FIRE WEDNESDAY
NIGHT
TERRY BROS DRUG STORE.
Alarm Given About IL o'clock.

On Wednesday night of the
Fourth about II O'Clock, the
store of Terry Bros. was discov-
ed to be on fire. 1t was burning
in the rear among the oil barrels.
At the first alarm the fire COM
pany was on hand and by heroic
fighting the spread of the fire
was checked. There was a fine
pressure and on the wind was not
blowing which made it very
much in favor Of the boys. W.
I. Hart whose store was adjoin-
ing the one on fire suffered con.
siderable damage on account of
water. His goods were literally
soaked. Terry Bros, is almost a
complete loss. The damage done
is estimated by them to be in the
neighborhood of $4,000 and that
of Hart at 50 or $4,000. No
other property was damaged.
Both firms are fully protected by
insurance.

BROKE JAIL.
THREE NEGROES ESCAPED
TUESDAY EVENING.
Cut Through Brick Wall After
Prying Cell Door Open.
JOHN FLURNOY CAPTURED NEXT
DAY BY OFFICERS.

Tuesday afternoon while there
was no one at the Jail all the pris-
oners escaped by prying the cell
door open and cutting through
the wall and going down through
the hall of the building and max
ing good their escape. There
were four in the jail, all negroes.
There are no keys to the cells.
The contractors after completing
the Jail carried the keys off and
the commissioners were unable
to get them, and the sheriff had
some made for the outer doors
but could get none for the cells.
One of the negroes, John Flur-
noy, was in the run-round and
obtained handle bar that was
attached to the cell doors and pry-
ed the cell open and let the 9TH
ers out. The masonry was very
easily gone through as the NOR
tar seemed to be rotten.

noy was captured next day by a
posse that went out after them
about two miles north of town.

ed to have gone in a southerly
direction.
There can be no blame attached
to the officers in the two recent
Jail deliveries, as every one
thought we had an absolutely
safe jail. Upon investigation
since the two deliveries tits plain
that it is NOT the fact. There
should be something done. The
walls should be either concreted
about four or FIVE inches on the
inside or there should be steel
bars placed around them.

The indications now point to a
big crop, but let us not get in too

MUCH THRESHING
YET TO BE DONE
Wheat Still In the Shock
in Western Canada
Tom WalfOrd Tells All
About the Situation.

Thomas Wolford and VIM. Aims
cough are down from Cardston. Can.
ada, FOR week or more just to visit
relatives and old friends in this coun-
ty Mr.. Wolford is looking hale and
hearty and while Mr. AinScough would
never impress one as "a candidate for
football honors, he is in good health.
Both have good words for the Cana
dian county. Mr. Woford, whose
holdings now reach S25, 600 or $50 900,
is confident that lac struck it right in
gong there.
In speaking of farming interests Mr..
Wallord made the astonishing state
ment That threshing of wheat will not
be finished under three weeks yet,
The wheat was cut in August, and
though five steam threShcrs have been
in the immediate vicinity since that
time, much Of the wheat is still in the
field. Snow has drifted about the
shGks but the farmers there think
nothing of this, saying that much of
1t will be blown away, and that the
wheat dries out readily. The state
ment is made that January proves the
best month for threshing.
1t is said that there is more snow in
Cache now than in Cardston, and that
it is colder here.
The friends of these gentlemen are
glad to greet them once more and re-
greet that business interests necessi-
tate such an early return to their
northern homes.

ENT MEDICINES
State Secretary Has been
Making Investigations
And Now Propose to talk
To the People

Secretary II b Beatty, of the state
Board Of Hcalth,iS preparing pamph.
let TO be distributed broadcast through
the State giving analyses Of various
patent medicines, showing that many
OF them contain large percentage OF
cocoainc, opium and alcohol SAYS a
Salt Lake dispatch
For the past two years Or. Beatty
has been working upon this subject
and has secured analyses of many Of
the well known patent medicines, not
only from the Utah State Chemist,
but from various State Chemists IN
the union The quantity Of patent
medicines sold, Dr. Beatty says Is evil
dence to him that many people drink
alcohol In large quantities who would
spurn glass of pure whskcy
The investigation by Or Beatty has
been made in the interest OF the pub
lie health, and in speaking of the mat
ter Thursday he expressed the belief
that once the people of the state un.
derstoOd the nature of many of the
patent medicines that are put upon
the market, and their harmful effects
because OF the narcotics they contain,
the sale of the so-called patent medi-
cineS will be greatly reduced.
Thousands of copies of the pamphlet
now being prepared by Or. Beatty
will be distributed through the state
and county boards Of health. 1t will
be ready in a short time and copies
may be obtained from the secretary of
