One of the Elders laborlng in the
Manti Temple writes:
"In an early day when President
Young and party were making the
location of a settlement here, Presi-
dent Heber C. Kimball prophecied
that the day would come when Tenn
pie would be built on this hill. Some
disbelieved and doubted the possibil.
ity Of even making settlement here.
Brother Kimball said, "Well it will
be SO, and more than that, the rock
will be quarried from that hill to
build it with, and some OF the stone
from that quarry will be taken to
help complete the Salt Lake Temple. ,
On July 2Sth, 1871, two large stones,
weighing respectively $500 and 5000
pounds, were taken from Manti stone
quarry, hauled by team to York, the

that goods would be sold as cheap on
the streets of Salt Lake City as they
were sold In New York City. After
making this prophecy, which was
uttered at time when the Mormon
people were 1000 miles from civiliza-
ton, and at time when the people
were in need of clothing and the
necessities Of life, ne turned to Prest.
Young, who was sitting On the plat
form Of the old Bowery In Salt Lake
City, and said: well, Brother Brig
ham, ! have done it now" Never
mind, Brother Kimball, let 1t CO."
1t was but a short time after this
prophecy was made that the gold ex-
element broke out in California, and
large trains Of wagons loaded 10 the
bows reached Salt Lake City from the
East, but could continue no farther.
Many traded for ponies their wagons,
oxen, goods. ETC., and carried with
them only the necessities that could
be packed upon animals.
The subject Of prophecy is conclud.

You will not always have them, for

whom he had been conversing on the

Dear Brother:--
Agreeable with your wishes / send

words OF Heber c. Kimball and some
of his prophecies.
AS a beginning ] copy tribute
from the pen Of President George Q.
Cannon.
"Heber Chase Kimball was one of
the greatest men of this age. He was
a man Of commanding presence, with
eyes so keen as to almost pierce one
through, and before which the guilty
Involuntary Quailed. He possessed
such wonderful control over the pas
sions OF men, combined with such wis.,
dom and diplomacy, that the Prophet
Joseph Smith called him "the peace
maker"
mo man," says Brother Cannon,
"Joseph Smith excepted, who has be.
longed to the Church in this genera
tion, ever possessed the gift Of proph-
ecy to a greater degree than Brother
Kimball. Although not at all preten-
tious, he was somewhat celebrated
among his acQuaintances for his
prophetic inspiration. Scores of pre-
dictions were made by him and liter
ally fulfilled"
| PROPHECY.
Elder John Nicholson gives brief
outline of a discourse, delivered by
the late Heber c. Kimball, in 1857, in
the old Tabernacle.
This is the prophetic part of it:
president Kimball opened by stat
ing that there were many within hear
ing who had often wished that they
had been associated with the Prophet
Joseph. You imagine said he, that
you would have stood by him when
persecution ragged and he was assailed
by foes within and without. You
would have defended him and been
true to him in the midst OF every
trial. You think you would have
been delighted to have shown your
integrity in the days Of mobs and
traitors.
Let me say to you, that many Of
you will see the time when you will
have all the trouble, trial and perse-
cution that you can stand, and plenty
of opportunities TO show that you are
true to God and his work. This
Church has before 1t many close
places through which 1t will have to
pass before the work Of God Is crowned
with victory. TO meet the difficulties
that are coming, it will be necessary

CHARLES {. EVANS
UNIQUE STAGE CAREER

Charles Il. Evans. the William Henry
Spangle Of 1.-THE Shotgun" cast cele-
brated q unique anniversary recently
II was the twentieth anniversary OF the
opening Of "A Parlor Match in Asbury
Park, n. j.
This piece, which Mr., Evans stlll re-
CARDS as the best comedy ever writ
ten, was brought out back In 1884, aud
Mr. Evans played the part Of !. Nc
Corker $500 times during the twelve
years II was being produced, During
all this time he never missed single
performance.
Mr.. Evans has had an exceedingly
unique stage career. He has been play
ing since 1869 and yet has assumed
comparatively few charactera His
first appearance was made IN Rochester
N. Y, IN Frank Mayo's production Of
"The Streets Of New York" lie APP
peared as Bob, the bootblack. Perhaps
many among even the old time theater
goers have forgotten that Mr. Evans Is
graduate OF mlnstrelsy
After his connection with Mr.. Mayo
he went on the variety and minstrel
stage for ten years. About 1889 the or
ganization known as Niles and Evans
consolidated with Bryant and Hoey and
brought forward a variety company
which produced among other things a
farce called "The Book Agent" This
piece was IN reality the foundation for
"A Paror Match"
The late Charles Hoyt was commits
Stoned 10 rewrlte Il and expand Il into
three acts, and II was through this We
hicle that Mr., Evans and "Old Hoss'
Hoey achieved their first big success.
After playing the comedy for ten con-
secutive years It was abandoned and
then revived for another run OF two
years.
More recently Mr. Evans has appear
ed IN Naughty Anthony" and There
and Back He was a theatrical man
aeer In New York for seven years
A peculiar coincidence Of this career
is that he secured his first engagement
with Frank Mayo when he was THU
teen years OF age and years later was
instrumental IN starring Mr., Mayo In
'Puddn'head Wilson"
