d. Van Buskirk cut quite dash yester-
day in a new silk tile, and some of the bows
were cruel enough to say that he also had
on brand new pair Of cotton socks. The
agents are all jealous of Van, and not with
out good reasons.

A. w. Stephan & Co. were yesterday ex-
hibiting barrel of potatoes raised by
Hiram Smith on his farm near Sandy
which averaged twenty five potatoes to the
bushel- They will be shipped to the super
intendent of the American Express COM
pany at Chicago. In size, color and shape,
they greatly resemble a Chicago girls foot.
George Carroll, of Lynch & Carroll, hes
just returned from the Sweetwater coun-
try, where he was looking for bear While
bathing in one of the mountain lakes, a big
cinnabar came down and gave him chase
Mr.. Carroll succeeded in beating the bear
across the lake and there was a lively foot
race across the mountains. After keeping
it up for ten miles Carroll laid down for
dead and expected bruin to make meal of
him. To his surprise the bear simply
raised on his hind legs and danced around
in an oh bejoyful style. This puzzled
young Carroll until it struck him that
he had seen the same bear at Salt Lake
with Dago giving dancing lessons to the
Garfield Beach and Harmony clubs. 1t at
once occurred to him that the bear had
taken him for his old master the Dago, he
being snnburned and brown from hunting
in the mountains. Taking advantage of
the situation be started across the country

If the specimens of crayon portraits ex
hibited in the shop windows are the bes
efforts of our artists the worst would scare
the witches out of town. Craven at hes
makes a dismal picture but when put OF
like lampblack it needs polishing to make ;
good shine.
1t is quietly limited that some of the
the street car conductors are sharing profits
with the company. The plan of conductor
ringing himself down has always beer
somewhat transparent.
Several dudes on bad terms with theil
tailors were seen dancing round in tbei

A man would not feel safe in being lie
down over 5000 foot precipice on the en-,
OF small wire. And yet he would b.
1885 feet farther from death than whel
passing under the overhead wires tina
dangle on our streets. The wires ar
stretched loose and only require the dro
to stretch man out.

the Inland salt works, was the run dow
to Garfield City, where the buffalo wer
