him at $4,000.
The cash was paid to Maud's mama,
the Rev. F. McGiveny was called in to
perform the marriage ceremony, and
the couple are now "at home" in Al

"GINERAL GEoGHEGAN.

So "Gineral Geoghegan" has re-
signed. All, what a pity!
We loved this gallant officer, this
ex-member of the Royal Irish Fusi-
leers, who in Utah's darkest hours,
when the balance of the National
Guard were taking to the long grass,
CALAMITY accepted a commission from
Governor Cutler, drew his bright
sword from it's FURNISHED sheath, and,
crying, Rally Round the Flag, Boys"
drew to his support Colonel H. M. H.
Lund, Captain B. H. e. H. Lund,
Color Sergeant A. R. U. I. N. Lund,
and several other Lunds, and saved
the day.
We loved him for his military pres
ence, because he looked the hero
whether in the toggery of carnage or
with carving knife in hand at the
head of the table. We liked to see
him use the military tread as he
placed both hands to his side and gal
loped in double time after a street
car. We used to yearn to watch him
march with slow and measured step
into hack We used to lay awake
nights dreaming of him as he stood
under the draped flags of his adopted
country and watched the boys
"dhrill."
We loved him, too, because we had
learned to look upoD him as a sort of
protector. We shGddered as we read
of prospects of war with other ma
tons until the thought came over us:
I'VE have 'Ginerel Geoghegan'" Then
our doubts fled to the tall and uncut
and we ate our pie in peace, realiz-
| ing that the destinies of the nation
were in safe hands.
We loved him because of his eu-
phonious title. Colorado had its
Sherman Bell and Pennsylvania its
Stewart, Nebraska had it's Colby and
other states had theirs, whatever
their names were, but none of them
had Geoghegan. "Ginerel Geoghe-
gan!" There was music in the sound
1t rippled lightly over the tongue like
the sound of falling water in a spring
house or the gurgle of the cream in
the churn about the time the butter
started to come.
| To lose him is indeed a calamity
We will never forget him, however,
and we believe his name and his fame
will stand long after those who forced
him to resign have been forgotten
| "Ginerel Geoghegan" resigned be-
cause the governor of the state per-
mitted banquet to take place in the
armory at Salt Lake on the anniver-
sary of the birth of Lincoln. The
governor was insistent and the Gin
erel' was persistent. Let him rest
in patience, however, because the
name of the youth who fired the Ephe-
sian dome is inscribed on the pages
of history while the man who con-
structed it has no place in the record

The Tribune says editorially that it
will tell the truth. It's the biggest lie
it ever uttered.
Truth. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1901-1908, 1906-02-17

The organ of the knockers is just
now more than usually angry at Pres
ident Roosevelt, all because the pres
ident refuses to be deceived by the
falsehoods ex-senator Kearns and his
gang carry to him regarding Utah and
her people. The president has had
considerable experience of Mr..
Kearns and his crew and by that ex-
perience knows that their statements
are not to be believed under any cir
cumstances. The president, the organ
of the revenge society says, sis sup
posed to have some sense" and then
goes on to add more insults to those 1t
has for years offered to the greatest
president, with one exception, that OF
Lincoln, this nation ever had.
The charges which have been made
against Postmaster Thomas were all
trumped up by the Tribune and there
is not a vestige of truth in them. The
Tribune in a half sarcastic way hopes
Mr.. Thomas will be able to clear
himself. That is a small sample of
Tribune duplicity, but the sheet need
not worry, the postmaster will clear
himself all right. He did so a couple
of years ago when Kearns and his
minions formulated false and scam
dalous accusations against him. He
not only cleaned himself but covered
his accusers with ignomy. He will
do so again. No mans reputation is
safe in a community where such a
BLACKBOARD sheet as the Tribune is
published
