OGDEN. UTAH-The presence and work
of one J. Landos, a healer, is exciting the
population of Ogden. He is making some
miraculous cures Of the lame the halt and
the blind, and thousands are hocking 10
his rooms for treatment. LandOs came
here a month ago to recuperate and about
ten days ago was led to help a sick wo-
man. After this his reputation spread.
Many people suffering with chronic di-
seaSeS, blind, deaf and lame from rheu-
matism or paralysis, have been treated
and many who had been given up are now
walking and improving. The wife of
prominent attorney, belfast for three
weeks, the victim of two surgical opera

utes and is now almost well. People are
rushing into ogden for treatment by Lam

OF TIDES
TOLD BY PROF. DARWIN.
Speculation on Several of the Ebbs
and Flows.

Speculation on Several of the Ebbs
and Flows.
Professor G. II. Darwin, in his fifth
lecture in the Lowell Institute course,
explained, says the Boston Transcript,
the cause of daily high and low tides.
when the moon is over any spot on
the earth the water is drawn up to-
ward it by the force it exerts, and at
the point directly opposite on the other
side of the earth the water is also
raised in the form of big wave" said
Professor Darwin. Between these
points on either side Of the earth's cir
conference the ocean is depressed, the
moon thus tending to form a spheroid
of the waters and giving rise to two
high and two low tides in the course
of one revolution of the earth.
ITO understand the bi-mOnthly
spring and neap tides, we must take
into account also the effect of the sun
on the oceans. The force eXerted by
the sun is twenty-siX fifty-ninths as
powerful as that of the one moon, and
when there is a full moon or a new
moon the force of both bodies is act
ing together, and gives rise to the con-
ditiOn known as spring tides. But
when the moon is half way between
new and full. waxing or waning, the
force of the sun is acting at right
angles to that of the moon. As the
sun eXerts about half the power of the
moon over the tides, the difference be
tween the effect of the two acting to-
gether and in opposition is about as
three to one, so that the tides arising
from the conflict of the force of sun
and moon are only One-third as great
as the spring tides. These minor tides
are called neap tides
The observed fact that high tides do
not occur when the moon is overhead,
but several hours later, was explained
as due mainly to the comparative shall |
IOwness of the oceans and to the differ !
ent yeloCities of all points on the |
earth's surface between the maximum |
Of $4,000 miles day at the equator and |
zero at the poles.

The Dancing Girl" Of Dawson Wis
tied by Crooks-Police Are
Working on the
Case.

The police are searching for the perpe-
traitors of an unusually bold burglary
committed Saturday night in the Royal
Eagle House on Powell street.
Two of the rooms on the upper floor are
occupied by Freda Maloff, the dancing
girl of Dawson City, as she is famil-
iarly known to her friends and Emma
Smith who won fame and money in
Alaska by her sweet voice. The women
arrived here a short time ago and rented
apartments in the Royal Eagle. Miss Ma
loft displayed a number of nuggets which
she had received from her admirers in
Dawson City, and at once among the
guests in the house it was whispered that
the dancing girl had untold wealth
slowed away in her trunk. The stories of
her vast richness evidently melted the
cupidity of some thief, who determined
to rob her.
Last Saturday night Miss Maloff and
Miss Smith left the house soon after 8
o'clock to see the Republican parade
They returned to their apartments asout
half-past 10 o'clock and discovered that
burglars had paid them visit during

SLEEP WAS HIS UNDoING.
Romaldo Echerara Does Politics to
His Sorrow.

Romaldo Echerara was rudely awak-
ened from a nap he was taking on the
roof of his front porch early yesterday
morning by officers Backulich and
Peshon who took the youth for a burglar
His assertion that he at hts own
home was doubted by the policemen, and
while Backulich covered the supposed
burglar with his revolver Peshon rang
the bell of the house, arousing Echeraras
mother, much to the disgust of the son.
who had taken up his position on the
porch in an endeavor to enter the house
without her knowledge.
Echerara took in a political meeting
early in the evening, and incidentally
considerable liquor. He cheered for, and
drank to and with his favorite candidates
until quite late, and when every other
place was closed made his way toward
home The road he found long and cir
cuitous, and when he finally reached his
domicile all efforts TO find the keyhole
were unavailing. Fear of the wrath of
his mother prevented him from ringing
the bell and prompted him to scale a
pillar of the porch in the hope of finding
an unlocked window. The exertion of
climbing TO the roof of the porch added to
the sleepiness produced by his liberal po
lions of liquid refreshment of which the
young man had partaken, was his undo
ing. Falling asleep before he had gained
an entrance the watchful officers spied
him. Just how he explained the matter
to his mother will perhaps never be
known but it is rumored that he has
foreSWOrn politics.
