WASN'T LOADED FOR BEAR.
How Bruin Spoiled n Picnic And
Had the Lunch TO Himself.

4 rather comical story comes from Alta
in which Mr.. John King, the popular
agent of the tramway, and a friend,
figure as the heroes. Mr.. King and his
friend, wearied with the conventionalities
of society life in Alta, thought to HE
themselves to the primitive freedom of
the Big Cottonwood lakes. They pre-
pared a fine stock of edibles, including
champagne, cigars and whatever else
would be conducive to right royal time.
King rode a mule and his friend followed
the winding trail on a $40 horse.
Notwithstanding many obstacles inn
peding their journey across the range,
they reached their destination beside the
lakes in safety. Being fatigued and in
need of refreshments, the choice lunch
was spread out and about to be sampled
when the mule, which was picketed near
by, began to bray, and the horse came
running frantically into camp, pursued
by a ''real, live bear" as King swears
under oath. The men believing it good
generalship to retreat, hastily mounted
their flying steeds and headed down the
tow path for Alta
The choice lunch was politely left for
their unwelcome visitor until the follow
ing day, when two hardy miners were
hired TO go after it, and bring back the
bear, if convenient to do so.
Mr.. King and his friend think that
their little outing recuperated them SUI
ficiently to enable them to bear up under
the trammels of civilization for the re-
mainder of this season.

THE CASTLE VALLEY COLONY.
a Esich Country To BE settled Up
By Utah Families.

Bishop David Williams, OF Winter
Quarters, was met at the Continental
Hotel this afternoon and asked few
questions pertaining to the colony ne is
about to plant in Castle Valley. Mr..
Williams states that his lease on the
Pleasant Valley coal mines, which he has
managed for five years, expires on the
LIST of next October. The mines will then
be run by the Denver & Rio Grande Com
pany, with Mr.. George Goss in charge,
who is vice-president OF the vast coal
mines at Pleasant Valley.
Mr.. Williams has made thorough ex-
ploration of Castle Valley, which contains
thousands of acres of fine rolling lands
that can be easily watered by Price river
and Huntington creek, and he intends to
start large supply depot at Price, where
will be kept all necessary farming uten-
sis, building material and provisions for
the seventy-five families who are prepar-
ing to 90 and take up homes in and about
Price and Huntington.
Much of the land has been taken up
under the Deseret Act, under the require
ments of which some beautiful homes
will be established Mr.. Williams says
he never saw oats and wheat grow SO
prodigiously as in Castle Valley. The
country lies in vallies of a thousand or SO
acres each, divided by knobs of ground
about fifty feet high. 1t is the purpose
of the protector to make this idle valley
Garden OF Eden, all the natural adyan-
tages desired being at hand.

NEVADA AND UTAH HORSES.
The Good Points of Our MOuntain-
bred Stock.

This is the best horse region in the
world. The whole of the mountain area
of the arid section lying between Chey
enne and the Sierra Nevada range is es-
pecially adapted to horse-breeding The
altitude and atmosphere are just right.
Our Nevada raised horses have deeper
chests and broader lungs than those of
any other section in the world, not bar
ring Arabia. The hoof is also tough and
is never known to break or split With
good feet, lungs and size, the horse cannot
fail to have endurance in marked de-
gree. We have seen in Eastern Nevada
the largest, hardest and best horses
grown on the continent. The following
from the Northwestern Stock Journal on
the subject in hand is both pertinent and
interesting:
Utah and Nevada have for number of
years been paying special attention to
breeding up and increasing their horse
herds. Bands of one or two thousand
head are numerous in both sections. The
original stock was American mares, and
good stations have been used to such an
extent that there is scarcely a herd of
horses to be found that will not average
from nine to eleven hundred pounds.
Formerly the Copper-bottomed was a ia
vorite breed and every band shows good
many roans with all the muscles and good
points of that once grandest of Missouri
stock. There are many Hambletonians
among the youngest animals, and splen-
did driving teams can be found among
any bunch of COW horses on the range.
There is very little market in the West
for these horses, and our Western friends
should make an effort to introduce them
into the Eastern trade marts. A COM
bined shipment by two or three breeders
sending a carload to Kansas City and one
to Chicago, as samples, would be very
proper move The endurance of our
Western horses, if once demonstrated
to Eastern buyers, would make them
much sought after by the public
generally and create market cock
tensive with the present and future.

ANOTHER INCEsTUOUs WRETCH.
Oh, Religion! What Crimes are Com
mitted I'm Thy Name.

The following story, if true-and 1t IS
told by party claiming to be familiar
with the facts-is only another illustra-
ton of the depth of depravity to which
the system of polygamy can lower hui
mainly A man named Butterworth, a
ranchman living some eight miles over
Jordan, and who is now between fifty and
sixty years of age, was married some
years ago to lady who had suddenly
left her husband in the old country and
emigrated to Utah with her daughter.
Butterworth having strong polygamous
desire to take unto himself the daughter as
soon as she was old enough, did so, after
gaining her mothers consent by choking
her until she was black in the face. A
pair of twins were born to the mother OF
his child-wife, which died soon after
birth From the daughter four children
have been reared.
His beastly nature not yet being salts
fed, he married third wife and brought
her into the family to share with the
others the alleged joys and the real sor-
rows of an unnatural home. His first
TWO wives, moIner anu uaugnter, opJeCCeu
to this arrangement, and by constant
jibes and annoyances they made it ex-
tremely hot for No. 3. AT last, unable to
endure the tantalization any longer, the
distracted woman determined to end her
miserable existence. and committed sui
eide by jumping head foremost
into a well. The head of the house
hold got her out, but too late.
Butterworth is spoken of as a good
Mormon in the faith, and is said to pos
sess considerable OF this worlds goods.
His marriage relations would seem ample
cause for an investigation of his career
before the Commissioner.
