after Hubert, 10 doubt with muir
drrous design. Late last Saturday
night or early SUNDAY morning, 1t is
supposed the MUIR er was committed.
Hubert was found, ANYWAY, with two
bullet holes through his head, one
through his arm, and his clothes
showed that one ball had grazed hi,
left side.
1t appears that Saturday night the
wagon which followed the herd stop
ped anout ten miles from Arco, ON
the road 10 Little Lost River. The
sheep came to halt about a mile
this side the wagon. Armstrong
helped the old man and the others
drive the herd all dav SATURDAY., ate
supper with them that night at the
wagon, and when Hubert took his
blankets to 90 back aud sleep near
the sheep, Armstrong went along to
camp with him.

i, at Era, W. duesdav morning, and
Armstrong was hurrieGly put aboard

An hour or two after Armstrong

IL Cowen that he did the killing; tina
Blakely and Lyons had hired him TO
So to do the deed, and that the,
were to take the stock and skip of

l. sleeve and showed the mo"ey, which

day after the murder. They foun

Battle of San Jacinto,

A short time ago Dallas, Texas, cell
ebrated the tiftieth anniversary Of the
battle of San Jacinto. 1t was a great
occasion. The News editorially sums
it up as follows:
Venerable men who felled the prime
val forest, chased the blood thirsty
red man and whipped the cruel Next
can against greater odds than those Of
famed Thermopyla, and noble cid
ladies who now as then lent support
and inspiration by their presence,
leaned forward to catch the happily
framed sentences that recounted deeds
that tried their souls. The walls OF
the very building seemed to wear a
look Of approval and to echo the SEN
timent everywhere felt, well done good
and faithful servants OF Texas. Mrs.
Gordon, who came with her husband
in 1928, was there. Mrs. Stern, who,
with her two little babies before her
on horseback fled from the yelping In
dams, was there. Mrs. Briscoe and
Governor Lubbock, who danced to-
gether at Houston at the celebration
of the first anniversary OF the battle
Of San Jacinto, forty-nine years ago,
were there ready to dance again. Mrs.
Scnrry, who shared with her honored
husband the trials oflife on the Brazos
when Indians campsd on the tracks OF
the white man, was there.

Marrying All Day Long.

81 never saw SO much fun in the wed.
ding business as l saw down in Bur.
ilngton, N. j., the other day." said a
Scranton man who had just returned
from that town. "The young people
OF Eastern Pennsylvania dislike the
new marriage law verymuch, and they
have made Burlington a veritable
Gretna Green. The average number
OF marriages OF Pennsylvania couples
has been eleven a day for some time
past, and the epidemic appears to be
on the increase. One Sunday not long
ago thirty couples went there to be
married. called at the house OF the
parson who is an old acquaintance OF
mine, and he was so overrun with
work that he asked me to stay and
see him tie the young lovers who had
come there across the river from the
Keystone State. The hall was filled
with waiting couples, and the minis
ters's study and parlor had all they
could hold comfortably. The green
country chaps and fellows from the
villages enjoyed the jam ever so much,
and the girls giggled and accepted the
situation gocd.naturedly. AS fast as
one couple were pronounced husband
and wife all the others offered their
congratulations, although in nearly
every case the parties had never seen
one another before.

up and not get excited by the Jolly
would-be husbands, and one told him
to keep a stiff upper lip, as the agony
would not last long. When hemarch-
ed out into the hall he was greeted by
suchexclamations as 'Pshaw. it didn't
hurt you half as much as youthought
1t would and %, you're all right, if
you did look scared!' The much
frightened groom got out OF the house
as quickly as he could, put his bride
in an open carriage, and started for
Pennsylvania.

Breath Catching Fire.
Doctor Beatson in British Medical Jour

Doctor Beatson Ill British Medical Jour
nal.
Ihave thought it right to put on
record the following case, as it seemed
to me to be one OF some rarity and to
have some lmDOrtancefrom q medicO-
legal point OF view. | cannot do bet
ter than give the facts in the words OF
the patient himself, who communicate
ed them to me by letter. He writes
as follows
"a rather strange thing happened
to myself about a week ago. For q
month or sol was troubled very much
with foul quotations. / had no pain,
but the smell of the gas which came
from my stomach was disngreeable to
myself and to all who happened to be
in the room. About a week ago as l
said, | gotup in the morning and light
ed a match to sec the time, and when
| put the match near my mouth to
blow it out my breath caught fire and
gave a loud crack like the report of a
pistol. l burned my lips and they are
still sore. l got a terrible surprise
and SO did my wife, for the report
awakened her"
From the above occurrence it would
appear that the conditions known as
''halitosis," or diseased breath, is not
only a source OF misery to the sufferer
and those compelledto associate with
him, but may, under certain circum-
stances, become a condition OF dan
ger to the unfortunate possessor OF it.
In the present instance the gaseous re.
suits OF the imperfectly digested food
had their atoms Of carbon and hydro
gen so arranged as togive rise to the
presence of carbureted hydrogen, the
int1ammable and explosive qualities
OF which came into play when mixed
with a due proportion OF atmospheric
air in presence OF the unguarded light
OF the burning match. l may aud
that the patient to whom the accident
happened is a most intelligent and OBJ
servant man, and that the diet I pre-
scribed for the indigestion from which
he suffers from time to time has alco-
hol excluded from it, and | know that
my instructions in that respect are
acted upon.

Sam Jones and his Temptcr

AAohi II SulCdSc 4TlDune, r.
A report comes that the Rev. Sam
Jones is nervous, almost i'll, from the
abandonment Of tobacco. The news
papers Of his own State do not en-
courage him in his reform. One of
them quotes the experience Of Judge
jeremiah Black as a warning. A cor.
respondent is referred to who saws
that, latter Judge Black came to
Washington as Attorney General and
had to work very hard, he took up
the notion that tobacco was bad for
him; SO one morning he concluded to
let the evil thing alone. He went
down to his Off ce feeling as if he had
lost his best friend. 1t was his duty
to 20 up to the Supreme Court and
argue a case. He went and made the
poorest argument of his life. He
thought the Judges were n set OF NUT
ton-heads. Then he went to see the
President, and for the first time sus.
pected he Was an old hypocrite. He
went back to his Office, quarreled
with his clerks, kicked his offce-boy,
and swore for the first time in twenty
years. He was finally advised by a
clergyman to return to his habit and
his former good nature, and. followed
the advice" 1t is doubtful though, ii
this quotation Of Judge Blacks ex-
p%erience is logical. He did not hold
on against the enemy long enough.
1t is the first step that hurts. The
mere fact that the nerves have become
so dependent upon nicotine for their
support indicated an abnormalcondi-
ton which should be a signal for re-
volt. We have faith in Rev. Sam
Jones' courage. and believe he will be.
come a free man again, relentless
STAKEHOLDER though tie nicotine pow
er may be. At any rate, tbs preacher
should be encouraged.

Of this deplorable affair, he was never

to feel generous shame at the wrong
that had been done. This, and unaf-
fected sympathy for the grief and des-
olation of the elder sister, caused his
blue eyes tcgrowdim with tears, which
the girl noted.
"She hoped you would go to her

Thurston bowed his head and left

to his club to tell the story. In

RAYMOND EXCURSIONISTS.
Fifty of Them Doing Salt Lake En-
Route to Colorado

Io-day's train from the west brough
to Salt Lake some fifty of the RAYMOND
excursionists who passed through thi.
city en- route to California last November
and December. They are in charge OF
MIR. Y. Hutchins and his assistant, W. I'll
Saywood.
MIR: Hutchins said to our reporter to-
day that this is the first party of any size
OF the several hundred excursionists who
went West last fall and in the early win
ter. that has left the coast for their return
trip. Thes will remain over till Monday.
and then proceed to Manitou Springs.
Col, for short stay. Mr.. Hutchins states
that the number of excursions to the
racine Coast the past winter far exceeds
that OF any previous year, save on the &C.
casion OF the grand conclave, and in some
OF the pleasure resorts the capacity and
1aclliues have been pressed to the utmost.
particularly In Southern California. He
lett over 800 guests of his own party
at the Hotel Del Monte, and the Palace
Hotel, he says. has never had such a
crowded house since the visit of the
Knights.
The whole of the Raymond excur-
slonists will be taken East between now
and the last OF May, in periodical parties,
ana all will spend day or two in Salt
Lake City en- route.
There has been no reduction in rates.
so that the great growth in the excursion
business, Mr.. Hutchins thinks, is due
wholly to an increased interest.
Colonel Webb Moore met to-day's
party at Corinne and extended the
courtesies of the d. & r. G.
