SALT LAKE ELKS
PREPARING M|RTH
Second Annual Excursion Ar
ranged for AntIered Herd
of Zion Pasture.
INTERESTING PROGRAMME
HAS BEEN ARRANGED
Features of Last Year Repeated
With Numerous and Varied
Additions.

All arrangements have been com
pleted for the second annual excursion
Of the local order Of Ellis to Los An
gcles, as Secretary A. W. Raybould
returned recently from the land of won
ders, where, besides securing the keys
to all the hotels, he chartered the scenic
railroads for a period of several days
Immediately succeeding February 9-the
day on which the excursion leaves Salt
Lake City. The antlered herd, although
1T has reputation in the matter Of en-
tertalnment, does not lay claim to a
complete mastery OF the subject, and
consequently many of the precepts of
the memorable excursion of last year
will be adopted in this instance. All
of the good TEXTURES of the last ex-
cursion viii be included in the present
undertaking, with the addition of sew
cral diversions hitherto undreamed Of
by any body of entertainers
Side Trips Everywhere.
In the face of what took place during
the first excursion of the local Elks.
which left this city on February 10. last
year, it may be thought that this is
putting it rather strongly, but when IT
is observed that every room in the new
King Edward hotel has been placed at
the disposal of Secretary Raybould, and
that he has provided for n side trip TO
Mount Lowe, another TO San Diego and
Old Mexico, excursions to Catalina ISL
and, San Bernardino, Riverside. the
Smiley Heights country. n special for
the balloon trip and trip TO China
town, besides numerous other pilgrim
ages, this ought to dispel even the shad-
ow Of all doubt
Last years excursion was patronized
by 10 Elks and their friends, and on
the strength of it's success, doubtless
more than n thousand will take advan
tage of the present opportunity. The
present committee on arrangements is
composed Of several Of the most active
members of the order and its member

County Attorney Receives Verbal

The case of Attorney William Newton

Mr. Newton feels very badly al the

Christensen down 10 the street and gave
him a verbal cudgelng which turned the
air blue.
He reminded the man who had at
tempted TO disgrace him that the case
had been once investigated by the Coun-
" Attorneys office and had been aban-
doned because of the palpable lack of
evidence upon which to base a charge
He also called attention 10 the fact that
after job Lyon, whom he characterized
as the brains and character OF the
County Attorneys office had refused 10
prosecute and Christensen had issued new
warrants. He charged Christensen with
having attempted. out OF pure and simple

abuse II was certainly "A classic. and the
pompous Farley p. stood for 1t as though

SUBSCRIBERS WILL

WILL RECEIVE PART
OF DONATION BACK
Statement of Receipts and Dis
bursements Given in Full
by Committee.

Those patriotic Utahns, who, for the
honor of their State and out of sheer
pride of their section, subscribed toward
fund to give Utah a send.off in an
agricultural and Horticultural way at
the Fourteenth National Irrigation con
gress, little thought at the time of sub
scription that they would get part of
the money back. Yet a little report,
presented this week to Gov. Cutler by
the exhibition and finance committee Of
the Utah exhibit at the congress, shows
that subscribers will be returned at
least % per cent of their contributions.
This report, contained in neat little
booklet. is most remarkable from sew
eral standpoints. When the State of
Utah starts in any race she usually
finishes just as her hackers play her.
The congress, which was held at Boise,
Ida. September to 8, saw the most
representative showing that Utah has
ever made Generous merchants and
private individuals contributed in such
liberal fashion that the State for once
was adequately represented, the consc-
Quence being that everything went af-
ter was taken MS prizes without n strug
gle.
Fred j. Kiesel, Fisher Harris and
Willis T. Beardsley, who comprised the
committee, are now congratulating each
other, the exhibitors and subscribers,
for a glance at the following figures

CHILD OF FOREST DRUNK
Red Man Promises Judge Diehl That
He Will Be Good

John Lujan a full blooded Apache In
dian who recently arrived in town from
Mexico. deposited ten dollar bill with
a bartender Wednesday night and after
getting soaked with whiskey forgot
where he had left the money. The more
he thought about his loss the hotter and
drunken he got. Finally he determined
TO eliminate all bartenders from the face
of the earth. With this purpose in view
he started in at a First South street sa-
loon. but before he had fairly begun
on his first victim Officer Stains nipped
his murderous scheme in the bud and
took him 70 rhe police station.
The redskln was lighting mad when
thrown into the drunk cell and, in lieu
of bartenders TO annihilate, he essayed
the destruction of the half dozen in
mates OF the dingy cage. He didn't get
far with the job, for they Joined forces
against him and It wasn't long before
he was yelling for help. Jailer Ripley
and Officer Harris responded and
dragged the battered and bloody child
OF the forest from danger.
In the police court THURSDAY after
noon Lujan told the judge that II al

AT meeting held Thursday after

a committee was appointed to call on
the management Of the Oregon Short

The railroad company recently
changed the location for unloading cars
from the First South street depot to
the new yards at First and Second
North. The yards at this place are
full of springs, making the ground very
swampy. The roads leading to these
Yards are very bad at this time of the

charge from 81 10 Sl50 ton for un-
loading grain and -four, as against so

three 10 four days TO unload a car at
the present site, whereas at the old
place car could be unloaded in half
a day
