Some people in Logan were surprised at the .selection of I. C. Thoresen ns one of the presidency of the Hyrnm Stake, and a few of them can't abstain from making comments adverse to him. . The people of the Hyrum Stake seem to be perfectly satisfied, however, and at the conference on Monday, Apostle John Henry Smith paid Mr. Thoresen a fine tribute. When Mr. Thoresens name was placed before the conference Bishop Samuel P. Oldham of Paradise voted against sustaining it, and stated that he understood that Mr. Thoresen was not in accord with the church authorities. The latter simply replied that any differences of opinion betweeu him and the church authorities were of a political nature.- Apostle-.Smitthen stated that he had known Mr. Thoresen for many years, that he kuew him to be a leader among men and a man of integrity and uprightness. His remarks were well received by those who know Mr. Thoresen beat his neighbors. h A Runaway. There was a runaway on Main Street that enlivened things in the business section for a few minutes yesterday. A horse attached to a bujgy and belonging to Mrs. Snyder of Benson. broke away from its moorings in front of I). Ii. Roberts and Co.s place of business, and started north at a hot pace. When in front of Janies Quayles store it ran afoul of a buggy belonging to Gob- Smith of the Fifth ward, and carried away one wheel of Smiths vehicle. The runaway continued on until near the end of the block it steered the buggy against an electric light pole and smashed it into kindling wood and scrap iron. A small boy of Henry Krouses of Providence soon put in an appearance, claimed the wreck and asked for the horse r It was pointed out to him. That aint my horse, said lie. lie was assured that the animal referred to was the one that had leen attached to the broken rig. Well, thank it aint my runaway after goodness all, said the youngster, and heaving a big sigh of relief he depu ted. Mrs. Snyder showed up later and obtained her projierty. - r i floodiRg-th'eHtwntt- r- - r w Lynching Lecherous Negro.

The sheriff, with a strong posse, is holding the jiil against all entries, but the mob has become hy restiye- and and an attack is expected. It is said the prisoner will be burned if he is taken. The wildest excitement prevails throughout the city. Merchants closed their stores early, and nearly every male inhabitant has joined the crowd about the prison.
