CAPTURE OF VECOS,
THE MURDERER.

The officers. in the trailing and cap
turing of Nick Vecos. the slayer OF
John Contos. have proved equal to a
trying task. The murderer was re
sourceful and availed himself of the
underbrush in the outskirts OF the
city, creeping along until he gained
the open country south of Ogden
headed. no doubt, for the Greek col
ony In Salt Lake City.
Notwithstanding these advantages
on the part of tho slayer, who was
reported well armed, the officers fol-
lowed the man from the city to the
Sanitarium. south along the bench and
west to where he was trapped and
brought to an ignominlous surrender.
1t is a good piece of man hunting
and deserves the thanka OF this
community.

FRED w. CHAMBERS is
NAMED.

The appointment Of Fred w. Cham
oers as state game warden Is the
answer that the Governor of Utah
makes TO those who have DETAINED a
man VINO has been prominent In the
affairs Of this city for many years It
Is the answer the Governor felt called
upon TO make after consulting some of
the highest legal authorities In the
state. II comes as a rebuke to such
papers as the Salt Lake Herald which
said Mr.. Chambers was debarred from
Office as felon. That paper, when It
uttered such a libel, knew that Mr.
Chambers. in the councIlmanic cases.
was a defendant In simply a civil ac,
lion. for the last compilation of the
statutes of Utah makes special refer
ence to the action as civil and not
criminal, in fact the conviction was
obtained because the defendant AT the
time OF trial was not allowed to prove
The absence of wilful or corrupt mo-
tives.
Mr. Chambers has been with this
paper during the most active period
OF his life. He leaves because the
position he accepts Is more lucrative
than the newspaper field offers. He
goes with regrets on our part. but with
our best will and good wishes.
HIS appointment Is the elimination
OF a friendship he and Governor Spry
formed when they tramped through
the Southern States as Mormon mis-.
sionaries, bearing the brunt of a
southern hatred which found vent in
the killing of one or two of their party
and the tarrlng and featherinp of 9th.

WATCH FOR THE DANGEROUS
HOUSE FLY.

w. D. Biggers, writing from De
troIt under date OF March 81, adds
these statements to an editorial ap
pearing In these columns. urging the
people generally to guard against dis
ease breeding flies:
Much can be done to remedy the
evil caused by the house fly and mos
quito. These Insects breed in filth
and dirt and II each householder
would see that their own premises
are kept clean and free from refuse
OF all kinds, these insects would not
find a place for breeding. While 1t
may be impossible to exterminate the
flies and mosquitoes. yet this danger
and trouble may be greatly lessened
by the proper use of screen doors and
window screens. In this day of mex
pensive screens and wire cloth, there
is no excuse for any householder OF
even moderate means being without
screens. which add so much to the
comfort. health and security of the
home
III we will get rid of the breeding
places OF files, we will soon get rid
of the flies and. In the meantime. for
the sake OF health. comfort and clean
liness. we should keep these insects
out of our homes by proper screen
Ing"
Mr.. Bigger points out how essential
to the welfare Of all is the keeping
clean Of all yards.
With the first appearance of flies,
and even before, the homes should be
thoroughly screened One fly can car
ry enough typhoid germs to infict
typhoid fever upon a whole family.

MILLIONS OF LIVES LOST
The Awful Toll Collected by
Consumption.

II people could only understand that
Catarrh Is al internal scrofula-that
nothing applied externally does much
good-they would not need to be
warned so often about this fatal dis
ense. which, when neglected, invar-
iably ends up IN Consumption, at the
cost OF millions Of lives every year.
Yet Catarrh is easily cured IL the
right treatment is employed.
Catarrh is caused by germs in the
blood which circulate throughout tho
entire system. External remedies
give but temporary ease. Although
the effects are often seen in the form
OF pimples, rash. eczema or dry scaly
SKIN, the trouble is internal. and can
never be cured by external remedies
Inc only way to cure Catarrh is by
employing medicine which is alb.
sorbed and carried by the blood To all
parts of the system. so that the muc-
Gus membrane OF internal lining OF
the body is thoroughly medicated
soothed, disinfected of germ matter
and the soreness healed
