KAMAS, May 1.-THE weather still
continues stormy. About two inches
Of snow fell last night. 1t all went off
this morning, but it is now showing
again with fair prospect for it to con-
tinue all night. Formers are much
disheartened several not yet having
their grain in. while those who have
fear it will either rot or be killed by
frost. These storms are piling up i'm
mense amounts of snow In the noun
tains. which will be of great benefit to
the farmers in the lower valleys, but
will nearly if not quite ruin crops
here.
Richard B Goodworth, who has long
been suffering with bronchitis, died
yesterday Sunday morning. He
leaves wife and one child, besides
numerous friends, to mourn his loss.
The funeral will take place on We'd
nesday.
Some of our citizens have gone to
Provo City to obtain work on the rail-
road, as they deem that much safer
than trying to farm, considering the
severe weather and likelihood of
early frosts.
Some OF our citizens went to Coal
vile to attend the quarterly confer
ence, which commenced on Saturday
last. DEMOCRAT.

AT THE OoURr HOUSE.

One of the gayest social events that
ever frightened UP a week of gloomy
weather took place last night at the
court house, the occasion being the
reception given by the ladies of the
Public Library association. 1t was a
fitting dedication for the new court
house. Although not yet finished, it
was well adapted for the purpose.
There was dance music and plenty
of dancers; refreshments were served
in the various rooms by charming
young ladies.
The selectmen and other county Off
Gals were present, and the freedom of
the building was given to all the guests.
One of the most remarkable things
to be seen was the new clock which L..
H. Wallace courteously showed to Wis
itors. 1t is a delicate piece of mechan-
ism and was made in Connecticut and
put up by the Wallace-Schramm COM
pany. One set of machinery regulates
the clocks not only for the dial faces in
the tower but for those in various 9TH
er portions of the building. 1t being an
electrical clock it's machinery can be
made to operate as many clocks as de-
sired by simply increasing the battery
power.
A large crowd was present and the
affair was certainly a great social sue
cess. Too much credit cannot be given
the ladies for their work.

New York, May 12.-Only two stocks to-
day deserved mention on account Of &C
tivity-St. Paul and Sugar.
The speculation was fiitful, prices being
affected by influences not ordinarily bear
ing upon the market 1t can be added
that traders were entirely responsible for
the meagre total of business recorded. A
more chcarful sentiment was apparent in
the early operations, the bulls being en-
cOuraged by a moderate renewal of for
eign purchases. The buying was chiefly
for snort account, incidental to the open
ing of the fortnighly settlement upon the
London stock exchange. The more reas-
Suring advices in relation TO the latest

A STRANGE CASE.

That is quite a puzzling case-that
of the strange woman found some days
ago wandering about over toward
Plain City in a seemingly demented
manner. The sheriff endeavored to
have her kept at the Home for the
Friendless, but she refused to stay
there. To all questions about her
identity and plans she will give no
answer. Thus her very name is I'M
known. She undoubtedly came from
a long distance. Her clothing and
other evidences indicate that. One en-
gineer on the Rio Grande Western
says he is positive he passed the wo-
man several times ON his run. She
was walking toward Salt Lake.
