Sec'y and Treasurer.
It seems natural that the account Of the
admirable meeting of the old settlers be
followed by this epitome of the history of
the
CHICAGO SOLDIERS AND SAILORS COLI
ONY.
The organization of the Chicago Sol
diers' aud Sailors Colony, which located
at Collyer, Kansas, in 1878, was an organ
ization true to its name. The original
party in this scheme was Col. G. N. Pratt,
of Chicago, ILL., In January, 1878, the
colony was in the course of organization,
and so continued until about March s,
when the colony, at regular meeting in
Opera Hall, fully completed its task by
electing Col G. N. Pratt, r. G. Kessler
and Larry LeBron its locating committee.
On the morning OF March IA, the commit
tee, in company with J. w. Burns, left
Chicago, to proceed westward, with 103
powers of attorney, to plant colony of
soldiers and sailors. The committee came
as far west as Coyote (Collyer,) in western
Trego. Here was presented to the COM
mittee grand layout. It required but
little delay until these gentlemen were
convinced that they were on the right
road to make strike. But a few days
were consumed until .all arrangements
were completed; and the committee board
ed the train, and went to the q. s. land
Office then at Hays City-Captain B. j.
F. Hanna, register. Upon being inform
ed that there were 103 filings to be made,
he lost his good health, and has never re-
covered since. The organization pros
pered until they numbered 307. The hot
blasts of '79 and 80, ETC., ETC., thinned the
ranks of this colony until to-day they
number thirty seven tried and true men,
women and children.

Might Have Been.

Frank Plyer, of the Third Ward, was
in the act of enjoying swim in the
lake, at Syracuse, on Tuesday, when a
few of his companions, on mischief
bent, seized hold of Plyer and plunged
him overhead into the water. This was
foolish act and might have resulted
disastrously for Frank, who, as it was
did not feel up to the mark after the
immersion, and consequently his pleas
ure was curtailed.
John Clayton, of this city, while bath.
ing in the lake at Syracuse, was seized
by cramp when beyond his depth. and
the position he was placed in being no.
tioed by parties in boat, assistance was
rendered him, and he was conveyed to

Salt Lake & Eastern.

In conversation with representative
of the Salt Lake Valley & Eastern Rail
road Company yesterday, a HERALD
nan learned that the road has $50 men
at work in Wyoming, divided into
three sections in three canyons, and
with the exception of this canyon work
which is always more or less difficult
the work throughout Wyoming is easy.
1t is the intention of the railroad COM
pany to tap some rich coal beds al
Twin Greek, which is about 105 miles
northeast of Ogden, from whence the
road will be built through to Woodruff
in Rich County, and will pass within
four miles south of the famous Mount
Cristo, and from here it will cross
the range and through the Ogden
Canyon to this city. The work
in our neighboring eastern Territory
is in charge of Engineer Mapleby.
On the 4th of August, there will be q
meeting of the directors of the Wy
oming and Eastern Ga branch of the
Salt Lake Valley 81 Eastern), the bust
ness to come before it being the consid-
Grafton of the extension of the corporate
| limits of the company so as to empower
them to build branch lines in Wyoming
Branch lines in Utah are not con
templated.
The company has just heard from
Major West, who had been invited to
take charge of the Utah division of the
work, and who is at present IN western
Nevada on professional duty connected
with the Utah Central extension, that
it would be impossible for him to ac-
cede to their wishes, as the Utah Cen
trail declined to release him from his ot-
legations to that road. Mr.. Edinger ha:
been appointed chief engineer in Mr.
Vests stead.

Hardly complimentary.

Mr.. Preshaw, speaking at the
Chamber of Commerce meeting on
Tuesday night, drew attention to the
lethargy of the people of Ogden. The
gentleman closed his remarks in some
thing like the following strain: 81
consider that had we lived Immediately
after the flood there would have been
no need to confound' the language, as
the people would not have had enter
prize enough to commence building a
tower Of Babel" Rather sarcastic.
