Same food, same home, same care but some grow big and strong while others stay ismall and weak. * * Scott's Emulsion offers an 'easy way out of the difficulty. Child weakness often means starvation, not because of lack of food, but because the food does not feed. Scott's Emulsion really feeds and gives the child growing strength. Whatever the cause of weakness and failure to grow? Scott's Emulsion seems to find it and set the matter right. Send for free sample.

L ?ke Cily, March 30, Speria':? On last Thursday two .Mormon alders got in o trouble some five utiles below here at Mr A 0 Stewart's. There was so much excitement over this affair and so many different and conflicting reports have gone out about it I hat we f iel constraiue 1 to give an account somewhat in detail. The names o! the two Mormons are Albeit 11 Olpin and George I) Bertoeh. Thursday morning it was noticed by Mr Ebenezer Jaskins and Bertoch 'hat Oipin r .... ,i... was act ins: queeriy. j-#a?ei m mc iav the (wo elders started down lhe road. Seme distance from Mr Stewart's Olpin put Lis grip in he road and sat down bv the road. \ negro bov came uioug in a vagon, who was told by Oipin tot to drive over the grip. As 0011 as he had passed O pin darted after him on the run, cryng to the boy to give up the grip, lite boy did not Lave it at all.)! deitoeh followed with the grip I ind his own baggage. iV*hen )ipin reached Mr Stewart's liouse Mr S was at work in a field some iistance from the house and Mrs Stewart and daughter, Miss Emily rere tile only persons at or near he house.) he darted in and denawded of Mrs Stewart: "Why Ij?ln*l yon stop that villain vith my ?rrijGet out of here! ['his my house!" About this time diss Emily jutuped out of a winlow in the rear ol the house and tartfcd across the field. O pin rent after her. Bertoch, who %'as hi the road some little disance below the house, seein?? that was iromg on, asked .Miss thinly, "where can I ^et some>ody to help me with litis man?" She answered tint tiie men were iway in the lie! is, an 1 went icfoss the field as last as she ould run with Olpin siller her nil lilt, Bertoch rin across Hie ieJd diagonally for the purpose, is was aiterwards learned, ol etching and stopping 0!j?in, but 0 one at a distance it seemed as f bo'fi were alter Miss E iiiiv. 3erlocii overtook Olpin and grap1 ed with him and forced him to e ground. Just before Bertoch eached Oipiu the commotion had it traded the attention oi Mr E ? Floyd, w ho was at work near by, tnd he came up soon after Olpin vms forced down. Soon, thereatter diss Emily's tailier came up. Not ; no wing anything of Ulpin's menal freaks, and understanding rom what he gathered in the exdtement that lhe*e men were running his daughter and with what object we leave the reader !o infer, he was terribly enraged *nd with fi">ts and feet laid into both the elders who were on the ground, Bertoch on Olpin. Ber* j u... (OCll aliempieu lO explain, uui believing as he did, Mr Stewart could not listen and this belief was certainly under the circumstances excusable and natural. To both Mr Stewart and Mr Floyd the affair appeared in the same light. A ft?;r Bertoch received two or three terrible blows he fied and when last seen by the others was making a record breaker through the woods. 01 pin was beaten badly. liis skull bone was exposed in more than one place. He was then lied and brought to Lake City. On the way here he used used some extremely insulting language to a young lady whom he passed. Mr Stewart narrated the affair as he understood it and it created considerable excitement. Olpin's wounds were dressed by Dr S B \V Courtney and he was taken in charge bv the magistrate. A warrant having been issued, an officer went in search of Bertoch. ' . ' " rr;~ ' V' dSWMMMMMKMMMlMWMIIIflM He was nn-.i coming i<? Lake City. A preliminary was held by Mails'rae Baldwin. In the mean lime a statement of the afiair wa.? irtven by Mrs Stewart and Miff-1 Kmily. which statement put the, matter in an entirely liflferenl Light. The magistrate discharged Bertoch, nothing criminal being Inn ml against hint and the eviI'lpnrc that Olpin was insane wa* so strong that the magistrate sent him in jail In lie turned over to tiie probate Jiuljje lor exam u1tion lor Innacv. We have not atlenij ted tn give every del ail, hot have been a: pains to iiive a correct statement vvMli an earnest desire to put even bodv connected with 'lie unfortunate affair in the profier liylil No one can attach any blame to either Mr Floyd or Mr Stewart in the eireninstances. "1 he wotidei is that Mr Stewart Stopped where | he did. Any man with a spark ol manhood in him would piotect his daughter and the beaiinir he iraveO pin would not have satisfied most men. ISert ^-h'.s conduct d serves no censure. And if Oipin was elemented ? and it seems that lie was?lie should not nimiJied as a criminal, if he "" 1 - not cr.-zv, then the Ia\v >liotild be vindicated.
