SHAVING ON THE LIMITED.

BARRIERS Worried by the Foolish Questions
of Timid Patrons.
"I am learning something new every day
about MY trade" said Fred johnson, one
of the limited BARRIERS, last evening. "Shav-
ing man on train going so miles an hour,
and around all kinds Of sharp curves, is not
an easy Job. used to be very nervous at
first, but have gotten over it braSelY. The
people bother me by asking foolish ques-
tions. why, you don't shave me on the
train. do you?' some will ask. as if the Pull
man Company is in the habit Of fixing up
barber shop for nothing. Did you ever cut
anybody another will venture in nervous
tones.
"Well, now, it is these questions that
make my life weary. Certainly. there is
always danger, and heavy jar made by
the train is liable to turn the razor astray
at any time. 1 don't believe any of my
customers ever get over this fear. 1 have
never yet met with an accident, and I have
been shaving on the limited since it was put

NICOTINE Is CoLoRLEss.
People Mistake the Yellow Substance IL
the Smoke for the Poison.

People Mistake the Yellow Substance in
the Smoke for the Poison.
''It isn't a good plan to smoke cigar too
close to the mouth" remarked DR.. Orr, yes
terday, "but people will do it if they are hard
up, or are pulling at a particularly fine
Havana. When the cigar becomes very
short the smoker draws into the mouth larger
quantities of the deleterious matter than be
would ii it was longer.
"Did vou ever blow tobacco smoke through
handkerchiefand notice the yellow deposit
remaining?" And the doctor suited the
action to word, showing quite chunk Of
yellow matter on the silk lissus.
People imagine" the doctor continued,
"that the yellow substance you see is nico-
tine, but that is mistake. Nicotine is a
colorless liquid, and it would take great
many mouthfuls of smoke blown through a
handkerchief to produce a deposit sufficient
from which drop of this deadly poison could
be obtained. But, after all, cigar is pretty
nice thing, and you can't blame man for
smoking when it gives him so much COM
fort. Don't carry the practice to excess;
that is the point to be guarded against"

BRIGHAM A SHREWD RASCAL.

Chat With an Ogden Editor About the
Mormon Prophet-His Ability Conceded
and Little Empire Was the Result of
His Life Work.
Colonel A. B. Hayes, the Ogden editor. is
still at the Monongahela House. He e1-
poets to remain here for several months
attending to his business. The Colonel
in speaking of Brigham Young and
the Mormon question yesterday said: Il
never met Brigham, but from what hear
about him he was one of the smartest men
the country has produced. He built up Tor
himself in the Utah valleys little empire
which is a marvel, and the wonder is that
great and small among his subjects swore
by him. He had some intelligent people
among his followers, and when he found
man who was too bright he kept him quiet
by giving him some position in the church
and taste at the revenues. He was man
who loved ease, and he lived by his Wits
Was he a fanatic? No, think he was
very shrewd rascal.
81 believe in time all the bad features In
the church doctrines will be eliminated, and
it will become one of the denominations OF
the country. At present the sect is about
800 years behind other churches. The one
thing that stirred up the Mormons more
than anything else and led to disavowal oil
polygamy by the elders was the bill intro
duced in Congress to disfranchise them.
They number about 10000 people in
the Territory, and the greatest
danger to he feared from them
now is the political influence welded by the
leaders of the church. The members vote as
they dictate, but 1 know of a number of
Mormons who kick over the traces and cast
their ballots as they please. Ii is only
question of time until the principles OF the
church are modified to conform with the
laws of the country. On Decoration Day
the Mormon business men in Salt Lake
City closed their stores, put the American
flag on their houses, and observed the day
like other loyal citizens. On the Fourth OF
July also they helped the Gentiles at Ogden
to celebrate. They are becoming more
Americanized every day."
The Colonel said yesterday that one of
the prettiest sights he ever saw was war
dance given by $50 Bannock and Shoshone
Indians in full dress for the fray, at the
Rocky Mountain carnival last summer. The
Indians demanded ST, 900 for their work and
they got It,

At tine close of one OF the acts in ".Che
Henrietta at the Grand Opera House
Thanksgiving evening, citizen in the gal

was loud enough to be heard all over the

Mr. Robson was asked yesterday if he
was annoyed bv the occurrence. "Oh, no, B"
he replied, 81 think it was due to his ex-
cItement over the play, and he naturally
blurted out his opinion, but 1 want to say
one thing about Pittsburg. 1 knew it was
a manufacturing town, and came here ex-

were borrowed from local dealers to orna-
ment the stage, were worth $4,000.
