TRUAHTs OUT OF SCHOOL
Three Girls and Three Boys Not Per-
mitted to Re-enter
This Term

AS a result of a truancy pact carried
out by students at the Ogden High school
on Friday last. three girls and nine boys
who were pupils at the institution are no
longer upon the official roll of the
school. The three girls were members of
the senior class and would likely have
graduated this spring. The nine boys
were all members of the Junior class. The
seniors are Florence Cooney, Lucille Doug
las and Leland Carlson. and the junior
truants are Dewitt Stoddard, Dan Rob-
erts, Fred Johnson, Carl Clark, Roy Bas
sett Irving Pugh, Royal Douglas, Lila
Lundy, Marguerite Hamile, Ruby Herdti
and Allie Gunnell.
Yesterday the twelve students returned
to school. but admittance was refused
them. They asked Principal Cloyd the
reason therefor and were advised that by
remaining away from school without
cause they had voluntarily withdrawn for
the present term. They also received the
further information that no new students
would be enrolled for the present term.
Principal Cloyd said yesterday that it
was doubtful the students could be re-
instated, as the records show they yolun-
tarily withdrew from the term and there
is no way to re-enroll them before the be-
ginning of the next term.

HE WAS NOT ARRESTED.
Instead, j. w. Mckenna Forces Pc.
lice to Treat All Alike.

The report given out yesterday that J.
w. McKenna, proprietor of the Blue Rib
bon saloon, had been arrested on Sunday
for keeping open the cigar stand part of
the place is now declared to have been
erroneous.
McKenna, assuming that he had the
same right as other places which have a
restaurant in connection with a bar,
opened his cigar stand on Sunday. Chief
Browning and Police Captain Brown
called at the Blue Ribbon during Sunday
afternoon and insisted that he close the
place. McKenna asserted his rights, stat
ing that he had conferred with the city
attorney before opening his cigar stand
and demanded that other places of a like
nature close. He gained his point, and
while he was compelled to close, the
other places named above were also in
structed to refrain from selling cigars on
Sunday.
Chief Browning took the matter up with
the mayor yesterday and Mr. Brewer
stated positively that saloonmen having
cigar stores in the front end of their
places of business, as most of them have,
must not take advantage of this fact to
keep their doors open on Sundays.
Whether or not the matter will rest here
is not yet definitely determined.

FINAL BILL OF AUDITORS SHOWS
THEY WORKED CITY PERSISTENTLY

H. G. Ambrose, the chief accountant, also
worked" a similar period, drawing 50
for seven hours work, and four of the as
sistants worked also 112 hours. The total
bill for this period is 81, 324D
The bills for each succeeding fifteen-day
period show a decrease until the bill for
the period of fifteen days ending March
81, when only $3.50 is charged.
1t is understood that this is the final
bill to be presented to the city and that
the last preliminary report submitted
by the auditors is the last one that will
be issued.
As nobody knows anything more about
the financial condition of the city than
was known before the auditors began
work. but few are able to say that the
$1,000 expenditure was justified
The original appropriation for the work
was but 5000 Councilman Fernstrom
said: THE city would have been ahead
if it had paid them 5000 for leaving the
city and then giving some competent local
man another 5000 for doing the work as
it should have been done"
The bills went TO the finance commit
tee.

New York, April "a disagreement
between Katherine c. Gould and her
husband, Howard Gould, as to whether
Mrs. Gould's suit for separation should
be heard before a jury or a justice of
the supreme court became evident To-
day. Counsel for Mrs. Gould applied to
Justice Bowling for a framing of the
issues in the case so that the action
would be heard by a jury. This was
opposed by Mr.. Gould's counsel, who
asserted that. the allegations of Mrs
Gould were not such as should be sub

court. Justice Bowling reserved de-
ciSiOn.
