On the cars one meets with many
queer characters. In the next seat
ahead sits as thorough a "dead beat"
as ever earned his bread by the
sweat of another mans brow. He
has been everywhere but to heaven,
where he apparently has no desire
to go,and knows every thing except
ing obedience to the ninth COM
mandment, which he violates in
every sentence. He is shabbily
dressed, but clothed with conceit as
with a mantle, and with tongue Of
mercury and bosom of brass, wages
a warfare with truth and consis-
tency at every Inference. His
mother was worth 100000 and
lived in California half an hour ago,
but has since changed her residence
to st. Louis, where she subSistS
upon war widows pension of $50
per month. He himself is immense
ly wealthy having just sold a val
liable mine for $150,000. He has
even been to Utah, knows all about
Mormon's and Mormonism, and had
just commenced with; ANY man
who would be a Mormon" when
one of our party casually remarked
that he was born and reared one,
where upon, his volatility, after a
moments hesitation, cooely re-
sumed; "any man who would be a
Mormon, has perfect right to be"
later on he claimed he was Nor
mon himself, clinching the state
ment with the extraordinary an
nouDcement that he was baptized
in the year 1927, at Nauvoo, Mis-
souri,. All went well with him until
the train reached Grand Island
where this man Of rolling wealth
and elastic principles was kicked
out of 10c restaurant for refusing
to pay for his breakfast. But here
we are at Omaha.

scrupufous hand which hurls it
about so recklessly.
The Ames Memorial Monument,
at Sherman, which was commenced
II months ago, by order of the
Union Pacific Railroad Company, is
beginning to assume an imposing
appearance. The altitude of the
railroad at this point, is S,242 feet
above the level Of the sea, the high
est railway station in America, and
the highest but one in the werld.
The monument is built upon an ele-
walton Of thirty feet, and is situated
two hundred yards south of the
track. It will be made entirely of
red granite, with which this vicinity
abounds, and when completed will
be a pyramidal shaped structure,
sixty feet square at the base to apex.
In seperate inches, thirty-nine feet
from the ground, will be placed the
statue Ebusts of Oliver and Cakes
Ames, the master spirits of the
Credit Mobiler,to which scheme the
great Pacific Railroad owes its orr
gin. The former will look eastward,
and the latter towards the west. On
the north side, in letters foot high
sunk into the solid rock, will appear
the inscription; "In memory of Oil
yer Ames and Cakes Ames." The
bust Of Schuyler Colfax will have
no place on this monument. 1t
would be useless. He is busted
already. The masonary is up 261a
feet, and operations have been sus-
pended for the winter. The quarry
Iue commenced in the fall of 1880,
but the building was started only
last July. The architect is Mr..
Richardson and Gamble, and the
work of construction is under the
superintendent of Mr.. A. l.. Suth-

[ have met with a number of
pleasant personages since leaving
Utah, and with none more agreeable
than Mr.. Rosewa ter the industrious
and intelligent editor of the Omaha
Bee. He is what 81 Utah "sorehead"
would denominate a 81 ack Mormon"
but what a white man would call
gentleman who minds his own bust
ness. He is mormon to that eX-
tent. While he does not believe in
the divinity of the system, he thinks
that with all other religious faiths,
it is entitled to tolerance, and should
be permitted the privilege of solving
its own problem. Polygamy he
thinks will die a natural death, and
in the meantime he does not consider
it his Christian duty either to assail
Or advocate it. The world would be
better for more of such men. AS
Bill Nye has it Gin theory only, it
appears)"If everybody in this world
would mind his own business,
what large blue chunks of fra
grant calm we might have to be
sure"

Dinner at Rock Creek, and in an
hour we are at Larmie. Laramie THE
home of Bill Nye, the Boomerang
and the prairie dog. A man who
aspires to be humorist, must first
acquire the art of being amiable;
for as certain as he is expected to
say 1T good naturally. AS long as
he does this, his efforts are liable to
please. and even his faise-hoods (for
humorists often indulge if not Justl-
fable, will at least be amusing.
But if, in addition to lying, he loses
his temper, and instead OF laugh
provoking ridicule, pours forth
abuse and calumny, he is a manor
ist no longer; simply a liar. Such
being. it is said is the editor of the
Laramie Boomerang; a writer who
could be eminent as Wit, dld ne
not also aim to WELD the pen OF a
sIanderer. What motive could in
duce a man of his intelligence to
visit Salt Lake City, where he met
with uniform courtesy from Nor
mon and Gentle alike, and then re-
turn home and abuse and vllllfy an
innocent community as he did. Was
it revenge? Did a Mormon ever
wrong Mr.. Nye? Was it amuse-
ment? Can TRADE Of vulgarity
and bitterness be called funny? 1t
was the old old song of falsehOod
and Win peration which has saluted
Mormon ears ever since they first
conquered the desert and made 1t
nossible for their traducerS to live
in their midst. 1t was the Wheezy
echo of a discOrdant note, originally
evoked from the broken hand organ
of disappointed senvy. The reoc-
cupattion of last years bird's-nest,
which the former inmates had long
since deserted for a surer shelter.
It was nearly as weak as the head
of d Utah governor. and as futile
and short lived as the results OF a
Methodist camp-meeting. Mr.. Nye
was not expected to advocate Nor
monism. it can exist without his
aid. But he was expected to sus
tain his own reputation. 1t was
not supposed he would state things
exactly as he saw them, for what
humorist ever did, but it was sup
posed that he would at least Keep
his temper, and ii he could not be
a mirth maker. to at least restrain
from being a blackguard: No
writer ought.and certainly no funny
writer need to descend to such prac-
tees. He has the advantage to
begin with. as has any one who can
skillfully wild the lightnings of
satire, and he is a self evident weak
holding such an advantage, would
cIumsiiy beat about with the weap-
ons of a bsor, 1t requires brains to
be a wit, but it takes very little to
be a rufian. [ have conversed with
several of Mr.. Nye's admirers, and
with one of his personal friends
upon this subject, and not one of
| them but censures his unmanly
course. The Boomerang, if it con-
tinues its present policy, may re-

Editors Herald:
If any one were to ask me for a
definition of "the twain relics OF
barbarism," 1 would answer unhesi-
tatingly, railroad peddlers and cir
Gus lemonade. No longer being a
patron of the equestrian opera, my
term of circus-idiecy having ex-
pired simultaneously with certain
''gentlemanly agent" shot down in
the act of charging a dollar for a
solitary stick of peppermint thrown
into the lap of my lady companion,)
I confess to being little rusty upon
the nso71dUs operGndt at present In
vogue within the grand pavilion /;
but recent experience has somewhat
refreshed my memory, as to the
character and habits of the mercan
tile minion of the rail. Not that
these, by any means, are the worst
specimens to be met. On the con-
trary, they are a decided improve
ment upon many l have encoun-
tered. They do not question your
veracity, when you tell them you
wish nothing in their line to-day ;
they do not throw you down and
sit upon you till you evince a wiling
ness to pay three price for an Indian
necklace or a box of animated figs ;
nor do they, as of old, impeach your
intelligence and good taste declin-
ing to invest in the blOOd-cu1dling
adventures of BILLY the Kid" or
other western classics. These re-
fined customs are happily Obso-
lete upon this line at least, but the
room for improvement is still quite
commodious and one cannot but
conclude, after all, that the railroad
peddler with his big prices and bad
manners, is almost as much Of an
annoyance as an accommodations.
The old lady with wild weird eye,
who occupies the next seat and
most of my time, asking names OF
stations, ages of conductors, and
other matters upon which | am as
thoroughly posted as herself, is a
weight grievous and heavy to be
borne. yet l turn to her with glad
sense of relief, from the soul harrow
ing nihilism, of which the rail ped
dler is the genius incarnate. l wish
him no harm. The world is plenty
large enough for him and man. But
1 do wish him a speedy evolution,
and until the glad contamination is
realized would suggest that he be
sentenced to the daily careful peru
sal of chapter in Chesterfield.

The Fourth Fabbri Concert.

An audience not numerous but
quite appreciative and cultured as
sembled at Turnverein Hall last
night, to enjoy the fourth Fabbri
concert. We are sorry that the at
tendance was not larger and thus
more affirmative of the cordial
feelings which the people of Los
Angeles cherish towards Madame
Fabbri, her pupils and Herr Jacob
Muller. Considering the fact that
there are long and dreary wastes
in tho amusement annals of Los
Angeles, we ought to respond bet
ter when we strike mu sical oasis,
like that which has been lately &C.

We entered the hall last night
when very enjoyable trio, by
Madame Ines Fab5rI. Mics Childs
and Herr Jacob Muller, held the
boards. 1t was greeted with great
cordia:ity, an enthusiastic recall
and was followed by solo by Miss
Adler, which also evoked a very
emphatic encore, TO which she re-
sponded by singing the "Last Rose
of Summer" "a song essayed, at
some time or other, by all the

season. His playing in this part
WAS characterized by sweetness,

experience charming one 10 the
listener. Miss Childs followed with
an aria, noted on the programme as
from Trovatore, which sounded TO
us marvelously like passage from
