Park city is undoubtedly one of the live
lest Socially cities in the west Not con-
tented with the large social circle she
enjoys, and so more strongly binds its mem
bers together, she has formed the nucleus
OF what will be one of the most select and
fashionable societies in the country.
Pursuant to an invitation from MIR. g. A.
Short, TO his house, large number of
friends responded, where it was resolved
TO form literary and musical society.
The company was hardly fully organized,
but from suggestions made by those pre-
sent II was resolved to organize sucn a
club. 1t may be either Shakespearean,
Browning or Chataquan circle as
the members may elect, and has
for its purpose, either mutual
Improvement, or merely a pure amuse-
ment organization. After some few dis
cusslons, those present signed their names
to the membership list after having re.
solved to hold their next meeting at Mrs.
w. S. Rice's.
one OF those vague, unVerihed rumors,
that one occasionally meets, was floating
about town TO the effect that the Dahl
Miner in this city would collapse Rumors
OF this kind are very annoying to all con-
cerned, and especially SO TO those immedi
ately concerned.
