Town of Tooele.
That there will be an immense
amount of Salt Lake City capital in
vested in Tooele City, the new townsite
near the site of the International
Smelling Refining companys pro-
posed smelter. is evident from the
ready manner in which money is being
advanced by local inst tutions. Among
other investments will be the erection
by the Salt Lake Security & Trust
company of a $4,000 hotel in the center
of the city and the erection of a large

warrant enlargement of the building.
Besides the hotel the Salt Lake Sc
curity company will put in $4,000 i'm
mediately in the erection Of residences.

out. Practically 80 per cent of the
houses which will be built have been
contracted for and will be purchaser
from the Security company as soon as
completed.
Mr.. McGurrin says that he believes
the new town will be q great success
We investigated the proposition
thoroughly" he said, before putting
in a single dollar. and there is abso-
lutely no doubt about the new town
being success. We expect to Invest
probably over $4,000 out there before
We get through"

With the weight of parochial duties
upon their shoulders it is impossible for
the priests attached 10 the cathedral to

can be devoted to this work by the
priests. Father McMenamin has there
fore requested that those who are ready

The Earliest Religion.

Religion was at first purely dog
matte, an affair OF the family, pure and
simple. The gods were the dead an
scestors. and the worship consiated Of
the perpetual care of the hearth 1ra
and the graves Of the departed rsia-
tives. It was the ancient belief (the
most ancient. SO far as we know that
the departed ancestors continued to
live In or about the tomb, and that
their peace and happiness depended
absolutely upon the care with which
their posterity looked after their wor-
ship. II the hearth fire was allowed to
die down, or the tomb was neglected.
or the food and drink were not faith
fully taken to the tomb, their exist
ence became wretched one; where
as, II these things were carefully at
tended to, all was serene with them.
There is much to show that this
domestic belief obtained for long
time before the belief in God and q
future life came In. Chicago Amer.
