the societies is of peculiar interest to
Mr.. Waite as he was one of the found
ers and it was chartered by the Yer
mont Legislature in 1896, chiefly
through his efforts. He was one OF

smoke coming from the windows and rushed
home and found the fire in chamber. There
was no stove or chimney in the ROOM vet it
was all in blaze. The ommode and bed in
the room seemed to be the starting place of
the fire and it had burned through a parti
ton and was making great Roadway when
discovered. The house is outside the corpora
tion and the hose could not be used upon it
as there was no hydrant near, but a crowd
soon gathered and efficient work was done
with pals and the fire was soon extiuguished
but not until everything was badly damaged
Their house was nearly new, having been
built within the last few years, and the barn
was just completed. Mr.. Atwell threw pail
of water on the bed and tried to smother
the flames and the steam came in his face and
burned him very badly. 1t is feared that he
inhaled some of the flames, also, and he is
suffering very much. They are Industrious,

NOW AND THEN.

Here are a few more clippings from
Goodwin's Weekly of year ago. Com
pare the mental condition of Goodwin
now and then. Now the Weekly is d
champion of the Revenge Society
which he so vigorously denounced
then. A year ago it said, and said
truly:
while deploring apostolic influence
and church rule, and praying that
Utah may become a real American
State, let us stop a moment and make
some calculations. Suppose the Amer
lean party, under present auspices,
could succeed, accomplish all it has in
view, and then an election was to be
held, what then? Naturally the men
who pledged life, fortune and sacred
honor, when the cause was in swad-
ding clothes, would be entitled to the
first rewards, would they not? We all
agree on that certainly. Well, then,
behind these sappers and miners the
general who planned the campaign
would be entitled to the chifest honor,
would he not? This being accepted,
we find ourselves in another fix. That
general is the same boss that he was
four years ago, when he first beguiled
the church into securing for him a
United States Senatorship, the same
that he was three years and two years
ago aid this year up to about six
! months ago. When he was boss before
