Under me sun

The men who have gone before US
have sung the SONGS We sing,
The worus OF our ciafnurou.s chorus,
They were heard OF the ancient kinS.
The chords of the Tyre that thrill US
They were struck in the years gone by
And tne arrows OF deatn mat hIli us
Are found where our fathers lie.
The vanity sung OF the Preacher
Is vanity stiu to-day;
The moan OF the stricken creature
Has rung in the woods AWAY.
But the songs are worth resinging
With the cnange OF no single note'
Ana the spoken words are ringing
AS they rang in the years remote
There is no new road to follow, Love!
Nor need there ever be,
For the old, with its hill and hollo"
Love!
Is enough for you and me.

NEW YORK, Jan. 30--Once again has
Chez DeYery taken occasion to htsrt de-
nance at President York, Of the Police
Board, and, indeed, at The Board itself.
His meIhod, on this occasion, IS to ignore
one or the boards written orders TO ham,
and, in the hasty inquiry wslseh mas been
made, it is found that his supporter, as
usual is Commissioner Sexton
The ilitcil, this time, Is on the much
disputed question of promotions. Tue
: Chiefz insists that the charter gives MN
the right to detail patroanen TO act as
roundsmeIl, irrespective OF any civil ser
vice examlna ton, while the board nay
make permanent his selections, should 1t
desire.
Chief Devery a year ago promoted nine
teen patroImen TO the rank OF roundsmen
for bravery. But the Municipal Civil
Service Commission held this to De illegal.
The matter is now in the courts.
FAILED TO COMPLY WlTd ORDER
AT ils meeting a week ago yesterday
the Police Board asked the Municipal Civil
Service Commission to forward a Ist OF
patrolmen eligible to promotion TO sile
rank of rpunCSillan, and at tine same taine
directed the Chef to instruct the precinct
commanders to inform all patrolmen de-
srrng to take the examination to NE the!r
applications before February 9TH. rms
order was taken from the board room 10
the Clief by a special messenger.
1t was learned yesterday that, although
3, week had e.apsed, Chief Devery tad not
complied with the order But neariy All
members OF. the force had seen II pup
lished, and about a hundred OF them hled
their applications, without waiting for the
official order.
When President York was asked yester-
day why the Chief had not sent out the
order it was plain the information con-
tanned in the question was q surprise 10

Ogden, Utah, Sept. 26.--seldorn has
this city been visited b. the hand OF
death where it was 80 keenly felt as at
the present time. At $40 o'clock last
night Ethel Ford, daughter Of Mr. ana
Mrs. l.. w. Ford. passed away after an
Illness Of over week from typhoid
fever Ethel was born in Ogden and
was over II years Of age when death
stole her away. She was the pet Of the
whole town because Of her extraordi-
nary accomplishment as violiniste,
and on account Of the sweet disposition
which she possessed. For some time
Miss Ford had been studying violin at
San Francisco under Prof. Minnetti OF
Berlin and made rapid progress In I'm
ishing the schooling which she had al
ready received from her father, whose
ability is 50 well known among musi-
clans throughout the State. Mr.. and
Mrs. Ford are almost distracted oven
their daughters taking away, but their
grief is scarcely greater than ~ that of
their musical friends IN ogden, VIII
thought OF her more as daughter ana
sister than otherwise. For a couple OF
years Ethel has been a member Of the
Grand Opera House orchestra and her
constant appearance at the house has
particularly endeared her 10 the public.

PIONEER JOHN ELLIS.
At 1906 o'clock last night Ogden sus-
tained another loss although In this
case the sorrow Is softened by the
knowledge that this was the natural gO-
ing out OF long life of sturdy up
Brightness and unobstrusive usefulness.
Succumbing to general debility at his
home on Wall avenue, John Ellis, after
blessing earth with his presence fol
over AZ years, went TO meet the Great
Creator: and SO far as thorough good
ness Is concerned, few have been SO well
prepared for the last journey Most
everybody In Ogden knew the deceased,
and many a hayward boy can mark hts
good turning point with kindly pat
on the back and quiet word OF en-
from Uncle" John Ellis.
II wigs fifty years ago that this pioneer
came here from England, and for true
kindness and splendid manhood his
life has been a model one.
Funeral services will be held at the
