How Roberts WON the Victoria Cross


Roberts noted that a sowar of the
suuardCn with which he rode was in
great danger from sepoy with
fixed bayonet. The contest Of sword
against bayonet would have ended dis
astrously had not Roberts interviewed
and disposed of the bayonet. That
was barely done when he noticed in
the distance two sepoys fleeing with
standard He galloped after the reb-
els and overlook them, and then he
had a close fight for the possession
of the standard. He cut down its
chief bearer. While wrenching the
staff from the mans grasp with both
of his hands the other sepoy turned
his musket on him and fired The
muzZle was within a few inches of
Roberts person, and there would GER
tainly have been an end Of him had
not the musket refused to go off AS
it was, he rode away unhurt with the
standard, and for those two courage
Gus and gallant acts in close success

GENTLENEN OF OLD SCHOOL.

Some observations About Type Ex-
listing Generation Ago.
Not very long ago there was dap
per old gentleman Of 90-odd years
who, having published in his youth a
famous technical book that remains
in wide demand even to this day,
used to call frequently at his publish
ers, on matters Of business, Harper's
Weekly says. Although his face ex-
pressed an almost mummified effect
OF great age and his carriage was
little jerky in the nature of its spry-
ness, he was, nevertheless, clad upon
these occasions in the latest fashion
Of a beau about town. His clothes
were not plain One recalls their eff
feet Of having a pattern wax II all
invisible check or plaid ?--his trousers
were creased and generally light in
hue; his neckties were not those of a
man of 90-odd and over his trim,
pointed shoes he wore light tan gait
ers. The GROWING glory Of his garb
like a brave wild flower glowing
upon an ancient ruin-was the carna-
ton which was never absent from the
lapel of his coat, except when he pre-
sented it with low bow to some fair
lady. A gallant gentleman, who de-
clined to surrender to age and was
that iron necessity of our human
fate
The society Of which he was a prod
uct has passed. Then men of his day
regarded women as the fair sex, with
all which the words imply; they cher
ished them, yet as something not too
good for human natures daily food,
and they even wrote verses to them
involving such phrases as hearts
fragrance" modest eyes," ''bashful
sweetness and the like, and in such a
chirography! Theirs was net the
business men; it had an almost
feminine delicacy and precision
which is now supplied only by the
typewriting machine.
There were many specimens Of this
verse and this chirography Of 1928
in an old book which came lately by
chance into the hands of the Weekly
one of those autograph albums bound
in red leather and tastefully fooled
in gilt, which we're owned by the
young ladies of the period, and with
in whose pages were embalmed the
sentimental addresses of their admir-
ers.
Openly chivalrous in tone, tender
in spirit, what has become of the
young men of 1928 who were not
ashamed to write a copy Of verses in
their ladies' albums? Contemporaries
Gus gentlemen, armored in the cog
giles and gauntlets of the motor car,
might be inclined to sheer at them,
but the record OF mems achievement
in the work of the world was at least
as impressive in 1928 as it is now.
Autre temps, autre moeurs, but the
world moves On more or less the
same.

Mr.. Vetter had asked a member of
Mr. Barrett's organization as to what
kind of a man Mr.. Barrett was, and the
member had told Mr.. Vetter that II he
wished to know to write to a member of
the Machinists' Union in Washington.
The washington party forwarded the let

to Mr.. Vetter of the most slanderous
character in regard to Mr.. Barrett, and
because Mr.. Vetter would not tell the
name of the member of the Painters or
ganization who told him where to write
he was denounced in the vilest of lam
guage by some and upheld for not be-
traying the confidence of a brother by
others Mr.. Barrett read letters from
Providence which showed he was held
in high regard by the union men in that
city who had known him, and exhibited
watch engraved and bearing the date
of 1904 presented to him by his organ
zation when leaving Providence.
Mr.. Vetter was not endorsed by the
assembly.

ton of the action of the assembly in
discharging the committee, but was &C.
cused of having voted in the negative
and after many denials yielded to the
ruling of the chair
Albert Parish, business agent for the
Cooks union, then placed himself in

Mr.. Mum by making the same motion,

that they be given the assistance of the

NATIONAL SECOND
CRIPPLE CREEK
MINING MAN TELLS ZIONISTS
OF HUMBOLDTS GREAT
GOLD CAMP

That National will become Sec
ond Cripple Greek is the opinion of
William Rea, a mining man who has
spent a year in the now famous
camp in northern Nevada. Mr.. Rea
came to Salt Lake on business last
week, and is at the Cullen, where
he is interviewing a number of local
mining men interested in the great
young gold camp, says the Herald
Republican. Mr.. Rea represents
George H. Snowden and associates,
who own the Shiloh, group of
three claims and fraction 1900
feet south from the National Min
ing company's great property. A
number of leasers are now at work
on the Shiloh, and with gratifying
results. From the surface they
have found ore assaying from So to
as high as 5000 to the ton. So far
little outside of surface work has
been done, but preparations are now
in progress to sink 500-foot shaft
on the Shiloh's principal vein, it
having already shown white quartz
exactly like the National rock. AL
tered andesite is the footwall, and
porphyry on the other side.
'The recent registration showed
800 voters in the camp" said Mr..
Rea, "and there are probably about
| fifteen distinct outfits working as
many properties on Charleston hill
Some of the claims have several
leasing outfits at work. Numerous
good indications have been found
outside of the main properties, and
the prospects are that National will
become a second Cripple Creek.
There is an abundance of excellent
water and some small timber along

STRIKE MADE in
old SHEBA Mine

Ore giving assays of $135.70,
$11S.60 and $447,55 and carrying
from "a to 4S per cent in lead has
recently been disclosed on the lease
being worked by ]. L. Stafford and
associates on the Mammoth claim,
owned by the Sheba Mining COM
pany, situated about fifteen miles
from Mill City, in the Humboldt
range, says the Humboldt Star
While the ore disclosed shows high
values in gold, yet the predominant
ing metal content is silver. Mr..
Stafford, who is spending a few days
in town, states that the rich ore
was disclosed at a depth of less
than ten feet on virgin ground. In
the opening where the find was
made the ledge is big, showing big
streaks of the rich ore.
The Sheba is one of the historic
properties of the Humboldt range
that has production. of millions of
dollars of bullion to its credit, and
the opening of this rich ore by Mr..
Stafford and associates means the
awakening of another great mineral
section of Humboldt county.

there was no decision of the Cali
fornia supreme court along the lines
of those quoted by Greeley. Bren-
nan said it always had been the
custom in this city to give the de-
PENDANT chance to go before the
grand jury and explain his side of
the case, and that in order to avail
himself of the privilege not to be a
witness against himself he must
claim the privilege. He cited the
case of Abe Hummel, the corrupt
New York lawyer, who testified be-
fore the grand jury in his. own case
without vitiating the indictment
against him, and who served a term
in prison.
