He became involved with crowd of
Young people who have been guilty of

handled by that court, several of them
having been committed to the state in

Tarribo, on account of his age, was
beyond the jurisdiction of the juvenile

STATE FARMS MAY
Be CLOSED DOWN
Legislature Failed to Make Pro-
vision for institutions at Lehi
And st. George.
DEPENDED ON GOVERNMENT
Information Now Received That This
Calculation Was Not Well Found
ed--May Create Dc8cit.

The experiment farms at Lehi and
st George viii in all probability be
closed down unless the state board of
examiners can find some way of ere
ating n deficit in order to advance the
money necessary to maintain the
farms until the next session of the Leg
islature. The matter was brought to
the attention OF the board yesterday by
President j. A. Widtsoe Of the Agri-
cultural college L. n, stohl. president
OF the board OF trustees of that insti-
tuition. and Senator w. N. Williams
FAILED TO APPROPRIATE.
They stated that the last legislature
had failed to make an appropriation
for the maintenance of the farms al
though Senators John " Smith and
Albert +. Miller made desperate Of
fort to secure one. The majority of
the legislature argued that the farms
could be maintained out OF the appro-
priation from the federal government
TO the Agricultural college and hence
defeated the appropriation of $4,000 as
asked by the two senator's
The government now informs the
trustees of the Agricultural college
that no part of its appropriation can
be used for the experiment farms,
hence 1T leaves those institutions with
out funds for the ensuing two years.
MAY CREATE DEFICIT.
The board requested that state
nent in regard to the matter be sub
mitted in writing and It will advise
with the attorney general as to whether
or not deficit can be legally created
in order to furnish money for the
farms. The closing down of the farms
would mean a great loss to the state
and the supporters OF the institutions
are in hopes that some way will be
found to keep them going.

day. The committee has not yer. de-
cided whether or not II will make a
demand of cents an hour increase
upon the road at this time or not
But whatever decision is reached there
will be no meeting between the repre-
sentatives of the men and the railroad
until next week owing TO the absence
from the city OF w. Smartin, general
manager of the road. 1t Is generally
believed that If the demand is made
the road will grant 1t, and in that case
the Colorado and Southern viii prob
ably grant the demands of the strik-
ers
In the meantime the Colorado &
Southern strike remains unchanged
except for the claims of the company
that 1t is constantly putting on more
men and getting back to normal

STRUGGLED CHEvI0TS. =
Two Scotch Sailors With New Line
Strike Salt Lake.

Tho sailor with the smuggled cigars
which he viii sell for a song has
made room for the latest proposition
to come to town. This time it is two
Scotch sailors" who have - uggled
through the customs several bolts of
Scotch cheviots-at least that Is their
story.
Today those two individuals have
been energetically rounding up the
business offices and are displaying
some elegant tailor's samples. They
are Scotch all right and the men look
the part, Their dialect fairly rocks
of the heather of the bonnie moors
and makes the verbal efforts of the
McWhirtor brothers ct al, sound like
pure Anglo Saxon.
They claim to be sailors and to have
got the cloth by legitimate means in
tho "old country" but did not go
through the formality of passing in
spection nj the landing dock.

might investigate.

ton TO the board of education. The OPP
position with which he has met among

vorce proceedings instituted by his for
mer wife. Celia McCready, cause sew
eral of the members of the board to OPP
pose his reappolntment as a principal
for the coming school year. The major
itv of the board voted for him and he
was confirmed. Soon afterwards he
was transferred from the Jackson
school which was not to his liking. The
three members who opposed his reap
pointrnent also opposed his transfer and
the result was quite fight over the
matter in the board meeting.
NELSON SOLVES PROBLEM.
Nelson solved the problem by tender
ing his resignation and harmony viii
again prevail among the members of
the board of education. The COMMITTEES
accepted his resignation yesterday af-
ternoon and appointed Miss Evelyn
Reilly to succeed him. This is quite
promotion for Miss Reilly who has
heretofore been principal of the Poplar
Grove school and is a recognition of her
splendid work. NJ. c. Brown was trans
ferred from the Waterloo school to this
Poplar Grove school TO take Mics
Reilly's place and E. E. II. Scott was
