THE STEPHENS CONCERT.
The Tabernacle Filled With a De-
lighted Audience.

Last evening large crowds gathered
about the gates of the Temple block, inn
patiently awaiting the appointed hour
for the Stephens free concert to com
mence. The doors were thrown open
about I 80, and the large building was
quickly filled. The 500 chorus singers
presented a pretty sight at the head of
the building, grouped about the stage.
Professor Stephens and his class fulfilled
all the expectations of the large gather
ing, and quite handsome contribution
was rendered him, but nothing compared
to his deserts for the untiring energy
with which he has 50 often delighted the
public.
All the songs were of Mr.. Stephens
own composition, and his Mountain
Home, !" My Valley Home" and GOOD
Night" chorus were especially fine. In
giving honor where honor is due, Mr..
Stephens comes in for an abundant share
OF public credit as an enterprising mu-
sician.

THE BELL TELEPHONE RATES.
How the Salt Lake Charges Compare
With Other Exchanges.

The local charges of the Rocky Noun
tain Bell Telephone Company have been
the subject of much remark and discus
sion in Salt Lake for some months past.

many as reason why the Bell company
was undeserying OF patronage and as a
further reason why another company was
needed. The DEMOCRAT has no interest
whatever in the telephone war except
what may subserve the interests of the
public, but IN conversation the other
day with Mr.. Holden, the local manager
OF the Bell company, a DEMOCRAT reporter
was shown some figures to compare with
the rates here. If the Bell is "a monop-
ly and an extortion"-and by the wav

are granted for that purpose-Salt Lakers

than many other cities.

An Ecclesiastical RnlI.

1t has generally been thought thai
Bulls were promulgated by Rome alone
but such is not the case. They do the
same thing in Utah, although there is
nothing terrible attached to them. These
bulls most frequently come from one man
in the Mormon church, namely. Mr..
George Goddard, gentleman well liked
10y all who know him and a general favor
lite with the children. He isthe assistant
superintendent OF the Deseret Sunday
School Union, and as such very ire
quently addresses the children, always
finishing his remarks with some appro
pirate saying as to Christians conduct
Once he had been so addressing the
Union, and he wished to impress upon
them that a true Christian suffers anv
wrong rather than commit one. 50 he
finished his remarks with the following
thinking to much impress the children:
Now, my little children, YOU should
always remember that it is better to suffer
wrong than do right

SUDDEN AND MYSTERIOUS DEATH.
Joseph w. Sayers Dies at the Deseret
Hospital This Morning.

On the 18th inst. a prepossesslng AM
cultured young man, named Joseph W
Savers, registered at the st. James Hotel
in this city, and was assigned to room 36
During the past week he made the &C
quaintance Of many lady and gentlemen
guests about the place, impressing then
favorably with his courteous demeanor
Yesterday afternoon and evening, up t.
II O'Clock, he was seen along Main street
and from all outward appearances was in
/ a normal condition. At 10 o'clock last
night he entered Moore, Allen d Co. E
/ drug store while Mr.. w. Wilson was on
watch. Mr.. A. Manning called in and
asked Mr.. Savers and Wilson TO step
across the street to Coffee Johns and
have some oysters. Mr. Savers thanked
him for the invitation, but replied
that he did not care to eat.
MIR. Wilson and Manning went to
supper, locking the store door, and
returned in about forty minutes. Shortly
after entering the store and while smok-
ing cigar, rap came at the door, and
Mr.. Savers came in staggering. He
dropped his cane on the floor and in
reaching for it fell down, exclaiming
"I'm a little full, boys, but it is seldom |
get in this condition, you know" They
helped him to arise and after reasoning
about what to do with him, Mr.. Wilson
decided to let him occupy his cot in the
rear of the store. Sayers Immediately
fell asleep, and at Z o'clock this morning
he was in the same sound stupor. Gus
toners beginning to arrive the gentle
men concluded it best to remove him to
some more appropriate place, and took
him to j. d. Sprague's stables, back of
the White House, where he was left, as
they state, to ''sober up" from what they
was intoXication.
In the course of an hour or so Mr..
Sprague was engaged to convey him to
the Deseret Hospital. This being done
and no signs of reviving taking place,
Doctors Bowers and Richards were sum-
moned. These gentlemen did all in their
power to arouse him to consciousness,
but in vain; he never moved or spoke a
word, and at 1855 this morning he

SOUTHERN UTAH NEWS.
Frisco, Beaver and Silver iIeef Ex-
change Notes.

The Christy Company's mill, Silver
Reef, worked $50 tons of ore last week,
which averaged about $25 per ton.
Mr.. Dupaix, of Minersville, is taking
out some $3.50 ore from his mine, and has
repaired up the old engine and started his
mill again.
David Levi appeared before the District
Court at Beaver, last Thursday, and plead
guilty of unlawful cohabitation, pledged
himself to obey the Edmunds law and
persuade others to do the same, and was
sentenced to pay fine OF 5000.
The Stormont Company's miners at Sill
yer Reef are engaged in working the
mines. An average of thirty-seven tons
of ore per day was shipped from the com
pany's mines to the river mill during last
week, giving result OF $2,760 worth OF
bullion.
In the Star District Mr.. Campbell has
stopped operations ON the Moscow mine
entirely They have fine body of ore
in the Hickory mine. The excitement in
Star is wanting little; it seems to be on
account of the new works at Milford de-
laying their start up.
The Cave company of Minersville are
shipping ore from their old dump again:
the railroad tariff having come down, it
enables them to ship and save them
selves with small margin. If the rail-
roads had come down on freightS three
years ago, many of the prospects now in
the various mining districts would be
good paying mines, but high tariff has
ruined this country in many respects.
"Have you got any more tender steaks
like that one bought the other day?"
asked Silver Reef man of a butcher.
"Oh yes, plenty. You found it to be
good meat, eh?'' eyes, suits my pur-
pose. am very much annoyed by dogs
at my house. [ have choked one to
death and have my eye on another one.
Let me have half pound, please"
There are thirty chloriders at work on
Tecumseh Hill, Silver Reef. The hill
with its multitudinous prospect holes, !
resembles an immense honey-comb, and
one acquainted with the country would |
suppose that all the ore near the surface,
was gouged out long ago. Yet, some of |
the boys are making good wages, and all |
seem contented. Every now and then a
rich bug-hole is struck which maketh the |
heart of the finder glad, and encourages
others to persevere in their search for
rich pockets.
