OUR Agnes should cultivate
gentle and retiring disposition

" OUR Agnes should cultivate
gentle and retiring disposition
lest she bellies her name, which
literally translated lamb hence "Ag-
mes Del" j. e. the lamb of God, signl-
flying certain prayer in the sacrifice
of the mass.
AS in ancient Rome the lamb was
consecrated to sacred purposes, it is
not surprising that the name was ap-
piled to the gentle girl famed in the
history of the church as one of the
early Christian martyrs. Agnes the
representative. the triumphs of limo
cence."
The church of St Agnes in the
Eternal Slty-~Stands on the very spot
where the lamb-like creature IS salo
to have suffered. and the story OF
her martyrdom Is embellished by one
of those legendary events that in
years to come crystalize into folklore.
The records have it, that when ST.
Agnes was stripped naked before the
people for her tortures, hal1 turned
away their eyes except one, who IN
stantIy became blind-the unfortunate
forerunner of t'Peeping Tom" of Lady
Godiva.
ST. Agnes's nameday is on January
20. and on its eve girl is supposed
to see the face Of her future husband
through certain forms Of divination
as told In Keats poem, ''The Eve OF
st. AgnesP
I may mention in passing that some
of our English cousins seem to be
under the Impression that St Agnes
continues to do miracles even today
Thus. a girl named Agnes. who prays
nine times TO the moon and fasts on
three successive st. Agnes days" is
said to be privileged to obtain any
man for her husband she chooses If
this were true doubtless, the capa-
CITY of our divorce courts would have
to be doubled.
The name Agnes is sometimes de-
rived from Greek adjective meaning
pure. which is rather far fetched. The
white violet is Agnes's emblem, mod
esty her sentiment
Our own spelling of Agnes also pre-
walls in France, Sweden and Denmark
The Italians add final sc" pro-
nounced "a" while some Slav countries
adopt more stately forms Agnessa
(Russia). Agnizka Poland),. Anexka
(Bohemian). The English Agneta is
particularly popular in Devonshire and
is used also in Sweden and Italy. but
our diminutive Aggie does not recon-
mend itself to persons of refined taste.
The Welsh Nest" and the Manx Mes
sy" seem preferable
The French for once lost their cum
ming in discovering substitutes. AGNES
is the best they can do. However.
girls tired of Agnes or Aggie might
try Janja (Servian), Hanxa dusa-
tian). Negika. (Scanonic), or Neto
(Esthonion) The Italian Agnesca
closely resembles the Russian, Polish
and Bohemian terms already mention

VICTORIA ORE HAS
AROUSED INTEREST
Many Are Wondering What
Neighbors Will Get Some Of
New Rock.

There IS great deal OF speculation
rife in Salt Lake and Tintic in regard
to tho Significance OF the recent ore de-
yelopmenta In the Victoria Consolidated
for tho neighbors OF this proposition.
What the strike means TO the Victoria
company ia well known, but II II is
new resource there are some adjoining
properties which stand O. chance TO Sc
cure n portion OF what Is proving TO be
one of tho features Of the Tinuc dis
trlct.
II Is understood that tho Victoria de-,
velopment has given the Grand Central
company a hint and that come new work
is en- route to the point where this ore
in all logic should make It's appearance;
Then there are tho Eagle & Bne Bell
and the Chief Consolidated properties:
which are located in q manner highly
suggestive of future fireworks.
1t all goes TO show that rintic Is a dis
trict full OF surprises and opportunity,
and there are those who believe the
camp is due with q. new string OF devel-
opments at various points which VIII
sill further strengthen the position OF
the caulp.

MAY DAY HAS NEW
MINE BY DISCOVERY
New Ore Means Big Things for
This Old Tintic Profit
Maker.

That the recent strike on the 5oo-toot
leve, OF the May Day property means an
entirely new mine for this company, is
the verdict of everyone who has been
fortunate enough To visit this mine In
the past few days. The values have been
increasing with each round OF shots as
the MANAGEMENT has reached further in
from the edge. and samples reported
Saturday gave the following average val
ues; Lead. so per cent, silver, - ounces;
gold. $3.50 per ton
The impression is very we'll settled that
this ore Is a continuation of that noted
Yankee Consolidated ore body which
several years ago. was known as The
Jewel Box, and from which the Yankee
extracted the greater part OF Its d!vl-
dend material.
There is every reason TO believe that
this new ore body will gain in strength
with depth. In raising from the 5O0-foot
level for twenty feet the ore vas found

forks being full OF possibilities. while
