OBSERVATIONS ON LIFE.

1t Is spirit" with us and "tem'
per- with our ueighbor.
Experience is what a mau gets
after making a fool of himself.
There are some women that
worry themselves gray trying to
look young.
Society is what people are when
they know they are watched.
Money saved is money earned -
for the benefit of some one with a
scheme.
Most any friend will stand by
you to the last cent, but it must be
your cent.
Faith without words is about as
useless as a watch without wheels.
Hard work is cure for almost
any evil except the evil of having to
work hard.
There's nothing some people love
better to answer than an unanswer-
able argument.
Friends and umbrellas are seldom
at hand when needed.
A man uses his best standard to
measure his neighbor and his worst
to measure himself
Some people are too small to
come out of the big end of the
horn-they might get lost in it.

A Future Admiral.

In the recent naval appointments and
promotions is noted the promotion of
Ensign A L. Norton to that of lieutenant.
Lieutenant Norton. who is a son of Con-
gresham J. A. Norton. of the Titin
(Ohio) district, is on the United states
monitor Miantonomah.
There is a story connected with the ap-
pointment of Lieutenant Norton to the
naval academy which has probably never

to pass the preliminary examination came

He returned home and took all kinds of

to report he took two of his trusted
friends with him. telling them that he
needed their assistance. On the morning
of the day for the final examination Bert

his chums. presented one with a. piece of
pasteboard and the other with a good

his head, he commanded one TO mold MIN

A FUGITIVE DISCOVERED.
An Alleged Rapist Found In the
Hills Near Vernal.

vernal. July 2o.-SeveraI days ago
the local officers received descriptions
of man named A. w. Bethers, who
escaped from the authorities of
Wasatch county, where he was held
on the charge of rape. A description
of the horse which he was said to have
appropriated to get out of the country
was also given.
This afternoon a man was located
up in Mill ward at the residence of
Will Oaks, by brother of Oaks and
another young man whose name was
not learned. They Immediately rode
into town and in the absence of Sheriff
Preece. who is out in the hills, they
notified Town Marshal Pope. who tod
them to bring him in. which was ac-
cordingly done. He is now locked up
awaiting the return of the sheriff 4
reward of $25 was offered for his
capture.
There seems to be no doubt concern
ing the identity of the man, as he
answers the description in every par
ticular. as does the horse he was rid
ing. which is said to have been stolen
from his uncle.
