RuLL1oNvILLE AND pANAUA DOTS

Mrs. Q. Sparks has left here on visit
to Phoebe.
On the evening of the ODD we had
very fashionable and pleasant party in
the village.
Capt. Garden is in charge of the late
A. Mcmahon estate in Bnllionville. A
better man could not have been selected.
The Culverwell Brothers have put up
$50 tons of ice this season for the purpose
OF supplying the people of the whole
vicinity.
The Pippin family have departed from
Panaca and gone up to Rose Valley, and
will attend to the house affairs for Mr..
Glissan.
The snow has all disappeared and the
ground is now slightly muddy, but the
moisture will soon seep through our
sandy soil.
While the snow lasted the young peo-
pie of the village made the most of it.
Everything in the shape of sled went it
over the snow.
We learn from party over from Bull
lionvillc that Fred Godbe will open the
company's store at that place, then us
girls will receive nice candies and cigar
cites.
George Edwards left for Spring Valley
ON Tuesday, whittier he has gone for the
purpose of entering into wedlock with
Miss Rice, an excellent young lady, and
a sister to Bishop Hen Rice.
Mr.. Williams, the gentleman who has
the contract of carrying the mail between
Bullionville and Saint Thomas, on the
line running down to Mineral Park,
Arizona, we understand is about to sell
out.
Harve Lapgford will leave our village
for st. George, Utah, either to-day or on
Monday, and will pass through the En-
dowment House with young lady from
Tocquerville, where the two will be made
one. Harve deserves credit for his per.
severence.
Zachow & Co. keep busy in Bullion.
vile making concentrations and are do
ing we'll. The Go" part of the firm is
nice fellow. He used to come over and
visit me frequently last summer, when
his family were in Phoebe. Why don't
he do it now?
The young people of our little settle
ment have organized debating society.
Quarty Sparks, Jr., is the president of
the same. After the society is thorough
ly organized, the members we'll creased,
and all the machinery running smoothly,
the members will start in discussing all
matters in general.
Bishop Thomas Taylor has been rusti.
eating in our village for several days.
Owing to the late storm about twenty
| five teams from Utah have been camped
here. However, about the middle of the
week, the teams were got in order and
preparations were made to start in haul.
ing rails and ties to Iron City, Utah.
| The stock throughout the valley is
looking well and is in good condition.
1t was necessary to feed a number of the
old cattle with hay while the ground was
covered with snow. The cattle men all
feel happy. They say that had the large
quantity OF snow fallen month earlier
many head of stock would certainly have
persisted, because the snow would have
lain on the ground for so long a time that
the cattle would have starved.
So far, I am aware of but one young
lady proposing marriage, and I am
that girl. Things are getting down to a
fine point with me. All the young girls
of Panaca are marrying off, and there are
but three of us at present here, and not
wishing to be left blooming alone, Just
up and told Charlie that this mating
transaction of ours had to come to TO-
Gus, and that was tired Of holding him
on my lap night after night. That he
either had to marry me, or else give some
other fellow the soft seat he has been in
the habit Of sitting in so long of nights.
I think I will gather my boy in.
On the evening of the 18th of Febru-
airy, Philip Matthews and Miss Mary
Findlay, the daughter Of A. M. Findlay,
Esq, were united in the holy bonds Of
wedlock. The wedding took place at
the residence of the brides parents.
Miss Mary was the most accomplished
young lady in the village, quiet, good,
bright and sweet girl, and we all liked
her. May the young couple always be
happy and do well, and Philip never en-.
ter into polygamy, for if he does, all those
bright golden curls that now cover his
head will surely disappear and there will
be nothing left on his shoulders but a
white ball. Next to Charles, Phil. is the
| handsomest man in town.
