"RELAT TING TO SENA TOR Crosby"
Under the above heading the Rock
County Herald of last week contained
singular article concerning the late
senator from this district. Without
directly charging Mr.. Crosby with sell.
ing his votes in the legislature, it in
Inmates that he did 50, and dwells up.
on the enormity of the offense. It al
SO intimates that in future issues it
will present facts which the people
fought to know and consider"
1t is an adroitly written article,
without direct charge in it. and yet
is so full of inuendo and severe COM
ment upon what is limited at, as to
amount to libel.
Senator Crosby is yet to be heard
from and we expect him to dispose of
this matter in way that will be satis-
factory to his constituents. There is
bitter political fight up in Rock
county and the Herald element is ar
rayed against Mr.. G. and this is why
the article is published. We hope for
the good of all concerned that the Her.
aid will have to acknowledge that it is
''mistaken.'' -

PREFACE TO THE VOLUME.

PREFACE TO THE VOLUME.
Poetry is its own excuse for being,
And Poems are begOtten and not made,
Being af one substance with the poets soul:
The living germs, lowered with perpetual life,
Are in the mind. till vivifying Love,
Clasping the poet in divine embrace,
Draws forth the spark Of an immortal song,
Which. fed and cultured, grows to its own
sphere,
Like developed and harmonious spirit,
A glory and 4 comfort to the world!
Suggestion IS the law of Poetry.
Poetry is the spirits lightning, which reveals,
BY vivid flashes OF electric thought.
Chat dread, ,ivine gratuity named life;
FathOmlesS yearnings, mysteries infinite.
Sell. wars, ,&Oul-triumphs. white hot agOnies,
As light ming bursts reveal the infinite night,
FathOmlesS skies Of cloud, vast scopes Of earth
Wide sea expanscS. looming mountain heights.
Deer. .yawning CULTS and rivers, plains and
woods.
Poetry is the language of the skies,
The Heavens commune IN musical discourse;
All lives must live to music or must perish;
The law of deathleSS life il Harmony.
The Poets pen is the enchanter's wand
The Ithuriel spear, the sceptre Of the king;
The masters baton and the painters brush,
Tripod and trident and diviner's rod,

THREE CAUGHT AT PENNINGTON.
old Mnn clark Makes n Break For
liberty, But IL EOllcd.

Marshal Dyer, Captain Greenman,
and Deputies Vandercook and Smith,
went to Pennington early this morning
and brought three cohabs. as reward
of their early rising.
They first captured William II. Wat
son, who is in charge OF the Utah Cen
trail station at that place, and taking him
along with them they found Ezra Clark.
Marshal Dyer remained at Clark's house
with the two prisoners while the three
deputies went off on another trail.
They visited the house Of Leonard q.
Rice, who had gotten up before break
fast, and had gone out to feed the hogs.
As they approached Rice saw them, and
had fairly good chance to get away,
but he stood and faced the music. He
said he was ready to go, and would have
been just the same, had they come a
year before.
When the boys got back to Clark's
house they found that the Marshal had
but one prisoner left. Mr.. Dyer explained
that old man Clark had stepped into the
house for moment and without stopping
to look behind he had skipped out the
back door and down garden path into
the oak brush below. The Marshal could
not leave the other prisoner, and he was
therefore obliged to wait for the return
of the deputies, which gave the refugee
good start.
Greenman and Vandercook immedi-
ately started down the path after them,
the latter soon discovering II footstep in
the mud. Following this track down
for some distance, they came to a thick
clump Of oak. The leaves were covered
with water, and it was difficult navigat-
ing through the thicket. AT last, how
ever, Vandercook came upon the old
fellow crouched in the bushes, and in a
few moments he was back to the house.
The old fellow is probably 20 years of
age, and considering the disagreeable
weather, he made very good attempt
at an escape. When found he was
literally wet through with the rain
from the trees and bushes, but he did
not seem to mind this much. After a
goodly number Of witnesses had been
subp9naed, the party started for this
city, and landed at the Marshal's Office
shortly before noon.
Later in the day they were all taken
before Commissioner Mckay to plead tC
the charge.
Watson was the first one arraigned. He
was charged with living with Hannah
Watson and Mary Newbold. He pleaded
guilty and was released on u 81 900 bond
signed by Jospeh E. Robinson and James
r. Miller.

The Olympic Exhibition.

The Olympic exhibition, to take place
at the Walker Opera House this week,
Friday evening, promises to be unques-
tionlbly the most varied, perfect and
il esting athletic entertainment ever
gwen in Salt Lake City. All who were
present at the first exhibition given by
this popular club, some two months ago,
will not fail to be present with their
lady and gentlemen friends on Friday
evening next. Manager Reckhart has
all the gymnastic apparatus on the
stage, and OF an evening Mcdonald,
Slade, Smith, Slatterly, Mcmillan, Lang,
L. Duncan, Harry Edwards, Kegler,
and Stone, besides a score of other
equally good athletes can be seen prac-
ticing for the entertainment. Messrs.
Gordon, Lynn, Winslow, Ellerbeck
Keats, Brastow, Sprague, and many
others are regular participants
in all the healthful exercises
OF the society and the good results OBJ
tanned are plainly shown by witnessing
their we'll developed muscles and grace
full performances during an hours exer-
else.
Many ladies and children were present
at the former exhibition, who will not
miss Friday nights entertainment OF
real pleasure and novel interest The
Olympic Club is a deserving institution
and merits the patronage OF every citizen.

LOCAL J0TS.

The appearance of rustling collectors on
the street reminds one that another month
has just begun.
Professor Titus and his band started out
serenading last night, but his trip was cut
short by the rain.
The Olympic boys have moved all their
apparatus to the Opera House. About thirty
of them were engaged in practice there last
evening.
The hdbeds corpus case will probably be
continued until tomorrow, as Brother
Moyle and Mr.. Varian are both busy on the
Clark case.
The rain which began falling last night
and has kept up in an intermittant manner
ever since, has done much towards cooling
the atmosphere. The air feels cool and sa-
luxurious, and in fact the change is perfect
Godsend.
DR.. Bower performed an operation upon
the foot of Mrs. McDaniels this morning.
The lady has suffered for n long time from

and the prospects for an entire recovery are

The NelOs of last night states that the
$4,000 received by Messrs. Sharp and Little
as n reimbursement for the bond they paid
for Cannon, was paid to them by Cannon
himself. This may be so, but, if it is, what
became of the amount that was collected
from the Saints for this purpose.

THE CLARK TRIAL.
witnesses Who Don't Know Any
thing-TwO Shreyd wives.

The case Of old man Clark was taken
up in Judge McKay's Court this after
noon, and during the examination some
rare inaccuracies were developed.
Miss Alice Clark was the first witness
called. She stated that her father had
two wives that she knew of, Susan
and Mary, and finally she reluctantly
admitted that Mrs. Nancy Clark was
reported to be his wife.
Miss Anna Clark was next called. She
said that her mother, Mrs. Susan Clark,
was defendants second wife, that Mary
Clark was his first wife and that Mrs.
Nancy was reputed to be his third wife.
Next came Mrs. Susan Clark, who
proved to be q very expert know-nothing.
She didn't know that the defendant
was married to anybody. She could
not tell whether or not anybody
was married unless she saw the ceremony
performed, and, she could not be sure
that she herself was married. Her hus-
band had ceased to live with her
several years ago, for no particular
reason. 1t was long before the
passage of the Edmunds Law. She
said that they had not agreed to separate,
but his leaving was ''just promiscuous. -
To this last remark Mr.. Varian aptly re-
joined: "And l suppose you've been
living up to it Just promiscuously' ever
since"
Mrs. T. p. Clark and her husband were
examined, but neither of them knew
anything.
Mary Clark, the first wife, would not
admit single thing, and was dismissed
as worthless.
Up to the time OF going to press the ex-
animation had not been completed, and
the prospects are that it will take the
rest of the afternoon,

A NEW IDEA.
Isaac BrOcItbnnk Hits Upon - New
plan For HeCOmIDg u ".sartyr."


Isaac Brockbank, clerk in Me tthing
office, came to the front yesterday with
an idea which was quite novel in its ma
ture, and which must seem quite refresh
ing to the officers, who are usually Obliged
to resort to all kinds of strategy and Wig
lance in order TO catch a cohab.
Brockbank went to the Marshal's office
yesterday afternoon, and said that ii
there was anything against him he would
like to be arrested and have the matter
settled. 1t was found, upon looking the
matter up, that there was complaint
filed against the man, and he was there
fore taken into custody until this morn
ing, when he appeared before Judge
Mckay. He was allowed to waive exam
nation and was released on q 81 600 bond
signed by John A. and Hyrum Grosbeck
His family have already been subpmnaed
to appear before the Grand Jury as wit
nesses on the 10th inst.
Brockbank says that he was tired Of
skulking around and trying to evade the
law. He did not intend to deny that he
had violated the statutes as construed by
the courts here, and If he was liable to
punishment he was willing to take it.
The complaint charges him with living
with Kate Howard Brockbank and Mary
Ann Parks, between the last day OF May
1885, and the first day OF July, 1886 He
has two homes, one on Eighth South
street, in this city, and the other in Cot.
tonwood.
Whether this action on the part of Mr.
Brockbank can be taken as sincere de-
sire to submit to the laws, or as simply a
scheme for attaining the crown OF mar
tyr, it would be hard to say; but taking
it either way, it is labor-saving opera.
