Fell From ScaffOld.

Texarkana, Sept. A. William Dutton, a house painter, fell from a scaffold thirty feet high while painting a house on West Broad street and was very seri- ously, but not fatally injured. He fell on a brick pavement and cut an ugly gash in his head. He would doubtless have been killed had not the force of his fall been broken by some timbers a few yards above the pave ment.

Two days later, a gentleman of fine ad-
dress called. He was about 30 years Of
age, wore silk hat and tailor-made
suit of clothes, was glib of tongue, and
carried a fair-sized valise. He came just
at dusk, and introducing himself as q
fire insurance agent, explained that he
was travelling on foot, was somewhat
tired and weary, and wanted to procure
supper, lodging and breakfast.
After supper, and during the evening,
while talking fire insurance, and after
having displayed his papers, blank ap-
plications, door plates, etc., he began dis
cussing other subjects, and topics OF the
day. Directly he remarked that he in
tended to resign his position with the
insurance company, and engage in some
thing where he could make money faster,
and alluded to a former experience in
which he had made lot of money in a
short time, handling patent right.
This, for the first time, reminded the
farmer that he was agent for a mighty
fine patent, and forthwith he brought out
the washing machine the general agent
had left with him

relatives, l. found them all in turmoil,
and in frame Of mind to lynch anyone

A few days before my arrival, very
slick, well-dressed gentleman had called
upon one of their rich neighbors, and
represented himself to be the general
agent of washing machine He was
anxious to establish an agency for the
sale of both the machine and county or
state rights, and said to the farmer:

an hour. and then had dreamed of sell
ing washing machines galore, and town.
ship and county rights by the score.
While at the breakfast table, he ven
tured to ask the farmer, what he could
sell him 20 counties for, and producing
state map, he selected the counties he
wanted. The farmer carefully thought
the matter over, and although he
thought $500 county would enable the
insurance man to make plenty of money.
by cutting them up into township rights,
still he would let him have them (if he
took 20 counties) at 5000 each.
The insurance man thought the price
rather high, and dickered along until
about eight o'clock in the morning, when
he made the farmer a point blank offer
of $3.50 county, for the 20 counties. He
said, as he did so, that he had formerly
been school teacher in place several

Typhoid fever is sometimes called ner
vous fever. During the course of the
fever the nerves arc always profoundly
disturbed, and when it is over they are
left so sensitive that the patient has to
be guarded against all excitement. In the
tonic treatment then demanded, regard
must be paid not only to building updesh
but also to strengthening the nerves. A
remedy that will do both, make sound
flesh to repair waste and give new vigor
to feeble nerves, is the most convenient
and economical. Such remedy is DIR.

The Oregon Short Line has in view
in Cache county and that portion OF
Idaho lying near by. For years the
section has been without transportation
facilities, but if the present plan goes
through not only will the sugar factory
have new line for traffic but new
section will be opened to Logan trade.
Then the company has an idea of con-
necting Paris, Idaho and that fertile
region around the Bear lake with the
Logan branch, which would turn much
travel that way and place the region in
direct communication with Logan and
Salt Lake. David Eccles and G. w.
