Chauncey Olcott possesses that rare
gift. a rare sense of humor of things in
everyday life. He relates the following
incident which fell under his observation
while travelling through the bituminous
coal regions OF Pennsylvania
A large, motherly looking woman in q
department store said TO a shop girl:
Il want to get pair of gloves for my
Jim He's going to a ball"
Yes. madam" said the girl producing
white kid gloves. This is the kind, i
suppose"
Them cried the woman Goodness.

hand like a shoulder OF mutton Besides
they're too dear Haven't you got some
thing ike the policemen wear-at about
10 centsg
The clerk smilingly regretted that they
did not keep that kind.
.Oh. very well. the old lady replied !:
there's no help for it-Jim'll have to
wash his hands. after all"

THE CITY BEAUTIFUL. IS

Not long ago the Chicago Record
Herald printed a verse which has been
going the rounds Of the press. and has
been greeted everywhere as the one
fine satire Of the year on a certain class
or citizens:
He called for city beautiful
He shouted it day by day;
He wanted a city where noise was not.
Where the spirit of art should sway;
He wanted city that should be fair,
Where filth might never be seen.
And forgot, in spite of the zeal he had,
To keep his back yard clean.
Here in Salt Lake the city admins
tration went into office a year ago with
the proclaimed intention OF giving the
people a most beautiful city: it was
going to clean up" the city offices and
install model appointees; it was to fur
nish such public service as had never
been known IN the police department,
the street department, i'm public works
and i'm health and sanitation. Every
thing evil but pain and taxes was to
be abolished and the way paved for
municipal millennium.
II loud shouting and constant assev-
Grafton could have done things Salt
Lake would be ready now for annexa-
tion to the New Jerusalem.
Unhappily the shouting and promises
were forgotten in the rush for jobs as
soon as the administration got into Of
fee. The same old bunch of profession
al workers clamored for rewards in the
shape Of salaried places: much the
same old bunch assumed control Of the
nice contracts; one man still held onto
the distribution Of public work-to him.
self; sanitation failed to sanitate under
the construction given the word by its
responsible administrator, and the pub
lie service was so badly demoralized
that even the supporters Of the admin
istration we're compelled to criticise it
publicly.
In their zeal for the reformation OF
whole state, the administrations hench-
men forgot to keep their municipal back
yard clean.
Since the first of the year. the city
fathers, the mayor and the mayors
spokesmen, have talked a good deal
about changing this order Of things.
Having had a years experience with
conversational reform, the public has
hesitated TO accept at par the promises
and asseverations. Possibly they have
grown hypercritical. and yet regarding
the results their skepticism may be par
doned SO far this year, Two subjects
of Importance have come up: extras for

and the effort to reform Street Super

were compromised, and extras for an
other followed the street supervisor,
with some show OF reluctance, agreed
to follow instructions and itemize his
acquisitions He still holds Office and
does little more, while the streets and
crossings are impossible after every
storm. 49,
To the thoughtful seeker for good,
this program of reforms accomplished
seems pitifully small after all the talk
that preceded il. The administrators
friends are still reforming the nation,

TO UNION MEN
President Roosevelt Writes a
Letter Regarding Meyer
Haywood Case.
Says That "our Duty is to See That
Exact Justice is Done These Men,"
and is Willing TO Interfere

New York,-In letter read Sunday
| before the Central Federated union,
| President Roosevelt states that If evil
dence Is submitted to him showing
justice for or against Meyer and Hay
wood awaiting trial at Boise, Idaho,
charged with the murder of former
Governor Steunenberg, he will bring
such evidence to the attention of the
attorney general for such action, if
any, as it may be in the power of the
federal authorities to take.
The communication was the formal
reply of the president to the union
committee which recently called on
the president and requested him to
set forth in general his attitude
toward the accused men and spe,
officially why he had referred to Meyer
and Haywood as undesirable citi.
zens."
In making his report, the chairman,

chairman, and Coalkley, another mem
Der of the committee, stoutly cham
pioned the attitude of the chief exec.
utive. 1t was finally voted to send
copy of the letter to counsel for
Meyer and Haywood.
In his reply the president quoted
from a letter written by him more
than year ago to the attorney gen.
eral, in which he says that "cir duty
is Qf it should ever happen that we

soDY OF MARVIN BOY FOUND
Partial Clearing up of Mystery That
Has Puzzled Whole Country.

Dover, Del---The body of little Hor-
ace Marvin, who disappeared from the
farm of his father at Kittshammock,
near here, March 4, was found Satur-
day afternoon in a marsh in state
of preservation.
DR.. Marvin, at the moment the body
was found, was not ready to say
whether the body was placed where
it was found or whether he believed
the child wandered into the marsh
and lost his life.
The marsh was frozen over the
day the boy disappeared. There is a
theory that the boy was murdered and
his body placed in the marsh, as the
long grass where the body was found
was burned and cleared four weeks
ago.
