THE BROAD AX.
SPECIAL NOTICE.
On Monday, January 27, while
our office Devil was wandering
around the Rio Grande Western
depot like a bob-tailed dog at a fair,
he was unlawfully siezed by Con
ductor J. M. Morris and Yardmas
ter Rhodes, and they hustled the
Old Nick on board of the 1:30
train, which was bound for Salina.
Conductor Morris telegraphed to
all stations along the lime that he
had on board a rial lire Devil, and
all would have an opportunity to
see him by paying ten cents. He
collected about $200 dollars from
the open-mouthed crowds along the
road. He would not share any cf
the money with the old maa, and
when the train arrived at Salina he
put the old boy off. But when Con
ductor Richmond heard how Con
ductor Morris had deceived the old
fellow, and whea he learned that we
stood pat with Traffic Manager
Babcock and General Passenger
Agent Wadleigh he returned us to
this city, and that is the reason the
Broad Ax is so late in reaching its
many readers this week. A full
account will appear in the next
issue of the Broad Ax of how the
people of Sanpete Valley treated
our office DcviL
READERS OP THE BROAD AX.
KAYSVILLE.
On Jan. 23rd, we made a trip to
the above little city, where we
found a number of new readers of
the Broad Ax: We mention the
followiug gentlemen, all of them
are warm friends and readers of
the Broad Ax.
Hon. John R. Barnes, mayor
Thomas H. Philips, Geo. W.

councilor, J. B Jarman, city coun
cilor, Bishop Barton.
THOMAS HUMPHREY,
Manager for M. E. Mulvey and
Co., is one of our best citizens.
He has been with the above firm
a number of years and they have
always found him honest, trust
worthy and reliable. Mr. Hum
phrey is a friead ead reader of the
Broad Ax, and he thinks our paper
has done more towards freeing the
minds of the colored people than
any other paper in the West. He
says that he is free and the g. o. p.
does not own him simply because
he is a colored men.
R. E EGAN.
R.E. Eoavv member of the low
er house from Davis county, is a
very pleasant gentlemai to meet.
He is a hard worker and one of the.
party leaders in the house. He is
a reader of the Broad Ax, and
he is of the opinion that the colored
people must divide on party lises
before they can reasonably expect
to receive the recognition which
they are entitled to. He is greatly
pleased to see that so many of the
bright colored men are lcaviag the
g. o. p. and joining the democratic
party, the party that will treat them
like brothers. He referred to the
election of the Hon. J. C. Mat
thews as beiag sufficient.proof that
the democratic party are not un
frisadly to the colored race.
The Carattra Basil Era.
The Mohammedans, In their ablations,
replaoo water by sand when neodf nl. ThU
religions practice has. It appears, become
an element of modern therapeutics. At
the reunion of Swiss phyilolans, held this
year at Ouohy, Dr. Sucbard read a paper
on the sand bath. Invalids have been
completely or partially cured by sand heat-
led to a temperature varying, according to
I ik. .. it .i- !,. n
ujd UO0U, uuui o uegiwi mj gu utnos j.
The sand, containing air between Its par-,
tides and being a bad conductor of heat,
transmits it in a gentle and almost insen
sible manner. Perspiration is favored up
to the point where a patient may lose two
quarts of liquid In one sand bath. Thanks
to this evaporation, the invalid may sup
port continued high temperature without
the actual temperature of the body rising
morn than a few degrees, and this without
fear of heart affections, If care bo taken to
put hot sand on the feet at the outset.
The number of aliments that may bo
treated by this powerful curative agent is
considerable. In the first place, it is espe
cially beneficial to chronlo rheumatism
and to gout. Neuralgia and sciatica are
oared or benefited by local or general
baths. The most various organic troubles
of the nervous system, cardiac or digestive
affections, have been treated by this meth
od, sometimes with remarkable success.
The same is true of tuberculous affections
of the bones and joints. The account
given by Dr. Suchard contains statistical
tables relating to more than 100 patients
annually. Cosmos.

Sua Salvador.
San Salvador is built on a volcano. It
baa been three times destroyed by an
earthquake, but the people are becoming
accustomed to such occurrences. Earth
quakes are pretty frequent, and while
one is naturally very nervous there is
really little danger to life. The shocks
have been known to come as frequently
as 80 times in an hour.
Since the war of 1812 the United
States army has by no means enjoyed
the life of luxurious ease sometimes at
tributed to it, for, in the intervening
years, it has fought 640 battles or ac
tions with the Indians.
The state of Iowa is so far from being
wholly agricultural that it has 69, 174
persons engaged in its factories, whose
annual output is 1125,049,188.
