Important Rule.

CHARLESTON, Mar. IA = The
judgment of the circuit court of Bar
bour county was reversed in the case
of Delaney VS.. United States Elk

Tuesday. The court held that where
one carrier receives goods for trans

the end OF its carriage to another
carrier for carriage to destination,
the contract is several and there may
be a suit only against the carrier

decd of sale or lease was made to
the board of education for the lot on
which the school house was built,
and no memorandum of any agree
ment with Mrs. Harvey appeared on

since Mr.. Dixon being dead Mrs.
Harvey was not a competent witness
to prove the personal transaction be-

higher court held was not well

ORSON II. HEWLETT
AT WORK ON A SONG

Orson II. Hewlett, who is conceded by
his fellow manufacturers TO be one OF the
busiest boosters in Utah. has found a song
that he says he is determined to learn to
sing. 1t goes TO the tune of You Gotta
Quit Kickin' NY Dawg Aroun'."
Mr.. Hewlett says that he picked up the
composition from San Francisco news
paper, and he declares it TO be so much
worth while that at least the two leading
verses of II should be adopted for Utah
products week. They run like this;
Every time you come to town
And start 10 throw your money aroun',
Say: Home made goods are the goods for
me-
Because they spell prosperity
"A dollar you send to the eastern store
Says: Good by, Bill for evermore;'
But the dollar you spend with the home
made sound
Keeps comm and a-comin' and aeon
in around"
There is more Of the song. but the other
verses are fitted to California's purpose,
yet a little improvision in the same meteor,
rs meeting Utah's wants. is intended by
Mr.. Hewlett He is trying TO get some
genius at work TO round out a complete
