The Judge, who now has jurisdiction
over Murray, went down to the town

result that n stringent effort will be
made TO restrain the turbulent youth

was formerly judge of the court at
Murray, has been acting as a proba
ton officer at the request of Judge
Gowans. He brought up two boys
Tuesday who have been unruly and
who will be dealt with by the court
Judge Gowans thinks the bows of
Salt Lake have been a little too pro.
miscuous with the use of firearms and
proposes to enforce the law which for
bids the handling of such weapons by
minors.
An instance Of this came before him
on Tuesday when Patrolman Taylor
brought in four lads about Is years
of age, who have been shooting about
the cemetery with shot guns. Some of
the shot lodged in Tavlor's anatomy

raigned before Judge Gowans and their

Free haircuts were added Tuesday
morning by the preparatory students
of the university TO the list of rewards
to the unfaithful who failed to work on
the big 'U' off to the northeast of
the city.
Monday afternoon every preparatory
student of the school signed pc
tition 10 the faculty asking for per-
mission to work out on the hill clean
ing the space for the big monogram.
Not certain, however, what the effect
of this wonld be, they decided to meet,
regardless OF any stand the faculty
might take, at 8 clock Tuesday morn
ing. Those who came lafe or who did
not show a contrite spirit and deter
mination to work were given free
haircut. bnt before the young gentle
men Will he fit for appearance in pub
lie, they will undoubtedly have TO pay
the regular fee to have their hair put
in proper shape.
Seventeen .'dead ones" were handled
this way by the preps. Souvenirs Of
the hair of the entire seventeen are
now on exhibition at the school. and
efforts to purchase the same show the
