runaway four-horse team made things
| lively in Ontario canon Thursday after
noon. Theodore Parker was engaged in
! hauling giant powder to the mine, and had
driven into the wrong place. He was turn
| ing TO get out when the team became IN
manageable and started down the canon.
Parker was thrown from the wagon and
! seriously hurt. He was picked up and re-
| moved 10 the himbau, in town, where he
received medical attention. II was some
! time before he recovered consciousness.
The team went on, keeping the road until
mouse, when the wagon, which
was loaded with eighty boxes
OF powder, struck wood pile and became
a wood pile itself. Even this terrible Jar
did not cause the powder to explode, which
| was due probably to the fact that it was
frozen. 1t was a dangerous experiment
with ton Of powder, and the people living
Ia the canon can congratulate themselves
| upon their narrow escape.

two hundred shares were withdrawn, and
| others were getting ready to pull out A
local association was being talked up in
orker to keep at home all the money which
was going out of the town. At this time
the National of Salt Lake, stepped in and
promised that if the stock would be trans
| ferred to it, every cent paid by the town
would be returned to 1t in loans, when ap-
piled for. This had the effect of causing a
withdrawal of nearly 700 shares from the
Columbia and the investing of
The Heber branch of $50. shares
had already applied for their cash on
account of dissatisfaction, but decided to
to transfer it to the National. The Column
bia folks, as q consequence are wild, and
have sent a man TO the PARK who is trying
TO make things pleasant for the National.
| Business is business and building and loan
associations whether Columbia or National
must do the square thing or step down and
out. The Columbia man. who is now here
says he will see that some of the applicants
will get their leans, rather late in the game
| to see to such things, amonth or two earlier
would have been better time.
| Word was received in the Park Friday
evening of the death in Salt Lake of Mrs
Mary a. Waddill. Mrs. Waddill was COM
PEELED to leave the Park some time ago on
account of her health, but the change
done her no good. She was an estimable
woman and will be remembered in the
Park for her many deeds Of kindness anti
ministrations among the sick. She
