CARLETON's ENGAGEMENT.
A Big Rush for Seats This Morn.
ing-MfkadO Has the Prefer.
ence Over NanOn.

The Walker Opera House lobby was
well filled this morning when the box

week, and the best seats for the first
night of "The Mikado" were soon dis.
posed of, the interest yet manifested in
that opera seeming to overshadow Genee's
charming creation of ''Nanon," in which
the company will open next Monday
night. However, there is little doubt OF
the latter piece creating the same furOre
here that it has in the east, for it is such
series of pretty pictures, pretty girls,
and has such delicious waltz strain rum
ming through it, that the effect is ire
sistible. When played in P Philadelphia the
Evening Telegraph criticised it as follows
The company that surrounds Mr..
Carleton is an exceptionally capable,
clever and well-drilled one, prepared for
excellent all-round work. Mr.. Carleton
himself is SO well known that it is only
necessary to say that in his acting, and
especially in his singing, as the Marquis
d Aubigne, he appears to as much adj
vantage as he has ever done in the past.
He sang the serenade delightfully."-, and it
was received with deserved enthusiasm.
Miss Louise E. Paullin, the Nanon of the
company, is a pleasant actress, with
voice fully equal to the demands of the
occasion. Everything is made to go with
smoothness and dash, the choruses,
especially, being strong and effective, and
even the drum corps was a charming fea-
ture, introducing the most coquettish of
young :ladies in red tights OF graceful
proportions. The company is exceedingly
well dressed. and when assembled on the
stage for the grand climaxes presented
dazzling and lively spectacle. 'Nanon" is
to be continued throughout the week land
those who assist at its presentation will
find it to be thoroughly enjoyable. 1t is
the best comic opera seen here since the
days of madame Angot's' popularity,
and Carleton's company is without peer
in the comic opera line.

Discharging the Conductors.

A special dispatch to the Denver News
from Pueblo, dated December LIST, says
The sensation in railroad circles is the
continued discharge of conductors and
other employees on all branches of the
Denver & Rio Grande. Last night a
spotter was discovered by railroad men
on a train coming from Leadville, and
was severely beaten. He would probably
have Jared still worse had he got off at
Salida, where he was expected to stop.
1t is stated that nearly all of Superintend-
ent Cooks men at Leadville have had to
go. To-day nine men were discharged
on the first division between Denver and
Salida and Denver and Alamosa, includ-
ing not only conductors but brakemen.
There have been several promotions of
brakemen and freight conductors to the
places made vacant.

Emma Nevada will arrive in Austin,
Nevada, to-day, and great preparations
for grand reception to the little artistic
who has now achieved worldwide fame,
and who ranks with the greatest of living

zens OF that mining camp. A
brass band will meet her at the

be fireworks in the evening. And vet.
talking to a gentleman in this CITY who
formerly lived in Austin, he said to

like yesterday when Emma Nevada was
playing around his cabin and she had to
be spanked to keep her from running
around to hear negro play the banjo.
And Nevada probably remembers the
incident.

Cocaine and Aumsthetics Generall,

Cocaine and An@sthetics Generally
The melancholy results of experiments
with the use of cocaine upon the nerves
and the mind Of a local physician are
emphatic in condemnation of the abuse
| of this new anasthetic. 1t is a, virulent
| poison, and it will be fortunate for his
family and himself if this, it's first victim
| in this country of the cocaine habit, shall
enjoy recovery. The properties OF the
leaf whence this drug is extracted are
well known to the natives of South
America, but they are new here. What
ever the chemical differences, the results
OF the employment of this drug justify its
classification with the deadly poppy.
Judicious use of anesthetics and of
alcoholic stimulants may be attended
with desirable results. The danger to
the patient lies in the possibility of a Gre
ated appetite, whose cravings are irresist-
lble if a pain-plagued patient lack decided
mental and physical stamina. The opium
or morphine habit, the choral and alco-
holic habit, number their victims by the
tens of thousands. Momentary snrcease
OF sorrow or of physical anguish has been
purchased at a terrible cost, for the suffer-
ing which it was sought to avoid was
nothing compared with the long night of
nervous arrangement and mental cropping
which precedes the final happy release of
a victim of these delusive poisons. In
the light OF the death they have caused
and the woe they have entailed, it may
be questioned whether the discovery OF
anesthetics has been boon to the human
family.
The safe rule, however, is obvious. The
gifts OF nature must be used in modera-
ton. Their abuse invariably begets mis-
cry. Great responsibility devolves in
this connection upon physicians, who
should debate whether their patients
ought not to suffer temporary pain rather
han procure deliverance at the possible
lost of a wrecked life. The PHYSICIANS
knowledge of the character of his patient
should govern his prescription of an
esthetIcs. The introduction of new drugs
hould be made cautiously, for physi-
ally, as mentally, it is better to suffer the
lis we have than fly to others that we

THE PROVO .TwINKLER'sv SAY
A Dirty Little Sheet That Goes One
Better Than the ssDeseret News"

COLLINS act in shooting down reputa-
BILE citizen is evidently encouraged by the
gang who assume to run this Territory, -
says the Provo Enquirer of Tuesday.
"The fact is made clear" continues this
vile, measly libel on journalism, ''that as
long as Mormon is the victim Judge
Zane's satellites mean to countenance
cold-blooded murder in this Territory.
The very first thing the We cll Collin did,
after perpetrating his bloody act, was to
rush to Marshal Ireland for protection
from the officers OF the law and justice,
and the Marshal in turn secreted the
assassin in a United States courthouse
against being lawfully arrested. Is there
place anywhere but in Utah where such
thing would be tolerated or endured
We say, No! Anywhere else but in Utah
Marshal Ireland would have been swung
up to the nearest lamp post, within
twenty minutes after he gave utterance to
such defiant language, with the dastardly
assassin for company.
And yet they say the Mormons are not
law-abiding Be careful, gentlemen, how
far you go in testing their endurance.
Men-if they are Mormons-are but
human, and there are bounds to human
endurance. Seeing that you are your
selves multiplying and defying the laws of
your country and viciously depressing the
weak and helpless, the time possibly may
come when those who are so oppressed,
realizing your own unfitness and un-
worthiness, will arise, take the law into
their own hands, and deal out such Justice
to you as the circumstances may de-

The Nobility of Work.

Didst ever thou watch the stars of the night
Or the sun that diffuses his bright shining
light?
Didst ever thou think what their mission is
How they all fill their place in the infinite
sphere?
Didst ever thou see them stand still for a
wink,
And bring on disorder by sev'ring link
In the Universe's system of worlds great and
small,
Thus causing chaos-and planets to fall?
No; surely thou didst not! They all fill their
place
With precision and order in limitless space.
Then CLEAN from these bodies a lesson sub
lime,
That Tor work of good purpose all must give
their time;
That naught in creation is made to lie still,
If they follow the ruling of Gods divine
will. ST.

Counting Their Chickens. Etc.

In a mining camp several old miners,
who had for many years been living a
rough, frontier life, were discussing what
they would do when they had made their
piles and could return with riches to the
States. WE'LL" said one grizzly old
veteran, 81 know what I'll do. I'll 90 as

ity has brought with it such success that
it has just entered "new home" de-
scribed as being one of the finest news
paper offices in the country. All this is
not to be wondered at, however,
when the fact is mentioned that
Senator Frank Cocknell is the
owner OF the Times, a gentleman
whose ability as an editor is supplemented
by splendid record as one of Missouri's
iavorite Senators, and who, it appears, is
now candidate for denomination. Seven
years ago Mr.. Cockrell ran for Governor
OF Missouri, and was defeated by half a
vote, but elected to the Senate of the
United States the year afterward. His
straight Democratic record in that august
body entities him to the confidence of the
Missourians, and at this distance it looks
as though any trivial opposition which he
is meeting with will only be sufficient to
make the Senatorial campaign interest

AMONG THE SPORTS.
Smith Knocks Out Charleston in
the Smuggling Match Last Night.

The attendance, made up of the sport
ing class in the community, was only fair
at the Pavilion, last evening, to witness
an exhibition of the "manly art" and
other athletic sports. The entertainment
was opened by two amateurs sparring
a round, and then Fitzgerald and White,
Of Fort Douglas, had three-round bout,
in which Fitzgerald showed himself the
superior boxer.
Some interesting Indian club swinging
followed, after which White, of the Fort,
and man from Butte made things lively
for three rounds with the gloves. Their
sparring was good, but White came out
worsted by the Butte man.
A rough-and-tumble set-to between
couple of our country's defenders from
the Fort was very amusing, and nearly
ended in row, with "bare knuckles to
the finish" Timely interference by the
spectators put a stop to the doughty fell
lows.
The principal feature of the evening
was at this time commenced, it was the
contest between the two heavy-weights,
Smith and Charleston, both of California.
The fight was with four-ounce gloves,
Queensbury rules, and for $4OO a side
the best man to win, of course. Fitz-
gerald, of Fort Douglas, was chosen
referee.
In the first and second rounds Smith
succeeded in flooring Charleston, but struck
him each time in such way as to call
cries of "foul" from the crowd. The
referee, however, ruled in Smiths favor.
The two men kept at their work with
spirit and great force, until in the ninth
round, when Smith dealt his antagonist
fearful blow full in the face, which
knocked him to the ground and out of
time. This ended the fight, the victory
of which was accredited to Smith.

AN ELECTRIC SUCCESS.
Successful Trips Made by the New
Cable Cars in Denver-It Could
ReIntr0duced I'm Salt Lake.

The first really successful attempt a
trial trips of the new cable car was made
yesterday afternoon over portion of the
track of the Denver Electric and Gable
Railroad on Fifteenth street, says the
Denver News of Wednesday. The Cal
ran q considerable distance and at the
satisfactory rate of eight miles an hour.
A dynamo of 2O-horse power furnishes
the motive power for the car. Qnite a
large number of prominent citizens took
rides on the car yesterday. Professor S.
H. Short, of the Denver University, has
worked very hard to make his invention
success, and his efforts seem to be al
ready reaping their reward. The COM
pany have hoped to get their cars running
in six weeks or a month. The car which
is now being used in making trial trips is
shaped and fitted up very much like an
ordinary street car, and is fully as hand
some in its style and appointments as
any street car ever used in Denver. It
was made by Woeber Brothers, of West
Denver, The dynamo and other ma
chinery which is located in building
near the corner of Fifteenth and fremont
streets, and which is used to propel the
car, was made by F. NJ Davis, OF Den
yer, and all the plant and material used
by the company will be of Denver manu-
facture. Ex-Governor John Evans, w.
N. Byers, Rodney Curtis, and other we'll
known Denver gentlemen, ARE among the
officers and directors of the new com
pany. Some further trips will be made
by the car to-day, and large numbers of
people will undoubtedly visit Fifteenth
street just below the court house and be-
tween fremont and Glenarm streets, and
inspect the invention and its workings for

Something Needed in Every Ward.

In the show window of Careless music
store there is skeleton violin, the first
ever brought to Utah. 1t is an ingenious
contrlyance, used solely for practicing.
The tone is SO light and delicate that
when played in room the sound cannot
be heard in an adjoining apartment, but,
nevertheless, the tone is clear and dis
tlnct. 1t is especially adapted to begin
ners, as they can play on it at home
without torturing even the members of
their own families. 1t is splendid con-
trivance. The public would rejoice if
Mr. Careless would import dumb
cornet.

probable that Salt Lake would have been
the rock on which the company would

such racket in this city. They were a
