A MAMMOTH surprise in honor of Pre-.

MISS ALICE FosGREEN has opened up

TEN whole days, and no fine. is what
the tramp got who, with gun, brought
Johnny Shields up standing at The de-
pot the other evening.
enables KELLY, N. P. Rasmussen
and George l.. Graehl have each been

Our Coop. has had another serious
setback in the washing out or under
mining of their machine shops. The
foundation was so impaired as to cause
large block of the east wall to cave in.
WE wonder how it is so many people
have run away with the impression
that Commissioner Darlington would
have bought Morris YouRg's farm but
for lawyer COomb's dlsqualifying
clause.
A MAN just In from the western part
of the county says he summed up over
100 dead animals on the Promontory
range alone, their carcasses lying within
counting distance as he passed along
the road. The stencil is almost unbear-
able.
THE young man Evans, who was
killed on the Central Pacific, and so
horribly mutllated, was son of Jonah
Evans, formerly of this place, now
Bishop of Samaria, Idaho. The father
suspects foul play on the part of
tramps.
THE only race at the track on Satur-
day was a trot, to carts, between
. .
George" and Barnard's "Son of Mid
night The latter was drawn at the
finish of the first heat; and Chief won
race and money, after q sJubbornly
contested fight for first place. J. 81.
Grant, of your city, held the ribbons
over the winner.
THERE seems to have been precon-
certed plan on the part of tramps to
81 ho
other night. In addition to the two
failures up the road, already published,
and for which q reward was offered by
the company, a third attempt was made
just south of this place. on the same
evening, wherein a rubble. or push car,
belonging to Section 104, was placed
upon the main track run into by the
passenger train and knocked into q
thousand pieces.
THERE is one on an ex-county official,
resident of this place, but now living
I temporarily on his farm at Deweyville,
that is too good to lose, SO We give it
the widest publicity through THE
HERALD. The said ex-of6cio came to
town the other day and arranged with
one of Our enterprising merchants to
exchange a lot of 6rst-class seed wheat,
questioned and ready for sowing, for
an inferior grade, but the difference in
quality to be little more than made
up in quantity. Accordingly, the
hired man, a NEWCOMER. was dis
patched from DeWeyyille with
the grain the next day, accord
| ing to agreement, and with
instructions to take it to a certain
place, there to exchange it for other
wheat and that to be taken to the mill
and ordered chopped for pig feed. The
new conner took the wheat to the wrong
place, OF course, turned it into pig
meat and returned with his load of
pork. He does not understand English
very well, but he got enough of this to
know that pig came in in his instruc-
tions somewhere; hence his sWop for
bacon. The following morning, bright
and early, ex-Sherif So and So might
have been seen on his way from D.. to
B., a distance of sixteen miles,
miles, drying in hot haste and
having in bis wagon every pound of
the new comer's dead pig; be went at
once to the other party implicated in
the trade only to learn that the SEED
weeat had been mixed with another lot
and sent to the mill. If there are any
cases of vitriol poisoning IN our neigh
bOrhOOQ AFTER tnlS,' we VIII know right
where to place our hands upon the Gull
prit who mixed the dose. The ex-sheriff
could not trade back, and is now think
ing seriously of establishing a pork
packing industry to work off mis- stock
on hand.
THE Brigham brass band boys will go
to Pocatello and Eagle Rock, Idaho, to- |
morrow to participate in the 1. O. o. F.
celebration on the Goth. The Reporter,
semi-weeKly sheet, thereupon boils
over with envy in the following:
THE AND WILL. NOT CO.
A hitch, or misunderstanding or some.
thing of that sort has occurred between the |
committee of the I. o. o. F. and the Poca-
telio Cornet Band, and in consequence the !
latter will not accompany the lodge to Eagle |
Rock, nor will BARS Orchestra play for the |
ball at that place on the evening of the 26th |

asked by our home band was considered
little to nigh by the committee and arrange |
