DELIGHTFUL EVENING.
Shower Party at Christian
Church Last Night.

The ladies of the Christian church
entertained last night. The new
Sunday school room was opened to
members of the congregation and
the large number of persons enjoyed
the evening to the fullest. 1t was
called Shower Party" and was
given to supply the dining room and
kitchen with articles that are neces-
sary, such as china ware, plated
ware of all kinds for tie tables and
articles needed for the kitchen.
1t is needless to say that the call
of the leading ladies of the church
was most literally responded to, for
which the ladies are most grateful.
After spending quite a time in
conversation and admiring the ar
rangement of the different rooms
and the handsome furniture refresh
ments were served. The ladies in
charge were in their element and
made the evening a most delightful
one to everybody.

built or less. The work Of grading
will begin as soon as favorable
weather opens in the spring and by
the end of summer the. pike will be
completed ~ During this year the

Unfortunate Man Lost Both
Hands in a Saw
Mill.
WAS IS YEARS OLD.
Two Daughters and One
Son Deaf and
Dumb.

The saddest death that has been
reported in the city or county for
years was that Of Seth Littleton
Hord, which was>discovered last Sat
urday morning between z and 8
O'Clock by his son, Seth, and others
who had been looking for Hord
all the day before. When found
he was lying cold in death in field
north of the pumping station, about
mile and half from the city.
Lit" Hord, as-ne was generally
called, walked into town Thursday
and stayed pretty much all day and
was seen by Julian Hord late in the
afternoon. When night came on
and he didn't appear at home, about
81 miles from the city, his family
grew little apprehensive as to his
safety, as he often INDUCED quite
freely in drink when ne came to
town.
Nothing being learned of his
whereabouts Friday morning the
family. including his son Seth and
and his two boys, began making
further inquiry, and being unable to
learn anything of what became of
him late Thursday evening, when
seen by Mr.. Hord, began securing
the country lying between the home
of the dead man and the city, the
search continuing throughout the
day.
SATURDAY. morning the search was
renewed and the body was found at
the place indicated above, The feel
ings of his son and two grandchil-
dren can be better imagined than
described when they found that the
poor man had started home Thurs
day about dark, or after dark, and
had fallen on the way and frozen to
death.
AS soon as the body was found the
coroner was summoned ard an in
quest was held, the verdict of the
jury being in accordance with the
above.
Mr.. Hord was well known in the
city and attracted the particular
attention of children as he was
known by them as 1.-The man without
hands," Something like fifteen
years ago he lost both hands just
above the wrist bone at a saw mill.
The wonder at the time was that
his body was not sawed in twain
when he fell in front of the cir
cular saw After many long months
of helplessness emerged from his
home to again mingle with his
friends, all of whom had the deepest
sympathy for him. Soon he got so
that he could drive his gentle team
of two horses by wrapping the lines
around each of his arm stubs and he
seemed to enjoy life as much as
any one.
Probably no man in the county
was more entitled to the sympathy
of the public than the deceased.
Unfortunate as he was he, with the
help of his devoted and self-sacri-
ficing wife, he reared a family of seven
children, now all grown and some of
them married. In addition to the
work of raising and providing for
seven children as they grew up, three
of their offspring were born deaf
mutes- two Of the daughters and
one son, which made the lot of Mr..
and Mrs. Hord much harder than
most people. But mothers love
and patience and a fathers faith
fulness won their greatest battle of
life. The three afflicted children
were educated at the Deaf and Dumb
Institute and returned afterwards
to the old home to do their parts ia

Rumor has it that 90, 900 shop men are
to be put at work along the line of the
Union Pacific, says the Deseret News of
Salt Lake. Nothing official has reached
Salt Lake, but if the report is true, this
action is undoubtedly one result of the

voted for an issue Of 500, 900, 900 on
bonds on two roads taken in by the u. P.
1t was explained by q. Fl. Hartman that
all the money would not be used. A poi
tion of it would be used to fix up the

About 20 900 shop men with other labor
