An unexpected canoe entering a

as this lake must needs awaken the
keenest surprise, and especially in the
case of party situated as this one
was. Ray, who had just returned from
a berry-picking trip over at the blow
down." and Old Cy, carrying his sug-
gestive rifle, were at the landing some
time before this canoe reached it,
while Angie and Chip waited almost
breathlessly on the cabin piazza. A
stout, bare-headed Indian, clad in
white mans raiment, was padding.
He glanced at the two awaiting him
at the landing, with big black, emo
tionless eyes, and then up to the
cabin.
AS his canoe now grated on the
sandy beach close by, he laid aside his
paddle, stepped forward and out, drew
his craft up, and folding his arms
glanced at Old Cy again, as if waiting
for a welcome. None was needed
however, for on the instant, almost,
came an exclamation of joy from
Chip, and with "Hullo, Poppy To
mah," she was down the bank, with
both her hands in his.

COULD USE THE ROAD.
Irish Soldiers Great Idea When Cover
Was Badly Needed.

The following colloquy Is said to
have actually occurred during one Of
the earlier battles in the Philippines:
A detachment of American infantry,
under orders to support a section of
Capt. Reillys battery, were halted for
quite a while on perfectly fiat mill
tary road in full view and fine range
of the Filipino trenches. OF course, to
lie fat on the road was the only avail
able use of cover"
In this detachment was an Irishman
who had served his time with the col
ors in the British arnv before he en-
listed with Uncle Sam. AS a recruit
he had been very prone to tell how the
British soldiers did everything. AS
result he was necessarily piled with
questions as to his experiences. While
the bullets were 'plopping" down the
road and kicking up the gravel, a
young Yankee suddenly asked:
Say, Mike, what do the British SOL
diers do with their heads in a place
like this?"
Quick as a flash came the retort:
"A British soldier has no head,
SORT"
After full two-minute pause, Mike
continued:
However, be that as it may, wish
/ could pick up this d road and
stan it on edge feminist mel"

Couldn't DISCHARGE HIM.

When the jury had filed in for at
least the fourth time, with no sign of
coming to an agreement in the bribery
case, the disguised judge rose up and
said: 81 discharge this jury"
At this, one sensitive talesman,
stung to the quick by this abrupt and
ill-sounding decision, obstinately faced
the Judge.
You can't discharge me, judge!" he
retorted.
"Wby not?" asked the astonished
judge.
Because" announced the talesman,
pointing to the defendants lawyer,
I'm being paid by that man there."-

No further notice was taken of
Rays adventure. The sight of deer
everywhere about was ten-times
daily occurrence. and Old Cy's dismis-
sal of the matter ended it.
His thoughts, however, were a diff
ferent matter. Full we'll he knew il

yet, came.
Old Cy. quick to see that he was
friend, now advanced.
Were glad to see we, he said. AN
as we seem to be friend o the gals,
wen make We welcome"
The Indian bowed low, and How
do" like a grunt, was his answer. A
calm, slow, motionless type of a now
almost extinct race, as he seemed to
be, he would utter no word or move
a step farther until invited But now,
led by Chip, he advanced up the path.
IT'S Tomah, old Poppy Tomah," she
said with pride, as Angie rose to meet
them, land he's the only body who
was ever good to me-"

swer with a stately bow.
Not word of greeting for Chip or
of surprise at finding her here-only
the eagle glance, accustomed to bright
sunlight or to following the fight of
bird far out of white mans vision.
1--WE shall have supper soon" Angie
added, uncertain what to say to this
impassive man, and some for you"
II was a def speech, for Angie, ac-
customed to take in every detail of a

to the cut of his clothing, as all wom-
en- will, had ere now absorbed the APP
pearance of this swarthy redskin, and
was not quite sure whether TO invite
him to share their table or cay moth
ing.
But the Indian solved his own prob
lem, for spying the outdoor fire to
which Old Cy now retreated, he bowed
again and strobe away toward it.
Me cook here?" he said to Old Cy.
With an "Of course, an you're well
come to-" the question was settled.
Chip soon drew near, and now for
the first time the Indians speech
seemed to return, and while Old Cy
busted himself about the cooking,
these two began to visit.
Chip, as might be expected, did
most of the talking, asked questions
as to Tins place. when he was there,
and what they said about her running
away, in rapid succession. Her own
adventures and how she came here
soon followed and it was not long be-
fore he knew all that was to be
known about her.
His replies were blunt and brief
after the manner Of such. Now and
then an expressive nod or grunt filled
in the place of an ordinary answer
He knew but little about the recent
happenings at Tins place, as he had
stayed there only one night since
Chip had departed with her father
as he was told. He had been away
in the woods, looking for places to
set traps later, and had no idea Chip
was here.
AS to Pete's movements, he was
equally in the dark, and when Chip
told him what her friends here sus
pected he merely grunted AS he
seemed to wish to do his own cooking,
Old Cy, having completed his task, of
fered him a partridge and a couple of
trout fresh from the icehouse, also
pork and potatoes, and left him to
care for himself
He became more sociable later, and
when supper was over and the rest
had, as usual, gathered on the piazza
Of the new cabin, he joined them.
And now came a recital from Ray
of far more interest to these people
than they suspected.
II saw bear over back of the ridge
this afternoon" he said, cor / don't
know but it was a wildcat. I'd just
filled my pail with berries, when way
up, close to the rocks, l saw some
thing moving. l crouched down
back of bush, thinking it might be
a bear, and if it was, I'd get chance
to see it nearer. | could only see the

its vast somber solitude seemed ON
nous.
Only the hermit, with his moonlike
eyes and impassive' ways, showed no
sign of trouble. What this half-breed
wanted, other than food, he seemed
not to understand; and while he
helped about the camp work and fol-
lowed Old Cy like dog, he was of
no other aid.
One, two, three days of watchful
guard and evenings when even Old
Cy's cheerful philosophy or Rays
banjo failed to dispel the gloom, and
then, just as the sun was setting once
again, canoe with one occupant was
seen to enter the lake and head for
the landing.

Exhibit of Consolidated Wagon
and Machine Company At
tracts the People.

Among the busiest sections of Salt
Lake City is State street, especially
between First and Second South. on
the west side Of the thoroughfare. The
Orpheum theater is responsible in a
measure for the large crowds there, as
eieven performances usually arc given
at that amuseemnt place each week,
but the premises Of the Consolidated
Wagon and Machine company, from a
business standpoint, are second to mono
other IN the city in the matter of
attracting crowds
Ihls fact is particularly true this
week. on account of the exhibition for
.ne conference visitors that has been
arranged by the company. Every de-
tail has been arranged that is neces-
sary to successful show of vehicles.
The company is exhibiting, besides
its large and complete line Of farming
machinery and vehicles, full line Of
handsome automobiles, both for
pleasure and business uses. The most
prominent Of the cars is the air-cooled
gasoline Knox truck, having a carrying
capacity Of 5000 pounds. This machine

conditions for the first three months
of the present year had exceeded by
far the business for that period of

In comparing the business now with
what it was when Grant, Odell e. Co.
began business where the Consolidated
Wagon and Machine company now is
situated. especially for the winter of
1884, his attention was directed TO
a statement from the Farm Implement

"In 1883 Mr.. Odell and others
formed the firm of Grant, Odell e. Co.
at Salt Lake City for the purpose Of
handling agricultural implements,
wagons and carriages. The implement
trade was Mt first devoted largely TO
harvesting machinery. but other lines
were gradually added, In 1886 the
under the name of the Cooperative
Wagon and Machine company, Mr..
Odell being chosen assistant manager.
Five years later he was given full
charge of the business as general
manager In 1902 this concern was
merged with the Consolidated lmple"
meut company of Salt Lake City nm
der the name of the Consolidated
Wagon and Machine company, Besides
the parent house al Salt Lake City,
the company operates seven branche
houses and twenty-five stores through
out Utah and Idaho, The success of
the business is an eloquent tribute to
Mr., Odell S executive ability.
