HARRY GRIFFITH
REMAINS SILENT
Friends Anxious About Su-
preme Court Clerk Whose
Leave Expired Sept. II.

Friends Of Harry W. Griffith are at a
loss 10 account for his long absence and
his still longer silence. Mr. Griffith is
clerk of the supreme court of this state,
which place he has held with credit to
himself ana with entire satisfaction to
the justices
AT the beginning of September. the court
gave MIR. Griffith vacation. II was I'M
derstood that he was to be in Salt Lake
again on Sept. y. when u special session
or the court was to have been held lie
was not here at that time.
Inquiry develops the fact that Montague
Roberts, a court reporter at Provo, re-
ceived a letter from Griffith dated Los
Angeles. in which il was stated that the
writer was, AT the time of writing, i'll in
= hospital In that city. Dispatches from
Los Angeles to the office Of The Herald
are to the effect that Griffith is at none
OF the hospitals there. Teiegraphic ad
vices from San Francisco are OF similar
import.
Joseph +. Frick, associate justice Of the
supreme court, said yesterday that he and
his associates awaited word from Mr..
Griffith, and that they were trying TO
get word of him.
1t Is possible that he is i'll somewhere"
said Judge Prick. I'VE shall doubtless
hear something about him in few days.
Mr.. Griffith, in addition TO being clerk
of the supreme court, is librarian of the
law library of Utah. He resides at "A
South State street.

TO REFORM AGREEMENT.
Action Instituted to Straighten Out
Alleged Misunderstanding.

An action was brought in the district
court yesterday by w NJ. Rash and the
Rash-Roylance company against the H.
l.. Griffin company. The prayer of the
plaintiff is that an agreement entered
into between the two interests now par
ties to the action be construed or re-
formed as to render its meaning in ac-
cordance with that which the plaintiff
says it was intended to mean.
Last January the plaintiff and the de-
PENDANT, it is alleged. entered into an
agreement whereby the Griffin company.
in consideration of 5000, should refrain
from buying, selling or soliciting orders
for fruit grown in Bannock county. Ida.
So worded was the document that the
Griffin company evidently thought that
the Rash-Roylance company was the ex
cluded party. and therefore went ahead
with its business. There is now a suit
pending in the Idaho courts to prevent
the plaintiff in the present case from do
ing the business in BannOck county to
which particular reference is made. The
plaintiffs in this case deny the right OF
the defendants to sue, and ask that they
be given the right to sell in BannOck
county, and a good many more things of
similar nature.

Even with this liberal offer, F. c..

a very small percentage, because the
eight incurable dyspeptics will find so
much relief in Mi-o-na that they will
once again look upon the sunny side
of life and will continue to use Mi

Now. reader. you may say how can
the makers of Mi-o-na make such an
offer? How do they know that 90 per
cent of the users will be cured and
that the other s per cent, or the incur
ables, will be relieved?
Why, it's all very simple We've
made this same offer in 1000 towns

ing by Mr. Van Cott deposed that he
had agreed to remove from the family
residence at 1874 West South Temple
much against his inclination. He as
serted that the reason for the removal
lay in the visitors who called upon
pected to retire to his downy couch at
$3.50 p. m. while Mrs. Farrar and the
visitors often sat up till after midnight
He also said that a number of Mrs
Farrar'S relatives had come to regard
him as their meal ticket, and that Mrs
Farrar never missed a chance of ac-
cusing him of infidelity. He asserted
that these accuse tons so wrought upon
his mind that he felt compelled to leave
the house some five weeks ago, and
that when he mentioned his determine
ton, Mrs. Farrar responded with the
chorus of that well known ballad,

the rent and alimOny, provided he could
live in the house, but that he was not
in financial condition to pay the rent
If he were compelled to seek shelter
elsewhere.
Mr.. Farrar. when questioned as to
the whOlesomeness of the provisions
furnished his wife and children, stated
that they were as wholesome as those
furnished his other customers, but re-
fused to commit himself further He
also stated that during the month of
September he had paid to his wife two
checks. one for $3.50 and one for $40,
s30.S5 worth of groceries and so cents
in cash.

Judge Morse then announced that the
action of the unhappy couple in at
tempting to settle their differences out

suit He then recalled Mrs Farrar and
asked how many rooms there were in
the house where she is now living Mrs
t'arrar stated that the house contained
five rOo.Hs, that there were but four in
the family beside Mr.. Farrar, but that
she would never consent to a man of
Mr. Farrar's disposition inhabiting the
same house with her. She then made
another desperate effort to detail the
misdeedS Of her husband to the court,
but was sternly checked by the judge,
who felt thai he was entitled to some
protection.
Judge Morse then ordered that Mr..
Farrar be not in contempt of court,
that he continue to pay $50 per month
alimOny. that he pay $25 per month of
the rent of the house in Delmore ave-
nue. until the family home at 154 West

But she gets there just the same.
Jane Doe walked into police head
quarters last night and arrested herself.
She started in by demanding that Patrol
man Denny Sullivan hand over his star.
When Denny refused, she walked up to
the desk, and attempted to flirt with Desk
Sergeant LenZi. LenZi spUrned her at
tentions and she turned on her heel and
attempted to walk majestically out Of the
station. She would have fallen had not
Sullivan put his arm around her waist.
She evidently thought he was asking her
for the first waltz, and she and Sullivan
pirouetted TO the drunk house without
any further trouble.
Jane Doe is in the habit of getting
drunk at regular intervals. When she
decides that she has had enough, she
walks into the police station and gets a
nights lodging without asking for il.
She will not give her name to the desk
sergeant, without an introduction, so she
figures on the blOtter as Jane Doe. She is
the life of the drunk house, much to the
disquiet of the rest of the inmates. who
are unable TO get a good nights sleep.
