While an order from military head

may be more than one way of obeying
II, according to the statement of an
old-timc member of n Michigan regi-
ment Early in the year 1868 there
came an order from headquarters,
Central di ,trict of Texas, requiring
company drills twice each day In every
regiment in the command. As the
weather was hot and the regiment was
soon to be mustered out, the colonel
thought compliance with this order
useless, aud 50 ordered two daily drills
of five minutes each. Knowledge of
this evasion Of orders reached the gem
ernl commanding, and forthwith there
came an order for drill of two hours
each day, In compliance with which the
following order was read at evening
parade; headquarters ID Michigan
infantry volunteers. In obedience to
orders from superior headquarters,
there win be company drills from half
past eight to half-past ten o'clock u. IN.
each day. The commander OF the rcgi-
ment desires that the most shady spots
be selected for drills, and that the men
shall not be exposed to violent exercise
" the heat of the sun" The drill took
place. A shady spot was carefully Sc
lectcd, and for two hours the orders ~
stack arIns" aud 'rest" were cheer al
ly followed. Youths Companion.

ANOTHER DISTINGUISHED VISITOR
Prince Nicholas Scherbatow, of st. Peters
burg, In Salt Lake.

Prince Nicholas Scherbatow, of st. Peters
burg, in Salt Lake.
Prince Nicholas Scherbatow, hailing
chamber of commerce yesterday and had
a long talk with Secretary Snyder about
the trip he has made through the United
States, and other topics.
The prince himself is an officer in the
Russian cavalry service, and has grad
uated with honor from the military acad-
envy at St. Petersburg. He is an accom-
plished linguist, speaking Russian, Ger
mau, French, Italian and English with
ease and fuency. His father is leading
man in his native country, and is fan
cier of blooded stock. He owns one OF
finest studs in Russia. His father is also
owner of a large beet sugar factory.
The prince has been making a tour o1
this broad country ever since the first OF
August, when be first landed on our
shores. He has seen all of our large cities
and has taken in the fair in a Systematic
fashion. He has been looking especially
| into the methods pursued in the beet
sugar industry, and has travelled directly
| from Grand Island, Neb., to this city for
the purpose of inspecting the works al
Lehi.
The first day of his arrival here he
cordially received and entertained. Yes
terday he went to Lehi and spent a
profitable day in looking over the beet
raising, irrigating and manufacture OF
sugar at that point. He pronounced the
system to be admirable and the works to
be as complete as he had seen anywhere.
He saws that there are several hundred
sugar factories IN Russia, all of which
are owned by private individuals instead
of corporations, as in this country.
great many large fortunes have been
made by some of the nobility through
this industry.
AS to Salt Lake city the Prince has only
words of commentator, az he thinks it
is the most attractive city he has visited
in the whole United States. He was es-
pecially struck with the width and clean
iiness OF our streets, as these qualities are
uncommon in American cities. Our rows
of poplar trees ia different parts of the
city reminded him OF the south of Russia,
where they abound.
Remarking on the timber laws of Russia,
the Prince said that each holder of thirty
acres of land is entitled to cut timber
from one acre of government land. The
peasants, he said, are quite prosperous,
as each has from three to ten acres OF
good farming ground, and labor is cheap.
Yesterday the noble visitor left for San
Francisco. After spending some time in
that city, he will sojourn IN the Yellow
stone Park for time and will then re-
turn to his home

A CARD FROM MRS. DYER.
The Lady States Her side of the contro-
versy.

SALT LAKE CITY. Utah, Sept. %, 1898.
To the Editor of THE HERALD:
In view of the publicity of the case in
the probate court wherein 1 objected to
the accounts of the executors of my hus-
band estate, and in which the Judge
who decided it seems to have criticised my
action, have something to say. l was
not aware that one who questioned, in an
open way, the doings of an executor OF
an estate was open to criticism. have
always supposed such things to be lawful,
but it seems to be an open question in
this city
The printed report of the Judges de-
cision says: "Had she been left alone
this investigation would never have been
necessary. She appeared to have the same
confidence in the integrity, honesty and
capabilitv of the executors that her hus-
band had entertained for them for many
years of his life. The court was con-
WINGED in its own mind that there was q
skeleton in the closet which had been
pouring poison into Mrs. Dyer's ears,
and that had prompted her to do what
she did,"
wish TO say that l am not satisfied
with the way in which Mr.. Henderson,
the chief executor. is handling the estate.
/ The sale OF the ranch for 10000, when it
was proven to have been mortgaged for
SIS, 800 the same day, and his advising me
to consent to the sale OF the estates one
fifth interest in the Oriental building for
q, 800, he knowing that the income from
the estates said interest was almost 500
per aunum, makes me at loss to know
why the court or executors should say
that 1 was poorly advised by the attor-
neys or any one else.
The talk about the protection of the
orphans of Mr.. Dyer is all bosh. 1 I'm
their mother and feel as kindly toward
them as does the guardian named In the
will. and probably through my motherly
instincts will look after their interests in
the future quite as well as the gentleman
who appears in court in the capacity o.
executor, guardian and attorney. Yours
very truly, ELLA F. DYER.

Petition for a Service Between Oasis and
Ely

A petition has been gotten up among
residents of eastern Nevada and Beaver
and Millard counties in this terri
tory, asking for the establishment
OF mail service from Oasis, on
the Union Pacific to Ely, the county seat
of White Pine county, Nevada, taking in
the gold camp OF Osceola, Taylor, Ward
and all intermediate towns. This route
would bring the mail to the people
twenty-four hours earlier than by the
present service and would be great con-
venience and benefit to the people of that
region, who are deeply interested in the
movement, as well as to the merchants
and business men OF this city, the re-
lations between Salt Lake and that Sec
ton being very close.

THE TEMPLE IN SOAP.
A Reproduction of the Great Building in
Novel Form.

a Reproduction of the Great Building in
Novel Form.
Crowds of people yesterday stood in
front OF the show windows of the Barnes,
Hardy company, attracted by the odd
spectacle of the Salt Lake temple carved
on huge piece of Bee Hive soap. The
great bar of soap came from the Grant
Soap company's works, and the carving
was done by local artist. 1t attracts a
great deal OF attention, first because of
the clever reproduction OF the great build
ing, second because the soap comes from
home factory. Mr.. B. F. Grant, man-
ager Of the works, states that they will
soon be in their new factory, where they
hope to be able to keep up with their
orders. AS it is now, they are embar-
raised by the receipt of more orders than
they can take care of. This shows that
the new soap has taken strong hold OF
the public, and is especially gratifying,
as the success of this company means a
big annual amount of money kept at
home.
