Fred Veo, a rancher, while crossing
Mission creek about seven miles east
from Livingston, Sunday afternoon,
discovered a man kneeling on the bank
OF the river in the act of cutting his
throat, and before he could reach him
he had severed the windpipe and two
or three arteries in his efforts to take
his life. The man had first used a
knife and then razor. with which he
was finishing the job. The injured
man was taken to the county poor
farm, where he was given the necessary
surgical attention. He is very severely
injured and Il is believed ne cannot
recover. Ee was undoubtedly insane.
A few hours before he had been seen
wandering about on a ranch in that
locality. he had nothing on his person
by which he could be identified. He
was neatly dressed and about 40 years
of age.

Four of a Kind.

Monday was day of mighty &C
tivity in the history of the Tribune's
Ogden department. Four special cor
respondents, including a sketch artist
and a special sleuth from Salt Lake,
moved in their mysterious ways. They
trod lightly on the balls Of their sew
eral feet, shook their heads. talked in
whispers, looked sage, said Hist" and
made mysterious signs one unto the
other until the small hours of yesterday
morning began to grow large. Ordi-
nary news like the Inauguration of
new manufacturing plants, the capture
of thieves, city council meetings and
the like were either overlooked or
slurred over. The sleuths were out to
unearth a mighty sensation. The SEN
sation appeared in the form Of a pad
ded special which contained not
scintilIa of fresh information except
that a party of prominent Ogden men
had been at the Hot Springs the night
that William Allison was injured. 1t
is surmised by some that, failing to
find their sensation ready made, an
other day was required TO have it cut
and fitted.
