Barrels. are now being made of hard
and soft wood, each alternate stave being
of the soft variety and slightly thicker
than the hard wood staye. The edges of
the slaves are cut square, and when placed
together to form the barrel the outsides
are even, and there is o v shaped crack
between each stave from top to bottom.
In this arrangement the operation of driy-
ing the hoops forces the edges of the hard
slaves into the soft ores until the cracks
are closed, aud the extra thickness of the
latter causes the inner edges to lap over
those of the hard wood slaves, thus max

All Sorts of Runners Regarding the Chief
Justiceshlp.
WASHINGTON, April 2.--Gossip about a
successor to the late Chief Justice Waite
is taking all manner of forms. The most
Trustworthy diagnosis of the situation,
however, is given to the United Press by
a gentleman who should be able to judge
very closely as to what will probably be
done in the matter, This gentleman's
theory is that Associate Justice Miller,
the senior member of the court, will like
ly act as chief justice until after the presi-
dentiaf election. The reasons for this
theory are that the president will doubt
less hesitate about submitting a name to
the senate at this time, because the bulk
of the work for the present term of the
court is about done; and because the Re
publicans in the senate would likely defer
action on the nomination of a Democrat
during this session in the hope that the
next election would be a victory for their
party, and by non-action they might be
able to place a Republican in the vacant
place of the court.

The great bulk Of the people of Utah

that 30 per cent. of Mormon families own
their own homes. There is no other COM

the necessity for one, in any of the ex-
clusiyelY Mormon settlements. With the
exception of the mines, every other in

t%aurants Of the city bearing Italian names

as eccentric or to be as one among many.

WASHINGTON, April 2.--Regorts from
Michigan, Ohio, Indians, New Jersey,
North Carolina, Kentucky and Tennessee,
indicate that the weather of the past
week has been favorable for crops, al
though the season is reported as late, and
the farm work retarded. Reports from
South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi,
Louisiana, Missouri, Illinois, Nebraska
and Kansas indicate that the weather OF
the week was generally unfayorab1e for
growing crops, although favorable condi,
tons are reported for the latter part of
the week. Farm work in the southern
states has been greatly interfered with
on account of heavy rains, and in some
localities high winds and local storms
have injured crops. Reports from Ar.
kansas indicate that fruit has been in.
jured except on bottom lands. In Louisi-
ana the week is reported as the most un
favorable of the season.
