Dope from the Police Court

How TO run, though drunk, was eX
planned to Judge ]. NJ. Bowman in the
police court on Monday afternoon by j..
j.. Haynes, who was the ''whole
cheese for a few minutes on the West
Side Rapid Transit company while his
brother, NJ. S. Haynes, the real super
inteudcnt, was out of town on Sunday
Haynes was lured from the lone car of
the line, which runs from First West
and Second South to Cannon ward, by
a Rhine maiden who lured him to the
side of keg Of beer in grove near
Tenth West and Sixth South streets
'' Your honor, ! was running this car
Yesterday until they run me off of it, -
Haynes said in explanation of his run.
"Do you have to get drunk to runIi
the Judge asked.
"Thcy got me drunk before they got
me TO running was the artless reply
IT developed that when the pick.
nicl1ers once got Haynes TO running
they ran him through an irrigated canal
and three blocks across the dusty prairie
in his wet clothes. Then. fearful that
he might be overtakcn, he pushed a boy
from bicycle and rode until he fell
exhausted where the police patrol wa
gon found him.
Judge Bowman thought that Haynes
had suffered enough punishment in his
run, so he discharged him.
Until o:l3:17 clock Monday aft
ernoon, James Clayton thought that Salt
Lake City ordinances were Just as easy
as those of his homo town Of Provo.
Then he found out that ii costs So TO
ride n bicycle on the sidewalks of this
city, even If in Provo nobody seems to
care. When arraigned on a charge of
riding on the sidewalk on Seventh
South street between Main and West
Temple, Clayton pleaded that he sup
posed they did things in Salt Lake City
like they did in Provo, where bcy.

According to a report submitted
to the county commissioners yes

From November l to February

thought Hines had the ball, to go

'In the excitement. with every

gave him a shove which landed
him on his back and continued to

Hines had secured the ball by
this time, but seeing one man

FIND HEAD OF
MISSING MAN

PENDLETON, Or, Feb. 27.-A
fresh searching partly left Hermis-
ton today in the hope that 1t
would be more successful in look
ing for the body of Ephriam He'd
berg, the Wisconsin farmer, whose
head was found in the sage brush
near here Thursday night.
While the head Is little more
than skull, there is no doubt
here that it was that of the miss
ing farmer.
The authorities are now work
ing on the theory that he was
murdered for his money, as 1t is
known he carried several hun
dred dollars. Hedberg was on
his way from his farm in Wiscon-
sin to visit relatives when he dis
appeared. He stepped from the
train at Hermiston, but never re-
turned to it.
