On to La PLATA

At the regular meeting of the county
yesterday, Secretary Mcdaniel, OF the
chamber of commerce, presented the claims
of the new mining camp, La Plata, and
urged that the road from Ogden up the
Ogden river valley be improved and short
ened at once. The distance now travelled
is nearly thirty-five miles. which, it is said,
can be shortened fully ten miles by the ex-
penditure of few hundred dollars. The
mines lie in the Orgen river valley and
consequently in Weber county, but an
effert is being made to divert travel to
Logan and Brigham City. 1t is under
stood that the county courts of both Box
Elder and Cache counties will construct
roads to the mines.
The Weber county court does not pro-
pose TO be left, so ordered that road be
built as proposed, and at once. A liberal
appropriation was made and Selectman
Foy given charge of the road with in
structions to sc to La Plata Immediately,
and having decided on the best road, to
begin work right away.
A subscription to aid in the construction
of the road has already received some $500
in pledges. This, together with the ap-
preparation from the city, will insure the
immediate construction of good road

On a Junketing Tour.

Nearly hundred business men of this
city went to Sewer valley on the Rio
Grande excursion. They returned yester-
day morning at 6 o'clock, hungry and
thirsty, for arrangements had been made
TO accommodate only 200 instead of the
1000 which did go. The result was that
both water and food gave out, and the Og-
den contingent was nearly famished On its
return. Mayor Turner, Councilmeu
Lundy, Dee, Allison, Spencer and Elliot,
were in the party, and one OF the city dads
declares that on the entire trip he had only
one slice of bread and butter. The trir
was otherwise an enjoyable one and q

HRR LIFE A WRECK.

After Fifteen Years Mary Peunock
Finds Her Lover Was Honorable.
NEW York, March 2l.-After many
years Of struggle, deprivation and sorrow,
after the man she had loved had been torn
from her side by the cruel intriguing of a
Jealous rival, Miss Mary Pennock of Green
port, L. l., is about to come into prinoely
fortune. The man she loved is dead, the
best years OF her life have been passed in
humble labors. and now, when old age is
approaching, she finds at last that her sac.
rifces were not availing.
The story Is q simple enough one, but it is
full Of pathos. During the war Miss PEN
mock, who was then young and proposes
ing, became nurse III one of the union hos
pitals She was refined and educated, and
was almost idolized by the sick and wounded
soldiers under her care. In tho same hospi-
tai there was a surgeon named Douglas. rom
Ohio. An attachment sprang up between
them, and they became engaged. The night
before they were t. be married negress
knocked at the young girls room. When
Miss Pennock opened the door mulatto
baby was put in her arms. "If you
are going to marry the doctor you had better
take care of his child, said the woman.
The girl tainted. When restored to con-
sciousness she refused to see her lover or
listen to explanations. Broken-hearted, she
left the hospital and went to her home. DR..
Douglas tried in every way to reach her
and convince her that she had wronged
him, but she would not see him. Within a
snort time he died, leaving to her by will
all his property, amounting TO 500 900.
she was dependent upon her labor for u
livelihood, and his fortune would have
made her rich, but she refused to accept it.
She felt that a cruel wrong had been done
her by the donor, and she would not profit
by his gift
Now, after fifteen years, she finds that a
colured woman had been hired by a jealous
rival IN the hospital TO bring the child to
her aud tell the lie that wrecked the lives Of
two persons. The money has been held in
trust for her meantime aud has assumed
enormous proportions. amounting to $780,
UJO. Now thai the stain has been removed
from the honor Of her old lover, Miss PEN
mock will take steps to recover his fortune.
Lawyer Benjamin Of GIeenport has been
engaged by her to attend to The transfer.

WASHINGTON. March q. -SenatorV Vance's
stepson really alarmed the occupants of the
white house very much last evening when
in his drunken delirium he climbed up on
the back porch and smashed in the window
OF the red parlor. 1t did not take much
imagination to hint of murderous crank
OF the Guiteau order or possibly a crazy
member of the Malta. The President
and Mrs. Harrison were both startled.
but neither showed any more
than the nervousness natural to the
situation. While the two special officers
were wrestling with the intruder, who is a
well-trained and powerful athlete, and who
yelled like madman, every roar could be
heard all over the house, and the sleeping
children were awakened. The President
was more concerned for Mrs. Harrison and
his dinner guests, Mr.. and Mrs. B. K. Jami-
son OF Philadelphia, than for himself, and
as soon as he learned what the
trouble was he devoted himself to
eiiaylng their apprehensions. After the
ofhcers had taken young Martin away

WESTERN UNION ACCEPTING NO
PAY FROM THE GOVERNMENT.

Under the Postmaster Generals
Schedule it is Entitled to a Little
Over 100000 Per Year-It Claims
Nearly $4,000 More Under the Old
Rates Stockholm g Suspected.
WASHINGTON, March 22.-The court of
claims will not hear the arguments in the
suit of the Western Union Telegraph Conn
pauy against the United States to recover
reasonable rates" for its telegraph service
before October. For nearly two years
the Western Union has been send
ing the government kilograms for
nothing, or rather without accepting
the money which would have come to it
under the rates ixed by Postmaster General
Wanamaker. Itsesms likely TO do so for two
years more. Any government officer hav~
ing legal authority can send telegram on
official business over the Western Union
lines without paying for It. The company
will not lot him pay for it il ne offers to.
NO BILLS SENT IN.
Nor does it send any bills for telegraph
ing TO any Of the departments, although, as
matter OF courtesy. it furnishes in some
cases a monthly memoranda Of the number
of words sent. Meanwhile, of course, it is
keeping astriot account of all OF the govern
ment business At tue old rates it am cunts
to about $3.50. 900 = year. At the Wanamaker
rates it amounts to something over $l00,-
900 ayear. Nine-tenths of it is work done
for the weather bureau and signal service.
The object Of the company in not
accepting the money due at the Wana.
maker rates, without relinquishing its
claim TO the additional amount due under
the old rates, is not apparent.
STOCK, JoBBING SUSPECTED.
1t is thought at the treasury department
to be connected with some stock, jobbug
scheme, perhaps to depress Western Union
stock and then to boom it with an extra
dividend to be paid out Of the accumulation
due it, a large part Of which can be col
lected from the the government quickly
at any time. The contention OF the
Western Union in the court of
claims is that the rates fixed by
the Postmaster General must be reason
able" while the assistant attorney general
maintains the Postmaster General has arbi-
trary power TO fix them as he pleases. The
Western Union has refused to produce its
books to throw hight on the question of
actual cost. President Greene explained TO
the assistant attorney general that he was
afraid the books might be misunderstood. -

FEDERAL LIQUOR rAxss.
Government Stamps Only q Receipt
ana Not q License.

WASHINGTON, March 22-Aeting Secre-
tary Nettleton Of the treasury department
has Issued a circular letter modifying the
form OF government special tax stamp for
retail liquor dealers. so as to show that the
United States does not authorize the sale Of
liquor contrary to state or municipal regu-
lations- The letter says: Letters are fire.
quently received at the department stating
that in many parts Of the country retail
hquor dealers claim to hold permit or
license from the United States for CARRYING
on their business; that in many cases
where the local law prohibits public
drinking places the law is openly
violated by persons who claim to do busi-
ness under at least the moral sanction of a
federal license" and that this fact, to-
gether with the belief common among many
good citizens that the United States gov
ernment does, in fact, issue such licenses,
greatly retards the enforcement of whole~
some restr. .ctive laws and promotes dis
order. 1t should be unnecessary to state
that the United States government does not
issue a license or permit of any nature to
any person in any state to carry on the
business Of retail liquor dealer, and it is
difficult to understand how any in
tellgene citizen can be imposed
upon by the opposite claim. The
congress having levied a revenue stamp tax
OF S25 per aanum on the business of retail
liquor dealer, the commissioner of internal
revenue endeavors to collect this tax
wherever and by whomsoever the business
is carried on, but no semblance of permis.
sion. express or implied, is given by the
United States government in its revenue
laws or otherwise to begin or continue any
such business in any place contrary to local
legislation"
Hereafter the following will be inscribed
on the face of the stamp to be issued
to retail liquor dealers: "This stamp
is simply a receipt for tax due the
government, and does not exempt the
holder from any penalty or punishment
provided for by the law Of any state for
carrying on said business within such state
aud does not authorize the commencement
nor continuance Of such business contrary
to the laws Of such state, or in places pro-
hibited by the municipal law"

KEYSTONE BANK TROUBLES.
They are Said to Date Back at Least
Three Years.

Three Years.
PHILADELPHIA, PA, March 22.-Facts
are being brought to light which indicate
that the trouble in the Keystone National
bank, which was closed by the controller of
the currency on Friday last, dates far back
of the run inaugurated during the financial
stringency OF last December. 1t was stated
to-day that President John Lucas, who
died in 1888, owed the bank large sums of
money, and that this ssfact was concealed
k own to others. President Lucas at the
time Of his death owned the Keystone
Bank building, handsome structure, the
erection Of which cost over S400, 900. This
he Is said to have built with funds bor-
rowed from the bank.
TURNED OVER TO THE BANK
At.the time Of the troub Q in December the
widow Of President Lucas turned the build
ing, which had been mortgaged by her late
husband for 100000, over to the board of
directors 1t was announced that she had
of the distressed institution. The
building was Immediately sold for
Sl75.000 over aud above the mortgage.
After the December trouble had been
tided over, five OF the directors, it is said,
learned for the first time that President
Lucas used the banks funds. These direc-
tors were reelected al the January
meeting of the stockholders, but refused
to serve, and their places have not
since been filed. One of the five is
said to have advanced the bank 100000 at
the time of the run, and he also went securi-
ty for $50 900 more borrowed from the
Clearing House Association. The associa>
tion at the time advanced the banks $3.50,
600, all but 100000 of which has been paid
back. 1t is now thought that a heavy as
sessment of the stockholders will be neces-
sary for the bank to resume.
