YELLOWSTONE IMPROVEMENT
~. Haynes Tells Something or what Is
Being Done on the Reservation.

Il. j. Haynes, president of the Mont
da and Yellowstone Park Stage Line
company, is numbered among the WIS.,
itors In Salt Lake today Mr.. Haynes
stated to the News" that this years
business has been most satisfactory
from every standpoint During the 100
days of the season he says over 1000
people went through the park, OF which
number 200 passed through Monida.
Regarding the improvements now UNI
der way in the park he says that fine
new hotel Is being erected at the Upper
Geyser under the supervision of Mr..
Remer, a California architect, Mr.. Re-
mer, he says, is putting up very novel
structure which when completed Will be
essentially the finest rustic hotel in the
United States today. The structure,
which embraces 1850 rooms for guests, Is
built entirely of logs and lava rock,
with big porch $50 feet in length In
front. In order to get arched limbs
for the cornce supports Mr.. Rener has
ridden miles through the timber, taking
with him men with axes who cut the
branches as selected and transported
them, In some cases, 40 miles. In the
center of the Office Is built a huge four
sided fireplace l6 feet wide at the base.
The entire hotel Is to be covered with
rag carpets and furnished with old
fashioned furniture and the pelts of
wild animals. Old flint lock guns viii
hang from the walls and everything
will be arranged 80 as to give the effete
easterner the idea that he Is on the
frontier.
other improvements in the park, he
says, embrace the erection Of big con-
crete bridge above the falls, Water
tanks are also being Installed at inter-
walls for over 100 miles on the roads and
the roads next season will be sprinkled
four times day IN order to lay the
volcanic dust
Mr.. Haynes Is emphatic In the state
ment that the geysers are In no wise
dying out. He says that he took
photo Of Old Faithful 90 years ago and
another with the same camera and lens
last week ana there Ia no appreciable
difference In the height or the l'sriod,
OF the eruptions "All told" ne said
people during during the 100 days of
the park season can see 4500 eruptlons
out Of which number Old Faithful Is
responsible for 1000"

time OF the civil war. was noted for his
love Of good things to eat and one day
dispatched one of his soldiers. a man
named Bailey, to Alexandria to get
some fresh oysters, giving him instruc-

man started, and no more was seen Of
him for nine days. The Washington
Times prints the story of his return:
After lapse Of nine days Bailey
came into camp leading train Of four
horse wagons. loaded with oysters.
Approaching and respectfully saluting
the amazed captain, Bailey said:
Here are your oysters, captain.
Couldn't find any in Alexandria, so
chartered schooner and made q voy-
age to Fortress Monroe and Norfolk
for them. There are about 200 bushels.
Where do you want 'em?"
Bailey did really make the trip, hired
his men and sold oysters enough In
Georgetown before reporting" to pay
oil expenses and leave him profit of
about 500. The 200 bushels were dt-
vided among the members Of the regi-
mcnt. and Bailey returned to his duty.

scholarly Men nna The pu,p,..


If scholarly men more aud more re
5ect the church as the means by which
they will influence opinion and con-
duct and replace it by educational, ed
ltorIal and administrative agencies, tho
next century may be altogether guided
In Its intellectual decisions and In
those Of Its actions which depend on
intellectual judgments by forces out
xitc the church. Our grandfathers
looked to tho minister for advice not
only upon religious beliefs and moral
practice, but also upon most matters
outside their own direct acquaintance.
The minister prescribed for the educa-
ton Of sons, solved social problems
and acted rs the source and Judge OF
truth In matters Of general knowledge.
Our sons seem likely to regard the
ministry rs body of men fitted to
deal with mems religious welfare, but
less fitted to be generous mentors in
others. The direction Of the people In
other than purely religious activities
may pass wholly out of the hands Of
the church.-Professor Il. L. Thorn

face of the body the finger tips and the
end of the tongue are most sensitive
for instance, burn on TIE fingers is
much more painful than one on the
back would be, while one on the tongue
would be more painful still. Deep
wounds arc not painful, rs rule, save
as regards the surface injury.
