Hon. A. Z. Vandeventer spoke
at PerryviIle last Saturday, and
is said to have bodily lifted the
breeches from Gov, Davis before
an enthusiastic audience. Once
during his address when a knot
of Davis men, evidently collected
for the purpose, began to inter-
rupt him, Mr.. Vandeventer turned
and said: "Listen to that band
Of coyotes. Why is it that Davis
men can't keep still when I'm
speaking? I'm sure | won't dis
turb them. Vote as you please.
If you haven't been pardoned
and keep on you will soon want
to be pardoned." Applause fol-
lowed th;S 9}Pld speech, and the
speaker was interrupted no more.
1t is said Mr.. Vandeventer is
making friends wherever he
meets the peopls. 1t is said also
that his arraignment of Gov. Da-
Wis is the most caustic denuncia-
ton of public official ever heard
in the South.

A new game called Christian

with some of the young people Of

the other side, he is the Heather,
then the Heather embraces

General Cassius M, Clay, am
bassador to Russia under Presi-
dent Lincoln, noted abolitionist,
politician and writer, died last
week near Lexington, Kentucky,
at the age Of SO years. For sew
eral years General Clay lived a
life Of seclusion in his White Hall
home, which he had strongly
fortified, believing his children
had entered a conspiracy to take
his life. A few weeks ago the
courts broke this seclusion by
appointing a co nmi,tee to take
charge Of him and his effects.

WIFESNARR0W ESCAPE
American Fork Blacksmith At

Half While Drunk.
lsneciaI ID u HeraId.l

American Fork, Utah May 1O-Sam
Newton. a blacksmith of this place,
tried to kin his wife today, and no
doubt would have succeeded if it had
not been for the nerve Of the wife. He
has been drinking very heavily the
last few days and came home this
morning and started a quarrel with
her, and finally got a shotgun and
threatened to shoot her, and was in the
act of placing the shells in the gun
wher she knocked them out of his hand
and then started 10 run away He
raised the gun and struck her in the
back of the head cutting a large cash
and knocking ner insensiDle. This
rather sObered him. and the nefshbors
came in to her rescue. A policeman
was called and took Newton to the
Jail.
DR.. Eigan was summoned and attend
ed to the WOmau'S wound. 1t was
found necessary to take a number of
stitches in her head to close the cut
Some twenty or thirty men followed
the policeman and Newton to Jail, and
there was talk Of taking him away
from the policeman and using him
roughly. All it would have needed was
for some one of the crowd to have made
a start and he no doubt would have
been handled very roughly. as he has
been accused of beating his wife before
and is of a mean disposition when
drinking. Newton is now in the city
Jail, and viii no doubt have to an
swer to the district court for attempted
murder. The wife will recover.
