permitted by Judge Armstrong TO as-
sumo her maiden name, Mabel Mitchell

after testimony given by Mrs. Brisgs

The charges fled by the plaintiff in
this case We're somewhat sensational.
II was alleged that Briggs had often
called his wife vile names, and that
finally he went away. From River
side. Cal, he wrote TO friends in this
city, and in one letter he said, cou-
corning his wife, tell her to go to h
for me- In another letter he wrote:
Tell my intended wife ! love her Just
the same; Amanda. | mean"
Mrs. Briggs did not know Amanda's
true and full name, and in the COM
plant refers TO her as Amanda or
Emma Doe and declares that the SAID
person was in the habit of receiving
loving missives from Mr.. Briggs, dated
at the California city mentioned.

SPLENDID CROPS.


Crop conditions locally never looked
better. Grain will start to move in
few days. The fruit crop from Utah
valley is already on the move, while
that of Brigham, Ogden and Bear
River valley will soon be ready for
shipment. Provo win require fully 800
cars TO move her fruit crop, while the
Weber and Boxelder localities will use
800 or more All this business requires
equipment to be on hand just the
minute the fruit Is ready" continued
the official. "and require prompt at
tention on the part of the railroad.
IDAHO TO THE FRONT.
Idaho is also coming to the front as
a shipper. Car after car of oats are
now being shipped from Boise TO Bos-
ton, and other eastern markets, which
shows that Idaho's products are sec.
ond to none in the country. Her fruit
crop Is also an item to reckon with.
Payette valley cantaloupcs are now
going out in car lots. and the peach
and prune and apple shipments from

by city health officers that the pres
cit city hall is not a fiji place for the

The city health officer states that
in his opinion the city hall is ex-

ist. He has reported on this matter
before, but his reports Lave resulted
in no good, and consequently he has
cut out what he calls waste of
