Needed No Light.

Payson Header: The mass meeting
called by the mayor to consider the
municipal ownership of an electric light
was held in the tabernacle last Tues
day night. Quite a number of citizens
were in attendance. Mayor Peery was
elected chairman and F. A. Hush sec
rotary. The advantages and disad-
vantages of the city owning its cleo
trio plant was talked upon pro and con
for some time, when T. E. Daniels
moved that it be the sense of the meet
ing that such ownership be declared
desirable.
The question was debated at some
length and a statement of what the
Payson plant was doing and could do
was given. Bishop Hush was the
principal opponent TO the motion. 1t
was shown that the plant now running
here had a capacity of 500 lights and
could be run at an expense of from
S13o to $3.50 month. The vote being
called the motion was lost and thus
ended an effort in the cause of
progress and economy.

Decline of the Dance.

Mt. Pleasant Pyramid: The Salt
Lake and Ogden papers have been not
ing the structures made by the county
papers of Utah upon the mannerism
permitted at places of amusement, es-
pecially at dances. There has been no
premium whatever put upon respecta-
bility and decency at dance halls, and
the result is they are crowded with all
classes OF people-drunken young men,
boisterous and rude young people, i'll
hammered persons-all of which have a
tendency to. and has succeeded in this
city, in driving elderl.a and more re-
served people from the dance ROOM
One who is familiar with the faces
and visitants at the dancing halls a
few years ago cannot help but notice.
on entering hall now, what radical
change has taken place The more
quiet and dignified class has almost
ceased to enter the ball room The
reason for this lies in the fact that there
are a great many people who enjoy

Rough on Rabbits.

Pocatello Tribune: This week and
next will be trying times for the long
cared, hump-backed jack rabbit of
Idaho.
On the 18th the grand annual jack
rabbit drive will take place at Market
Lake and will be participated in by
400 or 500 people. Last year about 1000
rabbits were slaughtered and this year
bigger killing than that is expected.
The sage brush flats about Market
Lake are great breeding places for the
pests and they are certain to be driven
up in thousands.
In Washington county a grand five
days rabbit hunt has been arranged
for next week between two teams of
some 20 men each. There will be much
powder and shot wasted, but without
doubt hundreds of rabbits killed.
similar hunt will take place at
Salmon City, and great will be the
slaughter there, too.
Several rabbit hunts and drives are
planned for Oneida and Cassia coun-
ties and we have heard of a great coy
ote drive in Nez Perez, but have not
yet received definite details of these
events.

it duplicated here in Paris. We have
excellent water power and a number

If Paris was incorporated, the city

for chance to steal the hay or grain
out of every sleigh that is driven into
town. 1t would be an excellent thing
to have this nuisance abated.

he was able TO get out without noise
into the open air.
Dusk was come, and the mist was
thicker than ever. Sir Alexander shiv-
cred, and staggered against the cottage
wall.
Why had he skunk out? Why had
he not confronted herf Accused, con-
founded her? -. He did not himself

mountable repugnance to meeting her,
10 looking upon her face in the pew,
horrible circumstances, had gripped
him and held him like wise.
But he struggled with himself, pulled
himself together, and rushed at the
door of the hut, which he pushed quick
ly open. Jock seemed to have been
waiting for him. He stared at his mas
ter. BY a great effort Sir Alexander,
while he could not dissemble the pal
lor of his face, managed to control his
voice.
"Lady Auchlean has come-is inside
the cottage" he said in perfectly dry,
calm manner. Tell her / am here,

Her husband, appearing suddenly be-

by her startling beauty, as if she had
been a stranger. She had lit the can
dies, two on the table and two on the
high, narrow shelf over the fireplace.
and in their fiickering light the dia-

ordered by the wind, made a sort OF
hazy cloud about her head and face
She had taken off her hat, which she
held in her hands, and had loosened the
tweed jacket she was wearing.
And Sir Alexander, looking at his
wife with new and startled eyes, re-
allied for the first time hat, though
there is many wife in the world who
may be neglected, mis- wife was not the
sort of woman to be neglected long.
The question was, how fur had she
gone?
Not jealous of his wife's love, but
of his own honor, he trembled for the
answer to this question. How many
meetings had there been in this lonely
cottage among the hills? One or two,
perhaps-perhaps q dozen. He must
control himself, and presently he would
know all. The lover would come, and
then the truth would be out, and the
guilty pair would be at His mercy.
And then for the divorce court, Auch-
lean VS.. Auchlean. Sir Alexander, in
sort of walking nightmare, saw 1t
all before him-scandal, worry, dis
grace.
Meanwhile, the hesitating manner In
which he stood, his silence. his inquir-
ing face, put ideas into her subtle
feminine BRAIN.
"Why, Alexander, surely IL isn't you?
Really you? feel as if it must be
your ghost I thought you were in
Buckinghamshire?"
She laughed, perhaps rather hysteri-
celly. and came round the table, close
TO him. He did not offer to touch her,
though she smiled invitingly up in his
face. Jack. with his eyes in front Of
him. had taken himself Oft dumbly.
"I was In BuclSinghamshire this
morning" answered Sir Alexander,
stiflly. "But I've come bock, as you
see. And what-what are you doing
here?"

wishing 10 spoil his later effect. She
turned TO Turkish mirror which hung
on the wall opposite TO the window.
and began to button up her coat.

putting on her hat quickly and then
coming rapidly round to the door.
"Aren't YOU coming with me?' and she
looked at him with n smile which at
any other time he would have thought
winning. ut isn't very often. you
know, that get my husband for an es-
cort."
Sir Alexander was taken aback. Did
she mean TO repronch him? or was this
merely impudence, the effrontery of n
frnzen woman?
lie stnmmered as he tried 20 answer.
He was bewildered, did not know what
Co say. But he stood between her and
the door. and did not move for her In
rass out. The thought witch was in
his mind, struggling with certain new
impressions Of his wife, which, in these
strange circumstances he was receiv-
ing. was that he must keep her here un-
vi her lover came.
So he shook his head. and directed
her with decisive gesture. Co sit down.
