His HHint Book"

Winter Oh the farm is the best time for
gathering up new ideas for the coming
year. says writer in the Agricultural
Epitomist. The evenings are long; there
are plenty of bright papers like the Epit-
omist and good books full of suggestive
ideas. Any man who could spend an
evening with the Epitomist packed. as it
is, from the first page to the last with
the cream of farm literature and not get
many new ideas, must be dull indeed.
There are many days, too, when it is too
cold and stormy to work out of doors,
which may well be spent in stocking up
for the busy season soon to come. Time
thus spent is by no means lost The day
has gone by when any one can afford to
laugh at the farmer who reads.
I find many little jobs which may be
done in the house and barn on wintry
days. l have found it good plan to
keep memorandum book in my vest
pocket all the time. In this, as l am
about my farm or elsewhere, when a
good idea comes to me, or when l wish
to jot down an odd job for the stormy
day, l enter all such items. l will give
you 4 glimpse at one such page. This
is the way it reads: Ellie cross-cut saw, "
mend old Jacks harness" Put new
handle in pickax,' "Read up on horse
colic' This furnishes plenty of work
until the weather will permit my going
out of doors to work again.

Large Sums of Money Bewilder tho
Simple Indians.

Large Sums of Money Bewilder tho
Simple Indians.
1t is not so easy to cheat the Indians in
bargaining as it was in the days when
Mania ttan island was bought from them
for $23. Their long intercourse with the
white men has taught them many things
about the value of their possessions, and
they are pretty sharp in making the or
binary trades which come up in their
daily life. Nevertheless, it is still true
that when it comes to il question of large
sums of mOne!-thOuSands or even hum
dreds of dollarS-the average Indian is
bewildered ut the mere idea of SO much
wealth. An incident which happened
not long ago in New Mexico illustrates
this point.
An Indian, while crossing the tracks
OF one Of the railroads. had been killed
by train. His squaw demanded $4,000
as an indemnity for The loss of her hus-
band, and the company were willing to
settle the matter So they sent to deal
with the squaw man who had had
considerable experience in negotiating
with the Indians. He took with him
several bags Of ''dobe,' or Mexican sill
yer dollars, which pass freely among the
country. Sitting down graveiy with the
assrlcved widow. he began counting out
the big. shining dollars one by one.
When the pile had reached a hundred he
glanced inquiringly at the squaw. But
she shook her head firmly. The agent
went on with his counting. At the end
OF another hundred he looked I'D again.
The squaw repeated the negative shake
of her head, hut her eyes began to
brighten at the heap of silver At 800
the agent paused little longer. His
customer still held out. though with un-
mistakable signs of weakening. The
agent counted more slowly and impress
sively. When he reached $348 the squaw
stopped his hand.
Heap plenty, heap plenty" she said,
with decision, and, gathering up the sill
yer, she accepted in perfect contentment
the settlement of her claim for $4,000.
The Duke of Argyle repeated in his
lecture at lnverary an interview he had
with Darwin, to show that the great nat
| uralist was not as much opposed to the
theological explanation of creation as his
followers. His attention having been d.
rected to some specially remarkable adap-
tation of organs to function, Darwin said,
looking very grave for a moment: Some
times the vision of design in nature comes
upon me with overpower;ng force, but at
other times it seems to vanish"

President William ]. Palmer, Vice Presi-
dent George F. Peabody and General
Manager Dodge. of the Rio Grande West
ern, came in yesterday over their line
and had their private car shunted out TO
the beach at Saltair. where they spent
the night.
These officials are on tour of insoec-
ton over the road and have been taking
their time TO it. They have looked over
almost all the tracks and properties and
are nearly through with the work.
Colonel Dodge merely smiled when asked
concerning the proposed extensions of the
road reported from the Denver Times,
and declared that he did not see how
they could build the lines indicated at this
time although they might be good in
vestments il the money was at hand 10
construct them.
President Palmer said the visit here was
spection of the lines and they We're very
well pleased with the conditions of affairs
and the showing which has been made
by rhe direct management of the line. He
had nothing to say concerning the eN-
tensions of the road into California and
from what he remarked it was gathered
that there is no intention, at the present
time, of projecting any further extern
slonS right away, although the gentle
men of the party are looking over the
conditions surrounding the road and the
possibilities which might arise in the
event anything of the sort IS determined
upon. But right now, when money is
shy, there is no reason for believing any
work will be started which VIII tend to-
ward the extending of the lines of the
Western in any direction.

Governor Wells yesterday appointed
Robert c. Gemmell state engineer to
succeed Colonel Willard Young, who re-
signed TO accept a commission in the
army engineering regiment when the
war commenced. Mr.. GemmeH has been
filing the office since Colonel Young
vacated it, about three months ago.
The news of the appointment came as
a distinct surprise to Mr.. Gemmell,
who, while desiring the position, was
not an applicant for it. Undoubtedly
Colonel Young urged the governor to
appoint Mr.. Gemmell. Politically. Mr..
Gemmell is a Republican, although he
is in no sense a politician. Profession
ally, he has by training and experience
earned the title of civil and mining en-
gineer. He is a graduate of the Uni
versity of Michigan, at which place he
became acquainted with one of Utah's
favorite daughters, Miss Belle A. An
derson, who is now DIR. Belle y. Gem
nell. his estimable wife.
Mr., Gemmell is eminently we'll quail
fed to fill the Office which has been
conferred upon him. Shortly after
completing his college course; MIR. Gem

BODY FOUND.
Tlsught to Be That of Man Who
Disappeared Long Ago.

Crook County Monitor: The discovery
of a human skeleton on the head of Cabin
creek in this county on July Is may tend
TO throw . ray of light on the mystery
enVeloping the sudden disappearance of
Mr. Oliver kilgore in February. 1885.
Readers of the Monitor VIII remember
having seen in this paper brief mention
OF KilSore's mysterious disappearance. He
had come from the west on the b. & NJ
railroad and some time during the month
OF February. 1895, stepped a short time
at the 10l ranch. When he left there he
stated that he was going to the ranch OF
Joe Eagye only a few miles distant TO see
his little boy, who was q Eagyes ranch
with his tthe childS) mother. That was
the last ever seen or heard of Kilgore
Several months later for reasons best
known TO himself. Eagye offered a re-
ward. through publication in the Sundancs
Gazette. for the body of Filgore If found
within the boundaries of a certain terri
tory designated in the reward advertise
ment. Subsequently this section of the
country was carefully and systematically
searched by men on horseback and on
foot, but every effort 10 ind the body
proved futile.
On Wednesday of last week. three years
and five months after Klgore's disappear
ance the bleached bones of human body
were discovered by Mr. T. F.. Antrim
who IS herding sheep for Sam Woodbridge
The scene of the ghastly find is about Is
miles in q northwesterly direction from
the Eagye ranch.

The supreme court yesterday handed
down a modification of the opinion rem
dered couple of weeks ago in the
case of Walker Bros. VS.. Simon BAN
berger and w. S. Fugate, appellants.
involving the ownership of 179,300
shares of the capital Stock of the
Omaha Mining company.
The original opinion gave $4,000
shares to the Walkers, under the
terms of the option they had from Flu
gate, and nothing was therein said
about the $4,000 which Fugate was TO
get as part consideration for the op
ton. Fugate. it appeared, gave a sec
ond option on the same stock TO Bam-
berger, but Walkers option was held
TO be binding against that given TO
Bamberger. and now the court holds
that Bamberger is entitled to the $4,000
shares held by Fugate. The modified
opinion s~ys:
j. j. Walker, jr., shall hold for and
deliver to defendant Simon Bamberger
$4,000 shares of stock decreed to Fu-
gate in the decree appealed from. This
change is made in the decree in view
of the sale by Fugate of one-half of
the stock in dispute to Bamberger be-
fore institution of the suit
The modification was made by Chief
Justice Zane and concurred in by Jus
tees Bartch and Miner and was made
on the petition of Bamberger for a re-
hearing

HK|NG OF DUDES" HERE.
]. WALDERE KIRK A VISITOR TO
SALT LAKE.
Gentleman Who Figured Recently In
the Dispatches Talks About the
Well Dressed Man.

]. Waldere Kirk, styled the king OF
Dudes" arrived in the city yesterday and
added his signature to the Knutsford reg
lister.
So much has been written about Mr..
Kirk during the last few years that he
IS known from one end of the country 10
the other as one if not the leading au-
thority on correct dress for gentlemen. In
fact, Mr.. Kinks ability TO appear prop
erly attired at all times to suit all occa-
sions has spread abroad and his name is
familiar among the chapDies OF London.
which place he recently visited. Every
where the newspapers interview him and
his coming to town always creates some
what of a stir in chaDDiedom.
But Mr.. Kirk is not chappie. Far from
il. He looks the well dressed man and in
this respect is not as easily distinguished
from anyone else to the unframed eye.
1t is easy for Mr.. Kirk, however, to pick
out the defects in a man s dress and there
are. therefore. few who come within his
idea of being properly attired. Some
months ago he attended the races at New
York and saw all the millionaire swells in
their best toys. Mr.. Kirk was disappoint-
ed, for he saw not one man correctly at
tired. There vas the evidence of lavish
expenditure of money. but the harmony
was lacking and most of those who came
under his particular observation were
overdressed.
Seated IN the Knutsford corridor last
evening Mr.. Kirk chatted pleasantly a bout
his commercial trip, for he travels for a

has made correct dress a life study. Here
it IS different. great many newspapers

of a man who incidentally discusses men s
fashions. In my travels during the last

fences ands have compiled them into a
book which will soon be published. 1t will
be worth reading.

but l do not think it would be of any
great interest to the public"
1t is reputed of Mr.. Kirk that his ward
robe contains some 90 suits. TO say
nothing of ties and such other haber-
dashery which goes to make up the we'll
dressed man. 1t is an exaggeration. for
Mr.. Kirk says he carries no such ward
robe and that it is not necessary in order
to make good appearance.

nell was identified with the Santa Fe
railroad system in various branches OF
the engineering and construction work
and later in the large water service
branch of the road between Kansas
City and Fort Madison. Subsequently
Engineer Gemmell engaged in private
practice in Oregon and Washington,
where he built ten waterworks plants,
and supervised the construction of
large irrigation systems. When the
panic of 1898 brought things in the
northwest to a trading basis of wood,
wheat and wool instead of cash, Mr..
Gemmell came to Utah. He was en-
ployed by the city in the office of City
Engineer Willard Young, but resigned
to engage in private practice. which
he has followed with great success. He
is engineer of the De Lamar Mercur
mines, and when the state board of
health was organized last February. he
was appointed a member to represent
the engineering profession, his special
ty being water supply and related top
les. These Mr.. Gemmell will have to
deal with largely as state engineer for
Utah.

WHO GETS THE MONEY!
State and City Both Claim a $50
Fine.

George A. DahlStead was fined a. few
days ago $50 and costs by Judge Nor
rell for selling intoxicating liquor on
Sunday. He paid the fine to the sher-
if, who turned the money over to the
clerk of the district court, and now
the question arises as to whether this
money shall go into the state treasury
or into the city Golfers. The law on
this point is somewhat conflicting. The
code of criminal procedure provides
that all fines imposed by the district
court shall be covered into the state
treasury, while section 209 of the re-
vised statutes of 1888 says that all
fines and forfeitures imposed for VIC
lations of city ordinances shall be
turned into the city treasury. Dahl
stead's offense was a violation of the
city ordinance. He was prosecuted in
the police court and there fined, but
took an appeal to the district court
which tribunal fined him $50 and costs
The city prosecuted the case from start
to finish, and ii would seem just and
reasonable that the fine should go into
the city treasury.
City Attorney Hall has made a de-
mand on the county commissioners
that they order the money to be paid
into the city treasury by County Clerk
Dunbar. 1t is understood. however,
that the county commissioners, before
taking action, viii ask the county at
torney for an opinion on the point.

her little children. and when she rushed
to their protection he struck her over the
head with clothes prop.
Judge I1mmony hallooed a note of

officer Pratt brought seven bows rang
ing in age from to 10 years, into police
court yesterday for bathing in the Salt
Lake &, Jordan canal at the corner of
seventh south ana 1enth East. They
looked as il they had lust been in swim
ming and indeed it was only few hours
previous in the morning when the police
man caught them. Judge Timmony ex-
tended his sympathy to the boys mas
much as they were not permitted to go
in bathing in the day time and the cur
few ordinance compelled them to be at
home at o'clock at night. Still. it was
be stopped and the boys were released
after promising that they would not
again be found at their favorite swim
ming hole.
Three boys were brought to police sta
ton last night with a sack of candy.
which they had dexterously forked out of
the window of McDonald's candy store.
The method employed was to smear tar
on the erd of a pole. which was thrust
through the screen of a back window and
into the candy buckets with very adj
herring effect. The boys were released on
