boom! One would about AZ soon think
of buying lots In Jerusalem. But the
City Of the Saints really has q well.
defined case Of boom. One potent fac
tor. in it is the beginning Of the emil Of
the Mormon regime in the city. At
the recent election, thanks to the dis.
franchising clause of the Edmunds
law the MOrm0ns were victorious by
the comparatively narrow majority Of
four hundred and eighty. 1t is not
probable that they will ever elect an
other mayor. They are just beginning
to recognize the fact that we have .
government, and are getting very sick
indeed. The city shows little change

THE THINGvALLA
Visited BY Ten Thousand People.

HALIFAX, Aug. Is.
Ten thousand people have already visited
the Danish steamer Thingvalla. The more
the huge hole is seen in the Thing
valla's bow the more wonderful appears the
escape of that vessel and the safety of the
600 people on board. The first bulkhead is
80 back of the stern of the bow. From the
main deck light down to the bow, a depth sof
40 feet, the whole thing is carried away. In
other words the front part of the vessel, 40
feet deep and 80 feet wide, has been cut out.
The iron plates were broken in some places
like glass, in other places bent like wire
The Geiser must have been cut clean in two.
She was less than 40 feet in width and the
Thingvalla must have cut 30 feet into her.
Striking between the engine and the boilers,
the force of the blow was received by the
Thingvalla on her starboard side, as the
plates on that side are cut off even with the
bulkhead, while the jagged edges are still
standing six or seven feet from the bulkhead
on the port side. The force of the blow
must have been tremendous. Both steamers
were going at full speed.
The port warden and representative of
Lloyd's held n survey and ordered that the
Thingvalla be discharged and placed on the
marine slip for further examination, as it is
impossible to tell what the. extent of the
damage line is under the water line. twill
take three or four days to discharge the car
go, and it will require at least two months
on the slip to make good the damage. When
this is accomplished the cargo will be reload
ed and taken by the steamer to its destination
in New York. She will be repaired here,
and the expense will be $50, 900.
The schooner Capio, which accompanied
the steamer to this port, was paid $500 fol
her services and proceeded to sea. The
agreement was for $500 and the agents paid
an extra 81 90 to be distributed amoug the
crew.
