CIRCUIT JUDGE VANDEVANTER COMES
TO RESCUE OF THE ROCK ISLAND ROAD

St Paul, Aug. 5.-Judge Vandevanter,
in the United States circuit court, today
issued a temporary restraining order pro-
hibiting the secretary of the state of Ar
kansas from FORGETTING the right of the
Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific railroad
from doing business in that state
The complaint was presented to the
court by Attorney Hicks of Little Rock.
The railroad is organized under the
laws of the state of Iowa and has the
right to bring suits against citizens Of
Arkansas in the federal court and to
have removed into the United States
court any suits begun in the state
courts. The last Arkansas legislature
passed an act providing that any corpO-
ration which should commence a suit in
the United States court against any citi-

zen of Arkansas or which should remove
any suit pending in a state court into
the United States courts, should forfeit
all rights to do business in the state and
should be subject TO a penalty of $1,000
a day for each day it should thereafter
continue to do business therein. The sec
rotary of state is obligated with the duty
of enforcing the law.
Recently citizen of Arkansas brought
suit in the state court against the Rock
island railroad and the railroad there
upon had il removed TO the federal court
The secretary of state thereUpOn began
forfeiture proceedings and they were
stopped by an injunction issued here to-
Gay. The injunction will hold matters
in allegiance until the authority of the
secretary of state can be determined.
Hearing will be had al Little Rock. Oct 2

Maggie j. Kelley only had one month of

month later and has since failed TO pro-
vide for her. This occurred while she was
on d visit to Logan. The decree was
granted, and she was given the custody OF
an eleven-months-Old baby.

can't look after the details of a city
such as Salt Lake has when he is in
southern California; do you think he can?
Unequal to Demands.

home city and | am proud of it. / think
Salt Lake ought to have as good a gov

order to have a good government the head
of that government must be here to look
after things. l don't want to hamper the
administration one whit, and ] hope the
council will select the best man for the

RESIGNATION OF SHEETS ACCEPTED
BY COUNCIL WITHOUT COMMENT

The resignation of George A Sheets,
chief of police, was rendered to the coun-
ell last evening and accepted. The ex-
pected attempt of the opposition to re-
fuse the resignation and secure the
passage of a resolution BUSTING him from
office instead did not materialize. When
the resignation was read Councilman Tud-
denham remarked:
Let's accept il. and let it go at that, ."
and his advice was accepted.
Coming close after the mayors resigna-
ton, the Sheets document created no lit
tie comment.
When the city recorder announced "a
communication from the city engineer, ."
Councilman Barnes asked whether it was
another resignation. Nobody on the
American side Of the chamber even
smiled.

minated, that you have made up your
mind to leave the American paTty-yOu
and Mr.. Sheets and some Others?"
7 don't know what Mr.. Sheets is going
TO do, but L know what m going to do.
I'm going to Los Angeles just as soon as
I can and I'm going TO stay there as long
as necessary if the climate helps me. My
doctor advised me TO do that two months
or more ago, and l ought to have done it
sooner If I don't improve in Los An
geles I will seek a restoration of my
health elsewhere. I hope to be able to
get away by the first of next month
Mrs. Thompson will probably accompany
me. My plans are not yet fully arranged
but that is about the outline of what We
intend to do.
Now, you know it is fact that a man
can't run a business if he isn't on the spot
TO attend to both the major and minor de-
tails. The details of a city government
have got to be looked after by the mayor
and by no one else so long as the mayor

of the way in which things have been
run in both of these departments and will

Up to the present time these men have

Put Little Ones to Sleep.
With the cunning of a mind deranged
she laid her plans to put her little ones

has done, and no more. Leaving her lit

year. playing in the street, she put the
younger of her children, Yarosiov, year
and three months old, in its carriage ana
took it to a nearby park. Just what hap
pened there is not known. When the
mother returned the little one in the car

In Honor Of Miss Carpenter.

One If the most enjoyable and most
nerfect in every detail of the many
pleasant social events of the spring
oeason was the tea given Friday al
ternoon by the members of the STU
dents Club, complimentary to MISS
Mary Carpenter. The handsome resi-
denca of Mrs. r. c. Church, whicn
has recently been elegantly repapered
and refuruished. was thrown open for
this pleasant occasion, and proved a
most attractive setting for the many
brilliantly gowned and pretty women
gathered to meet the fair honoree'
" no has recently returned from an ex-
tended European tour.
The Church home with It's artistic
interior decorations, is especiahy
adaptable for entertaining. The draw

Numbers of wax tapers IN cr9s'"'

parlor, and papered in rich leather
shades. was most attractively deco
rated in white and green, snowoaiis
and ferns being used. The large ma
hogany table was covered with a
snowy cloth, strewn with feathery
sprays of fern. In its center was a
massive silver loving cup, holding
bouquet of snowballs and ferns CUT
glass receptacles contained rippon
candies In green and white, and CO
lonial silver candlesticks held wnite

tapers, with pale green shades. On
the electrolier above the table was
tied a greceful bow-knot of sea green
and while tulle. Crystal candle
sticks and vases of snowballs were
used on the mantle and buffet. Mrs.
Robert Pillow and Mrs William P.
Morgan seated at opposite sides of
the table, dispensed ices and cake,
which emphasized the chosen colors.
In the hall, which was adorned with
crimson peonies, Misses Hattie Fig
uers and Carrie Smith served tea and
sandwiches from daintily appointed
table.
The living room, papered in soft
dark shades of green and richly fur
nished in mahogany, is perhaps the
most attractive room in the mansion.
White flowers were also used here in
the decorations A very delightful
musical program proved a charming

fully presided at the piano, and Mrs.
Charles Forgey, whose rich, sweet
voice and gracious charming manner
have made her so we'll beloved and
appreciated in Columbia, rendered two
selections. Miss Mary Dale Figuers,
whose musical reputation has spread
far beyond the little home circle who
always enjoy so much her appearance,
gave several selections on the violin.
They were followed by Mrs. Hutton
of Shelbyville, who sang Sing Me To
Sleep and whose clear bird-like
voice is always enjoyed by those in
her old home where she is sadly
missed in both musical and social
circles.
Mrs. Church, in gown of soft pale
blue tissue, lace trimmed, was assisted
in receiving by Miss Mary Carpenter,
