serious. Saturday night he grew worse
and his brother Thomas D. Dee, who
was then presiding over a ses-
sion of the board of education.
was summoned. Mr.. Dee left his
brother James resting quietly and in

tient grew rapidly worse and expired

bedside.

Provo.s philosonher.

Provo. June 6.-Provo has a perpetual
motion philosopher in the person of P.
P. Rathkey who declares that he has
shattered all theories that friction is
antagOnistic TO continuity of motion
and that he is able to produce ma
chine simple in construction but the
paragon of perfection which will when
once set to work continue on until the
crack of doom without the aid of
steam, electricity or any other force.
Notice has been filed with the county
recorder and it has been duly recorded
that this discovery has been made. and
nearly two pages of very large book
contains the description of this self
propeiling mill. He states in his de-
scription that no wheels were used in
the construction, despite the accusation
that he had many in active operation
in his own brain. The machine is con-
structed on plane. slightly elevated in
The centre, upon which were set rolling
balls which evolved power by their in
creased distance from the centre and
were regulated by a pendulum.
Although he was advised that per-
petual motion fends had been juggling
with that same problem from time i'm
memorial no man can convince Rath-
key that he is not the original and only
discoyerer

A ream of writing paper is set down at
$1,000 and bottle of ink cost $780,
In the list of accounts the names of
many men who We're prominent in
Utah long ago, in fact but few of the
prominent pioneers are not mentioned,
While there is q long list of captains,
lieutenants, majors and other army
officers.
The beginning of the camp is also
pictured out by the record of claims.
II is rather odd to note that the first
claim recorded is a placer claim, To-
Gated at the southwest corner of the
district, and discovered by Lewis
Greeley, the first recorder. Bill Hick-
man seems to have been one of the
king pins Of the district, for the minutes
OF the meeting at which the district
was first organized, held on the 10Th of
April, 1870, show he was one of
a committee to draft bylaws
His name frequently appears as
locating claims. Walker Bros. also
appear among the early locators, and
they were the owners of the Mormon
Chief extension No. 2.
The names given to many of the
claims sound strange now in the great
gold camp. The Silver Cloud, Silver
Circle, Silver Cross, etc, have long ago
been forgotten, and the Gold Eagle,
Golden Seals, Gold Cup, Gold Slipper
ana golden names generally nave taken
the place of the silVery titles Past
records tell us that in those days.
Lewiston produced $4,000 ounces of sill
yer and no gold: today on the same
ground, thousands OF dollars worth OF
gold is being produced daily, and if
there is occasionally a trace of silver,
it is so small that it passes unnoticed,
and the assayer is under the necessity
Of putting in a little silver to catch the
gold in the ores.
The only traces left of the old camp
and its promised prosperity are a few
holes in the silver ledge, and a couple
of houses. The old mill, and the old
mine owners are unknown in the camp,
and but few can tell which of the old
workings belonged to the Mormon
Chief, and other claims are entirely
forgotten. So many changes come in a
quarter of a century in the wild and
wcolly west.

Romance of the Indian Reservation
Up to Date and Beyond

IsoIna1ce OF tne indian Reservation
Up to Date and Beyond.
'Merciful heavens. Major Skadgers,
your daughter has just been carried off
by al Indianr'
Thus spoke Frederick DressuD. a
young lieutenant in Major Skadger's
division of United States cavalry sta
toned at Fort Pill l. T., says the De-
troit Free Press.
Not Birdie?" exclaimed Major Skad-
gers, spring1ng TO his feet.
Yes
Who was the indiana"
''Speckled Lightning, chief of the Kio-
w2S''
Heaven help us. fear there is no
hope. Speckled lightning. Of all the
chefs. lie was the most peaceful and
friendly Indian on the reserve"
We may be able to verta1e them in
time said Lieutenant Dressup
We must" said the major IF we do
not it means a long and bloody war
with the Hiowas. Call Pigeon Toed
Pete, the scout, and have so men ready
to start on the trail in half an hour"
Thirty minutes later the hand of de-
terTnined cavalrymen, with Major
Skadgers and Pigeon Toed Pete at their
head, set out for the fort. Pigeon Toed
Pete went afoot with the rapidity and
certainty Of sleuth hound closely
scanning the trail of the Indian.
At shutdown they came in sight of a
White tepee, from which rose a thin
column o. smoke"
They are there said Pigeon Toed
Pete, my work is DONE
Pray heaven we are in time"
hoarsely muttered Lieutenant Dressup;
but. see, some one raises the tent
fap.''
Suddenly Major Skadgers cried: We
are too late" and fell senseless from
his horse.
Pigeon iced Pete looked and saw
Birdie Skadgers, a beautiful woman, 81
years OF age, emerge from The Indian
tepee.
TOO Later said Pigeon Toed Pete. Il
knew we would be. Nothing could
have saved kim
In her hand Birdie Skadgers held the
scalp of SpeckIed Lightning. chief of
the KioYas.
