I. association presented Rebeccas Triumph, to a crowded house. The performance was enjoyed very much by all present apd we are all agreed in the opinion that it was the best amateur production ever witnessed inMendon. Miss Edith Hughes took the role of Rebecca, and surprised everybody with her good work. Miss Mamie Sorensen, as Clarissa Codman, looked the real thing. Miss Lizzie Stumpf, in the character of Gyp, the colored servant, provoked much laughter. The girls of the cooking class were pretty and their singing and acting splendid. We trust the girls will see their way clear to entertain us again. The spirit of improvement is operating upon some of our citizens andas-Axesij- lt, a few new fences are being built. If more of bur leading, men could be moved by this goood spirit Bishop Birds long cherished hope of fencing the public square would be realized. Mr. James Bird ,who has suffered several months with blood poisoning, is almost well again. David Rowe, our genial milkman, says he will take a layoff and go to conference in April. Our townsman, James II. Hill, proposes to build a large fish Jim pond near town. says that trout suit his palate, and he will stock this pond with the speckled beauties. President William II. Maughan and his brother John, spoke to us in ward meeting Sunday afternoon. Many good and appropriate instructions were given. The general health of the people of Mendon is good, and we are as bsuy as bees. Respectfully, , -- TYBURTIS. Clarkston Clippings Clarkston, March 20. After a much appreciated visit from Jupiter Pluvius our farms present a fine appearance. Another piece of good news is that the people of Clarkston have united in favor of having our new meeting house face the east, and will be a unit in pushing the good work. Our Relief Society had the time of its life in the reunion on the 17th, with two sessions rolled into one, two programs, everything double except the eyesight of the participants. A peddler recently visited our burg and sold endless numbers of -- Phil. ladies wrappers at sixty cents each; a snap. But presently the ladies awakened to the fact that nearly every woman in town had wrappers of the same kind, and not one in a dozen fit. A number of visitors came to Clarkston1 last week for seed grain, for which they paid one dollar a bushel. Mr. Isaac Benson and family arrived in the midst of the heavy rainstorm on Sunday on a visit to friends. The roads are bad once more, but the land has had a soaking to make it rejoice. Yours, SANKO.

One in particular, we learned afterward, had been picked upon by Foote, in his scrutiny of the party from the shelter of the willowsas a man 'who would be a formidable antagonist providing he had come, as the outlaw suspected, to effect a capture. It happened that this man was the very kind of one who would have been chosen to go upon such a capturing expedition, and the fact that Foote had singled him as a dangerous comer to his hiding place showed how well he was able to judge character. The pilot advsed us to leave our guns on the boat and let it be seen that we were all unarmed, wait there and he would go and explain to Foote. lie was gone fully half an hour and said afterward that when he came upon him Foote held him covered with a rifle until the pilot partially laughed him out of his suspicions and urged him to join our party. The pilot came back alone, but after another wait of a few minutes the willows parted a few feet away and Foote emerged. He carried his rifle cocked and rest- ing across his left arm. while his right hand held the weapon in position for instant use, the trigger finally ready for action.There was a smile on the face of the outlaw, hut it was one upon a double interpretation. It said : I am here to meet you either as friend or foe. Comaraderie between men in the wilds comes easily. We were soon on good terms with the outlaw and he invited us to his cabin laid down his own gun and busi-himself as a host. d six months previously Phil Foote and a woman, while the opening dance of the elegant newhotel at the mountain spa was in progress, had robbed the guests of the Colorado hotel at d of the jewels and Springs purses they had left behind--i- n their rooms while engaged in the festivities in the ballrOom. They had escaped into Utah with their booty, and after realizing on the gems Phil, in true outlaw form, had proceeded to lose the spoils at a gambling table at Salt Lake Sonip Glen-woo- City.

The boat proceeded around the crescent-shapeface of the bottom to the lower end, where a landing was to be made.

We madd the landing, but still the fire of the first welcoming shots failed to appear.

Here Foote built him a cabin in the shelter of the willows and the timber of the bottom. He had macie an occasional foraging trip to ranches far above aud meager-l- y outfitted himself with cooking" paraphernalia to the extent of broken parts of a stove to build around some mud walls, a coffee pot, skillet and tin cup. For bedding he had some skins and a blanket or two. He managed to five off the country, killed an occasional deer or mountain sheep that found its way to the bottom or patching a fish from the river now and then. We had our cooking Outfit and supplies. A trip to the boat furnished coffee, sugar, canned milk and vegetables. Foote had some venison, so we all turned in and helped get up something of a feast. Foote enjoyed it, for his food supply was extremely low. A new Marshal had just been appointed in Utah largely on the promise that be would clear the territory of outlaws, and Foote had not ventured from hiding for several weeks. - It was this new Marshal that he suspected one of our party of being and of coming under cover of an exploraton to trap him. . The writer was familiar with the news and the men of the WeRt. He knew many men that Foote knew and of many incidents in which the outlaw had figured; he knew friends Foote had made in his precriminal days friends made when the then outlaw wa the chief peace officer of a Colorado mining camp, and a good one, too. There was soon a running exchange of reminiscences between us. Foote began to talk of discoveries he had made and incidents that had brought him into the newspa-perHe was particularly proud of his discovery and exploration of a natural cave in the Glenwood section. It ended by Foote bring ing to light a scrapbook containing among others a large number of clippings of newspaper of his exploits and the robof the Colorado hotel. , bery Foote pointed these out with something of pride; Tiis face flushed once tfhen .he called attention to some reference to the woman, Dollie, made in them, but there was evidence of pride in the notoriety it exploit and the How brought. proud he was "of the record could be judged by the fact that he had brought the scrapbook into the wilderness with him at no small sacrifice. One does not usually consider an outlaw as a patron of the press clipping bureaus. , s. We all slept in the Foote cabin that night, spreading our - blan kets on the dirt floor. It was the first night for a week that we of the Powell had slept under a roof and we enjoyed the novelty. Foot$ had been hungry for company of mankind and after the suspicion wore off. was pleased to have us there. Next morning he helped us with some repairs on the boat, taking good care all the time we did not spring any trick on him when leaving time came, but outwardly displaying the most jovial spirit when submitting to the camera. We were three weeks in ' the canyon and on the return trip again slept in the Foote cabin. It was tacitly understood that when we reached the outside we were to respect the secret of. the outlaw. Not a word of his pres ence did one of us - niter. The honor of the wilds, of the woods, is its own. The world not of it knows not.

There was something of a chase, but the men of law did nota feel warranted in taking the chances that the outlaw, took in shooting the cataracts, facing death every moment of the flight on his crude bark to safety.
