KIRALFY,s "AROUND THE WORLDS
A Brilliant Spectacular Production
at the Theatre on Monday Night.

The engagement for three nights at the
Salt Lake Theatre, commencing Monday
next, of Kiralfy's great company in their
grand spectacular play, "Around the
World in Eighty Days." dramatization
OF Jules Verne's famous novel, will be a
change in the line of amusements here,
and of character which Salt Lakers will
readily appreciate. Not since Excelsior"
was here has there been anything that
has the magnifcence. the marvellous
mechanical and optical effects, the
grand scenery, the elegant costuming
and the great corps de ballet that
"Around the World" carries with it.
Its gorgeous splendor has never before
been equalled in America, and the
Kiralfys have achieved a great triumph
in the remodelling of the piece, which
they have now been playing for ten years.
The first scene is a view of the Suez
canal, entirely new; and the Royal
Metropolis is one of the finest stage pic
lures ever presented. In the second act,
a ballet of 100 danseuses is introduced,
headed by Mile. De Rosa, the greatest
dancer in the world. ''The Jersey Light
Guards" by the ballet is feature always

Magnificent Edition of Poe's "Rayen. ,,

Parsons has just received an elegant
copy OF Harper Bros Poe's Raven, /"
illustrated by Dore. 1t is all unusually
large book, being about 15x23 inches,
and OF first-class mechanical makeup.
The poem is commented on by Edmund
Z. Stedman, and the illustrations have
been made by noted American engravers.
1t is magnificent work, and as one
turns the pages of the book the convic-
ton is irresistible that here two great
ana immortal men of genius have met
roe, the poet, and Dore, the artist.
The Raven" perhaps more than any
other OF his writings, has given Poe his
widest fame, and exhibited more clearly
his wonderful and peculiap power of
imagination. The Craven" is a poetical
eccentricity found nowhere else in the
vast domain of literature. Had Poe
written but that, it would have immor-
tallzed his name for all time to come.
The association of the French artist. GINS
fave Dore, is exceedingly appropriate,
and environs the poem with additional
interest. Dore, as an illustrator, was
equally as fantastic and prolific as Poe
was writer. Dore's Imagination knew !
n bounds, and the Raven" proved a
lifting subject upon which to lavish his
yrotesque conceptions. Had Poe lived
@ see the hidden meaning of the "Raven''
wrought out so clearly by the master
land OF Dore, it would have been infin-
tely more gratifying than that the entire
french nation had memorized the poem,
md knowing it, he might have died

murrer, like that in the Lewis case, was

For Home COnsumption.

So far as the Mormons are concern ed
they never yet had such vigorous ar
ralgnment as that which the first Demo-
cratic President in generation, on whom
they have counted so much, has given
them. He not only reprobates and ridi-
cules their preposterous claims, but re-
grets that he has not more laws to en-
force against them, and suggests that it
would be wise for Congress to pass law
prohibiting the importation of their
proselytes. Probably nothing in the
document will give the country greater
satisfaction than this, for the opinion has
been growing since Mr.. Cleveland came
into office that much more might have
been accomplished in the waw of uproot-
ing this gigantic error if the Presidents
who preceded him had been as we'll dis
posed in that direction as he has shown
himself to be.-Chicago Herald, Decem-

HAMPTON MUST STAND TRIAL.
His Demurrer Overrhled this M orb
ing and the Case Set for
Wednesday,.

Yesterday afternoon as ordered by the
Court, Judge Hoge filed the following de-
murrers to the indictments found by the
Grand Jury against B. Y. Hampton:
First-That the Grand Jury by which
it was found had no legal authority to in
quire into the offense charged, by reason
of its not being within the legal jurisdic-
ton of the Court.
Second-The facts stated in the indict-
ment. do not constitute public offense.
Third-That the Indictment does not
substantially conform to the requirements
of sections $50 and Isl, in this: 1t does
not state the particular circumstances of
the ofense attempted to be charged, or Of
the offense charged, or of any ofense
whatevers
The case being called for at 10 o'clock
this morning, the defense stated that a
demurrer would be submitted in the two
charges of conspiracy without argument,
to which Mr.. Varian agreed as satisfac-
tory to the prosecution, and moved that
the demurrer be overruled without argu-
ment, which was so done by the Court.
Judge Hoge took exceptions to the
everything. Mr.. Hampton being allowed
to renew his plea, listened to the reading
of the complaint and again pleaded not
guilty to the charge.
On motion of the prosecuting attorney
the Court ordered issued an open venire
for twenty-four names, returnable on
Wednesday morning, the 18th inst, for

JUDGE ZANE SUSPENDS SENTENCE
Daniel Manning Experiences Ju.
dicial Clemency and Walks
Gut Of Court Happy.

Some weeks since Daniel T. Manning,
young man % years of age, and but two
months in the Territory, was arrested on
the charge of uttering forged paper on
MIR. Peacock, of this city. This being the
day set for hearing, Manning came into
court, and through Mr. Varian expressed
himself as DESTROYS of changing his plea.
The prosecuting attorney said he had in
vestigated the young mans case and
from both sides the universal opinion is
that defendant is entitled to his freedom.
There exists no desire on the part of any
one to prosecute the case as it presents
itself, and the court is requested to sus-
pend sentence. Young Manning with
drew his plea of not guilty and pleaded
guilty.
Judge Zane questioned him as to his
business pursuits, and said that under the
surrounding the matter
sentence would be suspended. Manning
left the courtroom with much more
cheerful countenance than he has worn
during the past month.
