the court has been held in a dark and
dreary room in the Masonic block, on
Washington avenue.
The new quarters are located on the sec

Just been completed, on the corner of
Washington venue and T~wenty-fourth
street. The court room occupies the north
east corner, and is well supplied with all
the latest modern convenienceS The room
is about one-third smaller than the one Just
vacated, but that was considered much
larger than necessary, and the acoustics
were such that at times it was difficult for
the jury and the reporter to distinctly uu-
derstand the witnesses.
Back of the jury box and adjoining the
court room. is the Office of Judge Miner,
which is neatly carpeted ana with plenty
Of light. II is as cheerful a place as one
could wish. The United States marshal's
Offices, which occupy the southeast corner
OF the building, are also conveniently ar
ranged. tlneBrussels carpets are about to be
laid out and Deputy Marshal Butcher de.

Now that the building of the great power
works at the mouth of the Ogden canon
by Messrs. Thompson and Banks is a GER
tainty, and that the waters which flow in
its bed are to be harnessed and utilized in
furnishing power for the industries that
are now located here and others that are to
come, the next acquisition which the peo-
pie OF OGDEN seek most at the present time
is natural gas. The late agitation of the
tinds at Lake park renewed the in
terest in the subject in the juno
tion city, but no definite ac-
ton has been taken in preparation
for drilling, owing to the power works
question which all were united in seeing
pushed through. That now being disposed
of an effort will probably be made to or
game a gas company, and before many
weeks have drills sinking into the earth in
search Of gas.
Every patriotic citizen should aid those
who are willing to take the matter in hand
and donate a share of his time in seeing the
project carried to maturity by subscribing
literally and giving assistance whenever
required. The chamber of commerce is
ready to do its share, and the citizens tt
whose interests il would be to do theirs.

to the rural schools of Weber county, where
the most approved systems of instruction
are being carried Out. The county super
intendent, Joseph S. Perry. and the teach
ers are \ working TO a system of
graduation that is producing excellent
results. The course Of study en-
braces eight years. There are monthly
examinations with a basis of 10 per cent.
for promotion. Diplomas are given on the
completion of the course and commence
ment exercises are held. Probably the
next commencement will be held in the
Grand Opera house in Ogden. There will
be forty or fifty graduates this year. Spec
ial attention is paid TO primary obstruction
and 10 the developing of thought, and
thorough work is done IN all the grades.
About half the teachers are from the Nor
NAL schools and graded work of the east;
the others are local. This intermiXture OF
ideas from the representatives OF different
states is productive OF excellent results.
A marked interest is taken by the
people in the public schools. Old schoo
buildings are being replaced by handsome
brick structures having modern idea:
