Honesty.

A young man who transfers baggage
for the Southern Pacific Railway Com
pany, on Sunday found in the folds of
a mattress $50 in gold and silver coin of
the United States. 1t is not the gem
eral custom for baggage transfer hands
to move bedding. but every Sunday
morning what is known as Raymond
excursion party comes fir m the west,
and goes over the Denver & Rio Grands
Railroad. He was engaged in convey
ing the bedding of the excursion party
from the Southern Pacific cars to the
Denver & Rio Grande Western cars,
when he found the said money in the
way stated He Immediately reported
his find, and the owner, one of Ray
mond's excursionists. was found, who
thankfully received his money, and re-
warded his honesty with S.. But the
best reward the young man had was
the knowledge of having done right. %

The following letter passed from the
secretary of the Ogden Coal Il Ooking
Company to their Salt Lake City
agents, on the 2lst instant: .1>
Gentlemen The first carload of coal came
into Ogden yesterday, and has impressed
everyone, even rival coal dealers, with the
superior quality of this coal. There is con-
siderable excitement over its advent here
because it is tirst-c.asS coking coal, and
that means The unlocking of all the iron
treasures in the mountains east of our city
the hoarse roar of blast fu .naces and roll
ing mills, as well as the musical ring of
hammers and anVils and the busy hum of
machine shops and Car works, and it
means Tor Salt Lake the building of her
smelling works and foundries and the COM
msnd of the anufactured iron business OF
the west. 1t means the building of two
great centres of trade and manufactures,
and demonstrating beyond the possibility
OF successful contradiction, the fact that
Utah is the land OF promise for capital and
skilled labor as well as agricultural in

Utilizing Waste Leather.

A most interesting feature Of all busi-
nesses using leather is that not one par
tiele of the leather Is wasted. Our shoe
factories alone sell annually fifty tons of
waste. This goes main, to a firm in
Philadelphia, who pays " a ton for It.
A large amount is sent TO Lynn, Mass,
and other points, where the leather is
ground up, mixed with a medium aud
pres ed into buttons. The remainder
that is not so used is treated chemically,
TUNED into a gelatinous mass, dried ard
ground into a fertilizing dust. The sole
leather pieces that fsu from the block
Of the heel stamper are sorted into two
heaps. The very fine pieces are put with
the fine waste. The scraps, presenting a
surface of a couple Of square inches, are
harreled up and sold to parties in New
York or Boston at n cent a pound,
where they are put through a peculiar
machine. This instrument splits The
pieces nearly through. Then ii opens the
piece thus cut like a book. Thence it is
delivered from between rollers, and is
large enough to be again sent TO the fac
tory to be cut up into heel lifts.-Balh-

Writing n Composite Novel.

A new amusement is suggested by q
club Of young persons-sixteen in num-
her. They are writing a book-a novel.
SO far the secretary is having the most
fun out Of it, but great expectations
tremble way down in all the sixteen
hearts. This novel is TO have sixteen
chapters. and each chapter is to be writ
ten by n different member. When fin
ished the successive chapters are handed
back 10 the secretary. who, consequently,
is the only one who knows the various
writers. They are al! in fear and trem-
bling lest the love making fall to their lot
that being considered the most difficult
part 10 do justice to. There will certainly
be much amusement afforded by the
undertaking. Chicago Herald.

Human Curiosity In Austria.

A remarkable case Of disease is at pres
ent engrossing the attention Of medical
men in Austria. There is lying at the
hospital of the city Of Ischl a patient af-
fiicted with a bony -excrescence protrud-
ing from between the lower cervical ver-
tebrae. The excrescence has the form
Of a horn. is round and straight, with a
diameter Of n and a han inches. 1t
has grown to a length Of about eight
inches. and would probably have been
much longer by this time but for the fact
that the point was broken of several
times to be sent TO the p~atholoSic insti-
tute of Vienna for examination. There
is no feeling in the horn, the breaking of
OF the points, which the patient did him
self, causing him no pain whatever. At
the root where the horn is attached to the
spinal column it is soft and movable. but
ifrapidly grows hard and is like bone at
a short distance from the root.-Foreign

Fortified Monster In Iowa.

The petriied remains Of a huge ami
NAL have been discovered near Perez.
Ia, by 4 man named S. r. Dawson. 1t
was lying beneath the surface on the
bank of the Dies Moines river. The total
length Of the body measures, without the
head. over forty feet. The head was de-
tached from the body. and when dis
covered was some distance away from it.
At nine feet from the end of the tail it
measured four feet six inches in width.
In support of his theory that this is the
petriiied remains Of some extinct monster.
Mr.. Dawson, in describing the find, shows
that it is entirely unlike the stone forma-
ton in the vicinity. A spar Of quartzite
formation was discovered in the locality
where the blood vessels and intestinal
canal should be, and another formation
was found in other parts. The remains
were in a bed OF dark blue stone sur
rounded by. petrifed remains of insects
and other animals. Mr.. Dawson is con-
iident that the monster belonged TO the
carboniferous age.-Demorest's Monthly.
