Boone Was u Spanish Subject.

About the year 1897 the old pioneer,
Daniel Boone, went over into Missouri and
settled in what was known as the Femme
Usage Dosage Woman) settlement This
was on the Missouri river in the district
of st. Charles about 40 miles west of st.
Louis and about % miles above the town
of st. Charles. This portion of Missouri
was then wild and picturesque-just such
"a country as he loved.
Soon after his arrival i'm Missouri Daniel
Boone renowned his allegiance to the gov
eminent of the United States and became
Spanish subject On June IL, 1900,
Delassus appointed him commandant, or
syndic, of the Femme Usage district a
position which he accepted. The office
was both civil and military. In time of
peace he acted as an adjudicator, or judge,
over the people in his district, and I'm time
of war he was their commander.
The matters ON which he had to pass
Judgment were such as required honesty
and practical common sense rather than
a knowledge of law. He was fearless and
upright in his decisions. On one occasion
a desperate who had been terrorizing the
people of the FenSne Usage district was
publicly reprimanded by Boone. The man,
who pridcd himself on his power to over
awe the people, cried out:
"If you were not an old man, should
not take that from you.
"You great coward responded Boone,
shaking his clinchcd fist close to the man $
face 'if you want to get revenge on me
for what 1 have said, don't let my gray
hairs stand in the way. Old as / am,
am yoang enough to whip you" Quite
cresftalen, the fellow skunk away and was
mover again heard to say anything against
the old pioneer. Louis Republic.

DEATH OF C. W. HEmENWAY.

poperiuan who sprang into notoricty

son yesterday from an attack Of
quick consumption. He leaves a wife
and one child. the former In California
and the latter at Payson with her
grand parents.
The deceased was n man of extern
sive travel and chequered experience.
He was born in Iowa on the 22nd Of
March, 1860. Early In youth he mani
Tested desire for newspaper work
ind was given to writing poetry at
odd times. Then he began q pilgrim
age that took him over n large portion
Of the earth. From here he went to
South America but made hasty re-
turn via Jamaica and Havana. Then
he visited Mexico where he was
stricken down with yellow fever, carted
OH to pest house where he was found
apparently more dead than alive by
couple of Sisters of Charity who
nursed him back to health again. From
Mexico he made his way back to San
Francisco and from there set sail for
Australia where he remained about
year, after which he returned to
san Francisco from which place he
soon after went to the Sandwich ISL
ands as secret service agent. Dur
ing all of these p6ricrinatlons he did
more or less newspaper work and
thereby earned some money when IL
was very much needed. In the latter
part of 1888 he returned TO the Pacific
coast and a year later became editor
ln-chlef OF the Salem, Oregon, Daily
Talk. Later he was employed on the
Boise Statesman and from that berth
came to Utah. For n time he lived at
Fayson and there he met and married
Miss lreta Dixon. About this time he
worked on the Provo Enquirer and
then went to ogden where he edited
the Herald of that city and became
involved in series OF libel suits, one
of which cost him fine OF $500 and
another which resulted In his impris-
onment in the penitentiary for one
year, although he served less than one
third Of that time. 1t was while serv-
ing sentence in this institution that
he wrote Memoirs Of Ny Day in and
out of Mormondom. a little work that
received quite local circulation.

SAGASTA IS DISAPPOINTED.


New York. Oct. 5.-A dispatch TO the
World from Madrid says:
Premier sagasta has been dlsap-
pointed in his efforts to induce all the
prominent statesmen of the liberal
party to Join his cabinet in the pres
ent critical circumstances. Therefore,
he has had to content himself with a
ministry composed of respectable, but
less influential personal friends.
An old f2ud between the right wing
and the democrats in the liberal party
prevented Senior GamaZO from accept
ing prOilered scat and his brother
in-law, Senior Mnura, the author Of
the first Cuban home rule bill, also Is
excluded, chiefly through the influence
OF the union constitutional senators
and deputies from Cuba, who belong
to the liberal party in Spain. The
only strong men in the cabinet are
Senior Puigoerver. the minister of
finance, Senior Gapdebon, the minis
ter OF the interior, and Senior Moret,
the minister for the colonies. The
last named accepted the colonial Of
flee with view to playing the chief
part In reversing the policy Of the late
government In regard TO Cuba and the
Philippine islands. With his knowl-
edge OF English, Senior Moret natur-
ally will be in position to assist the
minister Of foreign affairs, Senior Gull
lon, who is not so well acquainted
with Spains foreign relations as is
Senior Moret.
on the whole, the composition of
the new cabinet has caused surprise
and disappointment both TO the gem
eral public and to the liberal patty.
