Special per Deseret Telegraph:

years. The two boys went out to the
stone quarry this morning, with some
neighbor boys, who were hauling rock.
When the wagon was loaded the Jensen
boy got on to come to town. He held
in his hands an old double barreled
muzzle loading shotgun, that he was
intending to bring with him. The Larsen
boy wanted to keep the gun at the
quarry until the wagon came for an
other load and so grabbed hold of the
barrel to jerk 1t away from Jensen.
While thus pulling, the one who had
hold of the muzZle, and the other the
stock, the gun was discharged, and its
Whole contents, consisting of No. 5
shot, entered Larsen'S abdomen, COM
pletely tearing it open, and causing his
severed intestines to gush out.
The wounded boy was Immediately
brought to town, and Dr. Griffiths was

wound was fatal and that the boy had
but short time to live.

Hickman, a well known citizen of this
place, with a companion, Mr.. Fred
Linebach of Ophir, were found over

Mr.. Hickman left home about $3.50 on
Friday afternoon without leaving any

he desired to get his tools from shaft
near the old Baltic upon which he had
been doing some work. Before leaving
town, Mr.. Linebach was seen to join
him, both men riding the borrowed
horse. Arriving at the shaft, il is
supposed that the men started down
and became overpowered by BLACK

man had not returned. his wife be-
came worried. and early the next MORN
ing searching party started after the
missing men. Arriving at the prospect

Damp Five hours were occupied in
clearing it out before the bodies of the
men We're found.

VERNAL.
Vernal Celebrates - Railroad Ruinous
StOrms-A Heavy Hail Storm.

SrOrms-A heaVy StOTns
Special Correspondence.
Vernal, Aug 19.-Today is being OBJ
served as a general holiday in Vernal
agreeable to the Governors proclama-
ton and if we were only connected with
the capital by railroad Uintah county
would contribute large contingent to
the multitude who will assemble to do
honor to the returned volunteers.
Speaking of railroads it was reported
on the streets the other day that there
is a corps of surveyors in Nine Mile
Canyon between this place and Price
looking out a route for branch of the
Rio Grande Western. Out here it is not
generally believed. for it is thought
that when the road does come, and its
coming is inevitable, it will come down
the Duchesne river. The natural grade
of the country between this place and
Salt Lake as we'll as the most direct
route, is up the Provo river from Heber
then down the DucheSne river. This
route would not only give a better
grade but would tap one of the largest
timber sections in the State and trav-
erse the Indian reservation its entire
length and in the best and most fertile
posts. When the reservation is thrown
open to settlers they will build their
towns along the Duchesne and there is
room for hundreds of them between
Vernal and the upper Indian farms.
We have had a stormy time lately,
but the climax came at Green River
fifteen miles below here. Hail of i'm
mense size fell and some fields of grain
We're literally wiped out of existence,
also the second crop of lucern, which
was only partly gathered. The hail
came with such terrific force that the
windows on the south and west sides
of the houses were completely shat
tered. At sunrise next morning there
were drifts of hail six inches deep and
blocks of ice an inch in diameter.
J. J. Thomas of the board of equaliZa-
ton and E. B. Squires, both of Salt
Lake, have been among us during the
last week on official business. The har-
vest is in full blast here and the album
dance of the golden sheaves betokens a
bountiful harvest.
Taken all together Uintah county is
experiencing a season of unprecedent-
ed prosperity and is bound to come to
the front as one of the richest sections
in the State.
