MAKING A RECORD.
Work On the Columbia Is Yielding
Good Results.
(Mercur Mercury


Work on the Columbia, on Lion hill, is
still yielding good results. A shipment OF
high-grade ore will be made this week,
which yields values of about 40 per cent
lead. seventy ounces silver and s. in gold
per ton. This is taken from the eighteen
inch streak found in the east drift, and
which lies in a large body of milling ore.
A short distance south of the Rosa
shaft prospecting is being done and values
are found at the surface A drift is being
run from the Columbus shaft to tap this
vein in the belief that body of ore
carrying high values will be found.
1t is rumored that Messrs. Blake and
Haight OF Cleveland, o., have bonded the
Reindeer group of three claims, lying
north of the Overland, and joining the
Gold Reserve on the east, and that the
bond will be taken up in q few days. The
intention is to add the Reindeer group to
the Gold Reserve, making a total of
twelve claims held by the company. AS
soon as these arrangements are COM
pleted. machinery will be put on the
ground, and a double compartment shaft
sunk to a depth of 200 feet or until the
vein is reached. The splendid showing in
the Overland has prompted this move,
the gentlemen being convinced that the
same ore bodies exist in the Gold Re
serve and Raven. and as there is plenty
Of money back of the enterprise work will
be expedited as much as possible.
Work has again been commenced on
the Wachusett. A drift is being run from
the Wine in the cave and is passing
through a body of low grade ore. The
work is in charge of William Kelly.

DAVIS COUNTY TEACHERS
Meet semi-monthly In Lieu of An
nual Institute.
Especial Correspondence.)

Pennington, Nov. 26-The Davis County
Teachers institute was in session in the
Academy building today, a morning and
an afternoon session being held. The
topics considered were most interesting,
and the teachers quite generally joined
in the discussions.
Thomas j. Howard of Bountiful had for
his subject, School Children's Eyes" He
called attention to the defects of vision
among students and in the discussion that
followed some personalities of injury to
the sight We're suggested.
Principles of Interpretation in Child
Study" was the subject treated by d. H.
Sedgwick of Bountiful. ]. W. Evans spoke
of the ''AuXiliaries of Pedagogy" e. NJ.
Whitesides discussed Appreciation.
The Teachers institute meets semi
monthly during the winter months in
lieu of holding an official institute during
the summer vacation. This is a new de-
parture and was introduced by SuDerin-
tendent Porter as an experimental prop
oSition. He has become convinced that
better results can be had from series
of institutes than from one Drotracted
session. The teachers have opportunity
to consider, digest and put into practice
the ideas advanced, whereas when a sue
ceSSion of subjects is treated as they must
be in a summer institute, the ideas gained
from one discussion become more or less
confused with subsequent topics, and out
of a mass of good material the average
teacher gains comparatively little.
1t is very probable that other counties
in the state will adopt this new departure.

NSpecldl
Provo, Nov. 27.-There was a large at
tendance at the stake tabernacle here to-
day. Many people from neighboring
towns came to the county seat and spent
the afternoon in devotion at the Young
Mems conference. Speakers from the
county and from Provo delivered eloquent
appeals to the youth. Professor George
ii. Brimhall of the Brigham Young acad-
state, eXhOrted his listeners to a faithful
observance of their religious duty. He
spoke in reVerential. eloquent terms OF
the teachings his father and mother had
given him, and said that they formed the
rock on which he built the indestructible
structure of his testimony.
Apostle Heber j. Grant was the main
Gent missionary work being done by the
young men of the state; of the necessity
of doing more labor at home than is be-
ing done, encouraging those who by mere
negligence in things religious are losing
faith; of the benefits derived from read
ing works on religion, and of the unceaS-
ing labor of the high church officials for
the advancement OF the young men. He
spoke in laudatory words of the great
work being done by the Improvement Era
and urged his audience to help it as much
as possible in it's successful career. 1t is
the state organ of the Improvement asso-
citation and is invaluable to the elder in
Zion. He said that 500 600 tracts had been
distributed this year and it was his de-
sire that the number be increased next.
and that next year and the year following
the young men will be better able to WORK
diligently in the great missionary field
He encouraged his listeners to work
faithfully and to read continually the
writings of the leading men in Zion.

Provo, Nov. 27.-Yesterday morning Earl

left here, one of the strongest and health
lest of men; he returned almost a. skel-
eton. For six weeks he lay in the city
hospital of st. Louis, subjected to all the
raVageS of typhoid fever, but happily he
rallied at the point of death, just when
the fever had spent is force. Owing TO
his extreme weakness no one was al
lowed to see him yesterday. Today he
told The Herald correspondent some of
his experiences in camp at Jacksonville.
His story is like those of others who have
returned, tale of mistreatment and
hardships and sorrow. He, like all the
other boys. wanted to go to Cuba and
fight, and he says now that if he could
have had one battle with the SDaniards
he would have been content. AS it is, he
simply passed away the days and weeks
and months in monotonous camp life. On
duty and off duty, day in and day out,
the same old thing to help augment the
whips and sings of an Outrageous for
tune. He saw Alger inspect one-fourth
of the regiment at nightfall, the rest be-
ing i'll, and read his report: "All in fine
condition"
He was detailed to do nurse work in
the typhoid ward at the hospital Suffer
ing from an internal injury he silently
did his duty until at last he was dis
charged.
Mr.. Allen was the second Provo volun-
teer who signed his name at the first call.
He enlisted as a cavalryman, but owing
to his fine physical condition, he was
asked to join the rough riders.
