Demented Austrian Proves Trouble.
some Upon Being Removed From
the Gountv Jail

Virginia Bonvicin. the demented Aus
TRAN who was found in Sixth South
street, between Tenth and Eleventh East
streets, by Detective SchulZe on last Tues
day. was committed to the state insane
asylum at Provo by Judge Armstrong
yesterday.
When Bonvicin was taken from the
county jail yesterday afternoon by Dep
uty Sheriffs Sharp and Steele. he did not
want to accompany his custodians and
chung TO every object upon which he
could get his hands. This proved so
troublesome that the deputy sheriffs
handcuffed him, although he was not VIC
lent. He then refused to walk and at
last threw himself prone upon the side
walk. The actions of the demented man
attracted a crowd.
The deputy sheriffs sent for a hack, not
being willing to drag their charge to
Judge Armstrong; court
On Wednesday evening, while BonYicin
was confined in sthe city jail, Jailer Rip
ley carelessly left the insane mans door
open. Seeing the open door. the unfor-
tunate Austrian walked into the corridor
There he was seized by aJiler Ripley and
several TRUSTEES and thrown back into
his cell.
The deranged man then commenced yell
ing for the jailer to open the door. He
made so much noise that Chief of Police
Pitt had him taken to the county Jail,
where there are better arrangements than
in the city Jail for the handling of de-
mented persons.

BUTCHERS ARE
FOUND GUILTY
Radon & Williams Convicted
of Maintaining Unsanitary
Slaughter House.
OTHERS ARE STILL WORSE
SMITH PREPARING TO LET OF
TENDERS GO FREE.

AFTER hearing the evidence against Rad
don Williams. the butchers charged
with maintaining an unsanitary slaughter
Smith yesterday found the butchers guilty
and set May IL as the day on which he
will pronounce sentence.
The complaint against the butchers was
made by State Food and Dairy Commits
sloner John Peterson. Mr.. Peterson testi-
fled that he had made a number of Wis
its to the Radon & Williams slaughter
mouse and had demanded that improve
ments be made. His demands. he said,
were disregarded.
DR.. F. E. Murray. a government in
spector, stated that he had examined the
slaughter house and found it unsanitary.
He said that ne had found other sIaugh-
ter houses in the vicinity of Salt Lake
in a worse condition than that of Radon
house in or near Salt Lake, he said, that
was properly conducted.
Stanley A. Hanks testified that he had
examined the Radon G. Williams slaugh-
ter house and had found it in an unsani-
tary condition.
that his firm had spent between $500 and
$500 in making improvements in the
slaughter house complained of. He said
that the firm was eXerting every effort
TO comply with he law. He declared that
he and Mr.. Radon were DESTROYS of keep
ing their slaughter house in a sanitary
condition.
Justice Smith explained to the butch
ers what was required of them for the
safeguarding of the public health. He In
timated that if the butchers are able to
put their slaughter house in a condition
that will meet the approval of Commits
sioner Peterson they may escape being
fined.

size could exist, it would be capable of sup
porting a weight of seventy-four tons-that
is to say, its strength would be half as great
again as that of steel, or nearly three times
that of wrought iron.
The web of the house spider differs from
that of the garden variety in two points. Its
mesh is much finer, and it is composed of
one kind of silk only. The flies which find
their way into it are detained by the entan-
clement of their claws IN the fine meshes.
The house spider, as rule, makes its
snares in the corner of the room. Its first
operation is to press its spinners against the
wall, thus securing the threads in a particu-
lar spot then it goes to the opposite side,
and fastens the other end of the thread.
This primary line is strengthened by two
or three others being run along beside it..
Threads are drawn from it in various direc-
tions, and the interstices are filled by the
spiders running backwards and forwards, al
ways leaving a line behind It.
In one corner of the completed web tubA
is made, in which the spider conceals itself
and waits for the appearance of unwary flies.
Ii is not surprising that so uncanny.look-
ing creature the subject of this sketch
should have various attributes of more or
less surprising nature awarded to it. In rural
districts it IS no uncommon occurrence to
find that there is firm belief in the curative
powers of spiders in cases OF ague.
Eeazar Albin says that he has been instru-
mental in curing several children of this com
plant 'by hanging large spider, confined
in a box, about their necks, reaching to the
pit of the stomach, without giving any inter
nal remedies"
This superstition is made use of by Long

have bestowed more than the most cursory
attention on these clever creatures.
To begin with, it may be stated that the
spider is not an insect, though probably nine
people out of ten would class it under this
term. With scorpions and mites, spiders form
a class in the animal kingdom known as the
Arachnida.
This name is derived from a mythical per-
scnage called Arachne, the daughter of a
purple-dyer of Lydia, who was tabled to
have challenged Minerva to a trial of skill in
spinning.
So indignant was the goddess at this act of
boldness that she forthwith transformed the
hapless challenger into a spider, presumably
in order that she might have the best possible
opportunity of practicing the art on which
she prided herself so much.
Spiders differ from insects in five main par
ticulars. Their eyes are simple instead Of
compound; they have eight legs in place of
six; they do not pass through the metamor-
phosis which are Characteristic of insects.
they have no antennae, and their breathing is
accomplished by means of organs which COM
bine the functions of lungs and gils, instead
of by tubes pervading their bodies. These
points of distinction are sufficient to deter
mine the fact that it is impossible to class
spiders as insects.
The strength of the spider silk is incredi-
Bile. Size for size it is considerably toughef
than a bar of steel. An ordinary spiders
thread is capable of bearing weight of three
grains, while steel thread of the same thick
ness would support less than two
A bar of steel one inch in diameter will
bear a weight of fifty tons, but it is ca1cu-

Humbled, penitent, flushed with shame, his
