Taking No Chances.

1T is rule to which good lawyers
usually adhere" says Philadelphia
attorney, "ncyer to tell more than one
knows. There was an instance IN
England not many years ago wherein
a lawyer carried the rule to the ex-

zone of the agents in Midland re
vision court objected to a person whose
name was on the register on the
ground that he was dead. The reyi-
sion attorney declined to accept the
assurance, however and demanded
conclusive testimony on the point
"The agent on the other side arose
and gave corroborative evidence as to
the deCease of the man in question.
But sir, how do You know the

came into sight the car rang with
cheers, in which Sugdcn's voice was
by no means the least yOciferous.
1t was pleasant to meet the reception
committee with their pompous formal
ity of welcoming speeches, which were
followed by the more genuine hand
clasps, 1t was still more pleasant to
make his way up the street and get
welcome on every hand, but through
it all Sugdcn was conscious of one lack
the absence of one person who alone
could make old home week a success
to him. For the first time he realized
that the week meant to him Elizabeth
had come.
AS he crossed the foamin% little riy
er that cut the town in two he remem-
bered the last time that he stood on
the span. lie and Elizabeth had lean
ed against the rail. watching the swirl
ing waters in the uncertain moonlight,
while gently she had put from her the
hopes that had risen in her breast and
had sent him on his way unfettered by
matrimonial promises. "If you really
want me you will come back for me
without a PROMISE" she had whisper
ed. 81 could not bear to think that l
was holding you back in your career,
Billy" He had protested and argued,
but the girl had steadfastly held TO her
point. She would not marry him-she
would not even consider an engage
ment. If he was to fight his way in
the world he must be left free.
He had failed then to perceive her
point of view. He had wanted her to
marry him and go with him in search
of career. When she had refused he
had flung himself away, and he had
not written. Now he knew that she
had been right. and he longed to tell
her so. There was a bureau of infor-
nation through which visitors might
locate their old friends, but the sweet
faced girl in charge of the registry
list shook her head rcgrctfully. We
tried to locate the Grantleys to reach
them with an announcement" she ex-
planned, "but they appear to have drop
ped from sight completely. | will
make n note of your address in case
we do locate them" Sugden thanked
her and went out feeling as though
after all his coming had been a mis-
take. He slipped into the opera house
to listen for awhile to the formal exer-
cises for the opening day, but he found
the Prosy oratory tiresome and soon

Billy Sugden read the pamphlet
first GlarinG line old Home Week"
TO the imprint of the "BlairSvilc Mer-
curry Job Print on the last page Of the
cover. Somehow the little booklet
seemed to have almost the value of
message from home. He could even
tell which part OF the text Carr the
editor of the Mercury, had written and
which portions were the product of the
Rev. John Dudley. the PreSby
minister, who has literary aspirations.
One paragraph in particular appeal
ed TO him. 1t ran, we have set date
later than most of the old home weeks
so that as we, the home StayerS. bring
to Il happy and prosperous conclusion
the harvest of the year so may the
hOmecomcrs bring with them the first
fruits Of their prosperity and their tai
ent."
Whoever had sent him the pamphlet
had UNDERSIGNED this paragraph and
Sugden felt with a glow of pride that
his new found fame had reached even
to the old home. 1t was only in the
last few months that lie had gained
the position as an illustrator for which
he had fought, and fame was still very
sweet to him. He could see visions of
the old home, the quiet, shady streets,
the trees now gorgeous in their autumn
nal tints, as he sat down and wrote Il
note of regret to the famous lion hunt
er who had sought to add him to her
collection at Newport for that week.
AS the train drew near the Old town
some weeks later he peered from the
windows as eagerly as a boy.

Case.

Judge Chichester, who is sitting in the
nearing of the Glasmann libel case yes
terday morning overruled the motion for
non-suit as to the defendant William
Glasmann. as moved for by the defense
on Thursday. A like motion with regard
TO the standard Publishing company was
also denied a short time later.
Following the ruling of these motions
Attorney FarnsWOrth made q brief OPEN
ing statement and Chief of Police II T..
browning was placed on the stand as the
1lrSt witness. A number of questions
arose during the examination and much
time was spent in hearing arguments
during which time the jury was excluded
from the room. Frank Francis, managing
editor of the GlaSmann paper was the
second witness for the defense and testi-
lied that the story in question was writ
ten by Phillips Spear, who was employed
as reporter on the paper at the time
and who is now "a fugitive from justice.
Mrs. Edith Freeze was the next witness.
She testified as TO what Olivia Lewis had
told her in the presence of Detective Pen
der at her home on the Saturday preced-
Ing the arrest of I. @. Richards She
said the girl had told her that her father
came home to dinner and assaulted her.
The details as told by the witness were

VIII Reach Great Depth.
AWAIT ATTORNEY BOOTH.
Authorities in Doubt as to Holders
of BOGUS Money.

United States District Attorney Booth
yesterday wired the local police depart
ment that he would reach Ogden today
from Denver and at once take I'D the
case of the bogus bank notes of the Mer-
chants & Planters Bank of Georgia IN
connection with which Charles Kelly and
Alfred FRANKIE were arrested on Thurs
day.
There seems to be some doubt as 10
whether or not the bills in question can
be called counterfeit money. Mr.. Booth
has requested the local authorities to en-
deaVor to convict the men under arrest
of obtaining money under false pretenses
rather than charge them with having
counterfeit money in their possession. In
response to a telegram sent to Chicago
as to the standing of Stevens & Co, from
whom the paper was secured, word was
received yesterday that the firm referred
to deals in cuTios and that the bills In
question are selling at 81 for 800 Nothing
more will be developed in the case until
after the arrival of District Attorney
Booth.

Talk About Bridge Again.

The members of the street committee OF
the city council and the mayor met with
the county commissioners at the county
building last evening and discussed the
matter of constructing a bridge across the
old channel of the Ogden river at the
mouth of Ogden canyon. The councilmen
presented proposition whereby the CITY
and county would jointly share the eX-
pense of the bridge, although its loca-
ton is within the city limits. The COM
mlss1oners favored the plan from the
viewpoint that residents of the county
would be benefited as much if not more
than the people of the city The cues
ton arose as to the legality of the plan,
and it was finally referred to Mayor
Brewer, Commissioner Frank Moore and
the city and county attorneys, who will
prepare report to be presented to both
parties at their meeting Monday night
IN the discussion it was brought out that
the cost of a steel bridge at this Doint
would be about $500. and cement struc-
be favored. SiS
