what b 1t makes MANI
e Is the battle wild and red.
The will to face the foe;
no stand among the sick and dead
Nor any fear to know.
What is it makes the man
It is the battle for the Right.
when Pride and Fame have gone,
When friendships fade as comes the
night,
Still to fight on, alone.
What Is it makes a man?
It is the Soul in peril placed
When false gods beckon fair,
Still on the stars thine eyes to train
And feel thy Spirit there
What is it makes man?
It is the little mite OF Love
That filters through thy dust.
That makes thy Living worth the
while
And takes thine all in trust.

Register.

Facing often Matches Feathers.

Black picture hats. trimmed with
long ostrich feathers chosen in pale
pastel shades of blue and pink, leaf
green and lilac, are enjoying q great
vogue at the moment. Sometimes
feathers in two or three of these
pastel colors are seen grouped to-
gether on one and the same hat, but
a more surely successful result is OBJ
tanned when the feathers are selected
in one shade. or in several tones of
the same shade.

SHE ooT HER BEAR.
Prodded Him Out With Her Scissors
Then Tomahawked Him.


AS for that grit of women-mean-
ing Indian women-which has beez
celebrated in a well known book.
there is a story in Fur News which
is good evidence of their physical
courage.
A dealer in skins tells of squaw
who was walking along on her snow
shoes one day when her small boy
saw bear curled up under the snow
in his winter sleep. She could not
kill him where she was, so she dashed
pair of scissors to a sapling, prod
ded him out and smashed his head
in with her tomahawk as he emerged.
Il gave her $40 for the skin" writes
the dealer, $50 it was not a bad morn
ing's work. Another ingenious piece
OF hunting that / remember was &C.
complished by an Indian who found
two moose in a yard-that Is, the
snow clearing which the animals make
when the frosts are breaking up and
the snow is too sharp and brittle for
their comfort.
"He crept up and got the female
with his tomahawk. The male was
driven to fury and 1t was unsafe to
approach him. The stroke of a hoof
would have put the Indian out Of
business in close order.
Having no gun, he improvised q
bow and arrow from the trees, stuck
sharp file into the point of the ar
row. made a bowstring with the laces
Of his moccasins and shot the beast
through the heart"

TYPHOID GERMS IN THE WATER.

Hagerstown (Special) - Samples
of water were taken from nine diff
ferent wells at Hancock and sent
to Baltimore for analysis, this step
being taken at the instance of the
County Health Board. AS result
of the analysis, the water from six
of the wells was found to contain
typhoid fever germs, and two 9TH
ers were suspicious. The only well
from which the water taken was
found to be pure was the well of
Edmund p. Cohill.

provement Bids.
TAXPAYERS MAKE COMPLAINT

That contractors must get their fig
ures down to a real business basis WAS
the decision at last nights meeting OF
the board of public works, held for the
purpose Of considering the awarding Of
contracts on several public improves
ments. The bids on two contracts
were rejected, and OF, three others bids
We're accepted and the work ordered
commenced.
An idea of how the figures on the
same work differed is given in the
tenders submitted for the construc-
tin OF the gas proaucer plant ut the In
tercepting sewer station The board
accepted the bid Of Louis Geisler on
this job His bid was ss.425 The 9th

2lS includes one block In the ncighDor-
hood of Sixth South and Seventh East,
and the latter district includes haf
q block on West Temple, between First

innate, $40; No, Eli. Kennedy, S768.A6;

Tho bids for the residence Of the

rejected. Louis Geisler offered 10 con-
struct the house for $3,465.90, and r.
M. Anderson wanted S3,490 for the
same work. New bids will be adver-
tiscd for on this residence.
WORK DONE BUT NOT PAID FOR.
The board decided to ask the city

to cover the cost of repairing street
paving on unguaranteed sections on
Main, West Temple, Commercial ard
other streets. The work has been
done but the council has not provided
money to pay for 1t.
On account of the heavy cost of the
proposed curbing and gutterlng inn

tween Tenth and Twelfth East streets
the board decided not to go ahead with
the work. Bids on this work were OPP

GENEALOGY OF THE JEWS.
Recorder Duncan McAl'istcr Delivers
An Interesting Address.

AT the meeting of the Genealogical
society held yesterday, Duncan NJ Me-
Alster gave y most instructive lecture
on "Genealogy Among the Jews"
The speaker said; Tie jews fully
realized the Importance Of Keeping
family records, and the literature OF
the Old and New Testament has much
of genealogy, The most important ex-
ample, however, Is found in the writ
ings of Luke, third chapter, in WHICH
he states the genealogy of Joseph and
Mary back to father Adam. This has
a deep significance In that it not only
shows the royal lineage OF Christ, but
what may be considered as undeninble
proof of the existence of Deity. \
splendid genealogical table is also given
in the Doctrine and Covenants cstab-
fishing this important fact.
THE great care exercised by the
Jewish people in keeping these genoa
logies is OF great benefit today. Their
interest was for a divine purpose-thc
salvation OF the dead The Lord al
ways placed great value and stress on
keeping records.
"Other people besides the Jews carly
felt the Importance OF genealogical re-
cords. the Japanese take great pride in
the fact that they can TRACE the gene
a!ogy of their emperor back for 1000
years,
Recorder McAllis,er closed by Snow
ing the light on this subject received
through the revelations given to tine
Prophet Joseph Smith

pices Of the auxiliary committee of tiia

Friday OF each month and all Interested
IN this fascinating study are cordially

ANNUAL CHARITY BALL
Affair Planned for Nov. II Promises
To BE More Successful Than
Those OF Former Years.

The st. Marks Hospital Charity as
ISOLATION, as has already been an
nounccd. VIII give its annual ball ono
week from next Tuesday evening,
Nov, II.
Last year at the very night of the
financial panic, the people OF Salt
Lake attended this ball in large mum
beers and made generous contributions,
thereby giving themselves and friends
q delightful evening and furnishing
more than $4,000 for tie relief
of the needy sick. This year the
panic is over, the extensive prepara-
ball promise even d more enjoyable
evening than last year, and the mem
bcrs OF the society believe they will
not be disappointed in their anti
cipation to receive Mt least $4,000 for
their charity work. They are sure that
IL the people of Salt Lake could know
how much suffering was avoided or
relieved by means OF this $4,000 last
year, would think 1t q privilege to
give twice as much this year. that
twice as much suffering might be re-
licvcd.
The story of service to be told is
practically the same that Of one year
ago, only enlarged, as the member
ship and means Of the society have
been enlarged. The women have con.
tinued their careful Investigation of
all cases reported to them, and, when
found worthy, the sick have been

The generosity of the hos
punl and the physicians makes 1t
possible for a large number of cases
to be treated with small amount of
money. An average of about five pa
ticnts a day was cared for last year
at an expense of $2313.00. only a
little more than a dollar day for
each patient.
The women Of the society again
ask the cooperation of the towns
peple in this good work. They ask
to have their attention called to needy
cases by towns people, and when
they have found these cases worthy,

needed help, and they ask with con-
fidence that the response Will be even
