Theoretically it is great thing to give to a multi

selves together IN some important work without

disrepute largely through the evil courses of the
managers perhaps a small minority of them, for
undoubtedly the affairs of many corporations have
been conducted with a scrupuous regard for public
obligations and for the rights of the smallest and
most obscure stockholder. Extreme remedies have
been proposed, extending even to a species of
nihilism which would destroy any human instru-
mentality which did not work perfectly. even govern
ment itself
The corporation, however, rightly conducted
is Of great benefit to society. 1t has been
compared to the walled town of the middle ages
into which scattered individuals whom the great
barons would have reduced to subsection fled, and

Making a Shy Girl Talk.

The girl who knows herself to be
tongue-tied, though she regrets it, need
not despair of popularity. Nobody is
socially more disagreeable and more
dreaded than woman who talks too
much, monopolizing the conversation
and giving no one else a chance to
speak. People fly from this overgifted
and aggressive talker. A good chatter
box is equally disliked. A good listener
is always sure of appreciation. If you
can but master the fine art of listening
to each person with an air of deep in
terest, just as if there were nobody
else at the moment in the wide world,
and as if your greatest wish were to
understand what the other is trying to
tell you, you will have the effect of talk
ing Well All that is really necessary
is not to let your attention wander, and
at the right moment, in the right place,
make some brief rejoinder in affirma-
ton. You need never fear that you
will be thought too silent if you listen
well and say yes or no at proper inter-
walls. \ good listener is never a bore.
while a great talker frequently gains
that unhappy distinction. Girls are
sometimes tOngue-tied because Of in

because he thought it vas the thing to

Pat was very tlocile that night, but

workings sounds through the air. Down
on TIE river the ships are floating on the
blcod-stained waters, and all their masts
stand up like forest of bare trees against
the clear sky. And the river sweeps on red
and angry-looking under the sunset, with
the rank grass and vegetation on its shelly

among the wet stones, and then a vagrant
dog polking about amid some garbage
bowls dismally. What is that black speck
on the crimson waters? The trunk of a

face and tangled auburn hair; 1t is float

People are passing to and fro on the
bridge, the clock strikes in the town hall,
and the dead body drifts slowly down the
red stream far into the shadows of the
coming highlander the bridge, across
which the crowd is hurrying, bent on
pleasure and business, past the tall ware
houses where rich merchants are count
ing their gains, under the shadow of the
big steamers with their tall masts and
smoky tunnels. Now it is caught in the
reeds at the side of the stream; no, the
current carries it out again, and so down
the foul river, with the hum of the city
on each side and the red sky above, drifts
the dead body on its way to the sea. The

descends, and under the cold starlight
cold and cruel as his own nature-that
which was once CASTOR Vandeloup floats

INDlcTs FOR LAND FRAUDS.
Federal Grand Jury at Salt Lake
City Returns Many True Bills.

Federal Grand Jury at Salt Lake
City Returns Many True Bills.
The federal grand jury at Salt Lake
City returned indictments before United
States Judge Marshall against the Utah
Fuel Company, its officers and agents,
charging them with conspiracy to defraud
the government. Indictments were also
returned against the Oregon Short Line
and other railroads. with their officials,
charging them with discriminating among
shippers.
The report was only partial one of a
jury which will again take up its work in
January. 1t is said by number of per-
sons acquainted with the situation that
this is only the beginning to unearth
one of the most gigantic systems of de-
frauding the government that has ever
been encountered. The investigation, it
is said. VIII involve some of the men high
in politics and some of the most promi-
nent men of the State.
The scheme by which the Fuel Com
pany is said to have attempted to get
the coal land mentioned in the indict-
ments was by hiring dummies" who
received $50 for their services SO per
diem for going to and from the property
and travelling expenses. These men pre-
tended to borrow money to pay off the
claims, the money having been placed in
the hands of loan agents of the fuel COM
pany. An agent preceded them to the
coal fields and unearthed the coal On
returning the company attorney made
out their papers and received $50 from
them for his services. Later an agent
purchased the property Of the dummies"
and held it in trust for the fuel COM
pany
