THE HERALD. ]-Postoffice Inspector Sackett
been in this city to-day examining the accounts
of Acting Postmaster w. S. Jones, who was
last seen here week ago Saturday. Tonight
he claims to have found q shortage of 81 1850 in
the money order department. Jones was
brought here a short time since from Ian
sing, Mich, to take the place and
came highly recommended. He had been
in the postoffice service ten years and was
thoroughly competent as his work for the first
month showed. He then began to be sick for
days at a time and his accounts became sadly
in arrears and ii is now thought he took adj
vantage of his unbalanced accounts to draw
heavily on the cash drawer. He suddenly dis
appeared week ago Saturday and
the most earnest efforts OF the police
have failed to find a single clew
as to his present location. The inspector thinks
he has sought shelter in Canada. Jones is highly
connected in Lansing and has stood well here,
coming most highly recommended The inves-
tigation tonight shows he was in the habit OF
visiting fancy women and spending money on
them with lavish hand

tween Emin and Stanley-A Portuguese
Expedition to Shire River.

BERLIN, April 15.-The Prussian diet was
opened to-day by Chancellor Caprivi In his
speech he said: at is not my intention to state
the governments programme. but having hith-
erto held aloof from political life, now wish
to speak a few words in order to approach you
personally" [Cheers.l The chancellor then
referred to the important position which had
been held by Bismarck and expressed the hope
that in the future the empire would continue TO
secure the ediiee Of state. He said il was CO.
mented firmly enough TO resist wind and
weather. Moreover, the noble personality of
the monarch had already manifested itself at
home and abroad. He affirmed his undy1ng be-
lief in the future of Prussia and OF the German
empire on PruSsia'S shoulders; both for long
time to come would be historical necessity;
both could anticipate 9 future full of nope. The
Emperor had said his course would remain the
same: the inauguration of new era therefore,
was not TO be expected, although more harmo-
NOUS solidity would be manifest among the
members of the diet. In conclusion. the chan
cellor said he would allow The widest range to
practical criticism ana would adopt what was
good wherever found. He would cooperate
with all persons having at heart the inter ests
of Prussia and aiming to foster the mOnarchic
feeling in Prussia and a national feeling
throughout the empire. Cheers

ADJUSTMENTS.
MISS GRAY:s CONCERT

A remarkably clever girl is Ida Zenoma GRAY
who last evening appeared before q Salt Lake
audience as reader, reciter and disciple of
Delsarte and not only that, but engineered
through one OF the chastest, neatest and most
enjoyable concerts listened to in Salt Lake for
long time past. Several years ago, when she
was mere child, Miss Gray appeared before a
Salt Lake audience and excited strong wonder
ment for the possession of decided talents at
that time. She went to California, where she
has been of late and where she engaged in a
long course OF elocutlon and study of the Del
Sarte system. She returns with her talents al
most matured, with fine, full voice and with
every motion the acme of gracefulness. She
rendered half dozen pieces last evening,
ev1nclng her powers in the grave and gay, light,
serious and emotional, and was encored as many
times as she appeared OF all her work, prob :
ably the graceful feather motions and posing
during the Delsarte interpretations was the
best. The musical numbers were of decided
excellence and were warmly applauded by the
audience. The Quartette comprised OF Weihe
Youngdale Roruame and Olson, with MCINTYRE
at the piano did some classic work; the Easton,
Whitney, Spencer and Goddard quartette sang
| Two selections and were twice encored They
never sang to better advantage. Miss Pugsley
was in beautiful voice, as was also Mr.. Easton,
though We have heard both render the Trayiata
duet better. Mr.. Stephens was i'll and unable
| to appear Mr.. Mcintyre accompanied.
The audience was light, but very select and
appreciative.
