SOrruMful.

Harold Wo.dmansee, of Salt Lake,
who it is supposed has been sunstruck,
was found in front of his uncle's resi-
dence early yesterday morning. He
stated to his uncle that he was very
tired, and desired to be allowed to lie
down. This, of course. he was allowed
to do. Food. also, was provided for
MIN, but he did not partake thereof,
but went out, follow by his uncle.
Travelling at rapid rate in north
ward direction, his uncle thought it
best to ask the aid OF Sheriff Belnap.
The sheriff, with that instinct for which
he is famous, at once did double" on
the unfortunate young fellow and soon
had him ssfsly in his grasp. Police
Officer Elmer ond the sheriff afterwards
saw the-lt is o be hoped only temper
cry, brain-deranged young man-safe
to Salt Lake City. How he succeeded in
reaching the Junction City is at present
a mystery.

A Pointer.

The tonsorial artists of this rapidly
progressing city, on Monday evening
formed themselves into what is COM
monty called "a trades union" This
they have perfect right to do, and no
one, we think, would ever dream of de-
priving them of the privilege. At the
meeting, n ne rules or regulations were
carried unanimously, none Of which
the public, probably, will carp about.
There was, however, a little informal
talk which ended IN mutual under
standing that mo customer be admitted
after closing time had arrived; but that
all customers present before that time
be attended to, no matter how many
there might be in toe shop at that time. |"
Now, that strikes US as rather a
suicidal arrangement, tor this rea-
son: Who is going to take charge
of Father Time some appointed
officer of the union, or will the matter be
left to the Waterbury's and Centen-
nial's in the pockets Of the operators 2
Then, again, we confess to be of pro-
crastinatng temperamenl; We rush of
like mad to find that we are just too
late for admittarce into one establish
ment evidently full of customers. But,
Oh Eureka! we try another shop, and
find that while one is overfilled with
late custo r ers who contrive TO get IN
side lust Def time has expired" the
other, just as 2 I'D shaver, had to
fancy that his six minutes 10 the hour
didn't travel so rapidly as did the
tempuS fugit of his Acknowledgement.
This part of your constitution, boys,
will have to be overhanled.

Divorce Case,

Mrs, Clara Doll, of Perry township
has filed a petition for divorce in the
Court of Common Pleas, on the
grounds of gross neglect of duty and
extreme cruelty. She alleges in her
petition that she was married in OctO-
Der 1884 and ever since that time the
defendant has been guilty of gross ne
glect of duty by refusing to furnish her
with clothing and the common neces-
saries of life, although he was abund-
antly able to do so. She also AYERS that
the defendant was guilty of extreme
cruelty towards her by threatening to
cut her throat with razor, and at an
other time while under the influence OF
liquor and with corn chopper In his
hand he threatened to do her bodily
harm.
She states that she could no longer
bear with these threats and for her
safety she was compelled to leave him.

GONE UP IN SMOKE.
Disastrous Confiagration In Chicago Early
This Morning.

CHICAGO, Jan. 21.-[Special. Fire
was discovered this morning between
piles of boards in the yards of the So
per Lumber Co. The flames spread
rapidly, and soon enyelOped Henry Ste
vens's box factory on one side and the
the Soper Lumber Co.'S planning mill on
the other. Both were entirely destroy
ed. In the upper story of the box
factory machinery valued at $4,000
was rendered entirely useless. The
machines in the planning mill were also
destroyed. Several freight cars stand
ing on switch near the planning mill
which were filled with finished lumber
ignited from the sparks, and two of
them, belonging to the Chicago, Bur
lingtOn T. Quincy, and one each of the
Wabash and Chicago Il Atlantic
railroads were partially consumed.
Hard work on the part
of the tiremen, however, kept the flames
from eating into the pile of lumber
stored in the yards, and confined the
blaze almost entirely to the two build
ings. Soper & Co., had over 100000
feet of finished lumber stored in the
shed and planning mill, half of which
was destroyed. They estimate the loss
at S25,00O, fully protected by insurance.
Henry Stevens loss is principally upon
machinery, and will not exceed 5000.
