the capital to be present at the opening of
that honorable body.

THE MUSICAL DIsCoRD.
The articles published in THE HERALD in
regard to the leadership of the Logan
Choral society have caused considerable
discussion and some hard feeling. The
truth of the matter SO far as can be learned
is that Mr.. Lewis resignation was due to
the fact that he could not get enough male
voices interested to make the society q
success.
MIR. George Thatcher, ir., whom the
"Old Loganlte' seems 10 be after, has not
been leader of the "Opera House
orchestra since his return from southern
Utah. The conception of Choral society
was had during his absence, and Mr..
/ l.
drilling the society, that his duties to his
employers would not allow him to become
an active member. neither would they al
low him to remain leader of the Opera
House orchestra. and since that time Mr..
! Charles Harris has been its leader.
The orchestra has not met for practice
upon Monday night since the beginning OF
the Choral society, in fact its regular meet
ing night is Thursday of each week.
Mr.. Lewis reply to Dramatic and
| Lyric" together with this statement of
facts, will probably settle the matter.
THE BLAIR MINING CoMPANY's DIRECTORS
met Saturday night and decided to ad-
vance the price of the stock from " to 10

count of the increasing demand for the
stock since the late strike in their prop
erty. 1t was also decided to ask for bids
upon cross cut drift from the shaft il
their new property, to the vein, which is
supposed to be only fifteen or twenty feet
The shaft was sunk in a chimney, and it is
claimed that good paying ore can be OBJ
tanned as soon as the cross cut meets the
vein.
