We beg to call the attention of the
public to our advertisement in another
column, and assure them that We
mean all we say. Our prices before
the reduction were acknowledged to
be far below those of any of our COM
petitors, for the ssmequality of goods.
We have now still further reduced
those prices from twenty to twenty
five per cent. in order to close out our
winter stock, which we are deter
mined to do. Remember we do not
wait to be "beat down." but of our
own accord offer our goods at the low
est prices they can possibly be sold.
We desire particularly to impress the
fact that zee employ no drssnaners and
pay no conlmissi0nS-all the advRn-
tages we can give we give to our Gus
TONERS. HEART Bros.

Important ChaDGs In Coal OWener-
ship.
At a meeting of the Coal Creek
Mining and Manufacturing Company,
held last Friday, we learn, that Col. j.
u. Heck, OF Raleigh, n. c., was
elected President; Mr.. G.. A. Buckley,
of New York city, Treasurer, and Mr..
c. A. Branse, of Kingston, Secretary.
This makes an important change in
the management of this company, and
we learn also in the ownership of the
stock. Col. Heck is a gentleman of
very considerable wealth, and of great
energy, and from his large acquaint-
ance with men OF capital will be able
10 draw that class Of investors to our
region. We hope the result may be
the erection of furnaces, rolling mills
and steel works.

Secretary of The Yellow Fever Com
mission.
Our fellOW-tOwnsman Mr.. Thos. l..
Williams received telegram Satur-
day night from Senator Isham G..
Harris, Chairman of the Yellow Fever
Commission of Congress, advising
him of his appointment as Secretary
and iDstructing him to come on at
once. The Commission is composed
of fourteen members, seven from each
house of Congress. The Senators APP
pointed are Messrs. Harris, Matthew'S,
Lamar, Paddock, Conoyer, Garland
and Eustis. The House members are
not yet appointed.
Mr.. Williams left last night for
Washington, to accept the position.
He just returned home Saturday from
a visit to Washington, but he had no
intimation OF this appointment, and
1t came entirely unexpected. The
position will 10 doubt be a very nice
one, and remunerative. The commits
sion will travel extensively, no doubt,
through the Southern country, and
will perhaps te in session all winter.
We congratulate our friend and fell
low-townsman, and hope he may
have pleasant time.

DefauItSr Dtekman.

About a week ago w. q. Dickmsn, who
has wife and family IN South Wheeling,
left the city and has not been heard oil
since. He was travelling salesman Tor
Michael Reilly, wholesale grocer, and
had been taken into Mr.. Reilly's en-
ploy Tor the purpose OF csnvassing the
CITY. A ter working at this for some
time, he persuaded Mr.. Reilly to send
him into the country to sell groceries BY
samples. This was done, and 1t was soon
found out by another salesman OF the
same firm, that Dickmsn had been SWIM
ding his employer for sometime. Mr..
Reilly sent for Dickmsn, who refused to
answer the summons, on the plea that his
wife was sick, and he had TO nurse her.
Due time was given for the appearance
OF the fellow at Mr.. Reilly's office, and
not having appeared, letter was sent TO
him, but failed to reach him, as he had
become frightened and left the city. lie
had, at different times, been en-
ployed by Sipeidel Il Co, Simon Bser "
Son, the Nail City Brewing Company,
and other business houses. He had letters
recommending him when he went 10
seek employment with Mr.. Reilly. No
one seemed 10 know that he was scoun.
drel until after this affair was made pub
lie. He gave plausible reasons why he
had been dismissed from the employment
of those who had heretotare employed
him. The amount of money which he
appropriated will not exceed $40.
Since his departure his wife has not
heard from him, nor does she know OF
his whereabouts. Dickman had been
with Mr.. Reilly but short time, hardly
five months. He was given to drinking.
Since writing the above, it is reported
that Dickman Is now in st. Louis.

Message of Governor Emory, Of
Etan.

SALT LAKE, January 1.-THE mes.
sage of Governor Emory to the TerritOr-
ial Legislature, delivered this afternoon;
recommends the territorial school law,
as a support OF the free schools, now left
with each school and recommends the
secret ballot; revision of the divorce
law to require ten years residence OF
applicant; says that but one prisoner has
been punished for the Mountain Meadow
massacre; other parties have been in
dIcted, but have evaded the officers; that
arrest, trial and conviction is inpossl-
bic unless suitable reward is offered;
it is believed that friends IN
communication with them warn
them of the approach Of the officers, and
such vigilance is maintained thai al
though frequent attempts were made TO
arrest them they have been unsuccessful.
He suggests that n committee be ap-
pointed TO investigate the causes ope-
rating against the indicted parties. Po-
lygamy has continued here for thirty
years, and TOR fifteen years IN violation
OF law. In all other States and Terri
tories polygamy is punished. 1t Is no
less crime here, yet the law romans n
dead letter. POlygsmous marriages are
so frequent throughout tho Territory,
and the sentiment o. the majority OF the
people so much in its favor, that the
otticers, though charged with the duty of
entorcinG the laws, find themselves una
blet do so.
