BARKER INELIGIBLEY

Unique Question Arises Affecting Candi-
date Of AEiddie-Of-the Readers.
A Chicago dispatch says: A sensa-
ton has been caused by the discovery
that Wharton Barker, the middle-of-
the-road candidate for president on
the Populist ticket, is ineligible for
the Office.
II is said that while experimenting
some improvements in Russia some
years ago Mr.. Barker was made 'gord
81 st. Wenchelas" by the car.
Before accepting the title he did not
ask congress to grant the privilege, and
he is, therefore, said to be ineligible
because he forfeited his citizenship by
accepting the honor.

Awreck on the Utah and Pacific.

AWreck on the Utah and Pacific.
Last Thursday afternoon wreck
occurred between Uvada and Modena
on the Utah and Pacific train in
which several passengers were hurt,
among them being Mrs. Jas Giles
and Mrs. George Harris of Della
mar and Bennett springs. The train
has always backed down to Modena,
as they had no (Y) at that place, and
this causes them to either back up
or down, which has been the custom
for over year.
1t seems as though a COW was
standing on the track which was not
seen by the R. R. employees until
they had run her down, when the
passenger and baggage car left the
track. Mrs. Giles scalp was laid
back several inches, Mrs Harris had
her arm fractured and was badly
shaken up. The other passengers
were all very lucky, as there was a
doctor at Modena, who dressed their
wounds, SO they could proceed on
their journey. A special train was
brought from Milford and the
wounded and Scared were taken
safely on their journey tc Milford.

AS To Mining Stocks.
1t is not safe to keep stock for
any length of time in any name ex-

are under the impression that where
stock is in the name of some persons
rs "trustee" or "agent" that such
stock can safely be held by them,
and thousand of people are doing it
,o.day. A great many of these per-
sons do not even know the person
whose name is on the stock they are
their whole reliance being
IN the fact that following the name
s the word trustee or agent.
This is great mistake and risk
which people should be warned
lgainst, for the court has decided
hat those words trustee and agent,
ollowing name on the face of
certificate of stock, mean absolutely
or, as they say, are "words
# description, " and that the stocks
'elongs to the person whose name is
N the stock. Mining Investor.
