WHERE rs MISS CROFTON 2
Strange Disappearance of Salt Lake
Girl Puzzles Her Many Friends.

The strange disappearance Of Miss
Levenda Crofton, the 1S-year-old
daughter Of Mrs. Nettle Crofton Of 222
South Third East street, is at present
puZzling her mother and also the po-
lice. Not the slightest trace of her has
been found since last Sunday evening
about O'Clock, when she left her home,
presumably to take a walk.
II viii be back in little while,
mamma; | am going for walk" she
said to her widowed mother Late
sunday night, when the young lady
did not return, Mrs. Crofton became
alarmed and instituted search for
her, but without results. She went To
the homes OF several of her daughters
friends, but they had seen nothing of
her. Monday and Tuesday she walked
the streets In the vain hope Of finding
her and yesterday afternoon she called
at the police station and explained the
mysterious affair to the officers. She
gave them good description of the
missing girl and they promised to use
every means in their power to find her.
The young lady, who is described as
being very pretty, with brown eyes and
waVy brown hair, has been attending
the Salt Lake Business college. II was
limited that perhaps the girl had gone
away With some one, but Mrs. Crofton
declared that so far as she knew, her
daughter had not been keeping COM
pany with any young man.
She Is said to be Of excellent charac-
ter, obedient and very considerate OF
her mothers feelings, She had good
home and was well cared for. and why
she should leave in such a manner Is
something Mrs, Crofton cannot under
stand,

NUT COAL.

A striking miner named Plasco has
written the attorney general relating
that on his return recently from SEQ
Held to Clear Creek, he found that his
goods and chattels had been removed
from his house and stored In a hut In
the vicinity, and the house taken pos
session of by the Fuel company. Plas-
co wanted the state to aid him in prose-
cutting the company. The attorney
general says the man has recourse UNI
der the law, but the state can not do
anything for him.
Every man now hired In the coal re-
gons is obliged TO forswear the union,
In fact enter into an iron clad agree
ment to let such things severely alone
forever and for aye-while in the em-
ploy OF the Utah Fuel company. In
view of the peaceabe status at sunny
side, 20 Of the company guards there
have been discharged.

AT CASTLE GATE.
Everything Being Made Ready
For an Early Start.

Special Correspondence,
Castle Gate, Carbon Co., Dec. l5.--
There are over 100 men at present
working at this point preparing the
mine for operation, and all day long
horses attached to drags of lumber
could be seen toiling up the steep EN-
bankment to the mouth OF the mine,
this being necessary on account OF the
absence of motive power, the machin-
cry not yet being started. There are
also number of men employed short
distance inside the mine preparing the
armature consisting OF electric motors,
cables etc. This viii take some two
or three days to complete.
The Italian strikers here are COM
menCing to realize that the company
will not recognize their union and are
weakening somewhat, yet there are
some apparently determined ones
among them who insist that none OF
them will go TO work on the 2lst Inst.
The output both at Winter Quarters
and Clear Creek was increased today
over Monday and Saturdays output by
considerable number of tons, and be-
fore many days 1t Is thought that the
normal output will be reached.
The guardsmen encamped at these
stations continue In good health which
in fact is the condition in general
MEN COMING FROM OREGON.
Here at Castle Gate some of the
miners are under the impression, that
If they apply for work on the 2lst they
will be taken back. and many of them
are holding off until that date. Wheth-
er or not the company win reinstate
them at that time remains to be seen.
1t Is rumored today that shortly some
100 or 200 men will arrive from Oregon
to work in the mines, this rumor was
verified by number of the outside en-
ployes Of the company but could not
be substantiated at the company Of

Peruna:

LlNCOLN'S WAY ROUND.

Many stories of Abraham Lincoln
turn upon his tact. One was told re-
Gently before the Middlesex Club and
repeated in the Boston Herald. Dur
ing the Civil War a Bridgeport boy,
returning from school, was taken by
a bounty agent and hurried to the
front without his parents knowledge.
His father, the late Judge Beardsley,
had sought in vain for his release, and
q delegation Of citizens, who appealed
to the Secretary Of War, met with a
gruff refusal.
In the hope of being able to accom-
plish something, Congressman Brand
egee and Senator Dixon, Of Connectl-
cut, determined to use their influence
10 behalf of the afflicted mother
They visited the Secretary of War
and asked for the boys release. Mr.
Stanton instantly r0ared out an abso-
Lutte refusal. He had decided the cas- e
before. The boy had taken his non-
ey and enlisted. II he should dis
charge all the minors whose mothers
wanted them at home there would
soon be no soldiers at the front.
Leaving the War Office, the Con-
gresham and Senator went to the
White House and appealed to the
President. Mr.. Lincoln heard the
case with sympathetic interest, and
at once wrote on an envelope:
"Let young Beardsley, of Connecti-
cut, minor enlisted by fraud in the
10Th New York regiment, be discharg-
ed and sent Immediately to Washing
ton. A. LINCOLN.
The two men returned to the War
Office and showed this order to the
Secretary. He glanced at it, crump-
led it in his fingers, threw it on the
floor, and said, II won't do it!''
"Shall ! report that to the Presi.
dent?" Congressman Brandegee asked.
"Yes" roared the Secretary. And
you may add that III resign my port
folio before I'll adopt such prece-
dent as thatw
The men reported to the President
everything that had occurred.
"Did Stanton say that after read
ing my order?" asked Mr.. Lincoln.
EYES," Mr.. Brandegee replied, ex-
expecting an explosion.
"Well," Mr.. Lincoln said, with his
slow smile, 81 guess he would do it.
We must find some other way to get
that boy back to his mother"
He took piece of paper and wrote
to the commanding officer of the reg
iment: discharge young Beardsley
and send him to Washington.

er's arms at Bridgeport.-Youth's

The Ostrich In Arizona.

The OStrlCh In Arizona.
The ostrich farm at Phoenix, Ari-
IONA, gathers its harvest of feathers
twice a year. Although the business
was begun only fifteenyears ago, with
a small number OF birds the flock now
numbers one thousand. The annual
weld of each bird is valued at thirty
dollars. the eggs at one dollar and
fifty cents each; and as an ostrich's
life barring fatalities Of battle. aver
ages seventy years, 1t may be readily
seen that the proprietor Of the farm
has a valuable business investment
Granting the necessary means and
| facilities, however, it is not simple
matter to conduct an ostrich farm
successfully. II demands special train
ing and acute observation. The
ostrich requires in his management,
aside from other necessary Qualifica-
tions. a masters hand-a strict hand,
tempered by justice and mercy. Not
that he is at all appreciative of kind
ness. He never becomes thoroughly
domesticated. it is said by those who
know him IN captivity, and is utterly
destitutes of that affection which
even the widest creatures usually
learn to have for their keepers. On
the contrary. he is naughty and stolid-
ly irresponsible to kindness, and so
treacherous when full grown that
even his daily attendants never ap
proach him unless equipped with the
necessary appliances to bring him to
terms when in an ugly or dangerous
mood. At such times he makes
straightforward Kick which would
disable and might easily kill man.
To fight on every possible occasion
is delight to him. These encounters
are accompanied by roarings resem
bling those of a mountain-lion. The
female spectators of the ARRAY stand
from their belligerent mates and hiss
continually.
The male ostrich is not without
.ommendable qualities. He mates
out once and for life. II, as some
times happens in the. course of a
domestic complication, he kicks his
mate to death. he remains true and
constant to her memory, and never
seeks a successor. In the ordinary
phases of donesticity he is attentive
and helpful. He digs the hole in the
ground which is to serve as nest,and
during the process of incubation,
which continues for forty days, he re-
lieves the mother bird in her duties
from early evening till late the follow
ing morning.
Que habit peculiar to the male
ostrich is his constitutional" At
sunrise and just before twilight the
male birds line up in single file and
race around the enclosure at whirl-
wind speed until thoroughly limbered
up. Then, suddenly arranging them
selves in sets, they execute a grotes-
que minuet with ludicrous gravity.
When they are in full plumage, with
the light on their iridescent wings,
the sight is beautiful. despite the an
tics of the performers.-Youth's Com
