in saving Moses when he became the
emancipator Of Israel and the founder
Of a new nation. In the first great act
of national rejoicing which followed the
overthrow Of the host Of Pharoah in
the Red rea, Miriam's place was in the
foreground. The song OF Moses and
Miriam at this overthrow OF the Egyp-
tan army is one Of the Oldest national
anthems in the world, and 1t Is admiYa-
bly, expressed by Thomas Moore:
Sound the loud timbrel Ger Egypt's
dark sea!
Jehovah has triumphed-His people are
free!
sing-for the pride Of the tyrant is
broken;
His chariots. his horsemen, all gpien-
did and brave
How vain was their boastingI the Lord
hath but spoken,
And chariots and horsernen are sunk
in the wave" =
When Miriam found the hest OF Pha-
raoh overthrown, she took a timbreI
and ali the Hebrew women followed her
singing and dancing. She led the fe-
male voice in the grand chorus:
Sing We to Jehovah, for He hath tri-
umphed gloriously;
The horse and his rider hath he thrown
into the sea-"
The Limitation of Miriam's character
came out in the third episode OF her
life, described in the 18th chapter OF
Numbers. Even them, as an old wo-
man, she was an exalted parsonage. a
leader Of popular opinion. But she ap-
peared now as a leader of discomfort
and revolt, for her brother Moses hav-
ing married an Ethiopian, Miriam ana
Aaron voiced the prejudice of the He
brews by speaking against Moses be-
cause ne had married this foreign We
man. She attempted to break down the
authority Of Moses. But her punish
ment is described as swift and signal
As she stood with her two brothers
alone In the tabernacle, whittier the Di-
vine voice had summoned them for
judgment, the pale plague of Egypt
smote her. She became a leper white
as snow. The two brothers Joined in
prayer that her punishment might be
removed and the anxious nation waited
for the completion OF the seven days or
her publication.
Miriam died in Kadesh while the
children Of Israel were still Journey
ing through the desert before they en-
tered into the Promised Land.

journey to meet Isaac. Isaac" the
Scriptures relate, took Rebekah and she
became his wife, and he loved her; and
Isaac was comforted after his mothers
death"
The best qualities of Rebekah are
shown in her eagerness to render serv-
ices to an utter stranger. The next
incident was. in her married life, the
birth Of the twins. Esau and Jacob. 30
years after the courtship and marriage.
Little as is told of Isaac's domestic life.
there is enough to indicate that hus-
band and wife lived bound together b.
the bonds OF a mutual affection, which
did not lessen with advancing years.
The third scene in Rebekah's life Is
the one which indicates the defect III
her character-her partiality, as mot1au
-e1ss-Efis d1fet and less stormy chalHc-
ter of Jacob attached Rebekah more
strongly to him than to Esau. Her par
TALLY led her to applaud the bargain
ing shrewdness Of her favorite son
when Esau designed to sell his birth
right. And still more so was the cum
ming of Rebekah shown IL the decep-
ton she practiced upon her HUSBAND
to win for her favorite the fathers
blessing Wn1Cn serves IN ueu OF q Will
and makes him head OF the household.
The treachery of Jacob and Rebelah
miscarried, and alarmed at the not un-
natural threats of the angry Esaus and
directed by both his parents 20 seek
wife from their kindred, Jacob had
hardly received his fathers blessing
before he left his home and apparent-
ly Rebekah never saw him again. Ana
this puts an end to the fragrnentary
story of Rebekah's life. OF her subse-
quent life and of her death we know
nothing, only from Jacobs farewell ad-
dress to his sons on his deathbed we
know that his mother was buried in the
family burying ground with Abraham
and Sarah, the father and mother-in-
law, and with Isaac, her husband.
Despite her defects of character, de-
spite her unjustifiable, yet not wholly
inexplicable, Intervention for her IA

for 80 centuriesi honored wherever the

Plans Had Been Tentative.

All these plans, however, had been
of tentative nature and it remained
for negotiations completed last week
to enable the promoters to make def
mite announcements. With 100000
600 back of them, the promoters can
now proceed with their irrigation
plans and those of the newer project
of building the railroad which is to
link the section with the capital and
metropolis of the state.
Those at the head of the venture
are not in position, il is understood,
to make known details of the rail-
road route, and plans concerning it to
the extent in which they have re-
vealed specifications for the power
plant and irrigation system. There
is considerable still to be done in
connection with the transportation
phase of the undertaking. 1t is
asserted, however, that the railroad
will be entirely Independent of other
lines

PART Of PLAN
Pope Bros. Reclamation Scheme
Has Backing Of More Than
Thirty Millions.

salt Lake City, June 25.-Con-
struction of a railroad from the
Great Salt Lake valley to Nernal and
beyond is part of the gigantic
scheme for the irrigation of 400, 900
acres in Uintah county. involving
millions, for which much preliminary
work already has been done, accord
ing to announcements made last
night. Building of the new line in
connection with great dam and
power plant in the Green river below
Split mountain and reclamation of an
area one-half as large as the entire
irrigated acreage of the state are
virtually assured. il is said, by pledg-
es from responsible capitalists who
are signed to back the enterprise to
the extent of $40, ,OOO, 900 If needed.
IL is expected that il can all be
completed for about two-thirds of
that amount.
With assurance that sufficient cap
ital will be available, preliminary
work now in progress will give way
to active construction. Two COM
panies have been organized. Con-
struction of the dam and power plant
will be begun and right of way for
the proposed railroad connection
will be filed upon Immediately. 1t is
estimated that the reclamation of
the great arid oil tract in eastern
Uintah county will add at the most
conservative estimate S100,0OO.O0
to the value of the land in the state
and 100000 industrial citizens to
Utah's census. Those interested in
the venture maintain that. with irri-
cation, land in Uintah county east
of the Green river will become as
wonderfully productive as the Grand
valley fruit and vegetable district.

Two Companies Organized.
Two companies to carry on this
work are the Split Mountain Power
company and the Split Mountain Ir-
rigation company. both of which are
headed by John T. Pope of Ogden.
