A DISPUTEO POss Es SION.
George rhonipson aud Miss Chf2pie
Lpeaie n .yistuFbahce ana Wisely
Gscaps TunIshIn.ns,

Last Monday morning report to the
effect that the wild man of Borneo"
was just put in Jail; followed up, dis
closed the following facts:
About 9 o'clock the people living
within a quarter of mile from the
darker section of town known as Thomp-
sonvile had their breath delayed by the
blood .curdling sounds OF woman
screaming for help.
Men came from all directions to the
scene Of action, where George Thompson
was seen tusseling with soiled dove Of
that neighborhood.
Officer Rives, one of the FIRST to get
there, seized Thompson, made him de-
sist, and then marched him to Jail. Soon
afterwards the assailant was allowed to
go on his own recognizance to appear at
D. m. for trial. Court assembled at
the appointed hour and Thompson was
discharged for the want of a complaining
witness.
WHAT THE TROUBLE WAS ABOUT
Appears to be this The rent of the
house wherein Thompson and his dove
do business came due last Sunday.
Knowing this, Miss Barber Chippie OBJ
tanned lease on the same house dating
from Sunday onward. Then came the
struggle for procession, in which Thomp-
son was best man, until, during his Mon
days promenade, Miss Barber attempted
to open the front door with an axe.
This was the occasion Of Thompson's
laying on hands and attempting, as he
said, to personally land her in Jail.
WHY SHE DIDN'T APPEAR
In court to swear out complaint is
probably due to an interview which took
place on Main street soon after the row
occurred. Thompson was seen talking
with Henry Gardner, who is said to be
business manager for Miss Barber; then
the two walked across the street and en-
gagged Miss B. in earnest conversation,
which lasted some time. 1t was then
they more than likely came to the wise
conclusion that they had best hang to-
gether. So much for this time. What
will come next remains to be seen; but
the fact is that the principals in this af
fair are no ornaments to our town, and
one of them at least is creating distur-
banse of one kind or another almost in
cessantly.
1t would be good plan for closer
watch to be kept and little more toll
collected from this disturbing element.

Town at the Mendha and Received
Serious Injuries.

An accident occurred at Jackrabbit
Saturday morning about s o'clock by
which Martin Fleming might have lost
his life, but fortunately for him he es.
capped with only broken arm and a few
bruises. At the time the accident &C.
Cured Fleming was under the influence
of liquor, but as Mr.. Hszelgrove was
laid up with rheumatic knee and Fore
man Shehan was in the mine when
Fleming went to work, it was not until
he was hurt that any one in authority
knew his alcoholic condition. He WIS
therefore permitted to 60 at his work Of
running the cars from the ore house to
the Onondago trestle, where they are
dumped into the flat cars. Mounting
the rear car at the top of the grade,
Fleming said to the boy who was with
him: "Here goes for mile minute"
and started. He did not check the speed
Of the car until near the trestle. 1t had
then attained such Roadway that the
brakes would not hold, and cars,
ore, man and all went over the end of
the trestle. The trestle is fourteen feet
high and some distance from the main
track of the railroad. Fleming was
thrown over the two cars and struck
upon the other track. He was picked
up unconscious and brought to Phoebe,
where DR.. Crowder, being informed by
telephone, was ready to attend to his
injuries. The doctor found one arm
broken and his head badly cut and
bruised; otherwise he was not much in
jured. 1t is said that drunken man is
not easy to Kill. This case seems to
substantiate that statement, but we with
others think that the more sober man
may be the less liable he is to accidents, an
that he stands an equal show with the
drunken man to escape injury in case Of
an accident

Silver n Living Issne.

If the value of silver here should fall
to so cents an ounce, as probably it
would if demonetized as the gold mono
metalists would have it, while its pur-
chasing power among two-thirds of the
population Of the globe continues at from
$l.33 to $l.3S, then the production of
silver in this country should be made a
crime, as its continual production and
sale here at a low price, while used in
other countries at high price, would
be destructive to our agricultural and
manufacturing interests.
The silver question therefore is the is
sue, and one that vitality concerns the
welfare of not only the industrial classes
but business men generally, and will not
down at the bidding of any party, nor
can it be ignored or lodged. 1t is a liv,
ing issue, and must be met and settled,
and the only permanent settlement Of il
is the restoration of free bimetalic coin.

A lamentable accident which occurred
at the Mendha mine last week resulted
in prostrating Morgan A. Stoddard, and
placing his future physical ability some
what in jeopardy. A heavy blow on the
spinal column, the outcome of a fall,
partially paralyzing his lower limbs, and
rendered him, temporarily at least, un-
able for work. After allowing a few
days in which to recover the worst effects
of his fall, his brother, "Nat' Stoddard,
arranged bed in the back of the com.
pany's light wagon and started with
him for his home at Milford.
The accident occurred between the
mine and the boarding house, while Nor
gan was coming off shift. He slipped Oh
the icy trail and struck on a projecting
stone. 1t is very much hoped by hi'
friends here that the present serious
aspect will soon turn to better one, anC
that their newly found young friend will
again be able to return in the full vigo
Of health.

Owing to the happy settlement OF the
base ball war between the two major
leagues, which are now consolidated into
one big league of twelve club', the out
look this season for boom IN base ball
is very bright, and every state is actively
engaged in organizing state leagues; and
our Utah neighbors, not to be outdons,
have also taken steps to have league,
composed of Salt Lake, Ogden, Pocatello
and few other cities not too far distant
from Salt Lake. We wish them success
in the venture, and when the season ends
we will send cur club up to meet and do
up the champions.
Buffer Slavin and Third-bag Mitchell,
having failed to raise the stuff to cover
Sullivans forfeit of $500, are now
exhibiting their shapes in the eastern
cities, trying to catch the much-sought.
after American dollar, and we hope that
the people will not be suckers enough to
pay to see this pair of bruisers. By stay
ing away it may cause them to get in
ring and fight for one of the big purses
which different clubs are willing to offer,
and then we will be able to see if they
are what they claim to be. This is very
| doubtful, especially with Mitchell, who
has been offered $1,000 purse for a go
between himself and Corbett, but posi-
lively declined.
At present there are no matches OF
very great Importance to take place, ex-
cepting the Needham-R Ryan fight, and as
that does not come off until March, it is
too early to predict winner.
The Olympic club of New Orleans has
offered $4,000 purse for Hall and
Fitzsimmons, but the former, not want
ing the job, the same terms were effered
Corbett. "Jim" also declined, stat
| ing that Fitz is not in his class, and if he
defeated him it would not add to his
credit any, and in this Corbett is per-
fectly right. The middle.weights all
seem to be afraid Of the auburn haired
kangaroo, and the only one that would
make good fight with him is Pritchard,
the English champion.
| Billy Frazier, once famous light
weight who retired from the ring several
years ago and went to preaching, has
again joined the corps of short hairs, and
writing to one Of the eastern papers says:
"After fearful struggle with my desire
of once more hearing the magic word OF
Time! l have thrown up the sponge as
clergyman and am going after the 1873
pound championship, and am now pre-.
pared to post forfeit to bind match al
any time.
On the Goth of this month Tom Cal
lagham, known as the Irishman," will
meet Cal Mccarthy at the Olympic club
for $1,000 purse, both to weigh in at

most of the money will be on Cll, anC
that he will win is sure CTR"
