Tho Ameer Of Afshanistan.

The ameer of Afghanistan is one
of the most autooratic monarchs in
the world. Not the car Of Russia
or the sultan of Turkey is more alb
solute in authority. Yet he is, OF
makes himself, curiously subject to
the will Of the people in some re.
spects. A few years ago he greatly
desired to visit England and other
European countries, and the British
government was anxious that he
should do 30. But he did not ven
ture to do 80 without the consent of
his people. So he took plebiscitum
on the subject. He sent proolama-
ton to every village in his empire,
telling what he wanted to do, and
explaining the advantages that
would accrue to him and to the EN-.
pire from such tour, and asking
the people to take a vote on the sub
ject and let him know the result.
So the question was submitted to
universal suffrage. After a few
weeks the returns were all in and
were counted, and it was found that
a considerable majority of the peo-
pie were opposed to his leaving the
country. He was disappointed, but
acquiesced in the will of the people
and staid at home, sending his SEQ
ond son to England in his place

Uncle Mark Heath is dead. For
some weeks he had net been in his
usual health, but it was only about
Two weeks ago that he was attacked
by the last sickness which resulted in
lis demise. For many years he has
resided on his fine farm, just in the
outskirts of Oakfield, and no man,
woman or child could be found in a
wide scope of country but loved
and respected him and sincerely
mourn with the relatives. He died
as the shades of night were gathering,
last Monday, November 8, 1897. The
funeral was held on Wednesday morn
ing and was conducted by Rev. Harry
Ferguson, of Atlantic, and the body
was laid to rest beside his daughter,
who had preceded him to the spirit
world, in that silent city of the dead,
just over there on the hillside near the
home where he had lived SO long,
followed there by a long line of sor.
rowing relatives and friends. The
whole community joins in extending
words of sympathy and hope to the
bereaved ones, but words are weak

Ordinance should Work Both Ways.

man to have a bell attached to his ma
chine.

Burton seemed to think that the ordi
nance would mean hardship to majority
of the population of Chicago. Jones ia
vored the ordinance He said he had been
run into three or four times and had es-
capped death narrowly ut least a dozen
times.
"No, Burton" said he, "the ordinance
is all right. When mans walking on n
street in Chicago, he wants to know if
there is II bicycle coming"
That's very true said Burton, "and
it is also true that every man riding a
wheel wants TO know if there are any Pc
destrians near mt hand. Now, propose
that if every bicyclist be compelled to have
II bell, il is equally fair that every pcdes-
TRAN be compelled to carry horn, which
he shall toot at intervals whenever he is
near u crossing or on any thoroughfare
where there are whcclmen.
Jones laughed at the suggestion. what
grc you tal'-ing about?" he demanded.
"WLy should all pedestrians be compelled
to CRY Lorns merely for the accommodate
tion of II few whCclneny"
"a few wheclmen!' exclaimed Burton.
"Why, l estimate that 80 per cent of the
population rode wheels last year, and this
year at least rs per cent will be on bikes.
The whcelIhen have more rights than the
people on foot, because they are in ma
jority. You mark my word, If the coun
Gil passes an ordinance requiring n bell on
every bicycle we will rise up in our might
and demand that every pedestrian carry q

HE is DYING.
George Woods, the Base Ball Pitcher,
Cannot Live Long.

George Woods is dying at the home
of his brother, Levi Woods. in Eva.
He may not live Il week and he may
live six, months, this is the doctor'c
conclusion on his case. Woods has
been a consumDtive for some years
and has been suffering intensely of
late. He was confined in the Queens
hospital. and when the Trustees of
that institution decided that incur
ables could not be provided for any
longer it was necessary for the UNI
fortunate mans relatives to carry him
away.
Rev. Alex Macintosh has taken
considerable interest in Woods and
had communication before the
Board of Health at its regular meet
ing yesterday afternoon. His mother
being Hawaiian it was the opinion
of the Board that arrangements could
be effected for him to enter Lunalilo
Home. President Smith promised TO
give the matter his immediate atten-
ton.
Woods has many friends about the
city, especially among the base ball
players. 1t is the intention of the
bows to raise fund for Woods. 1t
was suggested that if he could be sent
to higher altitude that the dry air
might have good effect on his lungs.
The physicians say not and insist that
the best thing ti.at can be done for
him is to make his last days as COM
Portable as possible.
The father Of the dying man passed
away suddenly month or so ago.
Mrs. A. Tween, residing at 720 Henry
Street, Alton, Ill.,, suffered with sci

Bishop Joseph B. Keller,

II anyone should inquire in Provo
for a man, not in the ranks of the
brillant-whose orbits are too often
cometary or meteoric-but a man
noted Tor levcl-hgadedness and prac-
teal judgment; man ever in the
front in useful enterprises, but one
who insists on clearing OFF debts as
fast as they accumulate; a man who
for these and other qualifications
make a model father of a ward
most of the citizens would reply:
"You are looking for Bishop
Keller"
Joseph B. Keller born in Salt Lake
City, September s, 1855, came to
Provo a baby Pioneer Just forty
years ago, and so his lite is inter
woven with the growth of the city.
When discussing his career he does
not fail to say that he knows how to
farm, and has also mastered the
trade Of bricklaying,
But being man Of strong mental
temperament, he soon passed into
other fields of activity. For twelve
years he has been a teacher in the
Brigham Young Academy, and to-
day occupies the position Of principal
Of the b. Y. Commercial College.
During these years he has contrib
uted to the current literature of the
OF the State, and has written a text
book on book keeping which was
recently adopted for the schools Of
Utah.
As principal Of the Commercial
College, he has introduced the
methods of the famous Eastman
Business College at Poughkeepsie,
n. y, where he himself graduated.
The advantage OF n business training
in the academy is in the fact that the
training is not in business alone, but
in morals and religion.
Bishop Kceler makes a careful
study Of Whatever he undertakes;
and his last undertaking is to pre-
side over the Fourth ecclesiastical
ward of Provo Ci,y. 1t is not too
much to say that the difficulties
peculiar to ward organizations are
fast disappearing under his system

Lars {, EggertseO, Superintendent
Sunday Schools, Utah Stake.

Observing that Superintendent
Eggertsen was unusually busy with
Sunday school matters, debating as
many as a dozen letters in one day
to various ward superintendents, l
asked concerning his methods.
THAT would take too long" he
replied, but to sum up our meth
DDS would be TO say we aim to make
the Stake schools a vast unity with
each school as a harmonious part.
To this end we first OF all keep in
touch with the Presidency of the
Stake and the Bishops. No APP
pointment is made that does not
have their fullest confidence, no
move made which they do not fully
approve. Nor do the Bishops or
ward authorities make any move
without consulting us. This is tine
theory on which we work. The rest
is management.
This management l learned by
further questioning, consisted in
ward and Stake conferences, monthly
superintendent meetings, circular
letters, reports, and other printed
devices, but most OF all in inccss1nt
activity in visiting schools. The
SUPPLEMENTARY aim to be visiting

sometime separately, Just as the re-
