DR.. STEWART CRITICIZED.
Is Accused of Somewhat Peculiar
Procedure in Smallpox Cases.

There Is considerable indignation ex-
pressed in different quarters over the
action of DIR. Stewart, the health Of
ficer, in relation to several cases Of
smallpox which have occurred In this
city during the past 10 days. Cases in
point are cited on Sumner avenue
where Lon j. Haddock and Mrs. Rob-
erts are quarantined at their homes
with the disease. Mr.. Haddock, who
was taken down over a week ago with
light case, asked that he be removed
TO the isolation hospital but was in
formed by the health atsehorities he
must stay at home with hkO family.
This morning, however, kn was noti-
fed that he had, better go out to the
hospital as It had been decided to open
that Institution. 1t Is understood that
Mrs. ROBBERS also was SO notified al
though the quarantine at her house
will be raised on Tuesday. The alter
native given is that they must remain
In their rooms isolated from the rest Of
their respective families, all of whom
have already been exposed to the dis
ease for days.
The attending physicians, however
assert that their patients can remain
anywhere on the premises within IL
feet of the boundary line.
DR.. Stewart Is further reported 10
have made the statement that IL the
patients named go to the isolation hos
pital today the quarantine on their
homes will be raised tomorrow, al
though everybody on the place has
been exposed to the dread malady and
is liable TO come down with it at any
time.

WOOL SELLSFORHCENTS
Mrs. II. Bonncmort, the Queen OF
sheep Women" Disposcs of Two
Cars of Elccccs.

Unique indeed Is the wool situation.
Utah raisers are making determined
effort TO hold their own and get value
for their products, using their words.
The News a few days ago printed
the story OF the first sale OF wool in
this state. There was any number OF
denlals Forthcoming from prominent
wool growers OF this state that any
wool has been sold and when IL was ex-
planned that Marcus Harris exhibited
contracts, receipts and other papers
usually drawn up In such transactions,
the woDl raisefs did not withdraw a
bit from their positive stand. The
statement came In from all sides that
the buyers had misrepresented things
TO attempt to bear the market, with
the innocent aid of a newspaper. Wool
growers are determined to get more
than 10, IL or Is cents per pound, while
the buyers are not offering any par
ticular price but none above ~ cents.
President Il. II. Calister of the Utah
Wool Growers association makes a
statement which appears on another
page of this issue of the News
What he says and the following para
graph put side by side show why the
situation is unique.
Wool has been sold In Utah as the
News" said Among those who have
sold is Mrs. L. Bonnemnrt, the Queen
OF Sheep Women" as she is called by
wool raisers of the sterner sex, who has
just disposed Of two cars of wool for
which she accepted IL cents pound.
CThe News" said wool has sold at
prices ranging from 10 to 10 cents per
pound). Mrs. Bonnemort is resident
of Salt Lake; has a home on east Brig
ham street, and Tor a half dozen
years has been an active wool grower
and manager of big business fairs
affairs which would be too much for
the ordinary woman. There are sew
eral others who have sold and the
News" has the names in It's possess
sion.
The sales are the exceptions to the
rule, however, as u majority of the
growers belong to the Utah Wool
Growers association, an organization
whose first step was to get sheepmen
to agree to create a good market for
wool by storing 1t. AS an illustration
of how Utah growers in the holding
plan are standing by their announced
Intentions 1t Is but necessary to refer
to the wool growers with sheep at the
r. q. w. corrals, south of Price. Thirty
| thousand sheep have been sieared al
| ready and $4,000 are waiting their turn.

of shearing, itself. Every pound will
be put away.

market by remaining inactive. Buyers,
| here from the east, say but half the
| mills are running and with no de-
mand for wool, stiff prices cannot be
expected.

ball on his men, no matter where
he is.
Landreth has been potent factor in
the last five games won by the CoIo-
nels, and his ability to lay down a
pretty bunt is not the least of his vir-
tues. He beat out one Monday that
brought the fans to their feet in
roar of applause. He is easily one of
the most popular players in Louisville,
and has won a host of friends by his
clean, earnest work, devoid absolutely
of show and affectation. ICY" is there
to play ball. He does the best he can,
and is satisfied. despite the praise OF
criticism bestowed upon him by the
fans. He is, indeed, a valuable ac-
QUESTION to the Colonies.
If the Colonies land the coveted pen
share of the credit must go to Jack
Halla, who, although the youngest
member of the Colonel twirling staff is
the most consistent winner, says the
Louisville Times. The big left handler
is only "a years of age and has a bril-
liant future ahead of him. He may not
go to the majors this season but an
other year in the A A. will see him
numbered among the prominent south
siders of the big circuits. Halla per-
formed a feat seldom accomplished in
the American Association when he
pitched and won two games of a dou-
BILE header last Saturday. He fields his
position perfectly and for a pitcher is
a good batter. In these days of pen
nant aspiration the names that are
heard most frequently in baseball con-
versations are those of Halla and
Landreth.
And again the Louisville Times re-
marks: Often before 1t has been re-
marked that Dick Cooley was a friend
in need. Later developments cause the
fans to express their appreciation of
his oonsiderate interest in his old team
and the city of Louisville. Dick kept
nursed him carefully and then when
Louisville needed a hard-hitting out
fielder he quietly dispatched Landreth
to the Colonels with a hearty recon-
mendation. Now ICY" looks too fat
to be much of an outfielder and Burke
probably looked a little dubious until
he gave the farmer hero chance.
Now it is said that Burke writes Cooley
every day letter of thanks and sends
him clippings of the prowess of his
protege. Landreth has proved tower
of strength to the team since Joining
the Colonies, and makes his presence
felt every day.
Kaufman, another recruit recon-
mended by Cooley, looks to be a conner,
although he may not have an oppor-
tunity to display his talents this year.
Whether the pennant is won this sea-
son or not, the Louisville fans are al
ready talking enthusiastically about
next seasons chances. Cooley has a
team in the spring. Young Emory OIL
son, who is the fastest infielder of the
Western Association will go up next
season. Burke had him there this sea-
son but the other players wouldn't give
him a chance after they had seen him
in action. He will make good. Selby,
who has helped Cooley this season by
winning 80 per cent of the games he
pitched, will be given chance next
season and little doubt is entertained
over his chances of making good,
