COL. DODGE's VIEWS
Aims and Objects of the R. G. w.
in Utah.
Conditions Under Which That Road Would
Build to Deep Creek-Salt Lake
Business Men.

Colonel ID. G. Dodge, the well known
manager of the Rio Grande Western, is in
the city. While much engaged in routine
work connected with his line, HERALD
representative succeeded in catching few
short responses to several interrogatories
last evening just as the gentleman was
about to enter the Walker house cafe. ''As
TO news" said the colonel, AZ am not sup
pied. That's what your papers are for.
Inc general policy Of our road is well
known. Our history here SO far has been
repetition of the Rio Grande in Colorado,
and this warrants the statement that the
lilo Grande Western Will continue to be a
Utah road
"Ihe building of the Rio Grande to the
mining regions of Colorado made Denver
what it is. Salt Lake is in an analogous
position. Every pound of ore mined and
every mile OF road built in Utah will help
Salt Lake. This territory has not even
seen the beginning of systematic prospect
ing,
Colorado has barely reached that point,
out expect to live to see the day when
Utah and Colorado will be the two richest
states in the union.
LAS to the intentions of our company
regarding extensions and branches, all that
can be said is that 1t will complete the
Eureka line as fast as possible and hope to
get through by the middle OF December.
OF DEEP CREEK
it is only necessary to say that II it would
pay we would build the line. The question
of terminal point and the line to be Sc
lected would depend upon investigation to
be made regarding the probable amount of
business likely TO be secured. A line pass
Ing through region which would furnish
a station every twenty miles well supplied
with freight would naturally be preferable
to one passing over vast stretches of des-
ert, with long and Improbable hauls.
''One trouble with all Salt Lake enter
prises seems to be that the business men
here do not hang together long enough to
successfully carry them through"
The colonel will be IN the city day or SO.

President Barrios, of Guatemala, was
killed in battle on April ., 1885. Four years
before, when he and his beautiful wife
were making tour of the principal
countries of the world, he bought for her
mansion OF Fifth avenue, New York. and
invested largely in American sureties for
her benefit. When, therefore, he fell in
battle and her life was in danger. she
found an opulent provision in this country
for herself and eight children, The
widow OF the terrible Barrios is an
amlable and accomplished woman
and an ornament OF the highest
american society. Now that Spanish
newspapers report that she is engaged 10
marry Senior Martinez Roda, a member of
the parliament of Spain and wealthy resi-.
dent of Granada, much public interest ia
manifested IN the announcement
The manner of Barrios' wooing her was
eminently characteristic of that imperious
statesman and warrior. She was the
daughter OF Juan Aparicio, proprietor of a
large coffee plantation of Quezaltenanqo
Guatemala. On visit to her father Bar.
rios saw her, became enraptured with her
beauty and asked her hand in marriage
Aparicio declined the honor of having the
president for son-in- law, on the gronnd

DIR. Talmage returned but q few weeks
ago from visit to Europe, In the course Of
which Pompeii received much of his atten-
ton. He brought back with him a series
OF superb pictures, over fifty in all, taken
on the spot, and illustrating the streets,
buildings and other items Of interest con-
nected with this disentombed town; and
these views were used to illustrate his re-
marks on Friday evening. The views were
projected upon large screen with striking
effect, though the lecture hall was very
poorly adopted for such an exhibition.
After a pleasing introduction, the
speaker referred to the leading parts
in the history Of Pompeii. 1t was
once provincial town of Campania, sit
uated at the mouth of the Saruns on the
shores of the Bay of Naples and at the
base of the mighty Vesuvius. 1t is frat
mentioned in history 80 B. c., though it's
buildings, monuments and inscriptions
clearly prove it to be much older. In the
year 63 A. ID. q destructive earthquake
occurred, and before the Inhabitants had
time to repair the city came the fatal Oath
OF August, A. d. 70, on which day mighty
outburst Of volcanic activity took place,
immense volumes Of ashes, pumice and lava
were belched forth from the fiery throat Of
Veslvius and beautiful Pompei:, with her
sister towns, Herculsneum, Stabrae and
Cumae, were completely buried. Now,
after lapse of more than eighteen cen
turtles. these towns are being disentombed
and the voice of the past comes to US from
the grave.
The lecturer showed the present state
of the ruins, with lucid descriptions
of the streets, houses, shops, temples and
gardens. Even the ruts in the hard ba-
saitic pavement, cut by the wheels Of vehi-
cies In the long ago, are still to be seen. In
3 bakers oven were found oyer forty
loaves OF bread, together with the bones of
the table. Wine bottles of earthen ware
are abundant, and glass bottles, still filed
with oil, are preserved. Cooking utensils
cloth, rope locks and keys, grains, meal in
the pot, ornaments of every description
and other similar specimens were shown in
profusion.
The house of the poet, named by Lord
Lytton the house Of Glaucus, was shown !;
the ctures upon the walls are still bright
and fresh, and the delicate ornaments of
female attire lead to the belief that Lyt-
toms description of the beautiful lone is
well founded
ssThe Temple Of Isis was exhibited and
the secret inches and hidden stairways by
the aid Of which the juggleries of that in
famous shrine were wrought upon the
superstitlous, were laid bare.
But We cannot note more of the many
striking features of the lecture. The last
picture was a magnificent representation
OF Vesuvius. The speaker characterized
the volcano as slumbering monster, a
sleeping giant, uneasy in his doze, and
seemingly but gathering strength for other
ferocious outbursts.
The lecture occupied an hour and half

COUNTY TEACHERS.
Ehe Formation Of an University Extension in
Salt Lake Suggested.

SdlG Lake suggested.
Saturday morning the Salt Lake County
Teachers association convened, at the call
of Superintendent David r. Allen, in the
Deaf Mute building, corner of First North
and Third West, Salt Lake city, Utah.
After the adoption of the constitution
and bylaws, the teachers proceeded to the
election of officers with the following re
suit: President, Superintendent David r.
Allen; first vice president, Oscar Van
Colt: second vice president, Miss Katie
Dean; secretary and treasurer, Miss AIDA
Norton; librarian, Miss Belle Salmon.
The above officers constitute a board of
directors, and the president, vice presi-
dents, MISS Lillian Hamlin and Misc Annie
Anderson, constitute committee on pro-
gramme.
About thirty five teachers assembled and
listened intently to remarks made by the
talented Professor G. A. Whiting, of
which the following is a synopsis:
University extension, as presented by
the speaker, seems TO be q subject Of the
most vital importance, and one which
should command the attention of every
friend OF education in our territory Orig
mating IN England the idea has spread
over the most of the continent of Europe.
ana IN our own country societies are being
organized In almost every state and terri
tory. The central Office is at 1902 Chestnut
street, Philadelphia. This society will col
lect information as to the experiments now
going on In various parts of the world, and
make II accessible TO ali who may be in
terested in the movement. 1t will form
branch societies TO push the work in any
place where such thing meets with en-
couragement. 1t will endeRvor to furnish
such branch societies with competent
lecturers and organizers. 1t will strive to
make every college and university a center
OF university extension. At present the
only source of income that the Central So
ciety has Is from membership dues (S5 for
annual membership, and $50 for life mem
oershlp). The subject treatise Of the Ex-
tension courses of study are almost as
varied as those offered in our colleges and
universities. In short, the theory is. that
by means Of the Extension methods tho
university is carried to the people: that
one or more courses of real college
lectures viii be delivered each wear
In every place where even few
people are sufficiently interested In the
movement 10 organize a local society. II
was earnestly suggested that teachers give
this matter their careful consideration and
bring II 10 the attention of the people at
large and see II by next year some local or
ganizatiops can not be made in Utah.
Miss Katie Dean spoke Of the benefit tn
be derived by giving pupils employment as
1t would be the best means OF maintaining
order.
On motion the institute adjourned to
meet the second Saturday in each month at
II o'clock am. in the deaf mute building

No stronger evidence of the esteem with
which the meetings Of the Latter-day
Saints college students society are re-
garded and of the popularity of its princi-
pal as lecturer, could be given than that
which manifested itself on Friday evening
last. The occasion was one of the regular
instructive and generally delightful meet
ings with which the students and teachers
of the college interest themselves and their
friends once week.
The programme OF the evening consisted
of lecture by DR.. J. E. Talmage on ga
Visit to Pompeii, City of the Past" In
the published announcement of the meet
ing, which was to begin at 80, notice had
been given that no persons would be ad-
mitted after 7:45, but the fact was that
very few were admitted after
Z o'clock, for by that time fully
half an hour earlier than the appointed
time for beginning, the room was crowded.
Every foot of floor space was occupied.
Fully a hundred and fifty people stood in
the aisles, and hundreds were unable to
gain entrance st all.
