The Reason Why.

"See here, what's the matter with
your Ogden news?" "How is it that
THE HERALD has not contained your
Ogden items for the last day or two2"
These and numerous similar questions
were poured into our ears on every
hand yesterday. The reason why our
Ogden news has not been published
lately, is on account of the enforced
absence of our agent from the city for
two or three days. Should we be alb
sent in the future, however, we will
make arrangements for the news just
the same, and will not disappoint our
readers any more in the future.

AN kLhC,EIC BOY.
SETS Fire TO Buildings ny Swapping
His Fingers at Them.

From San Francisco comes the follow
ing: An Investigation OF the story about
Willie Brou0h, the boy living at Turloek.
in the San joaquin Valley, who was sup
posed by supersiitious people TO set fire to
objects by merely fixing his eyes upon
them, cxplo ted that part OF 1t, OF course
He il evidently oyercharged with elec.
tricity to a remarkable extent. The snap.
ping OF his fingers causes sp1rks TO fly.
The postmaster OF Turiock had him relate
gieefully how he set fire TO wall
paper by this means. An insurance
agent, 1t is alleged, had refused to
take more risks on property IN the
neighborhood so long as the boy re-
manned there. The man, however, denies
this statement, but confirms the story OF
the peculiar electric phenomena, and de-
clares himself deeply interested from
scientific point OF view. Popular excite
ment has been so great since the story OF
the sinister power OF Master BrOugh was
circulated that the father has felt impelled
TO move away, and has gone TO reside on
the other side OF the San Joaquin river,
taking refuge with bis family In cottage
in the cottonwood timber, long
way from village or railroad. a re-
porter found him there. lie denlei
that his son had cau:ed fires, but adj
n,itted that be had told him that when w.
ing In he'd at night he saw sparks flying
about him. Willie ls an extremely nervous
boy. eleven years old, with largely-deyel.
oped head In melancholy way he said
that he did not know how the MYSTERIOUS
fires occurred. but said he saw sparks
about his own body at night. Nj. a. kuh.
man, who keeps school in Mercer county,
in which the alarm first began, describes
how five fires broke out in one afternoon in
different parts Of the school-h0use, beng
caused by no visible agency. Other scholars
were hastily dismissed. but Willie BrOugh
was detained A few minutes later he fixed
his ewes on hay-shed a few yards distant,
and called the teachers attention to the
fact that smoke issued from the same. Very
soon il was in blaze. The teacher for
babe him to come to school any more. lie
aoes not believe him guilty OF arson, but is
inclined to think he Is victim OF super
natural agencies. On the previous Sundiy
eleven mysterious blaZcs occurred in the
house of Williams father. One broke out
1T corner Of a roof, another in some bed
ding on the middle OF the floor, and the
third cbarred some grain.sacks the barn.
Willie looked at a straw-stack near by,
and flames issued out OF the top. The
mother of the boy is prOstrated with eX-
citement and anxiety. Many OF the inhab'
itants OF the country around TurlOck are
spiritualists, and implicitly believe that no
natural exclamation can account for these
occurrences.

honest Republican papers In this country.
II never minces matters, and never hedges.
II supported BLAISE In the last presidential
campaign, not because il had particularly

however, II did not hesitate 10 declare that
his defeat was fortunate thing. Thai

why People are Less Strong. Active,
and Happy Than I'm Past Years.

There was time when the world moved
along In the even course Of Its way; now
we are startled by earthquakes. dynamite
explosions, and surprising things In the hea-
vens and on earth. There was a time when
men and women went through life easily
and happily now they are troubled with
headache, sinking at the pit OF the stomach,
nervousness restlessness, shiverinys. fever
ishness. dullness, and latsltude. There was
q time when these troubles were called
chills, fever and ague, or shakes; now they
are all grouped under the single head OF
Malaria
But under whatever name this disease
may be known, II is terrible. 1t not only
destroys the happiness but 1t shortens the
