Utsh's Odd Minerals.
ABSOLUTELY PURE

The mountains and valleys of Utah are perfect magazines of odd minerals, some found only sparingly in other places, while great many kinds are plentiful there that are found in no other locality on the globe. ''Ten- tite," a soft, resinous substance found in quantities in the Bear River mountains, was unknown to the min eralogist prior to 1890, and is even now wholly unknown in other quarters of the earth. Experts who have given it thorough tests are of the opinion that it will finally become amber of the finest quality. ''Ozokerite," a species of natural mineral wax, a rarity else where, is found in large quantities in this locality of queer mineral sub stances. It is an acid and water proof, and makes the finest insulating material known. ''Gilsonite," another variety of mineral wax, contains eighty per cent of carbon or asphalt in it's pure form. The Utah vein is almost three feet wide and mile in length.

He Didn't Sing.

At a recent social event in the coun- try there was present a dignifed and very slender young man from town who, it was easy to see, had very good opinion of himself. A not altogether fattering reputation, acquired by his alleged tenor voice, had preceded him to the back woods, and soon after his arrival he was surrounded by bevy of mischievous rustic msidens, who begged him for song. Like many young sing CTS he needed much persuasion. While the girls insisted, an old farmer, who had been standing near by for some time, suddenly cried out: 'Sing for 'em. young man. I know you kin sing you've got legs so much like a mawkin' birds" He did not sing.-Pensacola News.
