Ed Jackson, who shot down Sheriff
Daniels at Montgomery Wednesday,
appeared at Montgomery during the

of his friends, who were heavily
armed. When it became known that
Jackson was in the city another posse
was organized and attempted to secure
Jackson. In this effort they were
foiled, for when the posse charged on
Jackson and his friends the latter
drew their guns and beat back the
posse, who retreated. The greatest ex-
citement prevailed at Montgomery
when it became known that Jackson
was in the city and for time riot

STRIKE NEAR SILVER PEAK
Salt Lake Prospecting Syndicate
Gets $50 Ore at Grass Roots.

A syndicate of Salt Takers, includ-
ing +. H. Lathrap, Nj. l.. Effinger
and others, have had a couple of men
prospecting in Nevada for the past
two months or more and the latest
reports Indicate that they have been
doing well. Just south of where the
Nevada Park Mining company has
undertaken the opening up Of a rich
silver, lead and gold proposition in
the Silver Peak district, under the
management Of Jesse Knight, some
fine claims have been secured.
Samples of the ore sen in, Mr..
Lathrap says, carry values in the
different metals OF $50 per ton. The
ledge is reported to be a strong one
and for surface rock the assays are
looked upon as being out Of the or
binary.
For some time past Mr.. Etinger
has been in and around T%onopah, but
learning of the discovery made in the
Silver Peak region he left Tonopah
for that section Immediately. After
Mr.. Ehinger's arrival there Mr..
Lathrap expects to receive another
batch of samples and further details
of what development is showing.
The country is a good one, according
to report, and it is thought very
possible that the strike made is an
important one.-Salt Lake Herald

Laxatiye doses Of Ayers Pills each

DecIlne of Golden Weddings.

Attesting the frequency of golden
weddings in these times are the arti-
cles displayed in certain shops OF
special suitability for gifts on such oe-
casions. In making them the best
quality of silver is used, and then there
is an overlay of fourteen carat gold.
So in all that meets the eye the gift
will be of pure gold. Probably it will
wear. too-outwear. indeed, the recip-
tents of it by a good many years and
descend to other generations as heir
looms to be treasured carefully-the
more carefully, it is very probable, be-
cause in days to come golden weddings
may be more uncommon than now.
The business of cutting off in their
prime marriages that, if all went WELL
should reach the half century mark is
in such a fiourishing condition in the
divorce courts that golden weddings
must be rarer in another fifty years.

NJ IA Important Victory.

st. Petersburg. April 27.-The cen
sors committee did not give out the
dispatches received regarding the
movements of the japanese across the
Yalu river. 1t was intimated that in
formation had been received that the
Japanese had crossed the river, but this
was accompanied by a statement that
the success of the enemy should in no
sense be regarded as an important vic
tory, the Russians having no intention
of vigorously contesting the passage,
their plan being to annoy the enemy as
much as possible.
1t is evident from the dispatches re-
ceived here that, in order to render a
crossing feasible. the Japanese made a
feint on Tatung Kau, while the troops
actually crossed some miles up the
river near Tchangdjiou. Two companies
were first thrown into Manchuria and
unquestionably entrenched, and imme-
diately under the cover of their guns
reinforcements crossed.
1t is regarded as probable that when
these troops are in sufficient numbers

bank of the Yalu in the direction of
Antung, near which lies the road on
which the advance can continue to
Feng Hoang Tchang, where the first
determined stand of the Russians will
be made.
No report has been received here, Of
fetal or otherwise, showing casualties
on either side.
The entrance into the service Of
four submarine boats at Port Arthur
means the addition Of a new and for
midable weapon for the defense of that
stronghold. The dispatch Of the boats
IN sections over the railroad has been
shrouded in secrecy, and even today
many in st. Petersburg are inclined to
doubt the report by officials Of their
presence at Port Arthur or to accept
the information as trustworthy.
Any effort now to close or blockade
Port Arthur will be too dangerous, 1t is
