Capt Lanston had been soldier,
and though, no doubt, good one, he
was a rough, hardy man, more suited
to shine in the camp than in the par
lor, and his otherwise excellent wife
was much the same sort of character.
Frank Hobart was ten years older
than Ella; not great disparity, to be
sure, but sufficient in his modest opin-
ion, to preclude his thinking of the
"sage-brush BELLE" or "sage-brus.i
nightingale, as some of her more ro-
mantle admirers called her, in any
other way than US charming child, in
the formation of whose character he
might have an influence for good He
boarded at the Grand Occidental hotel,
his position being that of mine superin-
tendent for the company working the
property he had discovered, and this
gave him an excellent opportunity to
see much of the child, and to direct her
studies in his spare hours.
These relations between Frank Ho-
bart and Ella continued for two years,
she proving herself to be bright and
grateful pupil, and he manfully hiding
from her and the world the new and
powerful feeling that such association
had developed in his big, generous
heart. BY the time she was seventeen,
Ella Lanston had become the toast of

this Christmas eve, and altho ugh the
ball and banquet in Ell,fs honor might
be lacking in some of the refnemcnts
essential in the fashionable world, they
were distinguished for u heartincss and
a freshness of enjoyment that put ev-
eryone at ease.
why don't you go up and dance
with Ella?" said Sam Britton to the
young superintendent, after the dance
had been going on for some time.
"That little dude has kept her all to
hisself ever since the frolic began"
81 haven't danced since was boy"
said Frank, who, from his position at
the farther end of the room, had been
following with his bravo brown eyes
every movement of Ella.
"Waal, l think yer as good dancer
as most of the boys har, and eff you
don't AK Ella blamed eff don't git her
to AK you" And before Frank could
think of protesting Sam Britton had
darted off.
The mining boss had plenty of assur-
ance, and he firmly believed that if
the young superintendent had more of
this quality his character would be
simply perfect. Already Sam Britton
had welcomed Ella and bade her "a
merry Christmas" eight hours in ad-
vance of the day; but this did not deter

INTERSTATE COMMERCE.
Abstract of the Annual Report of tho
Commissioners.

Abstract of the Annual Report of tho
Commissioners.
WASHINGTON, Dec, 20.-The report OF
the Interstate commerce commission
for the year ended November so, 1892
was on Monday transmitted to con-
gress. 1t opens with review of the
reasons which induced the passage of
the act to regulate commerce, which
are given in view of results realized
in administering the act, and the ne
cessity for amendments which expert
encc has disclosed. The main points
in the report are as follows:
II states that the commission is sratified At
oeing able TO add that many railroad managers
of the highest standing now concede the neceS
sity OF government regulation, and avow
themselves in favor of further enactments
that will make the regulation effective
The Interstate commerce law although the out
growth OF an aroused and determined public
sentiment, was compromise between diver
gent theories and conflicting interests, but
those who contrast the practices which obtained
prior to the law with methods and conditions
now existing will have no doubt of the pra0ai-
cal value of the statute in correcting public sen
timent, restraining injustice and enforcing rea-
sonable charges and equal treatment
The work of the commission is set forth at
length. including the interesting statement that
100000 tariff schedules; also II review of tho
hearings and Investigations and the coses dis
posed of during the year
Several amendments recommended by the
commission for the purpose OF strengthening
the law are discussed, especially those growing
out OF the decision Of the supreme court, that
the provisions OF section "a of the revised
statutes granting immunity to witnesses re
quired to testify concerning Illegal acts In
which they have participated are not broad
enough TO meet the safeguards guaranteed To
! such witness by the constitutions: and Judge
| Greshams recent decision that congress can
| not constitutionally require the federal courts
| to use their process TO compel tho production
| of testimony before non-judicial tribunal.
Regarding the proposed amendment by which
| pooling is to be permitted the report says:
The attempt TO secure the public from dis
| elimination, extortiOn favoritism, undue pref
erence and undue prejudice, aud to secure to
| every citizen just and reasonable rates and
| equal and exact treatment in all transporta-
| tion matters IL the very essence spirit
| would be vain 10 protect carriers from
| competitive attacks upon each other IL the gen
| eral public cannot be protected from the greater
| evils above enumerated. If the law ia 10 bo
| amended the two classes OF amendments should
go hand In hand until the law is maze as strong
| as its trainers intended in the matters OF fnir
| and stable rates, equal treatment and the sup
| preston OF favoriti3m"

tairs about thirty miles, as the crow
hies, or is supposed to fy, from Salt
Lake City, the famous capital of the
Mormons.
Six years ago the residents Of Lam
stou's Glen were, without exception,
"Jentiles, ~ as the non members of the
''Church of Luttcr-Day Saints" are
called, and they retain their slSepticism
rs to things Mormon up to the present
day. 1.-The Glen" as the residents call
it among themselves, is a small mining
town on the edge of a canyon, far be-
meath the depths of which rich silver
lode was discovered in 1851 by a young
mining engineer named Frank Hobart,
who had been educated at the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, in his native
city of Philadelphia, and VINO came
west to seek his fortune.
Lanstons Glen was by no means an
inviting place. Huts of stone and
adobe, in comparison with which the
irregularly set and ragged army tents
were palatial, constituted the principal
ebodes of the Inhabitants The Grand
Occidental hotel" owned and run" by
Capt. Lanston, was the most preten-
tious building in the place. That il had
grown, rather than been built from
any original design, was evident in the
many little additions and wings of
stone and adobe, and even of canvas,
that had been added to it from time to
time.
A plain covered with dazzling ex-
panses OF snow-white alkali, inter
spersed here and there with patches of
acrid creosote, and brittle, olive-col-
ored sage-brush, stretched away for
six miles on either hand to the mighty
mountain wall that appeared to shut
the strange place in from the outer
world.
Although Frank Hobart, who was 8
tall handsome, modest fellow, had dis
covered the mine that gave the place
an excuse for being, yet hc declined tc
have it named after him, prcferrine
the name which was finally adopted
because Capt. Lanstons wife was tho
first white woman who had ever Sc
foot there; though, encouraged by hcl
boldness, many of TIE miners subse
gucntiy brought their wives from tn'
states.

Hints for Christmas.

Don't ask your child what he wantA
unless you intend giving it to him.
Though money makes the mare go,
it makes Santa Claus come.
Don't buy your best girl a present on
the installment plan, as she might jilt
you before you had made all the pay
ments.
Rub the price mark off the present
unless it is an expensive one.
If you wish to surprise your girl
never ask her what she would like for
Christmas.
At Christmas time it is we'll enough
to ape the English as far as the plum
pudding is concerned.
Some persons never wish you a
merry Christmas unless they think
they will get something for doing so.
