An unidentified man whose body was discovered in the hills overlooking Csrbonville was buried in this city last Monday afternoon after an inquest conducted by J.

The body was found The inaccessibilby a sheepherder. ity of the location of the body makes it the more puzzling. Sheep had fed to where it lay. Becoming frightened they turned back. The herder climlied up aud over the ledge to investigate and diseovered the remains. He reported the finding to Sheriff Thomas F. Kelter. The inquest followed with a verdict of the cause of death unknown. Sheriff Kelter describes the man as being around 30 years of age, height five feet six inches, weight close to a hundred and thirty-fiv- e jwunds and light hair. He wore a blue double breasted cost, grey flannel shirt and summer underwear, blue overalls with black leather belt, black laced shoes (No. 7), black socks, a cap and red woolen gloves. In the of the coat were a shoestring and a bar of Boap. There were no evidences of violence, but the man had evidently died in great agony judging from the condition of the soil where the body lay. The body had lieen there several months in the opinion of those who saw it. Sheltered by a ledge of rock and a large pine tree, it was still quite well preserved. . FROF.

EXPRESS COMPANY TURNED DOWN ON RECENT REQUEST The American Railway Express companys late ap;ilieation before the publio utilities commission of Utah fur iiennissiou to make intrastate increases in express rates on a par with those permitted interstate by the in- terstate commerce commission was de- nied on last Saturday by the public utilities commission of Utah. It found that the company had made no attempt to show that it is not making a on its business transacted in Eirofit and professed its inability to segregate in a satisfactory manner either the business done in this state or in the zone of which Utah forms a part, and which carries the highest express rate of any zone in the nation. Under such a showing, or luck of a showing, the commission holds that it has no al tentative under the Utah law governing the commission except to refuse the increase asked. The case will afford another y for the interstate commerce commission to order the intrastate rate in effect, in spite of the attitude taken by the Utah commission. If it does so it will again raise the question of the right of the federal commission to interfere in matters purely intrastate, a topic whie.h is already being taken before the aupreme court of the United States in connection with railroad rate raises.
