UNBELIEF.

There is no unbelief
whoever plants a seed beneath the sod,
And waits to see it push away the clod
Trusts he in God.
Whoever says, when clouds are in the sky;
BE patient, heart light breaketh by and by, -
Trusts the Most High.
Whoever sees, meath winters field Of snow,
The silent harvest of the future grow,
Gods power must know,
Whoever lies down on his couch to sleep,
content to lock each sense in slumber deep,
Knows God viii keep.
Whoever says: Tomorrow" THE I'm.
known"
The Future" trusts that power alone
He danes disoWn.
The heart that looks on when the eyelids close,
And dares to live when life has only woes
Gods comfort knows.
There is no unbelief
Ana day by day, and night unconsciously,
Inc heart lives by that faith the lips deny
God knoweth why.

there is as marked difference in the
natural tendency of young children.
Infants OF the same parentage and ted
at the same breast will differ IN this
respect, and both be healthy. Fat
laid on at the rate of "ftty pounds a
year" is quite another matter and
not not liable, we take it, to be a
common cause of anxiety Injudi-
cious feeding is not apt to show itself
in lack of fat, and lack OF proper mus.
cular tissue as well. That sort OF
leanness Is much too common in
young humanity.

take long to cook them, and there
are some small ones in a paper bag

the largest, slice thin, and fry them
with the steak. Get anything else

that the smell of the onions would
be almost unbearable to me, but |

Captured.

Last evening Sheriff John w
Turner, of UGah County, and Mr.
Fowler came to THE city with mar
named Mathis. In March lasl
Mathis was indicted in the Second
Judicial District of this territory on q
charge of numbering, or assisting 10
the murder of one "Dutchy," at
Desert Springs, for which same ofiense
Ben Tasker, who has since escaped,
was last summer tried at Beaver and
found guilty. TIE charge is that
Mathis abe tied TEsker in the murder;
and the belief lie partially founded on
the knowledge that Mathis has been
considerably connected with Ben
Tasker for some time past in the
latter's cattle and other operations
Mathis has kept shady since the
finding ofthe indictment and during
the trial OF Tasker, and is reported to
nave made threats that he would
never be taken alive. 1t was learned
that he was at his home, about three
miles from Fountain Green, Sanpete
County, some time ago, and Sheriff
rnrner, in whose hands the warrant
was placed for service, started out
with a pose OF men, among whom
was Mr.. Fowler. They arrived at
Fountain Green, on Wedr esdsy, and
remained quiet q couple OF days en-
desVorins to decoY Mathis out,
but be remained at home. Taking
advantage Of q snow storm they
made hasty run to his place and
arrived at his house before he was
aware OF it, and TOOK refuge near the
barn. Mathis discovered the posse
just as they were leading their hor SEES
behind the barn, and he entered bis
house and went up stairs with
couple of 45-calibre pistols and a
double.barrelled shotgun. After
some preliminary arrangements re-
garding q sortie had been made, in
which Mr.. Turner told his men that
il Mathis began to shoot they were to
run for the barn, the party started
for the house. No shots we're fred
and Sheriff Turner twice knocked
before the door was then opened.
He asked Mrs. Mathis for her bus
band and she said he was not home
and had not been for TWO days. The
children were questioned and they
also answered that they had not seen
their father for two days. Sheriff
Turner then turned to the woman
and said "He's in the house and Pm
going to find him." To which the
woman responded, Then hunt for
him." He told her to take the chill
dren and make lively tracks for the
barn, which she did. Then he called
on Mathis and told him be had a
warrant for him; he had to call twice,
and threatened to pull the house
down if he did not come out. Mathis
be would and the sheriff
and his men withdrew. One OF them |
went to one part OF the house, where
there wac a crack, and put the pistol
through, ard was where he could |
see the man they wanted when be
came down. Mathis entered the
lower room with both pistols in bis

Business at Last.

On Saturday. David Jenkins, the
slayer of John Borlase. was arrested
at his home, West Jordan, by Deputy
Marshal Stevenson, and brought to
this city. 1t will be remembered
tibet day or two after the shooting,
which occurred at Sandy, some weeks
sgo, Jenkins had a sort OF prelim
'4nary examination before Justice oil
the peace, and was discharged. His
release created not a little indigna-
ton in the community, which was
much intensified by the death oil
Borlase. There was a quite pro-
nounced demand that fuller investi-
CATION be made of the affair, the feel
ing being that the justice had erred
in turning the man loose. The war
rant for the late arrest of Jenkins was
issued by Commissioner Sprauge, be.
fore whom the accused was taken
yesterday afternoon, when the
examination was entered upon.
Three witnesses for the prosecution
were examined - Nelson, B. w.
briggs and Con. Sullivan. The testi.
mony OF the first named was psrticu-
larry damaging to the accused, being
directly opposed to the seli-deiense
theory upon which the former release
had been granted. The defendant
introduced no evidence, but obtained
postponement of the hearing until
Saturday at 8 pm. when his witnesses
will be in attendance. 1t seems to be
only question of whether the &C.
cused SHOULD be admitted to bail, or
committed without bond to await the
action of the grand jury. His sttor-
nsy is Arthur Brown, Esq, the
