No the neighborhood news, (Which
~ the way is very scarce,) and was
tbus afforded the grand opportunity
Of viewing his neighbor's prospects
ot crops OF different kinds. We no
uced several very promising fields
Of corn. But think the fields of L.
C. Reeves, and our staunch demo
uatic friend Jim Brown, take the
lead. D. NJ. Clark takes the lead
in flax, and Joel Ferguson IN castor
beans. Among the best wheat fields
we noticed those of Z. Z. Foster,
II. E. Crider and S. Nj. Talbot.
We have no fine specimens of

4 Remarkable Occurrence.

New York, July An occur
renee 50 remarkable in its results
that they would not be believed. if
not fully attested, has recently taken
place here. 4 boy named John H.
Mulkmus employed in the soap and
pertumery works of Mr. Salon
Palmer, Nos 574 and SO Pearl st.
took hold OF dull red hot iron. His
right hand was terribly burned and
he suffered excruciaung torture.
Palmer's lotion was promptly ap-
lied. the bandages being kept we'll
saturated with it. In an hour the
pam had almost gone. In five days
the hand was we'll and not 4 scar re-
manned The boy made an affidavit
that the marvellous cure had been
affected solely by the use Of Palmer 5
lotion.

Several complainto have recently been
made to the board of school directors
about the want Of sufficient warmth in Tie
main school building during the morning
session; the consequence being that sew
eral scholars have caught severe colds.
Mr.. voorhees,, of the board, who investi-
gated the matter, says that on cold morn
ings, with a northern wind blowing. the
steam apparatus does not heat the rooms
in the exposed parts Of the building
sufficiently. We would suggest that on
such cold mornings the principal or teach
ers be authorized to dismiss the classes
whose rooms are uncomfortable. If the
steam heating apparatus is faulty, it
should be replaced by one that will furn-
ish sufficient heat in the coolest weather;
but, o. course, this cannot be done until
next season.

what the Denver Press says About Her
Appearance There.

Clara Morris is playing in Denver this
week. The Denver Tribune Republican,,
a paper that is irimical to the Tabor
opera house, thus refers to her imperson-
alton Of Cora in Article Az.
Clara Morris does not properly belong
to that class OF who are called
actresses; for to call her an actress, in
comparison with the hundreds who crowd
the stage and play the same roles, is as
absurd as to pronounce wine to be water.
Either she is an actress and the others are
not, or she is not an actress and the Others
are. 1t is better to put an end to com
parison and call her a genius.
She is not one of the actresses who
make acting a trade, for she does not act,
she Is. Not that the art of acting does
not enter into the impersonation which
she gives, for, Of course, il must-but it
is simply the vehicle, the golden chariot
which carries her safely through, 30 that
she does not Ger do nature. To
her. the dramatic art is what the art of
rhetoricis to the literary ~genius-a setting
for the thoughts of genius.
1t is not enough to say that her art is
consummate, for without her talent art
would do no more for her than it has done
for a hundred other actresses who have
worked diligently and intelligently to ac-
quire it It is that INFANT and indescrib-
able quality which comes with birth and
which the French call fl saere, that ena-
bles Clara Morris to be the character
which she represents.

UNAUTHORIZED STATEMENTS.
A Union Pacific Employe with a Lively
Imagination.


In The LEADER Of yesterday morning
was published the statements of an en-
ploye of the Union Pacific regarding the
nature of the present situation of affairs
between the managers and the men.
These statements we're, in effect, that the
designations Of Supt Dorrance and Supt
Dickinson had been demanded, and that
the locomotive engineers had rebelled at
the rules. Owing to the l~ateness of the
hour when the employe made the state
ments there was no opportunity to obtain
any contributory information, either con-
irming or denying them. This fact was
stated and it was promised that investiga-
tons would be made.
Yesterday morning a representative of
The LEADER saw Supt. Deuel. before
that gentleman departed for the eastern
end Of the division, and in the evening
another official Of the road was also inter
viewed regarding the assertions OF the en-
ploye.
Both declared the statements without
foundation in fact. and entirely unwar-
ranted- The resignation of n official
has not been demanded, and the engi-
neers have expressed their willingness to
abide by the requirements of the new
rules. There is no longer any danger of
a rebellion, or even Of trouble. on account
Of the new rules and the relations be-
tween the managers and the employees
were never more pleasant han at the
present time.
Inquiry among the higher employees
and among the engineers confirms the de-
NAL of the alleged imminent trouble and
it appears that the employee who claimed
that a mighty row would soon occur, was
unwarranted in making such assertions.
He occupys a responsible place and is in
a position to know whereof he speaks.
As a matter of legitimate news his asser-
tons were given to the public, with Ger
tain reservations. 1t is a matter of con-
graduation that an investigation has re-
suited in the denial of the rumors of
trouble.

THE CONCERT.
A Splendid Entertainment at the
Congregational Church.
Miss Howe's Songs and Miss Bells
REGULATIONS.

The Congregational church was flIeC
last evening with an audience that as
sembled to listen to a musical and ~liteiar,
concert The entertainment was one o
the finest ever given in this city, and III,
audience was enthusiastic in its praise Of
the efforts OF those who took part.
The programme was introduced with Z
piano duet by Mn. King and Mr.. Inman
after which Miss Bell recited a selection
from Dald CoppeJfeM entitled David
and Dora"
Miss Howe sang q ''Staccato Polka, p
the Carnival of Venice and IBID No
Discourse, " the latter being the last mum
Der on the programme. In recognition Of
prolonged applause she afterwards sang,
with infinite grace and melody, Comm
THO the Rye"
Miss Bell recited Aunt Doleful,'
Sister and | - The Courtin'. " Speak
ing Day at Luz and "Miggles. BY
request she also gave How Ruby
Played"
Mrs. Holt, Mrs. King and Prof. In
man contributed several instrumental
pieces, and the entertainment closed all
too 500 for the audience.
Miss Howe is a petite little body, and
cannot endure the physical fatigue Of
p~rotracted singing. Her voice is highly
cultivated, however, its richness, fiexi-
bihty, c~learness in higher notes and at
times its power, are wonderful. She will
remain in the city several days and will
be the guest of Mrs. Church.
Miss Bell is an elocutionary phenomena.
Her renditions of the pathetic are singu-
larly unaffected and her essays in the field
of humor are exquisite in the finish and
perfectly natural manner in which sweeps
the chords of delicate humor, cutting
sarcasm, broader fun and scintillating
wit.
The entire performance was a gem in
its way, and is worthy of all praise. No
small portion of its excellence was due to
the efforts Of Mrs. Holt, Mrs. King and
Prof. Inman, for which they have the
thanks of the ladies of the society.
