BANKS BURGLAR ALARM
AGAIN BRINGS OUT PATROL

The hoodoo man seems to have made a
home among the wires of the automatic
burglar alarm system in the Utah Saw
fngs & Trust company's vault, and finds
it great sport and pastime to get the wires
crossed and see the police patrol answer
the hurry call. For the third time since
the installation of the patent device last
year the police department last night had
to respond to a false alarm from that
building
It was o'clock when the gong startled
everyone in headquarters with its loud
clamor, and it took but one glimpse at the
indicator to send Lieutenant Hempel and
all the available patrolmen scurrying to
the patrol wagon. There was a wild dash
down the streets until the bank was
reached-there only to meet with a great
er surprise. Inside the bank six or seven
clerks sat quietly at their desks. their
only concern being to get through with
their late work as quickly as possible
It was difficult to tell which were the
most astonished, the policemen as they
viewed the peaceful scene. or the clerks
at the invasion of the blue-coated men.
In the explanations that followed the
clerks were positive that no one had dis
be aware of the fact that the alarrn-hsd
perfect order. with the time lock carefully
set.
The exciting run of the patrol wagon
through the streets and its quick stop in
front of the bank drew a big crowd of
the curious who blocked the street i'm their
eagerness to see what was transpiring.

CREDIT GIVEN
To DR.. Williams Pink Pills for a
Thorough Cure in a Stub
born Case of Sciatica.

A really remarkable cureof sciatica by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills is that of Mr.
William H. Shine, of No. gill 22nd
avenue, South, Minneapolis, MINI. Mr.
Shine is employed by the Flour. City
Ornamental Iron Works and is AMEN
Der and Chief Forester of Camp 47S4,
Modern WOodmen of America. During
the Sioux campaign in which Sitting
Bull was killed, Mr.. Shine was member
of Troop K, Sixth u. s. Cavalry Mr.
Shine has lived in Minneapolis for
twenty-five years. In telling recently
of mis- cure by DR. Williams Pink Pills,
he says:
"About five years ago l was engaged
in work which required heavy lifting
and 1 think this may possibly shave been
the cause of the sciatica In my case.
For three months was confined to bed
and was sick altogether for about two
years and a half was on crutches for
about seven months. There were sharp,
cutting pains from my back down to my
heel 1t was very painful for me to
get up after l had been sitting down for
a while. The cords of my foot and heel
seemed to draw together. The muscles
of my legs had to be rubbed before l
could sleep. Ny feet were swollen so
that l had to wear shoes much too
large for me and 1 could hardly hobble
along.
II was treated by two doctors and
each pronounced my case sciatica.
Neither doctor helped me much. The
last doctor gave me electric treatments
three times week for at least three
months. After finding that this did not
help me to any extent, 1 took vapor
baths for about the same length of time.
I followed this with sulphur baths for
five weeks but nothing seemed to help
me. then began the use of DR.. Will
hams' Pink Pills, as a friend said they
had helped him When / began taking
the pills | was unable to work and was
walking with cane After fair
treatment 1 began to feel results from
the pills. 1 continued using the pills
until they effected complete cure. L
wish by this statement to give DR., VIII
Eams' Pink Pills credit for my cure
Sciatica IS neuralgia of the sciatic
nerve and this remedy has cured stub
born cases of neuralgia in many forms.

The Ogden Fruit Growers association
is at work on scheme to have raised
in this vicinity next season at least $50
acres of cantaIoupes and have them

WANTED TO BE IN PICTURE.
Greeks and Americans Have Riot
Over a Photograph.

An incipient riot took place yesterday
at the noon hour in the Southern Pacific
yards between the Americans employed
on the viaduct and a number of Greeks
employed at the freight house. The
Americans were having a photograph
taken, and had climbed upon the Orders
of the viaduct for this purpose, about six
teen strong Two Greeks seemed deter
mined to be included in the picture and
climbed up with the white men. They
were ordered off, and refusing to go were
showed off. One of them hurled a stone
in among the group of workmen. A free
for-aI fight followed with the sixteen
Americans on one side and between forty
and fifty Greeks on the other. One of
the Greeks pulled a large knife He was
overcome, however, and after several OF
the Greeks had been roughly handled
truce was declared. Bad blood was en-
gendered, however, and serious trouble is
looked for in the future. No arrests were
made.

Bad for the Bow Vows.

An ordinance respecting vicious dogs
was finally passed. This gives the chief
of police the authority to kill vicious or
mischievous dogs wherever found, and to
enter the premises and take such animals
from any one fArboring them. The chief
also has authority to shoot all dogs found
without a collar to which is attached a
license check. 1t also makes it a INSIDE
meanor to keep a vicious or mischievous
dog.
Someone asked where the dog catcher
came in, but nobody could answer. The
ordinance seems to abolish that office,
though it fails to mention it.

the Oregon Short Line on Third West to
Fifth South to the VogeleT warehouse
was passed
Considerable discussion arose concerning
the franchise asked by the Salt Lake &
Los Angeles railway. An amendment was
at first proposed that the railway should
be required to pave the streets over which
it wants to run. This seemed to meet with
appreciation, and the ordinance was sent
back to the municipal laws committee
to embody some such clause The fran
chise asked is for single track from Sec
ond South and Third West to First South
and Fourth West, thence along First
South to the city limits.
The business of the council was by no
means finished despite the lateness of the
hour. and adjournment was made until
Thursday evening.

MIR. Martins TRADE.

Councilman Martin broke loose when the
report of the streets committee, that the
request of Glen r. Boutwell, and others
to open Tenth East between Eighth and
Ninth South be filed. was opposed by
Councilman J. J. Stewart. He began an
Grafton which became vehement before he
closed The firm. he said, were Land
sharks" "Swindlers" and had bulldozed
their customers in that locality.
Councilman Black managed to get in d
word to the effect that he had known the
members of the firm for many years, and
had found them always honorable gentle
mc~
This aroused Martin to a frenzy. He
called upon the newspaper reporters to
listen, and then began TRADE of abuse
of the firm. Sharks THE biggest
swindlers that ever did business in Salt
Lake" "Shysters ard robbers" were the
mildest of the epithets he applied to them
He said this firm had built houses of
paper and that some of their houses
.bIfiit three or four years ago were already
IA ling down. As far as this proposition
was concerned, they had deluded puT-
chasers of houses and lots on this So
called street to buy lots, and then came
in to get the city to help them out of the
hole by making a three-Tod street where
they had opposed a four-rod street a few
years ago.
The other members of the council
listened to the remarks, and on motion
of Councilman L. +. Hall set the whole
matter over for week.

COUNCIL HAS WARM TIME
UNFINISHED BUSINESS is PUT
OVER THREE DAYS.

With City Recorder John B. Moreton
back from his, holiday trip and Council
man J. J. Stewart back in his seat at the
council, early closing of sessions of that
august body are a thing of the past. Last
evening the council sat until after II
o'clock. and beyond listening to an elo-
quent speech from Councilman l.. ID. Mar
tin in denunciation OF a local real estate
firm, did little more than to lay important
matters pending over for periods of time
running from a week to three weeks.
Among these are all the improvements
which are asked, advertised and carried
by the property owners. The saloon ordi-
nance got another delay of a week in the
hope that the legislature by that time will
have adjourned without passing any radi-
cal liquor legislation.
The budget also went over indefinitely,
having been referred to the board of esti-
mates and improvements which sent it in.
This was done on motion of Councilman
Fernstrom without explanation. The re-
port of the fire committee recommending
a new station, went over until the new
budget is reported. A request of the Real
Estate association that the paved streets
be repaired, met the same fate.

WILL CELEBRATE THE
FOURTH AT VIRGINIA

The Fourth of July viii soon be
here and the COmstOck will cele
brats the National birthday in grand
style. 1t is planned to give a two or
three days celebration.
During this year will come the fiji
tieth anniversary OF ne discovery OF
gold in Gold Canyon, which led 4
year later to the discovery OF silver
on the Comstock. In fact the town
or Gold Hill, which, with Virginia,
constitutes the COmstock was settled
in 1858. Consequently ,his year is
the golden jubilee of the halfway
stone in the century mark.
So the coming Fourth OF July car
nival on the COmstock ought to be
one of great local jubiiation and not
only shall this section of the state
take part in the celebration, but it
SHOULD be made matter of state wide
importance, as an event cOmmerative
of the real birth of Nevada. All the
new mining camps of the State should
be invited to join in this memorial
anniversary ceiebration.-Va. Chron-

FOUR MEN ARE
IN ROBBERY

The robbery of the Casino saloon in
Reno, instead of being accomplished
by one man as reported by phone yes
terday, was carried out by four.
They were seen as they escaped
from the building with a sack of coin
and Il chicken hearted policeman Stop
ped in his tracks, ran to a telephone
and called for help because one of the
fleeing men had taken a shot at him.
The men found the janitor, a China
man. and a watchman in the place
and put them in the cellar. A third
man poked his lead in the door while
the men were rObbinS the safe. The
men ran across the railroad track tow
ard Sparks and that is the last seen
of them. They got over $4,000 from
the safe, the combination OF which
had been broken for some Time. The
only wonder is that they did not get
more as the safe generally contains
between $4,000 and $4,000. Police
are running aroud in circles as usual.
