Mrs. Permitted Harrie, Who Former Her Vieit to Children Huaband, Want Them Back. Alice was trouble in the Harris family yesterday and it grew out of a the parties divorce case between some years ago. which was adjudicated In 1898 Alice Harris brought suit against her husband, Leander Harris, In the district court in Weber county and obtained a decree of divorce. In the decree she was awarded the custody of their three children until they should arrive at the age of ten years, at which time they were to be given the right to elect with which of their parents they preferred to reside. Recently Mra Harris returned from California, where she had been residing for some time, and met her former husband, who asked permission for the children to visit him. This ahe granted and the two boys and little girl went to Harriaville to visit him. He sent the little girl back to her mother and retained the two boys and it Is said refuses to give them up. Testerday afternoon Mra Harris, accompanied by her brother, Lorenzo Jensen of Brigham City, went to Sheriff Baileys office and say Deputy Behring and reported the facts to him and requested hla aid In the matter. Deputy Sebrlng Informed her that In the absence of any writ of the court he was powerless to act.

Entire Reference to Mrs. Coulter Is Elks Sustained Their Reputation Being tho Best of Enter Misstatement Secretary Holds tainers. Matter. of the the Proofs The following communication in defense of Mrs. M. G. Coulter and writ- ten by Mrs. C. E. Blchsel of thia city, recording secretary of the Utah Federation of Women's dubs, has been received by the Journal for publication and will be read with Interest. It is a reply to the attack made upon Mra Coulter In yesterdays issue of the Salt' Lake Herald: Had the author of the article appearing in the Salt Lake Herald of April 27th. under heading Mrs. Coulter Debarred, studiously attempted the avoidance of all semblance of truth, she could not have more effectively succeeded in omitting the facts. The entire reference to Mrs. Coulter Is misstatement. In the first place, Mrs. Coulter was regularly assigned to two places on the program of the General Federation of Womens clubs at the St. Louis meeting by officers competent to designate the speakers at this convention. In proof whereof the undersigned holds In her possession letters from Mrs. Anna D. West, chairman of the program committee of the seventh biennial of the G. F. W. CL and from Mrs. Neville, chairman of the on household economics. committee Mrs. West: It would give me much pleasure to have Mrs. Coulter given an opportunity to appear at the SL Louis biennial. and accordingly referended. red the matter to Mrs. Neville.

ROSE COGHLAHS SUCCESS, "The Greatest Thing in the World" Presented at the Grand Last Night. With that eminent tragedian, Fred- erick Warde, deploring the decadence of the drama In America, "The Greatest Thing in the World," aa presented by Rose Coghlan and her excellent company at the Grand last night came as something exceedingly Interesting. Thla play Is the work of Harriet Ford and Beatrice De Mllle, and let It be said at once that It is one of the few really good productions of the season. A mother's love, the greatest love of all, la the central thought around which the play la constructed. Miss Coghlan, the widowed mother, Is seen In a comparatively new role. At times she rises to great heights In the portrayal of the heartaches she endures on account of the debauchery and of her son, a part criminality excellently played by Sidney Ir love vlng, but her strong, sincere works his reformation and In the work of reclamation Miss Coghlan achieves a distinct triumph. Every member of the company gives capable support. Such a well balanced organisation Is seldom seen and thus the presentation of the comedy la much enhanced.

The hall had been prettily decorated for the occasioin and this added to the gaiety of the scene. Then a specially augmented orchestra had been engaged and the music furnished was all that could be desired. In a corner of the hall punch and lemonade were served, under the supervision of William Smith, the steward of thee lub, and that gentleman was kept busy most of the evening. Dancing was continued until an early hour this morning. The dance was given in lieu of the usual monthly social session. The various committees were as fol4 lows: Arrangements C. C. Richards Jr., J.

Nelden, a member of the general board of directors, was the woman to voice the indignation of the others when they heard of Mrs. Coulter's announcement Is especially unbecoming and to be regretted. One holding this distinguished position should be broad enough to represent the entire State Federation. Contrary to It being an outrage that Mrs. Coulter should be selected to represent Utah at the coming biennial,' It Is eminently fitting. It Is a matter of history that Mrs. Coulter, during her two terms as president of the U. F. of W. C., sought to harmonize all factions of the Federated clubs regardless of religion, creed or social standing, and It Is only fair to state that her administrations were distinguished by fairness, harmony, progress and general satisfaction. It Is safe to presume that her appearance at St Louis would be characterised by the same generous spirit "CAROLYN E BICHSEL, "Recording Secretary U. F. W.
