Tanning the Colt,

The future value and usefulness of
'our colt depends greatly on his train
.ng. Human life is often saved or
sacrificed, according as the colt has
been trained. Convince him you are
MS superior and his friend, and the
foundation for his future education
is we'll laid. This is the most easily
accomplished the first few days OF his
lite, as he can then offer but little re-
Eistance to your wishes, and is, cOnse-
quently, more impressed with your
power over him. Hold him firmly
but carefully, so as to do him no in
jury, and never let go while he is
struggling. Use all the little arts
you can to cultivate his acquaintance
and gain his good will. Halter break
when two or three weeks old. DO
not tie him at all until he has become
used to the re straint or the rein, and
then for awhile tie in company with
his dam. Train him to give up his
feet and have them attended to. BE
careful not to lift his hind ones too
high, or you will unbalance him so
he cannot stand. Do not make any
of his lessons too long and wearisoinc
Keep him gentle until old enough to
drive short distance to light vehicle.

plainly and only when necessary: too

view of ascertaining what additional
minerals should be procured to COM
plete the proposed mining display.
The announcement was made that
the county court of Davis county had
just appropriated 5000 to the Midwin-
ter Fair fund, and the county would
vate subscriptions. The meeting was
held yesterday morning, all members
of the court being present. Hon David

ture from Davis county, Jacob Miller,
member of the bureau of statistics
and information, and President Hub
bard of the Salt Lake chamber of com
merce, were present and addressed the
court in advocacy of the proposed ap-
preparation. The speeches were very
enthusiastic, and the gentlemen made
a showing which could not well help
making an impression upon their hear
ers. Judge Haight was appointed a
member of the executive committee by
the court.
Judge ]. D. Jones, Utah county mem
Der of the Executive Committee, was
present and stated that Utah county
is fully alive to the fact that it will re-
quire the exercise of considerable en-
ergy to properly place her resources be-
fore the world. Under his superinten-
dency a full collection of minerals,
building stone, onyx, marble, agricul-
tural and manufactured products is be-
ing made.
The committee will meet again at 8
O'Clock this afternoon.

Collector Leonard has collected $742-
1884 of the city, county, territorial
and school taxes, out of a possible
s812, 900, and he is still piling up the
cash in his depository. This speaks
well for the people of this county and
is a record not equalled by and other
section in the United States of equal
or comparatively equal-assessed valu-
alton. BY the first of the year, when
the collector will make a settlement
with the city, county, territory and
schools, there will not be 4 per cent.
Of the taxes outstanding and the final
sale Of delinquent properties will be
comparatively light. A few sales are
made daily in order to keep within the
letter of the law and this course will
be pursued until the final windup.

waves are transmitted through this
medium in all conceivable directions
with the same velocity, some faint con-
ception may be had of its intense
activity.
The completely of the waves is trans

its own wave length, there being about
So 900 waves to the inch in red light,
and more than $4,000 in violet, and
outside the visible spectrum there are
less in number in one direction and
more in the other Every self-lumin-
Gus body in the universe is imparting
to this medium waves of these varying
lengths, all travelling with a sensibly
constant velocity. When it is con-
sidered that the countless number OF
stars and suns scattered promiScuOuSly
throughout limitless space, are produc-
ing such waves, radiating from each
lin all possible directions, it would
seem that, if they did not actually
destroy each other, they would SO in
terfere as to produce confusion worse

the eye of an observer would be value

believes that this medium truly and

acknowledgements that planets and
other solid bodies may destroy the
waves that intercept.

that the star is double, although the
most powerful telescope had failed to
divide it. that the two revolye about

probable orbit. masses and velocity.
Or, perhaps he finds, as In the re-
markable star of 1892, that it changes
from a star to a nebula in a few
months. In all this, no question is
iraised in regard to the integrity of the
record nor whether in its long journey

this is little more than the shadow of

WINS Is ALL RIGHT.
The Democratic War Horse Will BE
in the Legislature.

The general opinion among those
who have looked into the matter is
that Hon. A W. WINS, the representa-
tive-elect from the Seventeenth dis
trict, will sit in the coming legislature,
notwithstanding his appointment as
agent to the Shebit Indians. His case
is unlike any of the contests, because
no question as to his eligibility was
raised during the canvass, and a GER
tificate of election was duly issued to
him. This gives the gentleman his
seat in the legislature. BY the time
the legislature convenes, it is presum-
ed that he will no longer hold the APP
pointment as Indian agent, which viii
remove the only alleged disqualifica-
ton. Therefore, having received his
certificate, and entering the house
without any disqualification, it is the
opinion that under the Edmunds-Tuck-
err act Mr.. WINS will be fully entitled to
his seat

The Cultivation of Special senses.

Concerning the special cultivation of
the senses, 1t may be mentioned that
at Washington city women only are
employed in the most delicate manipu-
lation Of bank notes, and more par
ticularly that of worn out bills. In
the bureau of engraving and printing
the currency is counted with the quick
precision of a machine by women In
some of the largest paper factories
women arrive at phenomenal rapidity
in counting by touch reams of paper.
In the dead letter Office the most sue
cessfuI decipherer is a woman. The ar
argument holds, however, so far as
the occupations of women remove her
from the necessity of cultivating the
senses beyond the practical necessi-
ties of ordinary life. She may accept
these limitations with thankfulness.
When the senses are developed beyond
a certain point they cease to contribute
to happiness.-New York Evening Sun.
