Grand Hunt of Wild Horses.

Salt Like. Utah. Oct g. In Washing
ton and Iron counties and across the
Utah line into northern Arizona, Thurs-
day, the people OF the Canaan district
propose to begin grand hunt of desert
horses. 1t will start at Pipe Springs.
Where it will end 10 one pretends to
know.
Ths mustangs, or desert horses, are go
thick in the district between Hurricane
Ridge and Kanab Wash and over the
Canaan range to Mt. Turnbull that the
range is being eaten up, gentle horses
aie being run off and many valuable an
imals are being shot by careless sports
men firing on supposed desert horses.
Two years ago a similar hunt WAS helo
and 800 horses shot and left on the
plains, and $50 were run down and dis
patched with the exception Of 80 consid
cred worth keeping. Predictions are
freely made that this record will be
broken Thursday.

Galveston, Oct. 8.--Gaiveeton was wis.,
tied by the heaviest rain storm in it's his
tory today. The rain began last night,
but the storm which formed off Calves
ton did not break until early this morn
ing, and from 3 am. until 3 pm. the
precipitation was enormous. For the
fourteen hours ending at 1890 p.m..
IA O8 inches OF water fell From 8 a.m.
to l pm, three inches fell. The rain
was accompanied by wind. which blew
40 miles an hour At 11:30 am, from the
east. The streets were inundated and
street car traffic was stopped, all busi
ness being prac tically suspended.
The damage cannot be estimated at
this time, but it is not believed to be
heavy. Some OF the buildings were par
italy flooded by water backing over the
streets. The tide WAS only two feet
above normal, and there was no salt wa
tor in the streets. The rain was local,
extending only along portion Of the
Texas coast and inland for fifty to sixty
miles with less intensity.

Of Gen. Washington at the Siege Of
Yorktown. If 1t ever leaves the Bishop
FAMILY it is safe to say that the sum paid
for it will be about that which Mr..
Bishop could get for his farm.
The flask holds a half pint and is Of
old-fashioned blue glass. Running over
the outside are seams of what looks like
china and porcelain. 1t is not really q
glass bottle, perhaps, but for the lack o.
name for the material composing il IL
is called glass.
The story behind the interesting relic
is not q very long one, but IL is fun of
interest The bottle was given to stita
Bishop, a soldier in Washington's army
and an ancestor Of Robert Bishop, the
present owner. Mr.. Bishop was an or
Derby at WaShingtOn's Headquarters dur
ing the siege Of Yorktown. 1t was prop
ably after the surrender Of COrnwaltis
that Gen. Washington sent Orderly Bisn-
op over to Williamsburg on business Al
ter giving him various directions regard
ing what he was to do in the old capital
Gen. Washington gave to his orderly the
bottle and told him to have II filled with
good whisky a. tavern in Williamsburg
There is no tradition as 10 the brand Ike
soldier was directed TO purchase. which
Is unfortunate. as the enterprlSing dis
tiller Of today would find II an excellent
name for the liquor he is making at
present. But Mr.. Bishop did remember
that the general charged him to be care.
full not to break or lose the bottle, as u
was a present made him by the Marquis
de Lafayette.
OF course, Orderly Bishop once knew
why he did not return the flask. and OF
course he told the family when he cai:ie
home from the war; but the reason Is
forgotten. and it is not likely that it VIII
be known again.
The bottle is guarded most sacredly. A
glass case has long covered il, and IL Is
seldom raised TO allow a closer inspec-
ton. The genuineness Of the relic is ne
yond question. Its history has been u
part of the history Of the Bishop family
for generations.

given the lift of his influence to the stu

There were directions about the "waist-
coat" also; 'pantalOons" and ''surtout"
This college statute also says: "A sur
tout or outside garment is not to he sub
Stituted for the coat" This reminds one
of commencement, but the students are
permitted to wear black gowns, in which
they may appear on all public occasions. -
There was this liberty allowed in the rse
of the gown costume: "A nightgown OF
cotton or linen or silk fabric. made in The

on exhibition or other occasions when an

In 1919 the screw turned once more
but, as it read. this was turn back and
a turn for the better: "On Sabbath, ex-
hibition, examination and commence
ment days and on all other public occa-
sions each student in public shall wear
black coat with buttons OF the same color,
and black hat or cap"
1t has been said that the difficulty of
examining the color of their buttons in
creased, and that academic sentiment
tended toward freedom"

dress now is of the Oxford type, and.
