A New Atlantic Gable Talked OF.

There is more talk of a new Atlantic
cable. This time 1t is proposed to lay a
Canadian cable. and it is said a COM
pany, with a capital of 81, 900 900, has
been organized for the purpose. 1t is
contemplated to begin the work soon n
featuring, laying and %equipping the
cable will consume the greater part of
the capital; but even then, the cost will
be one-fifth less than any OF the English
American cables, and one-quarter less
h the direct United States, Western
Union and Commercial companies con
nection. The new cable is to extend
from near Clew Bay, in Ireland, to
Greenly Island in the straits OF Belle
Isle. On the eastern connection will be
made with the Imperial company 3 postal
telegraph service. and on the westward,
with the Dominion service. Thus the COM
pany VIII simply nav q cable 1900 miles
long, and lengthy telegraph lines will be
required. 1t was thought by some ex-
perts that there would be danger from
grounding with icebergs, as the direction
of the cable was so far northward; but a
close study of the chart shows that from
Belle Isle to Greeny Island there is deep
water generally, and the promoters con-.
slider the enterprise perfectly secure. By
the way it is not generally known, but
1t IS a fact nevertheless, that Cyrus W.
Field, who more b any other man is
responsible for the cable connections be-
tween England and America, was the
last man to receive the freedom of the
CITY of New York for his services. :
Mr.. Field is not Interested In the new
enterprise; n the various compGaies IN
New York seem to pay little attention
to it. G a.

DIR. Law the Tombs CHAPLAIN.

Somewhere in this big city there may
be a drearier spot than the Tombs prIs-
no, but if so, I pray God to keep me from
it, the great granite structure OIL Contra
street, where SO many criminals have
crossed the bridge of Sighs'' and
everything about it is gloomy, even on g
sunny day. But there is always a hui
man sunbeam there in the person of an
bic man with small, stopped shoulders,
and a gentle voice, who occupies the
unique position of Tombs chaplain. His
name is Rev. DR.. Law, and every day he
makes it his business to call on the pris-
ouers, give them good advice if they will
IKE it, cheer them up if they are down.
Sunday it is his privilege to preach to
them. Last Sunday afternoon at 8
O'Clock Dr.. Law stood up in the corridor
of the second tier of cells. A
dozen men and women, with
song book lin hand, surrounded
him. There werea few keepers lounging
idly by, but otherwise the place looked
deserted. The silence was awful. Then
the old man began in a low, musical
voice the opening sentences of the beau
tiful evening service of the Episcopal
church. In almost the ~twinkling Of an
eye, from behind the barred door of
every cell, there appeared the face of a
prisoner peering out into the corridor.
All were attentive and respectful. When
the preachers voice died way there
rang through the old prison the music of
q church organ n q rich contralto voice
f1oated through the place, and every
prisoner strained his eyes to see the
singer.
1t was a fair young woman whose voice
trembled not a little as she began, "T
Hear the Voice of Jesus Say There
were prayers, hymns and a short sermon
and the regular ritual. Many of the
prisoners were deeply affected, and
nearly all of them joined in the song SER
vice. "A few of them wept, and then
and there some of them promised to live
better lives when they should get out of
prison. Every Sunday afternoon ID the
year DR.. Law holds services in the prison,
and is usually accompanied by a few men
and women, who take pleasure in thus
doing the Masters work.

FROM a prr Goods store to the Bar.

If anybody should tell you that New
women who can find nothing to do, don't
believe it-that's all. There is not a
fine of business in the city that is not
open to any man or woman who has in
te~lligence, push and determination.
Just now, the man who is attracting
more attention han any other is John
W. Golf, one of the assistant district at
torneys of this city, an exile fromSFfe-
land, vino managed to study law while
CLERK in a dry goods store until heA fitted
himself for admission to the bar. Ee is
now actually at the head of the distTfct
attorneys Office in this city. A
dozen years ago he was a sales
man in a Church street dry goods
house, and one of his c~o-laborers was
a man named Fitzgerald. They
were warm-h hearted Irishmen, anxious
to get on in the world; and they spent
every moment of their leisure in reading
Blackstone. How well they succeeded
Is shown by the fact that Fitzgerald
is now a judge and Golf the chief workers
in the district attorneys office. 1t was,
Golf who made the mastery speech in
the now famous Flack trial, and whose
convincing logic and sharp cross-examin-s
tiou secured the conviction of the divorce
c~onspirators. ~

Tony Harris Last DAYS.

Alas, poor Tony Hart? The gentle
comedian who, as Harrigan's partner,
was always SO warmly welcomed, will
never leave the insane asylum. One of
his old-time friends who visited him the
other day informed me that he was hope
-lessly insane. When his wife died a few
weeks g he was taken to her funeral,
but he did not realize what was going on
about him. He takes not the slightest
interest in current events, and jabbers to
the keepers of the asylum like a child in
the nursery. The doctors do not expect
hun to live long. He has grown enor-
mously stout-one of the last stages of
his disease-and his death may be looksG
for atahnost any time.

THE COMING FAIR.

We observe the fair premium list is again
abroad in the land and preparations at the
exposition grounds in this city remind us
that the time is approaching for the
annual territorial fair.
II ought to be better than ever before,
The fairs in this city have always been
pretentious and worthy of patronage In
the early days with no facilities at all ex-
hibitions were given here immensely
superior to anyth ng that could be done by
any neighboring state or territory. With
the march of events Utah has kept steady
pace. A magnificent building, new and
costly additions to which have been made
the present year, now affords advantages
for such exhibitions unequalled in the west.
The present year has been fruitful one
for the farmer, the stockman, the manufac-
turer, the miner; III fact, every department
of Utah's vast and wonderful resources is
on the onward march. Each succeeding
fair bears evidence of our marvellous ad-
vancement in agriculture, in stock breed
ing, in manufacturing, in fine arts, in all
the paths of peace and industry. If the
dogs of discord could be called off the peo.
pie here forever, how our greet territory
would arise and shine,
Long live the fair.

A GREAT MANY newspaper readers, and in
fact, we might say, the public in general,
have a wrong conception of the para
grapher, the humorist, or as he is more
commonly called, 1.-THE funny man" They
seem to think, that like the kings fool, or
the court jester, he was made merely to
amuse for little time, and not to instruct:
that it matters little by what means he
raises a laugh or provokes q smile, so
long as the object aimed at is accom-
plisbed. BOB BURDETTE, however, teaches
these persons a lesson in the
following: Speaking of the old Puritan
Sabbath, as it was observed in his younger
days, OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES says: Il
have never got over the saddening effects
of this early discipline; indeed, have
hardly recovered from it to this day. If
the stern old Puritan Sabbath, with its
subduing, saddening effects, wrought out
such joyous natures as Beecher's, and gave
to the world such beautiful blending of
tenderness and strength, laughter and
tears, heart-deep pathos and sunny humor
as OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES, let Us have
another century of Puritan Sabbath Up
to date the Sunday of the beer garden has
failed 10 bring forth a HOLMES or a
BEECHER. 1t has evolved JOHANN MOST
and an AUGUST SPIES, but somehow that
sort of product doesn't seem to be quite
up to the old Puritan mark When you
run up the bunting tomorrow, remember
it was the steady-golng old Puritan Sab
bath that Matched the Fourth of July The
day we celebrate dearly beloved, wasn't
born in Chicago beer dive on Sunday
afternoon !; not by q jug full.''

the bad. He says he has also read Ouida,
and thoughts in her works. and he has
written soue of them out. One naturally
desires to see these marked passages so as
to be able know ex oficio what is pure and
beautiful in Ouida Within year or two
many men eminent in science and
literature have given lists of "the
hundred best books" To make
these lists complete WANAMAKER and
TrNER should draw up one, and if there be
in the books SO selected any Objectionable
passages that should be expunged from the
text. let them be expunged and placed in
notes at the bottom of the pages in smaller
type. This will save time and trouble to
readers who would otherwise be compelled
to hunt up the omitted lines in some refer
ence library.
There is no hardship, there is no wrong
| in prohibiting bad books from going
through the mails. If this is not done the
morals of the nation might be corrupted.
and this would be bad The hardship and
wrong are in having some one read the
wsrks to be placed IN the index expurga-
tories, for surely this is a case in which each
should be his own lawyer. Few men have
been more favored in this world than those
Roman readers who placed books
under the BAN Their endowments
were great. for while they knew
and preserved the good they likewise
enjoyed and condemned the bad. Dear
Friar Tuck is the very ideal of such o
reader.
1t is with bad books as it is with the
crimes set forth in the criminal codes
there are degrees Some books are de-
lightfully bad. And here we might men
ton several that we dc not care to name.
But space forbids proper classification
of all bad books, so we hastily mention s
few classes:
| Unutterably bad are specially prepared
presentation books "bound in tree calf
Also psychological novels without plot
incident or interest.
Damnably bad are books for the CONVEX
sion of the heathens in foreign pirts, ant
books intended to complete "at home'' tn,
education of those whose opportunities il
their youth were not Of the best.
Boringly ba ! are those book that SHOULD
be in every gentleman's library, and with
out familiarity with which no gentleman
education is complete.
Bad, bad without qualification, are tn
books Of book agents and of these ''kint
friends" who insist upon our reading ''fa
vorite author
Pretentiously bad are the books that lit
i A. A.
streets.
Let Wanamaker and Tyner turn their at
tent:on to these classes of books and ex
clude them from the mails and they will d
almost as good work as did Caliph Omar

LABOR DAY, which occurs this year on
Monday next, September l. will be cele-
brated at Ogden in good style. Last year,
the Ogden laborers were the guests of
their Salt Lake brethren at Lake Park, and
they received most royal welcome 1t
need not be feared, we think, that the Salt

Ogden on Monday next. Monday will be
at least semi-holiday ia Salt Lake, and
there will be a large number of men idle

correspondent suggests to these grand

forcibly, If not very elegantly--puts it,
''loafing around town. 1t is good idea,
and while it should not be used as a
counter attraction, to keep people away
from Ogden, it might be put into effect
with little or no trouble, aud with good
rasults

THE REPUBLICAN proposition to empower
the President to impose or remove certain
taxes, as part of the reciprocity scheme, is
base and cowardly surrender of vital
principle of a republic, in which the peo-
pie are supposed to be the sovereigns.
Taxes must be voted by the representa-
tives of the people. No English sovereign
since the STUARTs would have dared to i'm
pose taxes without the consent of parlia-
ment. The taxing power is the greatest
the government possesses. To place that
power in the hands of one man makes him
despot and the people his subjects, no
matter whether he is called by the title of
ear, king or president.

'sKreutzer Sonata is bad and immoral, and
not book proper to be introduced into

John has read the book. In other
words, he has eaten of the fruit
