The man who did the shooting was
G. K. Dawson, a fireman on the Salt
Lake route. The tragedy happened
near the roadway to the rear of the
store of A. H. Norris. Six shots were
fired in all, one of which pierced the
heart of the victim.
The trouble is alleged to have been
one of long standing and grew out of
what Dawson claims to have been
Mahoney's determination to ruin his
home. 1t is claimed that Dawson
warned Mahoney. Anyway, the two
men met and Dawson pulled re-
volyer and began firing, with the
result stated. The slayer of Mahoney
gave himself up to Deputy Sheriff
Rex Matthew's soon after the shooting.

Washington, June 1.-The nom
nation of Louis ID. Brandeis TO
the supreme court to succeed the
late Joseph Rucker Lamar was
confirmed by the senate by vote
of AZ to p. The vote, taken with
out debate, ended one of the bit
terest contests ever waged against
a presidential nominee. Mr.. Bran
deis will be the first jew TO Oc-
eupy a seat on the supreme bench.
Only one democrat, Senator
Newlands, voted against confirm
alton. Three republican, Senators
La Toilette, Norris and P0index-
ter, voted with the democratic ma
j0rity, and Senators Gronna and
Clapp would have done so but
were paired with Senators Borah
and Kenyon.
Throughout the fight President
Wilson stood firmly behind his
nominee, never wavering when il
seemed certain that an unfavOr-
able report would be returned by
the senate judiciary committee.
The nomination Of Mr.. Bran
deis was sent to the senate Janu-
airy %. 1t was referred TO the ju-
dietary committee and immedi-
ately a flood of protests against
confirmation and memorials in ia
vor thereof began to pour in.

Berlin, June 5.-Twenty-six OF
the British 5 most powerful bat

modern Queen Elizabeth class,
and the entire British flying wing
composed of battle cruisers, equal
in every respect except armor pro

gagged in AT save the early stages
of the day battle in the North sea

count issued here today.
The account meets clearly what
is characterized as the British at
tempt to explain defeat by the
statement that the German forces
in action were much larger than
the British. Many details, howey-
er, are suppressed for strategic
reasons.
The fleet thus assembled says
the account, surpassed in tonnage
and weight of broadsides the Ger

equally modern and was far
speedier than the squadron of

British and German Fleets In
Greatest Naval Battle.

London, June 1.-The British
admiralty today announced that
a battle occurred in the North sea
between the British and German
fleets in when a number of Ger
man warships were sunk. The
battle occurred off the coast OF
Jutland. The German fleet avoid
ed the main British forces and re
turned to port severely damaged.
The British battle cruisers Queen
Mary, Indefatigable and Invine-
ible were sunk. The cruisers De-
Tense and Black Prince were also
sunk and the cruiser Warrior dis
abled. The German losses were
described as serious. Two Ger
man battle cruisers were sunk and
two German light cruisers disabl-
ed and probably sunk. The Brit
ish destroyers Tipperary, Turbu-
lent, Fortune, Sparrowhawk and
Ardent were lost and six others
are unaeeounted for. The admi-
rally says no British battleships
nor light cruisers were sunk.
The first reports of the heavy
loss of life, unhappily, have not
been revised. Great Britain
mourns more than 1000 of her best
seamen and the whole nation is
oppressed with sadness, which is
reflected in the faces Of all the
people OF London.
There were six thousand men
on the ships which sunk and only
a few hundred have been saved.

On June 14th, 1777, the 'Stars
and Stripes" BY act of Congress,
became the Official flag of the
United States. Previous to this,
at different times and on differ
emit occasions, numerous flags
nearly seventy, it is said, in num-
ber-had floated over the Colon

The Flag of the thirteen Unit
ed Colonies, which was first rails
ed at Washington headquarters
in Cambridge, Mass, january End,
1776, had thirteen stripes, alter
nate red and white, the union be-
ing the crosses of St. Andrew and
st. George ON a blue field; and
this flag, undoubtedly, carried
something of suggestion of the
Stars and Stripes.
In response to a request from
General Washington that a flag
should be adopted which would
enable the American vessles to
recognize each other, a committee /
was appointed by Congress to
take into consideration the de- |
signing of such a flag. Every
school boy knows the story of how
this committee, of which Wash
ington was a member, called on
Mrs. Betsy Ross, the widow of
John Ross, an expert needlewo-
man who conducted the uphol-
stery business at her hOme-the
house is now 239 Arch Street, be-
low Third Street, Philadelphia
and arranged with her TO make
flag. A design was shown her,
and she suggested that Washing
ton redraw it, which he did. You
remember how she also suggested
that the stars be five-pointed, and, i
taking a piece of paper, she fold
ed it deity, and, with a cut of
the scissors, showed how readily |
these five-pointed stars could be
made.
From the design as re-drawn,
was made the first tStar-Spangl-
ed Banner.
On the date mentioned, June {
14th, 1777, the committee report
ed to Congress, and the following
resolution was passed: "Resolv-
the flag of the Thirteen
United States be thirteen stripes,
red and white; that the 4
Union be thirteen stars, white in a n
blue field, representing new con- il
Btellation." c
At the time Of the adoption of t
his resolution, Washington said, v

Why Tolerate Catarrh?

You have noticed, no doubt, that any
cold aggravates nasal catarrh, and the
flow of mucous amazes you that such
Objectionable matter could find lodg
ment in your head. To ignore this
catarrh when the cold subsidies IS
wrong because it continues to slowly
injure the delicate Innings of the nasal
passages and clog them up.
To correct catarrh, cleanse the nos
trils frequently with a solution of warm
water and salt, insert vaseline on re-
firing, and take a spoonful of SCOTS
Emulsion after meals for one month.
SCOTS acts through the blood to feed
the tissues, and contains soothing
glycerine to check the Inflammation
and heal the sensitive membranes.
Scott is pleasant to take.

Men and women are urged to drink
each morning, before breakfast, a glass

100000 to occupy Vera Cruz. most of
this expense falling in the navy. Gen.
eral Funston, With his troops, went to
Vera Cruz some time after the navy
had bottled up the city, and his men
were engaged largely in police work
in and around the city proper.
The net balance in the general treas
ury at the present time is about $780,.
100000. This will not last long in any
general operation by United States
troops in Mexico should such become
necessary. There is general belief
here that the force of 5000 men max.
ing up the first troops to enter Mexico
on the chase is to be enlarged soon
