ated on the corner of Second street and
Utah avenue, Santa Monica. When
found he was dressed, minus his coat,
pants and hat, and was lying across the
bed, with his feet dangling over the side
boards.
After thorough search by Judge
Twichell and Deputy Sheriff Barretto,
the only article found to identity him
was letter addressed to Francis H.
DAILY, Soldierss Home, Santa Monica,
and signed by John Fl. DAILY, of the
DAILY Printing company of st. Louis.
He was last seen alive about O'Clock
Thursday afternoon. In the room in
which he was found, which, by the way,
was not his, but that of Illario Precido,
the cook of the French-Italian restau-
rant, there was pint bottle containing
about two ounces OF a reddish fluid,
enough chloroform to kill any
one. The bottle had no label, and
Precido, upon being questioned, stated
that he had procured the same from
Chinese doctor for rheumatism. While
it is impossible to say that the man died
from dose of the liquid, yet all indica-
tions point toward such a conclusion.

THAT PERRIs KILLING.
The Details About the Nance-Arm-
strong Encounter.

StiOAS A-aCouutCls
Frem a business man of Perris who
was in this city yesterday we learn that
Mr.. Armstrong, the man assaulted by
j. w. Nance, is improving right along,
and there are little fears entertained
now but that he will finally recover.
says the Riverside Enterprise of. yes
terday. Regarding the fight, it appears
that Armstrong was somewhat under
the influence of liquor at the time of
the difficulty, and in conversation
with Nance became abusive. Nance
started to leave him, saying that he did
not want anything to do with him,
whereupon Armstrong followed, and
called Nance several hard names. Nance
could not restrain his temper any longer
and finally struck Armstrong, knocking
him down. The conversation which
led up to the trouble in the first place,
was regarding some transaction in
which both men were interested. Arm
strong is 81 years of age, which fact
alone should have deferred Nance from
making the assault, but the abusiveness
of the old man outweighed the question
of age.

The name of the man who was lost on
the desert on the 4th of this month is
learned to be Alexander Straubenmuller,
says yesterdays San Bernardino Cour-
ier. He had lived in Los Angeles, where
it is understood he has some kind
of business with other parties, but
any particulars regarding him could not
be learned. The men who were with
him on the desert have returned from
there and have learned nothing as to his
fate, but have no doubt but that he per-
ished on the desert. 1t is learned that
he had an insurance of $4,000 on his
life, but it is not known in whose favor
the policy was drawn or in what COM
pany he was insured.

VERY GOOD RECORD
Sales for january Show Up Re-
markedly Well.
AWAY, In ADVANCE OF LAST YEAR
The Clearing House Reaches Satisfactory
Figures-A New Machine Com
pany-Resl Estate Notes.

In taking a retrospective view of the
real estate market during the past month,
dealers and owners alike may well feel sat-
isfed with the results. sWhile realty in
the east has been almost at a standstill
and money has been very close in other
cities, Salt Lake has made a record never
before known in the history of the city.
Some croakers have cried hard times and
others bewailed the close money market,
but their croakings and croanings have
been only as a ripple against the great tide
of prosperity which is sweeping over our
city. The recorded transfers during the
month which has just drawn to a close,
which do not include the large number of
sales made On contract. which will probably
exceed those of any similar period, foot up
to 81, 1928, 529, as compared with 1884, 072
during January of last year. When 1t is
taken into consideration that, in spite of
the close eastern money market, which no
doubt has deferred many eastern investors
from placing the amount of money in our
city which they under more favorable cir
cumstances would have done, the sales have
exceeded those of the previous year during
the same period more than one-t third of a
million dollars, it may well be said that
Salt Lake is in the most prosper
Gus condition she has ever been.
The past months sales are nearly
equal to those of January of the
two previous years, and as will be seen by
the following figures, the total January
sales of the fourpreceding years only exceed
this year by S549, 999, which amounts to
but little over one third in excess of jan
uary of this year. The sales made during
the month of January since 1857 are as fol
lows: 1887, S122, 729: 1888, 1924, G36 1889,
S472, 69l; 1890, S9S4,072; total, 81, So, 52S.
January, 1880. 81, 1923, 529.
If the record of January can be taken as
an index of the years transactions, then
the total will exceed $50, 600, 900 for the year
as compared with 10000, GOO for 1890, the
past four years having shown that On an
average the sales made during January are
one twenty-ffth of the years transactions.
