The Rio eranae Western in sanpete.

Mr.. Babcock, the right of way agent of
the Rio Grande Western, says trains will
be running into Manti by Christmas, prob
ably earlier. Manti will be the terminus
for some time to come.
A Register reporter, the other day, took a
spin along the grade to see how things were
progressing, and how near the construction
was at Ephraim.
At p. N. the construction was three
quarters of a mile north of Spring City
The want of rails prevented the construc-
ton being completed to Spring City. 1t is
expected to be there today.
Ties were spread out from the end of the
track to the depot. Work was progressing
finely on the foundation of the water tank,
which is located just north of the station
The water trench from the springs, which
is TO supply the tank, is almost completed.
The depot grounds are all graded and the
stakes are driven marking off the station
building.
The first cut just north of the depot is
practically finished, all that is left is to get
the grade.
From this point south and before reach
ing Pigeon Hollow about a dozen teams
were employed finishing the grade, which
will all be done before this evening.
The cut at Pigeon Hollow is nearly com
pleted, and if there is no bad luck or hind
rance will be entirely completed before the
end of the week, or at least by Monday
next.
South Of Pigeon Hollow and to Ephraim
the road is finished. There were only three
teams at work on this portion Of the road,
and they were confident of having it fin
ished by yesterday evening
The rock culverts are all in and there are
only some half dozen box culverts to set
The work of construction, if it were
pushed at the rate of a mile day, would
bring the railway in Ephraim by week
from Saturday or Sunday.-RegiSter.

They Rejoice In Denver.

The question that everyone has been ask
ing and that nobody could answer satisfac-
torily, for several days past, has been.
''What changes will Gould make On the
Union Pacific?" They are all expecting
some change, but it puzzles them to find
out Just where the lightning will strike and
where il will stop striking. From the
opinion of Mr.. Adams MANAGEMENT. that
MIR. Gould is known to hold, it is one of the
most certain things that he will revolution
ize things very soon.
AS General Manager Meek,s STAY in New
York is more and more prolonged. il is
whispered about that he is there about
coming changes. A prominent railroad
official said yesterday he might get to be
general superintendent, but not general
manager.
The official referred to has been CON
nected with railroads in the west for a
good many years and predicts that the fat
offices under the new dispensaton will be
distributed about as follows: General
manager, 5. H. II. Clark; general superin-
tendent, E. Dickinson or G. f. Meel,
traffic manager, E. p Vining; formerly
traffic manager of the Union Pacific: gen
eral freight agent, F. b. Whitney. general
freight agent of the Missouri River divi
sion or j. A. Monroe, assistant traffic man

The Situation of the LOGAN People.


The people of Logan and Cache valley
generally are up in arms again. The oca-
sion of it this time is the new time schedule
that went into effect Sunday. We were
just beginning to think that at last the
railroad people had come to their senses,
and meant to give US some kind of service:
something near, anyway, what our patron
age deserved, but alas how frail are
human hopes. Since the widening of the
guage, about six weeks ago, we have had
three passenger trains each way daily con-
Meeting with trains on the main line both
north and south; but from this on we will
have only one train daily, and hereafter
those who would journey by rail, must sit
up all night, set the alarm clock, or hire
watchman to come around at O'Clock and
wake them in order to catch the train.
The HERALD will hereafter reach US
twenty -four hours old. just think OF it!
Passengers going north must leave here at
6:l5 a. M, so over to Cache junction and
lay there until II midnight to go on north.
Our valley ships north tons of butter, eggs,
poultry, veal, ETC., by express, This mat
ter must now be delivered at the Office IN
the evening before shipment. 1t will reach
Cache Junction at o'clock next morning
and Pocatello at a. 10. the second day.
We pity the poor chickens. Interesting,
isn't it! But never mind; company of
engineers are now in this valley, locating
new line for road that has good backing,
and money enough to build a road from Og
den to Logan. If they have not, Cache
Valley has. A gentleman said to me yes
terday; 81 will give one thousand dollars
towards building a road into Logan. :"
There are one hundred others who will
give the same amount, and every merchant
in the valley will sign contract to patron
lie the new road for five years at least.
The general verdict is that the Union Pa
ciic can go to warmer country. Bob.

rather small, and he has trick of half
closing them when talking to you. His
mustache is white, and there is not enough
of it to hide the expression of his mouth,
which looks as though he might be terri
bly, bitter in his speech on occasion. His
figure is compact, and he moves as only
those move who are physically powerful.
He is careless in his dress, as are most men
who have spent much time in the free life
of the wild; he wore his gloves unbut-
toned and one end of his coat collar turned
up He is terribly earnest in manner; he
impresses you, moves you, by this earnest
ness. Generally he talks in rather low
tone of voice, but his sentences can ring
out as he becomes excited by the subject
matter of his speech. His voice is wonder
fully sympathetic in timbre; it recalls the
description of Cardinal Newman's voice:
There are tears in it," AS he spoke of
the men who died at Yambuya, the Arabs
and Zanzibaris, / wish you could have
heard the pathos, the exceeding mourning,
of the words: ''These men were my men,
my officers. They did not belong to the
committee; they were mine. Many of
them were old and tried friends whom |
had trusted only to find them true My
friends died there" His voice expressed
the sorrow as well as the rage which filled
his heart as he thought of that long
tragedy.
The man seems to be devoid of humor
Jokes affect him not, nor does he approach
them in his talk. He is grim as well as
earnest He repels and attracts at the
same time. He has an air of infinite pa
thence, and in his talk you are impressed
by an evident thoroughness shown in small
things. This explains to you his success
Nothing is so little as to be without a
claim on his attention, nothing so large
that he will not study it. But the suffer
! ing he has gone through has left it's mark,
! for on his face there is look as of one who
has drawn the veil and gazed at death face
to face, yet has not been afraid

In the Olden DAYS.

st. Louis Globe Democrat: when the
Kansas Pacific was first opened" said B..
w. Vedder, locomotive engineer, 1.-The
Indians were very hostile and there was a
constant fear that they would wreck the
trains. That they did not is due to their
ignorance of the iron horse and of the best
methods of destroying it. One of my fire
men had an experience with the Cheyennes
that he will never forget. He was on the
road near Fort Wallace, when ne saw that
Indians had cut the telegraph wire. and
knew that he might look out for squalls.
They were never satisfied with simply
cutting the wire, but chopped it
into inch pieces with their toma-
hawks TO effectually stop the mys-
tericus messages. AS the train came
near large patch of sunfowers which
grew on both sides of the track over one
hundred Indians rose up, stretched strong
rope across the track, braced themselves
and prepared to receive the shock of the
locomotive. AS was afterward learned,
they had taken rawhide strips, braided
them together, and, with force Of fifty at
each end of the rope, thought they would
be able to stop the train. The instant the
locomotive struck the rope, the air was full
of Indians. They were thrown in all di-
rections. Some were ierked clear across
the train, and more than dozen were
killed or seriously injured. This was the
last attempt made for years to stop the
trains.n

Especial Correspondence.l


New YORK, Nov. 1.-THE lady is first,
as of right. Mrs. Henry NJ Stanley, she
Who was Miss Dorothy Tenant, is tall
and slight. She has wealth of golden
brown hair, her eyes are large, soft and
brown, her complexion is like porcelain,
and she had when she arrived in New
York great deal of color. She walks
gracefully, with lissome movement, and
her feet are as small as those of an Ameri-
can belle. She is slender and her figure is
good. When she arrived on the Teutonic
she wore circular of blue cloth, trimmed
with gray fur, black hat and face veil.
She moves continually to a position near
her husband, and she has a habit of taking
refuge behind him when she is talking.
This, however, seems to be Il survival, for
she will retreat behind her mother, if Mrs.
Tenant is near, when questioned by any
one she does not know well. She has a
wonderfully spirituelle expression, the look
of a born artist, and the contrast between
herself and her husband recalls the old
proverb anent contraries in marriage.
1t may be the fame which Stanley Afri-
canus has won as a traveller and explorer,
as a man whom no difficulties may daunt
and no dangers detain, that produced in
my mind the impression he was physically
a big man. What was my surprise at hay
ing the smallest man in the group stand
ing near the Teutonic's rail pointed out to
