Ripley S. Lyon.

Those who remember Mr.. Ripley 5
Lyon as Cashier of the First National
Bank recall him as fine looking
gentleman of robust health. courteous
demeanor, kindly disposition and
admirable traits. Those who see
him now, thin and suffering to the
extent of having to go about on
crutches deeply regret the marked
change in his health, and will no
doubt be more than interested to
know of the trials through which he
has yaliantly fought his way during
the past few years. IL will be remem-
bered that while cashier of the bank
he suffered a severe attack Of typhoid
and for long time was patient at
hospital in Salt Lake. He returned
to Logan and took up his duties be-
fore he was well enough to do so, but
i'm spite Of the fact that the business
of the bank had increased enormously
he staid at the cashiers desk for five
months with practically no assistance.
Mr. Fleming having gone to Ken
lucky for that length of time. When
Mr. Fleming returned, Mr. Lyon was
practically "done for" and was advised
to 90 down to the sea level for time.
He went to the eastern coast and
while in Glenn Falls, New York, took
tumble down flight of stairs,
landing at the bottom on the lower
end of his spine. He suffered a
terrific shock but did not antici-
pate that he was seriously hurt.
Later he was advised that he had
suffered rupture and by two diff
ferent physicians was advised to use
truss. This did not offer relief and
after five or six months he went to
San Francisco and consulted a ply
stefan, who Immediately told him that
his difficulty was an injury TO the
spine. His fall in New York had
bruised one or two of the vetcbra,
these had decayed, and puss had
formed all through the groin and pei !
Wis. An operation was performed, |
and in order to keep from being a
"hunch-back" Mr.. Lyon laid Hat in
bed for more than two years. He is |
not entirely recovered yet, but has
hopes of regaining his one-time good .
health, and those who are aware of
the nerve he possess can readily be-
lieve that he will fight for it. A host
of friends here wish for him all the
good things that can possibly come to
him

Caches County Clerk.

The state Supreme court "A few days
ago handed down an opinion in the
case of A. l.. Farrell VS. Jacob n. Lar

general satisfaction and increased the
confidence of the people in the in

A Sad Story.

A sad story comes from Alton,
Wyo., following the account OF the
tragedy at that place, the details OF
which were published week or so
ago. 1t will be remembered that
there was a shooting ARRAY in which
man named vii. Davis was killed
and saloonkeeper named John Mer-
rill was wounded. 1t seems to have
grown out of family quarrel.
Sometime before the shooting Mrs.
Lennon, sister of Davis, and her
husband, separated, and the husband
took their little boy while the wife
was to take the little girl. This did
not suit Mrs. Lennon and with the
aid of her brother she made several un-
successful attempts to kidnap the boy
and take him with her to the Big
Horn country where her people live.
Davis and his wife lived in Big
Horn, while Mrs. Lennon remained
with her husband at Alton in Star
valley, working at Merrill's saloon and
looking for a chance to steal the boy.
One day Davis came to town and rode
up to Merrill's saloon, where he met
Lennon. his brother-in-law, and a
quarrel ensued followed up by the
shooting, during which about 30 shots
were fired, one of which killed Davis,
while Merrill was shot in both arms,
Lennon escaping without injury.
During the fight Mrs. Merrill, also a
sister of Davis, procured shotgun
and tried to kill Lennon. 1t was
taken away from her but not until
both barrels had been discharged.
Lennon was arrested by Sheriff
James
While Davis went to meet his fate
at Alton, his wife was at home in the
Big Horn country looking after her
children and attending to her house
hold and other duties. One day while
she was working in the house with
her little two-year-old baby playing
about her feet. she heard scream
from her eldest boy who was swim
ming in the stream near by. She ran
to his assistance but came too late as
no sign of the boy could be seen. She
was distracted with grief and return
ed to the house, where to her dismay,
she found that the baby had also dis
appeared.
Strangest thing of all is, no clue to
the mystery of the child's disappear
ance could be obtained. Added to
the loss of her two children she
received the next DAY the news of the
killing of her husband. Lennon
and Merrill are both former residents
of Cache valley. News.

l Lesson About CASTLE Soaps.

The U. S. dispensatory defines
CASTLE Soap thus:
"Soap prepared from olive oil
and soda.
Basing the compromising of all
medicinal and toilet articles upon
that authority, all CASTLE Soap
should be made of those substances.
This is where the difference lies:
on the market are the so-called
CASTLE Soaps, which do not con-
tain these ingredients.
But there are CASTLE Soaps which
are guaranteed to be pure in the
required compounds.
The CASTLE Soaps we have are OF
the latter class, and our stock is 50
complete that you can always come
with assurance of getting what you
want.

To Farmers.

There should be some Guernsey

The past month has been almost
ideal corn weather, so that many Utah
farmers this year will reap harvest
of corn that will equal that Of the
Mississippi valley states, excepting
that i'm extent the Utah crop will be as

make Iowa corn growers blush for

We desire to again refer to the ideal
pasture at the Agricultural college of
Utah. The pasture land was original
ly the poorest imaginable for such
purpose, being a sort of cement gravel
and cobble stone mixture. BY thorough
cultivation and utilization the land
was gotten into condition to grow
grass ten years ago. Nine varieties of
grasses were used in seeding, and
through much nursing u stand was
secured. Last year one acre of the
pasture was fenced Off and two milch
cows pastured thereon from May 18th
right through to Thanksgiving. The
main pasture did nearly as well, car.
rying three head of cattle to each two
acres right through the season. There
is no secret about making the pasture,
nor do the college folks possess any
knowledge upon the subject that they
are not willing to impart to Others.
Any Utah farmer may have just as
good or better pasture than the one
at the college. lntermountain Far
