JAP BETRAYS HIMSELF.
Shows knowledge of English in Re-
fuSai to Work.

X Yama, the Jap who has spent
several weeks in the county Jail, gave
further evidence of his linguistic ac-
complishments yesterday. When Yama
was taken to the Jail it was thought
that he was insane. He pretended that
he could not speak Japanese or Ko-
rean. Bat as he gained strength after
a long rest in the Jail, he, about a week
ago, revealed the fact that he could
talk his native. tongue quite fluently.
He would have been released had the
authorities known of some shelter open
for him. Yesterday morning, as the
sidewalk in front of the jail was COW
cred with snow, and Yama seemed fat
and sleek after his long vacation be-
hind the bars, he was detailed with
several of the prisoners TO clean of
the walk.
When a shovel was offered Yama,
he shook his head.
No he said, positively, 81 no
shovel"
In that brief statement he betrayed
that he could speak not only japanese,
but English as well.
AS he persisted in his rebellion, he
was taken back into the Jail and cast
into one Of the lower dungeons.

BUSY ARCHITECTS.

Do you know as a matter of fact that
Salt Lake has seldom been so prosper
Gus? It is true that in certain lines a
little of the national apprehension has
been felt here, but the result has been
only slowing down of those eXtrav-
agantly inclined, and that strong mid
die class, the vital balancing power OF
every community, are going about their
business as usual, business building
and home building. Already we are re-
ceiving inquiries regarding the new
houses we propose to build on Ninth
avenue in the spring. We will spend a
hundred thousand dollars in these new
homes, and architects and contractors
are busy with plans and. figures so there
will be no delay in the erection of the
new houses.
There are still few of the houses
which we built early in the fall in the
same vicinity still unoccupied, but we
expect them to be taken in a very short
time. The superb location, the modern
ism, the newness and above all the rea-
sonable terms of long time payments
under which we are selling them, MAX
ing them most desirable for people who
prefer to own their own homes than to
pay rent

MRS. EDDY WILL PAY
THE WHOLE AMOUNT

Boston, Dec. 2S.-The following state
ment regarding the charitable purposes
of the fund of 81, 100000 donated by Mrs.
Mary Baker G. Eddy was issued today
by Alfred Farlow of the Christian
Science Publication company:
There seems TO be an impression
that contributions to the funds are de
sired This is mistake. Since the
announcement of Mrs. FEddy's enter
prise she has been in receipt of many
letters Of appreciation from ali parts
of the world commencing ner efforts.
Many of these letters have been ac-
companied by checks sent as contribu-
lions to aid the funds 1t should be
well understood that Mrs. Eddy has
set aside the entire amount necessary
for this fund, namely S1,000000, and do
nations from others have not been
asked for, nor are any expected.

SCARLET FEVER RAMPANT
Thirty-eight New Cases Reported in
One Week-School Authori-
ties Alarmed.

The scarlet fever epidemic has reached
dangerous proportions and the health de-
partment seems poweriess. At the end
of the week fifty-nine houses remained in
quarantine on account of this malady,
and during the week thirty-eight new
cases were reported.
Seventy cases of measles, four of small
poX. one of typhoid, one of pneumonia
eight of diphtheria and one of tuberculosis
were also reported, making a total of 123
cases for the week.
The board of education has ordered a
thorough fumigation of all the school
buildings during the Christmas holidays
and this work is now progressing. 1t is
feared, however. that if the scarlet fever
epidemic does not subside the disease will
spread much more rapidly after school
cOnvenes Jan. 6. despite the precautions
that have been taken and the matter will
come up at the meeting of the board on
Jan. 7. If there is no change for the better
steps may be taken to close the schools
for another week.
There were fifty-three births reported
during the week. twenty-four males and
tWenty-nine females.

ATTACKS SISTERS WILL
Albert L. Riddle Alleges That Carrie
Eslinger Was Suffering From
Mental Disorder.

Alleging that the will of his sister, Car
rie l.. Eslinger. made June q. 1907. was
not her last will and that she was suffer
ing from a mental disorder when she
made it. Albert Leroy Riddle of New Bed
ford, O., yesterday objected to its being
admitted to probate. Judge Armstrong
appointed John n. Eslinger. husband of
the deceased and former policeman, as
special administrator pending the settle
ment of the trouble and fixed his bond al
50 500.
The will was filed Dec. 10, but has never
been admitted to probate. The applica-
ton for letters testamentary was made
by W. A. Holman. Mrs. Eslinger left real
estate valued at $1,000, mining stock OF
unknown value $500 in the Deseret Ma
uonal bank, a similar sum in Walker
Brothers bank and personal property
amounting TO about $500. The total value
of the estate is fixed at $4,000.
To her brother who seeks to have the
Will set aside she left a business at Lara
mic, WyO.

DOC GIBSON IS
A STOOL PIGEON
Held for Examination on
Charge of Robbing
Chris Larson.
POSED AS DEPUTY SHERIFF
WoRMEO FIRST CONFESSION
OUT OF JOSEPH. OWEN.

doc" Gibson, the ex-conVict who was
arrested early yesterday morning on the
charge of robbing Chris Larson, a labor
er, while masquerading as d deputy sher-
iff, was arraigned in the police court yes
terday morning and held under $3.50 bail
for examination. He was at once re-
moved from the city jail to the county
Jail.
When arrested Gibson claimed that he
had followed Larson and searched him
in obedience to instructions from the
sheriffs office. He claimed that the ar
ticles he is alleged TO have taken from
Larson were supposed TO have been
stolen.
The mans story was shattered into in
finitesimal fragments when Sheriff En-
cry denied that the man had any recoG-
niZed connection with his office.
1t was learned that GibsOns acquaint-
ance with crooks and knowledge of the
devious, winding ways of the under
world had been used by the sheriff in
tracking criminals, but that the ex-cOn-
vict had never been used actively in any
work
1t was said that Gibson was placed in
cell with John Owen, the confederate
of Joe Sullivan and Joe Garcia. immedi-
der of Policeman Ford. and that ne
wormed the first confession from Owen,
which established the fact that Garcia
had been given a hiding place by Tip
Belcher. the bartender at the Jubilee sa-
loon in Commercial street.
1t is believed that Gibson, presuming
upon the services he had performed N
bringing other criminals to Justice under
took to reward himself more literally
than those who had used him had done
and dipped into the adventure with Lar
son.
Gibson. it is said. served three yea IS
in the penitentiary for forgery, and while
imprisoned became acquainted with a
number of crooks. He made Commercial
street his headquarters and was in a pO-
sitiOn to furnish valuable information TO
the authorities
