adopted the term "eiectrics" to denote
substances which. like amber, became
attractive when rubbed but they had
used no name for the unseen itself.
The first occurrence OF the substan.

OF recently published portrait of
Arthur Hallam, immortalized by Ten.

says: 1T dates from the prephoto-
graphic days, Of course. but It does
not show signs OF the fiattery so com.

face that bore those azure orbits
heavenly wise, those ethereal eyes.
is pictured as rather gloomy. rather
lowering. that of somewhat Seavy
youth. This head was Tennyson's
hostage TO heaven throughout the
stress of philosophic doubt, and was
so half a century later, when the aged
poet died in the faith that his boy

SONGS That Have Won Favor.

The intensely popular song is not
the only one which it is very profta
BILE to write. Among the most sue.
cessful of better.class songs may be
mentioned "Violets" and "Oh Dry
Those Tears" The manuscript of the
former was offered to and rejected
by nearly all the principal publishers
n London before II was eventually
1ccepted and printed. 1t speedily won
, way to favor, and its sale has been

Much Ado About Nothing.

EDITOR REPUBLICAN:-Dea Sir:
In smoothing over the Baird subject
"the only" tries to imply that pas
sengers coming from. Cache Junction
by stage are usually required to yet
out and walk part of the way. We
wish IL thoroughly understood that
this has never been the case, and we
invite our friends at 1.-The only" to let
us know OF any such cases. Another
awkard clause made by, the "blunder-
ers" Is that the stages from the juno.
tion do not make proper time. We
here make the assertion that our
teams make as good time as the Log
an hacks do, and II you don't think so
Just send one OF your best over and
we will give them chase through
the mud. IL Logan would educate
her people as to train time on the
o. S. l.. there would not be so many
passengers waiting at Cache Junction.
We ask our competing town across
the valley to try this advice and stop
whstling and blowing at Cache juno
ton. Logan hasn't any room to talk
and we see freight train a little
oftener than they do. We say in con-
clusion that we have better railroad
service than Logan and just as good
stage service, so don't look here for
weak points Please print this, as it
expresses the feelings Of number Of
our most prominent citizens.
Respectfully,
J. II. BARKER, JR.
