Twenty-four Mormon elders from
Utah are at work in Missouri prepar-
ing for the building on the famous
temple lot" at Independence of the
great temple which is to supplant
that at Salt Lake as the earthly
throne Of Mormonism, and Jacob N.
Larsen is president of the elders who
are working chiefly in the vicinity of
Kansas City and Independence.
eve cannot say yet just how soon
we shall build the temple" said Mr..
Larsen, "but you and I will live to see
it's completion and to see Independ-
ence the new center CT Mormonism, as
Salt Lake is to-day. Joseph Smith
prophesied that Independence was to
be the new Jerusalem of Mormonism
and we are working IN fulfllment of
that prophecy. Utah will not be for
saken by our people when we get
ready TO build a temple in Independ-
ence. Of course, great many will
come here from Utah, but we will
have our churches out there, all of
which will be under the control of the
Independence church."
Already the Utah Mormons are COM
ing. Five years ago there were only
four families of Brighamites (Utah
Mormons) in Jackson county. Now
there are hundreds. Some of these are
local converts, but more are immi-
grants from Utah.

NOW A MISNOMER.
Title of Brakeman on Passenger
Trains May BE Changed to That
of Assistant Conductor

Some of the railroads are considering
the advisability of abandoning the
time-honored title of brakeman on pas
senger trains and calling him assistant
conductor. The brakes on passenger
trains are no longer worked by hand,
but by air, and, therefore, it is argued
that the old title is misnomer
'The name brakeman" said a rail
road man, 'shas been misn omer ever
since brakemen ceased to be brakemen
that is, when air brakes came into
use. A brakeman nowadays has moth
ing whatever to do with the brakes.
He simply attends to signals, calls
names Of stations, and otherwise as
sists in conducting the trains. The
change to assistant conducto or is, logi-
cal, because these men are frequently
promoted to conductors. Besides, it
would tend to raise the standard of
the calling.'
This question of a change of title
will probably be taken up at the next
meeting Of the Brotherhood of Rail-
way Trainmen, which is made up prin-
cipally of brakemen, and all the roads
will be asked to adopt this change.

He Hated Dem British ers.

When Admiral Cockhurn's marauders
ravaged Tilghman' S island in 1914, dur
ing the war between the United States
and Great Britain, they found differ
ent country from the Tilghman's island
Of today. Then the white population
was less than 50. Old George, Thigh
nan slave, who afterWard belonged to
the HarrisOns Of Long Point, where in
his old age he had a comfortable quar-
ter and a boy to wait Oh him, was one
of the victims Of Cockburn's marauders
and used to tell how "dem ar British
ers made me run down me own hawg,
and not only dat, my young master,
dey make me kill i'm and skin i'm, hang

burn with indignation at the memory.
Old George lived to be a hundred, ac-
cording to the record Of his birth kept
by his mothers master, and lived in
great comfort in his old age. He died
in 1856 on Cedar Point farm, the home
then of his last master, the late Theo-

William Phce, of Rio Arriba coun-
ty, had an exciting encounter with
bears on the Upper Navajo, near the
Colorado line, IN New Mexico. While
in search of a small bunch of sheep
he came upon six bears killing his
flock. The ranchman killed one of the
animals, and the others fed. Price
tried to load the dead pear on his
horse, which became alarmed and
kicked Price, breaking his leg near the
knee. Night came, and with it the re-
naming five bears. All night Price
kept the animals at bay with the butt
Of his gun, his cartridges having run
out. He was aided only by a small
collie. In the morning he was rescued
by passing yaqueros. -"

Composition On Breathing.

A boy, ii years old, who was told to
write all he could about breathing in n
composition, handed in the following:
Breath is made Of air. We breathe
with our lungs, our lights our liver
and kidneys. If it wasn't for our breath
we would die when we slept. Our
breath keeps the life a-going through
The nose when we are asleep. Boys
that stay in a room all day should not
breathe. They should wait until they
get outdoors. Girls kill the breath with
corsets that squeezes the diagram.
Girls can't holler or run like boys be-
cause their diagram is squeezed too
much. If was girl had rather be
a boy so I can run and holler and have

Many American shoe salesmen with

report great progress in this market,
and find they are now sought where
formerly they had to plead for an open

in Birmingham recently, told me that
his books for the year recorded the sale
of 100000 worth of shoes in Great
Britain alone, and stated that his books
would not show all the sales he had
made here because there were SO many
of his customers who could not be per-
suaded that they could not buy better
by buying from the home house d.

represent the sales Of one concern, and
there are, understand, at least 20
other shoe houses represented in Eng

turer has established retail store in

in a different section of the city, and
contemplates an extension throughout
the provinces. Large manufacturers
have found it to their advantage in the
United States to establish their own
retail stores throughout the cities Of
the country, and this is much more
important here, as the average English
shoPkeeper gives such long credits and
has so much of his money represented
on his books that he cannot keen an
extensive stock. Low-prieed cash deal
ings, one price to all, confirmed by
plainly~marked figures, are features of
business just as acceptable to the buy
