JUBILEE NOTES

Hon. W. H. King, Utah's Repre-
sentative in Congress, has been au-
thorized by the Utah Semi-Centen-
NAL Commission to invite the House
of Representatives to visit Utah
during the jubilee, He has predic-
ted that many members will accept
such an invitation.
The Construction Department of
the Utah Pioneer Jubilee has now
ready for the painters brush sixteen
of the most magnificent floats ever
made in the West. There will be
fifty floats constructed by the de-
partment, not including those the
twenty-seyen counties of the State
will order, and the cost will not be
less than $4,000. The parade will
be the most elaborate and beautiful
ever witnessed in this country.
Spencer Clawson, the chairman of
the Utah Semi-Centennial Commits
sion, is Utah born. This city is his
birthplace and in 1852 he saw the
light He is a most successful bus

A PRACTICAL MAN ON TRIB.

From the Enterprise, Virginia City;
No veterinarian on the Pacific
Coast has had longer experience, or
has any man had a more successful
practice with horses than DIR. Burns
of this city.
He makes the following statement;
VIRGINIA CITY, Jan. 81, 81.
A valuable mare driven by Sup
erintendent Lyman of the Con.
Virginia mine on the Comstock
Lode, had been in the stable unable
to work, from the kick of another
animal, received on the inside of
the right foreleg above the knee.
The skin had been broken
and the muscles and tendons
severely bruised. During a week s
time L had given the limb such
treatment, as from thirty years pro-
fessional experience, l thought ben
ehcial, but without avail The leg
was swollen to nearly twice its
natural size, and the swelling would
not yield to treatment. On Thurs
day evening, June 1S, 1896, L made
the first application of the iniment,
Irib, thoroughly rubbing in half a
six ounce bottle over the whole leg.
| applied it regularly twice day for
the next three days. On the fourth
day the mare went to work COM
pletely cured-the most surprising
and satisfactory cure coming under
my observation during a lifetime
devoted to the treatment of horses.
During the past eight months
have used your liniment regularly
in my practice. Trib fulflls all its
promises.
An especially valuable feature of
Trib is that while it has all the pen
etrating strength of the most power
full liniments it does not blister.
For love of the horse and the fell
lowship of horsemen, l offer this
testimony. | know that trib will
benefit both. NJ. BURNS, V. S.

CAVE IN THE DELAMAR MINE.

On Wednesday morning the De-
Lamar company had a cave in one
of their big slopes. The stope was
of great width, about 100 feet, tim
bered in the most substantial man
ner with 12-inch timbers, square set.
For some time past Superintendent
T. II. Oman has been doubling up
on these sets, with solid bulkheads
in many places, filled in with waste
to within eight or ten feet of the
back of the stope.
Notwithstanding all this the
ground caved and the cause was the
soft porphry on the foot walls of the
ore body, into which water from the
snow and rains found its way, max
ing it soft and mushy, causing the
timbers to slide over.
Supt OMAN and forman Rey-
nolds were in the ground a short
time before the cave occurred. The
ground was working so badly then
NAV VA viz AhOh hCAC OUT
and consequently no one was hurt.
Two hours after the cave Mr.. Ok
nam had matters so arranged that the
men were at work in other parts of
mine and no stoppage of the mill
occurred. The cave is not thought
to be serious one as things are so
arranged that the Company can get
out the ore without much loss.
Some of the tunnels above No 5
are closed from the cave. No. 10
is open however and access to several
of the upper levels is obtained from
there.
The cave occurred between four
and five o'clock in the morning. The
Waterman was just closing the door
of tunnel No. 5 when the concus-
sion of air from the falling ground
forced open the door and threw him
to the edge of the dump, fortunately
without injury.

DISTRICT COURT.

Bro. Set for trial on Wednesday,
June I'd, by the court without
jury.
L. +. Edwards VS.. j. f. Wilson.
Trial set for Friday, June 4th, with
out jury.
On account of this being the
season at which all are most busily
occupied, and the fact that grand
jury was called at the January sit
ting, Judge Talbot decided not to
call grand jury at the present time.
The only matter for presentation
would be a case certified up from
DeLamar last week, involving the
larceny of three calves in Pahrana-
gat, in which the defendants are out
on bail
In setting the calendar of civil
cases, several calls were made for a
jury, but on discussion these de-
mands were waived, and all the
cases will be determined before the
court sitting without jury. This
will be good news to those who have
been living in fear for two weeks of
a possible trip to the county seat for
the public good but at private OK
pense.
Nothing of interest is looked for
in court for the remainder of the
week. All of next week will be oc-
cupied in the trial of cases.

can show a record equal to the jim

Memorial Day Observance

Memorial day will be observed
here this year. The 1. o. o. F.
Lodge, No. %, will assemble at the
hall in full regalia and march to the
grave yard followed by the school
children and others with flags and
flowers, where services will be held
and the graves decorated. Under
the guidance of Miss Louise Evans
the children are being taught to
sing several appropriate airs. The
day occurring on Sunday of the
week this year facilitates its open
observance. The late rains insure
a harvest of wild flowers, and the
children will go out in force to
gather them on Saturday for decor
atoms.

This morning about 7:30 O'Clock,
Just after the men had gone to work
in the Pacific tunnel, a large rock
fell from the roof striking F. Holcen-
dorf on the back and knocking him
down. He was stopping over in the
act of shoveling when the boulder
fell, striking him in a CHANGING way
which saved him from a serious

hundred pounds, filing half car.
he was taken to his cabin where he
at present is resting as easily as
can be expected.
