"Better Late than Nsver,"

Those of our readers who contemplate
investing in the First Great Salt Lake
Gift Concert, to be held at Corinne,
Utah, on the 31st inst, had better Sc
cure their tickets at once, as there is but
a small number remaining on hand and
these will be sold to those applying first.
The success it has met with is unparallel-
ed, and there is no doubt that the draw
ing will take place as advertised. The
tickets are only one dollar each, or six
for five dollars. See advertisement.

Killed on the Railroad.

Between one and two O'Clock on
Thursday afternoon last, an old man
named Henry Feller, of Polk township,
Monroe county, was killed at the L. &
S. Railroad crossing in Weissport. 1t

up the hill leading to the crossing when
coal train was approaching and he
endeavered to pass with his team in
front, when the engine struck one of
the mules cutting him completely in
two parts, and so badly mangling the
man that lie lived but few minutes
after the accident. D. j. Zern was i'm
mediately in attendance, but medical
skill was unavailable.

liable at any time to come upon us.
Therefore, 1t Is important that remedial
agents should be at hand to be used on

the excrucating agony of pain, or the
depressing influence of disease. Such
a remedial exists in Perry Davis pain

Loss of another Steamer and q
considerable Loss Of Life.

A private letter from Valparaiso con
firms the news of the loss Of the steamer
g Tooua." Capt. Hyde took all possible
means of rlghting his vessel and saving
the lives Of the passengers. Nearly all
of the latter were, however, sleeping IN
their state. rooms, aud the loss of life was
consequently considerable. The crew
were, however, evidently panic stricken,
and the captain was, to a great extent,
helpless. Orders were at length given to
the crew to get the boats in readiness, aud
a moment later they were lowered. The
tackle became disarranged, the first boat
launched was swamped Immediately, and
the ladies whom it contained we're lost.
Meantime the captain went down on the
bridge, but was finally picked up. The
other officers appear to have stood ut their
posts with equal bravery. The boats were
turned toward Los Villas and all who es-
caped with their lives we're kindly cared
for. The steamer /" Toona y was one Of
the latest additions 10 the enormous heeI
Of the Pacific steam ma navigation Co. She
was one of the smaller vessels of the fleet
about $500 tons, and IS q total loss.

THERE is foolish rumor adoat, that
the election of Sullivan as Mayors a
Radical victory. This is all bosh
The Mayor elect is Democrat, and so
are his warinest supporters. As amin
dependent candidate, no doubt, the
Radicals supported him. This they
will always do, for the chance of Gre
ating dissension in the ranks of the
dominant party. We regret the course
pursued by the Independents because
it tends to destroy organization, and
the weakness thus induced tends to
anarchy and confusion and destroys
the efforts of the best citizens to pro-
mote good order and the general vel
fare. The defeat of the regular nom
nee is due, in the first place, to those
who had not the public spirit to carry
them to the polls and, in the next place,
to the want of sympathy between the
whites which IS the secret OF lnde-
pendent movements. We regret the
defeat of the nominee, butjustice COM
pels US to express the belief that the
successful candidate will prove an en-
ergetic and efficient Mayor.
