A Blade reporter appeared on the scene at about 8:30 and found John Eirgan and Mrs. Caroline Bigler holding a council as to the best method of inaugerating and conducting a campaign for the reserection of tbe Nephi Democratic society. Mrs. Bigler profor posed hot water and a broom-stic- k the males, and Mr. Kirgan thought a tea .or quilting would certainly enthuse the sisters; and both were unanimous in the oonclqs ion that it would be first necessary to find the holes into which the officers had evidently crawled, and then smoke them out with ooal tar and old shoes. Presently, the Deputy Registrar strolled in, then came Thomas Ord and then Gus Henriod sr., making a grand total of six- The discusseu of the best method of resureoting the party was suddenly interrupted by the olarion tones of the curfew bell, Mr. Kirgans face aswide expression as sumed a grave-yarhe remarked; that means that the offip cers are now taking a we for home, and might jnst as well go Mr. Henriod moved to adjourn, too. seconded the sign and die.

Some two weeks since d a ten or boy of Mr and Mrs. Robert Pyper was- holding-bi- s baby brother who Is abont seven months old. Another little boy came up andhanded an old shoe and knife to the little fellow who was holding the infant, and requestshoe. ed him ita cut the buttons The little fellow took .the shoe and knife and proceeded to remove the buttons. The knife slipped and struck the baby in the eye. Its screams were pitiful. Dr. .Wilcox was sent for and. an examination convinced him the eye would have to be removed, and, advised that tbe child be taken, to Balt Lake City for treatment, which was done. Mrs. Pyper-- returned last week with tbe little sufferer who will go through life minus an eye. .
