Philip Strong could not decide what
was best to do.
The postman that evening had
brought him two letters, and he had
Just finished reading them. He sat
with his hands claSprd over his knee.
leaning back in his chair and looking
out through his study window. He
was evidently thinking very hard, and
the two letters were the cause of it.
Finally he rose. went to his study
door and called down the stairs:
Sarah, l wish you would come up
here. l want your help"
"All right. Philip, Ill be up in a min.
ute." responded a voice from below.
and very soon the minister's wife came
up stairs into her husbands study.
whats the matter?' she said as
she came into the room. 1T must be
something very serious. for you don't
call me up here unless you are in great
distress. You remember the last time
YOU called me. you had shut the tassel
Of your dressing gown under the lid
Of your writing desk. and had to cut
you loose. You aren't fast anywhere
now, are you!
Philip smiled quantity. "Yes, am.
I'm in a strait betwiXt two. Let me
read these letters. and you will see"
So he began at once. and we will
copy the letters. omitting dates:
CALVARY CHURCH. MILTON.
Rev. Philip Strong:
Dear Sir-At q meeting Of the Milton Calvary
church, held last week, it was voted unanimously
to extend you a call to become pastor OF this
church at a salary Of $1,000 year. We trust that
you will find il in accordance with the will OF
the Head OF the church to accept this decision on
the part Of Calvary church and become its pastor.
The church is in good condition and has the
hearty support of most OF the leading families in
the town. II is the strongest in membership and
financially Of the seven principal churches here.
We await your reply. confidently hoping you will
decide to come to We have been without
settled pastor now for nearly year. since the
death OF Dr. Brown. and we have united upon
you as the person most eminently fitted to fill the

Becoming q British Subject.

1t is an easy thing to become Brit
Ish subject. All that an alien has to do
Is to declare his intention to reside
within the British dominions on leav-
ing his own country. and forthwith he
takes out his naturalization papers, is
sued to him by the secretary of state
upon his taking the oath Of allegiance.
These papers invest him with the
rights and privileges Of Britisher, ex-
cept that he is barred from becoming
a priyy councillor or a member Of par
lament and also barred from accepting
office under the crown. But if an alien
be naturalized by special act Of par
lament passed for his own benefit
then he becomes as much British
subject and has all the rights and
privileges as though native.

CHAPEL HILL CHURCH. ELMpALE.
Rev. Philip Strong:
Dear Brothcr-At meeting Of the Elmdale
Chapel Hill church. held last week Thursday, il
was unanimously voted TO extend you call to
become pastor Of the church at a salary OF 5000
q year, with two months vacation. to be selected
at your own convenience. The Chapel Hill church
IS in a prosperous condition. and many OF the
members recall your career in the college with
much pleasure. This is especially strong CEN
ter for church work. the proximity of the boys
academy and the university making the situation

do. We most earnestly hope you will consider
this call not purely formal. but as from the
hearts OF the people We are. very cordially

the minister again.

1T is a bother. isn't it?' replied Phil
in. so gravely that his wife laughed
heartily at his tone.
Well the question is. what to do
with the letters" resumed the minister.
(which of the two churches DO you
prefer?" asked his wife.

church as far as my preference is con-
cerned."
"Then why not accept their call. if

Within week Philip Strong had
moved to Milton. rs the church wished
him to occupy the pulpit at once. The
parsonage was well planned house
next the church. and his wife soon
made everything look very homelike.
The first Sunday evening after Philip
preached in Milton. for the first time,
he chatted with his wife over the
events OF the day as they sat before n
cheerful op,n fire in the large CRATE.
It was late in the fall and the nights
were sharp and frosty.
Are you tired tonight, Philip? ask
ed his wife.

Philip Strong. with a smile and sigh,
took up his pen and wrote replies to
the calls he had received, refusing the
call to Elmtlale and accepting the one
to Milton. And so the strange story of
great hearted man really began.
When lie had finished writing these
two letters. he wrote another, which
throws so much light on his character
and his purpose in going to Milton that

ing necessary to its full understanding
This is the letter:

whatever with the Vanderbilt system.
The line will be built by Mr.. Tiffany
and a syndicate of his friends. If Mr..

The line will not follow the old route

vious to going to Coalville he made a
trip to Denver and on the return jour

the snow became so deep that the train
could not proceed, and there it re-
manned for six days. The passengers

SHERIFF HOWELLS RETURNS
BRINGS BACK J. B. ROWAN, WHO
Is CHARGED WITH FORGERY.
The Prisoner Arraigned and Enters
a Plea of Not Guilty-He Talks
of the Affair.

Sheriff John F. Howegls arrived in the
from Richmond, Va, having in custody
]. B. Rowan, alias r. NJ. Corey, who is
charged with forging check on the
German bank of Evansville, Ind, and
passing the same on the National Bank
of the Republic of this city.
At o'clock yesterday afternoon Row
an was aTraigned before Justice Par
dee and pleaded not guilty to the
charge of forgery.
The complainant is z. w. Duncan,
cashier of the National Bank of the
Republic, and it is alleged that the de-
PENDANT, on Sept. 4, 1897, committed the
act of forgery with intent to defraud
the Grote Manufacturing company of
Indiana and the National Bank of the
Republic of this city by writing the
following check: Evansville Ind,
Sept. 4, 1897. The German bank, pay to
the order of E. L. Frybarger, 1866.
(Signed) Grote Manufacturing COM
pany, per F. Grote, Pres" Endorsed
on the back, Pay to the order of j. B.
Rowan. E. L. Frybarger. j. B.
Rowan" 1t is alleged that the check is
d forgery and counterfeit.
The complaint further alleges that on
Sept. 10, 1897 the defendant, with intent
to defraud the National Bank of the
Republic and the Grote Manufacturing
company, passed the alleged forged
check upon E. w. Duncan, who was
then the cashier of the National Bank
of the Republic.
Justice Pardee fixed the bail at 81, 500,
in default of which Rowan was COM
mitted TO the county Jail. The hearing
was set for next Tuesday at 2 p. m.
Rowan, who says his name is r. NJ
10 oh of or
gerry, and says he has never before been
in Salt Lake City, although having
passed through the state several years
ago on the train. He attributes his ar
rest to the Pinkertons working for the
Bankers Protective association, and
claims they have gotten the wrong
man. He was serving a fifteen months
term in the county Jail at Richmond.
Va, on a charge of obtaining money
under false pretenses, and upon COM
plotting eleven months was pardoned by
Governor Tyler, owing to a disease
which required a, surgical operation.
The pardon was delayed, however, he
says until the arrival of Sheriff How
ellis. The prisoner spoke in compliment
tary terms of Sheriff Howells, saying
that the officer provided him with a
coat to keep him warm. and contrasts
the Sheriff'S kindness with the treat
ment he received in the southern prison,
where the bill of fare, he declares, was
two meals of cornmeal and water each
day. Rowan demands medical treat
ment and asks to be taken to a hos
pital. He says he was born in Australia
and is SO years of age, but has lived in
the United States many years.
Sheriff Howells states that he had a
pleasant trip, and was shown many
courtesises in Richmond, being driven
to the various places of interest about
the city.

Will Receive 0ne-third of the U. Prs
Big Order.
MANY STEEL COALCARS
NOW READY FOR DELIVERY
FROM MILWAUKEE HOUSE.
Will Also Get Share of New Loco
motives, Baggage-cars and
Coaches-O. R. & N. Will Be Sup
plied-The Colorado Storm-Both
Lines Blocked-An Oregon Road.

Approximately one-third of the mann
moth order for equipment placed a few
days ago by the Union Pacific is in
tended for the use of the Oregon Short
Line on the Utah, Idaho and Montana
divisions. This fact shows more con-
clusively than ever the complete con-
solidation of the two roads and the
source from whence the Short Zine de-
riveS the means for its support With
out doubt another share of the order
is intended for the Oregon Railway q
Navigation company, also controlled by
the Union Pacific.
There are in Milwaukee at present
about 300 new steel coal cars OF $4,000
pounds capacity each, ready TO De
turned over to the Short Line on or be-
fore March 1. This number comes out
of the original order of the Union Paci-
fic for 1000 which. as before stated, IS
the first order for steel cars ever placed
by road west of the Missouri river.
The giant engines will also be divid-
ed, though probably not at so early a
date. The Union Pacific is ready to
handle them now, but it is likely some
improvements in the way of bridges
and more substantial roadbeds will be
made along the route of the Short Line
before they are put into use.
This was one matter considered by
the engineering officials while Mr..
Berry was in the city. There are forty
of the ten-wheel locomotives of eighty
tons each and eight of 100 tons each.
The former class will be put to test
on the Short Line earlier than the lat
ter.
Three of the six improved baggage
cars will go to the Short Line. while
the diners will be operated conformity,
leaving the Union Pacific at Granger
and going on to Huntington over the
other road.
The chair cars and coaches will meet
with like distribution, while the
wrecking train and pile-driver is for
the exclusive use of the Short Line.

From the U. S. Supreme Court.

A writ OF mandate from the United
States supreme court was received yes
terday by the state supreme court in
the case Of Perry A. Thomas and wife
VS.. Springville City, appellant
The action was brought to recover $5,-
600 for injuries sustained by Mrs.
Thomas by her horse, attached to a
buggy. backing off bridge at Spring
vile City. rl
1t was alleged that the condition of
the bridge frightened the animal. The
jury before which the case was tried
found that the bridge was maintained
in a bad condition by the negligence Of
SpTingville City and a majority of the
jurors returned a verdict for Mrs
Thomas for $780, which, however, was
reduced to $1,000 The territorial su-
preme court affirmed the judgment,
from which the city appealed to the
United States supreme court, which
non-suited the judgment of the terri
torial supreme court on the ground that
a verdict by less than twelve jurors is
unconstitutional
