A SAD FATE.
a Young Lady Frozen TO Death on
Longs Peak, Colorado.

DENVER, Colo, September 26.-Miss
c. l. Welton, a wealthy young lady of
New York City, persisted in a snow
storm last Tuesday night, while de-
scending Longs Peak. Miss Welton
had been spending the season at Colo
RADIO Springs and visiting Pixies Peak
and other points of interest. A few
weeks ago she went to Estes Park, stop
ping at the hotel On Monday evening
she walked over to the house of the
guide, named Lamb, living,at the foot'of
the peak, and engaged his son, Mr.. Lamb,
II years of age, to act as guide in as
cendlng the peak next morning. At
O'Clock on Tuesday morning they left
the house and safely assembled the
peak, but encountered q fierce snow
storm on the return, during which the
Lady became completely chilled. Young
Lamb assisted her in the descent the
best he could, until about o'clock at
night, when her strength entirely
failed, and he carried her for half a
mile, when, finding his own strength
failing, he told her the only chance for
saving either of their lives was for him
to leave her and go to his fathers
house, seven miles distant, for assist
ance. He left her at 10 O'Clock and re-
turned with assistance at 4 O'Clock on
Wednesday morning, finding the lady
frozen to death. The remains were
taken to Longmont, and will be sent to
New York. Miss Welton was highly
refined. great lover of nature and
very sef-reliant. A heavy snow storm
prevails In the mountains tonight.

False Fire Alarm,

Last evening, about quarter TO 8, the
bells Of the Courthouse and the new
city building mingled with the shrill
whistle of the engine at the depot in
arousing the people from the quiet en-
joyment of their supper and evening
meditations. Muiutudes hurried out
on the streets TO learn where the her
aided con1agration was taking place,
but it was soon ascertained that it was
only false alarm, caused by some
brush bonfire in the northeast corner OF
the townsite. The fire brigade went to
the rescue promptly and bravely, but
finding out the true status of things did
not go quite to the scene of the scare.
There used to be an ordinance against
bonfires at night, although the present
Code OF Ordinances is silent on the
question. But. at any rate, something
should be done TO prevent these false
alarms which throw the community
into temporary terror, block the wheels
of business, and result only in good
deal OF wasteful labor by the firemen
and useless expenditure of money by
the city. We think an ordinance should
be framed inflicting q heavy penalty on
the originators of bon6re5 az night, I'M
less due permit for such has been OBJ
tanned from the city authorities. There
is no use OF playing with FIRE; it's serious
and dangerous businesS.-Ogden Herald

Grand Qualification.

LEAvENwoRrH, KAs., September 26.-
There was a grand jollifcation here to-
night over the selection OF this city as
the location for the western branch of
the Soldiers Home. Within half an
hour after the news was received here
this afternoon, all the bells in the city
were ringing, the whistles were blowing,
the flags were hoisted throughout the
business part of the city, and a
large street procession, with bands and
banners, was formed. Tonight there
is an illumination, and all the campaign
clubs, irrespective of party, with the
militia, civil societies and United States
troops from the fort are parading the
streets. A large public meeting was also
held, and the whole city is rejoicing.
The location chosen for the Home is a
very beautiful one on the river bank,
with commanding view and superior
advantages as to water, fuel, drainage,
etc. The land will be turned over to
the Government at once, so there will
be no delay in constructing the build
ing.
The homes will be built on full Sec
ton of land, three miles below Leaven-
worth, having a front of one mile on
the Missouri river. The building will
be designed to accommodate 900. The
board of managers adjourned to meet
again in Washington in December next.

Cricket Club to play. a friendly match
game of cricket, with eleven gentlemen
selected f.om the whole Territory OF

gentlemen to play q friendly match
with the same number of the Salt Lake
Club, on Tuesday. October 7th, 1884, at

Habitual constipation is not only one


Habitual constipation is not only one
of the mostunpleasant, but at the same
time one of the most injurious condi-
tons of the human system. and is but a
forerunner of disease, unless removed.
This is usually accomplished by the use
of purgatives, which for the time afford
relief but after their immediate effects
have passed they leave the system in q
worse state than before. To effect a
cure it IS necessary that the remedy
used should be one that not only by its
cathartic effect relieves the bowels, but
at the same time acts as a tonic, SO as
to restore the organs to a sound, healthy
condition. This 'Prickly Ash Bitters'
will do; 1t removes the cause and re-
stores health.
