Three young men, two of them
Commercials, went to Smithheld
Wednesday on horse back. When
they returned, one Of them was riding
in cart, the strain having proved too
much for him Neither of them
could be recognized until a layer or
two of Cache Valley mud had been
removed.
In our last issue an item was pub
liShed about Mrs. Peter Nielsen, of
Smithield, being favored with a pair
of twin boys. Our informant gave it
over the phone as Peter Nielsen,
while the initials are, as we under
stand it, y. H. Nielsen. The happy
father is the harness maker in Smith
field. We make this explanation so
that the wrong person may not have
the credit for the Commendable act.
\ surprise party on Mrs. Florence
Parkinson was given Wednesday even
ing and it was indeed a complete sur
prise. The evening was spent in games
and music and at midnight dainty re-
freshmcnts were served and enjoyed
by all present. At late hour the guests
departed for their homes having spent
an enjoyable evening. Those invited
were: Misses Alton, Lizzie and Neda
Parkinson, Lettie Jeppeson, Jennie
Turner, Dora Friday, lrma Rosa.
Ella Friday. Hazel Pond, Sive Jeppe-
son, Fred Parkinson, John II. Turner,
Seth Blair, Earnest Dahle, Mark
Parkinson, Sam Blair, Dixie Shelton,
MILFORD Thorpe and Howard Wilson.
While Andrew King was member
of the Logan police department he be-
came the father OF twins. Not mil
lion years ago, Peter Christensen, one
of our efficient officers, awoke one
morning and found that he was the
father of two extras, and now comes
Don G. Benson, one of the best officers
the city ever had, and caps the whole
bunch with bankruptcies. In view of
this remarkable record it might seem
advisable for such men as Lee Tnatch-
er, Moses Jorgensen land Aren't John
son to get position on the force. AS
foe to race suicide, the Logan police
department has no greater even in the
person of our strenuous Teddy, and the
City council will probably take up the
matter and ask for endowment.
Mr.. f. f. Plowman has Just recent
ly installed switchboard in the
Thatcher opera house, one of the
latest and best makes, the superior of
which is not to be found in cities
smaller than Salt Lake. The entire
house has been revived in such a man
ner as to insure beyond doubt the
impOSSibilty Of fire from electrical con-
tact. On Wednesday evening repre-
Sentatives OF the owners of the opera
house went to the building examined
the work and were pleased to accept
it, The new switch board is an intri.
cate affair and explanations involve
technical terms that mean little &c
the uninitatcd. However, the house
is much better lighted than before
and as a whole the installation is q
splendid success.

mendatiOnS and enthusiasm over the
art, about twenty cadets at the a

the drill like clockwork, Beside

pupils at work, do not fail TO see him
for he is most proficient instructor.
