At noon today Judge Carpenter sentenced Frank J. Keefe to four years In the pen for manslaughter. Keefe killed Policemen Baxter and King at Rawlins last spring, his case being brought to this county on a change of venue, as it was feared he could not get a fair trial In Carbon county. Judge Corpenter delivered a ten minute talk in rendering his decision and Keefe responded. He eald he thought he should have been acquitted. He admitted killing Baxter and King, but said he waa on his own property and the killing was done In the heat of passion.

J. S. LEWIS & COMPANY and Opticians The creation of sewer district No. has provoked considerable discussion and adversity of opinion. The district as proposed was to extend from Twenty-thir- d and Twentieth streets and between Washington and Quincy avenues from Twenty-firto Twenty-secon- d streets and Washington and Wall avenues. The coat of the establishment of this sewer district was estimated at $55,000, payable by the property owners within two years. The area of the district was considered by many to be too extensive, and it was proposed to eliminate all the territory beyond Madison avenue east, and also Twentieth street This, It waa asserted, would reduce the cost to $80,000. The reason assigned for the proposed elimination waa that some of the property in those districts would not warrant such an expenditure ($1.20 per foot) for such a purpose, and while some favored the proposition others objected. On a basis of payment in ten years It la believed that all or nearly all owners would agree to the sewer extension. The question, however, seemed to resolve Itself Into the Issue: ten years' payment or no sewer. The vote on the proposal resulted, 22 for the two years' payment and 81 for the ten years' payment If the district was to be reduced the sewer might be proceeded with and the owners east of the proposed area might at a future time have the extension and their connections made. While the city Is bonded up to its full limit for all general purposes, still City Attorney Bagley stated that legally the city was permitted to bond for another four per cent of the assessed valuation for the specific purposes of acquiring utilities such as artificial light, waterworks, or the construction of sewers. Such a bond fosue could be made, but, of course, it would have to be subfitted to a vote of the people. As the matter now stands, it lies primarily between the property owners in the proposed district and the administration for their determination. 9 st ANDREW CARNEGIES SIXTY-SIXT- BIRTHDAY H NEW YORK, Nov. 25.

Indeed, it should never be touched with a knlfct they aay. Now, the common people have heard this, and it is their habit to roll up a big leaf with a fork, sop it in the dressing and pack it in their mouths as one used to wad a gun with a bit of newspaper. Once in a while you will see a dainty eater pick up leaves in the fingers, horrified at the thought of touching the lettuce even with a silver fork. It has not occurred to most lettuce esters thst the epicures who established these unwritten lews ate only the heart of the vegetable, which does not require cutting, packing or wadding, hut may be taken on the tip of the fork and conveyed decently to the buccal cavity. Therefore, when in society eat only the heart If you want the beat part of the lettuce (the outer leaves) sneak into the kitchen, shake a little pepper and salt in your hand and go ahead.
