to 0ffspring's Fate
Tragic Case.

Surrounded by filth showing plainly
many marks of neglect the 4-year-old
daughter of Mrs. Catherine Klenke died
yesterday morning of spasmodic Group,
while the mother was incarcerated in the
city Jail on a charge of drunkenness. A
short time after the little ones death had
been announced the unnatural mother was
taken before Judge Murphy in the city
court, where she was severely scored by
the court and the assistant city attOr-
ney. The sentence of the court was thirty
days in Jail. with no alternative. Sen
tence, however. was suspended long
enough to permit the woman to attend the
funeral of her dead daughter.
Mrs. Klenke was arrested on Thursday
the time of the arrest it was reported that
her child was critically i'll with the
whOoping cough and that during the ILL
ness had been sadly neglected. At police
headquarters the woman showed no signs
of humiliation when she was locked up
in the wOman's ward. Yesterday morning
Desk Sergeant Joseph Critchlow went t0
the wOman's cell and the following dia-
logue occurred:
How old is your sick baby?'
-Four years next January"
DO you know how it is getting along
this morning?"
u guess it's dead"
THAT is just what il is
well, l can't help 1t if il is dead"
In the court room, before the gaze Of
the spectators, when the judge and the as
sistant city attorney lectured the woman,
she maintained her stolid indifference
served the sentence imposed she should
be brought before him again on a similar
charge she would receive the maximum
sentence.

woman. with some right TO be called pref
~, led 2-year-old Slaxen-haired boy. The
husband, a short. heavy-set man, with lit
tie claim to being handsome, followed
with his attorney.
The cause of the dependency of both
was their failure to secure a divorce. The
wife was Maud +. Il. Lloyd and the nus
band William NJ. Lloyd. All day Thurs
day and part of yesterday their troubles
were aired in the court
Then the stern judge stepped in. He
declared that the evidence on both sides
showed that there had been a recOncilia-
ton as late as July last and for that
reason no divorce could be granted.
1t appears that the complaint was filed
May 10 by the wife, and that the hus-
bands answer and crOSS-complaint was
filed June "a On July Lloyd, accord
ing to the undisputed testimony, came to
Salt Lake from Sandy and remained at
his Wife's boarding house with her for a
day CT more. For this reason the judge
decided that all the trouble both had gone
70 was of no avail.
The case had many sensational features.
serious charges being made against tho
characters of each of the parties to the
suit.
John H. Hoar of Bingham Junction was
the first witness for the husband yester-
day. Hoar lays claim to being a ventrilo-
quist, a collector and a detective. He sail
that he had overheard Mrs. Lloyd make
the following remark when asked where
her child was:
II poured whisky Down the d. kid s
throat and put him to sleep"
Emma Benson, a sister Of Mrs. Lloyd,

asked the attorney
Yes"
Have you ever taken a drink"
why, yes, I have taken a drink or two;
l can't deny that"
The name of Thomas Culver, who is ac-
cused by the husband of being intimate
with his wife, was brought into the eX-
animation, ana Emma declared that she
had gone 20 sc yeral dances with him
Emma is a ouxom young woman. She
wore a broad Mexican straw hat, which

TO RELIEVE FUEL SHORTAGE
Rexburg Will Ship in Cordwood From
Upper Yellowstone
DroaH
Rrannh

Rexburg, Ida, Aug. 29-Efforts are be-
ing made to see that Rexburg is not with
out fuel this winter. The .Rexburg Mill
ing company has arranged to ship cold
wood from the upper part of the Yellow
stone branch to Rexburg. One lot of 800
cords will be gotten out in the near flu
ture. 1t is estimated that the wood can
be sold at ReXburg depot for 81 40 per
cord. We are now paying So per cord
when hauled by team from the mountains
east of town. A number Of people have
chartered cars and will load and ship a
carload of twelve cords for their own
use. In this way they will be able to get
their wood for about 81 80 or So per cord
b Coal is now s. % per ton, delivered. The
coal situation is no better and the chances
are that II will be worse during the cold
weather. In the present stage of develop
ment the Teton valley mines cannot sup
ply this section and when hauled to this
point is rather expensive at SO TO s12 per
ton.
The recent rains delayed harvesting a
little. It IS now clear again and binders
and mowers have resumed work. The

light frost a few nights ago did no dam
age to the alfalfa and very little to the

VISIT NEW BRICK PLANT
Architects and Their Families Guests
of the Kaysville Brick
COMPANY,

The architects of Salt Lake closed
their offices yesterday afternoon and,
with their families, went to Kaysville
TO inspect the newly-completed brick
yard and manufacturing plant of the
Kaysville Brick company.
The members of the party, number
ing about $50 people, were the guests
Of the brickyard people, and made the
trip over the Hamburger line, return
ing to the Lagoon at s o'clock, where
they were guests at delightful dinner
in the cafe at the resort. The spread
was epicurean in nature, and served
royalty.
At the brickyard the architects saw
what is unquestionably one of the most
modern and best equipped plants west
of the Missouri river The Kaysville
Brick company owns fifty acres of the
finest brick clay known. 1t is fifty feet
deep, the upper six feet of clay being
used to made red pressed brick, and
the rest for other shades. Next year a
steam shovel will handle the clay. This
year the mid is scraped by team and
hauled to the dump carts. These are
run up onto a high trestle. and by
electricity carried to the mixer. where
it is kneaded until in proper shape for
the presser. The architects saw the
great kneading machine at work, saw
the long strip of clay, the size of a
brick come steadily from the mouth
of the machine and the wire cutter
chop it into bricks.
The pressed bricks are pressed into
shape instead of being cut by wire.
The common brick, or wire-cut, are
burned in six great kilns, each holding
100000 brick.
Two Of these kilns are burning al
ways, and the others being refilled,
emptied or cooling off. The, pressed
bricks are burned in down draught
kilns, three in number, each holding
$4,000 bricks. The company can put
| 10000 brick a day on the local mar
ket. The company has on the ground
machines for making chimney blocks,
cOnduits, flower pots and dozen other
things. These will be put in operation
next year. The company has invested
about $4,000 In the plant.
All the machinery is electrically
driven, the Utah Light & Railway COM
pany furnishing the power.
