THE ONLY PROTECTION.

The enterprisng Yeggmen have given
another demonstration of the useless

eral thousand dollars. They did it early
in the evening within so. feet Of
crowded sidewalk. These instances
ought to serve as q warning TO those
who rely upon ordinary safes for pro.
lection for their valuables either In
their places of business or private
homes. A safety deposit vault is the
only place where these enterprsing
burglars cannot enter, for one never
hears of a safe deposit vault being
burglarized. In fact 1t would be folly
for a burglar to try 1t. Besides the fact
that these vaults are covered with layer

explosives have no effect and into which

over 1000 boxes which rent from $3.50

convenience of parties who are leaving

silverware, trunks, etc. 1t Is economy
as well as wisdom for every man or
woman to have an individual strong
box and the people of Salt Lake are
rapidly learning the lesson which has
been learned in other cities that safe
deposit boxes afford the only real pro-
lection.

STORK BROUGHT
Mr.. and Mrs. Coolbear Get a
Glad Surprise Left On
Front Porch.
GERMAN NOTE WITH THE BABE
Explaining That the Infant Was Born
On Feb. 20, and Its Mother
Was Deserted.

The old story Of the ring ON the
doorber, sourry of retreating foot
steps and glad surprise for the head
of the house was enacted at the resi-
dence of Mr. and Mrs Alvin Coolbear,
2bss south Seventh East street last
night.
II was 1880 p. m. when Mr.. Coolbear
was awakened by the sound of foot
steps on the porch As he was get
ting up to investigate the bell sounded
and he arrived at the front door too
late to get a glimpse of the figure
scusrying away through the darkness.
There was a bundle on nc porch and
he stepped gingerly forth to investi-
gate. The bundle appeared to be very
much alive. The next minute the head
OF the house was calling to his wife:
oh Mamma, see what the stork has
brought US
The stork apparently had delivered
a girl and pinned to its clothing was
note written in German. Translated it
read:
Dear Friend-1 am deserted poor,
sickly woman, and would like a good

lively YOU are gentleman and give

NEW ELIGIBILITY RULES
Separate Committees TO be Appointed
To Handle Athletic ana Literary
Activities mt the University.

That the eligibility rules for student
activities, both athletic and literary,
at the University of Utah are to I'M
dergo some radical changes Is evil
denced by the recommendations pre-
scented at the faculty meeting yesterday
afternoon by a committee of students
and instructors.
The plan provides for a committee
for athletics and a separate committee
for the literary activities both to con-
sst Of six members. two students and
four faculty. The latter to be selected
as follows; two by the president, one
by the students and one by ballot by
the faculty.
Tie rules demand that the student
must present a satisfactory record for
the previous semester wherever In
school and that he has never partici-
pated IN any professional competitions
and that his record during the year
shall be scrutinized April rs ana, Nov
L.. As an additional precaution list
of questions that would do credit to a
civil service examination is to be filled
out by each contestant as to his COM
plete record for the use of the commit
tee.
The rules as formulated have the
endorsement of the discipline commit
tee, the athletic council and the execu-
tive board of the student body who
have helped to formulate them and the
present sentiment seems to be that
they will be passed.
The former rules at the university
were found upon investigation TO COM
pare favorably with those in many
of the colleges but there were found
to be inadequate and the present
rules based upon experience here and
elsewhere are the result.
