Embarrassed BY Bad Eyes.

An English paper tells story of a we'll
known bishop who suffers from impaired
vision. He recently held leyee. AT
length a guest approached and said;
sHow do you do, my lord. My mother
wishes to be kindly remembered to YOU, ="
"Ah.n said the bishop, s'that is very
good of her.~And how is the dear old
soul? Nothing like good old mother.
Be sure to take care of your old mother.
Good morning. The bishop did not in
least know who his visitor was, and said
to his footman: "Who was thet?'' The
servant replied: 'sThe last gentleman
who left your lordship's reception is the
Duke of Connaught. "-Argonaat.

school education. In 1857 he planted a
seventy-five acre orchard in California,
which was at the time the largest in the
state. Since 1867 he has been prominent
in California politics, serving as sheriff
of Sacramento in 1878, aud as member of
the state constitutional convention In
1879. For several terms he was speaker
of the state house of representatives. For
seven years he was president of the Cali
fornia State Agricultural society. For
the past ten years he has been superin-
tendent of the state board of Agriculture.

wagon if Cooney would stand the expense
of making certain alterations and pay the
excess in freight charges.
A letter to McIlroy from James Ander-
son, a member of the city council fire
committee at that time, was read on this
same subject, in which Mr.. Anderson re-

sTANToN's BID.
McIlroy here stated that Stanton's ORR
ginal bid to the Ogden council on a
Holloway engine had been mailed at
Ogden that night and would arrive here
this morning.
Chief Stanton said that he had sent
IN no bid, except that Mr.. Holloway had
telegraphed him, asking him to offer his
engine for 81, $50. and ne had written q
letter to the mayor of Ogden to that effect.
He never received any offer OF commits
sion or reward. Mr.. Holloway had
promised TO pay his expenses to Ogden,
but had never done so.
Mcllroy had no questions to ask In
cross examination, and Councilman Law
son took shy at the chief, asking him if
1t was customary for chiefs OF ire depart
ments to make trips about the country at
their own expense recommending and
testing fire apparatus.
Stanton replied that it was customary;
that the fire department chiefs were
anxious and willing to help each other out
and see that they got good apparatus.
Lawson-Mr. Stanton, you must have
spent great deal OF time and money on
account of disinterested friendship?
Stanton-Yes; did.
Judge Powers-Lots OF other people
have done the same. / did lately at
Washington with very poor results.
Captain Donovan then took the stand
and in answer to Judge Powers said he
had seen McIiroy at Ogden and had gone
after him from Salt Lake. McIlroy
vigorously objected to the admission OF
that kind of evidence as it was introduced
solely for the purpose of damaging his
(McIlroy's) character, and had nothEng
to do with the case.
Judge Powers-It is highly proper that
the character of the man who brings
these charges should be known to the
committee.
inadmissible and Donovan was excused.
Deputy Sheriff O'Brien was next sworn
and testified that McIlroy, with Moore
and others. was in the habit of frequent
ing bis saloon some three years ago and
had asked witness to spend some money
on Stanton, as he was expecting to sell
some hose to the city and this would
make him solid with Stanton and help
him out. McIlroy put up no money for
the purpose.
Here the case rested, and Karrick
moved that all evidence rejecting on the
character of McIlroy be stricken out.
Chairman Beardsley said it was not nee
essary, as the committee would exercise
proper consideration when the evidence
was taken under advisement.
There may be some delay in the com
mittee presenting their report to the
Council owing to the illness of Stem
ographer Vanderberger who took the
notes of Saturdays sitting and it Is I'M
likely that the report will be ready for to
nights council meeting.

CITY COUNCIL.
Simmons introduced resolution for the
sale OF 100 feet fronting street by $50
feet back, located on the court house cor
ner. In support of his resolution he
stated that Provo city was in debt to the
amount of about 50 600, beside having
to pay interest on Provo city bonds,
and the only way out of
the obligations was to dispose OF city
property. Wilson supported Simmons
and said he thought it better to pay off
the debts than fight judgments from the
courts.
McEwan was OF the opinion that this
property should be reserved for a CITY
building, and said that the people had
once spoken in strong terms against this
proposition, which is an old one.
After considerable debate, the ayes and
nays were called upon the adoption OF the
resolution. Ali voted aye except McEwan
and Halliday. The next question to be
determined IS the price the city will ac-
cept for this piece of ground.
Some routine business was attended to
and council adjourned for one week.

In selecting or purchasing
your advertising space. By
that we mean, don't insist on
getting the best and paying
the least money for it. There
is such a thing as being too
shreWd and too driving in
a contract. 1t
has become a custom with
some managers of mercantile
institutions, to listen very
attentively, admitevery point
and then offer to close the
deal at just one-half the
ngure quoted by the adver-
Using agent. If the solicitor
says, "that space with posi-
ton guaranteed, will cost
YOU $1,000 for the year, the
so-called shreWd bargain
driver often says, ''he will
give you $3.50 and close the
deal at once" The result is,
very often the solicitor goes
prepared to drop in price, and
consequently accommodate
the shrewd % manager.
Understand your business;
comprehend your wants; be
capable of estimating the
value of an article and if you
WANT it, buy it and pay the
figure quoted.
