William PENIS HeirIOOmS
Brought To America

NEW YORK, April 10.-A collec-
ton of family heirlooms of William
Penn and his descendants has been
the guest from Philadelphia or Boston
brought to this country by a London
dealer in antiquities who obtained them
ten years ago from a member of the
family.
Hannah Penn, daughter of Richard
Penn, who was grandson Of the set
tier of Pennsylvania, bequeathed them
to her brother Richard upon her
death in 1856. He in turn bequeathed
them to Mariana Rutland, late COM
Danion to my sister, Hannah Penn"
and from her they passed into the
hands of her husband, William Her
bert Their adopted daughter, Mary
Butlin, became the owner in 1901, and
she sold them to the London dealer.
One of the oldest relics in the lot
is a large parchment, in a queer gilt
frame, containing the original letters
patent from William and Mary, rein
stating William Penn as Governor OF
the Province of Pennsylvania in place
of Benjamin Fletcher, 1894, and is
done in red and black ink, which has
faded very little.
OF PENIS personal property there
is not a great supply. Evidently his
Quaker notions of simplicity were
carried out to the letter, for while his
descendants had fine watches, desk
ornaments and trinkets Of considera
BILE value, his chief luxury appears t.
have been a simple silver plate, or
the rim of which the Penn family
arms are engraved.

Recommends That City Buy and
Maintain Plant for Repair
of Streets.
MEANS IMMENSE SAVING,
is OPINION OF BODY
Says Complete Equipment May
Be Obtained for From
$4,000 to $4,000.

Urging that some action be taken with
O. view TO establishing plant for repair
ing asphaltum pavement, TO be owned and
operated by the city, the board or public
works filed It's annual report for the year
1910 with Mayor John S. Bransford Sat
urday The report points out that
such plant is one OF the urgent needs OF
the city, and that the cost of street paw
Ing repairs has already assumed such
proportions as to demand serious attcn-
ton.
This work win in future absorb much
greater amount of the city's revenue, ac-
cordng TO the report. for the reason that
the contractors guarantees 70 maintain
the pavement will soon expire. and the
burden Of caring for the many additional
miles constructed during the past five
years will fall entirely upon the
city The board has no doubt that the
ownership OF repair plant would en-
able the city TO effect substantial re-
duction in the cost per unit OF surface
repaired and according TO the report. the
total cost Of repairs need not advance be-
yond the present figure even when the
city assumes the maintenance OF a con-
slderably increased paved area.
II cost Salt Lake City S22 900 for re-
pairs last year. according To the report.
The work was done at the rate of sl.s7
square yard, when Seattle. Denver. De-
trolt, Omaha. Indianapolis and other cit
les owning repair plants are doing the
same work for 40 10 SO cents Il square
yard.
A complete equipment that would an
swer Salt Lakes purpose for street paw
ing repairs for years to come can be pur
chased for from $4,000 10 $4,000. ac-
cordinS to the report. The capacity of
the plant and the quality of the machin
cry would be the controlling factors In the
matter OF the cost.
The report shows the following esti-
mates prepared in the office OF the city
engineer and approved by the board OF
public works providing for the payment

few days, guests at the Cullen. Judge
Stockslager has had an experience of six
teen years on the bench of Idaho. ten
years as district judge and six on the
supreme bench. When Judge Stockslager
retired from public obligations two years
ago he was firm In the belief that he
would not again be called upon 10 dis
charge judicial duties, but the uneNpect-
ed some times comes. and It was only the
other day that Governor James r. Haw
ley notified him that he had appointed
him one of the judges of the Fourth jul
dicial district. The territory embraced
in this district comprises Blaine. Twin

ties. In speaking of his appointment
Judge Stockslager said:
This appointment came TO me unso-
licited and unexpected. l had just set
tied down TO the practice OF law and the
raising OF sheep with the hope that I
might be undisturbed in the profession
and vocation that I like. This appoint
ment. which / have accepted. calls me
to the bench for the next four years.
The territory that will require my future
judicial efforts Is the same that com
prsed the district over which L presided
as judge for ten years.
THE winter thus far has been mild
apd as a consequence livestock is doing
well. We are feeding our sheep all the
alfalfa they can eat and arc In good CON-
