After two years of study under the
greatest of the European masters. Miss
Sybella White Clayton made her first
public appearance in Salt Lake City last
night in the Salt Lake theatre. large
audience was delighted by her mastery
of the piano. Miss Clayton possesses tai
ent that does not fall far short of genius.
Her style is fluent. easy. sure. She
played her program throughout without
notes a feat of memory in itself remark
able. And through every number she
caught the finest expression, brought out
the tone shadings and demonstrated 10
the satisfaction of every listener that her
years of study have not been in vain.
Every number on the program was splen-
didly done but particularly is this true
of the difficult Chopin PolOnaise, opus
g. Exceptionally well done. too, was the
Scriabine nOcturae for the left hand
alone. At the conclusion of the recital
the applause was so long-continued that
Miss Clayton gave the only encore of the
evening, French gavOtte. which she
PLAYED charmingly. Frequently during the
concert the player was the recipient of
splendid floral tributes and before she
finished the stage looked like a garden
filled with beautiful flowers.

face through the honeysucNe branches in
order to look after him.
But, without a backward glance, Diego
turned Juan's head and dashed down the
drive and out of the open gate and almost

the road.
Mr.; Heath seized Juan's bride and said,
sternly:

tang, with feet scarcely touching the ground,
carried him swiftly onward.
The carriage had the start however, and
it seemed hardly possible that Diego. could
overtake it in time. notwithstanding that at
every leap his willing steed lessened the dis
lance between them.
The rush of the approaching train was in
his ears and the tracks crossing the road In
full sight, when Diego arose in his saddle,
and, with swift movement. sent his lasso
kissing through the air.
AT it looped itself over the flying horses
head. Juan wheeled about and planted his
noofs firmly on the ground.
The captured runaway sank on its knees
within one foot of the track as the engine
Numbered by.
Mr.. Heath, shaken and bewildered stagger-
ed from the carriage, while Diego dismounted
and loosened the moose from the fallen horses
neck, Mildred scrambled from the vehicle and
ran to him with outstretched arms.
"Oh," she cried. hreathlessly, pointing to
the lasso, ut was that which stopped us!
Now see it is of some use"
When Diego had helped to raise the fallen
horse. he turned to his uncle and said,
Il was obliged to use it once more and
'My boy" replied Mr.. Heath, pressing both

daughter and myself from dreadful DEATH

He turned and followed his uncle without a
word.
On their way home they met the coachman
coming to meet them. He had been stunned
and bruised but otherwise unhurt.
From that day Diego never had any cause
To complain of the treatment he received.
His aunt never forgot for moment that, but
for him, she would have lost all that made
life dear TO her.
Mr.. Heath and Diego soon became not only
friends but companions, and, let me whisper
this in your ear, one day Mr.. Heath was
said to have been seen taking lessons from
Diego in handling that barbarous implement,

The sun was sinking in the west when at
last Diego aroused himself. AS he stood up,
Juan came and thrust his nose into is mas
ter's hand.
"And they hate you. too" said the boy,
stroking the mustangs glossy head ."and
this is barbarous implement, which must
never use again." he continued as he ad-
dle "and he as good as said we were all
savages."
As Diego finished the catalogue of his
wrongs he mounted his horse and glanced
around.
He could perceive that the wide, white
ran almost parallel with the railway until
about half mile beyond, where it crossed
the track at a right angle.
Diego had just noticed that some cows
were quietly walking along the rails, when a
piercing whistle from an approaching loco
motive made Juan bound forward. A touch
of his masters hand quoted him. The cattle
numbered off Of the track barely in time to
escape the oncoming train.

direction of his unole's house as he repeated,
angrily. mo, will never go baekl"
All at once, at the very extremity Of the
road, cloud of dust arose, and came rolling
rapidly toward him. Suddenly it parted, and
out OF 1t appeared to burst maddened horse,
the vehicle behind it rocking frantically from
side 10 side.
He saw the driver, who was yainly striving
to control the animal, tossed like feather
from his seat into the road, where he lay mo
tionless. and now Diegois heart began to
throb painfully, for even at that distance he
had recognized IN the panic stricken animal
