Burriston All Right.

About three weeks ago . oattlemsn,
Burriston Of Nephi, Utah. among other
purchases made about that time, bought
. bunch Of cattle of Mrs. Ellen Corners
who lives at the Summit, about 30 miles
east Of Ely, and gave in payment q check
for something over $500, which was &C.
cepted by Mrs. Couners. The check was
promptly forwarded to the bank, but
was returned in q few days. no funds be-
ing at that time in bank to meet il. In
dications seemed to suggest an attempt
on the part Of Burriston to defraud the
old lady out OF the amount named in the
check. This, however, seems to have
been entirely without foundation. Later
developments show that Burriston, be-
fore leaving Nephi. had made arrange
ments with the bank officials to cover
such an emergency as an overdrawn
check. But when the Corners check was
presented the officials with whom the
agreement to allow Burriston to over.
draw his account wss made. were absent
from the bank, and the clerk knowing
nothing Of the agreement, returned the
check unhonored. The difficulty has
since been satisfactorily arranged and

Supt. Abbott Of the K. & p. r. r.
has perfected arrangements which may
make Q complete change in the fuel ma.
terial used in this neighborhood. He
has for some time past been working
with other railroads to secure better
freight rates on coal from the mines TO
Eureka. and has finally succeeded in
getting the rate down to s. IS per ton
from Castle Gate. Pleasant Valley Coal
Company. and the same rate from Rock
Springs, Union Pacific Coal Company.
The cost Of the coal is but 81 so per
ton, 90 that each kind will cost only
IS Is per ton landed in the E. & p.
yards ct Eureka. This 10 reduction Of
80 30 per ton on the present rate. The
matter Of fuel here has always been one
OF considerable expense, cedar and ma.
hogsny being most generally used, and
BY the time it is landed, chopped and
piled ready for actual use, the final cost
is often rather steep. Coal has been but
little used, and now that the freight rate
has been brought so low an experiment
could be chesply made % TO it's econom-
ical advantages over wood, both for
home heating and kitchen use, and for
use at hosting works around the mines.
The E. & P. is now taking orders for
carload lots Of fifteen tons and over,
guaranteeing that the price will not be
over IS 25 per ton.
