Bogus Deaf and Dumb Youth
In Jail Falls Into Own Trap

HARRY Williams, a young man
L l. who is at the county Jail awaiting
trial in the district court on a charge of
robbery, spoke for the first time yes
terday since his arrest February Is.
Williams is feigning insanity and pre-
tending that he has lost all power of
speech. When he saw a bird fly past
one Of the upper windows of the jail
Williams became enthusiastic and re-
marked to one Of his cellmates:
Il wonder if there is still snow on the
ground and if it's still cold outside"
When his cellmates looked with
surprise on the prisoner at hear
ing him speak, Williams shut his mouth
like clam and his cheeks colored to a
cherry red. He is accused of attempt
ing to rob H. Niepag, the jeweler in the
Moxum building on the night of Feb
ruary is, by filling his eyes full of cay
enne pepper. The jeweler threw both
arms around the neck of the young
holdup and held him until the arrival
of the police.
After ne had given his name to the
desk sergeant at police headquarters,
Williams began to feign insanity and
since then has pretended that he has
lost his vocal powers. He remained
mum TO all questions asked him in po-

FORMER ORPHAN SENDS
MONEY TO THE HOME
Pathetic, but Encouraging, Letter
Received by Altruistie Wo-
men ON the Board.

That the wealthy are not the only
ones who are interested in the work Of
providing a dome for the city's orphans
has been shown the women of the Or
phans' Home and Day Nursery board
in many ways, but in no one way more
touching or with finer effect than in
the following letter, which is only one
of the many expressions of kindness
and good will which have come to the
board members from those who were
unable to give largely of a generous In
come:
Mrs. A. J. Gorham,
Dear Madam.-In reading the news
papers I notice that the officers Of the
Orphans Home are contemplating
starting a dollar campaign for building
purposes. I was an orphan myself, and
being the youngest of the family 1 have
never known what it is to have faith
,er or mother. However, l was raised
in the finest orphans home in England,
namely THE Home for Little Boys ="
birmingham, near London. Enclosed
please find $100 toward the said fund.
and / hope in the near future to be
able to spare little larger amount.
Very sincerely, -"
No large sum which has been con-
tributed land there have been generous
gifts from the city's wealthy men), has
met with warmer appreciation on the
part of the women than has this dollar
which was enclosed in the letter.
The small sums which are daily CONF
ing in will be receipted for at Walkers
bank, but they may Of course be sent
ia to any OF tire officers Of the associa

to the county Jail has curied up like a
dog in his cell attempting most unrea-
sonable modes of insanity Since his
commitment to the county jail he has
not spoken a word until yesterday.
The first vocal efforts of the young
prisoner in two months are said TO have
been clear and resonant. Fellow pris-
oners say that the young man became
distinctly frightened by his own voice
after holding his tongue for nearly so
days. He opened his eyes wide and
covered his mouth with both hands

to eat dinner or supper yesterday.

tending not to know what a magazine

garments turned inside out, and has

SEND STEEL FOR
HANGING BALCONY
Improvement in County Clerks
Office Viii Be Rushed
to Completion.

Steel for the hanging balcony in the
county clerks office is now on the road
from st. Louis TO Salt Lake and is ex-
pected TO reach here the middle of next
week. A. S. Meserve, superintendent Of
the company which holds the contract for
the work, said yesterday that he would
put a force OF men to work on the hang
ing balcony the last of next week, prob
ably starting Friday night II work Is
started at that time il will take Friday
night, Saturday afternoon and night all
day Sunday TO complete the work. Some
preliminary work, such as drilling holes
in the walls for the steel floor pieces and
making arrangements for the rods hang
ing from the ceiling, viii be undertaken
before the steel arrives, to place every
thing in readiness
The hanging balcony will be on the
north wall of the clerks office, ten feet
high, and stretching nearly from the east
to the west walls OF the office. 1t VIII
protrude ten feet into the office. In this
space will be placed ali Of the old files
which have been kept since statehood and
before.
There is not sufficient room in the
clerks office for these files and for the
deputies at the same time With the file
cases on the hanging balcony, all OF the
clerks and deputies can be placed in the
main office, where Mrs. Margaret Zane
Witcher can keep her eye on them and
where they will have better accOmmoda-
tons. Many new filing cases VIII De puf-
chased, also The purpose is to keep all
of the files in suits pending in the dis
trict court and other records, more than
a year old, in the filing cases on the bal
cony, and only the late records on the
floor of the room.
Much difficulty has been experienced in
finding old records because Of the methods
of past days and the peculiar recording
in books. These old records have been
stored in q good many places, because of
the lack of room. and all will be hauled
out busted, arranged IN order and placed
in new filing cases, easily accessible for
those who are interested in the past court
and other history of the county.
All of the work IN building the balcony
will be done at night, as much as pos
sible, so as not to disturb the work in the
county clerks office. It is figured by
Superintendent Meserye that if work is
started Friday night that il can be con-
tinued Saturday afternoon-as there is
little work in the clerks office Saturday
afternoon as a rule-then all Saturday
night, Sunday and Sunday night, when he
thinks it will be completed.
With this work in progress in the
clerks office and the mechanics busy in
stalling the new elevator on the CITY side
the 5oint building will be disturbed from
its slumbers and awake to the fact that
there are things happening to its interior
the first real changes that have been
made In the building since its completion,
fourteen years ago.

me if they get an opportunity" shouted
Daniel Delaney, aged So years. a tele-
graph operator, as he staggered into
police headquarters yesterday morning

they think / have violated a confidence
of which ! am entirely innocent" added
the man, "and a bunch under the pro-
lection OF the agency is trying to get
me, and I have been followed several
DAYS"
The police recommended that several
DAYS in the cell would be better protec-
ton for Delaney and he was locked up
lessly under the influence OF liquor

Watch Them With oIass.

Take a magnifying glass and watch
when the worms begin to sting your
apples or eat on them, as they are very
small, and put a spray on Just that
often-it may be 20 days apart, and it
may be 30 days, according to the sea-
son, but four sprays put on right and
at the right time ought to give you 81
per cent free from worms in a very
wormy district.
1.-THE cry has been in the past that
I have sprayed or had some one else
spray for me and have had no results
from it In almost every instance you
have stood on the ground, 1 believe, and
thrown a mist of the poison over your
trees, or part way over them. You have
had a pump that would not give you
the force. You have sprayed at any old
time and not often the right time. You
have not studied the proper mixtures,
or you have depended on someone else
to mix and put it on for you who uses
the same mixture of poison as a cure
all.
awake to the conditions here and do
things right as we have a good out
look for fruit this year. And the mar
ket will be the same this year as it was
last in regard to wormy fruit. We, as
inspectors, will not allow wOrmy fruit
to be sold. in this county. We have
good support this year from the rail-
roads and commission men, as well as
the peddlers and storekeepers of this
county.
''This office is willing and anxious to
help all fruit growers in the work, to
make the fruit of Salt Lake county
known throughout the country. I have
some books on spraying which are full
Of information, and I will be pleased
to let any interested fruit man have

WARNS FRUIT MEN
TO POISON MOTHS
Horticultural Inspector Says
Apples Must Be Free
From Worms.
HOW TO USE SPRAYERS
oRcHARDIsT, HIMSELF, CAN DO
1T AS WELL AS EXPERT.

Intelligent spraying Of fruit trees is
held to be the keynote to success to
the fruit man, in a bulletin issued yes
terday, starting a campaign against
wormy fruit ia Salt Lake county.
Joseph c. Stay, county horticultural
Inspector, is more in earnest than ever
before The county inspector says the
rules against the sale of wormy fruit
on the Salt Lake market will be even
more strict this year than a year ago,
when many bushels were destroyed. His
instructions TO fruit men are;
~ would suggest that every man who
has more than a half acre of apple and
pear trees obtain a spray pump that
will give a pressure of about 1I5 pounds
and not less than $50 pounds, also %
feet of hose and bamboo rod II feet
long with a nozzle attached at an angle
of 40 degrees, having a bore of One-six-
tenth of an inch. Have platform so
you can almost be at a level with your
trees.
with this kind Of an outfit you are
prepared to fight the codling moth.
The next thing is to study the moth
and become acquainted with the best
time to exterminate it. Then go after
it yourself and not wait for someone
to come along who makes a business Of
the spraying, for ne can be at only a
limited number of places at the time the
first spray is needed, which is the most
important Of all the spraying, for four
fifths of your battle is fought and won
if you do the spraying right and at the
proper time.
Go After the Moth.
Now, get ready while you have the
time. Then mix your spray and go after
the moth in earnest. The first spray
should be put on as soon as the bios
SONS all fall while the calyx Of the ap-
pie is open. As most of the fruit is
pointing upward. 1t is necessary to be
elevated so you can shoot down on
them as well as in from the sides and
up from the bottom. If your trees are
not too large, you can do this very
handy without changing your position,
doing one side of a tree at once, then
coming back on the other side and re-
peating the dose.
you may use Paris green, one pound
to 12O gallons of water, which is a very
cheap spray, and if put On as directed
with force from the top you will get
good results. You cannot get the re-
suits from standing on the ground and
letting a mist fall on the trees. The
best way to tell If the work is done
right is to take a magnifyhIg glass and
see if you are depositing any of the poi
son in the calyx Of the fruit. If it
cannot be detected, II is a good sign
that you need more pressure or you
have left your spray too late. If the
poison is once put in there, it viii re-
main, as neither rain nor anything else
will get 1t out.
After the first spray and the fruit
gets about the size of a walnut, put on
your second spray, the mixture being
arsenate of lead at proportions Of about
six pounds to 12G gallons of water. This
is a cover spray and forms a coating
over the fruit.
