Homesteaders Won't
Sell Their Claims

Redfield Journal Observer: Satur.
day evening A. B. Darling and G.. M.
Henry returned from their auto trip
west of the Missouri river and were
we'll contented to get home once
more. They drove to Forest City and
nom there straight west along the
old trail over Fox ridge to the new
towns along the way, ending up at
Faith. They found the road in splen-
did condition for most of the way, but
places, where the old road had been
fenced off and a new trail made, it
was pretty rough driving.
1t was the purpose of the two gen-
llemen to look over'the land out there
and see what it could be purchased
Tor. Stories had been circulated here
to the effect that quarters could be
had almost for song, but they found
a different story entirely when they
reached their destination. DESPITE
the fact that the country is a barren
waste this year, settlers are not one
whit discouraged and are holding
their quarters at any price between
fifteen hundred and two thousand
dollars. Old timers there state that
they have never witnessed a year like
the present in the history of the re-
serVation and they believe they will
never see it so dry again. For this
reason they are going to hold onto
their land or sell it for what thew
think 1t is really worth. The settlers
who are coming back to the east are
simply moving away for the winter
because they have absolutely moth
ing to live on the next six months.
AS soon as spring opens up, however,
they are going right back to work on
their land and improve it.
The travellers found Faith about
the Invest little town on the man.
What made its energy when appar.
emily there was no foundation for
1t Is rather strange, but energetic it
was to the last degree Banks were
loaning money on the land out there
which enabled settlers to make their
proofs and still have something to
get back home on. The buildings
were all substantial and business of
every kind seemed to be Furnishing.
The newspapers there had about
ninety final proof notices last month
and expect about sixty this month,
which will wind up the notices. AS
fast as the settlers prove up they
leave for the east but with the full
intention of returning in the spring.
They failed to find any of the cheap
land of which so much has been heard
here lately, but they are convinced
that the country they visited will
sometime reach the expectations of
the pioneers who are going to stick II
out and make it as good as, the land
east of the Missouri.

Some Class About
Our ill" Arthah


Jack Johnson. the colored champion
OF the world, intends to travel in
style when he goes to Australia this
fall, and is determined that even the
Rajah of India will have nothing on
him Johnson is even going to ex-
tremes as to the extent of comforts
he wants during his trip to tine Anti
podes, which is in great contrast to
the way he travelled three years ago,
when he was seeking match with
Tommy Burns in Sidney, for the
worlds title.
In a letter received from Hugh D.
Mcintosh the latter announces that
he has closed an iron clad contract
contract with Johnson, extending over
twelve months, wherein he is obliged
to fight Sam McVey, Sam Langford,
Bill Lang or any man living. He is
also making a tour through India,
China and Japan, on his return from
Australia, and will be under the direc-
tion of Mcintosh all the while. John
son will sail from London for Aus
tralia the beginning of October, and
will reach Sidney about the middle
CT November.
Bridal Chamber Reserved.
Johnson, through Mr.. McIntosh,has
procured the finest suite of cabins on
board the Royal Mail Steamship Or.
vito, crack steamer of the Orient
line, and known as the Bridal Cham
bers.' The colored Solomon is taking
With him, three automobiles, which
include new Limousine, and 90
horse power Austin, which were re-
Gently purchased by him in London.
Bob Armstrong will accompany him,
also Monte Cutler,his valet and chauf-
feur. Can you beat it-valet and
chauffeur! Jack didn't care anything
about valet three years ago, so long
as he got his pork chops.
Mr. Mcintosh will have complete
control of Johnson for the twelve
months, guaranteeing him for that
time a net profit Of $125,O00, with an
option of his services for another
twelve months on the same condi-
tons.
johnson Matched With Wells.
johnson is matched here Nondon)
with Bonn Wells, an outside syndi-
cate having guaranteed him $4,000,
$4,000 of which is already up as a
forfeit for Johnson. The contest will
take place in September and immedi-
for Australia. He is drawing ter
rife houses here in the variety bus
mess, eclipsing all records for the
summer season. Sam McVey is also
taking two automobiles with him. SO
you can imagine what these colored
gentlemen will be doing in Sydney,
when they are driving out to the rae
es. | am leaving for Australia this
week, as l intend to devote my time
entirely to what will be the greatest
boxing season in Australia ever
known, if not in the world. With Jim
Flynn coming to Australia and alsi
AL Kaufman, there should be some
great doings, and if Flynn and John
son should clash it will mean as big
house as when Tommy Burns
fought the colored man for the title.
l also have some great matches in
sight for Jimmy Clabby and Tony Ca
poni, who l understand have been
selected for me-
Gee! but what a fine bunch of col
ored stars will be parading around
Sydney's principal streets when John
son, McVey, Langford and Armstrong
get together; it will surely make
the natives of Sydney look up and
take notice, and the white boxers will
have to look to their laurels.

No Law Regarding
Passing on the Road

8 p
Woonsocket Times: A farmer sub
scriber stepped into the Office the
other day and inquired as to a law
applying to automobiles and teams,
and asked If there was any law as to
the tenn turning out and in which
direction when an auto comes up be-
hind. We have consulted promt-
nent attorney aud the code and
there is no law in regard to the turn
ing out when both vehoicles are go-
ing in the same direction. We
think that it would be good idea
for the person driving the team to
stay in the road and let the auto do
the turning.

 the previous year. All joined 1T

 Buff and Blue. 7"
 Principal Joseph Peterson
 made a short. zealous speech,
 stating the aims of the school
 urging the students to make this
 the banner year.
 The other members of the
 Faculty: Newel H. Domish. J.
 Geo. Barrett, Alfred T, Bond,
 A. Smith and Pearl. Hansen. each extended a cordial welcome to the students. The remainder of the day was spent in registration, and in the evening all Darticipat- ed in the pleasure of an Academy Ball of Welcome.
 The Academy offers a three years High School Course, as well as a course in Theology, Commerce. Preparatory and Domestic Science aud Arts.
 In the Wood Work department the school presents many advan tages to young men. probably more so than any year before. The Instructor, Professor A. T. Bond. is lately from the Univer- sitv of Utah, where he held a similar position.
 There is also a class in design ing. composed of twenty-three girls, who are learning to work in wood. leather, brass. copper etc, not only do they learn to decorate and do the finer work but they also become very pro- ficient in the use of shop tools Last year the class consisted of seven students. but they did their work SO well, that the fame of the class spread far and wide. Therefore. last year was a sue cess 1T. this line. but this year promises to be the success of sue cesses.
 Not only in the crafts and arts do we expect to attain heights, but in the Domestic Arts and Science. which could not help be- ing a success with the qualified teacher, Mrs. Nellie Hansen and her assistant Miss Pearl Hansen. There is an excel lent three years course given in both branches, with an extra class in Art Needlework. Yet. while we feel that this work is very fascinating. nothing will bring more real benefit to the home, than will the above 
 The Music Department, under the able instructor. Progessor J. q. Barrett. promises a very bene- ficial course in vocal. band, or chestra, and organ.
 The school meets in the same buildings as it did last year, after the fire. The passing from one building to the other. thought to be an inc onvenience, has only proved benefit. because a few walk in the fresh air after a class recitation brightens ones intellect for the next period. Consequently, it is selfevident1 1 that it doesn't t take the building to make a school of real worth, l but real determination. Yet, we look forward with pleasure to the completion of the new build | ing that is under construction at ] the present time. Already the excavation for the heating plant is finished. The Contractor has a large force of men in the stone quarry. and a good crew of mas ons on the building.

" OAAOC VI CAAC AJAAO AAcAAA~ Stake, was held here on the z
 and 8" Inst. It was not so well
 attended as some of the previous
 conference, but those who were
 present cannot deny having re-
 celved a spiritual, as well as an
 intellectual treat.
 Saturday, at the close of the afternoon session. a Young Lad ies Mutual Improvement Associa- ton fair was held. There was not a large display but a good one.
 The Conjoint part of the Con- ference was held Sunday night. It consisted of very interesting Missionary experiences. and out lines of the past and coming winters work of the M. 1. A. workers, being interspersed with musical numbers.
 The District Schools opened Monday Sept. 4th. inst, with a good corps of teachers. MT. s. L Fish as principal, with Mir. J. B. Pace, MT. W. A. Shumway, and Misses Thalia Kartchner and Edith Smith as assistants. The Primary and First Grade classes are placed at some disadvantage on account of there not being enough room in the District School building to accomodate all, but willhave new building soon.
 On the evening of the Sixth, inst, merry party gathered at the home of MT. Joseph w. Smith. to celebrate his fifty-s sec ond birthday. They had a very pleasant time. Had contesting games, and awarded prizes to both the winner and losers. Neighbors, for some distance around, were aware of their good time. from the music, singing, laughter and applause that were waited out upon the evening air. MT. Smith would not object, we are sure, to birthday semi-an- nually, or even more frequent.
 The grain crops were fairly good this summer. Tke new thresher propelled by gasoline has been very busy the last three weeks, and MT. Frank M'Claws, i owner, makes the following re- port: In all they have threshed l ten-thousand bushels of grain, | with an average of eight-hundred bushels per day. The cost of the machine was $515.00. and the en zine $825. .O0. making total of $1. $40. %. From the first it has done good work.
 The Bee Keeper report an ex- traordinary crop of honey this year. One. especially, Mrs. E. J. Smith says that she will have 2, 400 pounds of honey, 20G gallons of vinegar and about about 30 pounds of wax.
 There is very little fruit this year, but good crops of potatoes. corn, ect.
 MT. Lewis Hunt, his sisters and other relatives are anticipat- a trip to their old home in Seveia, New Mexico. or Ramah, as it is now calico. They left there in the fall of '78, and this will be their first visit. They will pass through the noted Salt Beds of New Mexico, past the historic Aztec Rock, and on through three differant Zuni Indian villages. Then, on their return trip, they will came by Eager, Arizona, the home of their sister, Mrs. N. Rencher.
 MT. Chase Rogers and family have gone to the White Mounta- ins, to spend few days of plea sure and recuperation.

tween the Ft. Apache soldiers
 and the boys of Snowflake was
 very interesting. It seemed to
 be especially so to the soldiers,
 as their shouts could be heard
 for nearly mile around. How
 ever, they did some very good
 playing, and, notwithstanding
 the fact, that some of our best
 players were in the team, the soldiers proved too much for
 them. the score being eight to
 one. Of course. we cannot ex-
 pect to come out victorious e, cry
 time, and if in the future they
 should beat us, again. we would
 still have no cause to feel dis
 ..ouraged, for several times in in the past. our boys have played them, and came off victorious.
 MT. James M. Flake was in- formed last evening, of the death of his oldest granddaughter, who was the oldest child of Mir. and Mir. Lewis Johnson, of Lake side. She is supposed to have been bitten by some poisonous insect, as there was large swell on her right leg, which gradually spread until it reached her thigh. Her suffering was intense, and death came before medical aid could reach her.
 MT. John Hunt, and company are out at the Sinks, ten miles west of here. gathering their crop of wild hay. They are elated over the prospects, as they anticipate a crop of about thirty-five tons.
 MT. W. J. Duppert passed through here, on his way to Lincoln, Nebraska, where he teaches forestry in the State University. He does not think he will ever return to this part of the country again.
 A theatre was presented Satur day night, under the direction of the Sunday School. entitled. Rocky Ford" a drama in 4 acts There was a large and interested audience, and it proved to be quite successful. Mrs. Kenner Kartchner and MT. Marion Rog- CTS starred as leading lady and gentlmen: The parts of Miss Louise and MT. Evan Larson | were of good comedy. and MT. l Hugh Willis played the william. Considering all to be amatuers, they are to be complimented and hope it will not be thelr last eff fort.

Mir. and Mrs. Edward H. Anderson, from Salt Lake City. and representing the general Board of the above organizations, were with us. and gave very dear outlines of winte''s work.
