Harmless Hoppers.

AKRON, Colo, July 20.-Mr. Lawrence
Bruner, an expert sent out by the depart
ment Of agriculture, has just returned
from the reported grasshopper district
southwest of Akron. He reported that
the 'hoppers there are not the migratory
kind and that no great damage will be
done to the crops by them. Vegetation,
he says, has made such rapid growth
that the 'hoppers are being forced from
their Matching ground and are seeking
the roads and other bare spots. This is
why they seem so numerous at present,
but as soon as they are old enough to
travel they will spread over the country
and will not appear more plentiful than
at other times.
Mr.. Bruner goes to the Dakotas from
here to investigate the grasshopper scare
in those states. He also has reports from
New Mexico, Texas and western Kansas,
which places he is to visit before return

Salt Lake Business

The week was again interrupted by
holiday. but so far as could be learned from
\ brief tour among our merchants yester-
day, a very good business was done. Inc
hot weather that so many OF our merchants
anxiously awaited, is here, and, as a result,
they report largely increased sales In sum
mer goods of various kinds.
From all parts of the territory come the
most encouraging reports of the crop out
look, and there is no doubt but the yield
THE year will be enormous.
The mines are producing much more
Szrgeiy Inan year ago at this time, out
there is a divided opinion among those who
should know as to whether or not the yield
for the year will eclipse that Of 1890
There are many who assert that this
years output of Utah's mlnere Is
will be far in advance of the proceeding
twelve months, while others are inclined 10
che belief that the yield will be scarcely as
large. and these latter base their statement
UPON the fact that the backward spring
and summer weather kept the snow stored
away in the hills and prevented the usual
shipments in the early part of the year.
The realty market has been quiet, and
business on Change has been quite active,
considering the hot weather which is now
upon us.
The money market has eased up consid-
erably, brokers reporting the receipts
almost daily of large sums to loan on real
estate and other securities. In many cases
real estate that short time ago would n OF
be taken as collateral, is now looked up on
as good security.
Collections, generally, are reported as
slow, in the city, with Improvement no
ticeable in some portions of the country.

,hant. Young burgess entered Har-

merchant. Young Burgess entered Har-
ward and graduated in 1871. His father
soon after failed, and in 1873 Burgess re-
turned TO Harvard as Instructor in entomol-
ogy, in which science he was very pro-
ficient He was fond OF yachting and mad
mathematical turn of mind, which in ISL
he applied to yacht building. His first sue
cess was the Puritan, which competed with
the Priscilla before meeting the Britisher,
the Genesta. The Puritan beat the Gen
esta first by 10 N. 49, S. Subsequently by l
N. IS 9. In 1856 the Galatea made the at
tempt, but was quite unable TO cope with
the genius of Burgess, as exhibited in the
line of the Mayfiower. The Thistle shared
the same fate against Burgess Volunteer
No English yacht has since tried to take
away the cup from US. There are now con-
siderably over hundred Burgess boats''
on eastern waters. Mr.. Burgess took up
naval architecture as profession, and soon
acquired q competency. From time to time
he wrote pamphlets OF chronological sub
iects. A great reception was given to him
at Faneuil hall, Boston, October Z, 1887, by
his fellow-townsmen. A fund was raised
aud presented to him on this occasion. Mr.
Burgess married Miss Sullivant, of Colum-
bus, o. She was considered very beauti-
full, and sec for "Erato, the Goddess OF
Love-" in the picture of the ''NIne Muses.

Southern sulphur Deposits.

The agent Of a ST. Louis syndicate has
been making an inspection of the sulphur
mines near Cove Greek. He has returned
east, and will soon submit the result Of his
examination to his employers. II the re-
port is satisfactory, the sulphur property
will be purchased and worked to its full
capacity. Among the improvements prom
ised is the extension of the Rio Grande
Western to the mines. The sulphur de-
posts in southern Utah are among the
largest and most valuable of the natural
resources of the territory, and better
transportation facilities will see the mines
worked, producing untold wealth.
