MT. PLEASANT NOTES.
Pioneer Lady Seriously III = Sheep
Men Happy.

Mt. Pleasant, Dec. 14.-Rev. ]. NJ.
Hansen of Ephraim visited friends in
this city Monday and Tuesday. He
has now charge of the church and con-
gregation Of the Methodist mission at
EDhraim.
Mrs. Anna Clemensen, one of the
pioneers of Sanpete. is quite indisposed.
She has been visiting her daughter
Mrs. Kelsey of Salt Lake City and
would have remained there all winter
but for this very distressing illness.
John H. Erickson, the obliging Demo-
cratic postmaster, feels his heart beat
an extra lick or two when he reads
the daily record of Glen >Miller's ak;
and feels like praying as did the good
man in Biblical times: Remove thy
stroke far from me-.
Rev. H. H. McCreery is spending
most OF his time in Salt Lake City on
business connected with the Kinsman.
He is at home over Sundays, always.
A fine snow has covered the desert,
and the sheep men are in correspond
ingly fine humor. So is the city, for
wool growing is one of our chief indus
tries.

Sven Olsen Struck By the Cache
Valley Express.
WAS CROSSING THE TRACK
HIS THREE HORSES WERE ALSO
KILLED.
Accident Occurred at Huntsville
Crossing, Five Miles North of
Ogden-Inquest Will Be Held To-
day-Olsen's Companion Said
They Did Not Hear the Train.
(snecial to The Herald)

Ogden, Utah, Dec. 14.-Swen August
Olsen of Brigham was struck by the
south-bound Cache Valley express at
stantly killed. His three horses were
likewise killed and his freight wagon
demolished.
Olsen, together with j. W. Sheffield,
was hauling freight to Brigham, and
left this afternoon with loads from +.
j. Kiesel's place. They reached the
Harrisville crossing, which is about tive
miles north of here, a little before b.
Olsen was in the lead driving three
horses abreast, his wagon being large
covered one.
At that place the road crosses the
railway twice within a few hundred
yards. Sheffield says they had crossed
the first crossing. and were about to
cross back to the east side. He had
heard nothing Of the train, and did
not know of it's approach until it struck
his partners outfit. He heard no
whistle :.or alarm of any kind.
After the train passed he searched
for some time before he found Olsen.
He was quite dead, and lying close to
the east side of the track, about three
rods south OF the crossing. The horses
We're killed close to the crossing, and
their bodies flung to the west side or
the track. One of them was not killed
outright. The freight was strewn all
along the track for several rods.
The train ran on perhaps half a mile,
stopped, and then ran back. 1t brought
Olsen's body and Sheffield on to this
city A message was sent to Horsley
& Son, at Brigham, for whom Olsen
worked, asking them to notify Mrs. OIL
sen. The body was taken in charge
by Larkin.
There is clean cut hole about three
inches long in the left side of the skull.
The left arm was broken in two places.
Death must have been Immediate The
theory is that the engine struck the
horses and the front part of the wagon,
! throwing Olsen on to the pilot, which
would account for his being carried so
far from the scene. The wheels never
| touched him.
Justice Ternes impaneled a jury,
composed of E. T. Morton, S. A. Cop
pinger and James Ferrin, who viewed
the remains and will hold an inquest
today. Conductor Brown was in charge
of the train, which went on to Salt
Lake about 20 minutes late.

BOON TO BRIGHAM.
Public Reading Room and Library
to Be Erected

Brigham, Dec. 14.-Rock is being
hauled for the new public reading room
and library, which will be built on the
city square, just north of the court
house and facing on Main street. This
work is being undertaken by the Off
GERS of the Young Mems and Young La
dies Improvement associations, and by
popular subscription. 1t is the inten-
ton to erect a small building at a cost
of about $500, which will be used until
the city shall build a hall and desig-
nate a room for that purpose. This is
much needed institution in this city
and should receive the encoura cement
and support of all.
There is a good attendance at the
Woman's Relief society conference to-
day. The young ladies meeting is to
be held tomorrow
The old Jail is to be remodeled, on the
inside at least. The sheriff's patient,
DR.. Darlington, will be kept at the
sheriff's office, or some other safe place,
while the repairs are being made, as
the noise of the work will be too shock
ing to his nerves, which are very much
unstrung since his last attempt to es-
cape. The old log cells will be torn out
and the ceiling lined with iron, much
needed Improvement.

Suit Involving Most of the Waters of
the Sewer.
JURISDICTION QUESTION
SUIT MUST BE BROUGHT WHERE
WATERS ARE DIVERTED.
Judge Higgins Decides an Important
Question Raised Under a Peculiar
Provision of the Constitution
Sewer County's Finances-A
Whitecap's Warming at Richfeld
Davis County Offender.
LFrom The Herald Correspondence

IFrom The Herald Correspondence
Fillmore, Utah, Dec. IA very
important question was argued
by wedgewood for the plaintiffs
and j. NJ. Zane for the defendants and
decided by Judge Higgins today in q
big suit pending here, entitled the Des-
eret Irrigation company and the Lem
ington Irrigation company VS.. Samuel
Mcintyre, William II. Mcintyre, the
Wellington Irrigation company, the
Dover Irrigation company. the Fayette
Irrigation company, Edward Robbins,
Henry A. Kearnes and the Deseret d
Salt Lake Agricultural & Manufactur-
ing company.
This is a case involving pretty much
all the waters of the Sewer river from
Sanpete county down to its sinks in
Willard county The action was
brought to determine the rights Of the
several water owners The attorneys
for defendants. the Fayette Irrigation
company, the Robbins Dam d Canal
company and Albert Robbins, moved
the court to dismiss action against
their clients for the reason that the
complaint shows that any interference
by their clients with the water Of the
river took place in Sanpete county,
and that the court sitting in Millard
county has no jurisdiction in the mat
ter, owing to that provision in the
constitution which provides that ali
criminal and civil business arising in
any county shall be tried in the coun-
ty where such business arises.
It was contended by Mr.. Zane that
the wrong by interference with the
waters of a running stream must be
taken as having been done at the point
and in the county where the injured
party receives his water from the nat
ural channel, and Notwithstanding the
water may have been diverted from
the natural channel in another county
the county in which the party injured
received his water being the place
where the cause of action arose. The
court, after hearing the arguments
decided that interference with the
right to the use of water in a running
stream was a trespaSs, and the cause
of action arose in the county where
the trespass took place. Secondly, the
wrong complained Of having taker
place in Sanpete county, and the &C.
ton having been brought in Millart
county, this court is without jurisdic
ton, and hence dismissed the case a:
to the parties moving a dismissal
By consent of all parties nothing fur
Their is to be done in the case unit
the question is determined in the su
preme court on an appeal from tn,
order disnissing the action. Steps fo
an immediate appeal will be taken OF

constitution seems to be very uncer

meeting last evening at the county
court house for the purpose of cohsid-
ering and devising some means of de-
stroying the English sparrows, and

is utilized for the purpose and goes

RHEUMATISM
NEWS OF THE WEST.

Carson News: 1t now looks as
though it should be an easy matter to
bring those 25 lynchers to justice up in
Carson valley.
There are clues enough already to
look like a sure thing to a man of
Sherlock Holmes tabled acuteness
The sledge found beside Uber's bed and
dyed with his blood had been newly
dressed, and there are not more than
dozen blacksmith shops in the whole
valley.
The man who wore the scarf found
at the scene of the lynching is said to
be a frequent visitor to Genoa, and in
fact is reported to have visited Uber in
Jail the day of Andersons funeral and
cursed the prisoner as the man who
shot his friend
He is supposed to be man who has
not been in this country long, and was
led into the escapade through ignorance
and with the idea that. as it seemed
to him, the whole community as in the
thing and it must be all right.

Kroti Brothers of Richfeld Ordered

Richfield, Dec. 13,-A miniature SEN
sation was created in Richfeld today
by the receipt of the following note by
Messrs. Max and Solomon Krotki:
IN. and S. Krotki: Your health will
be better if you leave here at once. In
other words, you will be found dead if
in this town by Christmas.
The Messrs. Krotki are Hebrews, who

a flourishing mercantile business. Their
whitecap missive came to them
through the mail today. 1t was indited
by pencil in printed capitals, to dis
guise handwriting.
The Krotkis are not scared They
believe the message was sent either by
some wag aspiring to be a practical
joker, or, more probably, by an enemy
hoping to run them out of town, but
lacking the nerve to put his threat into
practice. Most of their business asso-
ciates concur in one of the two opin-
ions

CHEAP AS BUTTERMILK.
Old Kentucky Whisky Demoralized
Bv Red Eve Stuff.

Louisville, KY, Dec. 1.-THE at
tempt of the Kentucky Distillers' as
ISOLATION to secure an agreement to re-
strict the product from 15,000,000 to
10,0OO,O00 gallons in 1898 is failure.
The secretary has received less than
a dozen answers to the invitation to
sign the contract, and is very blue, as
the stock now on hand is sufficient for
four years consumption, and much is
selling below the cost of production.
Some of the best brands, distilled in
1892 and 1898, are selling at from %
to 80 cents a gallon, in addition to the
tax, and the distillers are now trying
to produce an article at Is cents a gal
Ion, which further demoralizes the
trade Distilleries with capacity OF
$4,000 gallons will be in operation in
this city on Jan. 1, and others are pre-
pairing to start up all over the state
Should the production run as high as
Is, 900, 600 or 9O,000,000 gallons, it will add
Immensely to the embarrassment of the
