MESSENGER DRAPER
ROUGHLY HANDLED
Youthful Romeo Rounded Up
and WaIlOped by CowardIy
HOOdIumS.

Joe Draper, a lad il, employed as a
messenger by the Western Union Tele-
graph company, was acting as escort
to young Miss on her way nome last
evening when they were accostcd by
couple of hoodlums who. according
to Draper, used ''language' which was
perfectly shocking TO the delicate sen
sibllifies Of his charge. Draper still
according to his own story, Informed
them that but for the presence of the
young lady, he would annihlate them
then and there. Thereupon one of the
bad young men suggested that the mes
senger first see the lady to her home
and TO do his annihilating later, at point
near his destination where they would
wait for him. This suited Draper, but
it didn t suit his lady love who refused
TO leave his side, lest the wretches,
who were lying in wait for him, shed
his rich young gore. Accompanied by
the girl Draper proceeded to his own,
which is in tho neighborhood, and
armed himself with a 22 calibre pls-
tol with which he opened fusilade
against the enemy. The latter stood
their ground however, and defied the
messenger TO throw away his gun and
fight either one of them according 10
messenger boy rules. Accepting this
defy, Draper handed the weapon over
10 MS l0dN 1alf ana pun up MS plops.
Then Jared it i'll with Draper. While
nc busted himself in an endeavor TO
land knockout swing on the Jaw of
one of his antagonists, the other
sneaked up from the rear and soaked
him in the neck. In less than minute
the two had him down and out. The
victors then took she pistol away from
the young woman and were in the act
of administering a final kick to the still
M urhpn the latter g
mother, who had heard the shots and
scented trouble from aflr. bore down
upon the bunch and put the enemy TO
flight. Draper reported the matter 10
the police shortly after midnight, and
received official assurance that warrants
will be issued for the arrest Of his as
sailants today.

OGDEN POLICE CHIEF
MAY RETAIN POSITION
Supreme Court of Utah Affirms
Judgment Of the Lower
< Court.
Has No JURISDICTION
OF SUBJECT MATTER
Statute Gives Power to Mayors
and City Councils; Gist
of Opinion.

La ar opinion handed down by the
Supreme Court Friday, the judgment of
the lower court is affirmed in the case
Of j. ., Skeen, appellant, VS.. Thomas
f Browning, Chief OF Police of Ogden
City, and the Chief is permitted to re-
tain his position. This case was heard
by Judge Armstrong. and the defendant
was charged with wilful and negligent
disregard OF officia! duty a demurrer
was hIed contending that the court had
TO jurisdiction of the subject matter
of tine action. The demurrer was sus~
tanned by the court and the action was
dismissed and an appeal taken.
The contention was advanced in be-
half OF the Chief that the Legislature
had delegated the power of appointing
snd removing the heads of the police
aud fra departments to the Mayor and
City Council, hence the court had 10
jurisdiction
Abiding to the power of removal
from Office, the Supreme Court says it
il provided in section of the act OF
1899. among other things, that the 50 ac-
ton of the Mayor and Of the City
Council in removing the mead of such
department shall be official and con-
elusive and shall not be reviewed or
called in question before any court -
The intention of the Legislature is con
siderc6 so be the creation OF special
tribunals and special methods for the
removal of the heads Of police and fire
departments, and they were not intend
cd 10 come within the provision Of sec.
tiou 1880, on which proceedings IN this
case are based.
Concluding the opinion. the Supreme
Court saws: ''It should likewise be
kept in mind that IN comforting upon
cities the power to create and control
the police departme ents the State dele
gated to them n part of Its sovereign
power which such cities execute as the
agents of the State. The reason, there
fore, readily suggests itself why the
power of both appointment and remov"
al of the heads of the police depart
rnepts were placed in the hands of those
upon whom falls the duty to execute
The powers conferred by the State, 1t
is equally obvious why individuals
should not ne permitted through the
courts TO meddle with the conduct and
control Of these departments in any
way While in some instances, perhaps.
interference by the courts may seem
necessary, it might in the long run
prove more pernicious than is the de-
NAL of the right to do so. 1t seems
to us that it was not intended that the
courts of tins State should exercise the
power sought to be invoked in this pro
ceeding and hence the court did not
err in sustaining the demurrer.
The opinion was written by Justice
Frick and concurred in by Chief JUS
tice McCarty and Justice Straup.

OGDEN. March 22.-While the forces
OF the Ogden Sani,arium company were
trying TO throw new bridge over the
river 10 carry the hot water pipeline,
which was washed out on Thursday, the
bridge fell to one side and a Frenchman
named Bolo was thrown into the raging
torrent. He was carried down the river
500 feet but escaped collision with the
big boulders. Near the old channel lust
above the Sanitarium he got hold OF some
willow twigs. but they broke off rapidly
and a tourist and athlete named ], r.
Clewell of Toledo. o.. went out and gave
him assistance. The swirl OF the waters.
however was so great that the lives Of
both men were In jeopardy. J II. <urtz.
president and manager OF the Sanitar-
iufn. was near by and Just as II seemed
the two men had lost all holds. Ny.
Kurtz grabbed the feet Of Clewell and
they all recovered their footing on the
bank. Bolo the man who first fell into
the river. was neary drowned when he
was pulled out. He was taken into the
hotel of the Sanitarium and after being
resuscitated was able to speak coher-
emily. Clewel Just happened along on a
tour. but was very useful in the saving
OF life. Mr. Kurtz rsked his own ire
but saved two and his own in addition.
The bridge which was being swung over
the river vert down with the current
but was secured and will be hung into
place Saturday.
