A local newspaperman was asked why a

Vl?n .,f sovcral lys luid elapsed slnco the.
nti'.icK. ,
The reporter wan reminded of the story
oi a newspaper lorrespondpni In southern
Illinois who had been asked bv a Chicago
pi per to send In a report of a mine dis
aster, lhat correspondent had not been
cccustomed to Incident so exciting, and It
required him somo time to got himself
together. He merely telegraphed the Chi
cago paper:
"All Is excitement!"
That In a way explains the omission of
the. bulldog story.
Dr. Wilcox had been called on to ex
plain several serious charges against his
administration. He had told a friend that
he was "loaded" for his accuser", and tho
importer was not expecting tho doctor to
spring the kind of a sensation that ho did.
A moment after ho was called on to
nurgo himself ho took the door, and look
ing into the eye of the Councilman who
had been the most vigorous in his denun
ciation of tho Health Commissioner, ho
used some language that in some coun
tries might lend to a funeral. At this
moment lie reached toward a corner and
produced a club which looked at that In
stant soven or eight times larger than it
It was as lonpr as a walking stick and as
heavy as a ball bat.
From that time the reporter lost his
equipoise. He remembers hearing broken
sentences of the doctor's narrailvo and
recalls the manner in which tho officer
brandished that club, but the light with
the bulldog was the tamest part of thu
Incident at that moment. And In reflect
ing on what might have happened if iho
Councilman had not backed down the re
porter forgot all about the belated story
of the- fight with the dog.
It was told that tho Councilman had his
pockets full of evldenco against tho
Health Commissioner, and It Is now sus
pected that he. too, had had no Intima
tion that Dr. Wilcox had fought with a
bulldog, but had brought the club along
with him to back up ills statements In the
good old way.
It Is possible that the- Sanitary commit
tee of the Council would have taken tho
elector at bis word if he hud left that elub
at home1 and had merely produced some of
the clothes which he said had been torn
Iitto shreds, but it Is qulto certain that, the
presence of the elub and the color of tho
i de'etor's eyo made it mucjh easier for the
offending member of the Council to bo
ccnvlnce'd.

CREDIT MEN W!LL
ENJOY A BANQUET
Many Prominent Business Men of
Utah Will Gather in Annual
Function. .
INVITATIONS have been sent out to
sixty guests for the second annual
banquet 01 the Utah Association
of Credit Men, which'will odcur at
the Commercial club tonight. The
guests will Include prominent business
men of Salt Lake, Provo, Ogden and
other Utah and Idaho trade centers.
The affair promises to be a decidedly
joyous one, and after the annual stock
holders' meeting, which takes place at
tho Commercial club at S:30 p. m., one
and all will be Impressed that any one
who talks business will be liable to a
line In the form of, a speech or a song.
The newly elected I officers for the en
suing year also will be expected to rise
and burst forth Into speech.
The year Just closing has been an
extremely prosperous one for this asso
ciation, which numbers the leading
wholesalers, jobbers and merchants of
the State among Its members. During
the past twelve months the Utah Asso
ciation of Credit Men has acted In the
capacity of trustee for over fifty firms
who have been in financial straits, and
in this manner has wound up affairs
at the minimum of publicity and ex
pense there being but few assign
ments and still less bankruptcy pro
ceedings. In addition tho association
has been a factor in tiding over several
merchants during periods of financial
embarrassment. During the past year
the association has handled over ?200,
000 ensh In this manner for clients and
has wound up several of the biggest
failures that have occurred for some
time in a manner satisfactory to all
concerned.
While the essential object of the as
sociation is to furnish trade reports to
the wholesalers, It has established n
leclslative committee, which makes it
its business to head off all pernicious
laws relative to buslnoss affairs from
being enacted.
While last year's banquet was a suc
cess, tonight's function, promises to
surpass previous efforts both from the
point of attendance and that of a gen
eral festive time. Staid business men
arc expected to banish dull cai'e ancl
plunge Into the vortex of bon mots,
gastronomic; Joys and a general flow of
soul and Incidentals.
The outgoing officers, some of whom
will be undoubtedly called upon
again for another year of active ser
vice, are: Orson H.' Hewlett, presi
dent; John J. Judson. vice-president;

DESERTER MUST PAY
TO GET BACK TO NAVY
No anxiety is manifested by tho United

afternoon. The navy has been going right

The following was received- from Wash
ington, yesterday:
"Please release F. Scott. Must return
to Ms. vessel at bin own expense. "
Scott Is now convinced that republics
are Indeed ungrateful. He had boon hid
ing luid dodging policemen for three
weeks, and finally decided to surrender
and thus snvo the authorities tho trou
ble of looking for him longer. Now they

LITTLE IS KilQWN
OF ALPINE CREEK
Local Experts Are Not Enthusiastic
Over the Prospect of City
Power Plant.
vrajATEK power experts of this city,
ufi while with one accord cxpress
f y ing the desire to avoid appear
ing In tho attitude of "knock
ing" the Garff & Sons lighting proposi
tion now under consideration by tho
CItj' Council, are plainly not favorably
Impressed with the scheme for procur
ing power which the Gurffs have In
view. The American Fork proposition,
some of them claim, must be elimi
nated entirely from the reckoning, for
the reason that the Utah County Light
and Power company has the best pow
er location on that stream, and is un
able to guarantee a greater minimum
than 400 horsepower.
This leaves the Garffs with only the
power to be developed from Alpine
creek on which to depend for running
their lighting plant, so far as their
plans have been disclosed. Alpine
creek Is a very small mountain stream
which heads in the vlclnit' of Lone
peak and empties Into Utah lake below
Lehi. Its drainage area can hardly
exceed thirty-two square miles, and
may be as small as fifteen square biles.
From the fact that the creek is abso
lutely dry the greater part of the sum
mer season, the minimum of power to
hn tcrvfri frnm tViot nnrnv unrlAt r-v-
isling- conditions must be- placed at
nothing, with the underfiow, which It Is
proposed to utilize, a decidedly uncer
tain quantity.
"Utilization of the underflow of a
stream for power purposes Is expensive
under the most favorable circum
stances," said a well-known engineer
'yesterdaj', "and I can't believe that
practical men would back that kind
of a scheme with a great deal of capi
tal. If these men are going back on
Alpine creek far enough to get a head
of H00O feet In a distance of a mile and
a half, it stands, to reason that they
arc getting at an elevation where there
Is comparatively little water, either
above or below the surface of the
ground. I should certainly consider
the scheme Impracticable, but so long
as the matter is before Council It is for
it to render the decision on that point.
It Strikes mo that even Parley's creek
would be much better for this purpose
than Alpine creek. It is certain that
I as much or more power could be de
veloped, and the loss from transmis
sion would be very much less."
For the purpose of inspecting the
sites proposed by Messrs. Garff & Sons
for the municipal lighting plant the
members of the City Council and other
city officials will go to American Fork
on Wednesday. Two competent ex
perts will be taken along to Judge of
the feasibility of the project The
Councilmen expect to leave Salt Lake
at S o'clock in the morning, visit the
sites 011 American Fork river and on
Alpine creek, and return to the city In
the evening.

HIGH SCHOOL CADETS ?

Capt. Ncldon, did some sklrmlsbiriF
work which was amusing and equally
Interesting. Cupt Clawson at the nca,Mj
of company C scaled a wall by pyraJ
mlds of men. Capt. Stephens did somaj :
flank and counter marching Trmcny. t
showed considerable skill and pre-Jl i
clslon. All tho cadets were supplledf, t
with a round of blanks, and at the con-f t
oluslon of the various exhibitions they
Indulged In an amusing but excltlnff k
sham battle. .
This Is the last exhibition drill nC"l
will be given by the cadets during thlsjh
year, and consequently a large number!
of eighth grade graduates and friends!
of the cadets were on hand. .$'
The All Hallows cadets were nleoj;
present to review the exhibition. It Is?,
more than likely that the collegian brl-I
gade will accompany the high schoolj
cadets on their Lagoon encampment. (
which will commence May 31. This isi
the first encampment that the cadets .
have ever planned, but their succcssj
has been such that they have positive-!; t
ly decided to make the encampment an fe
annual affair.
