A Life Of Solf.Abneg.ttou.

The Rev. Dr.. Josiah Strong draws
this picture of the blessedness OF self
sacrifice. He says: 1.-The life of self
abnegatiOn does not attract yeu. A.
cathedral window seen from without
is dull and meaningless. But enter.
and the light of Heaven, streaming
through it, glorifies it with every
beauty of form and color. Conseera-
ton to God for service may seem dulf
enough when seen from without; but
enter into that experience. and the.
light of the divine love, streaming
through it, shall glorify your life with
beauty and blessedness which are
Heavens own"

THE OLD BARN.

In doors stood wide and free to all;
Each horse neighed welcome from his stall.
When Sum ner showers drove US there
TO linger until skies grew fair.
4 magic realm twas to us then ;,
Whose dark enchanter was old Ben! -
Like chandeliers swung overhead,
The wasp's nest of cells was spread,
And on some rafter, still and fat.
With wings outstretched, repOsed the bat,
While pigeons futtered in and out,
viewing our presence there with doubt.
All, dear old barn you stored away :
Far more than oats and corn and hay:
Bpneath YOUR rafters what hoard
Of shining dreams our bosoms stored;
And still from meath your shadows hoar
We take bright ingots from that store,

LOST GOLD NINE
IN THE RESERVATION.

There is said to be a gold mine of
untold wealth in the Uintah reserya-
ton which has been lost for years,
the many searches for the hidden
bonanza having proven futile.
The Salt Lake Herald says that a
mining man now comes TO the front
who says he knows where the fam
GUS mine is located.
F. II. Hathenbruck, the mining
man who has been in the reserya-
tion for years prospecting and who
has organized a company to operate
under a lease of mineral lands OBJ
tanned from the Indians and to de
veIop mining property he is entitled
to select under this lease, is now on
the reservation.
Mr.. Hathenbruck claims that he
knows Cand since the death of Caleb
Rhodes at Price few months ago, is
the only man who lnows) the loca-
tion of this mine This mine is in
the reservation. if It is anywhere.
There are people who claim the mine
is a myth, but Mr.. Hathenbruck is
not one Of them, and he mas worked
perslstently for years to obtain the
privilege from the government to op-
en- il up. There are many old timers
in Utah. who believe in the mine as
firmly as Mr.. Hathenbruck, although
they do not claim to know where it
is: but they claim that the father of
the late Caleb Rhodes discovered IL
before the land was set apart as an
Indian reservation. That was in the
early days of Utah. He took some of
the gold to President Young, and was
advised not to open il up, as the pol
lev of President Young. as is well
known. was not to encourage min
ing. but agriculture and the build
ing up of the territory on tlrmer
basis than is generally done by a
mining community in new country.
Mr.. Rhodes. so It is reported by
the old-timers. went to this mine
and dug out gold for himself and
others. till the country was given TO
the Indians as a reservation. Then
they made It dangerous for him and
his sons to go there and nothing was
done in the way of opening it up or
in obtaining gold from there tnl

Hathenbruck and Caleb Rhodes be

BURGLARS ENTER STORE

IRON bars. The thieves pried two OF
the bars of the lower part of one of
the windows and pushing back the

The safe stands on the eastern
side of the store from the front en-
trance. Mr.. Stoddard does not lock
the safe at night but usually takes
an the money out of the safe before
closing. However on last night he
unintentially left in the safe one

EVERYBODY WILL GAIN
BY AMENDED PROCLAMATION.

Regarding the change made in the
provision of the presidents procla-
/ nation regarding the number of en-
tries TO be made each day on the res
/ ervation. General Land Commission
Ct Richards has given out the fol
lowing statement:
Al the time the presidents proc
lamation was issued prescribing the
manner in which the tTintah Indian
reservation should be opened to en-
try, the exact area of the land which
was TO be opened to entry was NOT
known, because all of the allotmerrts
ana reservations had not been made
ana for the reason it was stated in
the proclamation that all the allot-
ted lands in said reservation. except
ing such as have at that time been
reserved for military forestry. and
and other purposes, and such min
eral lands as may have been disposed
of under existing laws. will. ON and
after the 2Sth day OF August, 1905.
in the manner hereinafter prescrib-
ed, and not otherwise, be open to
entry, settlement, and disposition un-
der the general provisions of the
homestead and townsite laws of the
United States
As the exact area was not known.
ii was not possible at the time to
fix the number of entris per day nee
essary to be made during the sixty
days following the opening, and this
number was tentatively fixed at fifty
per day in the proclamation. All
reservations and allotments having
now been made. il is asCertaiued
that there will be sufficient land in
the reservation open to entry to per
nit Ill entries per day for the fifty
nT ~ Gf fltlar
period during which entries can only
be made in conformity with the reg
istration and the drawing The
proclamation of July IA, was there
fore amended by Il supplementary
proclamation of the president dat
ed Aug. ,, 1905, providing for III
entries per day during the sixty
day period. This will be of advan-
tage to the entrymen, because what
ever the number of desirable claims
there may be they can be entered and
settled upon in less than one-half of
the time provided for in the first
proclamation. and by the same peo-
pie who would have taken them were
but fifty entries per day allowed, be
sides giving them more time to pre-
pare for the winter.
1.-The registration has progressed
sufficiently to guarantee the success
of the opening. At the end of five
days the registrations are more than
double the number of possible en-
tries, so that there are two applica-
tions to every quarter section of
land. 1t is expected that the regis
tration during the remaining six
days will at least equal TO that al
ready made. 1t was because of the
probability of there being more ap-
plicants for the land in the reserva-
tion than could be accommodated,
and TO prevent strife and violence,
that this plan of arranging the order
in which entries could be made was

TWO WOMEN CAUGHT
SHOPLIFTING AT FASHION.

Last night two women, whose
names are withheld, entered the
Fashion store. evidently for no hon
orable purposes. They were stand
ing near the large rack which holds
the parasols and umbrellas The
clerks were all pretty busy but one
of them happened TO notice the wom-
en- and saw one Of them take ali Um
breIla out of the rack and place an
old one which she carried in its
place Turning around she saw that
the clerk was looking at her and she
lost no time in replacing the new um-
brella in its place and taking her old
one.
The clerk did not know whether
the other woman, who had an UNI
brella in her hand. had made a sim
ilar exchange or not. The two wom-
en- then hurried out OF the store and
started across the street toward the
Grand Valley National bank. They
were watched by some of the Fash
ion people and one of them raised
an umbrella and she and her com
panion proceeded to examine it,
proving that they still had a stolen
umbrella in their possession. Night
Marshal Girls O'Neil passed just then
and MIR ShellenberEer. proprietor of
the Fashion sent him after the wom-
en-. He arrested them and brought
them back to the store. The umbrel-
la was returned, the second woman
having substituted her umbrella for
a new one as her companion had
done.
The two women begged to be re
leased. pleading long and earnestly
and finally Mr.. ShellenberEer, think
ing that they had been taught a les
son and believing that the disgrace
arrest and exposure would
overbalance the weight of the offense
he asked Night Marshal O'Nen to
let the two women go. They were
released with a warning and were
only too happy to get out of the GUS
tody of the officers
The women were well dressed and
are well known in this county.

The cases of James Butler. of this city, and
