/. @. @. Whitmore has received in
telilgence OF the death Of j. b. Single
ton, q former resident Of Eureka.
which occurred on the 18th inst. at Los
Angeles, Cal. This announcement
will bring regret to q large number Of

| high calibre and undoubted courage. He
was later on removed to the Eureka
and Phoebe route in this State, and
subsequently served in q similar posi-.
ton between Eureka and Palisade. He
was next engaged in q general draying
business and secured the truck deliv-
cry Of freight, which was then
very lucrative. He ran for Sheriff Of

intendent of schools to all teachers
and educational workers in the coun-
ty, to ascertain what support sum-
mer school would obtain if established
here. The response was so gratifying
that a committee was appointed TO ag-
itate the matter and make definite ar
rangements for the school.
The efforts of those in charge were
rewarded last Monday, when eighty
teachers and students from all parts
of the county gathered at Richfield
and enrolled themselves as members
Of the school.
The faculty employed for this sea-
son is certainly a creditable one, con-
sisting of the following ten profession

Kavsville. June Memorial day
was never before so generally OBJ
served by the citizens of Kaysville
and surrounding country as it was last
Thursday. With practical unanimity
the people turned out and strewed
flowers on the graves Of their departed
4 friends. The grave yard was thronsed
with people during the greater part OIL
the day, and beautiful flowers be
decked almost every mound Wlthln us
confines.
sive ceremonies in the morning, COM
! mencing at $50. AT that hour pro-
cession formed at the meeting house,
in which the people from the settle
ments north of Pennington joined.
The Kaysville Brass band was at the
head followed by the civil war Veter-
ans, the blues and grayS. Following
them came the Sunday schools of Lay
ton and West Layton, West Kaysville
and Kaysville wards, in the order
given, accompanied by nearly the en-
tire population of their respective
wards, and the line of vehicles forming
the procession was mile in length.
Such an imposing sight has never been
witnessed here on like occasion, in
fact it is doubtful if ever before so
many people have congregated on any
holiday.
At the cemetery the school child
rem and citizens formed hollow
square. and the following programme
was rendered:
Selection, Ever Faithful ........
Brass Band
Chorus, America" . Sunday Schools
Prayer. Chaplain ]. H. Linford
Song, 1--WE Ask Thy Blessings" 49,.
..............A Male Quartette Club
Grafton B. Cook, of Layton
I'VE Shall Meet Beyond the River
...............Ka ysville Glee Club
Selection, Nearer. My God, to
Thee" ........ .................Ba Band
After the programme the people
decorated the graves of their friends,
and the children laid flowers on all
the strangers graves, SO that none
should be missed
The Blues and Grays conducted their
own solemn ceremonies and placed a
flag and wreauhs upon the graves of
their departed comrades.
The whole affair was highly inter
esting and profoundly impressive. well
arranged and successfully conducted.
The weather was all that could be
desired for such an occasion.

CROP PROSPECTS,

The copious rains that have been
falling almost necessarily since yes
terday noon have gladdened the hearts
of the agriculturists in this section.
This storm has come just in time to
insure a good harvest from the many
thousands of acres of unirrigated
wheat farms on the range between
here and Ogden, and its value to
farmers is incalculable. It was re-
ported early this week that in some
places the wheat crops were burning
for want of water, but this rain is be-
ieved to have been sufficient to mature
the grain even if there is no more
downpour before harvest The pro-
ducts of these dry land farms form
one of the principal sources of Davis
county's wealth, and hence what affects
them affects the material interests of
all our citizens.
Lucern crops this year will be good.
The first crop will be ready for cutting
in another week and the storm will do
much toward producing an abundant
growth for later cutting.

by the hundreds; the brass band was
also present and discoursed appro-
pirate music. The graves were lavish
ly decorated with fern and flower.
If all the floral decora tons that grac-
ed the mounds in the Brigham ceme-
terry Thursday, were placed in hay
racks they would no doubt fill half
dozen. Many touching sights, of fond
hearts weeping for their departed
loved ones was seen on all sides. In
the afternoon an excellent programme
was rendered in the tabernacle. A
large number of people were in at
tend Ince.
The Willard people also celebrated

An appropriate programme was rend-
cred.
This week an important event took
place in the lives of Miss Laura
Peters and Alma IverSon, two highly
respected young people of this city.
It was the celebration of their nup-
tials, the marriage having taken place
in the Salt Lake temple. Their par
ents are among the oldest citizens of

young tramp named Kennedy as
saulting two aged people on their
ranch west of Corinne. This week
the fellow was sentenced to seven
years in the penitentiary for his
brutal work.
The Brigham people are now revel-
ing in all the luxury of quantities of

and cream and sugar. The berries
have been ripe in town over two
weeks; they are half a month earlier
this year than last.

ex-chief of the Brigham City fire de-
partment, has returned from a two
years mission to England.
Several mines that were discovered
last summer in the hills east of
Brigham are being quietly but in
dustriously worked. Some of the
boys think they are "onto'' something
rich and are staying with their holes
like terriers digging out a rat.
Farmers, in from all over the coun-
ty report the best prospects for crops
this year in their recollection. The
rains seem to come this sc9son at the
very time they nserrlQnarieI worst.

PHYSICAL CULTURE.

Some months ago Miss Bell Salmon
came to this city and opened a school
of Expression" up in the Fifth ward
institute. Now such a school is I'M
like the common, ordinary everyday
school and is intended to educate the
body more than the mind, although
the mind is by no means neglected,
and in the end is the principal bene-
ficiary.
Wen, the school prospered, and the
time has arrived for the closing ex-
ercises and they will fake place on
Wednesday evening next at the Grand
opera house, when all who have
desire to learn exactly what is taught
in a school of Expression" can not
only see the result but get some idea
of the method employed to attain the
result.
The ladies who will take part are
all beautiful and they are we'll known
so that the entertainment is an as
sured success now. All who
attend may depend upon it that they
will never regret having patronized
home talent, because that is what It
will be made up of in the main, and
every participant is a born artist.
