QUICK TO LEARN.

Tho Timid Young Bride Coached by
 Her Husband.
 A young bride who belonged to a charity club and sometimes had to go out alone after dark was very much afraid of being stopped and robbed. Her husband dlsliked to provide her with a revolver but he bought a punching bag and showed her how to use her fists and where to place the most telling blow in case of molesta- tlon
 Below the belt, mind you" he nd. jured her-"below the belt Such blow if properly planted will make man sorry quicker than anything, If any one steps out In front Of you your course will be easy. If he comes up behind you swing round suddenly and strike out hard. The robber will re- pent of his evil ways In hurry"
 That night was the brides late even. ing, and she happened to be coming up the street just in front of her husband when he saw her, and the spirit of mis- chief took possession of him.
 Wonder if shed really do as I told her or lG her little fists would hurt any oue?' he pondered.
 Two seconds later he found out. Walking up behind his wife he laid heavy hand upon her shoulder He had no time in which to say anything, and she made no eTort in that dlrec- tion. She simply obeyed his instruc- tons to the letter, swinging round with a suddenness which completely dlsconcerted him. and delivered a blow that made all the rest of bis predIc- lions come true.
 Then she fled home with the speed and energy of a frightened deer not even waiting to cast a single glance at the dIscomftcd man who had, as she supposed, endeavored to rob her. She passed the remainder of the evening in alternately weeping out her nervous. ness upon her husbands shoulder and wondering why he looked so pale.

The MiddIc Snlash.


 "Joe Jobson very ignorant and plgheaded chap. presented himself at an English village church with his in- fant son for the christening" said a clergyman. "The following dialogue then took place between Jobsou and the minister:
 "Wh0t name do you give this childT "'Peter Anani0s Jobson.'
 "'Auanias? l refuse Co christen the child in that name. Do you know who AnaniaS w0sT
 ''I don't know who he was, and, what's more. I don't care
 But Ananias was the greatest liar in an Biblical history
 "'Well. that's nothing to me. My baby ain't no liar, so what's the differ euce2 I want him christened Ananias because I like the sound of it.
 "I won't do it. I will chrlsten the child Peter Jeremiah Jobson.'
 And the minister was as good as his word. and as he repeated each name he Sprinklcd a little water on the in. fants face.
 And I rub out that middle splash, said the father heatedly He rubbed his sleeve across his child's wet face and sprinSled a little more water over tt. T rub out that middle splash, sub stltute this one for 1t and christen him Peter Ananias Jobson' And that set tied it."

When Mark Twain sioaraphed satan:

When Mark Twain 5iographed Satan.
 Mark Twain confesses in "Is Shake speare Dead" that he was once very much interested in Satan Be argued the whole proposition pretty ably with his Sunday school teacher, who finally suggested that little Samuel Clemens should write Satau's biography. The idea and the scenario that aCcompa- nied it were a great shock to that young Sunday school teacher He told the spoctive QueStIoner that no one who ventured to mock at the real bi- ographers of Satan could ever hope to enter aftcrward any respectable house. How true, says Mark Twain, "were his words, and how wise! How for tunate it would have been for me if l had needed them. But I was young -I was but seven years of age-aud vain. foolish and anxious to attract attention. I wrote the biography and have never been in a respectable house since"

His Draw.

A cartoonist who had been married only short while met some of his old time boon companions, who induced him to take hand in a little game of draw which kept him out until the wee small hours. His excuse to his wife when he got home was that a pressure of work kept him at the of flee. His wife sympathized with him, and the next day, indignantly telling a friend about how the office imposed upon her husband, said, And 1 know that Fred really didn't want to stay in the old office and work last night"
 "Why, how do you kuow?' asked the friend.
 Because in his sleep Fred said, Well. TIl stay, but l don't know what to draw"

A schOolteachcr in a rural district left her boarding place suddenly and could not be prevailed upon to return. Her l0udIady asked the committee to find out why her boarder had left her, aud to them the young woman said plainly that the food was so bad she could not eat It.
 This explanation was in turn con- veyed to the landlady, who expressed the greatest surprise.
 "Why." she said, q don't see how that could be. I knew the bread was bad two or three times, but I was al- ways careful to excuse it."

Lying near the summit of Crow creek pass the fleshless bones of an elderly man known as Hunter have been found by a prOspector called Blacksmith Johu." During the winter of l9O6-7 Hunter departed for Knlk enroute for Seward. He had a hand sled and carried the usual outfit for a lengthy mushing trip. As he neared the summit of what is known as Crow creek pass, coming up the Raven creek side he met Duke liar rls the intrepid musher coming from Seward en route to the Matanuska coal fields. Harris had crossed the summit and a severe storm was rag ing. He advised Hunter to pitch camp and not attempt to proceed fur ther until the storm abated, saying that 1t would be impossible for him to make the pass. Hunter, however paid no. heed to the friendly warning, and mushed on his Journey, This was the last seen of him in life.
 The recent quartz strike in the re- zion of the pass caused a small stam- pede in that vicinity. Among the sampeders was "Blacksmlth John" |"

block at first had no objection. Today,
however, the stand is an eye.sore. be

houses in the block
The attention Of Chief OF Police Bar
low was called to the stand yesterday
but after an investigation the chief
was content to let the matter alone.
This morning. however, hurry calls

for the residents had taken the matter
into their own hands and after find.

were called for and Lieutenant Hem

Chief of Police Barlow said today re.

They are erecting stand there and
there is some kick about 1t. but I can
hardly see what 10 do about It, Per
haps the erection of the stand is in
violation of the ordinance, by its be-

a few violations The stand is in
way a good deal matter Of necessity,
or at least there is public demand
for it, just as there is for many other

FALLING OFF IN CENSUS
OF SCHOOL CHILDREN

All Of the school census enumerators
have not reported as yet. and for that
reason no announcement has been
made as to the number of school chill
dren In Ogden. All of the reports will
be in by August 10. The census was
commenced on July Is. and was con-
cluded on August l. The enumer-
ators are given until the 10th to COM
plete their reports,
This years census OF one ward
showed a shortage of $50 boys and
girls over last year An investigation
by the board of education and a com
panson OF the reports of the two years,
brought TO light the fact that a num-
Der of parents had not given the
names OF their children, who were
over 16 years OF age because they
wanted TO keep them out of school In
order to work and help support the
family
The census enumerators have met
with considerable difficulty in OBJ
taining the names of children in some
wards. because the parents would en-
deavor to mislead them as to the num-
Der Of children they really had, This
was noticeable in homes where the
families were large.
