The elOpemeut Of Mr.. Macintosh and
his glrlish bride was great surprise to
their many friends in this city. and has
been the topic for much discussion at the
University Of Utah, where Mrs. Mackin-

ogden. Dec. 15-Work on the develop
ment Of the valuable liquid asphalt de-
posts on the shores of Great Salt Lake
discovered several years ago and for the
working of which the ogden Lakeshore
Oil & Asphaltum company was recently
organized in this city, has already begun.
a standard drilling machine, capable OF
drilling 5000 feet below the surface, has
been purchased and a well is now being
driven. Everything points 10 an mex
haustible deposit of the valuable asphalt
tum. The find is located about Is miles
from the western end of the Lucin cut
off at what is known as Resell flats.
Ira Haskin and W. o. Wheat, two Of
the directors of the new company, say
they have found absolute proof that at
depth of $500 feet a. flow of asphalt will
be encountered large enough to tax to the
limit any plant the company can build
for the handling of the product. The
wells are being drilled close to the shore
and the product will be handled in
barges. which have already been trans
ported to the scene of activity. The as
phalt contains elements for the manufac-
tuTe of by-prOducts of the order of paint,
timber preservatives. lubricating Oh and
others. As soon as sufficient capital can
be procured work on a scale so extensive
as to mean the establishment of a great
new industry will commence.

TORE IS Burned SAMPLE COUNTY JURORS
Thieves Start Fire to Hide the Rob-
berry Of the Building Wednes-
day Morning.

Especial to The Herald-Republican)
ReXburg, Ida Dec. 15.-What is
thought to have been an effort to hide
robbery was the burning a 80 o'clock
this morning of the City drug store
The building was totally destroyed
and the stock was ruined. 1t was
partly insured. The theory of robbery
is given basis from the fact that there
was no way the building could have
caught fire except from incendiary
action, and other suspicious circum-
stances substantiate the theory.
The store was owned by J. c. Worse
who was entertaining a party of friends
in a nearby cafe at the time of the
fire. James A. L. Jacques recently
opened a jewelry store in a part of the
building, and his loss, together with
that of the druggist, viii reach sew
eral thousand dollars
The volunteer fire department did
heroic work and prevented a general
conflagra ton.
