MITKIEWITZ AGAIN.
He Bobs Up to Explain Chinese Polit-
icaI Tactics.

New YORK, September 10-Count
Mitkiewitz said to a reporter: II speak
with absolute knowledge when I say
that up to yesterday noon, there was
no official notification of the rejection
of the treaty, now under consideration
by the government at Pekin. Minister
Denby's services, concerning the treaty
thus far amounted to nothing, because
he is in the mountains near Pekin and
Of the acceptance or rejection of the
ton at Washington received full
government favors the treaty, the
subject is one which very few Anne
ricans understand. One hundred
thousand of the Chinese immigrants to
this country are from Canton and
Hong Kong. where the British govern
ment is virtually in control. The
enormous population in the interior
have no desire to leave the country.
The government favors the restriction
of immigration simply because it will
affect the English interests in Chlna
and not it's aim. The English govern
ment does not favor the restriction
and its agents are now and have
been active in efforts to make
American progress appear ridiculous in
the eyes of China and so hamper and
embarass the administration of Ameri-
can enterprise and American capital in
the Emperor's dominions. 1t surpri ~es
me that this subterfuge has not been
discovered before. The British will
leave nothing undone to retain their
supremacy. The Chinese Government
wants railroads. It favors an American
system in preference to the English. 1t
knows we can build better roads and
faster than England. 1t is not diff
cult therefore that American capital
will find profitable investment in China.

Oracular IXiOn /,

The magnanimity of the Republican
party, as translated from the book of
King James:
We, the the Republican party, pro-
pose to stop the diurnaI motion of the
earth, it being on the free list. And to
further protect ourselves and the labor
ing classes of America, it is hereby re-
solved by King James and his fellow
immigrants to green pastures and fat
offices, that the sun be excluded by a.
protection screen from landing upon
our shores until the revenue due our
august society be paid in full. And we
hereby command the Congress of the
United States to strike from the cslen-
der of time the winter months, so as TO
protect honest labor from cold and
hunger that usually happens about tha'
time
P. S.-An persons interested nav
call at the White House after N0yem-
Der. The Democratic door keeper
may be able to inform callers of the
time of our return, which cannot take
place until the commencement of the
millennium, by which time we shall be
converted to Democracy, and be
nermitted to take our seat among the
honorable of the land. IxIoN.

COMES HOWE WITH RoNoRs !
Mr.. F. L. Ac,urliu Rapld Work
at Chicago.


Mr.. +. E. McGurrin, official reporter
of the Third District Court. arrived
nome sunday evening, after an absence
of coup g of months in the east, where
he Las been paralyzing the natives with
his rapid and correct work on the type
writer. Speaking of his latest work, a
Chicago paper has the following:
Frank E. McGurrin of Salt Lake City,
cracked the record of fast type-writing
at the Methodist church block last
night Mr.. McG1rrin is on his way home
from the east, and the exhibition last
night was given ct the request of
number of expert Chicago ,ypewriters
and stenogrsphers, who were little
skeptical that the speed accredited to
McGurr!n could he attained Their
breath was fairly tasen away when the
expert raGtled off l25 words from new
matter in one minute, and made but
three errors. In writing Mr.. McGurrin
uses ali bis fingers except the lett
thumb. MISS NJ. E. Orr, of New York,
who ranks next to McGurrin uses only
the foretiDger Of each hand. AS the
natural method would appear to De the
use of all the fingers, MISS Orr's speed
appears all the more remarkable.
The first exercise last night was one
minute exhibition. Mr.. McGurrin read
his own copy and wrote 1t5 words. Ii
the second minute exercise 10S words
were written. he third exercise was
fye-minute test. The ma ter was
new and was dictated by L. s. Dement,
from an extract OF court trial. 1t was
difficult matter, but the operator
warmed up and at the end of the five
minutes had written 583 words. making
thirty-seven errors. A deduction for
errors left net average of LIS words
minute. In the recent interna
tional contest at Toronto, which was
won by Miss Orr, McGurrin being sec
ond, the average in the iYe-minute con-
test was 98.7 words q minute, the fast
est time made up to that date. Since
that time, however, at Lake George,
McGurrin attained q speed of 108 :
words minute. That was the hest
known record in the world up to las {
night. While the LIS words minute
beat the Lake George time, the next
performance eXcelled even that and
carried the spectators away. 1t was q
blindfold test of one minute. Mr.. De-
ment carefully tied handkerchief
about the operators eyes and began
debating new matter from court
record. At the first click of the ma
chine the judges began noting the time
At the end of minute time was called,
ard after the words were counted it
was found the marvellous feat of writ
ing 125 words in a minute had been at
tanned. But three errors were made
and the matter was properly punclu-
ated. The announcement was greeted
with enthusiastic hand clapping, and
all the typewriters rushed forward to
shake hands with the expert. Mr.. Nc
Gurrin is very modest, and was inclined
to credit the success of the last feat to
the correct manner in which the mat
ter was dictated. A Remington ma
chine was used. The judges were F.
w. Ganse, 400 First National Bank
Building, and G. Bayless, of Dubuque,
Iowa."

AMUSEM ENTS.
THE RUNGARIANs.

There was only very sparse audi
ence at the Theatre last night, but Salt
Lake music lovers who were absent will
feel more than chagrined when they
learn of the fine entertainment they
missed. The Hungarian Band is a
unique organization and the full, bril-
liant yet delicate and tender mannsr in
which its selections are dashed off, give
an effect most entertaining. Like their
half wierd Hungary, their airs have a
certain wild strangeness that is half
their charm, but when the musicia MS
come down to tackling Strauss, Suppe
or an English ballad they are all such
superb artists that if it were detach-
ment of Gilmore or Thomas men they
could not play more accurately. Every
performer is a decided master of his
instrument. The principal features
were the Paloma with variations, per-
formed on the orphanium, penetrat-
ing instrument like the organ
only capable of greater variety
by Herr Rosner; a cymbal
solo rendered by Mr.. Herdevari and a
picolo solo by A. Logar; the Poet and
Peasant overture; the Hungarian ma
tional dance and the potpourri of Ger
man songs were the main features by
the whole company. The applause was
voclferous and nearly all the selections
were encored. Another novel feature
was the painting of landscape in oil
by Signor Carlo, done before the ewes
of the audience in eleven minutes. It
was wonderfully skillful performance,
Wire was little too much of the same
order of thing in the programme, and
the advertised slack wire walkers failed
to appear, but musicians and amateurs
were in raptures long as it was.
