WARM NIGHT GARMENTS.
Thin Bed Gowns Most Injudicious During
 Winter Weather.

Winter Weather.
 When the air is cold and the weather in- element it is the general custom to wear garments of extra thickness and warmth, and to sit round roaring fires. But, asks Health, on going to bed, what takes place! In nincty-nine cases out of one hundred, people pass from the warm living-rooms into chilly bedrooms. As if the sudden change from extreme heat-for there can be little doubt that what with fires, gas and insufficient ventilation people are in the habit of breathing an atmosphere the tenn perature of winch is considerably higher than it should hygienically be-to excessive cold is not sufficiently absurd, they proceed to diveSt themselves of their several warm garments, to garb themselves in thin linen night sh rts, and to consign their heated bodies to the cooling influence of unsympa- thetic sheets Conventionality has habitu- ated one to the custom; but really scuous contemplation of it can not fail to make the utter absurdity of the custom clearly apparent.
 The Chinese, from whom many useful les sons have been learnt by more civilized na- ions, can give us wrinkle on this subject. ohn Chinaman sleeps in the same kind of clothes as he wears in the daytime, the 'aSy GIi. ioWng garments to which he IS duic;ed allowing of this without causing inconvenience.

PROF. YOUNGER'S EXHIBITION.
A Feast of Grace and Beauty at the Opera
House Last Evening.

A Feast of Grace and Beauty at the Opera
House Last Evening.
The large audience that assembled at the
opera house last evening scarcely expected
to see such a brilliant entertainment. I'M
mediately after the rise of the curtain a
bevy of sixteen of Sat Lakes finest
daughters, accompanied by an equal
number of gentlemen, appeared upon
the floor, and for The next twenty
i've minutes kept up such a whir,-
ing. threading, marching series of graceful
evolutions, that ones head was quite in a
whirl with it all The ladies were all
dressed in white, and wore large garlands
of roses. The gentlemen were in full even
ing dress, and were fairly stunning in their
get-up The dance was called the
Floral Grand. and is of the professors own
origination. Following this, which re
reived much hearty applause, came High
land fling by four little girls dressed as
,rtible Scots. Next came Sailors horns
pipe by Master Claude Williams, a Scotch
dance by four small girls and Fisher
hornpipe by Miss Jean Groo, at the close of
which the young lady was fairly smothered
IN bOquets of flowers. \ dance put down
as a pastorile came reXt, performed by two
girls and Il boy, which was very neatly
done. a Highland fling by four boys, and
a few sample fancy dances by the older
ladies' and gentlemen completed the exhi-
bition proper. From then till l O'Clock the
audience or as many as cared to remain,
filled up the floor and danced to the excel
lent music of OlscnS band. From first to
last the entertainment was an artistic and
financial success

A 60 Or NO COZ
Is the Inauguration Anniversary a Legal
Holiday or Not?

/
Holiday or Not?
Some business houses OF Salt Lake and
more especially the banks, are taking a
lively interest in the question as to whether
Tuesday, April Both, the hundredth ami
versary of the Inauguration of George
Washington, is legal holiday or not. If it
is, all paper falling due on that day will be
presented on the Goth, and ifunpaid will go
to protest if the endorsers are to be held.
The only doubt in the matter seems to
have arisen from the fact that in making
his proclamation, President Harrison did
not contain any direct order that the day
should be observed rs a legal holiday.
His language was 1.-THE centennial of this
illustriCus event II cur history has been
declared a general holiday by act of Con
gress, to the end that the people of the
whole country may join in commemorative
exercises appropriate to the day" Further
on the proclamation simply says: Il do
recommend that on Tuesday, April 30, at
the hour of 9 o'clock in the morning the
people of the entire country repair to their
respective places of divine worship to ask
the blessings of God" etc.
In order to reach an understanding as to
the act of Congress referred to by the Presi-
dent in his call for day Of prayer, the fol
lowing query was wired 10 washington:
docs the recent congressional enactment
regarding the observance OF April 80 make
the day legal holiday throughout the
country"
The answer was: THE sundry civil bill
passed at the last session makes April 30 d
national holiday throughout the country,
but only for this year"
just what will be done in Salt Lake
seems to be little uncertain, and an army
of clerks and other employees IS hanging in
suspense on the decision.
