Show DEED OF A DEMON. Sends Iiiferutil Machine to Lawyer and l'r;auii Ortlelal. Salt Lake City, Utah, Aug. 20 Judge O. W. Powers, one of the most prominent promi-nent lawyers of the state, and Warden George N. Dow of the Utah penitentiary, peniten-tiary, were the recipients Saturday night of infernal machines, which it is thought were expressed to them by John Smith, alias James McDonald, an ex-conviet. Smith was sentenced to the penitentiary by Judge Powers a number of years ago, and it is supposed for this reason Smith attempted to take his life. Judge Powers, in opening open-ing the package, discovered it was an infernal machine, and informed the police, who, in tracing up where the package came frotn, discovered that a similar package had been sent to Warden War-den Dow. Both packages were secured se-cured and opened by experts, who discovered dis-covered enough dynamite in each one to have blown up an entire block. A lat-ffe reward has been offered for the arrest of Smith. The packages were expressed from Eureka. |
