SOME FAT AND JUICY FEES.

PARIS, Bear Lake county, Aug. 2S, $780,
Correspondence Of The HERALD I'VE
have had visitation from the great In
dian doctor. He came and advertised a
free lecture in this town. The house was
crowded. The subject was the alleged visit
of the Savior to the Lamanites in this west
ern country, and which he said happened
recently. At the close of she lecture more
or less brilliant peroration was delivered,
which consisted of a strictly tirst-class ad-
vertIsement of the Doctors skill as healer.
The first part of the lecture was quite in
teresting; the latter part, which explained
the doctors medical theories, was, ooh, 90
come off 4; Pm tired now and please lay me
in my little bed,' where | won't hear any
thing that don't belong to the good old 1Es-
culpian school. Fancy pillow of herbs
being recommended as q cure for consump-
ton, tumors, etc, etc. o, temp ora! .,
mores what fools these mortals be! One
of our leading educational lights rather
dotted on the doctor, but is now ashamed to
confess it. The town is divided on the sub
ject. Some believe, others disbelieve in his
pretensions. One thing is certain, he just
did roaring Business while he did stay
raked in fees running all the way from s.
to even $40. He left some of us sadder but
wiser men. He came with his experience
| and some money: when he left he took our
money and left US the experience.
Harvesting and haying are the order OF
the day at present.
| A very pleasant visit from DR.. Ship and
son, of Salt Lake, has lately interested US.
| DR.. Shipp delivered us free lecture last
Sunday on sanitation, etc. 1t was mas
terly effort and thoroughly appreciated.
Lots of arrests for illegal voting give US
something TO talk about, and the prospect
of accepting Uncle Sans enforced hos
pitality in the penitentiary is not very en-
couraging.
The United States timber agents have
been confiscating logs and lumber in diff
ferent parts of the country in the last few
days for alleged violations of the timber
and land laws. No arrests yet in this
quarter on the lumber racket.
| Politics is still of absorbing interest, and
will be till after the state elections.
Our stake school has just started in the
court house We wish the fees were lower,
so all of US could afford to patronize it to
the extent to which we would like. Prof.
j. f. Phillips, a young master of arts from
the Glasgow university, has just been en-
ployed to teach i'll the academy. 1t seems
to me he ought to have the principalship.
The principal told me that Prof. Phillips
possessed very much superior ability to
that which he himself possessed. Time
will doubtless arrange all that. In the
meantime, the students of Bear Lake who
don't take advantage of the gentleman's
ability will get ''badiy left.'' The
the purpose of assisting in illus
trating experiments in natural philosophy
and chemistry. A full course is offered il
theology, languages English and foreign)
mathematics and natural sciences. On dit
that Bear Lake stake academy is the only
church school that has graduate from al
English university on the list of its faculty
It is broadly rumered that the worthy pro
fessor occasionally pines Gin his solitary
moments, which, by the by, are few ant
far between), for a fair English ''girl HI
left behind him." and that we may be ia
vored with her presence shortly. WheI
the lady comes, if your friend the writer
can correctly diagnose the professors case
the torch of Hymen will speedily be Lighted
and a sacrifice to Venus be in order, ant
! the gentleman desert the craven ranks o
the bachelors for the reckless columns O.
the Benedicts. And so 1t goes.

away with the settled conviction that Bea
