RAILWAY STORY
, Logan January 3, 1003.
Editor Itcpubllcan:
Heading your stories In your last
Issue given by railroad employes, re
minds mo of the one told by the late
Hon. G. AV. Thatcher; the facts oc
curring as stated by him while ho
was superintendent of the Utah
Northern By. "When the Oregon
Short Line was being built from
Poca'tcllo to Huntington, men with
their families, teams and equipments
were shipped from Ogden and Preston
to Pocatcllo, thence west. The run
from Ogden north to l'oeatello was
comparatively slow, being a narrow
guagc road. A train loaded with the
above effects passed through Logan
one evening, thence to Preston. The
last two cars of this train were loaded
A with men who were having a hilarious
-C time drinking, smoking, playing cards
' etc., to pass the time away. When
reaching Preston some switching had
to be done and the hind part of the
train was detached, and left standing
on the main track upon the Preston
hill. The brakes on this part of the
train proved defective, thereby not
holding It. The detached part com
menced to move slowly back down
the hill towards Franklin. The con
ductor and brakemen were with the
engine and the forepart of the train.
The runaway train increased Its
speed until It reached about 50 or 00
miles per hour. On It Hew past AVhlt
ney and over the trestle works north
of Franklin. Just at this time the
night passenger train reached Frank
lin from the south with Superintend
ent Thatcher on board. Upon step
ping to the platform, he, with others,
observed the lights on the rear part of
the train coming towards them from
the north. The grade being upward
from the trestle work the detached
train, slackned Its speed and finally
stopped when within a few steps of
the Franklin depot. As it did so two
men came out on the rear end of the
car within hearing distance of the
passengers who were standing on the
platform at Franklin. One of them
addressing his companion asked,
j. "What place is this IsV" Second man
W"I don't know". First man-"Dld
you ever hear of such d d people to
run trains as these Mormons; arc dur
ing the daytime they have been poking
like along snails 10 or 12 miles an hour,
and just as soon as night comes they
turn themselves loose at the rate of
GO miles per hour." This conversa
tion took the superintendent and
others over to them, who quickly took
in thcsltuatlon. When explained, the
passengers were nearly scared to
death, coming down the hill at break
neck speed and no guard at the
brakes and not any of the passengers
knew they were traveling backwards,
brought about evidently by their
Indulgence. Congratulations were In
order. Shortly after, the engine from
Preston arrived and returned with
her runaway cargo. "Where Ignor
ance Is bliss, It Is folly to bo wise."

A BENEFACTOR.
Much has been said within tho past
few months about the visit of Adolph
Lorcnz, the famous Viennese surgeon,
to this country, who was called here
by the Armours of Chicago to perforin
an operation upon their little daugh
ter, who had a congenital dislocation.
In the past cures havesomctlmcsbccn
achieved by a thigh being cut open to
the bone, the hip socket hollowed out
and the bone fitted In. Tho famous
physician effects cures without the
use of the knife. The following is an
abstract from his own words regarding
what he did for Lolita Armour:
"The operation consisted In drawing
the child's leg down so that the femur
(hip bone) came below the socket of
the hip, Into whielAlt ought normal
ly to lit; then It was pressed into
place and incased In plaster of Paris
from the hip down to the knee cap.
The cast will likely remain for six
months. The patient Will not, how
ever, bo conllncd to her bed that
length of time."
The performance of this operation
has created much comment. Tho
Armours being extremely wealthy
paid tho eminent surgeon twenty
thousand dollars for his services. Yet
that ho Is a large hearted man is evi
denced by the fact that he has volun
teered his services to visit several
American cities and operate upon pa
tients without any remuneration.
Thrills of hope have gone through the
hearts of many cripples and a num
ber have been opcratcd'upon success
fully. Parents have crowded around
him with their crippled children, beg
ging for his assistance. The crip
pled and maimed have como In all
shapes and forms for assistance.
Many who have passed the age when
a cure Is possible hnvc begged him
merely to touch thcin, having faith
that they might be healed. Such is
the eager faith In humanity in tho
possibility of healing. The point to
be well observed Is 'this: A suigcon
making a round trip of ten thousand
miles, while It is true he received a
large compensation for time, services
and travel, yet he loves his fcllowman
to the extent that lie wHl devote his
ability and clforts free for the healing
and uplifting of the unfortunate ones.
What a lesson this should be to all.
This noted surgeon cannot help but
prosper, for "he that glvcth to tho
poor lendeth to the Lord." The never
dying blessings and prayers of those
allllctcd ones who have gained relief
will ever ascend In his behalf. And
If there Is cfllclcncy In reward of merit
Adolph Lorcnz will be remembered.
Does Not Flatter Himself.
Herbert Spencer Is quoted as saying
that ho has no illusions as to tho popu
larity of philosophy. "I think It prob
able that If you would ask nlnety-nlno
out of a hundred people whether they
would dally tako a spoonful of cod
liver oil or read a chapter of my 'Prin
ciples of Psychology,' they would pre
fer tho cod liver oil," ho said. Tho
phllosophor has again declared that
he Is broken by tho burden of years
and has laid his pon down forover as
far as any largo work Is concerned.
A Profitable Exchange.
There are rnoro ways than one of
earning a living. nidlng In a steam
railway could not bo called an ardu
ous way, yet It is ono that might with
Ingenuity produce a modest Incomo
In a certain Spanish, colony away
down In tho south. The peseta Is
hero tho current coin; It looks liko a
franc, but Its value Is a varlablo one,
that may bo anything from 14 cents to
20 cents. It happens Just now to bo
only 14 cents, so tho lucky foreigner
gots a largo amount of coin when he
buys change But tho government
for some reason or another think It
nocessary to koep a standard value;
nnd In tho steam railway tho pesota
Is still worth 20 cents, whatever Ha
value elsowhoro. So tho traveler who
pays for a 2-cent tram ticket with a
peseta receives 18 cents change and
leaves tho tram richer than ho en
tered it.
THE ESTEY .PIANO
Is leading everything. For exquis
ite tone and general workmanship
It cannot bo surpassed. Tho action
never wearies the . i .yei This great
piano Is being used by leading musi
cians all over tho United States .Wo
could give testimonials by the score;
but as testimonials can be bought and
most people tako no stock In them, w c
have never used them In making sales.
Wo have never asked a musician for a
testimonial on any Instrument we
carry. The wonderful Newman Organ
leads for patented Improvements. Wo
say to tho public If you wish advice
from musicians boforo buylntr, It Is
safer to rely onourmuslclans at home,
as we can prove that somo Salt Lako
musicians havo recommended several
different makes of pianos. Harris

G W ROBINSON DEAD
Word was received from Los Angeles
yesterday of the death of Mr. George
Robinson of tho ilrm of Robinson
Bros. Mr. ltoblnson went to Cali
fornia about a month ago, where he
hoped to regain his health but It
seems that the disease had too great a
hold upon his system. Tho body will
be brought here for burial and should
reach hero tomorrow. Tho time of
the funeral has not yet been an
nounced. Mr. ltoblnson was born In Grants
vllle, Tooclo county, Utah, about
thlrty-thrco years ago and comes from
the Edward ltoblnson stock. Ills
mother died wheh he was a babe and
his early life was spent with relatives
at American Fork, Pinto and Hunt
ington. AVhcn 15 or 10 years of ago ho
became dissatisfied with farm life and
rode on horseback to GrantsvMlo and
engaged In business there with a rela
tive. This proved unsatisfactory and
ho went to Ogden, where he engaged
at manual labor for a time. While at
this place he ran short of money and
It Is related that rather than go back
to his relatives or ask forald ho lived
for a week on three loaves of bread.
From Ogden he went to Salt Lake
City with the Idea of making prepara
tion to go to California, but fell In
with II. M. Dcsky, where his capacity
for business brought him tho foreman
ship of the establishment. Whilo
there ho married Miss Lamoreaux of
this city and his health falling shortly
after ho came to Logan and engaged
In business. His rise was rapid and at
this time the ltoblnson Pros.' estab
lishment Is one of the leading business
houses of the city. His father was
John ltoblnson and grandfather Ed
ward Robinson. Edward ltoblnson at
the time of his death a few years ago
was the oldest railway employee in the
world, having run tho first train from
Manchester to Liverpool, England.
POULTRY BUSINESS.
Professor Drydcn has this to say
about the poultry business in Utah:
Better methods of feeding and man
agement would easily add 25 per cent
to the value of tho poultry products.
The last census estimated tho aver
age yield per year at svcnty-llvc eggs
per hen. We llnd no dllllculty at the
experiment station, with an average
flock of hens, In getting a yield of 150
eggs per hen. With extra breeding
wo have had them avcrago over 200
eggs. But leaving breeding out of the
question, by killing off the old hens
and giving tho layers extra care and
feed they can be made to average 150
eggs per year per fowl, or Just double
the yield that the census says the
hens of Utah produced in 1899. In
the first place, on the average farm,
there is no consideration shown for
tho comfort of the fowls. Is is useless
to talk to a man about the right way
to feed fowls unless ho is willing to
give them at least the same care In
regard to housing that he gives to his
live stock. In regard to feeding, there
Is an Ignorance that is profound among
fanners In general as to what food or
foods the hen requires for profitable
egg production. An egg Is made up
of certain materials, and the hen
must be fed those materials, other
wise where are the eggs to come from?
We might as well look for llgs on a
Scotch thistle tree as to look for eggs
from the food that the average hen
gets in winter.
To sum up: Utah poultry products
have a value of about one million dol
lars a year, and the amount Is Increas
ing at a rapid rate. Only the hay
crop, the wheat crop, the wool and
live stock and the dairy products ex
ceeds tho value of the poultry pro
ducts. The market Is unlimited and
prices are good. This State is well
adapted to the production of poultry
and eggs. Without Increasing the
number of fowls in the State tho pro
duct could In doubled by Improve
ment along three lines; first, by breed
ing a selection of layers; second, by
renewing the flock every year, or at
most every two years, and, third,
by better methods of feed and management.
Swiss Diplomat Well Liked.
Diplomatic circles In Washington
will feel a distinct loss In tho rotlro
mont of M. Pfoda, Swiss minister. Ho
Is ono of the few foreigners to retain
their native customs In tho legations.
On all fonnnl occasions his guests
wore greeted with baskets of most
beautiful artificial flowers, tho ware
used on the tablo was exclusively
Swiss, as wore tho dishes served. Tho
l'lodas never gave up their peculiar
window draperies and overy Christmas
they had a tree, from which overy
.wlss resident In Washington got o
present brougnt from the little Euro
loan republic.
ODD CALL FOR DOCTOR.
Routed Out of Bed to Take Supper
With Patient
'Yes wo doctors hnvo all sorts of
queer calls," said n South Twelfth
street physician to a Philadelphia
Hocord reporter, "and wo get sort of
schooled to tnko everything as a mat
ter of course Sometimes, though, It's
hard. For Instance, one night last
week, after I had been In bed and
asleep for about thrco hours, my
night bell rnng, ami thero was a mes
sago from a rich patient of mlno who
wanted to sco mo nt once, it was
then 2 o'clock In tho morning. When
I reached his apartments In the fash
lonatilo hotel whero ho lives, 1 found
him sitting in his dressing gown,
smoking a cigar. 'Whnt'B tho mat
ter?' I asked. 'Aro you sick7' 'No,
I'm nil right,' he said. 'I'm just lone
ly; that's all.' Well, thnt mado mo
mad. 'What tho deuco do you mean
by gottlng mo out of bed nt this
hourT I demanded. 'Don't you know
my chargo for a night cnll Is $10?'
'Tutl Tut!' ho said, 'don't talk nbout
that. I Just got back fro'm Now York
at midnight, nnd I'm hungry. I don't
want to eat alone, nnd I sent for you
to tnko supper with me. I want somo
ono to tnlkjto and I Just happened to
think of you. Thero's tho menu.
Order up n good, squnro meal. I'm
hungry.' I looked at him to mako
sure that ho wob In his sobor senses.
Ho didn't seem llko a. man who had
beon drinking. Thero was nothing
for mo to do but order the, supper,
which I did. I nto my Bharo,-too, but
fco'll get a good Btlff bill for It."
KEEPING 8HEEP IN AUSTRALIA.
Artificial Feeding of Flocks Cost
Breeders a Large Sum.
Tho artificial feeding of sheep In nn
Australian drouth, according to tho
Country (Jcntlcman, has almost as
sumod the dignity of a fino art. In
many a squatter's run tho stock aro
dopondont on what Is given them, nnd
the most approved ration appears to
be half a pound of wheat and half a
pound of hay per day fed In tho fore
noon. If possible, with a little scrub
for them in tho afternoon for them to
munch over. Tho distribution Is done
from spring carts, tho grain being
shoveled out, ovor as wldo an area as
possible. Tho animals pick it up, llko
poultry In a yard, tho stuff being al
ways sproad on hard ground, as it fs
rojectod. If mixed with the soil. Abund
ance of" rock salt Is strewn about tho
paddocks, and wntor is also artificially
supplied, whero other has failed. As
to. cost, that Is somothlng liko twelvo
cents n week, which soon mounts up
whero scores of thousands go to con
stitute a single flock.
Possible Only In England.
A vlllngo clergyman was oxamlnlng
his Sunday -school children In Scrip
ture, nnd tho text, "The eaglo flutter
eth over her young," camo up for elu
cidation. "Hove any of you soen jan
eagle?" asked the vicar.
Thore was a silence for a while,
until ono llttlo mite vonturod to put up
her hand.
"And whore did you see an eaglo?"
"Blackpool," replied tho child.
"That's right," acknowledged tho vi
car, thinking, perhaps, that at Black
poolwhere he had nover beon thore
was a zoological garden. "How did
you know it was an eagle?"
No answer.
"Did anyone tell you that it was an
eagle?"
Again a negatlvo shake.
"Como, how did you know?"
"Please, sir, .tftero was a lot of sho
gulls, so I thought thero must bo a
hegull, too." Stray Stories.
Sound Reasoning.
It has been said of a southern
dnrky that he has not always a clear
idea as to proporty rights, but on
omo points it appears that ho is not
in tho least hazy.
As an old colored man In tho days
"befo" de wah" was given ono of his
tnasty's cast-off hats, which ho woro
with great pride. Ono Sunday his
master met him coming homo from a
camp meeting In a pouring rain, baro
headed and holding his hat under his
coat. Latei; on his mastor questioned
him jocosoly.
"Why didn't you wear your hat,
Jerry? Did you feol tho noed of cool
ing your head?"
"You seo it's liko dls, snh," respond
ed Jerry. "My head is yours, but my
hat Is mlno, and nachelly I feels llko
tnking enro of it, snh."
Oppose Short College Couree.
Considerable criticism has grcoted
a proposal made by President Butler
of Calumbia university that tho course
for tho degree of B. A. shall bo short
ened from four to two years and that
tho four-year courso shall lead to a
master's doRreo. Ono critic expresses
himself thus: "It Is a proposal which,
if adopted, would lead to far-reaching
end perhaps dangerous changes In our
educational standards. It certainly
cannot bo claimed thnt tho chango
would result In an olovation of tho
baccalaureato otandard; it would, or
so it soems to ono outside tho domain
oJ pedagogy, almost surely result In
lowering a standard which 1b already
bo low as to mean almost nothing."
"CORIANTON"
The Corianton people certainly have
no complaint at tho reception accord
ed them by thopeoplcorLogan, Each
of the thrco nights and tho matlnco
the house was packed to Its utmost
capacity.
Altogether the presentation was a
great success. Some of the actors did
exceedingly well, and were highly com
mended. Mr. Ethler as Corianton
was very good. In voice and carriage
he seems particularly well lifted for
the character he represents. Wo be
lieve with a little more experience he
will "do" the part fully as well or bet
ter than Mr. Haworth.
Mr. Seorle made a great hit as Sean
turn. Misinterpretation of tho part
made ono feci like he was really In the
presence of tho great Zoranilto lead
er. T. II. Cutler, as Alma, did very well,
acquitting himself with great credit.
Mr. Cutler gives promise of becoming
an actor of no mean ability.
Moses Johnson as Korlhor had a
most difficult part. As tho principal
character In the great climax at the
last of the first act, he did superbly.
He Is certainly at home in tho part
given him.
Mr. Pcrclval as Shlblon, was an Ideal
character, and did tho part much bet
tcrthan It was done InthollrstCorlan
ton. But It was to Miss Boycr In her
rendition of tho character of Rella
that the sympathy of tho whole people
went out, as was evidenced by tho
generous applause sho received. Miss
Boycr was perfect In her part as
Bella.
Wo are proud of tho local pcoplo
In the cast, and believe they aro fully
equal to the eastern people In tho parts
assigned to them, and with a few
months experience should excel them.
The future successes of Miss Boycr,
Mr. Johnson, Mr. Ethler, Mr. Cutler
and Ariel Cardon will be watched with
Interest.
Few dramatic contributions have
received such universal commenda
tion as has marked the courso travers
ed by the sterling romance, "Richard
Carvel;" and fewer plays havo weath
ered tho sea of criticism piore success
fully. Many projects are launched
upon the dramatic ocean that in a
brief period become vcritablo derelicts,
which not only prove a menace to tho
progress of worthy and legitimate en
terprises, but undermine public con
fidence and esteem. With "Richard
Carvel" the public receives ono of tho
best dramatic compositions of recent
years, as presented by that clever
young actor, Andrew Robson, and ills
most excellent company. The play Is
Invested with a wealth of magnificent
scenery, costumes and accessories that
picture a worthy environment for tho
action. The production will bo pre
sented at the Thatcher Opera House
Wednesday night of this week.
The Improvement Era, Salt Lake
City, for Jan., contains the second ar

" 'Mormon' Doetrlno of Deity," one of
strongest papers ever written on tills

Catholic "philosophical" proofs on tho
form and nature of God. Tho thrill

A report Issued by the British labor
department on workmen's co-operative
societies Is quite Interesting. It
shows the wonderful growth of that
movement. Between 1874 and 1899
the recorded membership of all classes
of co-opcratlvo societies Incrcasdcd
from 403,010 to 1,081,312, and their
total yearly transactions Increased
from 75 to 340 millions of dollars. Of
the 82,000 persons employed by thoco
opcratlvesoclctles making returns, 47,
000 aro engaged In tho'buslncss of dis
tributing goods, while 25,000 more aro
employed by tho distributive societies
In their factories. There aro however
only 3,800 poisons who aro co-operators
In the sense of being capitalist
and workman combined.
