times an attendant. J The patient
complains ofweariness and debility;

prickly sensation Of the skin; his
spirits are low; and although he is
satisfied that exercise would be bene-

A few days ago the Phoebe Record
had an account OF shooting affray at
Niuersvilie, Utah. The names were
tlon Wlnuc!u. -liCc tutii tuC 1heC-
ord has had several versions of the
difficulty, the following being the
last:
Later intelligence from Minersville.
Utah Territory. furnishes the addi-
tional information that Ed. kiesele
was the victim of the shooting at that
place Oh Friday last. From what we
know of kiescle, he is the last man,
We think, who would be killed that
way, for though he is somewhat de 4
monstrative. all consider him per-
fsctiy harmless. The cause of the
trou bic between Bell and kieSelc is
long standing and a woman is some
way mixed up with it-they were ri
walls. Kiesele Is " ell known in many
parts of this State, more particularly
as one who aspire;. to the secretary

public meeting held in the section
where he CHANGED To reside, and also
made a number of unsuccessful at
tenn pts To become Sergeant 81 Arms of
the Assembly of this State. and failing
in that was always ready to take any
subordinate position that oflered-.iu.t
so it could be called an office.
And still later the Record says:
