AGED MAN ACCUSES
WOMAN OF FRAUD
Francis j. Parton Says He Lost Real
Estate by Signing Paper Which
Was a. Deed.

Francis j. Parton, aged 20 years,
filed suit in the district court yester-
day against Sarah T. Mansfield, aged
SO years, asking to have set aside a
deed of transfer on the ground that he
had been induced by fraud and mis-
representation to sign it.
il is set out in the suit that from
last February to last July the plaintiff
and defendant lived together as man
and wife, but that in July he dis
covered that he had not been properly
divorced from his first wife, Elizabeth
Parton. Accordingly the couple sepa-
rated temporarily, but with the under
standing that they should have legal
ceremony performed as soon az the
plaintiff secured final divorce papers
from his first wife.
Pending this consummation Of their
purpose, it is charged, the Mansfield
woman induced Parton to sign a paper
which he supposed was but copy of
paper describing certain real estate in
Salt Lake which he owned. After sign
ing it he discovered. it is charged, that
he had signed deed Of transfer.
Parton sets out his domestic en-
tanglements in order to show that the
defendant is not his wife. 1t is not
possible under the law to have deed
TO ones wife set aside on such grounds,

Proper mbustion.

The final combustion OF the fixed car
bon of the fuel necessitates the ac-.
cess OF the proper amount Of air to
each particle OF the red hot portion.
The complete combustion OF the fixed
carbon produces carbon dioxide which
consists OF one part OF carbon TO
two parts OF oxygen. Incomplete COM
bustion results IN the production OF
carbon monoxide which Is O. gas con-
sisting OF one part of carbon and one
part of oxygen. The former gas Gear
bon dioxide) Is an inert nom poison
Gus gas. whereas the latter gas (car-
bon monoxide) is poisonous.
Carbon dioxide gas after being once
produced may be reconverted to car
bon monoxide. If 1t passes over or
through the red hot coke with an
insufficient air supply, the change
from dioxide TO rnonoxide being caused
by a combination between the carbon
dioXlde gas and carbon.
Carbon rnonoXide gas may be con-
Verted to dioxide provided II comes
in contact with oxygen at Il suffi-
ciently high temperature otherwise
the additional Air will simply dilute
the monoXide and the air and gas
will pass out Of the stack uncon-
sumed.
Now that the three funda re-
qulrements OF proper combustion,
namely, proper air supply. proper
temperature for ignition. and proper
mixing Of the air supply with the
fuel, have been pointed out, they can
be taken up In order In subsequent

MAY STANDARDZE
CADET UNIFORMS
Board of Education Takes
Up Problem and Provokes
Some Spirited Debate.

An attempt to standardizc the cadet
uniforms worn by the high school ca
j dets will be made by the board of edu
cation A special committee consist
ing of superintendent d.. III. Christen
sen, Principal George A Eaton and Ia
Il. Judd. clerk of the board, was ap
pointed last night to prepare standard
/ specifications and TO call for bids from
local clothicrs ON those specifications
The board will lend the weight of its
| recommendation TO the successful bid
der
The motion that this action be taken
was the occasion of vigorous protest
from A. ID. McMullen, who declared
that he was not only opposed to the
board interfering in the matter of
choice Of uniforms, but was strongly
against the military training at the
| high school at all He declared that
the military course but added to the
| heavy burden Of citizens who were
sacrificing on every hand to give their
boys an education. He voted against
the motion, declaring that he hoped
to see the whole system abolished 1T
an early date
Oscar w. Moyle also voiced his op-
position to the military training, but
explained TO Mr. McMullen that the
was but an attempt to make the train
ing as inexpensive as possible to the
parents.
j. II. Hammond, president of the
board, explained that the idea behind
the appointment of the special COM
mittec was to establish an equality
among the cadet battalious that WIS
lacking now. He said that for lack
of standard of specifications for uni
forms some cadets were paying much
more than others for their uniforms
and the result was a decided lack of
uniformity in the uniforms.
On recommendation of the commit
tee on teachers and school work, the
board decided TO include course of
cooking in the night school classes
aud to employ a special instructor for
this work. Pupils enrolling III this
course will be required to pay FOR the
raw materials used in their work.
An appropriation of $500 was made,
to be at the disposal Of the superin-
tendent Of schools, for engaging promi-
nent educators to lecture at the pub
lie schools from time TO time. The
purchase of moving picture lantern
at cost Of $500 also was authorized.
The motion picture apparatus will be
used in connection with studies at the
technical high school and also for gen.
eral purposes in the schools,
On Recommendation OF the special
coal committee it was decided to in
vite all local dealers who submitted
bids last June to submit proposals for
the furnishing of 5000 tons of Utah
slack, screened coal for the 19l3-l4
school year. The board decided
week ago TO accept the uniform price
offered by the alleged local coal com
hine and. the bio coal order probably
will be divided more or less equally
among the various dealers who COM
ply with the specifications. The board
will have to pay 1925 ton for the
coal

report last night, showing an
overdraft OF $l94,472 81,
