Porcupine had been very bad Indian prior to tUi,liav,ng served a term in the guard house at the posit for stealing. At the appointed time and place, the place being Walker Lake. Nevada, Indians were assembled from virions nations, each tribe speaking his own dialect, and not being able to understand his neigh-bors As n i.' lit approached, they saw a personage coming from the eat,and the Indians were satisfied from his appear-ance that he was indeed the Christ; and they saw him surrounded with a brigh liiht As he approached, the halo of light about his head shone brillian'lv and made him appear to the untutored eyes of the savage, preemintly grand. Durin; his stay at this time he said not a word, and after remaining with them a short time he left them, 110 one knew how or when. The next day he again appeared and spoke to litem all day long, and in such a language that each one ol the different trii.es of Indians understood Ins meaning peifectly. He instructed the Indians and gave them a set of com-mandments and appointed Porcupine as one of his disciples to go lorth and preach his savings to all people, and instructed him not to add to or take Iro n what he had lieirJ. It was this that niv uncle wrote me.and then I went ' up north to see about it. Tho Indian Christ. Dr. John Kig of Manti is I ntervi'wed.

There have" been neveral statements published in the Utah Press about an ap-pearance to the In Jians, in Neva 1.1, ol a peison claiming to he Jesus Christ, the son of G id. The last was an ac-count in the Silt Lake Herat I about 6th. ult. of an interview between the officers and others U Futt Custor with one Porcupine, which was as follows: The following h.tve appeared In the public journal in the lurm ot pie rii,alchi..: KortCtiiter, M,ml., July , Kailythi morning a small iuad 'if Cheyenne Indians appeared on the hill bark of rorl Cu.ler and seruwoid they wanted J to come in.

' Why, I think they are all true. I believe Poicupine to be an inspired man of Ood;"and here the" doctor grew earn-est. "Why Porcupine was only an ignor-ant Indian, a very ignorant man, and b id in his ignorance; and now when he talks.he uses languages that is good and becomes very eloquent. He will stand as if meditating for several minutes, and then raising his eyes and extending his arms towaids Heaven will declare with great fervor the things he has seen and heard, and knows; and declaring to the people that they must repent. Why among those Indians who aie very bad people, he has cause 1 them to throw away their weapon and cease from their evil practices. It is not the Indians alone, but also many while people be-lieve him." "With what Indians was he, when you met him.doctof?"

Christ told the white people when they p'lt Him to death He would come a?an. not to them first, but to the Indian nrttions whoe red child-ren, being poor and simple minded, would hear and beiieve Him. He commanded them to go forth and preach His doctrine, but to add nothing to it.

'No, I have not, but I h.tve seen Por-cupine himself, I have been clear up into ldah in order to see him, and hear what he had to say." 1 low did you learn ol his being there if you have not seen the accounts in nsnprt?" "Well, mv uncle, who was one of a party of Indians who went to see the Saviour, wrote to me to come up irto Idaho, and see him, before he went back home, and also to see Porcupine, and I went." "Well Poctor, I have come to ask vou a few questions about this m.uter. and if yon will Rive me a statement ol what you know about it. you will oblige me." "All right," said the doctor, and he proceeded. A year ago last June, an Indian of the Sioux Nation named Oscar, had a dream that Christ had come on the earth, and he was to get the Indians and go out into Nevada and see him at a certain time and place. He was quite startled at this dream, but did not make any effort to go on his mission. Two nilihts after he had the same dream, and th s impressed itself on his mind, so much that he told it to others of his tribe, and died to cet them to go; but thev would not listen to him. Again the third time he had the dream two days latter and this time he succeeded in making the India.n believe him, and members of his tribe started on their piliimage. Scores of Indians, Cheyennes, Crows, and from manv other ttibes.join-e- d them and they iourned as best thev could to their destination, suffering manv privations and hardships while in route.

Rollo Jones, of Richfield, ar-rived in Ephraim this morning, and having heard that the gentleman had captured Tascott, the murderer, it' Richfield, a Register reporter immediately began to interview him. It appears that Tascott arrived in Richfield on Friday evening, Aug., 8th, and Mr. Jones met him. The man alleged that he was just from Pioche where he had been working in the mines. Mr. Jones, who is a detective, noticed that his hands were soft and white, hence, he thought, not the kind that was accustomed to hard work. This caused a further investigation which led Mr. Jones to think that ht had detected the murderer. The next morning, while the man was yet ai the table Mr. Jones went in and 4rtiMnr Ki revolver arrested him, The man told Jones to shoot, but he would not. As soon as he was arreted an examination was made which result-ed in disclosing the fact that the man answered the discription of Vm. H. Tascott, who killed Amas J. Sncll, of Chicago, Feb. 8, 1888; even to the scars on both elbows and the right knee.

Being of a light and inflam-ibl- e nature there was really no op-portunity to do anything before the disaster was complete. The losses itemized were to Mr. F.rickson, beside his corrals, etc., two tons of hay, 800 ft. of lumber and a half grown pig; while that of Mr. Rasmusson, besides the sheds, etc., was three or four tons of hay. The entire loss is estimated at be-tween $150 and $200. The cause is ascribed as is too often true in such cases too much small boy and matches. There was no insurance, so the loss, small as the estimate sounds, hardly upon the in- - may press very dividuals who are the lossers. , Start a subscription, of a quar-- t ter or half dollar, to five, from the t lucky ones who did not have a fire, I will take the bitterness out of the loss for the unfortunates who did, and it never be teit oy tne uonatoi.

Mr. Kennith C. Kerr, special agent Eleventh United States census for compiling the mining statistics of Utah territory, has been making the Continental his headquarters in this city. Mr. Kerr for many years has been connected 'with the United States geological corps, and is well quali-fied for the responsible position to which he is assigned. He was great-ly impressed with the natural beauty pies of this stone as seen in the facine Samples oAwthe white oolite stone, of which TfTie Manti temple ! and the Goldsmith building, of this j city, are standing monuments. It is admirably adapted for monu- - ments.and some fine specimens are to be seen in the Manti cemetery. E. L.

A new dis-covery in building stone, thatprom- - ises well, is a beautiful red sandstone that is now being worked by Samuel W. Parry & Co., located north of Moroni. The stone is found loose on the surfacerand makes very good foundations for buildings. It has been used for a number of years at Nephi for building purposes. Mr. Kerr will go to Wasatch thii morning to examine the quarries from which the granite" IS "taken to construct the Salt Lake temple. Hi expects to be ordered back to Wash-ington in about three weeks, and will leave Utah with feelings of re-gret, as he has met with the pleas-ante-associations during his official duties.

' The Climax Mill, at Ephraim, was started up on Saturday last, and a Register reporter was on the ground to witness the successful working of the machinery in its first run. It seemed to be perfect in every part; and worked with smooth-ness. ' Mr. Louis Becker, lessee of the MaHtl Holier Mii,-- i present. Ht is a thorough .and practical mill-wright, and after a careful inspec-tion, reported to the conpany, who own the mill, . to the effect that it was perfect in every detail. In fact, Mr. Pecker said to one of the company who was present, that it was the most complete mill in the county, and that the machan-ica- l work was perfect. This was.of coprse.very gratifying to Mr. Ole Larson, who is the con-tractor and builder. It may not be out of place to say in this con-nection that Mr. Larson is a citizen of long standing in Ephraim, having come to the place with the first s, in '57, then a mere infant. "His opportunities for theoretical education hjye been very meager indeed, but the extent of practical knowledge and talent in that line, that is his, may best be known when the mass of complicated machinery employed in the Climax mill, is seen running as smoothly as clock-work, and he the master builder. CJreat judgement has been dis-played by the gentleman in every part of the work, from the selection of the site, to the completion and Selling ill motion tot; iiiaiiiiui.. Mr. Larson has had the entire man-agement of the undertaking from the cutting of the timbers to its com-pletion. Speaking of the site; Mr. Becker said it gives the mill the best water power in the county, and an agent, of Barnard & Lee, the company of whom the machinery was purchased, says it is the best water power he has seen from Snake River in Idaho, to Mexico. There is some talk of building an elevator adjoining the mill. The water power is sufficient to serve both, even if the elevator should ex-ceed 35,000 bushels capacity, which in the size now spoken off. Mr. Larson says he has a scheme per-fected for using the same power for both, and that the miller will be able to sit in the mill and raise wheat to any bin, or take wheat from them with ease. This latter item is a contrivance of his own, and as he explained it to the gentlemen present, seemed very feasible in deed. - Ephraim is to be congratulated on the ownership of the mill, the enterprise of the company who put up the cash, and the fine ability oi the master builder.
