BULLET PASSES
THROUGH JACKET
Husband Tries to Kill His Wife
but His Aim Is Dis
turbed.

As the result of family quarTels last
ing over a period of several months, c.
n. Place made a desperate attempt to
murder his wife last night at about
1880 o'clock in front of their home in
the rear of No. 339 Earls court, which
connects Third South and Fourth
South streets, between Fourth East
and Fifth East streets.
After firing at his wife, Place fed
and eluded the police last night. A bull
let hole through his wife's jacket tells
the mute story of her narrow escape
from death.
About a week ago Place left his home,
telling his wife she could have all the
furniture and he would live apart from
her This was the elimination of a
series of Quarrels which had become
neighborhood gossip. Last night. how
ever, the husband returned and an
other quarrel started. He and his wife
were standing in front of their small
residence when Place pulled a revolver
from his pocket and told his wife he
would kill her.
With a quick movement the wife
flung out her hand and pushed the muz-
zle of the gun away from her breast
just as her husband pulled the trigger.
Scared by the explosion, the woman
staggered back and Place turned and
fled The husbands aim had not been
destroyed any too soon, for the bullet
tore through his wife's jacket, but did
not touch the body.
The patrol wagon ives sent to the
scene at once, but Place had gone and
could not be found. His wife went to
an uptown rOoming house last night

Il NEW TYPHOID
CASES REPORTED
Health Commissioner Still In
active Notwithstanding Ser
iOuSneSS of Epidemic.
AUTHORITIES ARE PUZZLED
EMBARGO ON DAiRiEe FAILS TO
CHECK DISEASE.

There is no diminution in the num-
Der of typhoid cases reported to the city
board of health. and the officials are
still absolutely at sea. They are con-
WINGED that the source was in the milk
from three Woods Cross diaries, but
now that this supply has been stopped,
it is puzzling to see the cases come in
without abatement.
Eleven cases were reported Saturday
and, like the other cases, they are in
the east of northeastern parts of the
city. New cases reported yesterday are:
Emma Gundman, 6 years old, 1865
Twelfth East street.
Inez and Annie Leffler, twins, p years
old, $50 Lake street,
Grace Evans, Is years old, ia B
street.
J. H. Dell, So years old, 444 South
West Temple street.
Sophia Backman, % years. old, AIS
Third avenue
f. S. Norris, 81 years old, of Boise, at
L. D. S. hospital
David W. Jones, years old, 227 West
First South street
Johanna Salmon, 80 years old, 2S7 B
street.
W. A. Hanna, 40 years old, of Denver,
at L. D. S. hospital.
Wood Dorothy, years Old 242 Sec
Ond East street.
These make a total OF 1877 for the
month thus far. There have been seven
deaths. DR.. NJ. r. Stewart city health
physician, has hardly turned a hand in
the fight against the epidemic since it
broke out more than a week ago, and
the fact that two other city health de-
partment officials have been i'll for three
days, has crippled the fighting force
greatly. In spite Of this fact, DR.. Stew
art has made no effort upon his own
part, and has not yet traced down one
single case of typhoid to learn its
source.
He has not visited the dairies at
Woods Cross, nor has he made any at
tempt to check the fever. The only
thing he has done was to address a
meeting Of supervisors and principals
of the city schools early last week, tell
Ing them Of ways to combat typhoid.
and that lecture was given at the ear
nest solicitation Of Superintendent D. H.
Christensen.
There were 101 new cases Of typhoid
reported last week, as against fifty for
the week previous, making a total of
Isl for the two weeks. This is shown
In the health report for the week which
closed Friday. According to the report.
there were 106 cases of CONTAGIOUS dis
eases yesterday. Of this number two
were smallpox, 101 typhoid fever, one
diphtheria, one scarlet fever and one
chickenpOX. Last week there were ff-
ty-five Outrageous cases.
During the week thirteen boys and
eleven girls were born. There were
twenty-five deaths. Six bodies were
brought to Salt Lake for burial.
