as he was being taken out Of the court
room Of Judge G. W. Morse yesterday
afternoon during the divorce hearing.
And as he passed his former wife,
Mrs. Louie Pitts, he laughingly touched
his hand to his lips and threw her a
kiss.
Pitts had been brought before Judge
Morse to show cause why he should
not be punished for having failed 10
pay his wife alimony of SIS a month,
which went with the divorce to her,
issued by Judge George O. Armstrong
on July %. There was really $50 due
the divorced wife, but Pitts had taken
care of one CT the children and thus
S25 was deducted.
Pitts admitted to Judge Morse that
he had the money with which to pay
the court order to his divorced wife,
that he owned property in Salt Lake
and had refused 10 make any settle
ment. When Judge Morse found him
in contempt of court and ordered him
sent to JAIL Pitts said he would rot
there before he would pay The or
der Of Judge Morse is that Pitts re-
main in jail until he pay the $40 Que
his former wife.
A similar case came before the dis
trict court a short time ago, when Ed
ward D. Bartlett refused to pay ALI
mOny TO his divorced wife and was
sent to jail by Judge Richie. Bart
lett said he would rot there before
paving the money, but after more than
100 days in tht county jail he thought
better Of It and paid the money

shown in the preservation of its fish
cries there is strict saw against per-
hitting sawdust to enter streams. But
it is the claim of superintendent OF
sugar beet factories that particles Of
sugar beet pulp are beneficial to tish
instead of being injurious, and they
have frequently explained to the tish
commissioner that there has been an
increase instead of decrease OF nsh IN
such sections of streams where beet
pulp has been permitted TO settle.
A week ago complaints began to
pour into the office of the fish commits
siOner that refuse from the sugar fac
tories in Cache valley was seriously
damaging the trout streams in that
section and urging that a -speClai or
der be issued prohibiting the practice
of allowing beet pulp particles 10 be
dumped into the fishing streams. There
has been doubt in the mind of the
fish commissioner that sugar beet pulp
has been injurious to FISH, but on the
other hand beneficial, and yesterday
he secured a sample of the common
refuse from the sugar beet factories
at ogden, which he Immediately turned
over to the state chemist.
A similar dispute brought forth Wig
orous analysis and presentation of the
cries in Colorado several years ago.

between superintendent Of sugar fac

whether refuse from sugar beet pulp,

away or kill fish, will be settled within
two or three days. Last night State
Fish Commissioner Fred w. Chambers

State Chemist Herman Harms for anal

keen interest.
1t has been argued by fishermen ana
such as are interested in filling streams

the angler, that pulp particles from
the sugar beet permitted to drift into
streams effect fish similar to sawdust
from saWmills.

REAL ESTATE MEMS
OUTING At SALTA|R
1t Is Thought This Years Blow
out Will Be the Best
Ever.

Reports of committees Of the Sslb
standing Of matters pertaining to the
annual outing Of the association to be
held Juno 90, were presented at the
regular meeting of the organization at
the Commercial club Thursday after
noon and showed that the list of prizes
which Will be presented at the outing
to ticket holders will be larger than at
any other outing ever given by the asso
citation.
The customary luncheon was served
at the meeting and n great deal of rou
tine business was transacted. Most Of
the reports concerned details of the
coming outing. Arrangements in gen
eral arc farther advanced than they
have been in any previous year. 1t is
thought there will be at least 1000 prizes
donated by the business men of the city
for the great celebration. Every mem
ber has made careful canvass of the
territory ssigned TO him and the re-
turns are not only large, but unusually
valuable.
The sale Of tickets already has been
larger than ever before and members
are taking hold of the details OF the af-
fair in a way which indicates that this
outing will not only eclipse every other
attempt made by the association, but
that the financial showing will be eX-
celent. The larger part of the receipts
Will be devoted to carrying on the eX-
hiblt at the Chamber of Commerce for
the coming year and cnlarging 1t so
that the display will be especially at
tractive during the coming fortythird

over month ago. At several times pre-.
yIous to obtaining the confession of

capped a second time.

on the night Of May 0 and at an early
hour in the morning he heard some one
hammerlng in the station. He says he
went to the station and met two men
emerging from it and one of them
handed HIM 50, telling him to keep his
mouth shut. He then went into the
station, he says. and, striking a match,
lighted piece of paper which he threw
INTO pile of other paper. After this
he went back to a box car, he says, and
watched the station purn He gave no
reason tor doing this. The station was
valued at $4,000.
