CHAPTER III.


IL was O. faYorite theme OF Mr.. Christie
TO descant on the way in which he saved
the money of the taxpayers of Garden
stone. He was a little why man, with
sharp features and GOODNESS OF manner,
which, 1t was said, froze the marrow re-
naming in the bones OF the old folk who
were "on the board as he handed TO
them their weekly pittance. He was
staunch teetotaller and an elder of the
kirk; yet It was reported that he used 20
treat the village policeman, Tom Clark
to a gill of whiskey for every beggar that
functionary conveyed across the brig into
the adjoining parish, so that If anything
happened TO the thinkers the district, or
whose charity funds he was the dispenser
would not be responsible.
Long ago he had predicted the ultimate
destination of Rob Jack as either the
penitentiary or the poorhouse. as time
after time the ne'er-do-weel fell into the
clutches Of the law. His prediction never
came nearer naturalization than when
Rob was arrested for being the lnsti-
gator Of what was considered the dark
est blot in the history of Gardenstone-
the burning of the effigy of Babbler VIII
lie. who kept the Boar Inn, for causing the
IMPRISONMENT OF the Aud Kirk precentor,
whom the tnnkeeper accused OF stealing
gill-stoup. and would not be convinced
of the precentors innocence. although
Baker Brown assured him that ne put
the gill-stoup in the precentors pocket
II was said that Rob Jack planned the
effigy racket in the Berean smiddy, where
a fac smile OF Babbler Willie. In rags
and tarred shavings, was brought INTO
being: also that when the throng that
gathered around the Boar Inn on mat
memorable evening were bowling them
selves hoarse at the sight OF the hame5'

windows OF the inn by throwing the hrst

but the sympathies of the villagers were
with the offenders, and their fines were
paid.

President Mckinley has issued a call
for 5000 more volunteers, which num-
Der will make the total strength of
the army 100000, including regulars
and volunteers. Utahs quota of the
new call win be 900 The war depart
ment will designate the branches of
the service for which enllstments will
be taken, and until this is done it Will
not be known what openings will be
presented to Utah men.
There were many patriotic men in
this State who could not enlist because
there was not room for all Of them;
but now another opportunity will be
given to at least some of the disap-
pointed ones. Particulars as to re-
cruitiug have not yet been made
known but doubtless will be immedl-
ately; and as soon MS this is done there
is no question about the speedy fur
nishing of her share by the Forty-fifth
State.

platform; and neither selfishness nor
diplomacy have anything to do in form
ing American sentiment In the prem
ises.
The fact seems to be that great and
strong forces, some of which are OBJ
vlous while others are more or less
occult, are operating to bring together
in close alliance the two great Anglo
Saxon nations. A treaty between Amer
lea and Great Britain. for offensive and
defensive purposes, would bring into
existence naval and military power
that the rest of the world could not
cope with. and undenfably the present
tendency Is strongly in the direction of
the formation of such power The
Anglo-Saxon race has always led the
van of human liberty and its prospec-
tive consolidation by alliance portends
a wider spread Of freedom than the
world has ever known. But 1T is only
too apparent that the progress of liber-
ty Will be accompanied by appalling
wars and tremendous upheavais among
the nations.
Never in Its history did the world
stand on the verge of an Immediate flu
ture more intensely interesting in the
forecast than are the closing years of
the nineteenth century and the open
ing ones of the twentieth

Railroad men who have had the
privilege of examining the four new
trains which the Burlington Route on
the LIST of May placed In service between
Denver and Chicago, say they are as
magnificently equipped as any In the
country-that even the famous limited
expresses between Chicago and New
York are not handsomer or more lux
urious: Every car Is wide vestibuled,
and was built especially for the Bur-
lington Route.
The four trains are Identical in APP
pearance and arrangement. Each Is
composed of a buffet smoking library
car. palace slecping-car, dining
car, and two reclining chair cars. The
Duffet-smoklng-l library car Is something
new for Denver Chicago line. 1t is n
veritable clubhouse on wheels where
one may read, write, smoke. talk, or
play cards while travelling at the rate
of fifty miles an hour. 1t is handsomely
carpeted and furnished with settees,
desk, compartment for card-players,
and well-stocked buffet. The current
periodicals and newspapers are on file,
ana a carefully selected library is pro-
vided for the use of passengers. The
sleeping car is n gem, and the chair and
dining cars are in every way worthy of
the train of which they form an i'm
portant part.
The Burlington Route takes these pa
latiai trains through to Omaha and
Chicago in marvelously quick time.
Leaving Denver at $3.50 am. today on
one of them you are landed in Chicago
at 2:15 tomorrow afternoon, there maxi
Ing close connections with trains for all
points East. The running time from
Denver to Chicago Is only twenty seven
and three-uuarter hours. Just how fast
that is win be best understood when 1t
Is stated that 1t is almost five hours
faster than the fastest schedule in eff
feet prior to February 9Th, 1898

ENGLISH FRIENDSHIP FOR AMERICA

It is related in the dispatches. ms an
actual occurrence, that thirty prom
inent citizens of Birmingham, Eng
land, who had organized themselves
into a Paris exposition club with
view to visiting Paris in body dur
ing the coming exposition there, and
had contributed large sum of money
to pay the expenses of the trip. have
abandoned the project, dsbanded and
returned to the members the money
paid in by them, all because of un-
friendly feeling displayed by France
towards America. There is no APP
parent reason to doubt the truthful
rather striking proof of English friend
ship for America.
The British empire today stands
alone. 1t has vital interests that are
threatened, and great crises throw
dark shadows over its immediate flu
ture; yet it has no friend, no ally.
Every European nation whose friend
ship would be of value to 1t, seems
to be either downright hostile or in
sympathy with those who are. The
coalition between France. Germany
and Russia to dismember and divide
among themselves the empire of China.
excluding England from all participa-
ton In the process and its benefits,
has brought to the court of st. James
keen sense of its isolation and lone
illness, and no doubt has been the in
SEPARATION of those recent utterances on
the part of British statesmen which
show so marked desire to cultivate
close relations with America.
1t is both useless and unnecessary to
deny that the efforts of British diplom-
aey in the direction indicated are
prompted by sellishness. Her states
men would not show such friendliness
for the Giant Republic of the new
world were any of the giants of the
old world In close alliance with her.
But diplomacy rarely acts from any
other motive than selflshness; de-
sire to strengthen itself or weaken an
enemy. This explanation may, there
fore, il the reader SO wills, be accepted
as a sufficient accounting for the mo-
tives and methods of Victoria's cabinet
ministers, and subordinate lights OF
British statecraft But what of the
common people? In matters of senti-
ment they are nearly always independ-
ent alike of national diplomacy and of
ficials charged with the moldlng OF it.
Their likes. dislikes, ailinities and
prejudices, in matters of race, are usu-

Some idea of what naval battle IL
when two well equipped squadrons
meet, may be formed when the ca
pacity of modern guns is considered.
The largest guns, twelve and thirteen
inch caliber, can be loaded and fred
almost once every three minutes. At
little less than two miles distance
the five and six-inch rapid fire guns
will begin to pour in their projectiles,
and these weapons can be loaded and
fired at the rate of from seven to If
teen aimed shots per minute. Then
come the six-pounder guns. delivering
forty shots per minute, the one-pound-
ers, throwing a shot per second, the
machine one-pounders maxim Nor
denfeldt). two hundred shots per
minute, and so on up to the Gatlings.
fed automatically by electric motors
and projecting bullets at the rate of
5000 per minute. A man might brave
storm of grape and bullets with a
chance of escape; but the battle of the
Yalu River showed that under the
quick fire hail of the Japanese ships
the slaughter on the Chinese ships
was so frightful that the Chinese with
all their stolid contempt for death
could hardly be kept at their posts.

Elders Jones and Hyde OF the
Church of Jesus Christ Of Latter-day
Saints, lectured to few of the best of
us at the court house last night. They
put up a strong talk from q Christian
standpoint, and also to prove that their
Church is the only true Church Of God.
A number of more or less convincing
quotations from Scripture and other
condolences We're cited as proof OF
their claims. The peculiar feature
about these gentlemen Is that they pat
tern after Jesus in travelling without
n purse, taking no thought of the NOR
row, what they shall eat, or what they
shall drink, or wherewithal they shall
be clothed. 1t is refreshing to see any
one following Christ to this extent
whatever their faith may be.-Gunnl-

Justice is something very difficult to
measure or describe. A snob once
asked Carlyle to define 1t. Justice is.
whether i define 1t or not replied the
great Scottish philosopher. Undoubt-
edly there is an extremely wide lati-
tude for varying Ideas of what justice
Is; but 1t is a question whether G. f.
Putnam ESQ.,, assistant county attor-
ney of Salt Lake county, has not gone
Tar beyond the widest permissible
bounds in calculating his notion of the
divine attribute.
In the criminal branch of the Third
district court yesterday n young man
was placed on trial on a charge of
committing fornication. Mr.. Putnam,
who had charge of the prosecution.
arose and stated to the court that the
young man was willing to make
reparation by marrying the young
woman with whom he had committed
the offense, but that she had refused to
become his wife. on these grounds
The prosecuting officer moved that the
case be dismissed, and the order was
made. The young man. whose guilt of
the crime with which ne was charged
wus freely admitted. went scot free.
Precisely what took place between
the young man and the young woman
IN this case, leading up to and follow
Ing the commission of the offense. is
not publicly known. but probably the
history Of the matter Is substantially
as follows: The young persons met;
ne rendered and she received his atten-
lions; under promise % marriage he
accomplished his purpose and then
,corned her cntrcaties and laughed at
her distress. Under a burning sense
Of wrong, she invoked the law. and in
stituted prosecution against her be-
:rayer.
He then. In order to escape the pen
nty OF the law, expresses his Wiling
ness TO marry the girl, but she. having

THE UTAH VOLUNTEERS,

Californians pay much attention to
the Utah boys about to embark for the
Philippine Islands. They find that the
representatives of this state are fine
looking young men, and, according to
the San Francisco Chronicle, visitors
to the camp stand about wondering
and admiring. This is hut another IL
lustratlon Of fact which so often has
been observed, that wherever the sons
and daughters of these valleys of the
mountains mingle with the rest of the
world, they attract attention. 1t is so
whether they are engaged in intellec-
tual or material pursuits.
1t is but natural that 1t should be So
They are the descendants of parents
by circumstances carefully selected
from among the most advanced people
of the earth, and furthermore, purified
in trials and adversities, as precious
metals in fire. They have been taught
self-rellance and to lead pure lives
and have consequently attained a high
degree of physical and moral perfec-
ton. The Utah boys are in many re-
spects as David among his brothers.
and their sterling qualities are sure to
appear whenever the challenge from a
Goliath is heard by the army of Israel
We are glad that the Utah Volun-
teers attract attention in their camps.
We believe that if sent to meet the enc
my in sanguinary combat they will be
heard from again. Among them is the
right material for heroes and this will
assert itself whenever the opportunity
Is presented.
