B. Hull, left for Ogden. His companion
was sick at the Hammer House, and
that evening he became worse and was
removed to another place. A bottle of
whisky that was found in the wagon
was given to him and that night he
died Constable Fowler and County
Attorney King took the case in hand
and an inquest was held before Justice
Guildchrist. From his papers it was
discovered that the dead mans name
was Dan Wickizey, but his residence is
not known. Among his effects was a
letter from a woman who signed her
self Clara" and who urged him to
quit drinking. It is learned that Hull,
his companion, has two brothers liv-
ing at Hooper. The dead man, it was
also learned. had a brother at Los An
geles. DR.. Noyes, of American Fork,
examined the body and expressed the
opinion that the man died from the
effects of a protracted spree, and ex-
posture. The body is awaiting instruc
tons from his friends. Hull is ex
pected down this evening and will no
doubt clean up the matter.

President Andrews Has Resigned.

DR.. f. Benjamin Andrews has resigned
the presidency of Brown university and
also his professorship therein. The con-
troversy which led up to the resignation
was precipitated by Congressman Walker
of Massachusetts at the last meeting of the
Brown corporation. The congressman at
the time deplored the action of President
Andrews in promulgating his views on the
silver question. Mr.. Walkers stand was
approved by all the members of the cor

to confer with DR., Andrews and endeavor
to induce him to refrain from pursuing the
policy he had adopted in relation to finan-
cial teachings.

Recent finds in Egypt include dozen
papyr written in uncial Greek characters
purporting to contain the sayings of Christ,
and dating about 90 years after the cruel
fxion. They will be translated and pub

Prof. Petrie has been so fortunate as to
discover some 1000 documents, "the clear
ing out of library" These papyri were
mixed with the soil of an old Roman city,
100 miles south of Cairo. 1t will take
from 10 to 20 years to decipher them; in
date they range from the first to the sixth
century. He has also come across a col

these is in Greek, the second is a

Tho Feasts OF Rome.

When at its zenith, the Roman EN-.

Asia and Africa poured in the rich
spices and fruits of the tropics Ger

raised the grains and wild berries;
Italy and tho fertile land OF the
Franks cultivated the vineyards to
make or express the wines; every
strip of seacoast from the Mediter.

But, excepting Nero's dish OF pea

Read Making in England.

The average width of country roadS
in England is fifteen to thirty feet, ir-
respective Of foot walk. MacAdam.
tho great pioneer in road.msking,
who lived in Scotland and England in
the early part of the century, said:
"Roads near great towns ought not to
be less than thirty to forty feet wide
but at Il distance from such towns il
would be waste of land to make. them
so wide. A road should be as fiat as
possible, with regard to allowing the
water to run of at all, because a car
riage ought to stand upright in travel
ing. as much as possible. I have gen.
orally made roads three inches higher
in the centre than at the sides when
they are eighteen feet wide. If the
road be we'll made, the water will run
off very easily in such a slope"
A report prepared by the chief en-
cheering inspector of the board gov
erning British highways contains the
following: In adjusting the size OF
drains to roads, one important consid..
GRAFTON should always be borne in
mind, and that is, that the velocity of
the water should not be so great as to
wear away the sides and bottom of tho
drain. The drain should be too large
rather than too small, and too wide
and shallow than too deep and nar-l
row. In the use of broken stones for
the formation OF roads, MacAdam at
tached the greatest. Importance to the
size. He said that size of stone used
on road must be in due proportion
to the space occupied by wheel Of
ordinary dimensions on a smooth,
level surface. This point of contact
will be found to be longitudinally
about an inch, and every piece OF
stone put into road which exceeded
an inch in each of its dimensions is
mischievous. SINCE his time there
have been notifications OF this idea,

Advantages OF Electricity.

While electricity is certain to effect
very material saving in manufacture
ing, it has other uses quite as import.
ant. Where there is one factory, there
may be hundreds of dwellings,, and
when the electric current can be intro
duced into these dwellings. its advan.
tages will be manifold. AS to econ.
omy. the Niagara Falls power has pro.
duced the most startling results. IL
costs but $50 year per horse power
for electricity used twenty -four hours
in the day. This is much less than the
cost of steam used ten hours day.
There are hopes that evon these fig
ures will be very materially reduced,
and that new appliances will show new
uses for electricity, and that we will
not only have our houses lighted and
heated by this meAns, but it will DO
able to perform many services auto
matically. One OF the latest adapts-
tions Of electricity is its use in laun-
dries. The irons are heated by cleo
tricity, and by proper regulation, q
current is used which is absolutely
uniform. All OF the heat is utilized,
and every stroke Of the iron tells, as
there is no waiting, or wondering, or
questioning If the iron is hot enough.
Another great advantage is that it does
not heat the room, as the radiation
from the iron is not percoptible. Gas.
heated irons vitiate the atmosphere.
and the operators become weary and
lack vitality. Where natural gas has
heretofore been employed for heating
irons, It is now used to generate cleo
tricity, and the change is Of great ad.
vantage, both financially and in point
of health. York Ledger.

Peoples party was organized. and the
question of new and taking name
was being discussed. ''Why not call

believe would express what you want. !"
The idea struck Populist editor
there, and he wrote on editorial en-.

adopted it. The word Popullst is not

the latest one printed.

A Profitable Dream.

It was profitable dream that Ger.
tie Tressler, of Knoxville, Iowa, had
the other night. She dreamed that a
tin can containing money was buried
under tree in the back yard OF her
home, and SO distinct did the vision
seem that the next day, impressed by
it, she took spade and began to dig.
Only a few inches below the surface
the spade struck something hard, and
. moment later the lucky girl fshed
out tin can IN which was $500 in $50
gold pieces.
The only explanation Of how tho
money came to be there is that "a

A Mixed BrOOd.

A resident Of Friendship, Ga,
owns a turkey hen that not only
keeps his family. we'll supplied with
young turkeys, but sometimes sur
prises the family by the presentation
Of mixed brood. On the last occa-
sion, after setting on twelve eggs for
her usual term Of incubation, she
was found the other morning hover
ing over ten young turkeys and one
young opossum, it having required
two turkey eggs to produce one pos
sum. The young 'possum in question
was about the size of half-grown
rat, and was nesting under the
turkey as contentedly as any one of
the legitimate brood.
