DID LITTLE BOY LIE?.
Friend of Bement Pamily Says They
Have Been Misrepresented.
A. short time aero appeared the ac
count of a sniuQ boy at the police sta
tion, his crime being that of taking: a
wagon from In front of a store and at
tempting to dispose of the goodn. He
fell asleep ut the station beside a
little clog, which he had ulso acquired In
a questionable manner. Before doing
so, he made the assertion that ho wished
the authorities -would send him to
the reform school, as he was abused at
home. Now comes a friend of the family
who claliny that the boy lma a vivid
his tale of woe. The article In ques
tion appeared September -30, telling of
the arrest of Douglas Bement, aifd his
story of mistreatment.
"As a person lntimattly acquainted
with the facte In. the case," said the
friend of the family to which Master
Bement belongs, "I should llko to ay
a few wordy. The child told a pathetic
story of mistreatment, to which the po
lice and reporters 'gave- a sympathetic
ear. 1 should like to say that he never
really received a severe punishment In
his life, and the story of his being-horse-whipped
was an absolute falye
hood. "Since-he hay been, old enough to go
anywhere, he hits been a source of con
tinual annoyance and worry to the
family, who hardly ever knew his
w hereabouts from morning- until night.
He told at the station of his preferring
the reform school to returning home.
When he did reaeh home that night his
mind had undergone a very radlcul
change.
"The family deserves some considera
tion In' another way The child is
no connection of theirs, and yeL they
have fed. clothed and cared for him for
almost nine years, with no help from
his relatives, although he lias a great
many In this town who are people of
wealth and influence. Tils father and
mother are alive, and yet the dlsgraco
of this aiTair falls upon this family who
have done their best to bring him up In
the wuy he should go."
WOOL GROWERS IN LUCK.
Wool Purchased on Sheep's 3ack at
an Advanced Prico.
Wool growers of L'tah and Idaho we
good tlmey ahead for next year. East
ern buyers being already 1n the Held
in great numbers contracting, for the
1905 clip at prices from 2 to 6. cents In
advance of the prices paid this year.
Offers of 5 cents a pound were mude
tight from tht start, and a few ranch
men have disposed of their next season's
wool crop at 18 cents. The ruling price
this year was from 12Vs to 13Vj cents.
It Is not apparent that anyone lu
gelling a corner on the market, for
all of the old-time firms and some new
ones have buyers In the Held. It Is evi
dent, however, that the 1903 wool crop
will be owned by the middlemen long
befqre it leaves the sheep's backs. The
buyers are preserving discreet silence
In regard to the cause of their
anxiety to lake chances on the future of
tho wool market, at advanced prices,
but it la only natural that the high price
of cotton should tend to increase the de
mand for wool, while the continued war
lu the far East is also doubtless having
some effect. Considering the fine con
dition In which Utah sheep will enter
the winter the coming year promises to
be prosperous, indeed, for the flock-owners.

Killed a Big Bear
Rear Farmingfon
Bruin Was Peacefully Picking Ber
ries When John Bentrod
Got Him.
An fine a specimen of bear as has been
seen on the Salt Lake market in many
a day drew an admiring crowd late last
evening at the Success market on West
First South street. The bear had been
killed only a few hours earlier at Farm
ington by John Bentrod of this city,
and was still warm when Its big body
was suspended from some of the heavy
meat hooks.
The presence of Mr. Bruin In the
neighborhood of Fnrmlngton has been
known to Mr. Bentrod for some time.
On a number of occasions during the
past, few years Mr. Bentrod has been
hunting fcr chickens in that vicinity,
and while he has several times seen
thlP or some other bear, has never been
prepared to take the chance of killing
him. Ytrterdny, however, Mr. Bentrod
started out with a 30-20 Winchester, and,
after a little walk, ran upon the bear
just nl the edge of the foothills, only
about three blocks from Fnrmlngton.
The big fellow was standing on his hind
legs, evidently picking yome berries
from the bushes which grow thickly
along the edge of the hills. At the first
opportune moment Mr. Bentrod blazed
away, the aim was true, the big bear
toppled over and died Immediately. He
made no struggle whatever, and wan
evidently entirely unconsciouu of the
approach of Mr. Bentrod.
From tip to tip the bear mensures
eight feet. He Is about five years old,
and the skin Is a fine one of a light
brown shade. The weight is nearly COO
pounds, and, as the bear is a fat one.
roafts and steaks will doubtless be very
temntlmr.

Christ; therefore, be it
Resolved, first. That we recommend to
our Government the great Importance of
taking such steps as will bring about
peaceful arbitration by which all na
tional differences may be settled without
tho resort to arms.
Second. That this resolution be forward
ed to the President of the United States
and signed by the president and secretary
of this convention

TALK ON SEWERS
AND ASPHALT
Meeting of tbe Council
Committees.
East Side Residents Think
They Cannot Afford to
Pay for Sewer.
Fight on Chief of Police Is Gaining
Momentum, Among. Republi
can Councilmcn.
Settlement of the asRhalt proposition,
which has been troubling the City Coun
cil, seems to be as far away as ever,
nnd the question ' bids fair to out
rival the Brlgham ytreet bugbear In
tenacity and long life. Only three mem
bers of the special committee which
has been selected to consider the propo
sition were present last night, and after
a lot of talk and much explanation from
V. G. Nebeker of the Thistle claims, it
was decided to have the matter come up
before a committee of the whole next
Wednesday evening.
John Beck way in attendance lust
night, and a representative of S. J.
Jones, who has offered to sell tbe Coun
cil 1C0 acres of asphalt claims some
thirty-five miles beyond the narrow
gauge rullroad In Uintah county.
"Agin" the Sewers.
The Commltte on Sewers met to con
sider the protests against sewer exten
sion No. 132 In dlslrift No. 1. The op
position failed to show up in suulll
cient strength, so the report was turned
buck to the Council for action.
Councilman Barnes represented the
protesting parties. He claimed that be
tween Seventh and Tenth East streets,
the proposed extension going out that
far, there are a number of poor people
who have objected to the extension on
the ground that they could not afford
the extension. He said that the sewers
would tost them "o much that some of
them were In danger of losing their
homes, as they had been Informed that
they would be txild out to pay for the
cost of making the extension.
Councilman Black expressed himself
strongly on the subject of people who
preferred to go on In the old unhealthy
way rather than pay for the cost of a
sewer, which Is an absolute- necessity In
any city
"We ought to have an ordinance," he
said, preventing any new houses being
built unless they are connected with the
sewer Every hotiye ought to have a
sewer."
The Fight on Lynch.
Rumors of the coming tight that Is to
be made on Chief of Police Lynch Avere
going aboul the Council chamber last
night. The opposition to the Chief Is
gaining ground, and It is evident that a
determined effort will be made to oust
him. The three Republican Council
men who are heading the fight have
offered to sacrifice one or two other ap
pointments In order to gain their point.
