Mrs. Chas. Sheldon received
word recently that an uncle died
in Norway and she was one Of
the heirs to his estate valued
at one hundred and twelve thou

Editor E. E. Cowell, of the
Dogden News and Chief of the
Bull Moose party, spent three
days here interviewing the candi-
dates and talking politics. He
made many friends while here, he
is a nice appearing fellow, pleas

looks a great deal like Theodore
Roosevelt, whose doctrines he is
a great believer in. Mr.. Cowell

Mrs. E. II. Holtan of Ryder
took her daughter Thelma, to

is not true. Mrs. Holtan also
said they have been shipping

Karl Klein, the rustling real
estate man, was mentioned as a
prominent slope candidate for
commissioner Of agriculture and
labor, but he is not a candidate.
It is a great disappointment to
his friends who expected to boost
him along. 1t was not expected
that Mr.. Gilbreath would ask to
be reelected, but it seems as
though some people hang OH UNI
til they are kicked off and this
will no doubt be Gilbreath's case.
He has held the position long
enough and ought to give way
now to a younger man. Without
question Mr.. Klein would have
made a good commissioner and
he would put life into the office.
Mr.. Klein is a man Of good hab-
its and a sound character which
is more than can be said Of the
present incumbent. Mr.. Klein is
we'll known over the entire state
and he would have been pro-
minent candidate. There are
too many in the field SO he will
not enter the race.

FOUND STONE AGE CEMETERY
Recent Discovery In italian Province
Will Arouse Keen Interest
Among Areheologlsts.

A burial place Of the Stone Age has
just been found by Prof Dali Osso of
Ancona. in the Vale Vibrata prov
ince of AbruzziD. Italy.
The bodies are not buried but are
all laid in small cabins containing
from two to eight each, and are
ranged on either side of these little
huts on low platforms sloping toward
the center
With a single exception the bodies
all rest on one side, with the knees
drawn up, and 1t is assumed that the
dead were placed in this position to
give them the attitude OF prayer in
their death chamber, for It has been
established that the custom of praying
on ones knees was already in exist
ence In the Stone Age In Egypt.
In one of the cabins, almost in the
center of the group, there are no
bodies, but big circular hearth,
around which 1t is assumed, from the
fragments Of broken earthenware pots
around 1t, the funeral banquets were
held.
The objects found in the cabins with
the bodies have remarkable import
ance from the archaeological point of
view, az they prove the existence Of
a degree OF civilization, especially as
regards vases and such utensils, never
hitherto observed in the Neolithic age.

New York Sun states. She wrote that
since all other forms of punishment
had failed she would suggest that each
criminal be tattooed with a suitable
mark across his forehead or on the
cheeks.
"A pickpocket," she said, should
have a long fingered red hand grasp
ing a purse tattooed on the cheek. A
Black Handler should have a black
heart pierced with a red dagger, a
gunman should be marked with a
red hand grasping gun, grafters
with a hand grasping the long green,
thugs marked with blue hand grasp
ing a blackjack. burglars marked with
a doorlock and pick.

seldom missing. There were times
when he thought he detected ten

"Marvelousl" he interrupted loudly.

said sweepingly and he could almost
see the inclusive gesture with her free

at the shrewdness of her perceptions.
"I1l come over this afternoon and
show you wherein you are wrong" he
began, but sine interrupted him with a
laugh.
Il am starting for the city before

Il say Sara, what does all this
mean? You"
And If you should follow me
there, Vivian's estimate Of us will not
be so far out of the way as we'd
like to make It,"
True to her word, she was gone
when he drove over later on in the
day. Somehow, he experienced a
queer feeling of relief. Not that he
was oppressed by the rather vlvacious
opinions of Vivian and her ilk, but
because something told him that Sara
was wavering in her determination to
withhold the secret from him and fled
for perfectly obvious reasons.
He had two commissions among the
rich summer colonists. One, a full
length portrait of young Beardsley in
shooting toys, was nearly finished, The
other was to be a halflength of Mrs.
Ravenscroft, who wanted one just like
Hetty Castleton's, except for the eyes,
which she admitted would have to be
different. Nothing was said of the
seventeen years difference in their
ages. Vivian had put off posing until
Lent.
The Wrandalls departed for Scot
land, and other friends of his began
to desert the country for the city. The
fortnight passed and another week
besides. Mrs. Rsvenscroft decided to
go to Europe when the picture was
half-finished.
You can finish it when l come back
in December, Mr.. Booth" she said.
"Ill have several new gowns to choose
from, too"
81 shall be busy all winter, Mrs. Ra-
venscroft," he said coldly.
How annoying" she said calmly,
and that was the end Of it all. She
had made the unpleasant discovery
that it wasn't going to be in the least
like Hetty Castleten'e. so why bother
about IL?
Booth waited until Sara came out
to superintend the closing Of her house
for the winter He called at South
look on the day of her arrival He
was struck at once by the curious
change in her appearance and manner.
There was something bleak and desc
late in the wildly brilliant face: the
tired, wistful, harassed look OF one
who has begun to quail and yet fights
on.
"Will you go out with me tomorrow,
Brandon, for an all-day trip in the
carr" she asked, as they stood to-
gether before the open fireplace on
this late November afternoon. Her
eyes we're moody, her voice rather
lifeless.
