The Holocaust at the Oak Spring
Ranch.
NJ. t. Otis Arrested at ogden, Charged
with a Henious Offense-Artisan
Wells in Parowan.

Last Friday. about 5 p. m, fearful
burning took place, and makes the
blood run cold to hear of it Two little
children, one 2 and the other years
old, of Mr.. Ben Wing, out at the Oak
Spring ranch, were playing in the stack
yard. From the facts as they were
gathered from the little boy, and subse-
quently, after finding the roasted body,
it appeared that the children were at
play ia an old pig sly that had become
partly filed with straw while thresh-
ing. The mother was sick abed in the
house and the children had been per-
mitted to go unattended. The elder
boy said that they Rnade a fire to play
with and the little one was in the pen
when the straw caught afire. The
mother heard the screams and rushed
out, but could not find the child, be-
cause of the flame and smoke, but
finally the unfortunate was found in
the corner of the pen literally roasted,
with its brains oozing out of its head

Snuffed out the world may die for the

owing to the interchangeable efforts of

A HUMAN BRUTE.
NJ. 7. Otis Charged with a Horrible and
Revolving Crime.

Yesterday morning at a little before
3 o'clock a middle-aged lady and her
frail 13-year-old daughter appeared at
police headquarters and complained of
the husband of the lady, NJ T. Otis,
alleging that he had been guilty of
criminal intimacy with the little girl,
his stepdaughter Otis was soon APP
pretended and placed in jail, his pre-
lininary examination being set for
yesterday afternoon before Commits
sioner Gideon. Owing to some mis-
take the complaining witness did not
appear, consequently the man was ia
ken under a new warrant by the Uni
ted States marshals and he will be
arraigned on Monday.
The story as told by the woman,
wife of Otis, is that she was married
to him in Kansas, she being a widow
with this one child. The woman is in
a delicate condition and she alleges
that for the last six weeks Otis has
been cohabiting with his little 10 year
old stepdaughter, the mother not
knowing of it until Friday night. when
she made the complaint. The details
of the affair as narrated by the moth
er and daughter are too revolving to
be published, and if they are true
stamp the man as a brute not worthy
to be at large in the community

The Buffalo Voice says: las ri
diculous as it may sound, the Basin
people are talking of trying to move
the county seat of Johnson county
from Buffalo to some point in the Ba-
sin. We have been Informed that
delegations have been appointed VINO
are working to that end. IL is
claimed that quite a number of per
sons have settled in the Basin from
other states this summer and that not
very many more are required IN order
to get sufficient number Of votes 10
bring about the result. The Basin is
deserving of a county seat of its own,
brit in view of the fact that expensive
county buildings have already been
built in Buffalo, moving the seat and
retaining all the country within the
present limits OF the county would in
volve another great debt, which the
already overwhelmed people could
never throw off"

The French 'sNouyelle Revue gives
an account of Tolstoi's family life.
The article states that at thirty-four
he married his wife, then eighteen.
The mode of the wooing and proposal
was word for word that of Levine and
Kitty in anna Karenine," in which
it will be remembered the lovers only
pronounced the first letters of the
words they wished to say to one an
other. With his married life Tolstoi
began War and Peace which took
him eight years to write, and during
this period the countess, besides CIV
ing birth to four children. copied her
husbands manuscript three times, by
no means an easy task. as Tolstoi
writes in kind of shorthand invented
by himself. Madame Tolstoi also
made all the childrens' clothes until
they were ten. When he has a great
work in hand Tolstoi will work all
day, and even far into the night, and
decidedly objects to being disturbed
by any one.

A RICH GOLD FIND.
1t Causes Seine Excitement at Kavarra,
in Iron County


in Iron County
A rich gold nnd has just been re-
ported from the mountains immedi-
ately east Of Kanarra in Iron county.
A ledge of rock known for many
years past to contain brilliant but
useless quantity of pyrites of iron,
was prospected and dug" into the
other day by two inqusitive citizens
of that town. when to their surprise
the interior rock gave abundant signs
of gold. Samples were thereupon
taken out and sent to three different
assayers, the returns from whom Just
received showed the gratifying result
per ton of $21, SIS and 1874 respectively.
OF course this was good enough for
almost anyone, especially as the ledge
from which the samples were taken
was over twenty feet in width and
several feet in thickness, and. as a
consequence, the little town is at pres
ent undergoing a little gold excite
nent with good prospects for a per-
manent boorn.-Beaver Utonion.

A Meaning Freak.

a monster three-legged steer was
recently discovered on the head waters
of the Cheyenne river, in Wyoming. It
is seven years old and weighs close on
1000 pounds, and has horns that will
measure six feet from tip to tip. The
hind legs are perfect, but in front
there is one leg, located in the centre
of the body on the part of the body be-
tween where the front limbs are on an
ordinary steer and is about the size of
two ordinary legs. The steer is wild,
and when discovered took the lead of a
small herd of mavericks and skipped
out for a hiding place.
