John Scharbauer, but was only slightly
damaged; fully insured. Had the fire
stanted an hour earlier the loss would
have been heavy, as the building with

A NEW MILL.
Important New Industry Launched
Peery Boys to Erect a Mill.


Work will pegin in day or two on
a flour mill for Ogden. The plans are
drawn and the contract for the ma
chinery let. The structure is to be a
three story brick mill with capacity
of 275 barrels per day. The Peery
boys are prime movers in the enter
prize and Horace Peery is TO be gem
eral manager of the mill. The ma
chinery will be of the most improved
make. the contract having already
been let for furnishing it to the E. p.
Allis company of Minneapolis. The
location of the mill is TO be central
corner of Twenty-fourth and Lincoln
avenue This places it near the rail-
roads so that wheat can be readily re-
ceived and flour readily shipped out.
Possibly a spur may be run UP to it.
Harold Peery, now in Salt Lake but
well known in Ogden as a progressive
young business man who has had much
experience with the Ogden Milling and
Elevator company, is to be general
manager. Electric power will probably
be used.
The structure will be on the north
west corner of Grant avenue and
Twenty-fourth street. Besides the
mill there will be a warehouse. Work
is to begin Monday. morning. c. Inger-
bretsen has the contract. The mill is
to be completed within 80 days and will
cost about $4,000. The machinery has
been ordered from Milwaukee.

Back From the Grave

We cannot come, but we can often
stay our progress thither. Disease,
like everything else. must have be-
ginning All chronic maladies tend to
shorten life, and render it a species of
martyrdom while they last. Malaria,
kidney complaint, chronic Indigestion,
rheulnatisnl-al have small beginnings
and may be stayed at the outset with
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. This ex-
cellent tonic and Alternative is adapted
alike to the prevention of disorders of
the system and TO their removal, and
its early use cannot be too strongly adj
vocated To renew appetite and insure
tranquil rest, there is no surer and
pleasanter means than the Bitters.
The effects of overwork and exhaus-

acted by it, and the busy merchant,
the tired clerk or operative, and the
brain-weary student, author or news

In preparing these phrenographs for
jects in mind. First, to be accurate to
the science in the delineation; second,
to be just and courteous to the one
examined, and, thirdly. to make them
of interest to the general public.
They are written from strictly nom
partisan tandpoint-neither politics
nor creed cutting any figure, and no
questions of anv kind are put to the
one examined beyond merely inquiring
their weight.
Even this one question is not abso-
lutely necessary to one who has had
some practice in this line, except that
il subserves a hidden motive the exam
iner has in view, and which is not less
important than knowing the exact
number of pounds they register on the
scales.
In presenting to The Herald readers
a scientific study of the character and
physical organization of President
Woodruff, the writer approaches his
subject with good degree of rever-
ence.
Even to pass over the favorable i'm
preston entertained by all classes of
people as a result of the consistent
course in life this venerable old gen.
: tleman has taken, if we ignore for
moment the interest that centers
around him in consequence of his high
ecclesiastical position in the commu-
nifty, if we divest him temporarily of
every consideration other than that
which his organization presents in COM
mon with other men, even then his
ripe old age of 80 years gives a charm
that nothing else could impart, and it
at once enlists our admiration and
commands our sincere respect.
We instinctively take off our hat to
a man like this, and whether we ac-
cept those religious views and that
doctrine of which he is the chief liv
ing oracle or not, even if we have no
faith in orthodox religion of any kind,
yet no man can honor President Wood
ruff without honoring himself.
There are many thousands of in
telligent people, however who accept
and regard him as the chief vice re-
gent of God upon the earth. the one
exclusive mediator between heaven and

of the malar bones indicates good

Take again the position and forma-
ton of the ear. If a horizontal line be
drawn Immediately over the ear and

Gated in the brain and the organ OF

hind the mastoid process. Both of
these proofs, however, like the other
signs mentioned, are emphatic and
unmistakable. They give unusual
promise of long life, and as the Lord
is justly credited with always work
ing on natural principles, it is both
consistent and logical to infer that if
he designed to multiply President
Woodruff's days upon the earth, he did
so by bestowing upon him in marked
degree those essential physical endow-
ments, without which, in this sphere
of action at least life is impossible.
The Lord did not cause him to live in

but because of his constitutional
strength.
President Woodruff's head measures
barely % inches in circumference,
nearly Is inches from the opening of
one ear to the other over the head, 10
inches from ear to ear across the per-
ceptive faculties, and 61s diameter or
caliper measurement just above and
between the ears. He stands about
five foot eight inches high and his
weight f1uctuates between 115 and 100
pounds. The bulk of the brain is To-
Gated in the moral and perceptive re-
gions, and this harmonizes admirably
with his real character. He is rela-
lively deficient in the aspiring or sell
fish sentiments, and the reflective
group is but slightly above the aver
age.

The Schools.

On March 9 an election will be held
in Ogden to determine whether the
school board shall borrow $4,000. This
is not a bonding proposition and the
money is absolutely necessary in order
to prevent the closing of the schools.
The recent decision of the supreme
court diverted from the board $4,000
in taxes, which had been counted upon
to run the schools for the year. There
will be no way to keep the schools
open unless authority to borrow the
amount is given. If it is withheld,
$500 pupils will be turned out of the
schools and So teachers and so other
employees discharged. Many of the
teachers would, under the circum-
stances. be forced to seek employment
elsewhere. There is now barely enough
money to run the schools until
March 8.

THE KONOLD CASE.
Proceedings Before Judge Rolapp.

The case of Rudolph Konold VS.. the
Rio Grande Western was on all day
long yesterday. 1t is being stubbornly
contested point for point by each side.
Yesterday was occupied in the eX-
animation and cross examination of
Strothers and of examination of
Coonry, both expert machinists and
boiler men. A long cross-examination
by Mr. Richards and Mcmillan ELECTED
two points favorably to the plaintiffs.
One was that a buckle or bulge in the
side sheet might have occurred if
there had been plenty of water on it.
Another admission was that one of the
boiler inspectors who had previously
tested this boiler for the company
was addicted to drink. 1t is now
thought the case will not get to the
jury before Thursday.

The Telling of 1t.

The other day at social function l
came upon two friends, one of whom
had just returned from luxurious voy-
age round the world in millionaires
steam yacht. Have you found anybody
willing to sit down and hear you tell
about it?" mischievously asked the
other. "No," was the laughing answer,
II have not even ventured to make the
attempt" And / applauded this discre-
tion, for telling about it" is the most
dangerous indulgence possible to one
who would be loved as a companion. It
is the way that bores begin, and first
yielding to the enticement has often led
to one Of those fatal cases Of self con-
sideration which stamp the afflicted
speaker forever with brand.
He may have seen ghost Or muir
der-nay, even may have CHANGED to
meet an emperor in his shirt sleeves.
No matter; let him be silent upon these
subjects in which his own personality
must claim the lions share. The time
will come, perhaps in some autumn
twilight, at the end Of long house
party, when the whole company may
gather about him and clamor eagerly
for his adventures. But until then he
should cling to the first precept Of con-
versation, which commands him to leave
ample room for the display Of wit in
others. -Scribner's

wrenched and Racked

By the pangs of rheumatism, the joints
eventually become previously distorted,
and sometimes assume an almost gro
tesque deformity. To prevent such re-
sults by simple and agreeable means is
certainly the part of wisdom. A tendency
to rheumatic ailments may be successful
ly compatted with Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, medicine with the prestige of a
long and successful career, of unbounded
popularity, and of emphatic professional
endorsements. 1t removes from the blood
those inhammatory impurities which pa
biologists assign as the cause of rheuma-
tism, and not only purifes the life cur
rent, but enriches it, promoting vigor by
fertilizing its source. Digestion, the &C.
ton of the bowels and the secretion of
the bile, are aiIed by it, and it impels the
kidneys and bladder to regular and
active performance of their functions.
1t is besides thoroughly reliable remedy
for, and means of preventing, periodic

THOUGHTS IN SEPARATION.

We never meet, yet we meet day by day
Upon those hills Of life, dim and immense;
The good we love- and sleep-our innocence.
Oh. hills of life, high hillsl And higher than
they
Our guardian spirits meet at prayer and play.
Beyond pain, joy and hope and long sus-
pense,
Above the SUBMITS of our souls, far hence
An angel NETS an angel on the way.
Beyond all good ever believed of thee,
Or thou Of me, these always love and live.
And though fail of thy ideal of me
My angel falls not short. They greet each
other.
Who knows9 They may exchange the kiss we
give,
Thou to thy crucifx, ! to my mother.
