The boys in the county offices got good
one on Capt. Murray Myers yesterday: Some
time ago the sheriff of Kingman county
borrowed pair of shackles of Sheriff Fish
er and returned them few days ago. They
were left at the county building and yester-
day the sheriff called for them. They could
not be found, and Hank Heiserman said
Murray took them to put on his horse to
break his hind legs in, SO that he would trot
square. The horse is very nice trotter
with the fore feet, but the hind ones go
hopping along like a jack rabbit Hank
told Deputy Sheriff Derby that probably
Murray had them at headquarters. Soon
after Hank called Murray to the telephone
and trying to initiated ohnDerby's voice said,
'Have you pair of shackles belonging to
our Officer" "WbA is that talking?" said
Capt. Myers. "J6hn Derby" replied the
joker. "Why, John, ] don't know what you
mean" "Why, haven't you pair of our
shackles in use on your trotters" 'No, l
know nothing about them" This ended the
conversation and Murray thought it was all
in earnest.

NELLIE BAILEY's LIFE.

The advanced sheets OF this new book
have just reached us. TIE frontis-piece is
a cabinet photograph of Nellie, the beauti-
full heroine Of the fascinating story whose
great sad eyes greets the beholder with the
"look of hunted deer" The work is
from the hands of the authoress, Mary L.
Jackson, printed on beautifully tinted pa
per and dedicated to Hon. w. Z. Stanley
and his associates, I. b. Wall and j w.

unfortunate, yet brave, right royal, and in
trepid giri-woman. The opening chapters
promise book of the lovliest interest. II

AT HIGH ATTITUDES.
A Trip to the Far-Famed Camp of
Alta.

We need not remind our readers that
this is the heated term; and all old resi-
dents have by experience learned 10 ex-
pect continuation of the hot and arid
atmosphere for many weeks-if not two
or more months-longer. The resi-
dents of Salt Lake City are happily SO
located that they can, if they will, es'
cape the injurious effects of the cheated
term" by temporarily sojourning at the
Lake, in the canyons and mountains,
and numerous other agreeably cool To-
calities. Many persons do not app-e-
ciate and therefore fail TO realize benefit
from these advantages. A recent trip
to Alta, Little Cottonwood Canyon, coL-
yineed us of the fact, that journey
can be made in a few hours, via the d.
& R. G. railway. up Little Cottonwood
Canyon, and place suffering and swelter-
inc humanity in a temperature of say
55 degrees. in contrast with the 80
or more of this city. 1t is true the
aving here at 7.25 a. IL. requires an
early breakfast; there lis some little
discomfort in the up journey, over the
tramway, in beng haule b equines,
up the continued steep grades; and
that you require light overcoat to
withstand the chilliness experienced
when nearing Alta City, but all these
slight disadvantages are overbalanced
by the healthful improvement of an in
creased if not voracious appetite, which
has been obtained by rising into
higher and cooler atmosphere. Few
persons understand the high attitude
reached on such trip, so our reporter
took along an aneroid to inform HIM
self. Salt Lake City is situated 4,240
feet above the sea level, and on arriving
at Bingham Junction we had gained 100
feet. After transfer of cars on to the
iron horse tugged away and by circui-
tous and steep grades brought US in an
hour to Wasatch at the mouth of
Little Cottonwood Canyon. Here we
found our climbing to have reached
l, $50 feet above Salt Lake City. Onward
we speed, excelsior our motto,
until at Tannerville we were 800 feet
higher than when at Wasatch.
Nothing daunted we continued on-that
is to say the D. 81 R. G. tramcar hauled
us upwards-until we arrived at Alta.
to find our trip had brought US to an
elevation of j $50 ieet higher than when
we started, four hours before. and that
we were nearly $500 feet above sea
level. Snow banks in sight, cooling
streams of water bounding over the
rocks. added to fine and picturesque
mountain scenery, impaired health
glow of vitality which must be expe-
rienced to be fully appreciated. The
return trip of three hours duration,
delightful ride, brought US safe at home
soon after O'Clock And this trip
can be made on any day of the week.
The d. d r. G. CO. extend the privilege
of one.half fare on Sundays, and all
who wish to gain health and strength,
will dc well to read their advt.. call at
their Office and obtain the necessary
tickets for a trip that will bring plea
sure and satisfaction to all who under
take it.

BASEBALL BATTLES.
Return Of the Vanquished Games
at the Park.

This evenings train will probably
bring the Salt Lake nine back to their
native heath, telegram having been
received from them on Sunday evening
as follows:
"Waxed again. to 10. Home Tues
day night
1t was not known last evening by
which road they would return, but ii
was generally conceded that, whichever
| happens to be their choice, an extra
engine would be entirely unnecessary
their glory being of exceedingly small
proportions A letter from our cores
pendent gives an entertaining account
of the last game in Pueblo and the first
in Denver.
Our boys returned from Park City on
Sunday evening. They bring slightly
better record than the heroes of the
Colorado fields, but not yet such one
as can be entirely satisfactory to them
selves.
The first days game resulted in vic
tory for the Salt Lakers by score of 25
to Is.
On the second day the game was
called by the umpire at the end of the
ninth inning, on account of rain, with
% runs for each nine.
The concluding game on Sunday
brought out the mammoth score of 80
to %, with our boys in the lead.
Ned WaIlin, and, in fact, all who
made the trip, speak in the highest
terms of the many courtesies
received, not only at the hands
of the Park City ball-tossers, but also
from the ladies of the camp, who, in
deed, were the only residents of the
Park who took any interest in the pro-
ceedings at all. Some idea of the chill
ing reception accorded to both clubs
may be obtained when it is stated that
the three days receipts amounted to but
$27, which was equally divided, between
the knights of the diamond.
The large scores are accounted for by
the fact that the grounds are on in
cline, and rough in the extreme, with
thick brush fringing the field, into
which the ball was frequently knocked
and lost. One man is reported to have
walked his three bases after his hit, and
then waited on the third while the ball
was hunted up. Wallin is the authority
for the statement that ball hit to short
STOP would richochet to first base, on
account of the uneven condition of the
diamond.
1t is matter OF regret, to both clubs,
and to the Park City team in particular,
that so little interest was manifested in
the event.

Payments Made to Dead Men aud Re-
married widows to be stOpped-A Mum.
Der of Incomes That win Suddenly Cease.
WASHINGTON, ID. c., April 29.-In reply
to an inquiry from Senator Cockrell,
Commissioner Of Pensions Black yesters
day addressed that gentleman letter on
the subject of the appointments of exam
lining surgeons for the various pension
boards, in which he points out the re-
quirements deemed essential in the Sc
lection of examining surgeons He says:
"Appointees must be men of personal
honor and integrity. They must be men
of tried professional ability and expert
ence, at least five years of active profess
sional practice being considered essential;
and they must be men of diligence, men
who would be unwilling to make a Slip
shod examination in any case, or sub
scribe to the work of others"
Where the above requisites are COM
bined, the Commissioner prefers the ap.
pointment of men who have been in the
military service of the United States.
"Boards to be organized and reorgan-
ized," he said, "will consist, in every
case where the above requisites can be
combined, of two Democrats and one Re-
publican, it being one of the aims of the
Commissioner to strip this branch OF the
public service of all partisan bias, and to
render these boards what they should be,
safeguards to the public Treasury, as
well as Just witnesses TO the rights Of
lawful claimants against the Govern
NEST"
In conversation with Commissioner
Black Yesterday afternoon, a representa-
| tive of the United Press was Informed
that he has issued orders directing the
suspension OF payment from the Phila-
delpha Pension Agency of l02 pensions,
the original recipients of which have been
dead, in some Instances since 1871, put
the names have been carried on the rolls
and pensions regularly drawn by other
persons since the death of the original
recipients. The Commissioner has also
directed the suspension of pay
ment from the Philadelphia
Agency of seven pensions which
were granted to widows. These
pensioners it has been learned, notwith-
standing their remarriage have continued
TO draw pensions for several years past.
Commissioner Black has laid these mat
ters before the Attorncy-General, and re-
quested him to take steps to recover from
he pension agent and his bondsmen. the
sums so unlawful ly discussed.
Figures to be issued at the pension Of
flee on May lst it is sail, will show that
the work OF the bureau during the past
month will be considerably greater than
that of any previous mouth in its history.
