thursday night next, and We are
more than pleased to be able to state
not only that the effort will be one oil

Inc managers have been driven to
considerable expense which our cili-
zens-if they reslly hope for the
establishment of lie drama-will
have to make it their duty to return.
A prominent feature in the perform
ance is the musical department under
the leadership of Mr. Geo. Careless,
whose influence will no doubt please
those who appreciate the enormous
advantage of coed dramatic music
VIA. with new scenery, new music,
and, above all, Few actors and ac-

Niger Dances.

Of late there hsys Teen in arc
about Commercial street several 10
called niger dances. They are
called negro dances not because Of
thei: being attended exclusively by
eolored people, nor because Of there
oeing a uredominance of these pee
pie, but because they sre the great
central figures around whom the rest
are grouped, aud because they
are locked upon with q species
OF admiration. At the % dances
white girls aud white men
congregate with the c0l0red the
FOR neT are certainly not respectable,
and therefore their presence is a sort
OF reflection upon the genuine Eth
opian. at these dances the most
tlihy scenes are enacted, the white
girls pTeterring negro men, and neg o
girls prelerring whits men. While
they a,a low, and should be abated
on general principles, there is still a
worse feature, which is the presence
OF young white boys, and etill
younger white girls, neither OF whom
have been long in their teens, and
neither being able TO take care of
themselves or responsible for what
they do. II will be necessary to give !
one instance only. a few evenings
ago gentleman stepped inside one
OF these dances out OF curiosity. He
bad not been there long before

The Hare and Hound Race.

The hare and hound race, poet
poned from Friday on account Of the
storm. took place yesterday afternoon
at 4 O'Clock, from the old Seventies
Hall. Messrs. Wheeler and Rogers
were the hares, who started out dres-
sed for the race. They had about two
blocks start when the pack followed.
The barea took q circuitous route,
going up City Creek Canon dis
lance, jumping the wall surrounding
the late President Brigham Young's
property in the Eighteenth Ward,
then east, and up and down a
short distance, and then home. The
hounds started little too briskly to
hold out, and soon came down to a
jog trot; it was evident also that they
were not, with perhaps one or two ex-
eeptions, as long-winded as the hares,
and could not hold SO well. At one
time, while the hounds were in the
Eighteenth Ward, the hares had
about q miles start, and kept it to
the end, coming In about ten min.
utes before the others. The hounds
made a grand squirt for home from
the top of the State Road, to see
which could get in first. Mr.. Chss.
King led the hounds on The last half
block, and came in quite a distance
ahead. The boys stood the run
pretty we'll, and a few more would
help to make others more interesting.
Quite large crowd assembled to see
the start, and there was an immense
crowd to see them come in.

DRIVING PARK.
A Good Programme for the Seasons
Opening.

The managers OF the above associa
ton nave been working on the track
Tor the last week to get it in readiness
to exercise horses on for the coming
season races. The opening race vii
probably be given on Friday Apri
9tb, if the weather permits. It is
now the intention of the managers to
offer a silver cup to the Bicycle club.
to be awarded to the man or boy that
can make five miles the quickest on
the track. or course, as there is con-
siderable difference IN the respective
abilities Of the riders, some having
been in practice longer than others,
a competent committee selected from
the members of the club to handicap
the contestants in order to give all
tRir show.
On the same day there will probably
be a double team race between road
ster teams that are not in any way
track horses, but gentlemen's buggy
horses that are used every day tor
business, or in livery.
Also a match race, between two
buggy horses. which have met on
the read, without settling which is
the fastest. Most likely "Davis."
"Countrymap," MARY Emery"
and other track horses can be in
duced to speed little for the opening
race, but as they are no. in condition
they VIII not be able TO trot to their
usual speed.
There has been a good deal of spar
ring between the owners OF some good
'half-miers, who are very anxious

owners of the horses above mentioned |
8ill have them in condition 50 as to |

Mere Canal Questions.
SALT LAKE CRY. Msrch %, 80.

SALT LAKE CITY. Msrch %, 80.
Editors Herald:
1 should like 20 ask some questions
if yon please: understand there are
several partly dug canals which are to
take the water out of the Jordan; IN
fact, enough to take out all the water.
Is this so? IF so, will the city canal,
commenced the Lass, have any prior
right to the water? Is there no liz
bility of litigation?
In the address" Of tie City Coun-
Gil We are told about enough drops"
at various points to aggregate thirty
four feet. What is the object Of these
drops? Is it for water power to run
machinery? OF are they necessary to
get into the "Ol1 Church Canal"
mentioned? Why get into said camel?
Is the church going to give it to the
city? or is the city going to buy itY
and If so, how much less will it cost TO
buy i! than to dig a new canal and
get the benefit Of this thirty-four feet
isll of water?
1t is certainly desirable to get the
canal as high as possible, TO water as
much land as possible. Are there
not two old, partly dug canals from
cottonwood to the city? What is the
difference 10 the altitude of them 3?
Which of them does the City Council
propose to use p? Who owns the land |
the old Church Canal runs through |
Will it be necessary to buy the canal
of one party and the land of others |
Ii so, may it not be cheaper to build
a nsw canal? Why did the water
never run through the canals already |
dug ? Was It because they we're not
correctly engineered. II so, have
he City Council svsiled themselves
)f any better skill than that employed
IN the other canals? If not what
guarantee have the people for the
uccess of the present undertaking?
Would the men in the City Council
,uild this canal with their own
money, in the way they now con
emplate doing with the peoples
money, providing the people will
to refund the money when
hey find themselves supplied with
7ater? There is no question about
be necessity for water, nor about the
eople being willing to vote the
Means. The only question is as to
'hetheT the way means now under
will be efiectua!, for it
ill be a serious affair to use so much
honey and make \ failure.

Grand Duchess

There was a dress rehesrsel OF this
opera last night Saturday. at the
theatre. An audience of about $50
witnessed the Efforts of the little ones.
Everything went of smoothly and
well, and az we are told it was the
first rehearsal, We are not a little sur
prised to fiud that there were no
bitches or anything to mar the play.
The music, which is very beautiful
and in quite a few places not little
difficult, was very we'll performed by
the orchestra and the little folks. The
acting was also very creditable, but
most especially was the drill of the
soldiers in the third act. We predict q
decided success to Professor Smyths'
new undertaking. There will be
special rates for all members of day
and Sabbath schools, to the matinee
