thought something heavy had struck
their house. 1t is now believed that it
was an earthquake shock. It was strong
enough to jar the buildings and sounded
not unlike heavy explosion at great
distance followed by rumbling noise.
No damage was done as far as heard

commissioners are preparing to sue the
ex- treasurer for interest on money while
lying idle in the bank waiting for war

his bondsmen for this large amount, to

was lost. What's the natter Will
the commissioners allow the people to
lose this money! 1t seems to make
some difference to some men which side
of fence some one else is on. -Rexburg
