One hundred and slxty-four is the
present enrolment, several students
having entered on Tuesday of this
week. Communication has been
had with others also, who will Join
US later. Better late than not at all.
For the benefit of those missionary
students who expect calls to German
speaking countries, Principal Haag
has organized a special German con
versation and reading class. Other
students have joined it, however,
and the class now numbers twenty
two.
The missionary class has been
united with the Second year high
school class in morning theology
recitation. The "Apostollc Age"
is now receiving attention.
On Wednesday morning the BIZ
weekly priesthood meeting was held
as usual, and besides a review of the
previous lesson by Instructor Welk-
er, the history of the Aaronic
Priesthood was discussed, also the
ancient use of the Trim and Thum-
MIN. The session was a very in
teresting one.
A copy Of the recently published
"Book of Mormon Concordance, y
mastery work of 85l pages, by
Geo. Reynolds, has just been re-
ceived for use in our library. This
will greatly facilitate Book OF Nor
mon study, and will be extensively
used.
Instructor Richards returned on
Monday from Salt Lake, where she
spent the Christmas vacation.
The second year preparatory class
is studying the Reformation in
Theology, and IN Arithmetic, Do
nestle and Foreign Exchange.
School was resumed on Tuesday
of this week, and, although there
was more or less of sleepiness on
the first day, due to the celebration
of New Y ears Day on Monday, yet
all are wide awake now, and are at
lacking the work with business-like
air III all departments.

agent of prosperity to the deserving poor, jack

A knock sounded upon the door, and the Colonel
started; for it must be admitted that the ColonelS
mind was not entirely at peace. He had had
vistors-severa1 of them. Some had been vindc-
tive, some passivey resigned, others demonstra-
tive, and few actually violent. All had referred
with rhetorical force to certain of money
they had paid the Count in consideration of his
procuring for them their shares of fabulous for
tunes bequeathed by foreign nobemen, de-
ceased.
The Colonel, therefore, not overly agile in
answering the present summons In fact, he had
scarcely traversed than half the width of the
room when the door suddenly burst open and
there entered what to the Coloners excited vision
appeared to be animated fortifcaton, equipped
with siegeguns and bedecked with glistening cutlery
of prodgious length and breadth of blade. A
second glance, however, convinced the Colonel that

remarked BE you the pussonal representative

The Colonel replied in naughty accents that he:

Again the Colonel pinched himself to dispel the
doubt or his WakefulncSS. / ne experiment appar-
entity treasured him; but directly horrible sus-
picion seemed to haunt him and he turned an
anxious eye upon the Count. From your knowl-
edge of humanity, sub, he asked, from your keen
observance of the actions of men upon all occasions
and under various conditions, would you con-
sidah sub, that at this particular moment All

The Colonel, while speaking had allowed his
eyes to drop, and when he finished he raised his
head slowly until he perceived the Counts arm
stretched toward him across the table. Then he
rose to his feet and taking the profIered hand in
both of his he bowed courteously. "Ah am your
