NORWOOD RECAPTURED.

Dave Norwood, the murderer OF Sam
uel Burd, who escaped from the Jail
last April, is again safely behind the
bars in Shoshone, He was captured
in a miners cabin thirty miles from Salt
Lake last Sunday by the sheriff OF that
place and Sheriff White now wears a
satisfied smile. Immediately after Nor
woods escape Sheriff White had couple
of thousand photographs reprinted from
one that he had of Norwood, which, to-
gether with printed description, and
reward of fifty dollars offered. was mail
ed to officers all over the country, with
the above result. Sheriff White has
left no stone unturned to get his man
and in so doing he is over two hundred
dollars out of pocket.
Norwood's crime was particularly cold
blooded and brutal-beat an old man to
death with a pick handle 1t is to be
hoped that he will be condemned to
stand on nothing and look up at rope.

Burke's Study of America.

Burke made a special study of the
American people-of it's original race
traits. of it's acquired characters, and
of all the influences of climate, SOIL
geogra phical position and social ira
dition that might be counted on to
modify those traits and to accentuate
those characters still further. From
this research into local conditions
emerged certain psychological prin-
ciples of genaral application, prominent
among them the law of habit. Habit
is the force, Burke thinks, that has con-
solidated the elements of feeling, in
stinct and reason in the human mind
into smoothly working whole. Habit
gives to human action a strength
surety. and swiftness that seem unat-
taina bic by any other means; and the
longer habit is at work, the greater
will be the effect produced by it. Es-
cape from the influence of habit is diff
cult, if not impossible. Even when a
person or a community voluntarily de-
termines wholly to ignore it, and to
reconstruct in every detail the already
established plan of life, the attempt
Will result either in a Stoppage of ac-
ton, or in a failure to break away
from custom after all. Much less can
habit be uprooted by external agency

Are We a Nation?

In the opening pages of this article
in the July Atlantic" on 1.-The Max
ing of the Nation Woodrow Wilson
asks this significant question: 1--WE
have been told by a certain group Of
our historians that nation was made
when the Federal Constitution was
adopted: that the strong sentences of
the law sufficed to transform US from a
league Of States into a people single
and lnseparable. Some tell us, how
ever, that it was not till the war of
1872 that we grew fully conscious of a
single purpose and destiny, and began
to form policies as if for a nation
Others see the process complete only
when the Civil War struck slavery
away, and gave North and South a
common way of life that should make
common ideals and common endeavors
at last possible. Then, when all have
had their say, there comes a great
movement like the one which we call
Popullsm, to remind us how the coun-
try still lies apart in sections. some at
one stage of development, some at an
other; and we ask ourselves, Is the his
tory OF our making as a nation indeed
over, or do we still wait upon the
forces that shall at last unite us? Are
we even now in fact nation ?''-wood-
row Wilson in the July Atlantic.

Into my lov'd ones ear,
She chips in with an odd remark
Concerning high-grade gear.
And when, with palpitating heart,
To wed her | aspire,
She asks me what l think of her
Brand-new pneumatic tire.
Instead of soulful meanderings
In loves old-fashioned mode,
She takes me on a tandem
Twenty miles of dusty road.
Her talk is all of sprocket wheels
And rims. this maid who cykes.
Her very dreams, methinks. are full
OF different makes of bikes.
And she can mend a punctured tire,
But punctured socks may wait
With holes as big as half crown,
Which she cannot locate.
Nothing she knows of making cakes,
And homemade jam she'd spoil
But she can tell you the best makes
OF lubricating oil
She'll pedal miles on hottest days
Along the Worst-known road,
But she won't do a single turn
Within her own abode
She won't cut wood, nor hoe, nor dig,
Nor tubs on washday fill
That's boys workout she'll ride her blk
Right uD the stiffest hill.

This modern girl of muscle
Is no more use at home than was
She of small waist and hustle.

many of the transparent dresses OF
India muslin, sheer grass linen, organ
die, and similar diphanous textiles by
using contrasting instead of match
ing color for the silk foundation skirt

of lining soft cream-yellow muslin

creamyellow silk, the lining is made
of pale lettuce-green or rose color, pro

In the exhibit OF simple but elegant
French goods of the season, the black
and white silks and satins, sheer wool
fabrics, grenadines, ETC., the striped
silk-andwool materials, which impart
length and slenderness to the figure,
are in great favor, and while they are
plain and quiet in style, they have at
the same time dressy and ladylike ap-
pearance. Models formed of these
materials show narrow front breadth
with gored sides and much fullness
concentrated at the back, in the
smallest possible space. A short, close
fitting jacket bodice opens to show
dainty bit of a net or chiffon vest. An
entire costume of black and white silk,
trimmed merely with rows of black vel
vet, is the most becoming dress wom
an can possess who wishes it to do duty
for various requirements and occa-
SionS. With a black and white trimmed
hat or bonnet, black Suede gloves, and
white ones stitched with black to vary
the gown with, she will find it, as
whole, one of the most compliment

ever invested in A cream serge suit
is equally satisfactory to nine out of
ten women, blonde or brunette, who Sc
lect it for dressy demi-dress uses. The
various silk blouses, vests, or shirt
waists worn en- suite with the jacket
vary its effect wonderfully, and cream
serge can in this day and generatio be
worn at every age, from two years to
three-score and ten.

THEY MUST PAVE
Street superintendent Drain Serves
Notices on Two COMPANIES

LsOtlCeS Oll L wv SOliltdlAc
For several months the street su-
perintendent has had difficulty in in
ducing the street railway companies to
repai' their tracks at points where street
work had been done and also where they
had torn up the street in repairing their
lines. The matter was referred to the
city attorney some time ago, and his
opinion was that the street superin-
tendent could, upon the refusal of the
company have the work done himself.
and that the city attorney woud collect
the bill. After having made number of
requests of the companies, Street Su
perintendent Drain yesterday sent to the
companies the following notice:
You are hereby notified to pave and
macadamize Third street CTraction COM

manner and with the same material with
which the balance of said street is

commence said work on or before Mon
day, the 29th day of November, 1897, said
work will be done by me, as provided in

A SUSPECT ARRESTED
But There Was Not Sufficient Evidence
That He Stole Mrs. Lemon Purse

James Harrison. butcher who has
a shop at the corner of Main and FL
mira streets, was arrested yesterday
morning on a charge of grand larceny.
The complaint was sworn out by Mrs.
Emily Lemon Of 10 North Belmont ave-
nue.. who charged Harrison with steal
ing her purse, containing $50, Thursday
afternoon. Harrison occupied rooms in
house on Seaton street owned by Mrs.
Lemon. He vacated Thursday and the
landlady went to the house to see about
making some needed repairs in the
room. She laid her purse on a box
while she walked into another room.
When she returned her money was gone.
Harrison had been in the room and she
believed that he had stolen it, hence the
arrest. The prisoner was taken before
Justice Morrison but was released as
the evidence was not strong enough to
secure a conviction.
