back to Huntsville, distance of more

Mrs. Emma L. Blood has began an ac-
ton against Thomas Blood in the Fourth
district court at Provo for a divorce on
the grounds of failure to provide. They

Mrs Blood her husband has failed to pro-
vide the necessaries of life for herself
and two children. Mrs. Blood asks for $50
a month alimony.
The miners at the Tying mine in Ameri-
can Fork canyon went on a strike yes
terday as a result of a 25-cent cut in their
daily wages. On account of the deprecia-
ton of the metals and the stringency of
the money market the operators were
compelled to make the cut. About forty
men came down from the mine today.
At a meeting of the Oliver Mining COM
pany held here Saturday night assess

ration of the crisis and for an early
restoration of normal conditions and d
renewed start toward the revival of the
prosperous activities in which the coun-
try was previously engaged. Conf
dence is felt in the solid basis of that

A lower price level for materials is a
