What crash is thati What awful sound
Like fire Of cannon heavy loadedY
with bated breath the words go round,
"Browncll's mill boiler has exploded"
And US the smoke towards heaven curled
Beneath the wreck three mangcd bodies lie,
Into eternity three souls were hurled
Almost within the twlngllng Of an eye.

Brownell stood; f--door.
The engine room was 60x20 feet,

feet, only the part next to the engine
room being three stories high.
HOW 1T HAPPENED.
Only eight persons were in the
mill at the time of the explosion.
Four already named were in the en-
CINE room, f. J. Brownell, owner of
the mill, was standing just through
the door f. counting sacks; Sam

MR.. BRowNELL's STATEMENT.
Mr.. Brownell says the first intima-
ton he had of the explosion was
from terrible rush of smoke and
wind through the door which sent
his hat sailing across the mill and
threw him dazed and stupe6edagainst
some barrels. He caught something
and steadied himself and ran at once
to look out for fire. A piece of hot
Iiron had just started blaze in one
of the upper stories which wa'
promptly extinguished and all dan
ger from fire averted.

The cause of the explosion is a
mystery. An inquest held over Bri-
ning's body failed to develop the
cause. The engineer is of the opin-
ion that the pipe connecting the boil
ers was stopped by sediment, in using
muddy water. lA -

4 Chapter on DivOrces.

We would like to ask the Saints if there has ever been a time, since the days of Joseph Smith, when a prominent polygamist could not obtain a divorce, from any of his wives, simply by making a repre- sentation to the head of the church that matters were not happy at home, and he wanted a divorce? Is it not true that Joseph Smith grant ed many such divorces? Is it not also true, that on the fimsiest pre- texts, Brigham Young was in the habit of granting such separations? Whence, then, comes the peculiar sacredness of that everlasting GOV enant" which we hear so much about nowadays? Perhaps it may be said that in all such cases the divorced men intended to, marry again. That is 10 doubt true, but

In the valleys are many desirable tracts ofagricuitural land, sus- ceptible of irrigation. A sufficiency of water has been found wherever cattle and sheep have been grazed, and large herds have been grazed Tn the country ever since the coming of the Mexicans. Wells have been sunk and good water has been obtained.
 A stream of running water, the San Jose, rlSeS near the summit of the Sierre Madre, and runs $ miles eastward to the Rio Puerco, and the compa- ny's road follows the whole length of its valley There are numerous fine valleys opening into the valley of .he San Jose, fanked by grassy and woo ded hills, upon which there IS open growth of small cedar and pinon. There is ane<. nsive belt railroad, and good springs found on both slopes of the Sierre Madre. There Is large coal field west of Fort Wingate which has been fully cx- plored and which will afford labor for large pop i1lation there are also coal deposits the eastern slope of the Sierra Madre.

ELDER HART, who for more than twenty years has looked after the business of the Saints in New York, declares that the Mormons are non- combatants, and that their work Is to preach the gospel and build tenn ples, The men who have been run out of Utah by the Danites, as well as those who escaped from the bloody field of Mountain Meadows, will scarcely subscribe to this state ment. What has made the Nor mons so strong Is their aggressive character. Without force, and plenty of it, Brigham Young could never have kept his people under control. The influence of his policy of force is seen to-day in the few -polygamists who are willing to ab- jure their faith to secure freedom from punishment. If they did not fear the vengeance of the Church, how many of them would go to jail for the sake of a principle.- San Francisco Chronicle.

 The Aver Lumber Company's mill suspended operations on Sat urday last, and will not commence work again 'til spring. The demand for lumber is at present limited to small orders, and the large amount on hand is sufficient to carry the company through.
 The Champion, under the busi- ness management and editorial la bors of J. W. Spafford will have q prosperous season, and yield a large influence Tn promoting the success of the town enterprises. MT. Spaf- ford is the soul of energy in all that he engages in, and as tireless as a steam engine.
