SALT LAKE, UTAH, July 24.-This is
the thirty-eighth anniversary of the en-
trance into the Salt Lake Valley by
Brigham Young and the 142 Mormons
who made the journey from the Missouri
River by OK teams. Usually the anni-
versarY is observed with much display,
but the half f.masting of the fiig on the
4th of July, and threatened collision
between the Mormons and Gentiles
should there be any further inter.
ference with the flag, as
well as the death of General
Graut, put stop to all organized cele
bration. The day passed quietly. Bus
iness was entirely suspended and saloons
were closed by the Mayors proclama
tion. Instead of the usual rush OF visit
ors to the city, hundreds left town, goins
to various neighboring resorts to escape
the heat. Telegraphic reports from al
parts of the Territory state that Pioneel
Day is the quietest one In history.

The Growth of the Trade In This Article

The Growth of the Trade In This Article
In the United Stats.
Said well-known manufacturer to a
reporter: THE consumption of choco-
late in the United States has had won
derful growth. In 1873 we m inufac-
tured into chocolate goods 24,000 bags
of raw cocoa; last year we used 54,0O0
bags, an increase of $4,000 bags in five
years. The next five years will see a
st IL greater rate of increase. When
Humboldt discovered the use of the
cocoa plant IN his travels, he title
dreamed of the immense business that
was to grow out of the concoction of
his first cup of chocolate. 1t s TODAY
fairly in the way of becom ng one of
the principal articles of food through
out the world, and tends eventually to
supplant tea and coffee as a beverage.
AS flavor ng it alrea iy stands next to
vanilla, wh ch heads the st, and it is
used all branches of cookery, pastry
and creams, and for baking purpos ses
generally. Fifteen years ago I went
on the road to sell in a small way
chocolate goods of my own manufac-
ture. and was laughed at for my
pains. At that time the consumption
was I'm ted in this country to the few
large ties in VIII ch the fore gn ele-
ment predom mated. The art Gle was
elsewhere comparatively unknown.
| 1.-THE taste for chocolate is an ac-
quired one, and the public had to be
educated to the love for it, and Ike
tobacco and beer it is at first dstasteful
and even nauseatng, but also like them
when once the taste is formed it is moi
easily surfeited. 1t probably tires the
taste less than any other confec ion,
and this accounts for It's presence in
nearly all the candy that is sold to-day.
Chocolate is one of the most hea1thful
foods known, and in its pure state may
be used to ar unlimited extent w thoui
harmful effects. In Europe it has taker
nearly half century of unremittine
labor on the part of manufacturers tC

chocolate, but Amer cans take to i
rapidly, and in fifteen years hav,

almost as necessary of life. The va
cites of chocolote preparations ar,
almost legion, for it enters into th
manufacture of both food and drink.
