outward appearance Of the wound was
not at all alarming. but that no delin-
ite statement as TO what the results
might be could be determined until
this morning, The wounded boy was

It was stated this afternoon that the
condition OF Carlos Critchlow was
still critical, the physicians being yet
uncertain as to the outcome. The
bullet penetrated the large intestine
and several folds of the small intes-
tine, finally lodging In cavity OF the
Intestinal region. An operation was
performed, the result OF which is yet
gravely uncertain.
Mr. Critchlow stated that the idea is
prevalent that his sisters young son,
Glen Stair, was the one who fired the
shot instead of Earl Stuhr, the errone-
Gus impression having arisen from the
fact that both fathers are foremen In
the Southern Pacific shops,

per-mile rate each way. OF three cents
per mile one way for tho round trip.
But 1t then turns to Ogden and says:
You Ogden people are not quite as
good as Salt Lake City people. and
for that reason we give you the Salt
Lake rate plus 33 1-3 per cent"
That Is what the Short Line has
done. and. when Ogden complains of
this unfair treatment, the Short Line
officers say, why, our price and one
third Is just the same per milo as the
Rio Grande single price-both are
four cents"
Ogden answers back, "We don't caro-
what the Rio Grande charges us so
long as Ogden gets the same rate per
mile that Salt Lake City gets. The
Rio Grande gives ogden just the same
rates 1t gives to Salt Lake City, which
the Short Line refuses to do"
The Short Line people. however, are
trying to pull tho wool over the eyes
Of Ogden people. as the prices charged
by the Rio Grande people are not four
cents per mile by any means. In some
cases 1t may be even more, but few
isolated cases should not be used for
the purpose of misrepresenting the
whole matter. AS matter of fact 1T
does not make any difference what
any road charges in this case. as Og-
den wants only square deal. 1t wants
the same rates Salt LakeCity receives,
nothing more, nothing less.
But to show that the Short Line
people do not tell the whole truth. we
publish herewith a statement Of ac-
tual and regular rates charged by the
Rio Grande from Marysvale, the ter
minus of the southern branch, TO Og-
den. Utah,
The first column Of figures gives the
regular prices for tickets; the second
column gives the miles from Ogden
the third column gives the prices as
they would be at four cents per mile:

Hlah Prices In India.

Increase in the price OF grain and
foodstufT throughout India has become
a serious matter on account of the
poverty OF the masses and the low
wages paid for labor. according to
report made by Consul General VIII
liam B. Michael to the bureau Of man
ufactures. He says that foodstuffs
have advanced 40 per cert during the
last, two years In India, while rents
have advanced from so to 60 per cent.
'>le cause of this advance is as
cribed by some, he says, to the ex-
port of too much grain and other food
commodities from the country, thus
limiting the supply and enabling
certain class Of spectators to raise
the price of foodstufts.
There is discomfort among all
classes. except the very wealthy. be-
cause 1t is almost impossible TO 1--we

daily wages.

but the foregoing gives the important
points. The intermediate polnntS un-
doubte1ly are at the same ratio.
We find the Richfield rate one way
is only S6.35. just fraction over 3
cents per mile. Manti 161 miles, is
less than 3 cents per mile, for a ticket
while at cents II would be S4.S3.
From Heber City 1t is only $3.50,
which is less than 3 cents a mile.
The rate from Lehi is just fraction
over IL cents. The Bingham juno
ton rate is just 3 IA cents per mile.
while from Murray the rate is little
less than IA cents per mile.
We did not seek the rates from the
Juab county mining camps, as the
Rio Grande has a very expensive
piece of road in that county and would
be justified in charging cents per
mile in that section.
Now the foregoing tells the whole
story of the Oregon Short Line trying
TO fool the Ogden and Weber county
people into the belief that II is doing
as we'll by them as any other road.
II the Short Line will make the G.
A. r. and conference excursion rates
TO Salt Lake City the same price per
mile 1t charges Ogden, then the people
of this part of the country will have no
complaint. Our people ask for the
same price per mile that is granted
our sister city. The Rio Grande has
granted the rate-the Short Line re-
fuses to do so, Any effort of the Short
Line to play for sympathy among our
people should be resented
The people generally should give
the railroad to understand that the
best rates are wanted by the whole
people Of Ogden and not alone by
those In charge of the fair association.
The officers Of the fair association are
only the representatives of the people
nothing more.

Voices Surprised Porters

Dear Aunt Laurie:
Say, fellows, keep this side up; can't
you see the sign? What's the matter
with you anyhow? There might be
glass or chinaware in that box. You
get more careless every day." said the
freight agent OF the u. p r. r. to the
freight handlers as they were lifting
large wooden box into the car.
"Thank you" said a voice from the
box. Hearing this the men dropped
the box with exclamatlons Of surprise
Don't stand me on my head again
or 1 will report you," came from the
box.
"Why do you stand there gapingf
Get to work." said the superintendent
who came along just then.
There's some one in the box, boss,
said the men in chorus.
Some one in the box?" asked the
superintendent. "Why, how-do you
know?"
"He just now told US not to stand
him on his head" answered one of the
men.
"If there is any one in this box,
speak up" said the superintendent.
"Tell those baggagemen to handle us
carefully" came from the box.
"Usl" repeated the superintendent
"Are there more than one OF you IN
there?"
"There are three Of u.s." came from
the box.
Take the lid off the box ordered the
Superintendent and as the men pried
there came eXclamations of pain from
the box, which made the men work
with greater care.
When the lid was finally pried off 10,
and behold! There sat three dolls, one
of whom had red hair and another a
black face.
A gentleman, who had watched the
men from the beginning, stepped over
to the superintendent and whispered
something in his ear, at which they
both laughed.
The man was a ventriloquist and the
owner of the box. The superintendent
ordered the lid nailed on and the box
was placed in the car.
Just for a joke the superintendent
did not tell the men about the ventrlio-
uuist and they are wondering to this
day what caused the conservation in
the box. Your niece,

Romance of Slipper

Dear Aunt Laurie:
All the other occupants of the old
trash box had told their history ex-
cept an old slipper, which now began
to talk.
'I was born in a shoe factory in
Maine, with a whole lot of other slip
pers. The man put another slipper
and myself in a box and shipped us TO
q shoe store in Los Angeles, where we
remained for quite while, getting bet
ter acquainted every day.

For the first few weeks everything
went all right. I found out that l had

and 7 told her I couldn't do anything

did not speak any more on the subject,
but resolved to be a hero if could.
