SOME ten weeks under the care of doc
tor who was treating him for a lung
trouble. AT the time of his demise, he
was sitting by the stove in the beer hall,
talking to friend and while in the mid.
die of sentence he gagged and threw up
a mouthful of blood, which then con-
tinued to well up so fast that the unfor.
tunate man could not speak. He was
laid on the floor and gunny sack placed
under his head, in which position he ex.
pired shortly after. He came from Wood
River here for treatment, and only yes
teray expressed himself as feeling bet.
ter In Idaho he owned a ranch and

of that property could not not be ascer.
tanned. In Butte, Montana, he has a
son about 81 years of age, and married
daughter. The son was telegraphed to

THE Mountain Chief Mining Company,
near Jackson, Washington county, Utah,
has experienced much trouble in obtain
ing coal, the brethren there not being
versei in the art of coal burning, and the
furnace has been forced to shut down for
the want of coal. Joe Outlet and Barney
Bonanza have secured contract to furn.
ish the company 5000 bushels Of coal per
month. They left for Bristol on Wednes-
day, where they will get two large coal
teams, pack train, and about twenty.
FIVE Italian coalburners, and at once pro-
coed over to Jackson and start in burning.
Mr. Livingstone, at one time Supt. of
the Bullionville S. NJ. Company, is in
charge of the works. The mine is an
immense deposit of soft ore, that simply
requires the shovel for extraction. The
grade is not high, yet it pays the com.
pany fair profit for working.
COMET. There has recently been made
quite an important strike in Comet Dis.
trict, and will in all likelihood prove
valuable. About so feet east of the old
Comet shaft, on the ledge, in line of the
Redemption mine, James Burrows found
a ledge. He sunk on it eight feet The
ledge is four feet wide and has a very
slight dip. The ledge contains two feet
of good ore. One foot Of the ore is com.
posed of quartz chloride and slight
sprinkling of galena, and assays 5000 and
upwards. There is seam of what ap-
pears to be red clay in the ledge, which
is thought to carry silver also. Judge
Clapp, VIII, was out at Comet last Tues.
day, brought in some nice looking ore
from the place. He says the ledge does
really look big, and he entertains hopes
that it will eventually prove bigger than
it looks.

As the cold nights continues, and tn
poor, unfortunate wretch of bachelo
shivering crauls into his little bed, the
he discerns the manifold beauties an
blessing possessed in polygamay, as h
thinks, to himself, how nice and comfort
able it would be 10 be sandwiched b'
tween couple of lovely wenches. TIL
old buck Mormons are not such fools tha

what solid comfort is.
