VERY IMPORTANT.


| TIE HERALD respectfully directs the
attention Of its readers, this morning
to telegram which appears in another
column. It is dated at Philadelphia,
and is the soul-stirring and heart
rending account of an almost tragic
event which transpired in the City of
Brotherly Love. Miss Helen Foster
whether blonde or brunette the enter
prising reporter fails to say-wss crimp-
ing her hair for an evening entertain
ment, and it is presumed was curling
those struggling locks at the back OF the
neck which are now things of beauty,
but which we're once mere ugly "scold-
ing locks" the young lady was employ
ing that old-time curling implement,
the heated soapstone slats pencil, which
she carelessly dropped, the super-hot
bit falling down the back of her neck,
slowly vending and burning its way
along mysterious and forbidden
territory, until it found Judgment
in the region of the waist. The dispatch
tells Us that Miss Fosters back i
scanned with rows of red, uely-lookiDg
blisters, from the shoulders to the
waist" The telegram fails to say
whether or not the lady will recover,
but it is presumed that she is not likely
to die, inasmuch as no bulletins have
been received telling of her condition.
The HERALD calls special attention to
this precious bit of news because it Is
d enled important that all our readers
should know that Miss Helen Fosters
back was burned by slate pencil. In
this connection we, in behalf of the
great American newspaper reading
public, tender heartfelt thanks to the
Associated Press, and its Philadelphia
agent for their general and special
enterprise in giving to the world this
valuable and startling piece of in.
formation. In advance we also thank
the same party for telling Us when the
next Philadelphia girl stubs her toe.

WHEE THE Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers declared war against the
G. B & O., some of the officials of the
organization declared that the surplus
fund was large-enough to carry on
the strike Cor six months, and that
members of the BrothsI hood we're, as
rule. in good circumstances. 1t has
Just trsnspired that the surplus has
been exhausted for the support of the
strikers, and an assessment has been
levied to keep up the fight. Some time
ago Chief Arthur said that strikes
mean assessments and assessments
mean death" 1t is likely that the
Burlington affair will demonstrate the
correctness of the chiefs words, for it
begins to look as if the mistake of strik-
ing might cost the Brotherhood its life.

HATS OFF.

When TIE HERALD suggested that
during the Booth Barrett engagement,
at the Theatre the ladies would appear
without hats. it believed the dear crea-
lures wo1]1 accede to the request, and
for the good of their short-bodied
sisters and brothers would leave those
wonders of the milMaers' taste and
inventive genius at home. We were
not Disappointed our trust and
confidence in the goodness OF
the sex were not misplaced,
for many of the uitra-fashionable
actually appeared without hats or bon
nets. Everybody appreciated their
kindness, their consideration, and their
self sacrificing, for it is great sacrifice
on the part Of lady 10 leave in the
fband-box enc of those elegant struc-
lures OF silk, lace and feathers, aud GO

hundred other ladies who are eagerly
looking for new hats, and who are apt

financially, by the elegance and
conspicuousness of her bonnet.
But, bless their dear sculs, the ladies
yielded to the pubic solicitation and
went without hats, and there was ssss
craning OF necks. less mental profani "
at having the stage eclipsed. and more
real comfort than one has ssen in the
Theatre for long time.
Now, the scheme WorSed so WIZ and
gave such good satisfaction, why would
it not.be an excellent thing to abandon
hats altog ether in the parquetts and
dress circleY In the first class theatres
OF Europe hats are not permitted to be
worn in the best parts of The house, the
most gorgeous production of the milIiner
not being admitted, though worn by the
handsomest or wealthiest lady in the
land. The rule has been established by
the managers for the protection OF their
patrons. Of course, nc such arbitrary
order would be submitted to in free
America, and mUch less In The 'roEd1'
west" but we believe the ladies of Salt
Lake twill voluntarily adopt the sug-
gsstion, and thus become public bene-
factors. and set al example TO the ladies
Of other cities.
However, in this connection it
may be remarked thai there
is something for the Theatre
management to do. a place
should BE- provided where ladies' hats
and wraps can be left during the per
Torrance, and recovered without
difficulty or unnecessary deiay at the
close Of the play. Think the matter
over, ladies and management, and let
Us see if the high hat nuisance cannot
be abolished in the Salt Lake Theatre.

SECURE 4 HOME IN THE IlND Or FlONRs
DINSMORE!

~ Nolf1 " IN IL
One of the growing towns of the
South, is situated on both sides of
Savan alb, Florida & Western
Railroad, just twelve miles from
Jacksonville, Fla. 1t is high, dry
and level, and a successful horti-
cultural and truck-growing section
of the State. Dinsmore can be
easily reached from Jacksonville by
railroad, by water route, or by an
hour and half drive over an excel
lent plank and shell road.
Dinsmore is not one of the isola-
ted spots that is only laid out on
paper, but thriving prosperous
town that recommends itself to
capitalist and laborer, to fathers
and wives who are vigilant over
their own interests and the welfare
of their children, to those who are
seeking homes and those who have
capital to invest for speculation.
The land can be obtained at re.
markably low figures and on terms
suitable to the condition of every
purchaser. At the present low
figures a poor man can make regu-
lar payments on valuable home
with less than the aggregate of
unnecessary expense or money act
ually thrown away. 1t is an in
veStment that one cannot regret
and through which you will realize
many times the amount invested.
The prices are for Front Business
Lots one acre, S65, $50, S35. Sec
ond choice, S25 SIS. Third choice
SIS. Fourth choice $40. Fifth
choice, SIS. 1t must be remember.
ed that these are acre lots.
We also have vegetable and
truck farms laid out adj cent to
Dinsmore, containing from five to
sixteen acres each, which We offer
for the benefit of those who wish to
farm at S5 acre.
Our terms are one fourth cash
and balance in one, two and three
years.
The chain of title will be short
and strong. 1t is from the State OF
Florida to the Railroad and from
the Railroad to you.
sTruck farming around DlnsmOre
would be at the door of two Cf the
greatest markets in the South. Let
every poor man if with but one
dollar, commence to buy lot in
Dinsmore. The fare from Jackson
vile and return is only twenty-five
cents. Think of it. There art
eight passenger trains per day All
the round trip will only cost TWEEN
ty-fve cents. Trout creek, a large
stream passes right through the
vicinity, thus affordiug pure fresh
water for stock, perfect drainage
and abundance of fish.
TAKE WARNING NOW, aud
do not let this grand opportunity
slip you. 1t is the very best chanco
you will have TO secure a good
piece of valuable property aud such
startling prices.
The merchants in Dinsmore art
enjoying a good trade and the
town is rapidly growing. Saw
mills are convenient for securing
timber to build, and laborers who
desire work can get from a dollar
} and a half to two dollars per day

FARM AND FIREsIDE.

If worms attack the boxes of honey
that have been removed from the hive
they should be fumigated with sulphur
and then well aired.
When potatoes are well ripened no
advantage will be found by leaving
them in the ground, but if left there
may be serious loss by rotting.
! Rice Meringue: One cupful of hot,
boiled rice, three cupfuls of milk, three
fourths of a cupful of sugar, one table,
spoonful of corn-starch, the yelks of
two eggs, and one teaspoonful of
vanilla. Heat the rest and add rice.
Bake and add meringue of whites of
two eggs.
If it pays for a man to have his own
food cooked that it may be the more
quickly eaten and easily digested. why
not also cook the food for farm animals,
particularly for the hog, an animal said
to have a stomach more nearly resem-
bling that of a man than has any other
domestic animal.
I'm early fall great many prema-
ture and worm-affected apples are con-
stantly falling to the ground. The best
of these will pay to dry in the evapor-
ator, and will not only furnish evapor-
ator apples for home use, but also a
very profitable marketable product. If
the orchard is SO inclosed that hogs can
be turned in and out at any time, the
inferior wormy fruit can be eaten by
them, and a great many destructive in
sects destroyed.
Chocolate Cream Pudding: Bake
in layers, cake made of one and one
half cupfuls of sugar, one-half of a
cupful of milk, two cupfuls of -four,
the whites of four eggs beaten stiff,
one and one-half teaspoonfuls of bak-
ing powder. Spread with boiled icing
made with whites of two eggs. Take
out half the icing and add to it one
fourth of cake of melted chocolate,
and spread with dark icing and with
the white over each layer.
The sanitary condition of child s
sleeping-room should be as near per-
feet as it is possible to make it. II
must be so situated that the direct
rays Of the sun can enter for certain
period each day. Its internal arrange
ments should be of the simplest char
acter consistent with convenience. As
little furniture as possible should be
the rule, and comparatively bare walls
and floors are far healthier than when
adorned with pictures and covered
with carpets. A stationary basin,
draining into the sewer is positively
forbidden.
