AT the services In the Tabernacle yes
terday afternoon Elders Joseph Hall,
of Ogden, and John Nicholson. of Salt
Lake. were the speakers The meeting
was presided over by Elder Joseph Il.
Taylor Of the stake presidency, who
announced the opening Lyman, Come
all We sons OF Zion" which was sung
by the choir and congregation. Prayer
was offered by Bishop Joseph r. Nor
gan. The choir then sang; 'Hark
listen to the trumpeters."
Elder Hall began by expressing his
appreciation Of the privilege OF living
in a day and age when the Gospel had
been restored for the benefit OF man
kind. He knew that God lived, that
He had spoken unto US through His
servants, and that those who would
give heed 10 His message, would re-
ceive every blessing that had been
promised, Elder Hall had had much
pleasure In preaching the Gospel in
foreign lands. and II was his expert
ence that those who were faithful to
the calling imposed upon them. were
blessed abundantly and were enabled
TO overcome all obstacles.
Elder John Nicholson was the next
speaker. He, too, expressed his APP
probation OF living in this day and
age, The Gospel was the greatest
boon ever offered to mankind, and
through II thousands had been richly
blessed and rescued from q condition
not much to be desired The speaker
turned his attention to the restoration
Of the Gospel through the boy Prophet.
Joseph Smith, and showed how through
revelation the plan of life and saliva
ton had been made plain to the under
standing Of men. This plan, though
not generally believed In at the pres
ent time. was the only one through
which men could be saved. for upon
obedience TO It's teachings all blessings
had been predicated. 1t comprised the
principles OF faith In God. repentance
from sin, baptism by immersion for the
remission OF sins and the laying on Of
hands for the gift OF the Holy Ghost.
This message was preached by Christ |
Himself. Peter also preached II on the
ia yof Pentecost, when, addressing the |
mighty multitude, he admonished them |
10 repent Of their sins and turn unto |
God that by 80 doing the gift of the |
Holy tnost might come upon them. |
The promise, said he was not only un. |
to them but unto their children and TO |
all that were afar on, even as many |
as the Lord our God should call The
speaker said that the Lord was calling |
US today, and that His hand was out. |
stretched to save all who would be |
obedient to that call Closing, Elder
Nicholson bore feryent testimony. He |
knew that God lived. that Joseph smith
was a Prophet Of God. and that the
teachings revealed through him were
calculated to save and exalt all who |
would be saved.
Between the addresses Miss Mabel
Cooper sang in her charming style. 'Afy
Redeemer and My Lord" The closing
selection was the anthem. "Hosanna,"
Benedlction was pronounced By Elder
Arthur Winter.

Big Reunion and Excursion Of the
Old Fighters Tomorrow,
SALT LAKES PROGRAM.
Warriors Have Fixed Things 60 Have
A Lot of Fun and Meet
Ola Acquaintance.

Saltair tomorrow will be the scene
Of reunion that should do good TO
the heart Of every man, woman and
child that sees 1t. The day is to be
given over to the veterans Of Indian
warfare In Utah. Years ago ii was
sometimes necessary for the sturdy
young men Of the day to shoulder their
rifles In a hurry and rush to some pre-
arranged gathering point TO fight for
the protection Of their families and
homes, The policy OF the people, as
taught by Gov. Brigham Young, was
one Of Cancellation and peace towards
the aboriglnes who inhabited the land
prior to the advent Of the pioneers;
but Notwithstanding the efforts of the
people In this direction, the Indians
would at times become dissatisfied and
harass the settlers. tSock was driven
away and slaughtered and the homes
OF the people placed In danger Of de-
structlon by fire set by the Indians.
Especially was this the case In settle
ments remote from Salt Lake City, and
as a natural consequence the soldlerly
services OF the men In those districts
were most often called into requisltlon,
Therefore the veterans of tomorrow's
reunion VIII come In large part from
the outside settlements extending from
ogden TO the north and Santaquin In
the south. However Salt Lake county

lull or the spirit OF tomorrow when he
told or what they were going 10 do at |

on Saturday afternoon there was a
decidedly scared train crew OF a work
train on the Union Pacific at Castle
Rock, Utah. II appears that there
was a gang Of close upon 100 Italians
working on the track improvements at
that poin. Unknown 10 the crew the
Italians attached the cable on the un-
loading plow 10 the engine with the
result that when Conductor G Hubbard
gave the signal to start up one OF the
Italians named John Parrillo was
dumped out with the ballast, sustaining
injuries that caused his death In
very short time
The fellow countrymen Of the dead
man thought that the crew was to
blame and led by big fellow, they
proceeded to attempt 20 clean up the
entire aggregation. The crew, panic
stricken Jumped the engine and fled
from the pcene Of the accident.

Hurrah for Department Of agriculture

From the Lgnn Daily Item.
The Department Of Agriculture was
formerly a jest and a by-word; its re.
ports, sent by train loads to placate
voters, were relegated 10 attics OIL
thrown into the ash barrels. Seed.
sent 10 those whonever asked for them,
as is fit for unsought gifts, would not
turn out right. OF late years this i'm.
portant department has been elevated
to a Cabinet position and its scope
broadened. In forestry It has atoned
for the past; in horticulture, it is now
directing intelligent effort; In the
single division Of cotton culture II has
developed an Egyptian staple OF cot.
ton which will thrive on American
soil, furnishing a soft fibre suited for
underwear and hosiery. In place Of a
cotton plant liable to attacks Of a de.
structive insect, it has hybridlzed a
variety which is immune to such
creatures-bad for the bugs but better
for the planters. This work reaches
beyond the agricultural interests and
touches the affairs Of the whole PEG.
