OGDEN. Oct 15.-Search parties
were out in great numbers yesterday
locking for the mysterious and daring
highwaymen. Most of the parties have
worked of a long distance from Og-
den but the place in the neighborhood
of the robbery is still closely guarded.
Some hold to the belief that the man
has remained concealed near Uintah
or is in Ogden awaiting chances to
escape and there are those who believe
the man came on to Ogden amongst
the passengers of the train he held up.
Detective Pender and Captain Silvey
were not heard from all day yesterday
IL is known that they worked down
the canyon from Morgan to Mountain
Green and thence took of north across
the divide by the same route as the
yellow Fellow" packet traversed.
Thence they went up into Huntsville.
They were follow ing two horsemen said
to be headed for McBride's ranch. Il
will be remembered that they took up
the trail OF the horsemen at Morgan
who went through with two extra
horses. favorite theory from the
first has been that the rObber expected
eonfederates and that they were 10 be
in waiting for him near Devils Gate
bridge, where the robbery was to be
lieved to be the disappointed confed-
crates of the roOber. who struck out
when the train went by their rendez-
vous without being stopped by their
comrade because he had lost his beal-
ings. Sheriff Wright and Deputy Sui
livan were also out in the wilds all
day YESTERDAY.
Regarding the amount of the haul
made by the robber nothing can be
said with any accuracy. Even the
postoffice officials do not know how
many packages and letters were taken
ard they would not tell if they did.
Postoifice Superintendent Flint is
mere and yesterday visited Uintah. He
has nothing to say except that az
thorough investigation will be made
and the robber or robbers apprehended
if it takes a dozen years.
The man was evidently familiar with
mail sacks as he cut each of them in
just the place where he would not
have to slit through two thieknesses Of
canvas.
Later advices state that Silvey and
Fender abandoned the chase after the
horsemen and went back about mid
night of Wednesday TO near the region

Especial to The HeraldA

OGDEN, Utah, Oct. ia big political
sensation was sprung here this evening,
when a protest was filed that will, in all
probability, keep the names of the indie

to the petition filed with the. clerk, July
y, 1886. by NJ. A. Breeder and 1O4 others,
which certities to the nomination of the

If successful this petition will compel
the Republicans to abandon their plan
of having each of their candidates
names on twice, or, at least, of having
them on under both eagle and beehive
The grounds specified in the petition are
six.

to practice, with the result that the wo-
men were victorious by vote Of more
than ten to one. Consequently they will
be accorded the same privileges as their
male colleagues. The question was de-

HER FIRST PATIENT.
A Beautiful incident In the Childhood OF
Florence Nightingale.

fiOfenCo Nightingale.
There is a beautiful incident related
Of Florence Nightingale, when she was
child. 1t shows that God had already
planted within her the germ which was
to develop SO beautifully i'll after days.
Her first wounded patient was Scotch
shepherd dog. Some boys had hurt and
apparently broken its leg by throwing
stones, and it had been decided to hang
it to put it out of its misery.
The little girl went fearlessly up to
where he lay, saying, in soft, caressing
tone, Poor Cap. poor Cap" 1t was
enough. He looked up with his speak
ing brown eyes, now bloodshot and full
of pain, into her face, and did not re-
sent it when, kneeling down beside
him, she stroked with her little I'M
gloved hand the large, intelligent head.
To the vicar, he was rather less
amenable, but by dint of coaxing he at
last allowed him to touch and examine
the wounded leg, Florence persuasively
telling him that it was "all right" In
deed. she was on the floor beside him,
with his head on her lap, keeping up a
continuous murmur, much as a mother
does over sick child. "Well," said the
vicar, rising from his examination, cas-
far rs I can tell, there are no bones bro
ken; the leg is badly bruised. 1t ought
to be fomented to take the inflammation
and swelling down." ''How do you
foment:" asked Florence. "With hot
cloths dipped in boiling water" an
swered the vicar. "Then that's quite
easy. I'll stay and do it. Now, Jimmy,
get sticks and make the kettle boil"
There was no hesitation in the child s
manner. She was told what ought to be
done, and she set about doing it as a
simple matter Of course. "But they will
be expecting you at home" said the
vicar. "Not if you tell them I'm here, ="
answered Florence, land my sister and
one of the maids can come and take me
home in time for tea, and," she hesitat-
ed, "they had better bring some old fan
mel and cloths; there does not seem to
be much here. But you will wait and
show me how to foment, won't you?'
"Well, yes" said the vicar, carried
away by the quick energy of the little
girl. And soon the fire was lit and the
water boiling. An old smocll frock Of
the shepherds had been discovered in a
corner, which Florence had deliberately
torn in pieces, and to the vicar S remark,
"What will Roger say?" she answered,
"We'll get him another" And SO Flor
ence Nightingale made her first COM
press and spent all that bright spring
day in nursing her first patient-the
shepherds dog.-Everywhere.

ton of the officers OF the law to him.

Harrison went before Justice Bio, K
