This year the farmers were enriched by thousands of dollars as proceeds from the sale of sugar beets. There are several Interesting char-- , acters In llnrriaville. I called upon Pleasant Green Taylor, who Is the oldest resident of this place. Fifty years ago he took up the farm upon which he Is now living. At that time there was not a house between his home and Willow creek. During the time of the Indian troubles Mr. Taylor played a very prominent part. For eleven years he was captain of the minute men In Ogden City. There Is no danger of race suicide in the Taylor family. Thlrty-al- x children called him father. Twenty-eigof this number are living at the present time. lie has three hundred ht and twenty-eiggrandchildren and great grandchildren. From the number of Taylors here the town might well be called Taylorville Instead of Ilarrls-vlllht e. For about two hours I listened to Charles B. Hancock tell the story of his life. He la a very Interesting conversationalist Mr. Hancock Is 80 years of age, but appears to be much younger. . He read without glasses several stansus from different poems he had written. He Is one of the very few surviving members of the famous Mormon battalion. The story of his life la in part the story of the unparalleled march of the pioneers across trackless plains to the Mecca of their hopes. In his veins flows the blood of the John earliest American patriots. Hancock, president of the continental congress and first signer of the Declaration of Independence, was his third cousin. On his mothers side he Is third cousin to Samuel Adams, 'another member of the continental congress and likewise a signer of the Declaration of Independence. He Is proud of his lineage and Is Just as loyal to our country as were his patriot sires. He showed me a number of relics of revolutionary times, one of which was a pitchfork used by his great grandfather at the battle of Concord April 19, 1775. The sight of this rusted relic brought vividly to my mind the storjof the scene at Concord green the farmer minute men, armed with old flintlocks, pitchforks, scythes and whatever else might serve as means of defense, standing In tense attitude as if carved from stone awaiting the attack of the British regulars. I seemed to heRr Pitcairns command, "Fire!" then the rattle of musketry, and as the roar died away to faintest echoes I thought of the sixteen farmer patriots who gave their life's blood that day In the cause of liberty. More than a hundred years have passed and yet the vibrations of that shot have not died away. Whenever tyranny nnd oppression raise their evil hands that round comes reverberating out of the past, and they hesitate and turn pale. Yes, verily, that shot was heard around the world." As I looked at this grey haired pioneer, who was holding reverently his old Mexican war musket, the thought came home with more force, and you are a descendant of those Concord two-tln- ed yeomen. In 1847, when Brigham Young asked for volunteers to form a Mormon battalion, Hancock was the first man to say, 'Til go for one. He was a member of CapL Jefferson Hunt's company, who, several years later, was the first settler of Huntsville. He continued with the battalion until the close of the war and endured the hardships Incident to that memorable trip. When he came into Utah with the battalion, the war being over, he was sent south by Brigham Young to settle In Utah county. He located at whRt la now called Payaon. The settlers very nearly starved to death the first few years, and as the Indians were on the warpath the lot of these hardy patriots was not cast In pleasant places. Mr. Hancock has a large scar on the back of his head received from a shot while In battle with the Indians. W. H. H. ' 125 A. W.

Dunne as general attorney of the Southern Pacific was announced yesterday by W. F. Herrin, the railroad companys chief counsel. For some years Mr. Dunne has been employed by the railroad In most of its Important cases, and now It has been finally decided to retain him permanently as a member of the legal staff, says the San Francisco Examiner. Mr. Herrin stated that whereas the legal business of the company In the past ten years has been growing steadily the staff of lawyers has not been Increased in proportion. The appointment of Mr. Dunne, therefore, comes as a natural consequence of bis long and close connection with the company. When Interviewed, Mr. Dunne spoke quite openly of his appointment He said: It Is the logical result of my long connection with the legal affairs of the Southern Pacific company that I should le tendered the appointment of general attorney of the company. 'For the past five years I have handled weighty business for Mr. Herrin. I have tried many damage cases In the courts of the state, have prepared and presented arguments before the supreme court, have represented the company before the Interstate commerce commission, and, in fact, have devoted the greater part of my time to the railroad's business. Of late that business has increased very materially and It Is felt there is need of a general attorney. So Mr. Herrin has tendered me the appointment and I have accept- n Washington. Hen-fiel- d, .

Here scientific men will have their first opportunity to Investigate. polar phenomena under comfortable conditions and at small expense. In summer they will be engaged chiefly with geological and biological researches, while meteorological, magnetic and other studies fitting the time will occupy them in winter. The experts in natural history who will occupy the station next summer will be the geologist Westergren, the entomologist Haglund, the botanist Roman and an expert in forestry. The money to build the station was contributed by a wealthy man of Stockholm, and funds for Its maintenance have been supplied by other private subscriptions. The station is on the threshold of Lapland, which is still almost unknown because it has been so difficult to reach it with supplies adequate for a long Journey. The railroad and station will facilitate the exploration of thin region. The study of Its geology promises particularly rich results, for there Is little doubt that the bleak surface of Luplund conceals large mineral wealth.

Dr. Bourne, former bishop of Southwark, was enthroned today as Roman Catholic archbishop In Westminster cathedral with much stately ceremony. The cathedral was filled to Its capacity with church dignitaries whose robes of office lent gorgeousness to the picture. The fine marble Inlaid throne, a memorial of the late Cardinal Vaughn, was used for the ceremony. The procession which preceded the bishop to the altar took twenty minutes to pass up the nave. Archbishop Bourne Is the fourth prelate to occupy the archleplscopal throne of Westminster since the Catholic hierarchy in England was restored In 1850, by the appointment of Cardinal Wlseipan, who was followed in turn by Cardinals Manning and Vaughn. Archbishop Bourne Is In his forty-thir- d year, having been born at Clap-haon March 23, 1861. He was educated at St. CuthberVs college, Uahaw, St Edmund's college, Ware.SL Sulplice, In Paris, and finally at Louvain university. Ordained priest in 1884, he first worked at Blackheatb and afterwards at Mortluke, West Grinstead, and Sussex. At the latter place he established aSemlnary, and In 1889 he was appointed rector of the Southwark diocesan seminary, near Guilford. In 1895 he was named domestic prelate to Pope Leo XIII. On May 1, 1893, Cardinal Vaughn consecrated him titular bishop coadjutor to the bishop of Southwark, and thus Dr. Bourne, when quite a young man, was called to rule over the vast diocese in which he had worked throughout his priesthood.
