Tho Doctor reports re-ports conditions entirely too congested there for comfort. Says they were unnblo to get any accommodations nt all in Los Angeles, but obtained tent accommodations down on the water front. The present outlook, according to Health Officer Bergstrom, is thnt the emergency influenza hospital mny be dispensed with about Sundny evening. Like the ono established at the B. A. C. lost winter, it has Served a splendid splen-did purpose, with 100 recoveries credited to its record. , In tho midst of tho excessive costs of all kinds of food stuffs nnd necessities, neces-sities, it is refreshing to noto nt lenst one esscntinl commodity thnt hns declined de-clined Bomowhnt. We refer to butter, which is manufactured within the county. The retail price at present is Cfic. as against CCc. per pound for tho winter. Whether or not tho decline is due to the starting of green pns-turcagc, pns-turcagc, we are not advised, but it seems probable that this is the case At any rate, the man who buys appreciates ap-preciates even this small relief, whether wheth-er the fellow who sells does or not. Mayor Arch Swapp and Mrs. Swnpp returned from their trip north nnd into southern California Wednesday. Mrs'. Swapp, in tho interest of whose health the California trip was taken, is feeling much better. Tho lndy is a sufferer from asthma and rheumatism rheuma-tism and the mild California climate agrees with her splendidly. It wns tho intention to leave her there for n few weeks, but lenrning of tho influ-enzn influ-enzn situation here nnd fearing that it might invndo their family, Mrs. Swapp insisted on returning with her husband. They report everything inviting in-viting nnd benutiful now in eouthcrn California. Dr. Geo. W. Middleton of Snlt Lako City paid another visit to Cednr City this week, arriving horc Wednesday afternoon and returning' Thursdny. Tho Doctor's mission hero was to perform some difllcult surgical operations, opera-tions, including the rcmovnl of the prostrate gland for Thomas S.

Leigh nnd S. J. Foster, which was sent to investigate modern hotel nnd bnnk buildings, nnd which visited Snlt Lnko City, Portland, Snn Francisco nnd Los Angeles, were ox-pectcd ox-pectcd homo yesterday nftornoon but fnilcd to nrrive. Tho return of Cnsh-ier Cnsh-ier Foster is cspccinlly imperative on account of the serious illness of Mrs. Foster, who is suffering from influ-epzn-pncumonin. It Is learned thnt the pnrty got stuck in tho mud with the cur that was bringing them in nnd had to walk some distnnco to the Snr-ver Snr-ver ranch, from which station they phoned in for assistance. E. M. Carry sent his car nnd they nrrived here nt three o'clock this morning. Lnst Tuesdny night or enrly Wednesday Wed-nesday morning tho long transmission transmis-sion lino of tho Dixio Power Company between Central nnd this plnco got into trouble and it wus neccssnry to suspend service. All day Wcdnesduy scouting pnrties wero out from vnr-ious vnr-ious points along tho line but failed to discover tho trouble. "Yesterday morning tho senrch wns renewed, but not until '1 o'clock in tho afternoon did tho lights renppenr. In tho mean time Tho Record's typesetting mn-chine mn-chine nnd mnny other mnchincs in the city were silent nnd inactive, and the issue this week is seriously delayed de-layed ns a consequence. By night work wo nro doing nil we can to regain re-gain tho lost time, nnd we trust our rondors will henr with us, if tho pnper is a day Into, ns it probnbly will be. A lond of good husky ho pnssen-gcrs pnssen-gcrs is tho mnin esscntinl to putting n pnssenger car over the rond between be-tween this plnco nnd Lund at the present pres-ent time, Tho roads nro so bad in plncos thnt the cars ride on the center cen-ter of tho rond nnd the wheels can got no traction. Then it is up to tho pnssongers to get' out and push tho enr through tho mud hole. Nonr Lund it is simply a lako of water, nnd nenrly everything hns to be handled on that end of tho road with teams. Tho mail contractor is about the sickest sick-est mnn in tho county. Such a state of roads hns not existed for several years here. I Lnht week Aunt Johnnna Pnlmor, met with nn unfortunate nnd pain- ful accident, falling nnd breaking ono of her ribs. To mnko the affair all tho more distressing sho contracted influenza with tho rest of tho household house-hold nnd hns been enduring a doublo shnro of discomforture. Withnl this, sho hns exhibited wonderful fortitudo and only romnincd in bed for a dny! or two, preferring to get about or sit up in her chair. Sho is now over tho "flu" and her injury is slowly im- proving. |
