half a dozen enraged section men, who

cause of reduction in their wages and
who seemed determined 10 take it out
of the pumpman. With the assistance
of a small sized gun Mullins succeeded
in standing the gang off until he could
summon assistance from ! Goldfield.
Two deputy sheriffs responded to the
hurry-up call and arrested the men.

the resignation of Surveyor General

able. The committee declared no
emergency existed as the state now en-
joys a 2-cent fare, and that such law
would injure the credit and finances Of
the railroads in their role of large Dor
rowers. The measure probably will not
come up again this session.

Witnesses From Abroad.

Mr.. Littleton may continue with ex-
pert testimony tomorrow, or he may
offer as witnesses the doctors from
Rome, Paris and London who are to
testify briefly of attending Thaw in
those cities. Another doctor is expect
ed to testify about an outbreak on a
train, and that will end all save the ex-
pert testimony.
Today the codicil of Thaw's will was
placed in evidence, but the will itself
was temporarily ruled out because of
the insufficiency of evidence showing
its custody since 1905. Mr.. Littleton
said that he would supply this tomor-
row or Friday.

may have been Occasioned by a warn
ing that he would be roughly handled
if he put in his appearance. Mrs.
Evans was very popular in Lehi, as,
indeed, wherever she was known. And
the indignation over her reported
treatment by DIR. Tanner ran high.
Those who are familiar with the case
say that the will cannot be made to
stand, that to put a debtor 20 an estate
in charge of that estate as admins
traitor without bond would be an I'M
heard-of proceeding. They say, fur
Their, that DIR. Tanner could not be- de-
vised the guardianship of the children
because they had never been legally
adopted by Mrs. Evans. And, how
ever that may be, the children are row
out of DR.. Tanners custody. They are
living with relatives in Lehi
Denies the Marriage.
DR.. Tanner was reached over the tel
ephone by The Herald last night. In
answer to an inquiry as II whether or
not Mrs. Evans was his plural wife he
said:
Il deny the story absolutely. There
is not a word of truth in il
Dr. Tanner, responding 10 another
inquiry, declared that he did not be-
lieve any attempt would be made to
contest Mrs. Evans will.
The fact remains, however, that Mrs.
Evans relatives believe she was the
plural wife of DR.. Tanner; they believe
that he induced her, on one qretext
and another, to turn over to his keep
ing practically her entire estate. They
believe that DIR. Tanner was RESPONSE
BILE for Mrs. Evans great distress of
mind just prior to and during her last
illness, and they believe that she was
unduly influenced by him in the max
ing of her viii.
DR.. J. NJ. Tanner has long been re
garded as one of the most. open and
fragrant polygamists in Utah. He was
depOsed from his high position in the
Mormon church because of his per-
sistence in entering and re-enterIng
the plural marriage relation Before
that time he was forced from the
presidency of the Agricultural college
it was said at the time, on account of
his active practice of poiygaray.

THAW WILL SOON
KNOW HIS FATE
Anthony ComStoCk'S Story of
Appeal of Defendant to Him
Told on Stand.

New York, Jan. 22.-The end of the
second Thaw trial is fast approaching.
This was indicated late today when DR..
Charles G. Wagner, the first Of the
alienists to be called by the defense,
took the stand for his preliminary ex-
animation. Anthony Comstock, vice
president of the Society for the Sup
preston Of Vice, had been heard as a
witness earlier in the day, and Mrs.
William Thaw. mother of the defend
ant, had completed her testimony. The
kindergarten teacher who had charge
of Harry Thaw as a lad of 6, also testi-
fled, and the day marked a long stride
toward the conclusion of the celebrated
case

Mother Again on the Stand.

Mrs. William Thaw, still unable to
walk unassisted because of her recent
illness, was not long upon the stand.
She told of Thaw's early life, of influ-
ences before his birth and of the mental
unsoundness of two of her brothers.
She was not cross-eXamined. Mr..
Jerome contented himself with reading
to the jurors the affidavit made by the
elder Mrs. Thaw last year when the
question of her sons sanity was before
lunacy commission. In that affidavit
she declared that in the direct line of
descendent there had been no insanity
in Harry Thaw's family for four gen.
erations. AS to the collateral cases,
Mrs Thaw said in the affidavit there
were but two and they were easily ac-
counted for. In her statement to the
commission, Mrs. Thaw also resented
the insinuations which she said she had
been compelled to suffer because of the
newspaper reports of insanity in the
family. and she asserted that there were
no family secrets to hide and there was
no skeleton to be barred.

Commstock's Testimony.

Mr.. Comstoek's testimony, while new,
had been discounted by the known facts
of Thaw's appeal to him to assist in
closing up the houses where Stanford
White was alleged to have maintained
deliberately furnished apartments and
where young girls were said to have
been mistreated. A dozen letters Thaw
wrote to COmstock regarding the mat
ter, giving a detailed description of the
Twenty-fourth street house, were ad-
mitted in evidence and read to the jury.
District Attorney Jerome seemed as
pleased as the defense with the letters,
and later in the day read into the rec
ord himself most of Mr.. Comstock's re-
plies to Thaw. The witness indicated
in his testimony that nothing ever
came of the complaints, legal evidence
being lacking.

VIII Hold Lake or Die.

Union City, Tenn, July 23.-There
is considerable anxiety and uneasiness
about Reelfoot Lake OF late. Judge
Harris and the West Tennessee Reel
foot Land company have recently
caused an injunction to be served up
on certain parties fishing on the lake,
and Harris. 1t is said. is building an
other fish dock on the lake and has
offered an extraordinary salary for
some party who will go there and run
II. but he has not been able to get
any one who will undertake the job.
There has been considerable trouble
about the lake, and It is feared that
the night riders will put into execu-
ton their threats. A few nights
since the Lake county authorities
came over into Obion county and ar
rested one Of the supposed night
riders, and Immediately there fol
lowed about foo men, who demanded
his release on bond, which was done
and they took him back home, Judge
Harris. so reports have it, says that
he will not give the lake over to any
one, and that all they can do is &c
kill him. Just where this. matter on
the lake will end there is no telling.

DR.. Ed p. Farley, city meat, milk
and livestock inspector, has prepared
la score card by which to rate the
Paducah diaries so that the citizens
may tell at a glance the condition OF
the buildings of the dairymen. Such
a score card is Kept In all of the cities
and DR.. Farley has taken his points
from the inspectors OF louisville and
other cities in the state. II is arranged
so that the condition of the COWS
scores 20 per cent; the cleanliness of
the stables 20 per cent; the cleanli-
ness of the milk house 10 per cent;
the milking 20 per cent. and the care
in handling the milk counts for Is
per cent. Any dairyman with a per
cent of SO or over is rated as excel
lent. and down TO IS the dairy is con-
sidered good. A dairy with a per-
centage of G5 may be considered fair,
but below 40 per cent is poor. Mr..
Farley believes the score card will be
OF value to the citizens, as with
proper arrangement the cleanliness
and healthfulness Of the milk may be
noted by anyone.
The score card is: Cows-condi-
