RICH LAND FOR SETTLERS
Uintah Indian Reservation Is to BE Thrown
Open Next March, l#@

The Denver, Northwestern & Pa
ciflc railway, better known as the
"Moffat" Line, crosses Uintah county
with its survey, and follows the Du-
chesne river and Strawberry creek
across the reservation. and will thus
open up this virgin section at once.
and make every acre of tillable land
valuable.
The Uintah railway, which is being
constructed across the Book Cliffs.
from Mack, Colo, a station on the Rio
Grande road. to tap the extensive gill
sonite deposits of the White river
country, will have for It's terminus. at
present, station called Dragon, on
the head of Evacuation creek. Dragon
Is fifty-five miles southeast of vernal.
and tirst-class wagon road will be
constructed between the two points.
The climate of the whole Uintah
basin Is an ideal one. The Uintah
range on the north, with its towering
peaks, tempers the hot winds OF mid
summer, and the nights are delight
fully COOL even in July and August. 1t
Is doubtful II there Is any place in the
world where vegetation grows as lux.
uriantly, and yet the heat is not op
pressive. as Is the case In the Uintah
country.
That Uintah county and the terri
tory now embraced in the Uintah res
ervation is destined to become a rich
and prosperous section, Is beyond
question. With its marvellous produc'
ticn of crops OF all kinds, and great
transcontinental line passing through
II, opening the markets OF the west to
It's produce, II Is bound to become the
great distributing point from which
will be drawn the food supply for
hundreds of miles around.
The immense deposits of gilsonite
and other kindred minerals. to tap
which the Uintah railway Is being
constructed, will form the basis for
great industry, and will create
good home market for the farmers OF
the Uintah basin.
All around the Ashley valley, and on
some parts Of the reservation. are de-
posits of coal that furnishes cheap

which is easily accessible.
The soil and climate Of the Uintah
reservation and the Uintah basin in
general. is especially adapted to the
culture of the sugar beet. Tests made
on beets produced in the Ashley val
ley, show them to be above the aver
age in saccharine, and the yield i'm
mense.
1t Is not known where the land office
will be established for registration.
and will not be until the next session
or congress-: but as Vernal is the
closest available town to the reserva
ton, 1t Is presumed that the land
office will be located at Vernal.

TOWN is LIKE A SHIP.
Huge Anchor of Stone Is Erected Out
side the Walls of Pinq-Yanq.

Ping-Yang is in the shape of ship,
and the huge anchor of stone is erect
ed outside the walls. The Coreans
have a superstition that If well
should be dug within the city the
ship would sink, hence all the water
used is carried for a long distance,
and the water coolie is one Of the
sights of this quaint, interesting old
place. Not so very long ago the water
was carried in picturesque stone jars,
but since that enterprising American
concern, the Standard Oil company,
has introduced it's oil into even the
most obscure localities, the jars have
been abolished, and the places taken
by those ugly modern inventions Of
tin with the addition of wooden
handles.
Ping-Yang is situated on hilltop,
with view for miles of the surround
ing country. At one end is the sacred
grove of Kitza; it is thickly wooded,
and has a temple and several monu-
ments dedicated to his memory. Here
sacrifices continue to be offered to his
spirit The spot is kept so sacred by
both Corean and Chinese that during
the Chino-Japanese- war in 1894 the
defeat Of the former is said to have
been due to the fact that they allowed
no tree to be felled on this ground,
thus allowing the Japanese to effect
an entrance unperceived. - Helen

THEIR SALARIES ARE SMALL.
Insignificant Sums Paid to Two
Famous Men.

IL may be some comfort to laboring
men to know that the salary of the
poet laureate Of England Is $500

in. or course, this represents only a
fractional part Of what Mr.. Alfred
Austin really earns; still 1t Is all that
he gets for being poet laureate to the
English speaking race. This salary
Is without any prospect of a raise.
although 1t was increased to Its pres
ent munificent proportions when Lord
Tennyson died. Some time before his
death 1t was decided to increase his
salary to that amount, but the gov
eminent did not decide till after his
death. Thus the present poet laure-
ate came In for the raise intended for
Lord Tennyson.
Even this small sum Is more than
the official salary of the bishop of
Winchester, In his capacity of minis
ter to the chapel royal. He receives
s35 per annum. 1t is an Office which
requires his presence at Windsor sew
eral times each year and the total
railway fares from Winchester amount
to about five times the amount of his
salary. The vice consuls of the Sec
ond class towns In Russia are also
badly paid. Their salaries vary from
s25 to $3.50, but twothirds of them
get $25.

her wonder changed to exultation, as
she realized that it was not chance

The scarlet cloaks drew together in

came out of her trance to catch the
royal mantle.

The seriousness which had dark

vanished off 1t as breath-mist off a
mirror. SIS it only your Englishman?
he asked, between a laugh and a
frown.
She grudged the time the words

He did not seem bitten by her haste,

Standing there, watching the young

that there was not room between her
heart-beats for her breathing. How
soon would he look up and know her?
How would his face change when he
did? Presently it occurred to her to
suspect that he had already recog-

of the shock being over, she found

CAPTER xVlll-Continusd.

In the longest of the oval spaces a
group of maidens and warriors were
gathered to watch the wonderful flower
faced woman play at quoits under the
instruction of noble tutor. Sebert
paid her the tribute of quickly drawn
breath, even as he took his eyes from
her to scan the butterfly pages who
ran to and fro, recovering the gilded
rings. In all the picture there was but
one figure crowned with such raven
locks as had distinguished Fridtjof
the Bold, and that figure belonged to a
girl standing directly opposite by the
messy curb Of the old WELL which,
guarded by circle of carefully tend
ed trees, rose like an altar in the
center of the Enclosure.
Something about her, while it was
entirely strange, was yet so absurdly
familiar. Now she looked up to an
swer some testing words, and the man
in the passage saw her smile and
shake back her clustering curls with
a gesture so familiar :. so familiar
Rothgar's gloating eyes detected
light breaking in his victims face,
incredulity, amaZement, considerations
and he began to jeer under his breath.
"A great joy is this that you see your
Fridtjof again! Why do you not go in
boldly and rescue him? Does he not
look to be in need Of your help?" To
stifle his laughter, he muf1led his head
in his cloak and leaned, shaking,

Flushing a deeper and deeper red,
the Lord of Ivarsdale stared at the
smiling maiden. Just So a hundred
times, she had lifted her sparkling face

where had been his eyes? Turning,
he forced laugh between his teeth.
Il do not deny you the right to be
amused. You speak truly that she

you no longer"
Rothgar leaped forward to bar the
passage, and the mantle that fell from
