A Hazardous Choice.

On Wednesday last, at Nephi,
while James Barton, of the Twenty
first Ward, this city, was at work on
q tank connected with the water
works system Of that town, the lad
der upon which he was standing
tipped backwards. He had the al
tentative Of falling on his back from
3 height OF sixteen feet or leaping
backwards from the ladder. With
much presence of mind he chose
the latter plan, and jumped TO the
ground, alighting on his feet The
jar seriously injured his lower
limbs. He was brought TO this city
and taken to his residence, and has
since been under medical treatment,
but suffers intense pain from the in
juries to his heels.
1t is somewhat Of a coincidence
that the accident occurred about the
same hour as the one which befel
his nephew, Brigham Barton, in
this city. The latter still endures
great pain from his injuries, though
it Is slowly subsiding.

DEATH on rHE RAILS.
An UsknoWs Man Crushed to Death
By the Wheels Of IN Engine.

Eleven days ago, Mike Brady
came to Provo, from Thistle, where
he had been working on the r. G.
w. Railway extension. He had
not been in the city long before he
was ssrun In" by the police for be-
ing drunk. He was "sent ups for
five days by Justice Noon, and after
his time had expired, was allowed
to remain five days longer, as Ee
had burned his leg and required at
tention. Yesterday morning he
left the Jail. stating to Officer Hill,
to whom he seemed to have become
somewhat attached, that he was
going 10 Park City, where be ex-
pected TO get work. He had $3.50
In his pocket and before starting on
his journey visited some of the
saloons Of the city, and became in
toxicated. While In this condition,
at about 2 O'Clock, he attempted to
mount o Nat car that Turned
a part OF a Union Pacific freight
traip, which was being switched at
the depot. He was not observed by
any OF the train men until after he
had fallen on the track and several
car wheels had passed over him.
His left leg and right foot were
completely crushed. He was picked
up in an insensible condition and
carried into the station house where
he was laid on a cot. DR.. Pike was
called and bandaged the wounds
sufficiently to prevent the man from
bleeding to death, bat he expressed
his opinion that the nan could not
possibly live beyond few hours;
the only thing that kept the flame
of life burning being the liquor he
had drunk. Braiy soon became
but did not seem to
realize his condition. He remarked
that he would be all right In
the morning and that it was
the result Of getting drunk.
etc. at about i:30 O'Clock
he was removed to more comfortable
quarters in the second story Of the
city jail, where opiates were ad-
to him by DIR. Simmons.
He died at $40 O'Clock, apparently
without having suffered but very
little pains. His last words were TO |
Officer Hill. "Hill," he slid, 81
was trying TO get away, when I got
hurt" He was neatly dressed ut
the expense Of the county and will
receive decent burial.
The inquest has been postponed
until 6 O'Clock this evening, 1t being
impossible to secure the witnesses
any sooner.
II is stated that Brady was for
some time In the employ Of John
w. Young, in Arizona, several years
ago. Farther than this, very little
seems to be known In relation TO his
past history. He was about 50 years
of age.-Eafnrsr.

FARGO, N. D., Oct. l3.-F. s. Ian.
derhill, one of the railroad commissioners
Of North Dakota, who resides at Ante
lope, west of the Missouri river, reports a
deplorable condition OF affairs among the
ranchmen of his district. resultant from
the recent almost unprecedented prairie
fires. Between the Hart and Cannon
Ball rivers, and in the valleys of both, the
d~estitution has been almost complete.
while about Killdeer mountain aud east
OF there nothing is left for stock to live
upon.
At Riverside ranch. at the mouth of
the Little Hart river, 500 tons Of hay and
300 head OF cattle were burned.
At Parkins' ranch, on Cannon Ball
river. the loss was heavy. The fire is
travelling with such fury as to go com
pletely through the villages. In almost
every instance in the valleys the small
farmers have lost their crops and feed for
the winter. The wind blew a hurricane.
At Riverside rapch the fire breaks were
800 Feet in width and the flames leaped
over them The ranchmen are inclined
TO lay these fires to the Indians from Fort
Yates reservation, who come up into the
valleys and drive the game south, burn
the prairies behind them to prevent the
game from guing back. The rauchmen
propose to take the matter before the
authorities TO prevent a repetition of this
calamity.

CHICAGO, Oct. 14--A safe opening test
which in sensational accomplishments dis.
counts the wonderful feat of tombstone,
the mind reader, took place in the Hotel
Wayne early this morning. The operator
was Henry Il. Adams, a young man from
Minneapolis, who came to Chicago some
weeks ago and took rooms at the Wayne.
There he became acquainted with a young
man, who, although Adams did not know
this, was a cousin of the proprietor
Within the past few days Adams pro-
posed to him to rob the hotel safe. He
was to get up at 4 O'Clock in the morning
and do this. The hotel proprietor was
advised by his cousin, who at the same
time pretended to be an accomplice in the
Adams plot.
Two detectives we're hidden iu the office
last night, and this morning at the ap-
pointed time Adams came in. The won
dering officers watched him, without tools
or explosives. prepare to open the massive
safe, although it was evident that he did
not know the combination. He pared
the nail of his index finger on the right
hand until the blood vessels were exposed.
Then placing the sensitive wound on the
knob of the combination lock he could
distinguish the movement of the tumblers
as they fell. For an hour he worked.
while the detectives scarcely dared to
breathe. At last there was a sharp click
and Adams swung back the door.
With a sigh of relief he reached into
the safe and laid his hands on a package
Of bills, but much to his discontinue the
officers stepped forward at the same mo-
ment and placed him under arrest.

Tho passage of the silver bill in this
country has affected the iewelry trade
in more than one particular. The price
Of sterling tableware has already been
increased, n now dvices from Europe
indicate that, owing to the new law,
the increase in the value of the Indian
rupee has caused the prices of pearls
and fancy stones to rise to unprecedented
figures. A well known importer Of col.
ored stones in explaining the situG.Au
said to a reporter;
LAS you probably know, the money
standard in India is the silver rupee.
Last February this coin was worth about
Is. Aid. in English money. or about "a
cents in United States money About
that date. in anticipation of the new law
in the United States, the rupee began to
advance in value. until today it is worth
Is. 10td., or 40 cents. All colored gems
and pearls that are exported from India
to England to sell on commission are
paid for in Indian exchange. and uatu-
rally the goods that arc at present for
sale on the other side will have to bring
from 20 to 25 per cent more i'm order TO
net their value in rupees.
There are some lots Of Indian cut
goods on hand, however, which were re.
reived before the advance. and on which
advances at the old rate of exchange
were made. These are still purchasable
at the old price. The price of colored
stones has been gradually increasing for
years, and dealers will feel the new rise
keenly. An offer which | made on one
lot of goods was refused. The owner
had declined an offer of ten per cent.
less several months ago. and he appar-
emily now values his gems at more than
ten per cent. above their former price.
During the next few months we may
expect a decided advance in the price OF
pearls. rubies and emeralds. Sapphires
will probably be less affected. as of late
their sale has been limited. and dealers
will naturally sell old stock at the usual
prices as long as they yield a profit

New YoRk. Oct. I4.-Adyices from
London this morning were most depress-
ing. The scarcity of money was traced to
the precautionary action of the Imperial
bank of Germany, which created the fear
that the minimum rate of discount would
be raised and the carrying Of stocks e n
dered more expensive in the near future.
Political complications between England
and Portugal also had an influence in crea-
ting uneasy feeling there. The declines
