You've got to hand it to Nor
mon Reed Smoot. He's the only
one of the old guard who deliv-
cred.
Smoot seems to have as good
a stranglehold on Utah as Bar
ney Grogan got on the Eigh-
teenth ward, through the kind eff
forts Of the reformers who re-
distributed Chicago's wards and
precincts.
Living in Gary and being a
bride taker appear to mean just
about the same thing.
Sad indeed is the case of the
Sherlock Holmes who disguised
himself as a convict at Jackson;
Mich, so effectively that the
guards did not know him and
logged him.
THOSE HUNGRY TURKS
Goodness gracious = those
Turks are human beings after all,
even if they are not Christians:
When asked to get up on their
hind legs and fight off the infdel
invaders, the Turkish soldiers ex-
claimed Eight? Give us bread"
The very idea of asking for
bread when they were promised
immortality if they would only
fight like the dickens and get
killed.
But then it doesn't agree, with
some folks either to fight or eat
dill pickles on an empty stomach.
All the same it's very incon-
venient for kings and sultans
when their common soldiers stop
being killed long enough to ask

WAS 1T AN EAGLE?
A Young Lady Sees a Huge Bird Fly
ing Over the City, Frightening
Fowls.

While feeding her poultry on Tues
day morning, Miss Lenore Broaddus
saw what she took to be an eagle,
flying low and very slowly. The first
she knew of the presence of disturb
ing element was when the poultry set
up strong commotion, scattering
about the yard and hurriedly seeking
hiding places. Thinking it was hawk
Miss Broaddus looked overhead and
saw a tremendous bird. 1t was near
enough and sufficiently slow in it's
movements for close observation. Miss
Broaddus says it's body appeared to be
about two feet long, with pretty, soft,
silvery breast, smoke-colored wings,
large, prominent eyes, powerful bill
and claws. She didn't know what it
was, only she knew it was different
from any other bird that she had ever
seen. She could have killed it with a
gun, but had nothing more formidable
than water bucket. The bird came
from the direction of the -standpipe
and went towards the college.
It seemed to her to measure about
a yard and half from tip to tip of
wing. Several colored people in the
yard also saw the big bird.
Several eagles have been killed late
ly over the State, to say nothing of the
sseagle" brought low by Jeff" on one
of his hunting trips with Mutt"
