A meeting was held in Richfield recently by representative farmers of Sevier county when it was deoided to organiza a farmers union. A number of cattle, are reported as dying on Green river from the severe weather, while many sheep are said to be perishing on the White river ranges. William Baker, aged 15, was caught in the machinery of the finishing room of the Provo woolen mills, where he was at work, and had hla arm badly lacerated. Tbe Arrapine Commercial Club has just been organized at Mantl. The object of the organization is to promote the material interests of the Temple City, socially and otherwise. The ward meeting house at Jensen was destroyed by fire last week. It is thought that the fire resulted from the carelessness oi the janitor la not properly attending to his duties. The safe in the oflice of the Pelt Lumber company, Salt Lake City, was blown open by burglars, presumably amateurs, one night last week. Only one dollar and an old rusty pistol was taken. Austin M. Brown of Salt Lake City will probably lose his leg as the result of his falling off a wagon containing a 4,000 pound load, the w heel passing over his leg, crushing it in a terrible manner. Chief of Police Paul of Salt Lake City has handed in his resignation, which has been accepted. Failure of of tbe chief to agree with the city administration regarding Sunday closing and gambling is said to be the cause for the resignation. s in the vicinity of Lund are very anxious about their flocks this winter. The winter has been extremely cold and the snow so deep on tbe desert that they are compelled to range their (locks In the hills, where Sheep-owner- feed is very scarce. Salt William Krogh, a Lake boy, while cleaning a target gun which be hud purchased but a few hours before, shot himself in the forehead, death resulting Instantly. It appears the little fellow had forgotten to remove the cartridge from the gun. A panic almost occurred at one of the public schools at Salt Lake City last A boy gained access to the week. building and shouted fire up the cold air pipes leading to several of the rooms. A stampede was averted by the principal announcing a false alarm. John B. Glenz of Salt Lake City suicided last week by taking a dose of carbolic acid. A short time ago Glenz, wbo it appears comes from a good family, married a woman of tbe tenderloin district, and the two quarreled, when Glenz took the fatal dose. Dan Collier, a young man of Naples, met death in a peculiar manner last week. While chopping down a tree it became lodged tn another, and climb-lu- g It to release It from lodgment, he lost his balance, and falling a distance of thirty feet, was fatally injured. Mrs. A, P. Mayberry attempted suicide in Salt Lake City Sunday morning by swallowing an ounce of laudanum and severing an artery in her wrist. Her condition was discovered by friends in time to save her life. Domestic troubles are said to have been the cause. Ben F. Sparks of Ephraim baa beet brought homo from the west desert suffering from a dislocated shoulder blade. He was herding sheep when the accident happened. lie was alone with th sheep, and assistance did not reach him fora period of eight days. Since the bounty has been plaoed upon rabbita In Sevier county a great number of the bunules have been slain Recently In a contest between Redmond parties over 600 were slaughtered. A great many rabbits are being killed by individuals for the bounty. The report comes from Kantrra that on account of the extremely cold weather cattle are dying and the loes la heavy. At Bellevue, thirteen bead of cattle are reported to have been frozen to death In one corral Indications point to a heavy loss of stock. The proprietor of the City drug store of Sprlngvllle, who has so long and successfully thwarted the attempts of the o nicer to convict him for violation of the prohibitory liquor ordinance, has again been brought into court upon compiatnt of a former patron. NEW NAVAL AND COALING TIONS. STA- - SMOOTS CREDENTIALS PRESENTED TO SENATE AND FERRED TO COMMITTEE. Uncle Sam 8ecures Guantanamo and Bahia Honda, on Cuban Coast President Roosevelt has signed the agreement drawn up under tbe terms of the Platt amendment, providing for the acquisition by the United States of a naval station at Guantanamo and a coaling station at Bahia Honda, both In Cuba. The document had been signed by President Palma and was brought to Washington by Minis-te- r Squlers. It does not specify the price of the properties to be acquired by the United States, and this detail Is left to be settled by the usual legal condemnatory proceedings after the navy department has decided exactly the amount of land it wishes at each place. With these two places properly fortified as naval bases, the Gulf of Mexico would not be possible of occupation by a hostile fleet, and tbe Caribbean sea would be unsafe for an enemy. At Guantanamo there will be erected extensive coal docks, and perhaps a short line railroad to connect the port with the backbone railroad already finished by private enterprise. Bahia Honda will for some time probably be used simply as a place for the storage of coal. Feb. St, loot m second-clanmatter, Portillo U uh Act o! Coagreaa of Mai ch t, RESERVOIRS FLOOD TOWN.
