Judge E. A. Wilson, of Provo. is
lying very sick in Salt Lake city. At
last accounts. it was reported that he
was in a critical condition. Much
sympathy is expressed here, and his
many friends hope for his speedy re-
covery.
The senatorial fight will be watched
here with keen interest. Politicians
in and around Provo think that George
@. Cannon will be made senator if he
desires it. Arthur Brown has a host
of friends here and there are a great
many who would like to see him in
the United States Senate. Very little
is heard here about Frank j.; most
people seem to think that his star has
set.
Justice Saxey will ask the city coun-
ell at its first meeting to establish a
place where ne can hold court. Here
tofore there has been no given place
and the police court has been held first
in one place then in another.

Mrs. H. D. A Henning, 1000 Hollins
street. Baltimore. Nd. says: My
daughter Louisa suffered from catarrh
of the nose and throat for FIVE years
or more. Every morning her nose was
completely stopped up with mucous and
she suffered from pain and pressure
across her forehead. sneezing and rails
ing mucus from the throat, difficulty
in breathing and heaviness across the
chest. 1 tried several physicians and
different kinds of treatment, but she
found no benefit. Finally I began
treating her with Munyon's Catarrh
Remedies and in a short time she was
completely cured and has never had
symptom since"
Are you willing to spend 50 cents for
a cure that positively cures catarrh by
removing the cause of the disease? If
so ask your druggist for a 20 cent bot
tie of MUNYON'S Catarrh Cure and
% cent bottle of Catarrh tablets. The
Catarrh Cure will eradicate the dis
ease from the system and the tablets
will cleanse and heal the afflicted
parts and restore them to a natural
and healthfuI condition.
Munyon's Remedies contain positive
cures for all diseases. At all drug

PARCELS POST CONVENTION.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Sir Julian
Pauncefote. the British ambassador.
and Lord Cough, first secretary of the
legation, had a conference with Post
master General Wilson today at which
the establishment of q parcels post
convention between the United States
and Great Britain was urged.
The ambassador was assured by Mr..
Wilson that the matter would be con-
side!ed as soon as possible. Mr.. Wilson
explained that the United States has no
parcei5 post convention with any Eu-
ropean country, though having such
conventions with a number of British
colonies. the Hawaiian and Leeward
Islands and other small countries. The
objection urged by the postal authori-
ties is that the introduction of the ar
rangement would be disadvantage
to this country, as the mails are liable
to transportation over much more ter
ritory than in England and it would
create more work ii the service by
allowing a maximum of eleven pounds
to a package in the mails instead of
four as at present.

CHICAGO. Jan. 6.-Fire caused the
loss Of two lives, the injury of one man
and the destruction of two residences
with their contents at Wheaton last
night During the progress of the
flames the greatest alarm was felt by
the residents that the town might be
consumed as there was a strong wind
blowing. Every one able to assist
turned out and aided the single hook
and ladder company, the only fire
organization to fight the fire. 1t was
due to the brave resistance to the en-
croachment of the flames on adjoining
houses that the members of the volun-
teer fire department now mourn the
death of two of their number In bat
ting the fire these men were caught
under falling chimney of one of the
dwellings and were crushed. The dead
are:

no contest, but as the governor and
other state officers did not assume
their offices under the presidents pro-
clamation until today, their signatures
to Aliens credentials. of course. had
not been signed.
Crisp (Dem.), of Georgia. did not
question the facts as stated, but

THE coUnr HOUSE INSURANCE.

The first suits filed in the court OF the
Second district for the state of Utah
We're filed yesterday about noon by
County Attorney Weber at the instance
of the county court. They were begun
for the purpose of collecting the insur-
ance due on the loss sustained by the
court house fire last October. The suits
are based each ON the same cause of
action. one against the Liverpool. Lon
don and Globe and the other against
the Commercial Assurance company.
Both are London companies. 1t APP
pears from the complaints that policies
were held by the county court in each
of the companies. each policy being
for $500 on house, furniture, etc.
There were also three other policies in
as many companies, viz: The Connecti-
cut, the Orient and the Sun of London.
1t had been decided to cancel these pol
icies and it is alleged that the two de-
PENDANT companies knew of this lnten-
ton and sanctioned it. However. the
policies had not yet been surrendered
when the fire took place. and on this
pretext the defendant companies
claimed that the other three companies
should bear their pro rata of the loss.
The policies of these three compa-
nfes contained a clause providing that
the poIicy could be Cancelled at any
time on request of the insured. Such
a request had been made by the county
court, though owing to a dispute over
the amount of premium due the poll
cies had not yet BEEN surrendered. 1t
looks as though the county can hardly
lose in the end, but the question is
whether two companies or five must
bear the loss.
