Most encouraging news has just been
received at the offices of the Sheba COM
pany from it's Nevada mining property.
A letter to Secretary Child, received on
Sunday, says fine ore has been
ed in both No. 5 and No. 2 tunnels, and
that each day shows it up better. In
the No. 2 tunnel above the Sheba shaft
a nice streak of brittle silver, assaying
about $4,000 per ton, has made it's APP
pearance. While occasional chunks come
in that are worth s. per pound.
A dispatch received yesterday says the
new hoist was started at the Sheba shaft
on Saturday, and that it was working
perfectly. The unwatering of the shat.
Is now progressing rapidly. The good
news was received with much satisfaction
by the Salt Lake shareholders, who have
u~nbounded faith In the property.-Salt

Late Wednesday afternoon the BODY of
Miss Lolo vonderhyde was recovered

gest was given a trial, but finally all
were Abandoned and the searchers went
back to the original method of stretch

the island which parts the river at that
point. The boat on the north end OF

while they were in full fight, and pierre

with bullets from a 1920 calibre. Chang
ing from the larger guns to a % rifle, wal
nuts, dice, poker chips, pennies and Jumps

broken and made to disappear In rapid

Captain Bartlett is not only a quick, ac-

some exceptionally clever mirror trick

~ am almost discouraged by the re-
suits of popular education" said an
old teacher For 40 years I have been
teaching in the public schools, and
many of the earliest pupils are now
men of middle age. What discourages
me is that so many of my brightest
scholars have proved failures in the
professions, in business and in public
life, while the most successful of our
citizens were, as a rule, classed amoAg
the dull pupils.
Five of the leading lawyers in this
city were my pupils, and they were all
below the average in scholarship, de
pertinent and punctuality. Several of
our most prominent business men be.
long to the same group, while among
physicians, engineers and ministers
find that some of my dullest pupils
are in the front rank.
ION the other hand, some Of my
brightest and most promising scholars
are little better than tramps, and most
of them are below the average in the

a New Crre for Tubercuroais.

The announcement made recently
to the Berlin Academy of Sciences by
Professor Emil Won Behring of the
results of his researches in consump.
ton is of the deepest import,
Professor Behring's notable act in
turning over the Nobel prize OF $40,-
GOO to the medical research institution
he has founded at Marhurg was recent
~ noted in these columns; his
standing in the scientific world, his
discovery of the diphtheria serum,
stamp his judgment with the highest
authority. Briefly, as the result of
six years investigation, Professor
Behring finds that tuberculosis in man
and in cattle (and other animals) is
one and the same desease-originat,
ing with one and the same germ.
This, it need hardly be said, is
Numerically opposed to the views of
the famous DR.. Koch of Berlin. Pro-
fessor Behring has found that the
disease-bearing germ is altered in
passing from the blood of man to cat
tie, or the reverse; hence the confu-
sion which has existed. But what
is most important is that Professor
Behring has been able to inoculate
very young animals (hitherto found
impossible), and has obtained from
these an antitoxine serum, after the
manner that the smallpox vaccine is
cultivated. This is stirring news, and
should it prove well grounded, anOth
err Nobel prize should be awarded this
great bacteriologist. The event will
be awaited with the keenest interest

The Ingenious Chinese.

Peter Sands of Castle Valley, COM
pleted recently a tour of the world.
Of the people he conyersed with the
Chinese most impressed him. This is
what he says on this topic:
"They tell you the French are eco
nomical and ingenious. They point
out to you how the French train rats
to clean the flesh from bones that are
used in manufacturing and they de-
clare this people, when they kill rats,
use their skins for gloves, their furs
for caps, their bones for toothpicks
and their tendons for gelatine. All
that may be true.
"But in certain parts of China they
have trained gulls that fish for them,
and a good gull will fetch it's master
from so to 100 pounds OF fish day.
They have trained cats that kill little
birds for them-30 or 40 birds, maybe,
to an animal, and they have trained
dogs that, day in and day out work
like Trojans keeping the crows out
of the rice fields. Philadelphia Re-
