DAN wIcKIzERs DEATH.
His Two Partners Charged With Adj
ministering Drugs.

Provo City, Feb. 1S.-Yesterday Sher-
if Storrs went over to Mercur and last
evening held a long conversation by
telephone with County Attorney King.
1t was learned that some very import
ant evidence has been unearthed by the
sheriff. The county attorney went over
70 Mercur this morning to assist the
sheriff in his investigations.
Sheriff Storrs returned to Provo this
evening, having with him Hall and Sea-
man. the partners of Dan Wickizer. the
young man who died at lodging house
in Lehi in December last. They left
Lehi. stating that they were going to
Fairview to work some mining claims.
Before leaving they purchased a guam
titV of liquor. which they left in bed
with Wickizer, taking with them the
property of the sick man. WickiZer
died that night and an inquest was
held. 1t showed some suspicious cir
cumstances, but as there was no direct
testimony, 1t was found that he died
from the excessive use of liquor. After
he was buried Hall and Seaman return
ed to Lehi. One OF them was wearing
Wickizer's watch, and they were I'M
able to account for his property salts
ments. Sheriff StOrrs took the matter up
and his investigation led to the arrest.
The men are charged with administer
ing drugs for the purpose of commit
ting a felony, and at the preliminary
hearing tomorrow some strong testi-
mony will be given against them.

HUNTINGToN's SCARLET FEVER,
County Attorney Has Given No opin-
ion On the Subject.

Huntington, Utah, Feb. 13.-Editor
Herald notice in this mornings Her
aid, under the heading, 'Huatington's
Peril" that your Huntington CORE
spondent has made d mistake. He says
that il is reported that the county at
tOrney has given an opinion to the ef-
feet that it is the business and duty of
the town authorities TO care for all
cases within one mile of the iowa (al-
luding to the scarlet fever scarce, and
that the county authorities are acting
in harmony with this opinion. The
county attorney. 1 know, has not given
any such opinion. and if your CORE
spondent had wanted to learn the truth
or falsity of the report he colld easily
whether the county authorities are act
ing under any such pretended opinion.
The only ground for such report is
asked me if the town authorities had
cases outside Of The town limits, and
made the answer. Yes, they nave the
right To quarantine all cases inside of
one mile from the limits Of the town"
There was rot a word said as to who
should tal-e care Of them, )r at whose
expense it should be- The tru-h IS. there
is not now. nor has there been, several
cases OF scarlet fever outside of the
town limits. 1 have only heard of one,
and that is under quarantine.
= any of the county officers want an
opinion on this matter, l am ready to
give one. Yours respectfully,

Poor craftsmanship of an excited
man was all that prevented a killing
Friday at Vista, a small railroad sta
ton east of Reno. Vicuquerra Pascal
discovered his friend, Eugene Cara
vanta, with Pascafs wife. He chased
GaraVanta from the house, firing sew
eIal shots. Garavanta fell, and Pascal
running up TO him, landed bullet in
his back. Quickly regaining his feet
the wounded man lodged about some
wagons and succeeded in escaping
without further injury. Some by
ISLANDERS grabbed Pascal, who tussled
hard to get away, saying he wanted to
kill his wife. He was arrested and
taken to Reno. Garavantas wound is
not dangerous.
