Kimball, was one of the noble women of the earth. She was dearly loved by his wives and children as well as by all who intimately knew her. Too little has been said of her exemplary life. She was a ministering angel to those in dis-tress, ver. ready to aid those less fortunate in the comforts of life. She never seemed .so happy as when seeking to make others happy. Every year it was her custom to invite all the family to her table and insist that it was her privilege to wait upon and make them happy and comfortable. In iier.last sickness she expressed her-regre- he fin. ; voting The insurgents by delegations. fought the adoption of the report as submitted, demanding that the convention vote as a unit instead of by delegations. They won out because the machinists were not in evidence when the motion was n put. The temporary organization was made permanent. The platform was read by Jos. eph A. Smith.

Kimball said: - The'two Republican members, of the board of county commissioner bumped -- right up against that prohibition question again on Saturday, when they met in Recently the regular session. Supreme Court of the state that the commissioners have the power to refuse to issue liquor licenses if they so desire and the ti nipt ranee committee therefore called on the commissioners and asked them to refuse to grant any more licenses and to revoke the licenses of such as have obtained them until the end of the year; in other words to close down the saloons of the county at once, as most of the licenses expired on October 1. The commissioners were not surprised- at this ction as they had received warning .that this request-1"- ' would be made, but nevertheless Mr. Allen sought to prevent action then you see it would be jtad to show their hand just a &w days in advance of the holding of, the Republican convention.

Boyle and Willmore of this city, who hold a license until the end of the year, have been cited in to show cause why their license should not be revoked and their money rede-cided - turned. - John 1 Israelsen presented his resignation as teamster at the poor farm and the superintendent was authorized to fill his place.

Gifir' stride. When they didstrike it, however, thFvtook' the" ball along at a great iate, scoring the firj touchdown in one and a half minutes. Th,cie was a lot of wrangling-ithe game, due in the main to the new rules, which to say the least are confusing, to old players in particular. Coach Brown of the Ogden team, insisted that he. did not get a fair show in fact he talked of being robbed of the game. That last assertion of course is all buncombe, for his men cannot hope io beat - the While mistakes may Aggies. have been made in some of the decisions one thing is certain, and that is there was no deliberate attempt to do his team any injustice and his holler does not look sportsmanlike. The game was rather slow and ragged in the first two periods, for now you must know we have four quarters in the game instead of two halves as formerly. The Aggies could not get together and finally the Ogdens obtained the ball on the 25 yard, line and Moran decided to try for a field goal. He had to kick at a very difficult angle, but he negotiated the kick beautifully and the score stood 3 to 0 against the farmers. This woke them up and after the ball was kicked-of- f again they waltzed it down the field and over the line-ia minute and a half, Crookston carrying the ball over. Brossard goaled nicely. After an exchange of kicks after the next kick-ofthe Aggies got the ball on .the 25 yard line and soon pushed it over, Crookston again taking the ball across the line. In the last period, after a good deal of kicking, the Aggies tried the forward had not been working very well, and Jones made a beautiful catch and went over the line for the third touchdown, Elifler Bros-sarthe quarterback, goaleJ each time, and That made the score 18 to 3, The Ogden- - boys, while tVy played a hard game, were unable to make any grouqd against the Farmers, and almost invariably had to kick. Once Evans, the r half-bacbroke through for a five twenty yard gain, but that was the only spurt they made-They played a good defensive game and several times held for downs. Once the ball was within a few inches of a touchdown, but the high sehoot lads held it there and took it awayym downs. Once before that the Aggies carried the ball over e for a touchdown, but an penalty was enforced and the ball taken back. Then the Ogdens held for downs and getting the ball, kicked out of danger.
