Mr.. Samuel Worsencroft returned home from
England last night where he had been for two
years on mission and visiting. He was well
coined home by his family and many friends,
and was in excellent health and spirits.
About ten more young meu left here yester-
day morning on the Union Pacific TO find
NEW HOMES
on the lands lately coming into market, formerly
held under the Fort Bridger claim. in Wyoming.
A few had been out before and taken up land
for farms ana homes and the reported pros
pect was so fiattering that the second company
started for the same purpose, and we hope they
will not be disappointed.
Psyson is settling upon many regions. Pay
son families have emigrated to Emery and
ments. Many have gone to Arizona and Mex
leo.
TIMES ANE YET DULL.
We are constantly visited by commercial
statesmen soliciting trade. but their orders are
few and small in comparison with last year.
One or two of the dry goods firms have stopped
and closed, and now the saloon men are feeling
the push and some changes have been made in
the ownership of them, and parties are selling
their interests out to others. 1t is mystery
how we support so many saloons. We have
five and one drug store. Mr.. Sorley has re-
moved his drug store to Spanish Fork and con-
solidated the two, having had in each
town, and with him went his lady clerk Miss
Lille Stark, who will assist him in Spanish
Fork, we'll no telling how long, She is quite a
necess airy adjunct TO the concern.
OUR SPORTING
friends are making some preparations for a
handicap foot race, also some horse races and
trotting races, which will be advertised for May
day.
INSURANCE
men have got US all pretty well taken here and
have made Payson a sort of headquarters
during The winter seasen, but we are very pro-
10 of nil
nevertheless, and keep paid up. We have resi-
dent agents besides which count up to five
separate agencies here and each carries one or
more companies.

machinery, wagons, buggies, etc., and are re-

and Hancock & Hlghams have opened up in the
