BEWARE OF THE WIDOW.

The widow is Il dangerous thing, s
With soft, black. shining curlS;
And lookcth more bcwitchiuw
Than host of romping girls;
Her laugh is SO delicious :
So knowing. clear, beside

Soon to become Il bride.

Gives roununess to her form-- .
A touch Of something thoughtful.

And when she sits down by you.
With quiet, easy grace,
\ tear may fall lmbidlen,
Or 4 smile light up her face.
Her voice is soft. mclodious,
And tlute-lillc in tone,
She sometimes sighs ""Yis dreadful
TO pass through life alonei'
Then she'll tell yon. you remind her
OF the loved one dead and g, ne.
Your step, your form, your features
Thus the widow will run on.
Oh /. listen. vet be careful,
For well she PLAYS her part
Her lips diStil the nectar
That doth euSlavc the heart;
Be guarded. or she'll win v0ll

She may box your silly ears?

PRINTERS AND POISON.-A prin-
ter named Robert ii. Jones died
in this city on Friday last from
the effects Of leading poisoning.
He was a sober man, and while at
work he inhaled the dust from the
type which he was compelled to
handle. This dust is known to be
quite poisonous. The death of
this poor man brings out the fact
that alcohol is very generally re-
garded as antidote for lead-poison-
ing. This is at least tradition in
all well regulated newpaper offices,
and it is for this reason that prin-
ters are never asked to join tenn
pcrancc societies. If they dc
sign a pledge, it is with a mental
reservation touching lead-poison-
ing. New York World.

SANPETE VALLEY.
A Few Notes About a Prosperous
Section.

MANTI, May S1st, 1883.
Editors Herald:
A trip through Sanpete County at
the present season is to every lover
of nature quite a treat, the rugged
mountains as they rear their lofty
peaks above the valley below, so
verdant with the seasons growth
forming striking contrast The
farmers are all joyful in consequence
of the late rains and subsequent
warm weather, predicting a healthy
crop this year. Every one is busy
and as a natural inference happy.
Great attention is being paid to the
raising of live stock and much i'm.
provement in this important in
dustry is manifest. Building and
improvements generally in the de-
velOpment of the towns are con
stantly progressing and the indica-
tions are that Sanpete will yet
prove itself among our most Valu-
able counties. At this place the
temple, completion of which is
anxiously awaited by those inter-
ested III such matters, will be fin
ished to the square, as far as the out
side construction concerned, about
the middle OF June. Since work was
resumed for this season, March 9th,
height of ten feet from last years
discOntinuance, has been reached.

assistants are untiring in their eff
forts to complete the work as soon
as practicable, and do it in a man.
ner which will give credit to so
valuable an edifice, and they are
greatly aided by the voluntary con-
tributions of the citizens of this and
other counties. AS there may be
some of your many readers who
have no knowledge Of the work al
ready accomplished and that which
is yet in the future, it may not be
amiss to describe the building and
its surroundings as they will ap-
pear when completed. The ascent
to the main entrance of the build
ing, which is on an eminence of SO
| feet from the street, will be made
By means of 1875 stone steps, Is feet
wide, provided with four landings,
including the top one, three OF
which Will be about eight feet wide
The grounds are terraced, there being
three terraces besides the main
landing, which are supported by
four rock walls, each 4 feet thick
and II feet high; the terraces differ
ing in width from so to So feet
These grounds are to be ornamented
with trees, shrubs and flowers
which will greatly enhance the
beauty of the situation, which even
now in its rude state-affording the
view it does of the surrounding
country-is really grand. The out
side measurements of the temple
are 70 feet high to the square-95
feet wide and 1721S feet long. The

long and had caused my husband so
much trouble and expense, no one
seemed to know what allied me,
that 1 was completely disheartened

gained so fast that nay husband and
family thought it strange and un-

had helped me, they said. "Hurrah

Who ever heard of singing mouse
Such curiosity is now in the possession
of George W. Blakesley, residing at the
foot of Winnebago street, "a veritable
unsteady inclined rodent that sings and
MARBLES like the most accomplished canary
Hearing that Mr.. Blakesely had such Pc
culiarity, a representative of the Gazette
visited his residence yesterday afternoon,
and was introduced to the wonderful little
animal. 1t is not a rat, but a genuine
mouse, and small one at that. The little
curiosity was confined in cake box that
had been converted into very comforta-
BILE cage, and to the establishment of the
scribe, was warbling softly in notes that
were the essence of musical strains.
Mr.. Blakesley stated that he had at
first become aware of the animals's Pc
culiarity by being awakened in the night
and hearing the rodent giving vent to
these unaccountable sounds One night
the mouse took position upon the
bureau and warbled with the greatest free
dom until frightened away by the stirring
of the inmates of the house. Mr.. Blakes-
ley baited trap, and finally succeeded in
capturing the wonderful bird mouse. A
mouse with similar musical characteristics
was not long since discovered and placed
in an eastern museum; but this is the first
instance of one being heard of in this
section of the country. There is said to
be companion to the one captured, and
Mr.. Blakesley is planning TO secure the
mate. The sounds emanating from the
throat of the mouse resembles the notes
produced by canary, more than any
thing to which they can be compared, and
the little animals ueculiarIties are really
| wonderful
