MARRIAGE CLUBS THE RAGE.

Salt Lake City, Utah.-Marriage
clubs have become a popular source
of amusement in the towns of south
ern Utah. Gathering tn eidea from
a town in Kansas, eighteen bachelors
Of Mercur, Utah, made an appeal
through the press for helpmeets. A
young woman's club at Mount Pleas
ant responded that its members were
willing to love, honor and, if neces-
sary obey the Mercur bachelors.
At this juncture the young ladies of
Mercur at a social gathering adopted
resolutions advising the Mount Pleas
ant club to find husbands at home.
Word came from Mammoth, in Juab

which are pure decaptions, were as
every day phenomena to them com

they had just seen.
Prof, Patty, with his experiments,

With it he pulverized carnations,

Joseph II. Choate, the late ambas-

in New York with a young Hewbrew
attorney, who, when the case had
been won, felt uncertain as to what
he should charge for his services. He
decided to ask the advice of the Sc

That's all right my boy" said
Choate, kindly; "I'll attend to it. 1
am about to send in my BILL and 1
will just double the amount and send
you a check for your half"
In q few days the young Hebrew
received a check which was ten times
as big as the amount he had thought
would be due him. He Immediately

delight and gratitude, and in a post

THAT FAMOUS
SPENST CASE
Judge Cowan Gives an interview
AtDevils Lake Stating Cause
for Granting Writ.

Newspapers in this district opposed to
Judge Cowan, are making considerable
stir about the release of one Jacob
Spenst, who was convicted of a violation
of the prohibition law in Cavalier
county some three months ago. For
the purpose of getting at the exact facts
The World had an interiew with the
judge upon the case and publishes here
his statement of the case, verbatim:
"You ask me about the Jacob Spenst
case, from Cavalier county I will say
that I have never learned how to try a
lawsuit in the newspapers, as so many
lawyers seem able to do these days.
"The facts are just these: Spenst
applied to me, in the absence from the
state of Judge Kneeshaw, for a writ of
habeas corpus against the sheriff of
Cavalier county. I was acting for
Judge Kneeshaw at his written request
and issued the writ, as was my duty.
The return of the sheriff showed to me
conclusivly that Spenst was unlawfully
restrained of his liberty and that this
had continued for considerable length
of time. l granted him the benefit of
that great safeguard of liberty, the writ
of haoeas corpus. and set him free"
'Spenst lives in Cavalier county and
if am wrong in my judgment as to the
law tho authorities tboro oop rory o,c,l :,
arrest him again on the same grounds
as before and bring him before some
other judge. to see whether he should be
held or not but l don't think they will
They would perhaps, rather try Spenst
and myself IN the newspapers instead.
II feel that only did my duty under
the law in this case, to man whom
did not know but who seemed to me
to have been unjustly dealt with. felt
that we lived in the UnitedStates rather
than in Russia. and that man cannot be
held in jail except as provided by law.
Il hav- usually been criticised for be
ing too strict with men charged will
violation of the law, but I supposed
some of my enemies and politica
opponents think this case will make
good political "dcpe" against me aDe
SO they want to try it out in the news
papers. My conscience tells me I die
the right thing under the law in tn,
