Beans, potatoes and other tender vegetables have been nipped by frost in some parts of Logan during the cold nights we have had this week. The general monthly priesthood meeting of the stake was held last Saturday in the Tabernacle. Also a meeting of the Board of Trade on Monday. A grade has been made along Third Street passing the residence of President Preston. This will make the place more passable for vehicles during the wet season. A rumor was circulated to the affect that a conductor and a fireman on the railroad had engaged in a shooting affray, which on inquiry proved to be unfounded. Now is the time for working poll tax and the supervisors of roads are using the labor thus supplied in making necessary improvements in the county thoroughfares. The dramatic club are making some improvements in the Logan Hall, with a view to making it a more suitable place in which to present a performance to the public. Our furniture dealers, Jenkinson Bros. came out with an announcement of their business. A new stock has just been received at their establishment, give them a call. We have had enough stormy and cloudy weather this week to keep the air cool and retard the growth of crops, but not enough to do much good in dampening the ground. The agents of the Fairmount Nurseries, Kansas, are doing the valley. Look out for them and if you want anything in their line, you may depend on good treatment from the company. Jones & Jenkins have received a fine supply of Gents' Furnishing Goods, including white and fancy dress shirts, underwear, handkerchiefs, collars, ties, socks, etc. je11-lt.

Cardon, Esq., has for sale at his art gallery, a well selected stock of watches, clocks, jewelry, spectacles, chromes, Berlin Wool, and fancy articles in variety to suit the most fastideous [fastidious] person. Bro. C.D. Fieldstead's wife has lately been suffering from a stroke of paralysis, being unable to speak or move herself for some time.

An ascent of more gradual grade leading to the Temple block, will be substituted for the steep and narrow passage of times past. The missionary ball given last Friday evening in aid of Elder John McAlister was a grand success both socially and financially. An interesting feature was the blank engagements in connection with the programme of dances introduced by the committee. An incipient runaway at the foundry. A gentleman attempted to attach a span of horses to a new buggy but one of the animals decided to take his departure before the mate was fairly hitched. The result was a broken single-tree, but no other damage. J.H. Brown & Son have been getting out a monument to John B. Kimball late of the firm of Kimball & Lawrence of Salt Lake city. It is now nearly completed and will be a beauty. Several of our citizens having expressed a desire to see it set up before it is taken to its destination, the makers desire to state that the monument will be set up an on exhibition next Monday at their shop. Robt. Croft, Esq., the master mechanic of the U. & N. Ry. [Railway] is having the smoke stacks of the engines on the road replaced by the fire exterminators which are of larger dimensions than the stacks which have been in use and are said to be very successful in extinguishing the sparks from the engines. This will make the danger of fire setting a thing of the past. Mr. Isaac Jorgansen, partner to W.T. Jones, Esq., while working at the Pioneer Drug Store the other day had the misfortune to cut with his hatchet a gash in his leg. The wound was two or three inches long and penetrated to the bone.

A certain crowd of young men and boys, during the meetings of the revivalists in the Presbyterian meeting room last week, we are sorry to say, assembled in front of the door and by the noises they made disturbed the services, even going to far to shout and throw stones at the door. This was very wrong indeed, and the offending ones deserve the full penalty of the law for such conduct. A great improvement has been made at "Our Meat Market" - in the shape of putting in lattice work in the windows both at front and rear. This gives a free circulation to the air, and will aid materially in keeping meats fresh and cool. Messrs. [Messieurs] Edmund and John Paul, who are about to establish themselves permanently as carpenters and builders, did the work; and it reflects credit on them as mechanics. |
