CLUE FROM POLICE RECORDS
Judge C. NJ. Nielsen Makes Search for
Lost Father and Traces Him
Through His Arrest.

II was indeed a sad Christmas spent
by Mrs. Joseph Larson and her nine
children. They came here In December
with tho intention of spending the hol-
days hero and having a good time. The
husband and father. who was working
at the smcltcrs in Silver City. had sent
them to Salt Lake with instructions to
wait here for him. and he said he
would come about the 10th Of the
month. That date came but Larson
failed TO put in an appearance. Think
ing that Larson would surely come the
family made what preparations they
could for an enjoyable Christmas and
a generous Santa Claus for the little
ones .s.. -ff.-r
They were practically. without funds
and their preparations were necessarily
meager, but they were encouraged and
made happy In the thought that the
head of the household would soon be
here and then all would be we'll. They
waited day after day but he did not
come
Even when Larson failed to arrive on
Chistmas eve, hope was not given up.
Perhaps he had been delayed but would
reach Salt Lake Christmas morning.
That joyous day came and went but
Larson did not come. Becoming ap-
prchenslve, Mrs. Larson sent mes
sage to Silver City. where her husband
had been working for a long time, and
word came back that he had left there
days before. In the meantime the fam
ily had secured n place to live In the
southeastern part OF the city. near the

HOW THE sCHENIE WORKS.


Said the head of a prominent COM
mission house today: There is no good
reason why butter should be 40 cents
pound. and In packages scant ono
and two ounces at that The bottom
of the whole thing is a put up Job on
the part OF the butter trust; and I'll
tell you how they work 1t. The trust
management sends an agent out into a.
country settlement where there is
creamery, who goes among the produc-
Ing farmers, offering prices slightly
in excess of those given by the local
creamery for their cream. This of
course catches the innocent farmer who
does not see through the game, but
thinks he Is doing a fine stroke of
business. Presently the creamery peo-
pie find business Stacking up, and after
sufficient length of time the trust
management makes the country es-
tablishment an offer to close up for
stated time, as it Is represented
business warrants it. If the local peo-
pie refuse, the overbuying is continued
until there Is a surrender. Then,
with this competitor out OF the
way, there is presently a reduction Of
the prices paid the honest farmer for
his cream, as the agent alleges a falling
off In quality. due perchance to poor
feeding or improper caro-, and thou
sand and one other reasons With this
plan of operation obtaining over wide
area of country. the trust soon has the
battle in It's own hands. and up goes
the price of butter as handled by the
trust. We can not help ourselves, he
yond getting the facts before the pub
lie and relying on public sentiment to
compel the trust to stop this sort Of
thing"
,''Is this style of operations confined
to this section of the country?" was
asked.
"Oh. no. it is SO all over the country.
cast as we'll as west There Is a we'll
organized schome of operations after
this fashion whereby the trusts boost
prices, and make the consumer suffer.
They are no worse here than else

WOMEN MAKING HARD FIGHT.
The butter war goes merrily on to-

the price Is dropped to 80 cents. Tho

KETCHEL BACK
WITH vEN|SON

At last Willus Britt, Stanley
KetchePs manager. has been heard
from. Laden down with an abund-
ance of deer meat, as the result of
a hunt on the ranges, he has ar
rived with Ketchel in San Fran
cisco and will soon leave for New
York, where Ketchel is to box Sam
Langford. For weeks the where
abouts of Britt and Ketchel have
been a mystery to ringside sports
men the country over.
Britt signed contract some
time ago, before his departure into
the mountains, to match Ketchel
with Langford, but his protracted
absence and silence has kept the
whole country guessing as to
whether the fight would ever be
pulled off. The consequences have
been that both Britt and Ketchel
have been bitterly criticized.
Britt announces that Ketchel is
in excellent condition and weighs
1856 pounds. He will be ready for
the fight with Langford by the
second week Of September.

BERRY
RILEO

Now Henry Berry, president of
the Los Angeles base ball club of
the Coast league, is all up on his
ear over a statement made by Wal
ter McCredie of the Portland club
to the effect that continuous base
ball does not pay. and that the Los
Angeles club was not a financial
success. McCredie is quoted as
saying that Portland, San Fran
cisco and Oakland are the only
three clubs in the Coast league
that are making money. while the
others are losing proposition. 1t
is understood that Frank Ish of San
Francisco has riled MIR. Berry with
similar assertions and others re-
Elective on the Los Angeles club
and its management.
In an interview given out in Los
Angeles the other day, Berry said:
"McCredie and Ish are not run
ming the Pacific Coast league. The
statements attributed to the Port
land magnate are without founda-
ton. For instance. McCredie tells
a deliberate falsehood when he
says that the Los Angeles team
has not been a financial success
In answer to this, l put this state
ment right back In Mercedes face
My club could declare a so per cent
dividend tonight If necessary.
"The series between Los Angeles
and San Francisco just played at
tracted the largest crowds within
the history of baseball on the coast.
At the end Of this series my books
show mat all records for gate re-
ceipts have been broken so far as
the Pacific Coast league is con-
cerned. Another thing, continuous
baseball has been the biggest kind
of a success. and next year it will
be even greater. l will oppose any
effort on Mercedes part to inter
fere with the present arrangement.
1t is a case of sour grapes with
the Portland people.
IF McCredie wants a fight we
will give 1t to him. 1t is about time
some check was put to his childish
actions. Every baseball player and
every umpire in the league are
laughing right now at the way the
Portland people are acting.
1--WE are all making money and
we are going to continue to do so.
Please quote me: I believe from
Mercedes actions that, he is look
ing for a chance to quit the league.
That is all right with us, but we
will keep the Portland franchise
and put another manager in there"

INDIANS LARUP
TIGERS

One double, one triple and a
whole bag full OF singles were
taken from poor Ike Butler, the
snarling Tacoma Tigers husky
pitcher. by the merciless Indians
yesterday. Just that, figured out
against the luck Tacoma had con-
Meeting with Rasty Wright's dope,
spells Tacoma's defeat by a score
of 6 to /.
The Tigers didn't stop at having
bad luck at bat. but carried the eff
fects of the links" out into the
field with them. There they muff-
ed the ball now and then just when
an Indian or two was sprinting for
the home plate. and the incidental
score at the end of the marathon
just couldn't be helped.
The Spokane team played anoth
er game without error. AS the
game boiled along toward the fin
ish Ike Butler got up in the air
and played somewhat fishy. In the
fourth, with two down, he banged
Stub Spencer on the ankle with
the ball. Eastwood then threw
an uncivilized ball over first in an
attempt to stop Stubs" capers,
and by the time they located the
leathern sphere Spencer was camp
ing at third bag. He scored on
Wright's single.
Crowds at Tacoma are reported
poor. This is undoubtedly due to
the fact that there the home team
is at the tail end with no hope of
getting further up this season. The
game yesterday was the eighth for
the Indians since leaving Spokane,
and SO far they have made but
seven errors

but practically devoid of real fea-
lures. Siever pitched fairly good
ball for Aberdeen, but was no

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 16.-Al-

city believes he is to become the
fastest five mile runner in the
world-pretty much Of an ambition
for an IS year old kid, isn't it?
Duell is so fast he makes specta-
tors dizzy watching him run around
a quarter mile track. He has a rec
ord of 1858 for five miles, which is
going quite some for boy who has
been in athletics only two years.
Duell trains regularly, and hopes
that within the next two years he
may get on race with some Of the

phenomenal Englishman, is in
cluded in the list of men the boy
hopes to take the measure of.

when the Turks got through lam

by score of to 3. Prior to that

both teams had kept the score
down and the game was very
