WILL INVESTIGATE THE : EFFECT OFCIGARETTES Boys at the High School Want To Be "Shown."
HIT BY JUDGE BROWN.
A number of students at high school have taken exception to the opinion expressed by Judge Brown of Salt Lake City, to the effect that boys smoking cigarettes do not make as good grades as those who do not use tobacco and they have appointed a committee to investigate the situation. The committee will make a thorough examina
tion of the record of grades kept by
Principal Ellabarger and- will then fig
ure the average of those smoking eig
arettes and see how it compares with those who do not indulge. The com
mittee which will do the work are all
tophomores, as follows: Fred Crowa
Karl Allison and Phares Hiatt." Two

The report of the committee is await

.ludge II row n spoke at the high
tchool during the past week and he did not handle many of tho modern lugh school lads kindly. He criticised their largo trousers, cigarette smoking and several other practices which lo the average layman seem freakish. Judge Brown is a juvenile jurist of note, and for this reason his remarks "had more than ordinary weight.
MAKES A THIRD TRIP; WIFE NOT ON HAND Tom Wiggs Says He Will Not Come Again.
The late Professor Jowett had a curlew way of commenting on the work that was brought to Mm by students. On one occasion he was shown a set of J reek verses. After looking them over carefully he glanced up rather blankly and said to the author, "Have you any taste for mathematics?"
IS GOING TO MOVE TO OHIO. Tom Wiggs of Fountain City made his third and iast visit to the court house today for the purpose of being divorced. Mrs. Wiggs, who brought the suit, for the third time failed to put in an appearance. Mr. Wiggs is disgusted and discouraged. In the
future if Mrs. Wiggs desires to secure a divorce she must do so without the co-operation of her husband. Mrs. Wiggs now resides in Hush county. She has evidently forgotten that she has a divorce suit pending as the three times it has been called for hearing she has neglected to be among those present. Tom has at all times been present to lend a help
ing hand. , "Mrs. Wiggs has evidently decided that she does not want a divorce," remarked a reporter to Mr. Wiggs. "It looks that way, but I want one," replied Mr. Wiggs grimly. "This is my third and last trip to Richmond for the purpose of getting
a divorce, he continued. "I am going
to move to Greensboro, O., so it won't do any good for the sheriff to summon me here again to appear in the divorce case. I will be a resident of
Ohio and I will not have to answer his summons." The "cabbage patch" case, as It is familiarly known to lo-
Despite the fact that the "gentle'
spring weather today was suggestive
of polar bears and arctic expeditions.
there was an immense crowd attended
the afternoon performance of the Bar
num and Bailey show, "the greatest on
earth." Hundreds of people from all over this part of the country were in
the city today. The only thing mi sing was the parade.
That time honored feature of the cir
cus is now obsolete. It has gone
down before the march of progress.
The old glamor of the crash of rapid
fire circus bands, the rumbling of the
cage wagons, the antics of the clown in
his pony cart, the awkward progress
of the elephants with their gaudy trappings and the soul rending shrieks of the calliope all of these were miss
ing and were missed.
But the show. It is really and truly
a circus. There is pink lemonade, loud-mouthed freak show "barkers," peanut venders and just miles and miles of canvass. There will be an
other big crowd at the show tonight.
Owing to the fact that the parapherna
lia used in the "Dip of Death" and the "ski-sailing acts is quite cumbersome,
these two nerve-thrilling, spine-shiver
ing acts will be put on first tonight
and to see these two acts it will be
necessary for those who attend to be
on hand promptly when the show
opens. From the grand parade, the pageant of the nations, at the beginning, until
the exciting hippodrome races, which
concluded the performance, there
was one continuous conglomeration of
sights which thoroughly taxed the attention of the hundreds of spectators who filled the great tent at the after
noon performance.
The pageant was the most gorgeous spectacle that has ever been presented
by any circus aggregation. The Barnum and Bailey shows enjoy one advantage in this effect of splendor, they give no street parade and therefore, the costumes, performers, paraphernalia and other equipment does not suffer from the unnecessary display. Ev
erything and everybody looks clean
and fresh and the performance starts
with a vigor which is greatly appreci
ated by the spectators.
It w-ould be next to an impossibility
to particularize in a review of the performance. There was just enough of everything to be satisfying and give one the feeling that the money's worth
had been received. The feature of the show, of course, Is Miss Isabelle Butler, in her daring act entitled "The Dip of Death." Truly has it been named. The "Ioop-the-loop" and kindred acts were considered an invitation to death, but Miss Butler made the hundreds of spectators shudder and shut their eyes hoping for the
best. "Are you ready?" nouncer.
"All ready," called Miss Butler, seat
ed in an auto"at the top of the tent. An attendant cut a rope, and whizz
bang bang! and it was all over Miss
Butler had stared death in the face and
landed safely again in the land of the
living. She traversed a half circle in an auto, which was attached to a
track, then the machine plunged into space, made a turn and landed on another half moon arrangement and sped its occupant to safety. As the daring
performer was lifted from the car the
chee:-s of the hundreds applauded her
wonderful act. It was truly marvelous. Another sensational feature is the act of Capt. Carl Howelsen, which Is called 'Ski-Sailing."
THE EXPECTED SUPPORT IS NOT FORTHCOMING Separation of the Marianas Is Now Certain. TOM JOHNSON'S DAUGHTER.
New York, May 11 Separation between Mrs. Bessie Johnson Mariana, daughter of Mayor Tom Johnson, of Cleveland and Frederick Mariana, is now certain. There is little chance of reconciliation. While she had no illusions of wealth of Mariana, she ex
pected him to support her modestly
and nothing more. On the other hand
he expected her to support him lav
ishly. Her ideas are based on the
sound American plan that it is a man's duty to support his family and not vice
versa. -

San Francisco, Cal., May 11. The
street railway strike has developed in
to a fight to a finish. .Neither side Is willing to accept arbitration, and the citizens' committee appointed to se
cure industrial peace has been unable
to find any basis of settlement. It has
been demonstrated that the present po
lice force Is inadequate and that strong
er measures will be necessary to in
sure a general resumption of service if
the struggle is conducted on present
lines.
The wish of the United Railroads of
ficials was to run a string of cars from
the barns at Oak and Broderick, through the burned district and north
on Market street to the ferry building
but the consent of the police department could not be obtained. As a
compromise two cars were twice run
&9 far into the burned district as Lar
kin street.
On the first trip mounted police act
ed as outriders and more than a score of patrolman rode in automobiles, but
no violence was offered by the crowds.
On the second trip the mounted officers were withdrawn as an experiment to determine the temper of the crowd. Missiles were hurled from buildings and several persons were injured.
Assistant President Mulally said he
had several hundred strike breakers, motormen and conductors, quartered in the company's barns and that they are competent to operate practically the entire street car system. Mayer Schmitz said the police department fs
competent to cope with the situation."
Chief of Police Dinan said his men
will preserve order.
Meantime the population of San
Francisco is deprived of street car ser
vice .subjected to the alternative of
walking or paying five prices for an
execrable wagon service.

day afternoon when crushed under the
pedal coverings of hundreds of rest
less base ball bugs, called "fanatics by some authorities and "fans" by others. Our" demon athletes will be
sicked on the Panhandle White Sox of Columbus, O. As the Quakers are near champions and the White Sox
are real for sure champs much do
ings may be looked for. The locals are in mid-season form with the exception that the cracked ice atmosphere has not yet permitted them to have their hair cropped off at the roots. Manager Jessup will receive bids from local hair artists for this contract as soon as the weath
er permits. If old man Winter is not
given a decent and final burial soon
it will be necessary to supply our
demons with football head coverings and ear muffs.
Horn Will Start It. Mr. B. Horn, inventor of the vapor
float and other minor slants, will be

The Arctic Has Attractions. I cannot imagine," said the woman with the short sleeves, "why in the world Eskimos live in their country after they have learned what is to be had and seen in civilized places. Just think! They have no theaters, no hotels, no trains, no street cars, no shops. bo schools, no churches, no clubs, no yachts, no scandals they positively have nothing that we have." "Possibly that is the reason they stay where they are.' ventured the man with the dinner jacket.-Judge.

A Simple RifU Target and the Way to
Practice.
The first moving target that I would
recommend is one that is simplicity it
self and yet, with the assistance of a
gentle Eloping hill and a friend to take
turns with you, will be of great value
and benefit. One of the most success
ful deer hunters I know trained this way, and you will readily see the good
points of this practice on trial of it
Secure half a dozen barrel heads for
your partner. Have him take a position at the top of the hill and roll these heads down the slope diagonally. At
first it will be best to select a fairly smooth slope and have the targets roll
ed down at a medium rate. At fifty to seventy-five yards take your position, according to your gun and ammunition. If it is a 22, a somewhat smaller target might be used at a little shorter distance. At your signal one of these targets is started on Its journeys. As it starts bring the gun to the shoulder, taking aim and swinging with the moving object. Always aim to hit the center of the object. You will find that the eye naturally seeks the center, just as it is nature for one to see the front sight through the center of the peep. Do not attempt to hold your gnn at a point the target will pass and try to pull the trigger while it passes, but pull when the aim has been secured, just as when firing at a stationary object.

Where the "Brave" Excelled. Bloodthirsty, vindictive, treacherous, crafty, scornful of suffering, brave unto death when at bay, more cunning than the fox and of infinite patience cn the trail, the Indian has proved more than a match for the whites in the jungle. It is certain that more whites than savages have perished in forest fighting. But in a set battle the red man is without steadfastness and perseverance. The least reverse disheartens him. After the first mad rash his purpose wanes, and the slightest check Is apt to dispirit his capricious mind. Lynn Tew gprague In Outing Magazine.
Some Remarkable Exploits Credited tc
Shooters of Arrows. The expression '"drawing a long bow"
does not of necessity mean the telling of a falsehood. It sometimes refers to
wonderful story which may be true
enough, but which is so marvelous a: to require a firm trust in the verncit;
of the narrator to enable the hearer t
believe it. Some of the longest bows f this sort have been drawn about
bows and arrov.-f.
These stories began long ago. Vir
gil in tho "JZneid'' tells of four arch
ers who were shooting for a prize, the mark being a pigeon tied by a cord to the mast of a ship. The first man hit the mast, the second cut the cord, and the third shot the pigeon as it flew away. The fourth archer, having nothing left to shoot, drew his bow and sent his arrow flying toward the sky with such speed that the friction of the air set the feathers on fire, and
it swept on like a meteor to disappear
In the clouds.
The stories told of Robin Hood's
archery, illustrated by his wonderful
performance as Loeksley in Scott's
"Ivanhee," are al a decided stra'n
upon modern credulity. The famous
story of William Tell, doubted by many persons, is believed by others to have a foundation of fact. There was a Dane named Foke of whom the same story is to!d. and William of Cloudesley, an Englishman, is said to hare shot an apple from his son's head merely to show hi? expertness. Most stories of bows and arrows relate to the accurate aim of the archers, but a Frenchman, Blaise de Yigenene tells one that shows the tremendous force with which an arrow may be propelled if the bow be strong and long enough. According to his own account of the matter, he saw Barbarossa, a Turk, admiral of a ship called the Grand Solyman, send au arrow from his bow right through a cannon ball. Whether the cannon ball had a hole
through it or not he neglects to inform
us, probably not considering so trifling a matter worth mention.
Perhaps the most astounding of all
stories about arrow shooting is that of
the Indians that used to inhabit Flor
ida. It is said that a group of them would form a circle, then one would throw an ear of Indian corn into the air. The rest would shoot at it and
shell it of every grain before it fell to the ground. Sometimes the arrows would strike it so hard and fast that it wonld remain suspended in the air
t f or several minute?, and the cob never
fell until the last grain had been shot away. It is BU,ch stories as this which fully justify the use to which the expression "drawing the long bow Is sometimes put. Chicago News.
