HUSBAND NOT LOST
Nary Hears From John in Denver

After vain search for her husband,
Mrs. Mary Smith of this city has re-
ceived word from her husband from
Denver, where he has been for the past
ten days, while distracted wife anx-
iously tried to obtain information of his
whereabouts. Mrs. Smith last night
received the following telegram: Mary
Meet me at the Fountain, at midnight
hotel, Denver-Great Show
John.
Mrs. Smith was much mystified and
soon got into communication with her
husband by telephone. Mr.. Smith ex-
planned to his wife over the wire that
he had such good time in Denver that
he did not remember to write. He is
stopping at the Albany and said there
was something going on every minute.
Said it looked better to him than the
Waldorf and his wife must hurry and
join him. Mrs. Smith says she will
leave tonight and will meet John, as he
proposed, at the fountain of the Albany
at midnight.

How to Cure Cola

Be as careful as you can you will occa-
sionally take cold and when you do, get
a medicine Of known reliability, one
that has an established reputation and
that is certain to effect quick cure.
Such a medicine is Chamberlain's cough
remedy. 1t has gained world wide
reputation by its remarkable cures OF
this most common ailment, and can
always be depended upon. 1t acts on
natures plan, relieves the lungs, aids
expectoration, opens the secretions and
aid nature in restoring the system to a
healthy condition. During the many
years in which it has been in general use
we have yet to learn Of single case of
cold or attack OF the grip having resulted
in pneumonia when this remedy was
used, which shows conclusively that it is
a certain preventive OF that dangerous
disease. Chamberlain's cough remedy
contains no opium or other narcotic and
may be given as confidently to baby
as to an adult. For sale by Fred Long.

POLICE USE CAN OPENER AND SCISSORS
In SOLVING MYSTERY OF NIGHT PROWLER

Here's the burglar" shouted Ser
geant johnson, dashing forward at dou-
BILE quick.
A piteOus spectacle met his eye. A
large black cat stood by the shed with
his Tor herr head covered with a salmon
can. The cat had apparently found the
can when freshly thrown from some
kitchen. The smell of fish caused him
Tor herr to thrust his Cor herr head into
the can. 1t was small can, and when
the cats head was inside no power that
the cat possessed could remove it,
For that reason, the cat had wandered
through the neighborhood, humping his
Cor herr imprisoned head against doors,
to the CONSERVATION of peaceful citizens,
who were awakened from their slumber
by the sounds.
The policemen obtained a can opener
from AndersOn's store and tried to re-
move the can from the cats head. Fail
ing in this, they borrowed a pair of
scissors. After much effort the can was
taken off and the grateful tom or pussy,
whichever it was, wandered off into the
darkness, musically proclaiming the eff
ficiency of the Salt Lake police depart
ment.
1t is now suspected that the liberated
cat may have had something to do with
the other burglar scares in the neigh
borhood.

Three times a night prowler visited
the grocery store of G. A. Anderson, at
227 West First South street. But on
the third visit, he was captured by the
police. Until he was seized, there was
intense uneasiness in the leighborhood,
for everybody was apprehensive of re-
ceiving a call from the nocturnal Wis
itor. When it was reported yesterday
that he had fallen into the hands of the
police there was general feeling of re-
lief
The police were informed early yes
terday morning that the prowlers was
for the third time at the door of Ander-
sons store. The patrol wagon was hur-
ried to the place, bearing Sergeant
Johnson and two policemen, Seager and
H. D.NLyon. Darkness shrouded the
grocery. Policeman Lyon was left
standing guard with drawn revolver
in front of the place. while Sergeant
johnson and Policeman Seager went to
the rear.
A careful search was made for the
prowler, but at first no sign of him
was discovered. Then Policeman Sea-
ger heard a noise, coming from the di-
rection of a small shed. back of the
store. He advanced, throwing the light
from his dark lantern ahead of him. At
the side of the shed, he found the mis-
creant crouching.

SUSPECTS PHOTO
RAISES A DOUBT
PaWnbroker Unable to identify
Picture as That of Dia-
mOnd Thief.

There is some doubt that the man now
under arrest in Chicago is Abe Fem
berg. the clerk who disappeared from
the New York loan office, 46 East Sec
ond South street, with $500 worth of
diamonds and other jewelTy. Pictures
of the Chicago suspect were received
Yesterday at police headquarters. These
were shown to persons who knew Fem
berg, but none of them could identify
them as likenesses of the runaway
clerk s. Salmenson, proprietor of the
loan office, said that the photographs
looked like Feinberg, but that the re
semblance was not sufficiently strong
for him to make a positive identifica-
ton.
In the letter from the Chicago police,
which accompanied the photographs. it
was explained that the authorities there
could not lawfully photograph the sus-
pect, and for that reason were forced
to send pictures that were taken several
years ago.
1t was also said that the suspect
calls himself Nose Feinberg, and that
he has fOurteen-year-Old brother who
is known as Abe Feinberg.
The police here think that Feinberg
may have used his younger brothers
name while in Salt Lake and resumed
his right name after reaching Chicago.
Chief Pitt has wired CODY Geiger,
who is now in Chicago, to go to see the
suspect under arrest there and settle
all question whether the man is or is
not Feinberg. Geiger knew Feinberg
while the clerk was here.
If Geiger reports that the suspect is
the fugitive clerk. detective viii be
sent to Chicago to bring back the al
legged diamond thief.

The Chinese New YeaR is more than
a celebration. Before the opening of
the year every Chinese, merchant or
labOrer, is expected to pay his debts
or make some satisfactory arrange
ment with his crtditors. The little slips
of red paper pasted upon the door
posts of Chinese abodes tell the story
of how far the occupants have been
successful in meeting these obligations
and observing other duties which go
toward giving a child of the Orient
standing among his kind.
a Chinese who neglects to show the
right New Years spirit gets no red
paper to paste upon his door post, and
consequently is in danger of ostracism
from the gathering places of his coun-
trymen.
Nearly all the members of the Salt
Lake colony of Chinese are men. There
are about six Chinese women here
Most of these are jealousy hidden
away in the houses inhabited by the
Chinese. A few of the Chinese have
white wives and the remainder are
bachelors.

DIN OF FIRECRACKERS AND TOM-TOMS
USHERS IN THE CHINESE NEW YEAR

The Chinese New Year began yes
terday morning. Although there are
less than 200 Chinese in Salt Lake, the
rejoicing Mongolians made noise suffi-
cient for 1000 All of the Chinese
houses in Plum alley and in CONNER
cial street were decorated for the cele-
Wation, and lavish hospitality was dis
played to those who called to wish the
yellow men good luck and a prosperous
year.
Soon after midnight the Chinese he
gan to explode firecrackers. Many
punches of the noisiest sort of fire
crackers were set off at one time, and
the din was terrific Residents of the
tenderloin, of which Chinatown is a
part, at the sound of the first explo-
sions imagined that some terrible
shooting scrape was in progress. and
the resorts emptied into the streets.
Then, as there was no prospect of
slumber in that neighborhood, all hands
stood by and watched the Chinese have
fun. The beating of tom-toms and OBJ
servance of religious ceremonies fol-
lowed.
