at the theater, but the performance

Tracy performed his part very skill
fully, bis arrangements having been
SO e.ege.ly perfected that he carried
the twenty.six numbers on the pro-
gramme through in about two hours

the audience, and the songs, recitations
and instrumental numbers followed
eOch other with rapid succession, SO
that none were wearied. Those who
lent aid to the work all volunteered
free oil charge; the theatre, the gas, the
attendants aud all necessary details
were given without other compensa-
ton than a desire to help the suffer-
ing people driven from their houses
by the recent high water. But for
the disagreeuble nature of the ele.

AN ESSAY ON ROLLER SKATES.

The roller skate is wayward little
quadruped. 1t is as frolicsome and more
innocent looking than lamb, but fol
interfering with ones upright attitude in
the community it is perhaps the best
machine that has appeared in Salt Lake
City.
Ode's first feeling on standing up on a
mir of roller skates is an uncomfortable
tendency to come from together. Que
foot Inpy start out toward laho while
the other rs promptly strikes out for
Arizona. The legs do not stand by each
other as legs related by blood should do,
but each shows disposition to set up il
business alone, and leave you to take
care of yourself as best you may. The
awkwardness Of this arrangement is Op.
parent, While they are setting up inde
pendently, there is nothing for you to
do but to sit down and await future de.
velopments. And you have to sit down,
too, without having made any previous
preparation for it. and without having
devoted as much thought to it as ytu
might have done had you been consulttd
in the matter.
One of the most noticeable things at
skating riuk is the strong attraction be-
tween the human body aud the floor OF
the rink. II tue human body had been
coming through space for days and days
at the rate of million miles a second.
without stopping at eating stations, and
not excepting Sundays, when it strikes
the floor. we could understand why it
struck the floor with so much violence.
As it is, however, the thing Is inexpli-
cable.
There are different kinds of falls in
vogue at the rink. There are the rear
falls, and front falls, the Cardinal VOL
sey fall, the fall one across the other,
three iu pile, and SO on. There are
some of the falls that would like to be
excused from describing. The rear fail
is the fnvorite. It is more frequently
utilized than any other. There are two
positions in ska ting, the perpendicular
and the horizontal. Advanced skaters
prefer the perpendicular, while others
affect the horizontal.
T Skates are no respectors of persons
They will lay out a minister of the Cos
pei or the Mayor of the city as readily
as they will short-coated, one.suspend-
cred boy, or giddy girl.
When one of a mans feet starts for
Nevada and the other for Colorado, that
does not separate him from the floor or
break up his fun. Other portions of his
body will take the place Lis feet have
just vacated. with promptness that is
surprising. And he will find that the
fun has just begun-for the people look
ing on.
The equipments for the rink are 9
pair of skates, a cushion, and a bottle oi
liniment,

ABOUT FEET.

"The largest pair of shoes that 1 ever
sold to q lady," sail the merchant,
Numbered nine. There are two sis
ters; one wears eights and the others
mines, The Oldest sister" he continued,
"tried to squeeze on pair of eights, but
without success. Finally she gave me
an order to make pair of mines, and
they really look we'll on her foot. You
wouldn't think they were mines to look
q. them. We sell more num- er ones
than eights, however. have been in
business fifteen years. and l find that
the majority of those who wear ones are
either Southern or Spanish ladies'
"What is the difference between the foot
of a Southern lady and that of Yankee
womnn?" We inquired 1.-The difference
is the same as the difference between the
foot of Southern man and Yankee.
Southern feet are narrow and bowed in
the middle, giving them very high in
step. The Yankee foot is spread at the
toes, and has more surface. There il
much grace about the foot of a Yankee
lady, but it lacks the suppleness of the
Southern foot. Its merits are its ex
quisite shape, small heel and strength
Compare the walk of a Southern woman
with the walk of Yankee woman. TIL,

The little heel catches the sidewalk anC

THE FRONT GATE.

An old and crippled gate am I,
And twenty years have passed
Since was swung up high and dry
Betwixt these posts SO fast;
But now I've grown SO powerful weak
Despised by man and beast
I'm scarcely strong enough to squeak
Although Pm never creased.
Twas twenty years ago, say,
When Mr.. Enos White
Came kind of hanging 'rsund my way
Most every other night.
He hung upon my starbourd side,
And she upon the tother,
Till Susan Smith became his bride,
Aud in due time a mother.
l groaned intensely when heard
Despite am no churl-
My doom breathed in a single word
The baby was girl
And as enc grew auG grew and grew,
loud bemoaned my fate,
For she was very fair to view,
Aud IL was the gate.
Then in due time, lover came
Betoken of my ruin
A dapper fellow, Brown by name.
The grown up baby wooinl
They sprang upon me in the gloom,
Aud talked of moon and star;
They are married now and live at home
Along with ma and pa.
My lot was happy for year,
No courting night or day
had no thought, had no fear,
Bad luck would come my way,
But oh! this morning, save the mark
There came a wild surprise,
A shadow fitted grim and dark
Across my sunny skies.
A doctor with knowing smile,
Anurse with face serene,
A hustle in the house the while,
Great Scottl What can i: meanP
My hinges ache, tho lock is weak,
My pickets in a whirl

at is another girl |"
