mond.
The secret Of Apostle A. H. Lund's
Sanpete county boom for congress is
out. Some time ago W. D. Candland
and Peter Thompson of Sanpete were
candidates for the position Of state
land board commissioner. All Sanpete
was for them, but they were turned
down cold and Thomas D. Reese was
given the job The Sanpeters charged
their defeat up to J. T. Hammond, and
have been laying for him since.
Web Greene was knocked out for
census superintendent through Post
master Thomas and Colonel Lannan,
and as Hammond is considered a pro
tege of theirs, Web Greene went after
his scalp also. These three. Candland,
Thompson and Greene, started the i'll
fated Sanpete boom for Apostle Lund.
and they did it to square accounts
with the men who smashed their po-
litical aspirations; that is all.

Mrs. Ellen Crosby has had narrow
escape from being buried alive in
Crawford county. She had been pro-
nounced dead and preparations for the
burial were being made. While this
was in progress her daughter, 10 years
old. worn out by exhaustion, lay down
to rest. hut her eyes had scarcely clos
ed before she sprars up and peremp-
torily insisted that her mothers body
be returned to the bed. She remarked
that her mother had called to her in
her sleep, saying MARY, don't let
them bury me alive"
The undertaken complied with the
daughters request, saying 1t was but
dream, but the daughter stoutly
claimed the contrary and would not be
denied. Nearly eight hours passed,
when Mrs. Crosby slowly opened her
eyes and looked at her daughter, who
had remained by her bedside, constant
ly watching for a return of life.
Mrs. Crosby is now considered in q
fair way to recovery.

We found most of the farms along our line of march deserted with white flags waving over the house. All the be- longfngs were taken away, and there were evident signs that the occupants left in a great hurry, things being Uttered about
 "The commander-in-chief has given strict orders that nothing be touched. It is not ex- pected that we shall meet with great oppo- sttion in entering Bloemfontein."
