LOGAN, November 16. 1884.
Editors Herald:
think Cache County takes the lead
in accidents, four having taken place
last Friday.
The first was a young man named
Moroni Benson. He was standing on a
slab fence made after the style OF a
nickel fence, when he lost his balance
and fell backwards; his loot caught pc
tween the boards and held hlm as ne
came: he evidently turned over, as IL
ground the bones to pieces for about
99onT inches lust above the ankle. DR..
0rnshv attended the unfortunate, and
at last accounts he was doing nicely.
The other was more fatal than the
first: it took place near the Temple
mills in Logan Canyon. a young man,
named Joseph Greaves, was cutting
timber: he was chOpping down a tree
at the time. and it fell the way he eX-
pected it would, but in falling 1t struck
a sapIiHg and swung around, striking
him, knocking him down and breaking
his leo. This was not the end OF 1t, as
If struck something else and swung
around striking him again, this time
crushing his leg frightfully. 1t occurred
about 10 o'clock IN the morning. lie
was brought to Logan, reaching here
about s o'clock in the evening. Dr.
Ormsby attended him, but 1t was
swollen so badly that it was I'M
possible to tell how bad 1t was
broken though he thinks II
was shattered in three places, twice
above the knee and once below the knee.
He died from the effects OF the accident
shortly after noon to-day. He leaves
wife and family. His home is L. Pres
ton Ward, Idaho.
The third took place at Smlthheld,
about 8 O'Clock in the evening, and may
result fatally. A young man named
Robert ones was feeding his stock at
the time. In sliding off hay stack, he
struck a fork that had been left there
by the threshers, which wounded him
in a frightful manner. DR.. OrmSby was
teIegraphed for and went up and at
tended him. He is dong as well as can
be expected.
The last was a broken arm. At Frank
lin, two boys were lettering" when
one of them jumped off and the other
fell. with the result stated. He was
brought to Logan and DR.. Ormsby at
tended him. He is doing nicely Or.
OrmsbY deserves great praise for his
prompt attention to calls at all hours.
The railroad land question is settled,
and everybody is satisfied with the gen
tlemanlv manner in which they were
treated by the land judge, Mr.. Mills.

An Explanation.

SALT LAKE CITY, November IS, 1884.
Editors Herald:
In order that you may be properly in
formed in relation to a matter that has
occupied some space in your columns
for some days past, the same being the
case of the People VS.. Frank Powell, and
as the defendant has been more or less
misrepresented in that connection, L
desire to state, in the interest of justice,
all The circumstances in the case.
1t seems that some two years previous
to the commencement OF the action re-
ferred TO, a claim involving Y37 had been
made by Mr.. Mitchell, the complaining
witness, against the firm OF TUFTS q NY
strom, which they did not concede. Re
Gently. Mitchell came 10 this city and re
newed his claim upon said firm. Rather
than have any difficulty with Mitchell,
who threatened it, Mr.. Tufts passed
the money over, saying at the time, 4" |
don't owe YOU one cent OF this, but L
Will make YOU a present of it." Mitchell
received the money. and, being some
what under the influence of liquor,
wanted some one to take care of 1t until
the next morning. The man suggested
was not considered a proper person and
friend of Mitchell's suggested Powell
the defendant in the employ of Tufts &
Nystrom. He received the money and
passed it over to Tufts, to be locked up,
as he understood from the conversation
going on. until a final determination OF
the dispute between the parties as to
the title to the money. Mr..
Powell acted simply as an agent
as between the parties and did
not figure, one way or another
rs a principal. 1t was mistake to have
him arrested and prosecuted for an
offense for which he could not, under
any Interpretation of law or justice. be
either civilly or criminally liable. His
numerous friends ask, in justice to
him, knowing your desire to be just to
all, that this be inserted.
The hearing occupied all of last Fri
day and part of Monday and resulted
in Mr. Powell's discharge.

ANOTHER Sic for a Hotel.

PIEDMONT, w. Va, May 1S-A cavern has
been discovered on the farm of Mr.. David Smith,
this county, which promises to rival in. extent
aud beauty the famous Luray cavern in old Viz
ginia. The discovery made by Mr., Smith.
several days ago, who in crossing field felt the
ground cave in beneath his feet and only saved
himself from falling into unknown depths by
superhuman exertions. Mr.. Smith, with few
neighbors, made an exploration the next day
and found they had stumbled upon an immense
cave The cavern has been explored for mile
in one direction and three quarters of mile in
another without reaching its limits. There is
much magnificent underground scenery, one
chamber being ninety feet high the vaulted
roof being supported by finely proportional col.
umns. Further and more extensive explorations
will soon be made.

A Juror who Was Not Iron-CIad.

New York, May 17,--Mrs Langtry was de-
PENDANT in a civil suit yesterday, and a morning
paper in its report this morning intimated that
the jury was well pleased with her. She got a
verdict in her behalf To-day she was defendant
in another suit, Arthur Edward. an actor, having
sued her for s67 salary Mrs. Langtry was
present again and appeared very charming, but
the jury frowned on her and kept watchful eye
on the reporters to see that the frown was taken
down. At one point something laughable was
said Everybody laughed except the
Jury, who frowned and glanced at
the reporters again. At the close of her testi
mony Mrs. Langtry looked beseeehingly at
the jury and was shocked at the stony stare she
encountered The jury consulted for twenty
minutes and returned looking cross. The fore
man arose and said: MRS. Langtry, according
to a morning paper, enchanted jury yesterday
In view of this fact wish to state that this jury
is married and is iron-clad. We find q verdict
in favor of Mrs Langtry because we think she
has Justice on her side We don't believe in fas
cination or any nonsense of that kind" One of
the Jurors, stout man with big mustache, laid
his hand on his heart and shook his head. He
said afterward that he was not iron-ciad and
wanted the public to understand as much.
