ed sound common sense, which
united with sense of justice made
him an equitable Judge, whose de-
cisions were seldom reversed. His
prudence, cool-headed poise and
good judgment were manifested in
his business affairs, as a lawyer as
well as on the bench. These quail
ties united with hard common sense,
enabled him to grasp legal principles
and make practical application of
them, where many persons with far
greater scholastic attainments have
failed. In administering justice to
criminals he was lenient to fault.
He attended church regularly at
the morning service and maintain
ed respectful attitude towards the
church, to which he contributed,
and of which he was trustee, furth-
er than that he gave no sign. With
temperance and kindred reforms he
was never identified, although per-
sonally he was man of temperate
habits. Socially he looked on the
bright side of things and lent him
self easily to the lighter amuse-
ments; and trout fishing was his
principal recreation. He was an in
telligent conversationlist, although
not an extensive reader nor q man
of great scholarship. Altogether
he was man who attended to his
own affairs very strictly and pru-
IDENTIFY without intermeddling very
seriously with other things, and
both politically and financially, like
most prudent men he was successful.

r. M. Stocker said: 1t seems but
yesterday that Judge Purdy was up.
on our streets, in our offices and sit.
| ting in yonder chair in our court
| room, now he is only a reminiscence
an echo of the past, which only re.
minds us how transitory life is.
1t matters little what we say
here, every man writes his own me-
mortal by the life he leads as he
moves about before the community.
Character and reputation are the
resultant of that life, and from the
impression made by the life there is
no appeal. Fulsome eulogy cannot
add to, nor harsh criticism take from
the record which every man makes
for himself, but ones contemporar-
les may prof1tably consider some of
his characteristics.
A prominent characteristic of
Judge Purdy was prudence. 1.-THE
prudent man foreseeth the evil and
hideth himself" The Anti-Court
House movement taken at its food
led on to fortune and the Judgeship
for George S. Purdy. With that
movement he was identified particu-
larly in connection with the election
OF Otis Avery, as Associate Judge.
He was also strenuously engaged in
the campaign for the Judgeship in
1888, otherwise he took no very ac-
tive part, excepting for a few friends
In any political contest. Being
elected Judge in 1898 without op-
position and again, in the same man
ner in 1908, he doubtless consider
ed himself out of politics. Ten
years of commissioners clerkship
and fifteen years of the Judgeship
constitutes his official life. In both
positions he succeeded in meeting
with very general appreciation.
Without the advantages of any
thing but a common school educa-
tion, his early training in farming,
numbering, school teaching and
clerkship in tannery stores, develop

SNOW IS DRIVING SHEEP
OUT OF THE MOUNTAINS
Flockmasters Making Haste to Get
Their Flocks Down Before
Winter Arrives.

Snow in the mountains, some places
foot in depth, is driving the last of the
sheep from the summer ranges. The first
fall Of the season struck the mountain
ranges Wednesday, as a result of the drop
in temperature OccasiOned by the great
storm now passing over the Rockies to the
north and floekmasteFs are taking the
trail in anxious haste.
The splendid October weather had led
many to hold their flOcks on the rich sum-
mer ranges longer than usual and as
result a final general exodus is taking
place For two weeks the dust has never
settled along the long trails where nearly
three millions of sheep have passed en-
route to the desert. From the ranges
directly east and northeast of Salt Lake,
extending as far as Wyoming and the
Uintah reservation, the sheep men have
been pushing their flOckS down Emigra-
ton canyon and around the southern ex-
tremity of the city along Twelfth South
street At the office of the sheep COM
mlssiOners yesterday ii was stated that no
less than half million sheep had passed
along Twelfth South street in the past
month. Farther north in the Monte Cristo
ranges the trails lead to the northwest
around the northern end of Great Salt
lake and thence to the desert.
All but about 100000 sheep have left the
mountains. Most of these are still on
the ranges to the northeast. Reports re-
ceived by the state wool growers assOcia-
ton yesterday were to the effect that the
remaining flOcks had been caught in the
snow and would have to be pushed out of
the mountains with great haste if no
losses were to result.

CHANGED HIS TUNE.

Charles r. Bacon. for many years
manager of the "Bostonians," is in Salt
Lake City arranging for the appearance
here next week of Chauncey Olcott at
the Salt Lake theatre. Like all press
agents. Mr. Bacon has a fine story to
tell of the heroic exploit of his star
This one about MIR. OlcOtt he swears
is true.
The company was playing St Paul a
few weeks ago. and Mr.. Olcott and a
friend went out one afternoon for an
automobile ride. They stopped for
lunch at small hotel, and while they
were eating they heard a disturbance
back in the barn. Mr.. Olcott rushed
out and found three Germans attack
ing one Irishman. He thought of a
scheme. He started to sing MY Wild
Irish Rose" The song only made them
fight harder. He gritted his teeth and
began Die WaCht Am Rhein' The
Germans paused for a moment then
turned and fled
The Irishman started after Mr.. OIL
colt, who barely saved his life bv
throwing a brake on Die Wacht Am
Rhein' and singing "Hurrah for the
Irish" as he ran.

is not melodrama, nor Is IL written
around the legs of a female chorus.
It's tremendous vogue is clearly signifi-
