INDIAN WARS IN UTAH.

Written for the Blackhawk Reunion by
a Fellow Comrade
MORONI L. PRATT.
Comrades, years ago we gathered,
We were young and buoyant then,
Just the kind our country needed,
Just the age for fighting men.
Blackhawk then was on the war path,
Leader of an Indian band,
Cruel as could be a savage,
Dealing death throughout the land.
From the south came news of battle,
News of cruel Indian war,
Many, friends were slain in Sanpete,
Scalped and weltering in their gore,
Then the boys of Utah county
At the call for volunteers,
We. my comrades, quickly rallied
To protect the south frontier.
Salt Lake also sent her quota,
FIeber Kimball in command,
All were brothers, all were comrades,
All were soldiers in the land.
Forward now rang out the bugle,
Captain Conover led us through;
Boys" said he, well on 10 Sanpete,
For I guess they're needing you.''
Well, you know the rest, my comrades,
How we strove to do the right.
How we secuted, herded, guarded,
Had our fun in camp at night;
How our comrade, William Tunbridge,
Wounded there at Gravel Ford,
Got his man, a real red savage;
Made one less among their horde.
That was sixty-six, my comrades,
There were many out that year.
Near a thousand, altogether,
Jolly Mormon volunteers.
General Wells, the gray-haired veteran,
Father, brother, soldier true.
Came in person to command is;
Come to see us safely through.
Then again in sfxty-seven.
Men were wanted as before,
We responded fellow comrades,
And were in the camp once more.
Well my story must not lengthen,
Twas the same, almost, again;
But I now would mention comrades,
Faithful comrades, who were slain.
Inafor Vance and Houtz, our sergeant,
Bravely fought and nobly died;
They no more will hear the bugle,
Only on the other side.
When the trump of God shall waken
Soldiers, patriots, true and brave,
Through the glorious resurrection
They will rally from the grave.
Seventy of our friends have fallen
BY the hand of savage foe,
But it cost the red man dearly,
Twice as many were laid low.
Now we hold this grand reunion,
We are young again tonight,
Though our locks are turning silver,
Soon to change to purer white.
Joy and peace be yours forever,
May no evil eer befall;
Comrades, brothers, here assembled,
Happy greeting to you all
May we meet beyond the river,
In that land so pure and free.
Bound by strongest ties of friendship,
Lasting as eternity.

MACHINE THAT HUNTS TREASURE
Soon to be Tested in Search for a
Pirates HOard on COcOs Island.

Peter Smith of Vancouver, B. c., has
a mineral locating machine which he
claims will enable him to find hidden
treasure. The contrivance has not
been perfected yet. AT present it is
described by the San Francisco Chron-
icle as resembling a wooden box with
a tin fog horn sticking through a hole
in one side and suspende from d string
within the box Mr.. Smith was asked
if he would practically test the ma
chimes powers to locate the treasure
and he willingly consented. The in
ventor of the strange machine re-
manned in the city while the number
of curious citizens wrapped up $50 in
silver, and going three miles from town
hid the money beneath a bush in Stan
ley Park. The tin Indicator was
pointed in the direction of Stanley
Park at l o'clock in the afternoon, and
at O'Clock the machine had guided
the inventor to within 500 yards of the
spot where the treasure was hidden
1t was getting dark and those present
decided to assist Mr.. Smith by direct
ing him whiting 200 yards of the place.
Then the fun commenced. Mr..
Smith moved the machines pointer
carefully about until the mysterious
inside Of the box began to make a
peculiar rafting sound, and the in
of the treasure" He then put on a
rubber apron and advanced cautiously,
the machine continuing to family rat
tie. Suddenly it stopped and Mr..
Smith said: II have passed the spot -
He walked slowly backwards, and the
moment the box recommended it's aud
ible manifestations ran the pointer to
the earth and dug up the handkerchief
containing the $780, Capt. Van Bremner
of Cocos island fame has interested
himself in the invention, and he and
the inventor have already started a
subscription list with fair prospects of
raising capital to perfect the machine
and put on record the one-hundredth
attempt to unearth the pirate treas
ure at Cocos Island. A number of men
Of accredited shrewdness believe in the
machine and will lend their personal
and financial aid toward the treasure
island scheme.

who wonld have ample time to keep
the books, and attend to all the bust
ness Of the company; we recommend
that accurate monthly reports with
vouchers be submitted to the board.
We recommend that immediate steps
be taken to collect the amounts due
from the various stockholders, and
where not alreaday done, that same
be closed up by notes bearing l per
cent. interest.
The small total of dividends of 1898,
$31 .SS2.27, was due to the fact that
$9S18.64, owing for improvements, an
overdraft to Mccormick & Co. for ST.
214.S3. and $1667.41 to stockholders, in
terest, ETC., in 1892, was paid for dur
ing 1893
We find that the stocks held by the
company have been reduced to their
present market value and the shrink
age charged to profit and loss account;
on the other hand, the value of the
real estate has been appreciated by
raising the figures from 1927, 500, shown
in the printed statement. to S330.OOO
shown by the books January l. 1894, a
difference of $50, 500.
We further find that the original
stockholders or incorporators, have
never conceived the idea that the Groes-
beck company is any one but them
selves. We find that a notary bill of
$3.50 was paid for service to John w
Greenman. and all of said services
were for individual Groesbecks; $50 for
keeping cemetery lots belonging to 9TH
ers than the company. We also find
that a Mrs. Fordyce is a -pensioner of
the company at $40 per month; that
livery bill of s24 was paid for attend
ance at S. S. Groesbecl5's child's fun
eral.
We find the company has notes as

Killed in a Mine.

Peter Focchetti, coal miner who
has been employed in one of the com
pany mines at Waldo station, two miles
west of Los Cerutos, N. NJ, was
killed in the mine some time Monday
by premature blast. Focchetti, who
was a single man, lived by himself in
a small house near the mine and no
one saw him go to work and, although
killed some time during the night, was
not discovered until this morning,
when his mining partner went into the
mine to work and discovered him be-
meath a huge pile of coal and rock.
The unfortunate man was very popular
among the miners of Waldo and was
"a native of Switzerland. He was
buried today at 8 o'clock.

The lightning rod takers are still
working the farmers of Boise valley
David Gekeler had some experience
with the scoundrels.
He says one of the men, VINO gave
his name as c. Castle, wanted to put
UP rods on his barn as an ADVERTISE
ment, agreeing to charge Mr.. Gekeler
but $500 Gekeler signed an order and
when the thieving sharps had finished
the work they brought in a bill for
$3.50.
Mr.. Gekeler very naturally refused
to pay the bill. He says he does not
know to what extent the contract has
been changed, but it is thought there
has been no alterations at all; that
Gekeler merely walked into cleverly
arranged trap. A close inspection of a
duplicate left with him shows he had
ordered something like 400 feet of
lightning rods at 671z cents foot. A
condition of the agreement is that the
order be negotiated Immediately upon
the work being completed. None Of
these things did Mr.. Gekeler know
until he had signed the paper and they
worry him not a little.-Statesman.

FRANK GREENwELL's CASE.
A Utah Man Who Got Into Trouble
Mt Oakland,

III
Some days ago The Herald published
particulars of the arrest of Frank
Greenwich an Ogden man, at Oakland,
Cal, on the charge of stealing goods
from the firm for which he worked in
the latter city The San Francisco
Examiner, of Tuesday, says:
Frank Greenwich, who has been be-
fore the public for several days as
Fred Greenwald, the Mormon, who
robbed his employers to support his two
families and who yesterday completed
a sentence at the city prison for petty
larceny, has been held on a more SER
ious charge.
On the prison register his name now
appears as charged with adultery and
as en- route to Ogden.
When GreenWell was arrested here
the chief of police telegraphed the Og-
den authorities. He was Immediately
wired back to hold Greenwich, as he
was wanted, and that a warrant would
be telegraphed.
This charge against Greenwell is an
old one and he was arrested on it here
in March last, but was allowed to go
free, after lying in Jail for several
days, because of the failure Of the
United States authorities in Utah to
forward extradition papers in the case.
This time the chief of police refused
to hold him unless the warrant was
forthcoming. 1t was accordingly tele-
graphed in full and was signed by
Judge James A. Miner. The indictment
against the man was dated September
10. 1892.
The warrant gives Frank Greenwell
as the mans true name. An officer is
on his way here from Utah to take
Greenwich back.
Wife No. 1 is by this time in Utah
with her six little children and wife
No. is also in the land of Saints
with her three children, while the
Bush-street wife, or No. 2, with her
two little white-headed girls, will be
left alone in Oakland. But she is
pretty independent, as she has always
supported herself by her sewing and
says Greenwel never gave her very
much help

1ND1A's FINANCIAL PROSPECTS.
The Gladstone Ministry Criticised
for the State of Chaos.

y
for the State of Chaos.
The London Globe says that he. In
dian financial prospects are in a state
of chaos and without any tendency to
d satisfactory solution. Continuing,
the Globe remarks
zone great experiment has collapsed
and a reversal of the attempt made in
June to subject political economy to
official regulations really amounts to
a confession of failure. The whole
financial situation in India must now
be faced, and the intervention of
sound economist is wanted with a.
large commission to overhaul the whole
subject and with proportionate power
to give effect to his recommendations ;"
The st. James Gazette severely crit
cises the past Indian policy and saws
that after demoralizing the trade since
June, the Indian governments unfor-
tunate experiment has completely
broken down, and that its tardy re-
treat from an untenable position also
means that Mr.. Gladstone's govern
ment is at last alive to the hazard
Gus and desperate nature of the finance
ial game the Indian authorities are
playing. In conclusion the ST. James
Gazette says:
IF the government dismisses the
idea of establishing q gold standard in
India and abandoning cheap for expen-
sive currency, enriching China and
Japan at he cost of India, then the
dangers of the past six months will
assume less portentious dimensions.
In the meanwhile, Saturdays decision
means a further fall with no imme-
date prospect of steadiness in the
price of silver"

Independent. Both are heavy weights

has been forced to return on account
of the snow and ice in the mountains.
The party reached the mouth of Black

five feet deep, and the river was
choked with floating ice, and after
camping for three days in the snow,
waiting a clear-up they had to return
as the snow kept falling more daily
and the ice gorges grew larger. The
