Physicians predict fhat frost will s s : ! set in before the disease entirely abates. ! '5 1 I ! j' . ! In the present discussion of Utah affairs j ; , j and the action of Bishop Sharp, the Salt ' f Lake Herald puts one in mind of something ' ' he doesn't think of. ! : ! : Two large planks are torn up from the ! , Black bridge over Jordan, endangering the t i ! life of every person and team crossing it. I Will the county officials see to it? . ; The scaffolding that has for some time past been np in front of the Emporium building is now entirely down, and the structure : shows up as one of the handsomest in the j town. The Butte base ballisls will take iu Wood J ; Hiver on their trip down to Salt Lake, and 1 : just defeat the boys there for a little exercise : preparatory to contending for the honors : : - here. The Denver crack team will arrive here on Wednesday and play a series of games with ; j the Salt Lakers. This will prove the most t , interesting series of the season to the lovers ! ; ; of bas3 ball. t j - ; A number of the telegraph poles along the i ; road to Tooele are reported dpwn, and the ; - wire on the ground in some places. One : I young mm was dragged off from his horse j, and injured by running into the wire. ' The lake bithing was pronounced excel- ; ' - lant by thos3 three Salt Lakars who ven- : tured 'out to Garfield yesterday. Had the I , . . bathing train been run out in the afternoon I 3JJ more would have said the same thing. j An important strike are reported from i'i!.;' Stockton, and this time the ore is 6aid to ' ; f run high in gold. The find is a blind ledge, ; ' j cut by a tunnel, rnn for other purposes, and ! ' : I its extent and richness is not vet known j ; j here. The Chautauqua literary and scientific ; ' v circle will meet for re-organization this 1 i ! i ' evening in the parlors of the Methodist i j ;! . Church, at 7:30 o'clock. All members are i 1 , i requested to be present and to come pre- j,.' j ; pared to send for the Chautauqua text books. I 1 ' , Some good work is being done by the city f ; I on Main Btreet, in front of McKimmins' and i i ' . Boberts & Nelden's, in the way of leveling i i . ; . np the street with pravel. The same .needed ' i : improvements should be extended through- ' out the principal thoronghfares of the town. j : M There was a rumor on the streets to-day i ; hat the Union Pacific employes between I ' ' ' here and Omaha had struck and suspended i' " : all labor. General Freight Superintendent ! ,' j Tebbetts, of this place, savs no truth exists : i . in the statement, and that the D. P. is rnn- i( g j ning all right. : ,)S i Last evening at about 9 o'clock, Mr. J. H. Van Horn's Kentucky-bred pacer died at $ Mulloy fc Paul's stable.- The six-year-old ; fe sixten-hand high bay gelding was familiar ' f . to all Salt Lake, and a very fine roadster. '! i Three surgeons were summoned but no re- ; , 1 lief could be given the animal. ' : A lady's black handsatchel, containing a , ' f ; cold watch and chain and $13 or $14 in , i money, was lost to-day between the Theatre !; 5 and the Eleventh ward schoolhouse. If the i finder will return the same to Mr. Adam Pat- '. terson, or to his residence, corner Sixth East ' i ud Brigham streets, a suitable reward will ; ' f ; be paid. . ' . Many complaints are made against par- ! ties who keep unclean hog pens near the j streets, which send forth a stifling stench these breezy nights. It seems strange that a regard for common decency does not prevent pre-vent such occurrences, and still more singular singu-lar that the city officials neglect to suppress ; all such nuisances. i . Little Hazel, the three-year-old daughter : j 1 f Mr. and Mrs. Frank Jennings, died this i - I l morning at a o'clock, of diphtheria. The i httle sufferer endured all the hardshins of i i . ' the terrible soourge, and in dying has left a large circle of persons acquainted with her, hi Borrow. Mr. and Mrs. Jennings have the I sympathy of many friends. i The Sixth Infantry, which has been en- I . camped on the Weber near Wanship since ) the 25th of Anguel, arrived nt Fort Douglas j to-day, with the exception of Companv F, ; 5 which was dispatched to Evanston at 'the r time of the recent Chinese troubles. The ! I hoys have enjoyed their practical soldier life if- immsnsely. and return to their barracks well satisfied with their out. Prof. B. B. and Madanie Mazzucato Young f have arranged for the enjoyment of the public pub-lic a series of Sunday concerts, to take place m Jenniug's Emporium Hall. The second , Sunday evening in October will mark the t first concert, and the first Sabbath evening 5 of ach month thereafter will witness these i excellent entertainments. The undertaking !i ' is most praiseworthy and in harmony with . ' the refined tastes of the larger cities of the ' ! Union. . . ' . . !! The big'mining suit of the Rising Star ; ' against th Silver Safe, is to be tried at this Ii i ! t;rui of court, says the Butte Town Talk. j A l irge number of leading attorneys are en- i g'Vjed in this case. Stephen DeWblf and Knowles t Forbis. of this cit v, and Judges Bennett and Kirkpatrick, will appear for f the plaintiff, and Hon. W. W. Dixon and Sharp fc Napton and Robinson fc Stapleton, I of Butte, and Sanders & Cullen, of Helena, j for the defendants. 1 ( Mr. l'jha Holey, representing the "Rag j Baby" Comedy Company, called iu at the I . ; ' DeTiocKiT this afternoon, and announced 1 th tt this strong attraction will p ay at the I , S lit Lake Theatre three nights next week, I ; September CJOthj October 1st and 2d. The 5 "R2 B iby" is the latest success of Boston, I where it was played to crowded houses for I , several weeks, and is the work of John Hoit, i author of "A Bunch of Kevs," one of the I 5 ! greatest successes ever brought to Salt Lake. I : j The fact that it is billed here for three j I nights must be taken as an evidence that J r I there is something very "catching" about it. Ill ' . |
