BIC CHANGE IN
BETTING RULES

NEW YORK, Feb. 26.--To minimixe
betting and also prevent the young
from risking money at the race tracks.
the jockey club win probably adopt
the English method Of credit wager
ing this year.
II this plan be introduced 1t means
that there will be 40 exchange OK
money at the track. The settling OF
all wagers will be done at some place
away from the race courses. This viii
be no hardship to the large bettors.
as all their betting Is now done on the
credit system. The people affected by
the innovation will be the small play
ers who frequent the field" Most
of them bet very little to race, anc
are not known to the layers In that
space. Under the English plan they
would have to think up some new
scheme to enable them to back their
choices.
The introduction OF this system will
mean very large financial loss to
the different racing associations. but
II the jockey club sends forth its edict
they will be compelled to obey. Il
meeting OF the jockey club will be held
within the next few days. at which
time they will probably make thelr

BROWN STILL A Citizen
Action to Invalidate Naturalization
Certificate Dismissed on
Technical Ground.

Judge John A. Marshall handed down a
decision Monday morning in the case of
the United States against David R. Brown
which was brought TO cancel his certifi-
cate of citizenship procured in 1891. The
decision of Judge Marshall is TO the effect
that the case must be taken up i'm equity
proceedings and Browns citizenship can
not be cancelled by proceeding at law.
United States District Attorney Booth
brought the charge against Brown on
July 23g 1908, at which time the defendant
was making application for civil service
position. Brown, who is a native of Great
came 10 the United States in the
year 1886. when y years of age. On April
q. 1881, he made application for citizen
ship TO the clerk of the Third district court
in the territory of Utah and was issued a
certificate by II. G. Mcmillan. who was
at that time clerk of the court. Brown
made affidavit that he had been in the
United States fOr~five years. the required
length of time. 1t was afterward learned
that he made affidavit three months too
early. Brown acknowledges these facts
but states that the mistake was uninten-
tional and is willing to have a default de-
clared as to the papers and make appli-
cation anew. The action against him was

Yesterdays matinee in Judge Diehls
courtroom was a hodge-podge of a little
of everything, beginning with the common
Vag and ending with the old, familiar
piece, the neighbOrhood row.
The charge against the firstenan up II.

steal appearance was in keeping. He had
inhabitated Salt Lake for five days previ-
Gus without any visible means of support
and without making any effort TO obtain
work He was given until midnight TO dis
play a little energy by leaving the city.
Thomas P. Patton unnecessarily took up
the time of the court by pleading not
guilty to having been drunk at the Mani
tou hotel Saturday night He had been
drinking, he said. but he knew all the
time what he was doing so could not have
been drunk. Special PatrOlman johnson,
however, had diagnosed his case as sim
pie. common drunk, attended by no COM
plications.- Although found guilty he was
discharged. which would have happened
had he pleaded guilty to begin with.
The plea that it had been the first time
in his life that he had been compelled to
resort to begging, and that he did so be-
cause he was hungry. did not help Fred
Smith much when under the questioning
of Judge Diehl he admitted that he had
squandered money on whisky earlier in
the week Smith was arrested Saturday
when he was caught begging on Second
CRY for the next thirty days at least.
1t was peculiar kind of a drink that
George Bell and Frank White discovered
Saturday night-it not only equaled the
poppy in its drowsy effect but it acted
strangely on the eyesight. so strangely in
fact that when the drowsiness came on
they could not distinguish the laundry

man told ofFhow they had been drinking
and as they began TO feel sleepy they saw
the wagons, and clambered into them TO
sleep. Judge Diehl put ST. Regis price
on the beds and their few minutes
slumber cost them so each.
Judge Diehl found himself in quandry
Tor few minutes yesterday. If he found
one Richard Barton guilty and fined him,
he would have to find himself equally
guilty and pay a self-imposed fine. Bar
ton was accused of having violated the
liquor ordinance by giving away a bottle

bench admitted that he had done the
same thing last Sunday. The failure of
the prosecution TO prove that Barton had
received any money for the bottle of beer

saved the day The city intended to show
that Joe Hunter had bought bottle of
beer from Barton on Sunday, but the pros

German Pottery Output.
Mr.. pepper places the total annual
1,otterv output OF Germany at from
$4,000 900 10 $4,000, 600. an increase of
from so to 100 per cent within ten years
About one-half o. the product is ex-
ported to other countries. and in 1907
the expectation to the United States
amounted to S7.SS1, AIS. Most of the ar
ticles brought to this country consist
of tablewares. the production of which,
according 10 Mr.. Pepper, is largely rep
resented by general organization
which not only fixes prices, but under
takes to control to some extent the re-
lations of the manufacturers and their
employees.
The wages of the Germany pottery
yvorl1men range from IS cents to S1-32
nor dav for adult male wOrkmen, while
women earn from $2.16 to 1874 per week.
Notwithstanding these modest wages
Mr.. Pepper estimated that labor repre-
sents 40 per cent of the cost of pottery
produced in Germany.
Too Much Protection.

tive duties imposed by the present. law.

TAFT's, BUSINESS POLICY,

In recent address before the Com
mercial Club of Cincinnati, Mr.. Taft
laid down his policy as to business
enterprises as follows. ...~ry
Every business man who is obey
ing the law may go ahead with all
the energy in his possession, every
enterprise which is obeying the stat
utes may proceed without fear of in
reference by the administration,
when acting legally; but all interests
within the jurisdiction of the Federal
Government may expect rigid en-
forcement of the laws against dis
honest Methods ~. ...
That policy will commend itself to
the mind of every honest and sens
ible man; for his prosperity depends
upon it's enforcement, The greatest
obstacle to the success of the honest
business man is the competition Of
dishonest rivals, whose methods he
despises sand has no inclination to fol-
low. A rigid enforcement of the law
against dishonest methods is just
what he needs and must have and it
is the proper function Of the govern
ment to protect him against such

WHAT FRAGILE MEANS,

To those good folks who are an
xious to know what the word FRAGILE
means, THE APPEAL would explain
that it means anything in the same
condition in which the Democratic
party now is.
The Washington Post says: "There
is no Democratic party left except at
the South; the South is the Demo.
cratic party. The destiny of the party
is in the keeping of that people. What
will the South do?"
In other words the party is worn
down to a frazzle, and there is no
hope Of it's redemption, except in the
elimination of the Old feudal, Bour.
bonish aristocracy, which has con.
trolled the section ever since recon.
struction. That process is going on !;
surely, but slowly, under the leader
ship of such outspoken men as Clark
Howell and Senator MacLaurin. The
South is beginning to see that her
worst enemies are those of her own
household.

Investigation showed that the nest.
which stretched from one wire to an

was built on hatpin, which touched
