Show LOCALISMS. WE believe that not much hay was injured by the late rains. SOME one fired a firearm not far from the Co-op. last Sunday evening. THE scarcity of idlers in our town is a most creditable feature. IT rained during Saturday night, and copious showers fell on Sunday. T HE Hyrum U. O. prides itself a good deal on the cheese produces. THERE is a steady upward tendency in the wages of mechanics in this county. SATURDAY was the liveliest day witnessed in Logan for a long time, but Monday was quiet. DURING this month, Logan has had and is to have an unusual amount of amusement in the theatrical line. A YOUNG man and a little boy, riding a horse on Third street last Friday, were both thrown off. Neither was hurt. The horse ran back to its stable. IT is believed that the heated term is over in this valley, and cool nights and moderate weather during the day are predicted for the rest of the summer. THE hay crop is very good this year, much better than usual. More hay has been taken to the tithing office in Logan this year, than ever before at a corresponding date. FRED TURNER, ESQ., manager of Zion's Board of Trade, went to Montana last Saturday, where he has a railroad outfit at work. He is expected to return next Thursday. CARDON & THATCHER received two carloads of fine furniture yesterday, including some tapestry chairs, cradles, and a large safe for jewelry, the largest, it is believed, in the county. FIVE years ago a one-fourth interest in the Gagnon mine at Butte was transferred in payment of a board bill of $30. For that interest $150,000 was refused less than a month ago.-Helena Herald. IT is very difficult to pump or draw all the water out of many of the wells in the central part of town, as they are fed by such a copious stream that the water flows in nearly as fast as it can be pumped out. THE DeMoss family concerts are spoken of by the press of this western country as being of a high character and the members of the troupe as possessing remarkable musical powers. They will give one of their entertainments in Logan Theatre tomorrow evening. See adv. THE Logan Fire Department is in a comatose state, and it may take a good hot fire to wake it up. As long as the erection of inflammable frame buildings is allowed in the business centre of the city, we ought to have a good, lively, energetic and well equipped fire department. BISHOP Pitkin of Millville was kicked by a horse on the front of the right thigh about two months ago, and has been lame from the injury ever since. He is able to be around, but suffers more inconvenience from the hurt now than when it was first done. We trust he will take an early turn and recover. LAST Saturday morning, officer Everill brought a young man before Alderman Cummings on a charge of disturbing the peace the night previous, in a grocery store on Third street. The defendant pleaded guilty and was fined $5 and costs. It don't matter much whether his name is given or not, as it affords but a slight clue to his identity. It was John Smith. ONE of the whisky men of this town, who is under four or five different bonds of appeal from convictions in the police court, left town this morning for the south. Whether he has gone for good or not is a matter more interesting to his bondsmen than to anyone else. If for good it's for the good of the town. ON Saturday evening, as we learn from the Salt Lake Herald, a grand reception was given to the Commission, in the parlors of the Walker Opera House. A great many citizens, embracing all classes, attended and were introduced to the members of the Commission. The reception was a grand and cordial affair, and cannot but have a good effect. |
