Back from the Desert.

Frank Mcdonald returned last night from his visit to the inland sea on the desert, and reports that the water is still rising, though slowly, owing to the extensive area 1t now covers. While camping near the edge of the lake Mcdonald met two men who had travelled down the Colorado river, and they revort that the inland sea is the resul. of the overflow from that stream. A few miles above the junction of the New rIver with the Colorado, complete sand bar crosses the latter, below where it has cut through the bank, and unless this is removed the permanent outflow of this river must be into the desert. - [San Diego Sun 18th.

Sad Fate of Miss Aggie Fife, at Draper-A Horse Stumbles, Throws Her From 8 Buggy
 and She is Picked Up 8 Corpse.
From the Salt Lake Herald. l

from the Salt LaXe f1eralu.
 Miss Aggie Fife, one of Ogden's most worthy young ladies, had been waiting with pleasurable anticipations for her weeks vacation Tn the country. Ac- cordingly, last Sunday morning she left her home in Ogden to visit some friends in Draper, Salt Lake county to spend the coveted vacation. The an ticipated pleasure was fully realized but suddenly terminated on the fatal date above mentioned. On the even- ing of August 18th. she with her friend, MT. s. w. Stewart, were en- toying an evening buggy ride, when by some unknown means the gentle animal which they were driving, sud- denly stumbled to the ground. jerking the lines from the hands of MT. Stew ert, who, in an instant made strong but unsuccessful effort to regain them The horse became frightened and Miss Fife, becoming alarmed, sprang from the buggy and was instantly killed. The father and brother of Miss Fife reside in Arizona and it is expected that they will reach Ogden in time for the funeral. The body will re- main in Draper few days when it will be taken to Ogden for burial.
 She was lady of remarkable cour- age and presence of mind. Her mother was cruelty murdered in Arizona by a Mexican who made several attempts to kill Miss Fife while she stood guard alone over her wounded and dying mother till assistance was obtained.

A CULINARY COLLATION..

IN using an egg beater do not hold it in one place; move it round in the bowl. NEVER put potatoes on the table in a covered dish; they will reabsorb their own moisture and become soggy.
 IN flavoring puddings if the milk is rich lemon fiavoring is good, but if the milk is poor vanilla makes it richer.
 SHORTENING for pies should be cold and firm. Have your water cold and stand in cool place while mixing and rolling out pastry.
 IF a cake cracks open when baking it is either because the oven is too hot and cooks the outside before the inside is heated or the cake was made too stiff.
 BEAT the yolk of an egg and spread on the top of rusks and pies just before putting them into the oven. The egg makes that shine seen vn bakers pies

A Cave of Ore Struck in the
 North Camp.
SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
TURQUoIs, A. T., Aug. 27, '9l.

TURoUoIs, A. T., Aug. 27, '91.
 EDITOR PROTECTOR: Though we are not making much noise in this camp at present, work is steadily pro gressihg on various properties and spirit of confidence in the future of Turquois strengthens daily AS shown by the ore that has been ship ped from this camp, our main trouble seems to be that we have too much lead for milling and not quite enough for smelling plants. If it were not for this dilemma reduction works would doubtless now be turning out bullion. "Why," said an old timer last evening, as he smoked his cigar in front of the McMahon Bros. headquarters, "look at that dump up there of the Silver Bill. There lays dump of over 10000 tons of second grade ore that would yield q handsome profit if they had the lead 10 work it with, and up in the north camp there lies the old Elgin mine, practically undeveloped, but from the surface down forty feet showing a mass of high grade salena, imbedded in low grade carbonate, and though it runs very low in silver, it gives evil dence of an immense deposit and i> just what is needed to solve the prob lem."
 On the Tom Scott tunnel Si Bryant is now in 44O feet with his tunnel and the face is looking we'll in mineralized lime.
 While wording on 8 prospect on a hill in the north camp Henry Mar auard struck 8 cave that is lined with low grade carbonate ore.
 Though nothing is being done on the Silver Bill properties at present it is expected that work will be resumed before the 1st of October. No. 3 shaft of this property shows three distinct ore bodies, two of which have been partially opened up, The upper one pitches to the southwest and will aver age 20 feet across, while the lower one pitching to the southeast, is from five to 20 feet in width. In both these chu.es of ore, which have been opened up for 75 feet, floors and roofs of work ings are in ore, hundreds of tons o which will run hundred dollars to the ton in value. The lower ore body is connected with the bottom of No 8 shaft at g depth of 100 feet by 10 foot drift and the ore is exceptionally fine.
 The late rains have brought thu grass out finely and cattle in this sec tion are fattening fast. X.
