There isn't one in the county, in which to deposit our superabundant wealth. <br><br> NELSON IMPEY, Esq., came up from Salt Lake on Saturday last, and remained in town several days. <br><br> WHEN parents lake little children into public assemblies, would not other means serve as well as peanuts to amuse and keep them quiet? <br><br>' THE officers of the Normal Institute are endeavoring to arrange for some evening lectures, open to the public, to be given during its session. <br><br> OUR country friends came in to attend conference, in great numbers. Rustic youths and maidens greatly admired the gorgeous show bills of Cole's circus. <br><br> ON MONDAY last, Mr. Alexander, of the 5th ward bench, showed us some nice apples, raised on his place, the first ripe ones we have seen in Logan, this year. <br><br> B. H. GODDARD, Esq., the enterprising young book-binder of Ogden, came up on Saturday morning last, purposing to visit Logan and vicinity, including the canyon. <br><br> THE thermometer has indicated that the temperature, from one to two o'clock p. m. for several days past, has ranged from 92 to 101 degrees, 95 being about a fair average. <br><br> THE locomotive, "Idaho" has been in the machine shop for nearly three months undergoing extensive repairs. She will be ready for the road this week and will be almost as good as new.<br><br> FOUR indians are working on the Temple, and are very industrious. They mix and carry mortar, handle the stone, &c., and have a thorough realization of the objects for which the building is being erected. <br><br> A PORTRAIT of Gen. James A. Garfield in the August number of the Phrenological Journal, might almost be taken for a likeness of our honored citizen, Prest. [president] Wm. [William] B. Preston, so striking is the resemblance. <br><br> A GENTLEMAN from Beaver Dam, the small settlement in the divide between this and Salt Lake Valley, informs us that the place is growing steadily if not rapidly, and that it is the intention to erect a school house there this fall.<br><br> [line missing/unreadable] die and [line missing/unreadable] there is strayed away from his parents who had come from Mink Creek to attend the conference, and were camping in the Tithing office yard. The little fellow only five or six years old, was lost for several hours, much to the concern of his parents, who at length recovered him at about ten o'clock in the evening. <br><br> PREST. [PRESIDENT] TAYLOR, with Elder Erastus Snow, and some other members of the party that accompanied him to Logan, went to Bear Lake on Monday last, for the purpose of attending the quarterly conference to be held at parts on Saturday and Sunday next. Elder George Q. Cannon with several other members of the party, returned to Salt Lake Monday. <br><br> NOTICE is hereby given to the superintendents, choir leaders, and singers of the Sunday schools of the Stake, that a meeting for the purpose of preparing for the coming Jubilee will be held until further notice on the last Saturday of each month in the Logan Tabernacle, commencing at 11 o'clock a. m. It is earnestly desired that all who have an interest in the matter will be present. <br><br> THERE was a fire last Friday evening on the island. Cause, the usual combination of a match with a small boy. Result, the destruction of a shed, chicken coop, &c., belonging to A. Skankey. Loss, fifty or sixty dollars. Brother Skankey is now on a mission, and the loss, which would be light to many, is, under existing circumstances, somewhat serious to his family, and a subscription has been taken up to replace the property destroyed. <br><br> WE congratulate the Saints of Smithfield on the selection, as their Bishop, of Elder Geo. [George] L. Farrell, a man of wide experience, superior intelligence, and strict integrity. We believe that he will quickly win the confidence, respect and love of all the Saints in his diocese. In this respect Smithfield's gain is Logan's loss, for we shall greatly miss the presence and labors in our midst, of one so well known and highly esteemed as is Elder Farrell. Our heartiest good will and best wishes attend him in his new field, and we sincerely wish him every joy and success in his labors therein<br><br> THE operetta, in three acts, by Evan Stephens, Esq., which is to be produced in Logan on Saturday night of this week, entitled, "The May Queen," has been pronounced by competent cities who have attended the rehearsals, to be a very beautiful entertainment. Aside from its intrinsic merits, we think it ought to be well patronized, as it is a home production entirely, and the author should receive hearty encouragement in his new departure. Every strain of the music, as well as the words, are entirely original, and we hope the author's venture will prose a splendid success. We believe it is the first attempt at placing upon the stage in Utah, an original operetta, written by a home author, with perhaps a single exception, that of the "Loves of Wolverstein," produced some time ago at the Salt Lake Theatre. |
