Roofs of Paper.

A roof pronounced superior to that Of slate,
because Of its lighrness and other advantages,
is now made of any fbrous pulp. From this
material, tiles Of any shape desired are formed
by pressure under machinery, or by any other
method which may suggest itself. Pressed
into the designs wished for, the pulp tiles arc
partially dried, previous to being subjected to
waterproof solution. Thoroughly impreg-
mated with the preparation TO resist moisture,
they are baked TO harden in them the water
proof mixture. After the baking the tiles are
treated to a mixture imparting an enameled
surface; to this is added coating of sand,
whereby the pulp is rendered proof against
the action of heat or fame. By the use of diff
ferent colored sands variety of tints may be
impaired to the tiles, which, after the appIi-
cation of the enameling mixture and sands, are
baked second time, after which they are
ready for use.
Besides the inherent lightness of pulp tiles,
which obviates the necessity of heavy frame
to support weighty roof, the pulp tile, being
tough, and not brittle like slate, is far less
liable to be broken from blows, stones thrown
upon them, or human footsteps. Again, slate
tiles cannot be laid compactly together on o
roof, on account of their brittleness, which
prevents their being drawn tightly together by
nails. Through the fbrous pulp nails may be
driven as close home as in shingles, thereby
binding them closely 10 the bed and together
without any possibility of lateral movement,
or being blown away in a high wind, as states
loosely fastened on roofs so frequently are.
Nails penetrate the pulp tiles more easily than
shingles, and lie closer together, being more
elastic than wood.-BoStoR jour. Com.

Mr.. Tyars, member Of The Byceum COM
psny, tells me that when he was a struggling
provincial actor he played the villain in ia
nous old melodrama called "The Dog ofpMon-
targis. In a sensation scene powerful Amer
lean bloodhound seized him aud tore him 10
the ground at the moment when be was
to murder the heroine OF the story. 81 hated
the part" said the actor, "and. L was glad
when my engagement ended. This blood
hound was a fierce beast. He had been well
praciiced in his part, having played it with
many other actors before l undertook the vii
famous role. A piece of cooked liver was
fastened round my neck. The dog was kept
without food for some hours until the particu-
lar time when be had to jump upon the vii
lain on the stage and seize his supper. He
was held at the wing until the cue came, then
he rushed at me with a bound. | fell for the
convenience of letting him drag away his food
and the curtain went down upon what no
doubt was telling situation"
In modern days the English stage manager
has proved to be far. greater master in the
way of mechanical resources than the French
man. The vampire and other traps are all OF
English invention. The trdppe Anglaise of the
French stage is highly esteemed abroad. II
the modern playwright were half as clever as
their French contemporaries the French stage
would be eclipsed by the English, but the
theatre is more part Of French life than OF
English, and is indeed far better supported
in America than in England. Joseph Hdtion,

Mrs. Partington Herse1f AEain.

Mrs. Partington sat at the refectory table,
her face radiant with satisfaction, her bonnet
hanging by the strings from the back of her
chair, and her benevolent spectacles contem-
plating the surroundings. "What will you be

"Thank you, dear, for your polite attenuation, u

schemes for swelling the fund.

Opi,io,i Of Ahe Court by JUDD, c. J.
This is bill for partition of certain real
estate granted 10 one Nalaweha by Royal Pa
tent No. 1912.
The bill alleges that the premises were con
viewed bv Puuheana, the widow of said Nala-
weha to defendent Lilo, and Kamakaluhi, his
wife, and claims that Kamakaluhi having died
intestate, in 1883, her estate in The land des-
cended, one half to her father, the plaintiff,
Wailelua, and one half to her husband, Lilo.
Tie defendant demurs on the ground that as
the conveyance from Puuheana was to Lilo and
Kamakalnhi, who were husband and wife, on
the death Of Kamakaluhi the entire estate
vested in Lilo, the survivor.
This principle, controlling conveyances to
husband and wife, was settled by this Court IN
the case of Bila as. Pddld1la, 3 Hawn. r. 725,
Qs76).) We see no reason for reversing 1t
now.
Moreover, the title of the plaintiff being dis
puted to this land, it is not proper subject
Of partition. The title of the tenants IN com
mon must be conceded and be at rest between
them, or the Court has no jurisdiction to pro-
coed to partition the estate. II would have
been competent for defendant to have answered
that the title Of plaintiff was disputed and this
would have warranted the Courts dismissal Of
the bill without further discussion.
The bill is dismissed.

We have carefully reviewed the testi-
mony in this case and are of the opinion
that the judgment and decree of MIR. JUS
tice McCully, appealed from should be
sustained
We think it proper to refer to the ad
mission of defendant that he knew of the
debt of Aiau to W p. Akau, and of the
mortgage to secure it at the time he took
the deed In question. As this mortgage
was given for debt overdue and ex-
pressly stated in the mortgage TO be in
consideration of the forbearance of the
company, which w. z. Akau represented
to demand and sue Aiau for the debt, it
furnishes strong evidence that defendant
was aware of the insolvency of Aiau at
that time
The decree is affirmed with costs.

Kicking Against Nnisances.

This morning two prominent merchants
OF Salt Lake called on Marshal Phillips
and complained of the existence of a
most obnoxious nuisance which had been
causing themselves, their families and
the neighbors great deal of annoyance
and alarm during the past few weeks,
and which, they commended, jeopardized,
in a very serious degree, the health Of
the entire neighborhood. Three cases of
diphtheria have developed in the vicinity
quite recently, and there was thought to
be very just and reasonable grounds, the
gentleman stated, for the fears enter
tanned around the neighborhood for the
probable spread of the horrible disease.
The Marshal assured the parties that he
would give the matter his immediate at
tention, and if it should be found that
there existed any nuisance which it was
in the power of the authorities to remove.
an early action would be taken looking to
that end.
From what reporter of the DEMOCRAT
was able to learn of the affair it seems
that the attention of the city officers has
been previously directed to the matter
and that their apparent indifference has
led to determination on the part of the
neighbors living in this locality to take
steps for speedy removal of the trouble.
1t is believed that Marshal Phillips will
give 1t his attention as promised.

FINANCIAL STATUS.
An Inventory Shows the Assets to be
Nearly Equal to the Liabilities.

The assignee has just finished taking
an inventory OF the stock belonging to
ID. Koehler which was last week placed
in the hands of Mr. Geo. A. Luke as
assignee. Mr.. Luke figures up the assets
trifie over what had been at first esti-
mated, but is of the opinion that much of
the stock, if brought into forced sale.
would be subjected to a terrible cutting
down, as very little of it may be consid-
cred as staple articles.
The liabilities which approximate about
$2,O07 comprise quite number of
claims, one of which is said to have
come through the bank this morning in
the shape of draft from Pittsburg
firm, but the principal creditors are the
Continental Oil Company and Messrs.
Pitkin & Brooks, of Chicago. The in
ventory, which embraces everything
which could be possibly used as a re-
source, foots up just $2,O26.SO, a mere
trifie in access of the stated claims, and
it is just barely possible that other claims
may crop up of which nothing is at
present known, although from knowl-
edge of the character of Mr.. Koehler.
this is not looked upon as very
probable. Mr.. Luke will make an
effort to have the business resumed
under its former management in order
that something like reasonable sum
may be realized from the stock, as it is
certain, he thinks, that an auction sale
would result in little more than 25 per
per cent. on cost prices.
1t is probable that when the creditors
are apprised eff the true status and the |
acts above referred to, they will mani
est a disposition to have Mr.. Koehler re-
sumo the business, under some regula-
lions.

From Snake River.

+. s. Chase, who has been spending
several weeks prospecting along Snake
river, has returned to Haley. He re-
ports mining on some of the bars of that
stream to be progressing with profitable
results. Two men exhibited piece Of
gold weighing over five pounds, avoirdu-
pois, which they washed out in thirty
days. On the fifth day of December, Mr..
Chase saw strawberry vines in blossom
on Snake river. The weather down in
that section has been extremely mild
thus far this winter. Stocks on the
various ranges are looking fat and will
probably come out in fine condition in
the spring.
The deepest snow encountered by MIR.
Chase between Snake river and HALEY.
was about seven miles below Blacks
ranch.
There are number of water wheels
being constructed along the Snake river
for the purpose of lifting water to be
conveyed to placer ground. 1t is Mr..
Chase's opinion. however, that none of
these wheels will prove practical, as they
are faulty in construction; and further
more, the speed of the current is too slow
to afford much power.-Hailey Times.
