BECOMING RICH AND RECONCILED.
Thus days and weeks and months wen
by until stvea years had come and gon
since Cain turned face from home, ant
yet no land of Nod in sight; and rs 70
a wife, be had about given up all hope
of ever seeing one. and bad become rec
onclled to his state of single blessednesa
But he liked bis nomadic life better thai
blowing and reaping. He was by thi
time, also, . wealthy stock man, SO far q
numbers were concerned. He looked
upon his vast herds with pleasure, for il
those days cattlemen were rated accord
ing to the number Of branded stock they
possessed, as at the present day; and i
prices were low in those days the owner'
had some show at least, foI there were nc
ruinous taxes to pay and no tax sales
to haunt the stock breeder.
Although he could not help thinking Of
poor Abel. yet Cain was fast sreconcilin2
his conscience to the deed. He excused
himself and laid the fault to the sheep
and he also began to feel only distant
relationship to Adam, inasmuch as be
blamed him for eating the forbidden
fruit, by which sin and misery were en-
tailed upon the innocent children.
He thought none but Adam should
have been punished for disobedience, Al
be was the acknowledged and recognized
head of the family and should alone ha!e
been held responsible. He often would
say aloud to himself, II couldn't help il
if was born q murderer; my parents
are to blame for my sins, for it they had
remained sinless their children would
have been sinless ALSO"
So the farther he got away from the
fatherland the more Cain censured others
and condoned his own guilt, and ut last
began to rejoice that he had cut away
from family that had . record Of sin
stamped upon it for all time to come.
He would travel alone through the world
and with NO temptations to do wrong be
would be sinless.

Pocatello Herald: Wonders will
never cease, and Cupid will never
stop shooting darts at the unwary
men. Mrs. w. D. Johnston, for.
merly of this city, whose husband
secured q divorce about six months
ago, was married to a Salt Lake
banker the other day, 50 says dame
rumor. Mr.. Johnston, who depart
ed from this hamlet of unsuspect-
ing people some time ago under a
forgery cloud, is now in South
Africa, no doubt looking for a Boer
helpmate. And 80 they go-di-
vorced women, forgers and fortunes.
Most of the large machinery at the
Shoshone shops is being removed
to the Pocatello shops and is now
being placed in readiness for use
This is pretty good evidence that
the shops here are not only perma-
nently located but also that they
will be improved and at no distant
day enlarged. The shop payroll
for this month will show quite an
increase over that for last month.
The shop payroll last month was
$4,000; engineers and freman's
roll, $14 $50, and the estimated pay
roll of the trainmen, $13, 900.

December snow storm which pre-
vailed Friday night of last week.
Saturday morning dawned upon

had just peeped out to bask in

ON THE BORDERS OF TIE LAND OF NOD

I am owner of the rivers and land; lord

80 Cain, when he had viewed his new
possessions DER, made camp to stay, and
built him house of boughs and skins
upon the banks of pretty little lake in
a grove in sight of the great meadows
upon which his herds toasted and fatted.
But Cain, after be saw that his stock
and dogs were content to remain in their

hi. new found Paradise and to ascertain
more fully its extent and resources. He
took his weapons, his flute, pack Of his
