HE THOUGHT OF ANOTHER
Prisoner Accused Of kissing Plaintiff
Had Excellent Appeal to Make
to jury.
Gentlemen Of the Jury:

Gentlemen Of the Jury:
THE prisoner has been accused of
kissing the plaintiff. Let me tell you
how 1t happened, SO that you will have
a fuller understanding OF the case. The
prisoner Is a promising young man
and a great social favorite in his set.
Among his other accomplishments he
knows a number Of very interesting
parlor tricks.
H can draw rabbits from hats,
eggs from ears and he can invariably
produce the queen Of spades from q
full deck of cards. While performing
some Of his most diff cult tricks he
asks for the help OF an assistant to
hold his hands and to~look him in the
eye In this way he proves that there
Is no deception, no mechanical device,
nothing in his hands and nothing in
his sleeves.
"One night when the prisoner
called upon the plaintiff she asked
him to teach her one Of these
tricks.
"T must get an assistant he said,
to hold my hands and look me in the
eye.'
- Wall De your assistant h an
swered, and I will hold your hands
and look you in the eye
In a moment of weakness my client
consented. She held his hands and she
looked him in the eye. What hap.
pened? Gentlemen Of the JURY, what
happened? He forgot his tricks; he
couldn't think Of a single. solitary
one.
What's the natter she asked.
"T have forgotten the trick I was
going to show you
"She looked at him in a very coy
manner
"'Well,' she said, can't you think Of
some other suitable trtck?'
Gentlemen of the jury. 1t ia then
that he kissed her and that is the case
upon which we await your verdict
guilty or not guilty."-New York Even.

The F9ar In Aviation.

Just before his departure from Eng.

Mr.. Grahame-White, the foremost
English birdman, in an interview thus
described the nerve strain Of flying:

thing unexpected may happen-that
the engine may fail, that a stay may
break, that a controlling wire may

FEVER EPIDEMIC YET
Board of Health Report Shows Dis
ease Decreases Slowly.

Scarlet fever still plays a most con-
spicuous part in the weekly disease re-
ports to the city board of health, and
in spite of the efforts Of the city board
Of health the record is not greatly re-
duced. The weekly report, completed
yesterday, shows forty-seven cases of
contagious diseases, of which twenty
five are scarlet fever. 1t is a reduction
from the th.rty-seven cases Of the week
previous. Other diseases were reported
as follows: Smallpox, 4; diphtheria, 5;
simple meningitis, /; mumps, 1; mea-
sles, 5; whooriag cough, l. pneumonia.
1, and chickenpox, 4. For the same week
last year there were only sixteen cases
Of scarlet fever and three Of smallpox.
The report showss that seventy-two
houses are now under quarantine be-
cause of scarlet fever, against fifty-four
for the same time a year ago, and that
there are now seventeen houses quaran-
tined for sn1allL OK, seven for diphtheria,
and three smallpox patients are still at
the isolation hospital.
There were only forty-two births re-
ported for the week, and Of these TWEEN
ty-seven were girls. Twenty-Five deaths
were reported, OF which fifteen were
males. Five bodies were brought here

Inspectors of Bureau of Animal In

gious Task.

The work of the bureau of animal in
dustry Of the United States department
of agriculture In testing over 1900 head
of dairy cattle In Utah has been COM
pleted, with the result that tuberculosis
in cattle in this state has been pretty
we'll eradicated.
The government inspectors have now
turned their attention to the sheep,
which are on the way to the shearing
pens. The United States inspectors
were acting for. the Utah state board
of health, under Secretary Beatty. II
was found that although the legislature
had not made any appropriation for
the work, that the bureau at Washing
ton had part of an appropriation left
that might be used for tuberculosis in
spection in this state.
OF the number of cattle inspected, 300
were condemned, and of these about
90 per cent passed the inspection. as
the disease was not sufficiently devel-
oped to affect the muscular tissue.

WATCHES RESTAURANTS
State Food Commissioner Will See
That Visitors Are Given
Good Vietuals.

Willard Hansen, state dairy and food
commissioner, is going to pay particular
attention to the city restaurants during
conference week, for the purpose of see
ing that the 1ood served in these places
is up to the requirements of the law.
The presence of such a large crowd in
the city during the week, it is thought,
might result in some of the keepers
adopting lax methods, and it is the in
tention Of the commissioner to have his
deputies make the rounds for the pur-
pose of seeing that there are no 'eYasions
of the law. The commissioner an
nounced yesterday that the law dealing
with the sale of adulberated milk, in
particular, would be enforced. The
deputies have been instructed to visit
the several places and take samples of
milk wherever there is any suspicion of
the milk being watered.
The commissioner yesterday visited
the grocery stores and restaurants in
the Gree kquarter. but did not find any
violations Of the pure food law.

PERCY HALL.EN HAS
RIGHT TO PRACTICE
Supreme Court Says Board
Had No Authority to Take
Away His License.

Percy Hallen has at last won his
fight against the state board of OPP
tometry. and in an opinion handed
down by the supreme court yesterday
it is ordered that the board issue a
permit to Hallen to practice optometry
in Utah. The opinion is written by
Justice J. E. Prick, and takes the
ground that the state board exceeded
its authority in acting in an arbitrary
manner in regard 10 Hallen, whose APP
plicatiOn for a license was refused on
July 1, 1907.
The case came before the supreme
court on appeal from the action of
Judge George G. Armstrong of the
Third district court in granting a writ
of mandate, compelling the board of
Optometry to issue the permit to Hal
len. The case was appealed by the
board, but the supreme court confirms
the position of Judge Armstrong. 1t
was shown that HaIlen had applied for
a license and rendered the fee of So
The board denied the application, how
ever, though Hallen had been practic-
ing, in way, for eighteen years. On
May 10, 1893, Judge Armstrong issued
the writ of mandate compelling the
state board of optometry to issue a
license. The supreme court holds that

to the requirements of the board, it
was not the purpose of the legislative
enactment creating the board to bar
those previously engaged in the bust
ness.
1t is held that the board certainly
has the right to revoke certificates, but
that an examination and hearing must
be given before this action is taken.
In another opinion, written by JUS
tice w. M. McCarty, the state loses
another fight in the case against Jo-
seph Barker, which was appealed from
Judge J. A. Howell of the Second dis
trict court, and which is affirmed by
the supreme court. Barker, it was
claimed. maintained a fish hatchery
and screens in Huntsville Spring creek,
Weber county, a tributary to Ogden
river. The screens were built across
what was once the channel of the
stream.
The bed of the stream had changed,
but the state charged that the small
stream which still flowed through the
old bed was a natural feeding and
spawning ground for fishes and could
not be lawfully obstructed. The su-
preme court holds that the diversion Of
the water did not interfere with its
usefulness as natural spawning
ground of fish, and that the water con-
tinues to run unpoiluted into Hunting
ton creek. Barker is therefore permit
ted TO continue maintaining the
screens.

company, TO meet with the city and ar
range some system in handling the sur
face water. Mr.. Gwyn Is expected here
from Denver within a few days, when
the whole matter win be taken up and

The Rio Grande station viii straddle
Third South street and thus cut of the
natural drainage east and west The
plans worked out in the city engineer
Office contemplate the building Of a
concrete aqueduct at least from Third
West street to Sixth West street, for
the handling Of this water, and IL is be-
HeVed by the city that the railroad
company should pay the expense. Il
is said a pipe at least two feet in
diameter should be constructed to ham
die the flow.
One Of the most difficult problems is
encountered because Of the level cOun-
try and the slight fall from the depot
to the river. In the past the surface
water has been carried across this
ground and across the present Rio
Grande tracks at Sixth West street by
means of fumes, but this VIII not be
adequate, it is stated, when the asphalt
is laid and when the building Is ready
to be thrown open 10 the public. The
expense viii be several thousands OF

such improvement and to work out the
