THOMPSON CoMpANY's "MIKADO."
4 Fair and spirited Representation
by Professionals which Makes
the Amateurs Happy.

The opera OF "The Mikado" reeds no
introduction to Salt Lake audience, this
interesting and most amusing OF comic
operas having been presented several
times by the Careless amateur company,
rendering the plot, music, and its most
notable solos almost familiar to all. 1t
was, therefore, an interested and some
what critical audience that filed the Salt
Lake Theatre last night to witness the
first professional representation here by
the Thompson Opera Company, which
has come heralded as one OF the best and
strongest companies on the road, making
1.-THE Mikado" their specially.
The elegant stage settings, the rich
japanese costumes, and the superb or
chestration which had been advertised,
were not present; and in no respect did
the stage settings or the costumes com
pare with those OF the local company. A
noticeable feature OF comparison was in
the chorus, and here again tn e Salt Lake
amateurs seemed to have the preference,
except where the ensembles were given,
when the vigor and precision OF the pro-
fessionals had fine effect.
1t was difficult to see, except in one or
two points, wherein the professional in
depreciation by the Thompson Company
is better than tho one we have already
seen; il differed, but the difference
hardly amounted to an improvement.
The performance, however, all in all, was
an able one, all the members exerting
themselves to please, and the audience
demanding and re-demanding repeti-
ton OF the OPERAS gems, which were

10 10 of A. w. +. McCollin was fine
piece of comedy, being particularly de-
lightful in his love making scene
to Katisha, which was enthusiasts
tically enjoyed and applauded by
the audience, and secured several
encores. Mr.. Phil. Branson has fine
voice for the part of Nanki-Poo, and his
scenes with Yum Yum were invested
with somuch sympathy and clever acting
that he was Immediately made a
iavorite by the audience. His ringing
tones were heard to good advantage
in the concerted pieces, and his
voice is unquestionably the best one
in the company. Katisha was excellently
done by Miss Carrie Godfrey, her voice
being superior to that of Yum Yum or
either OF the wards, while Miss Hall is u
much better dancer than singer, and
comparison liz lost when instituted
between her voice and that of
Miss Nettie Thatcher. She acts the
part well, however, and leaves everyone
well pleased with her. Pooh Bah was
well rendered, rs was the Mikado and,
taken all in all, the Thompson company
gave very satisfactory and pleasant pre-
sentation of the opera, one which is thor
oughly enjoyable, unless one is disposed
to be too critical, and those who have not
yet seen the performance will certainly
find good entertainment by being present
at the Theatre tonight.

WRECKED ON THE RAIL.
FrtghtfuI Collision In Montana,
on the Northern Pacific
Railroad.

News is received of frightful railroad
accident on the Northern Pacific east
of Missoula, Friday morning before
daylight. A tea train, east-bound,
scheduled at thirty miles per hour, and
having right of way over everything, met
west-bound freight No. l3 on a curve in
in the canyon three miles east OF Turah:
Both trains were almost demolished, and
four men were killed, viz: Michael Rech,
engineer Alvin s. Moffat, fireman; Tom
Devine, brakeman, and Willie A.. An
drews. a passenger The wounded are
as follows: j. B. Waite, arm dislocated
Frank j. Bowhert. brakeman, both feet
crushed; N. Rice, leg torn from its socket.
Another man whose name is unknown
was badly hurt internally.
The blame for the accident rests be-
tween the operator at Wallace (first
station east of Turah) and the conductor
and engineer OF the freight train. The
tea train had the right of way and this
fact was known to the freight train. They
also knew that the tea train was only
a station or two away, and it was their
duty to stop at Wallace, whether they
were signalled or not, although they had
received orders at the next station east to
the effect that they would not meet the
tea train until they reached Turah. The
operators responsibility for the accident
lay in the fact that he was ordered to flag
the freight at Wallace and hold it there
until the tea train passed. This it APP
pears he failed to do.-Butte Inter-Moun-

ARRESTED FOR PERJURY.

From the Denver News, 10Th ult.
A recent dispatch in the Neus from
Salt Lake announced that several United
States officials had been arrested for lewd
conduct with some women OF doubtful
character. The dispatch said that the
Mormons were in high glee over this
turning OF the tables on their Gentle
prosecutors. 1t was further stated that a
large number of similar charges would
be made against prominent Gentiles,
which would be substantiated by hired
testimony, to be furnished by loose
women brought to Salt Lake from the
Pacific Coast and other places for that
purpose.
1t would seem that the Federal author
tiles in Salt Lake were made perfectly
well aware OF the scheme, and from evil
dence obtained caused

dispatch for Captain Hawley, of the
Sheriff's office, was received from the
United States Marshal at Salt Lake ask
ing him to arrest several women, whose
names were given. Captain Hawley
being absent, the matter was placed in
the hands of Deputy Sheriff Al. Moore.
The latter, upon investigation, discovered
on the register of the Brunswick Hotel OF
date November 2lst, the name
MISS FANNY MONTGOMERY.
Inquiry developed the further fact that
although she had not given her former
residence on the registry, she had arrived
that evening from Salt Lake. Upon
reaching the hotel she told one of the
proprietors that she had husband living
in Denver named j. w. Montgomery,
who was employed at the Elite stables.
He was telephoned for, and at first denied
that he had wife, but afterward came to
the hotel, greeted his alleged wife affec-
tionately, and stayed at the hotel week
with her. The pair left on Friday after
noon and took up their quarters at Az

was arrested yesterday afternoon, and is
now in the County Jail. There are

WASHINGTON TERRITORY.
The Good Land Yet Unsurveyed-
what Caus ed the Chinese
Trouble.

WASHINGTON, December - Governor
Squire, of Washington Territory, in his re-
port to Secretary Lamar, gives the popula-
ton of the Territory at 129,4 3S, an increase
of 5000 in two years, the assessed value of
property is 0,4s4 437, and there are yet
100000 ACRES OF PUBLIC LAND
Unsurveyed, of which 100000 are good
agricultural and timber land. The Gov
ernor states that by the Territorial census OF
1885, there were 1926 Chinese residents in
the Territory.
He says the recent attacks on the Chinese
in that Territory have grown out of the fact
that
CHINAMEN ARE CONTINUALLY COMING ACROSS
The border from British Columbia in viola
ton of the restriction act. The Governor
suggests an increased customs force on the
border, a revision of the restriction act, and
q revision or repeal of the Burlingsme note

tory.

OUR WEATHER PROPHETS.
The Pacific Coast "a Division BY IT.
saif-C0ntinuRnCeO of the san
Francisco office.

WASHINGTON, December IA reporter
called at the Signal Office to learn the reason
for the sudden suspension of the weather
indications on the Pacific Coast, and was in
formed that the suspension is temporary
only. Lieutenant Glassford, of the signal
corps, who has been on duty here for some
time will be ordered to San Francisco to
take charge of the Pacific Coast division,
and until be reaches his new post the indi-
cations there have been suspended. Some
time ago it was decided to make

For weather indications, and Lieutenant
Craig, who was stationed here, was placed
in charge of the division with headquarters
at San Francisco. Not great while ago he
was relieved from duty on the Signal Service
at his own request with view of joining
his regiment. His relief left the office at
San Francisco in charge of Signal Ser.
geant, who continued the work. 1t was
found, however, he was hardly up to the re.
quirements of such an important duty, and
it was decided to suspend the Pacific Coast
indications until a more competent Officer
could take charge.

Struck Lots of Water,

Captain Ransford Smith and Moroni
skeen are in great luck, says the Ogden
Me'cs. For some weeks they have been
experimenting on their lands, near the
mouth OF Weber river, nine miles from
Ogden, in the expectation OF finding
water. Two wells have been sunk OF one
and one.fourth inch diameter, and they
are yielding, together, 2,16O gallons per
hour. One yields 1850 gallons, and the
other 900 gallons per hour. This demon
strates the fact that the sagebrush lands
can be used for farming and adds greatly
to the value of these gentlemen's posses
sions. We heartily congratulate both.

How to Consult DR.. Foote. sr., by Mail.

DR.. Foote, Senior, author OF Plain
Home Talk, /" Medical Common SENSE"

to have such information supplied in this
way to save time. Receiving such printed
matter the correspondent can describe
his or her case fully and direct it to the
doctor, in New York. DIR. Foote is
successfully treating all forms of chronic
diseases, specially to which he has de-
voted thirty years OF study and practice.
Evidences of his success can also be had
by addressing Box Ala, as above, but all
letters of consultation and orders for
remedies should be addressed to DIR. f..
