Lost a Point and Gained a Point

A committee representing the
Commercial club and the county
consisting of l.. X.
Walbridge, l. Baer and w. s. Mont
gomery were In Denver several days
This week trying to induce the In
diana automobile tourists to send
portion Of their party over the road
from Rifle through Meeker and Ver-
nal to Salt Lake. They were accom-
panied by G. b. Cook representing
the Vernal Chamber of Commerce.
While they did not succeed In divid-
ing the auto party they obtained
a promise from Mr.. A. L. Westgard,
vice president and official pathfinder
of the American Automobile Asscia-
tion, that on his return In September
he would stop over at Rifle and ac-
company delegation from the Com
mercial club over the route and re-
port officially to the American Auto
mobile Association, and also to the
Manufacturers association, which lat

Thie arrangement assures An off,
ciaf Investigation 81 the white river
route this fall, which II everything
that could be desired. 1t means
that Notwithstanding the powerful
influences working in behalf Of
the Grand Junction desert route,
the White River Uintah route
will eventually be chosen rs the Off
cial transcontinental route because Of
the superior advantages 1t offers to
auto tourists in the way of scenery,
good fishing and hunting, practically
a water grade all the way and an alb
sence of sand and desert alkali. Be-
sides all this, the distance is much
shorter, the grades easier and the
country is more thickly populated.
The American Automobile Associ-
alton has raised fund of $lO,OOO,OOO
which will be expended at the rate
of 5000 a mile, or as much thereof as
may be necessary in surfacing the
road which shall finally be designa-
ted as the official transcon tinental
highway.

CITY FOR WATER BILL

Under threat of court procedure,
Abraham D. Marks, a real estate
agent, with offices in the Metropoli-
tan building, today settled with the
water department a bill of $2S03 for
back water rent on tenements at 1922
394 Central avenue.
The bill in question is for water
furnished during a part of last year
and because of Marks failure to set
tie the claim, thirty-two families oc-
cupying the apartments were left
without water from Wednesday until
noon ON Saturday, the connection
having been discontinued by the
water department
Upon learning of the incident Mayor
Jacob Haussling Immediately ordered
the water supply resumed, assuming
personal responsibility for the pay~
ment of the bill Tt was at his re-
quest that the water was again
turned on.
It now develops that there is
further claim of 81 against the prop
erty, the amount charged by the de-
partment whenever 1t is necessary to
shut the water off. Marks has been
notified to this effect.
David Holmes, chief accountant OF
the water department, declared to-
day that the authorities would in
woke every means in the future 10
compel the prompt payment of water

STAFF GIVES WELCOME
TO REAL ESTATE MAN

When Philip j. Bowers, the promi-
nent local real estate man, returned
to his office at 1879 Market street this
morning for the first time since his
seven months wedding tour abroad,
he found his office beautifully deco
rated with ferns and flowers as
welcome from his office employees.
His desk held four immense bouquets
of American Beauty roses and two
huge vases of peonies stood on the
floor in front. This was well set off
by large palms standing in the back
of the office. A white silk ribbon
with the words Welcome Back"
stretched across the front of his
desk.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bowers were received
by a large number of friends when
they alighted from the White Star
liner Cedric at pier No. 60 last Sat-
urday. During their trip they visited
nearly every country in Europe, but
both were glad to return to America.
Mr.. and Mrs. Bowers We're married

the Norwegian fur clothes, as the lat

stiff, while the Esquimau made fur
clothes are not really tanned. They
are just scraped on the flesh side

JANE GOOD PROPHET AND
FINE AT MAKING A PLEA

Two years ago Jane Savage, who
had been sentenced to serve two
years in jail. sung merry little
ditty about when the roses bloom

Herr in the Second Precinct Police
Court. She said that at the time in
dicated she would again appear be-
fore him.
Jane is good at predicting. She
was released from the penitentiary
yesterday morning, arrested last
night and arraigned today.
When Jane was arrested for being
drunk two years ago she was SEN
fenced to serve for a year because
she was an habitual offender. Her ell
oquence was so touching, however.
that Acting Judge Oehring paroled
her.
Arrested again, she was sentenced
again. This time the sentence stood
Jane was so peeved that she allowed
a little of her picturesque language
to float in the direction of the judge,
and she was given two years.
For good behavior her term was
shortened two months and she was
released yesterday morning, only to
be arrested in Broad street for in
! toxication a few hours later
Her ready eloquence won freedom
for her under suspended sentence. She
said that she had found u position in
New York and that she would go
right over there and that she would
not touch another drop of liquor or
New Jersey soil, and that she would
remember the judge forever in her
prayers if he would be so kind and
good and noble as to let her go. He

THE reports show that pigs figured

seems that the armies went through

product, and the soldiers subsisted
largely on pigs, saving a large item
