AN OLD JAIL BIRD.
Springville Robber Served Term In
the Pen.

Provo, Jan. 4.-When ''Blacky'' Lewis
took the stand as witness in his own
behalf it developed that he had served
about two years in the state peniten-
tiary for robbing a car in Salt Lake
City in a similar way TO that charged
against him in the present case. He
also spent some time in the Salt Lake
county jail for stealing. In the evil
dence it turned out that besides steal
ing tomales and peanuts from the Rio
Grande Western car at Springville,
.Blacky' had stolen box of tobacco,
a saddle, an overcoat and other small
articles. In the DISCRIMINATION the
defendant hung his head and very re-
luctantly answered questions, which
revealed a very bad record of crime.
His photograph was in the hands of the
prosecuting attorney, and when shown
to the prisoner he said, yes, that's me.
and 1 guess you have got my record
along with it," A verdict of guilt
was found by the jury, and sentence
will be passed Thursday morning at 10
O'Clock

Milford. Jan. 4.-The winter of 1888
will long be remembered as the severest
for many years in this section of the
country. The snow in the valleys has
been unusually heavy, and the weather
very cold The mercury has ranged in
the region of 10 below zero for weeks
at night, and often it went down to 10
and on two days reached 20 below. This
is the worst for many years.
A number of bands of sheep are per-
fishing for want of feed, and some of
Milfords mOnied men are sending
teams out to search for herds, and are
hauling in all they can buy. In nearly
every instance the price paid is not
more than one-fourth of the value of
a sheep, where there is feed. Men in the
valley who have a few tons of lucern
and straw will reap the fruits of the
sheepmen's necessities.
Inasmuch as this suffering has come
upon the herds so early this winter, it
is a matter of grave concern as to how
it viii be possible to get the sheep
through another storm Of this kind,
should it come in the month of Feb
ruary or March, as is usually the case
where the winters are milder in the
first part The only home for a few

come early, and that q repetition of
this very severe weather viii not be
had.
One popularity noticed is the great
difference between the weather here in
the valley and that upon the higher
lands and mountains, the latter section
being warm and mild, compared with
the low lands. Not for eight years
have the valleys had SO much snow.
The snow in some of the mountains
which furnish the water for farms in
this valley is not nearly so heavy as is
usual but from the fact that the farm
lands are thoroughly soaked by mois-
ture which has fallen, the prospects are
ennd for 2 crOn the nreSpnt season.

faced, bright looking young man, came

ing the Oregon Short Line depot in

titled to having arrested Shepard and
found the boots and shoes in his pos
session. Defendant had disposed of
some of the goods by peddling them in

was in the vicinity of the place where

quest of the prosecuting attorney.

was arrested on the same charge, was
given his freedom by reason of the
evidence being somewhat meager.

CONSOLATION APPOINTMENT.
Defeated Candidate For Marshal Be
comes a Policeman.


Park City, Jan. 4-Ex- Marshal Henry
Hughes invested his successor, Sanford
Hyde, with the badge of chief yester-
day afternoon, and with it the gold
braid and instruments of defense that
make a policeman very formidable
person. By evening the entire old force
had been succeeded by the new one
Mayor ]. H. Deming having approved
of the bonds furnished by the two new
policemen, Thomas L. Waldin and
Isaac Mckay. The amount of each
bond is $500. For Waldin the sureties
are T. r. Davis and Timothy Dris-
coll, while for Mckay are Henry WEIGH
and Barney Riley. 1t will be remem-
bered that Policeman Mckay was the
Republican candidate for city marshal
at the last city election and was the
only one on the Republican ticket who
failed of election, he being defeated
by Sanford Hyde, Democrat. The Re-
publican mayor and council have thus
ameliorated somewhat McKay's defeat
by appointing him on the police force.
J. T. Camp, the Utah Patriot man,
says that his failure to issue holiday

of discontinuance, as reports have
made it, but that the paper will be is
