removing nouSenold goods from JULIUS
house to his new home north of st. George.
In company with one of his little girls, he
was riding on the top of heavy load, when
his horses, for some cause or other, became
unmanageable and started to run away. In
going down steep hill August lost his bal
ance and fell to the ground between the
horses and the wagon, and the wheels ran
over him and broke his neck.

brothers, Joseph and Tobias Sherrad, were
badly injured on Apple river last Saturday

breaking Tobias shoulder and otherwise in

Litchfeld (Meeker county, Independ-
emit, May %: Friday afternoon, as some en-
igrants were passing through town, child
four or five years of age fell out over the
dashboard of one of the wagons while in
motion, and in attempting to crawl out from
under the vehicle had both legs run over by
the heavily loaded wagon. The poor child
tried two or three times to stand up, but
each time fell helplessly. The father noticed
the mishap about this time, went back,
picked the little boy up and carelessly put
him in the wagon and drove on. Spectators
OF the accident say that to all appearances
the legs of the youngster were broken.
Glencoe Register: Since the receipt of
y III J.
pectors who left Glencoe few weeks ago,
something has s'come over the spirit of their
dreams," and they look at Denver through
less admiring eyes. MIR. Uriah Foster, who
wrote his wife soon after his arrival, giving
q glowing account of the country, and telling
her to be prepared to start for the West upon
word from hirn, has "rescinded the order"
and now says Colorado is the last place he
would take his family to. He says the sand
storms are 80 furious and lasting that there
is no such thing as living with any degree of
comfort in or about Denver, and thinks the
company that left Glencoe will all return
soon, or seek some other locality. %
st. Peter Weekly Times, May 22: On
Tuesday, the 4th inst, James Baker and his
wife, living in Cleveland, parted. They
were making their home at Willard Thayer's
house, three miles east of Cleveland village.
The reason given for this step is said to be
disagreement. Mrs. Baker is at present
stopping at Jessie Hankin's house, and her
husband finds home at A. j. Burke's.
Being in close proximity, the husband and
wife can watch each other to see that their
conduct ID in keeping with holy writ. In 6
social point of view, James and Harriet
stand well in the community, and it is q
pity that two elderly people, such as they
| are, should see trouble after they have passed
the meridian of life. Better would it be
| for them to administer to each others COM
| fort here, and at the same time prepare for
the great hereafter. Mr.. Baker says he will
| never live with Harriet again, (that being her
baptismal name0 and he declares it will be
useless for her to coax or palaver around.
This may prove to be fact, but generally,
| when husband and wife fall out, one loving
smile or soothing word from the wife brings
the husband to terms. The caseso James
| and Harriet, in this respect, will be closely
| watched. 1t seems that Mrs. Baker has been
married three times, her first and third hus-
band being alive. 1t may be that husband
No. three has become frightened at the
future in front of him. James and Harriet
better become reconciled. '.f
