securing the brass around the pinnacle.
Mr.. Patton was a downeaster, tall, an
gular and rawboned. The color of his skin
from long years of contact on the
ocean with hail, snow, squalls, fogs and
sunny weather resembled the yellow shoes
now worn by dudes. A severe cut which
he once received below the right eve left
an ugly scar and a broken nose disfgured
what was once very handsome face. The
knuckles of his right hand were all broken

Thinking a few news items from
here might be acceptable we will try
our hand.
Grantsville is having boom just
now, our town being full of stran-
gers, there being large crew of
men renewing the Western Union
telegraph line, also number on
the Standard OIL company's pipe
line.
One of the telegraph men had a
very narrow escape from death the
other day. One of the old poles
fell while the young man was on
the top. throwing him about forty
feet. DIR. Lichty, however, pro-
nounces him on fair way to re.
covery.
Mr.. Geo. Collins, the we'll -known
sawyer, has removed his family to
this place and hereafter will be
found on Wagner & Folks mill as
head sawyer.
Among the several names already
announced for the sheriffalty nomi-
nation, we hear that of Mr.. George
Walters, of No. l, very favorably
mentioned. We know him to be a
man well fitted to successfully fill
that important office.

plies for the destitute were In the b.

We're In the freight depot, besides what
was then In store in other warehouses
We proceeded to a building belonging
TO Buckstan Bros. There we found
from statements made by the party in
charge Of said building, sixty carloads
OF supplies, which the men In charge
said had been there from one to two
weeks. Those supplies We're composed
OF nour wheat, corn, oats, CORR meal,
beans, potatoes, kraut and large
amount OF groceries and clothing The
potatoes, about one carload, We're frozen
hard The kraut was in barrels, some
OF which were bursted and leaking
we were informed that one carload had
been SHIPPED out of this warehouse on
January 30.
We then visited the warehouse owned
by Kendall q Smith. There we found
two carloads OF supplies. This lot OF
supplies slowed plainly that the proper

big strike Of last summer and was bit
ter at that time because the other
brotherhood refused to join In the
strike. has not been softened by the
hand Of time. Instead, the feeling be-
tween the rival bodies has apparently
become more intense. Today the sub
jeut was discussed at length by 200 or
more leaders Of the order of Railway
Conductors, and an almost unanimous
expression was found in the adoption
OF a resolution recommending TO the
coming general convention OF the grand
division that the line be drawn in the
order to exclude all members who
refuse to renounce allegiance TO the
American Railway Union.
There are many members OF the
order Of Railway Conductors who are
also members OF the a. Il. U. me
leaders In today's meeting Insisted
that no man could serve two masters,
that no conductor could hold a mem
bership in Two organizations whose
interests were lnllnledi uuu uetNISH
which there was a constant warfare
They said the ayowed object of the

employees of the country and the dis
