casions.
All Salt Lake is agog trying to
solve the riddle of these peculiar at
tacks.
Recently the girl was awakened
at 4 in the morning to find the dark
forms of two men at her bedside.
Before she could scream a hand
closed over her lips. A gag was
placed roughly between her teeth
and bound around her head. In spite
of her struggles she was carried to
a gTanaTy in the rear Of the Cold
water home.
Then came the intensely fendish
feature of the mysterious assault.
The men bound her ankles, tied her
wrists together with rope, throw
ing the loose end over a rafter. The
rope was frightened slowly. The girl
was drawn upward until her toes
barely touched the floor. The en-
tire procedure was carried out in ST.
lence. The two men looked at each
other, smiled and disappeared.
Four hours later the girl managed
to work the gag loose. Her cries
attracted her father. She was hys-
tericaI and half conscious when re-
leased.
This was the second visit. A few
nights before the mysterious pair
had attempted to capture her, but
she escaped, her screams arousing
the neighborhood.
A week or so later she endured a
similar experience. Her room was
entered again at in the moring. She
was awakened by a man at her bed |
side. Again a hand stopped her cries. |
Again the gag was put in her mouth. /
Then the unscrUpulous assailants |
carried her to the granary and left
her hanging by the wrists, her body,
covered only by night dress, ex-
posed to the cold weather.
Hours later she once more slipped
the gag from her mouth. Her

from the floor preclude the POSSIBLE
ity Of the girl having tied herself.
No violence beyond that necessary
to subdue her struggles has been Of
fered her. Robbery is not the motive
Of the attacks: Nothing was
touched in the house, except the girl
The Coldwater home, which stands
in lonely spot beyond>the edge of
Salt Lake, is now being carefully

The Lion Of Sc. Marx.

The symbol Of the Venetian republic,
the famous lion Of St. Mark, Is made
Of bronze. There is a tradition among
the Venetian people that its eyes are
diamonds. They are really white ag-
ates, faceted. Its name is most elab-
orately wrought, and its -retracted,
gaping mouth and its fierce mustaches
give it an oriental aspect The crea-
ture as it now stands belongs to many
different epochs, varying from some
date previous to our era down to this
century. . 1t is conjectured that it may
have originally formed part Of the
decoration of some Assyrian palace.
St. Marks lion it certainly was not
originally, for it was made to stand
level. upon the ground and had to be
raised In front to allow the evangel to
be slipped under its fore paws.

Chant Of The Maori.

An interesting and pathetic scene is
often witnessed in the camps where
there are Maori soldiers. These occa.
sions are when Maoris who have been
wounded in battle take leave of their
comrades on the eve of their return
to their homes. in many cases to fight
no more.
Before their departure those who are
left behind set up mournful, though
melodious, dirgelike chant, the pathos
Of which invariably brings tears to the
eyes of those who hear it. It is their
chant Of farewell to those brothers In
arms who have shared their dangers
and who will never fight side by side
with them again.
The Maoris place their faith great
deal in green jade luck charms. Green
jade has with them a traditional In
terest, for it was Of this material that
the tomahawks of the ancient Maori
chiefs were Observation-Disclosures Mail

First conousst Of the Mattsrhorn,

First Conquest Of the Mattsrhorn.
The formidable peak known as the
Matterhorn long remained unconquer-
ed. No less than eight attempts were
made by Edward Whymper alone.
The ninth was successful, but was
marred by terrible catastrophe.
While descending, soon after leaving
the summit. Hadow, one Of the party,
slipped, dragging four others with
him. The remaining three were well
placed and managed to save them
selves by holding firmly to the rocks.
The rope between them, however,
broke, and they saw their unfortunate
comrades disappear over the edge, to
fall the depth Of one mile to the gla-
cier below. This was two generations
ago. Now scarcely a summer day
passes in times of peace when a dozen
mountaineers, men and women, do not
reach its summit.-Natonal Geograph-
ic Magazine.

Acceptino the Inevitable.

A man is known by the manner in
which he accepts the inevitable. The
wisest and happiest man is the one
who looks into the future and discerns
the inevitable at the greatest distance.
Such a man then goes out, meets the
inevitable at least halfway, slaps it on
the back, takes it by the hand, en-
.velops it with his aura and asks it to
stay to lunch.
The miserable of earth are those who
are continually trying to dodge the In
evitable. Perhaps they shut their eyes
when they hear that it IS expected, OF
oftentimes they jump into bed and pull
the clothes over their heads. The mad
houses are full of people who have
quarreled with the inevitable SO much
that neither polite society nor tmpolite

The TempIars.

The order Of the Templars was or
ganized about the year 111S for the
purpose Of protecting pilgrims On their
way to the Holy Land and back. The
founder Of the order is supposed to
have been Baldwin H., king Of Jeru-
salem. For a long time the Templars
was the most highly honored organ
ization in Europe, but jealousy on the
part of the sovereigns, coupled with
their desire to get hold Of the great
wealth of the Templars, caused the
persecution of the order, which finally
about 1909 resulted in its practical
extinction. The order was abolished
in 1312.-New York American.
