The Juvenile Instructor il now twenty-one
years old. Wonder if it will reform now
that it has reached maturity and ought to
know better.
The Theatre box office opened this morn
ing for the sale of spectators tickets for the
grand concert and ball to be given there to-
morrow night. The gallery seats are going
at rapid rate.
The Cheyney-Tolmie Concert Company is
booked for the Theatre on Monday and
Tuesday evenings next. They bring with
them the praises of Eastern critics, and
promise to give an excellent musical enter
tainment.
The arch of the main entrance to the Cul-
len building was to-day completed by the
wedging in of the key stone. 1t is the hand
soonest piece of stone work to be seen in
Utah, and is a standing compliment to Mr..
kletting's taste.
Babcock IL Co. have arranged with the Salt
Lake steam laundry to send down the linen
of the Butte boys for cleansing. Popular
prices will be charged, the work will be done
rs promptly as at home, and it will be of the
best character, without any Chinese odor
about it.-Ihter Mountain
A band of genuine gypsies passing through
town to-day attracted no little attention.
1t consisted of the usual beautiful maiden
couple of old hays, two young bucks, a
small band of horses and a cadaverous look
ing dog. They will doubtless camp some
where on the outskirts of town and make
big money on telling Apex stockholders just
when to sell.
Hawthorne, the polygamist, was brought
up from the Pen Yesterday morning
and sat silently with Mr.. Miller in
the Marshal's office all day long, only to be
returned at night. He was brought in
again this morning and sat around impa-
tiently awaiting the commencement of his
trial. He doesn't look very hopeful and
can hardly be expected to keep up his spirits
with the images of three wives staring him
in the face.
Edward Tullidge, the historian who re-
Gently finished his work upon Salt Lake
City, last evening received his appropriation
from the City Council and this morning
went on big tear. He was raked in by q
heartless cop, who seemed to have no sym
pathy for the jubilant author, and was taken
before the bar of Justice He pleaded guilty
and was relieved of So out of the appropria-
tion. If this thing keeps up, it will not be
long before the city gets all the money
back.
A span of horses started from near the
Twentieth ward schoolhouse this morning,
dragging after them an empty wagon. They
turned down First street. slid down the hill
to the foot, whore one of them took short
coast on its side. They were soon on the go
again, and running down through the Eagle
gate they came bang up against telephone
pole. The wagon stopped but the horses
kept up the run and were not stopped until
they had tried a mile heat down the State
road.
The DEMOCRAT learns that Judges Il. n.
Baskin and @. w. Bennett will spend por-
tion of the ensuing winter at Washington
and while there will do all i'll their power to
promote such legislation in Congress as will
place Utah on an equal footing with other
Territories of the United States. Judge
Baskin performed noble service last winter
nett, there is hope that the unfinished work
of the last session will be brought to n salts
factory termination at an early period of the
next.
Isadore Morris, who returned from Wood
River last evening, brought with him hox
of new brand of cigars, which he this
morning presented to Judge Dickson. The
name of the brand is "Clear Grit" and
bears as an appropriate emblem cut taken
from the well-known photograph of Utah's
three Judges, Ex-Governor Murray, Prose-
outor Dickson and ex-Marshal Ireland. Mr..
Morris states that the cigars sell ON the
merits of the picture in the Wood River
country, and there is no doubt that its in
PRODUCTION into this market would give the
importer little boom.
1t is said that quite an industry has been
established by some of the Cow county
brethren in the way of selling Penitentiary-
made brides. Some of the imprisoned
Saints have learned the hair braiding art
from their tougher mates and are allowed to
sell brides and whips to outside parties. A
man gets hold of Il bride made by some
bishop or brother in high standing and then
takes it to the native town of the martyr"
and rallies it off. Everyone is anxious to
take chance in securing a specimen of the
bishops workmanship, and so the trader
has no trouble in taking in two or three
times as much as he pays out, and he then
generally has enough left over to pay his
tithing.
