A School For Black Magic.
New York Times)


Three Parisians well known in pseu-
do-scientific and literary circles
abroad. NM. Barlet, Papus and Sedir,
have founded a curious school in the
French capital which just now is the
talk of salons of a certain social influ-
ence. The school is to initiate its pu-
pills into the mysteries of occultism or
black magic. 1t has been established
for the benefit Of persons who would
follow in the footsteps Of ParacelSuS
ard Trismegistus. These persons. the
founders believe, are more numerous
than is generally supposed, and for
them has been provided a complete
course of instruction in Sorcery and
witchcraft, of aStrology and the other
hermetic sciences.
The prospectus of the institution con-
tains this legend: 1.-The initiated. in
virtue of the powers transmitted them
by the masters. reign in heaven, COM
mand on earth and are feared in
hades." The period of initiation ex-
tends over three years. yet the time
may be shortened provided the looked
for results are achieved before the end
of the prescribed term.
During the first year the student -
required to acquire as much Hebrew as
will enable him TO comprehend the
books of the old alchemists." He be-
gins, TOO, study Oh tne CONSTITUTION OF
man and of his hidden forces" The
second year includes a continuation of
the studies of the previous year, to-
gether with the learning of Sanscrit
and exercises in hypnotism and SOM
nambulism. In this year the student
also is presented to the mysteries OF
spirit phenomena, and learns the
practical adaptation of the various
arts of divination." And finally. in his
third wear the student is made ac
quainted with "the action of human
thought on the invisible and with
many other obscure matters, the COM
prehension of which depends upon the
care that he has devoted to his previous
studies"
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1899-12-31

this people that by the wise and jul
dicious use OF the water that comes
to them from the springs in the noun
tafns they produce more hay. grain and
farm products than any district in the
county. Several thousand dollars
worth of alfalfa seed has been sold by
TIE farmers OF Meadow the last sea-
son and preparations are being made to
increase the amount next year. A most
successful dairy buSineEs is being car
ried on here, which is a. source of reve-
nue. to the people. The beautiful red
sandstone school house adds much to
the aftractivenees of the place and ed
ucatfonal matters are abreast of the
times. Public enterprise is not want
ing and bright prospects and hopes are

Some two miles south of the present
site Of Deseret stands quaint old mud

the sos, when the pioneers who came
to reclaim the desert land by diverting
the water Of the Sewer river from its
course were compelled to erect a fort
ification as a protection from the at
tacks OF the red man. Early and late
they laboTed to control the waters of
that treacherous and uncertain river,
but vain We're their efforts. and hhe
hardy band, in despair, gave up the
labor and went to various parts os the
eastern side of the county. where set-
Elements were springing up.
On the mountain streams some fiji
teen or twenty years later another eff
fort was made and after much labor
and disappointment in not being able
to control the waters the people were
about TO abandon ali hopes Of ever
doing anything, when tine idea of con-
Structing a canal aud dam fartheli<up
the river, on a different plan, was de-
cided upon. That proved a success
and gave a new impetus TO the coun-
try, which began to grow rapidly. In
the early spring of 1890 and on account
Of the numerous additions from vari-
Gus parts of Utah, it was decided to
divide the precinct into three, cutting
Deserer down in area and organizing
the districts of Hinckley and Oasis.
Deseret, occupying the central part, has
for some time been the leading business
center and has and now supports
number of large BUSINESS firms. Pop
ulst;on, 200.
Hinckley district, situated about two
miles north of DeSeret, is perhaps the
largest and most fourishing of the
three towns 1t has two stores, one
creamery and a population of about 500.
Oasis is located about one mile east
from Deseref on the line of the Oregon
Short Line. At this point considerable
freight goes west to the mining camps
located IN the western part of the
county. The latest enterprise of note
at this point is the erection and opera
tion of a. large alfalfa seed plant. The
population of Oasis is about 900.

All three OF the above named towns

alfalfa seed is king. The past season
has been a most profitable one for the
farmers and some S7s, 900 has been

their lucern and lucern cheff- No part

of those quiet rural districts found in
various parts of this western country.
and while peace and quiet seem 10
characterize its inhabitants, yet they
are not by any means dead to what IS
going on around them or slow to see
the natural advantages which are at
hand. Located upon a small mountain
scream and near to each ether, for 60
cial and other advantages this small
band of Industrious, thrifty people have
established comfortable homes and at
the same time have builded q good
foundation that always brings peace
and prosperity.
Farming and stock raising is the
watchword, and they are succeeding.
From their fine orchards the finest fruit
is taken to some of the nearby mining
camps A fine school house informs
the passerby that they are much inter
es,ed in school matters. Population,

bennington.
bennington is the first town reached
in coming south into Willard county.
Here a number of thrifty farmers and
stockmen have diverted a part of the
Sewer river from its natural channel
and in the season appropriate it upon
tine land, which produces large amounts
of hay, grain and other farm products.
Considerable stock is raised here and
large numbers are brought here for
wintering The McIntyre5' ranch is one
of the largest in southern Titan. Should
the Lake Bonneville Canal company
ever perfect the plant now so much
spoken of, bennington would in
very short time be one of the leading
towns in the county. Population, 200.
Clear Lake.
Clear Lake is a small farming dis
trict located on the Oregon Short Line
railway about thirty miles west from
Fillmore, and is the point ct which
most of the railway traffic that goes TO
Fillmore, Meadow and Kanosh IS
shipped. Considerable money mas been
expended under the management of
c. w. Aldrach, who is certainly
hustler and has great hopes for the
outcome of that district.
