Last Saturday, while Noah Boynton
was driving his tour-years-old engine
from Wolcott to North Wolcott, with
caboose attached, loaded with live stock
and merchandise. he left the track while
making flying switch at point where
the so called ''hollow" road empties into
the river road, unloading the stock and
merchandise in the snow. Engineer
Boynton was unable to close the throttle
or put on air brakes. The caboose right
ed up and the engine took the track, but
was not stalled until it reached Mr.. War
ren's horse barn. leaving engineer Boyn-
ton, Moses and the merchandise by the
way-side. Noah looks as if he had met
John Sullivan. No serious damage was
done, though we have not heard from
Moses, whether he took to the WOO DIS
or the next train back to Wolcott.

Irish lass pursued by designing

pressed by British red coats; Irish
peasants i'll poverty and squalor, while
around them are the nobility in indo-

pathos constantly broken into by Irish
wit; the clandestine visits of Irish
"rebels" to their desolate homes {;

With death imminent-when a dying

The company strove hard to master
the ''brogue," but without success;
and, earnest and conscientious as Mr..

She forgot her brogue not once, and

The Bullion Strike On Wood River.

The Bullion Strike On Wood River.
Salt Lake Tribunel
The Wood River papers have been
reporting strike in the Bullion mine,
and representing that it was made by
men employed by the Durango COM
pany, which has been making an up
raise to tap their ledge. The papers
also say that this strike is liable to
cause trouble between the two com.
panies, the ore being claimed by the
Bulllon-Ophir company, while the
Durango made the discovery.
Colonel Wall, who lately came from
Wood River, says that there has been
no strike, and that the drift where it
is reported to have been made has not
been advanced since work was stopped,
sixteen or eighteen months ago. One
of the miners, in looking at the face
of the drift, knocked down some vein
matter in which were seen small
pieces of galena, only few ounces in
all, and which locked better than the
ledge had looked before. That caused
the report of the strike. The place is
several hundred feet from the end OF
the mine. The owners of the Bullion
and Ophir have faith that there is lots
of ore in the claims, and that it will
be brought to light in time, but it has
not been struck vet.
