The treasury surplus this year, at
least would be wiped out by the Pan
anna canal expenditures, which have
been paid from the general fund. Dur

ture amounted to SAL, TAI ,25S and the
final deficit was $500, 1888. Last years

William Moss, the wealthy and sue

Cross, Utah, with immense tracts Of
range in Montana, accompanied by
Stearns and o. p, Hatch of the same
place, was in Cedar City yesterday for
the purpose of picking up a car or
two of local cattle. Mr.. Moss and as
sociates own and range on their own
ground 10000 head of sheep, besides
several hundred head Of blooded cattle,
but still had sufficient good grass go
ing to waste to Craze and fatten a
few more cars of cattle, and believed
there was more money in buying the
common variety of cattle in this coun-
try at the prices asked to grade up
with pure bred animals and to be con
verified into beef, than to purchase
blooded stuff at approximately twice
the price of cattle in this country.
The animals will be placed on the
cars at Lund within a day or two.

MORE BOOKS FOR
LIBRARY SHELVES
Public Contribution Shower to be in
augurated. Library Board
In Charge.

Cedar City book lovers and library
patrons received rare treat in the
visit Of Miss Downey, State Library
Organizer, last Sunday
The lady visited the town in her of
fetal capacity, making an inspection
of our library building and the books
it contains. She addressed the par
ents class of the Cedar wards Sunday
School on Sunday morning, compli-
mented the people on the support they
have given the library movement from
its first agitation in Cedar City, and
stated that now the most important
issue before the people was how to
increase the number of volumes for
the circulating shelves.
1t was thought advisable to appoint
a library day on which everybody who
wished could contribute as many vol
umes as they felt disposed to the
library collection. The appointing of
time and committee to perfect ar
rangements for a public contribution
of books, was left in the hands of the
library board, with the understanding
that the matter be attended to be-
fore the dedication of the building,
which is to take place next fall.
In addition to the public contribu-
ton, the board are formulating plans
to raise snug little sum of money for
the purchase of new books so that it is
expected that by next fall, the number
of volumes now on the shelves will at
least be doubled, which will be very
satisfactory condition considering the
short time that the library has been in
operation.
Miss Downey also gave an instruct
ing and edifying talk before the M. l.
A. Associations Sunday evening, and
expressed a wish to be present at the
dedication of our library building, SO
that she could note the advancement
made during the summer.

LITTLE SUFFERER
LAID TO REST

Kathrine, the little four year old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Thos. Dix
quietly passed away last Tuesday af-
ternoon. She had a very severe
siege of pneumonia during the win
ter, from which she was unable to
rally, and has been an invalid from
its effects the last fourteen weeks.
Empyema recently developed and
though everything possible was done
to counteract its dire effects, the little
frame was unable to withstand the
ravages of the new foe to which she
succumbed as stated.
Funeral services were held in the
tabernacle last Thursday afternoon
at 4 O'clock. Words of comfort and
solace were spoken to the bereavcd
parents, and many beautiful floral
tributes were presented.
The sympathy Of the entire com.
munity goes out to the sorrowing re-
latives in their hour of trial.
