A Badly Scared PolYgamist.

A drunken soldier was the cause of a
wild stampede last night. In the eastern
part of the city lives Saint who is well
known to be polygamist. Late last
night weary +" boy in blue was wend-
ing his way campward, but having a
pretty heavy load to carry, and becoming
tired, he concluded to rest by the way
side. The house of the aforesaid Saint
stood near by with an inviting porch in
front OF it, and spying this the soldier
crept in and laid down. Whether or not
it was his uneasy slumbers that awakened
the inmates of the house is not known.
but hearing a noise outside, the owner of
the premises at once Jumped to the con-
clusion that the minions of the law were
on his track. Listening breathlessly for
a moment, and hearing the sound of
subdued breathing, he became thoroughly
convinced that he was gone case. Grab
bling his pants in one hand and his shoes
in another, he softly crept out the back
door, climbed the fence and made for
the foot hills. The whole thing was
given away by belated friend of the
old man, who met him about two blocks
from home, where he had stopped long
enough to put his pants on. Stopping
to ask what the matter was, the reply
was " Oh, Lord Pm dead mani" The
Saint was persuaded to return home and
quiet was restored.

A Novel Clock.

There is on exhibition in the window
of L. Hollander, the jeweler, a novel
piece of mechanism in the shape of a
clock. The dial of the clock consists of a
horizontal strip of glass on which appear
the figures from 6 to II and from 1 to g..
placed in arow across the glass. Stretched
over the glass dial is thin wire on which
IS perched a bird. The bird holds a
pointer in its beak which runs down over
the figures on the dial The bird moves
from left to right on the wire, marking
time with the pointer. When the bird
reaches the right hand 6, it moves back
to the left hand figure 6, thus marking
TIME IN the same manner as an ordinary
clock. There is no apparent connection
OF the bird with any motive power, and
now 1t moves with regularity, marking
the exact time, is mystery. The clock
is the only one of the kind in the world.
having been lately patented by Mr.. Hol-
lander. The inventor claims that it is
not worked by electricity, magnetism or
anv other "ism," and leaves it for each
to say how the thing is done. Crowds of
curious observers have gathered around
1t, but no satisfactory explanation has as
yet been arrived at. g.

SOME BASE BALL TALK.
The Denver and Butte Clubs Organ
iZe-Will Salt Lake Play Them?

The Denver base ball club has organ
lied for the season and will play their
first game next Sunday with the Pueblo
nine. 1t is said to be one of the strongest
associations ever organized in Denver,
and will play hard game to keep the
pennant of the Rocky Mountains within
its hands. Some of the Denver boys have
been seen in the Salt Lake diamond in
previous contests with our home clubs,
but it is obvious that our local players
will have to get down to solid work if
they intend to dispute the championship
of the Denvers this summer. AS arranged
at present the Denver team will be: Pitch
er, Lew Marion; catchers, E. c. Brown,
Oscar P. Davis; first base, Thomas P.
McAndrews; second base, Leon Dallas !;
third base, David Butler; short field and
captain, K. F. Ross; left field. John
Ryan centre field, Fred Drexler; right
field, J. NJ Davis, VIM. Butler.
Butte has also nine of first-class ma
terial, and is doing some loud talking
However, Notwithstanding the imported
professionals" in both the Denver and
Butte clubs, nine could be organized
here that ought to have serious claim
upon the championship; in fact, if COM
petent management would undertake to
get our best local men together and organ
ize them, Salt Lake could hold the pen
nant against all corners.

The "Rapid" Concentration Tact

A test of the "Rapid" ore concentration
was made yesterday afternoon at the Salt
Lake foundry before number of our
local mining men. Two lots of ore were
put through with the following results
The first lot of l53 pounds assayed % per
cent. lead and 1856 ozs. in. silver, and
from this 90 pounds of concentrates were
obtained assaying Sc per cent. lead and
5.25 ozs. in silver; the second lot, of $40
pounds, crushed to pass through 80, 40,
and 20 screen, gave 148 pounds of con-
centrates assaying SO per cent in lead and
5.25 ozs. IN silver. The test is not claimed
to be thorough one by any means, and
will be supplemented by other runs in
short time. The "Rapid" must have
some good points, as the results attest.

ON A "TEAR."
Two soldiers stabbed by a COmra"e
Last Night.

A large number of the "boys in blue"
were in town last night, having come
down to get rid of the surplus cash which
they received yesterday. Along between
9 and 10 O'Clock last night number OF
half-drunken soldiers collected in and
about the Park saloon, opposite the
Theater. Two of them, named Boggs
and Synder, engaged in dispute, which
ended in fight. Snyder, seeing that he
was getting worsted, drew a knife and
slashed at Boggs several times, intilctlng
two wounds in the shoulder. Another
soldier then tried to take the knife away
from Snyder, but the latter turned and
cut at him in vicious manner, infiicting
a frightful cash nearly four inches long
on the back of the head. Both OF the
wounded soldiers were taken to DIR. Bene-
diets office, where DIR. King dressed their
wounds and forwarded them to the Fort.
Snyder made for the alley back of the
saloon, where he was found by officer
Salmon, who had to show his little "per-
suader" before the desperate man could
be induced to give himself up. He was
taken to the city jail for the night. An
other soldier who was present at the
fight INDUCED in considerable abuse OF
the police officers and was run in to cool
off 80

seTHE CHAUTAUQUA."
An Interesting Meeting Held last
Evening.

1t is pleasing fact to note that In all
the hustle and tussle of everyday life,
there are some who care to lay aside their
business tolls and devote some little time
to the study of literature and science.
This is what the members OF the Chau-
tauqua Literary and Scientific Circle are
doing, and their meeting last evening at
the residence of Mr.. John Dull was a
splendid exhibition of the result OF their
labors. The evening was devoted to Ad-
Olson; his life, times, and writings. Be-
lections from his works were read by
Miss Lowe, Miss Rud and Mr.. Henry
Lawrence. These interspersed with songs,
instrumental music and the two ably
written papers, ''The Time of Addison, :"
by Miss Van Voorhis, and "Addison's
Delineation of Woman's Character" by
Mrs. Dull, caused the hours to pass rapid
ly away, and all went away unanimous
in their praise of the meeting as an in
structive and entertaining one. - .
"The Chautauqua" meets every week,
and the topics discussed embrace every
thing that is instructive and beneficial.
Rev. Mr.. Tiff is President of the Circle,
Mr.. Hall Vice-President, and Miss Sadie
Reed, Secretary. An invitation to the
reading public to join theirranks is always
standing, and the fact that it is constantly
being taken advantage of shows that the
work done by the Circle has good influ-
ence. Meetings will be held until the
end of June, when the Circle will disband
for a three-months' vacation, resuming
their labors again in the fall.
