But way up at the tip of Manhattan

often sail over the helpless fielder's
head to land In Tibbet's Brook with a
beautiful splash. On Sunday after
moons a small boy is kept busy diving
on the bank and swimming after balls
when they come to the surface. He
gets a share OF the collection as his
reward.

HURUM NOTES

Hyrum, March 19-The South Cache
towns are trying to organize base
ball league this spring. The league
will include Hyrum, Mendon, Wells
vile, Millville and Brigham City.
Miss Myrtle Johnson and Alta Ham
mond from Logan were guests OF
Miss Izene Hovey, Wednesday evening
at the ball given in the meeting house.
Mr.. George Pitkin is home again.
George has not been home for several
months, during which time he has
been working near Malad, Idaho.
The new county road along Millville
has proven to be such fake, that the
resident people are compelled to haul
gravel to complete the miserable work
which was commenced last fall. We
believe in paying poll tax, but not to
build such roads as the one above
mentioned.
Mr. Randall from Malad, Idaho,
spent Wednesday and Thursday in
Millville buying mich cows.
He was unable to purchase good
cows for less than $50 per head. Mr..
Randall thinks $4,000 is too much for
cows, therefore he left for Smithfield
to see If prices were not quite so
high.
Mrs. Charles Robbins and daughter
spent Thursday in Millville as the
guest of Mrs. Matilda Pitkin.
Mrs. r. w. Adams the nurse, form
ally of the Bulge & Bulge hospital,
is in Millville nursing the child of
Mr.. Martin Olsen.
The twenty acres of land belonging
to the Weaver estate was purchased
by Mr.. Thomas Rose.
The musical entertainment given in
the hall by the Y. M. M. i. A. was
successful in every way.
After the concert the time was de-
voted to dancing. Both young and old
were there for time and when we
all meet and participate a good time
is sure.

an Hour.

A new form of roller skate, the In
vention OF NJ. Louis Marchand.
young French engineer, will shortly
be seen on this side, a large quantity
of them having been imported for the
present season.
These skates, which resemble moth
ing more than miniature bicycles,
weigh 20 pounds each. and work au'
tomatically They have thick pneu'
matte tires and the wheels. OF which
there are two on each skate, are IL
Inches In diameter.
Thirty miles an hour can easily be
made by an inexperienced skater with
these skates. The skate Is clamped
to the shoe. and when the foot Is
raised spring is automatically
wound up around a specially construct
~ gear attached to the rear wheel
When the foot Is put TO the ground
the pressure releases the spring, un
Winds the gear, and revolves the rear
wheel at a great rate, Nearly 900 rev
olutions minute are thus produced.

IF. PETERSON DIES
OF CONSUMPTION
Preston News May Change Hands
Again - Gooch and England to
be at the Helm.

Preston, Idaho, March 19.-Fred Pc
terson of the Peterson & Sons Paint
ing company of this place, formerly OF
Logan, died at their rooms sometime
during last night. For some time he
has been growing weaker through
consumption. He has not been able
to speak above a whisper for several
months. Last night he walked up
stairs alone and was found dead this
morning by his brother John. He is a
bachelor about 80 years old. He will
be buried at Logan Tuesday.
1t is understood here that John o.
Gooch has been in conference with
Charles England, manager of the Lo-
gan journal with the purpose in view
of purchasing part interest in the
Preston News. The idea is that the
paper will be set up and printed in
Logan, the office in Preston will be
closed in so far as actual work Is con-
cerned. For the present the paper is
to be run on non-partisan basis, but
as soon as politics begin to wax
warm 1t will be switched to the Dem
ocratic column. Whether the people
here will like their home paper pub
lished in Utah town or not remains
to be seen. But under the Idaho law
no county or state printing can be
done in Utah. The situation begins to
be somewhat interesting here.

In the higher education lies. unfor

women Of obedience. dependence on
