Local Briefs.

Harold Peery has prepared for admis-
sion to Virginia university by private
study and will leave. Wednesday, for
Virginia with his father, Hon. D. H.
Peery.
The 3-year-old daughter of Mrs. Da-
vid Cashmere fell from a buggy last
night and broke both bones of the left
arm Mrs. Cashmere is Denver lady
and is visiting in Ogden.
James Embling, while cutting wood
at his home, south of Ogden, yester-
day. cut a cash in his wrist, severing
two arteries. The arm was bandaged
and Embling brought to town. but
much blood was lost before DR.. Pow
ers' office was reached and the flow
stopped. Embling is about so years of
age, but no serious consequences ara
looked for.
About noon yesterday a son of Carl
Beus was seriously injured by getting
his arm caught in the knives OF a
moving machine, which he was driy-
ing, when he fell off. All the muscles
of the left arm were severed and the
bone was also injured. The physicians
fear amputation will be necessary. The
boy is u years old and lives in Birch
Creek precinct.
Trouble seems to be brewing in the
Ogden band. The matter began over
the contract for the music for the ex-
cursion of the secret orders TO Garfield
on Thursday. The band put in a bid
to go down for $3.50 per man. The or
ders had about decided not to take
band, when G.. W. Packard put in q
bid for So per man. He is not the lead
er of any organization, but the con-
tract was closed with him for II men.
He then engaged some members of the
Ogden band to play with him, claiming
that they did not understand their or
ganization was bidding. Four of them
refused to recede ard this created some
dissension at the practice last night
Leader Emmett rendered his resigna-
ton, which was not accepted, al
though he was quite persistent. Pack
ard says he got the contract because
the Ogden band had been heretofore
employed by one of the secret orders
and they had some difficulty, and this
order refused to employ the band
again.

MURDER OF SCHOFIELD.
Evidence Being Worked Up Against
the Prisoners.

the Prisoners.
San Jose, Cal, Aug. 9.-The three
prisoners arrested last evening for the
murder of George w. Schofield remain
in the county Jail. while the officers are
working on the case. No direct evidence
has been found, but the officers say
that they have strong circumstantial
case Mrs. Schofield takes her arrest
calmly and does not appear to worry
in the least over the fact that she is a
widow. On Saturday she stated posi-
lively that her husband expressed no
opinion after the affair Of Friday
night as TO who fired the shot. When
asked this morning, Did your husband
say anything on Friday night after the
Shooting which would indicate that he
had any suspicion?" she answered,
Yes, he said that 'Budd Mann did
that. I will get even with him.
Mann is her divorced husband. She
says she knows he did not Go the shoot
ing. as he is a much smaller man than
he whom she saw run away.
Saturday she said she suspected her
son-in-law, Clark Johnson. Mrs. Scho-
field was here Thursday with Johnson
and his wife. Johnson had not returned
this morning to San Jose, though the
officers believe he will show up all
right.
The entire case is shrouded in nys-
terry, and the belief is growing that ell
the shots were fired at the ranch house
at the same hour, and the story OF some
one prowli1g around the house all night
with curses and threats, occasionally
hurting stones against it is not given
much credence. Mrs. Schofeld is of
Spanish parentage and is a rather
handsome, well preserved woman about
30 wears old
