removed from the settlements.
The winter had been unusually long
and severe, and their stock Of prOvi-
siOns ran low. 1t was n long distance to
municatiOn with the outside world had
been cut off. Indians in the neighbor-
hood one night broke into the granary
where the wheat was stored and stole
a quantity. In doing this a large
amount of broken glass became mixed
with the wheat which the Indians left,
so for many days, amid much merry
story telling and many joke anG
laugh, in spite of the serious situation,
the family gathered about large table
in their living room and spent the
short winter days picking over the
free it from the pieces of glass.
For this wheat stood between them
and starvation, and none of it's pre-
ciOuS kernels must be lost. Their stock
of flour had long since wasted away,
as had most of their food supplies, SO
they boiled and ate the wheat without
grinding. Relief reached them just in
time to prevent sad ending to the eX-
perience.

SENSATIONAL

Declaration That Hamilton, the Desperate

A decidedly sensational claim was ad-

the advent Of Saturday morning last in
this city by firing bullets into the legs

the death penalty now hangs. This Is
substantially the story told TO a "News'
representative by a well known Salt
Lake attorney this afternoon.
''The robbery at the Sheep Ranch

in the minds Of the Salt Lake public.

Huge aud Expensive Appcttes
Municipality Must go II Alone.

The county health board, consisting
OF the three county commissioners and
DR.. Mayo. couny physician, held a
short session this morning before the
regular meeting Of the county COM
mission. The request Of DR. stroup,
health officer at Bingham. for salary
for work performed, was denied for the
reason that the law says such officer
shall serve without compensation.
Or. H. A. Anderson who has held
the position Of county physician for
the past Two years, handed in his resIg-
nation, which was accepted, and Dr.
Mayo appointed IN his stead, as health
officer OF district No. /.
on motion Of Or. Mayo. it was de-
cided TO urge more stringent measures
against smallpox and see If the disease
could not be stamped out If develop
ment Of any Of the cases can be traced

city and county have united In MAIN

come too expensive. The patients at
the hospital appear TO develop huge ape

treatment. Large orders are sent down
nearly every day for oysters, high

bles. including canned goods and fruits,
