apparent however, until the rider stop

beckoned one of the other boys to get up
behind him. For a while even then he
seemed to have regained his, lost energy,
for again he bucked and jumped and
franticaly endeavored to throw his double
burden, but without avail and when, af-
ter a struggle royal of nearly two hours,
he was refined up in front of the grand
stand, he was a vanquished horse and he
knew it. The enthusiasm of the audience
was immense. and every one Joined in
cheer for the fearless rider, who, pale and
bleeding from his nostrils from the terri

true cowboy fashion by a simple wave of
the hand.
The VICTORY was a complete one. and no
one grumbled at paying his wagers, feel

CONVERSATIONS OF sAvAGERY.
What Has Civilization to Offset
Against Health, Strength, and
JOY of Life
From the Pail Mall Gazette.

In the pre-scientifc era saVages were re-
garded as the happest of mortals. The
Spanish conquerors admitted the fact, but
they assigned 1t to the visible protection
Of devils. Cartier and Drake and Raleigh
agreed that men lived in America as in the
golden age. Cook was perplexed by the
felicity of those very sinful islanders Of
the South Seas Rousseau built his theory
of human rights upon the innocent happi-
ness of primeval man, and Voltaire wrote
a tale, famous in it's day, with this motif.
Our Johnson would have none Of 1t, of
course, and presently the reaction set I'm.
1t was proved by deductive argument that
the savage is a miserable creature-sad
weakly a prey to disease in all respects
in ferior to the civilized man. There are
plenty of people who hold this view still
though the wise have ceased to rely on de-
ductive argument In matters of the sort
il is comforting for humdrum townsfolk
10 believe that those who dwell seeming
" with out care, amid the gIorles of the
tropics are really far worse off than them
selves To envy-though unconscious-I
attribute the. ready acceptance and the OBJ
stinate survival of statements which are
only true, In fact, of a tiny percentage
among the savage peoples, If at all.
1t is allowed even 10 a proYerb that the
supreme compensation for misery IS health
and so this is denied in the first place. But
it may be asserted roundly that every dis
ease OF an epidemic character by which
savages are afflicted has been introduced
by white men. The Hottentots were all
most the lowest; very few of them remain
now In 1874, when they abounded,. ter

We have depopulated whole countries with
smallpox, measles, scarlet fever, consump-

THE DESERT GOLD MONEY.
Story of the Ancient and Forgotten
Coinage in Utah.

From the Salt Lake Tribune.
The ancient coinage of Utah, the period
when the glittering particles of yellow
little abode building in Salt Lake, has
been half forgotten. The written and
printed records Of that time by a strange
oversight. throw no light on the subject.
Those Utahans whose memory dates
back to 1849 remember the establishment
of the mint, but the exact dates are con-
fused. 1t was some time toward the close
of 1S49 that the mint was inaugurated as
a measure of public convenience. Brig
ham Young was the instigator Of the coin
age system, and exercised a personal su-
pervision over the work.
Prior to the establishment of the mint
all gold dust had TO be weighed when
payments for merchandise or other ar
ticles were made. In many cases the
merchant with whom the purchaser was
dealing had no gold scales, and much
trouble resulted. The metal was too pre-
cious to admit of guesswork in ascertain
ing the weight required 20 cover given
sum, and the customer would be put to
the trouble of looking up scales to aid him
in his payment
Old-timers disagree as to who made the
dies with which the gold was stamped
into $3.50, s., $40 and $40 coins. The honor
lies between John Kay and James M
Barlow. Kay was mechanic aud Barlow
a jeweler and dentist Judge Hammond
of San Juan, who came to Utah in 1915
says that dies were made by both men.
He thinks Kay made the first, which
were unsatisfactory and imperfect, and
that Barlow made the later ones.
Thomas Bullock was chief clerk and ac-
tive director of the mint curing it's entire
operation. The gold which was used came
chiefly from California, much of it being
brought here by members Of the Mormon
The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1898-09-06

Young said the other day that as a boy
he had frequently seen men pitching
quoits with California slugs.
The old mint building has also had its
day. Now it is falling into dilapidation,
and like the ancient dies and presses must
soon give way to newer things. 1t stands
on South Temple street, just behind the
front entrance in the wall east of The

PRINCE MoNACo,s DISCOVERY.

y submerged island has been found
1000 miles due west from Gibraltar
which offers "A curious problem for ge-
ographers. 1t was discovered by the
Prince of Monaco, and will soon be
placed on the charts issued by the Hy-
geographic Office at Washington.
The sunLen island was discovered
quite by accident by the Prince while
making soundings for his yacht, the
Princess Alice, and the formation was
accordingly named after the yacht.
The island is supposed to have been
at one time huge volcano. Its shape
which has beer determined by care
full surroundings is much the same as
that of huge cooked hat. The island
is in no danger of interfering in the
least with navigation, since its highest
point is some forty-one fathoms below
the surface of the sea.
