SANITARY CRUSADE IS
BEGUN BY THE CITY

Impelled to action by numerous com
plants of alleged unsanitary conditions
prevailing in public resorts of foreigners.
W. J. Frazier, pure food inspector,
started a crusade yesterday afternoon
which led to four arrests and may result
in many more unless the sanitary laws
are complied with.
For the most part the violations are
said to be in the foreign colonies about
the city. Every foreign quarter in the city
is to be thoroughly Investigated and apart
from the eating and lodging houses the
private homes of residents also will be
looked over.
AT this season Of the year too much
severity cannot be exercised In forcing
the regulations in this respect" said In
spector Frazier. The conditions in the
places where warrants were served TO-
day were found extremely bad, and if al
lowed to continue it may be the cause Of
an epidemic of fever and disease before
the summer is half over. Extraordinary
caution must be observed during the hOL
months. The accumulated refuse and the
Odor arising therefrom, as found in some
OF these places, is nothing short of shock
ing. The trouble is almost wholly with
the foreign element and 1 mean to see
that they and all others as well comply
with the regulations right up to the let
ter, or suffer the maximum penalty i'm
posed by law
The following were served with war

The investigation will be continued to-

zier and his deputies to visit every public
place and the private homes Of residents
of various foreign quarters and wherever
violations of the sanitary laws are found
the offenders will be ordered into court

FINE OUTING At LAGOON
Mrs. Sadie Grow Gets Prize for Lar

Babies Were Prize Infants.

The Woman's Democratic club yester-
day gave a delightful outing at Lagoon.
The ladies of the organization spent all
afternoon at the resort. Mrs. II. J. Hay
ward, president Of the club. explained that
the affair was purely social and that the
affair had no political significance. The
women of this organization are not plung-
ing into the fall campaign during the sum
mer heat. but when the campaign is be-
gun they declared yesterday there would
be no more ardent workers than the Dem
Ocratic women.
The day was spent quietly by the wo-
men while the children rOmped on the
green lawns of the pretty resort Mrs.
Sadie Grow had the largest Democrat
family on the grounds and was awarded
a prize of half a ton of coal for her
showing. Late last evening Mrs. II. J.
Hayward had not decided which was the
prettiest baby among the embryo Demo-
Gratis. This task was made exceedingly
difficult from the fact that there were
hundreds of handsome infants, on any
Cne of whom the prize candy might have
been creditably bestowed.

There was no change in the plumbers
strike situation yesterday. Neither side
made any move toward d conference and
there is but little chance Of the men go

which is coming in daily. The master
plumbers say that they cannot afford TO
pay the plumbers So a day, as their con-
tracts were taken on The basis of a 1870
wage scale. To pay the men the advance

has on hand over $4,000 worth of con-
tracts taken at the old scale of wages.
To give the men an increase on this work.

TAKES POISON
Unhappy Love Affair Prompts
Sylvia Vail to At
tempt Suicide.
PROMPT ACT SAVES HER
z. J. MILNE DISCOVERS HER IN
sALTAIR BATHROOM.
PROMPT ACT SAVES HER

Brooding over an unhappy love affair,
Sylvia Vail IS years old, daughter Of
Charles T. Vail, former chief Of the fire
department, made an unsuccessful at
tempt to kill herself by swallowing
laudanum at Saitair shortly after s
o'clock last evening.
She was saved from death by the
prompt action Of E. j. Milne, assistant
coach of the University Of Utah. who
forced himself to her side just as she
was passing into Inconsistencies, and
remained with her until the last bit Ct
poison had been rejected from her stom-
ach.
Miss Vail is employed as cashier at
the Princess skating rink, one of the
concessions on the grounds For the last
few days friends have remarked her I'M
happy state of mind. They attributed
it to an unfortunate love affair.
At about o'clock last evening she
left her work, apparently TO go to din
ner- Instead, she stepped into a bath
stall, a tWO-OunCe vial Of iaUdanum in
her possession Where she obtained the
drug she refused to say.
About a quarter of an hour after
ward Milne was passing the bath house.
He was attracted by deep moaning.
After tracing the source Of the sounds
he rushed to the room to investigate.
Believing something wrong after re-
Ceiving no response to his knock, he
broke down the door.
Miss Vail lay OUtstTetched on the
floor, the empty bottle at her side. She
was groaning with pain and appeared
then to be passing into a SenSeleSs state.
Milne seemed to understand the trou-
bic, and after raising the young woman
to a chair he tried to force her to vomit.
His first effort In this direction was
without result for upon forcing his fin
ser down her throat, she brought her
jaws together with desperate force.
Mines second effort proved more eff
fective, for after releasing his injured
finger, he inserted his thumb.
Gradually the poison was rejected
from her system, and after the young
woman was out of danger, less heroic
methods were Tesorted to, and she was
sOOnirevived completely.
In the company of a Miss Russell. a
friend. and Milne, the young woman
was taken downtown on the s o'clock
Saltair train and sent to the home of
