DESIRABLE WINTER RESIDENCE.
The railroad here, and St. George is the
most desirable place for winter residence
in the territory, and there is no doubt OF
its becoming a noted resort, especially Tor
those affected with bronchial and lung
complaints. There can be no better eli
mate in the world for people affected with
weak lungs than this, where the AR IS
pure and the winter is mild and pleasant.
MINING AND SMELLING.
While portion of the people are en-
gagged building the canal, Others are busy
burning the charcoal in the mountains
and hauling it to st. George to the cop
per smelter, to be used in reducing the
ore from the mine eighteen miles south
west from here; others mining the ore,
hauling the ore to the smelter, working
at smelter and hauling the copper bullion
to Milford, there to be loaded on the cars
for shipment to New York and other
points, so that considerable activity is ex-
hibited in and around this beautiful little
city. The copper furnace is now in fall
blast, and 30, 900 pounds OF bullion has
been shipped so far this month and
Wooley, Lund & Judd expect to have
enough more off to Milford by the end OF
the month to make one of their large
railroad shipments.
While busy with their varied industries
of stock raising, farming, fruit raising,
manufacturing cotton and wooden goods,
building canals, mining and smelling
they still find time to build quite num-
Der of nice, tasteful residences, make
general improvements in fences and barns
and preparing to make of st. George the
most attractive OF all Utah's beautiful
cities.

Once a man attended "a Sorosis meet
ing. A few years ago a distinguished fe-
male singer from the operate stage was
invited to sing by SorOsis. She came late
and hurried into Delmonico's ballroom,
where Sorosis was then wont to meet,
followed by little, nervous, why ltal
ian. The hundred odd ladies simply
glared and sat speeches. Mrs. Lozier,
who was then president hurried down
from the presiding chair and had hur-
ried whispering conversation with the
opera singer, while the little Italian stood
In the aisle suffering mental agonies
from the concentrated glare of 200 femi-
nine eyes Then the opera singer was
overheard to say;
why, madam, he is my accompanist,
and | cannot sing without him If he
goes, then | must 60"
The president returned to her chair
the singer seated herself, and the social
gathering resolved itself into IA business
body-the poor, nervous pianist stand
ing still in the aisle like criminal be-
fore the bar of justice. The matter was
freely discussed, and finally it was re-
solved to make an exception and allow
the Italian to remain and play. Fortu-
nately for the Italian, he understood very
little English, and after standing CuiZzic-
ally through the debate he boldly walked
up to the singer and asked what it all
meant. She explained, and then the
Italians blood boiled.
Il nevair hear of such a ling" he SAID
vehemently "Adieu, madame"
He was persuaded to remain and play,
but when he had finished he bolted, and
every footstep rang out Indignation and
defiance. -New York Times

The sight from that place ON Thursday

On Friday evening, when Messrs Peck

would slop over in places and flow into the

Mr.. Rowell had a narrow escape from one

speak of the scene AS most magnificent and

Mr.. D. F. Schloss gives the following
instructive contrast between English and
German weavers: The well fed English
weaver can without difficulty look after
four looms and can with the aid of jul
venile assistant ('tenter') manage as
many as six. But, as DR.. Won Schulze-
Gaevernitz tells us, Notwithstanding that
the continental manufacturers run their
looms from 20 to 30per cent slower than
ours are worked, in Mulhouse and in
Switzerland each weaver can only tend
three, and in Germany you will seldom
see a weaver able to tend more than two
looms The effect of the superiority Of
the English operatives upon the cost Of
production is shown by the fact that, al
though the rate of remuneration Of our
English weavers is about 100 per cent
higher than that received by the Swiss
and German ''hands," yet we are able to
turn out cotton cloth at labor cost dis
tinctly lower than that which obtains in
Switzerland and Germany.-London Let

When Buying the winters Coal supply.


Coal is a mineralized vegetable, of which
there are many varieties. The two kinds
most in use are anthracite and bituminous.
The anthracite is the most thoroughly min
eralized of all the varieties and burns with
out flame. Good anthracite will contain
upward of 80 per cent of carbon. 1t will be
hard, brittle, black and lustrous. Coal that
has brownish, dull look, and that will
scale off, will be neutrality-suspicious. burn
ing well nor giving the proper amount of
heat This is what is termed slaty coal.
There is great waste because of the large
proportion which is not combustible and
it is unwise to buy at any price this kind of
coal for household purposes The anthra-
cite Goals are known by the ashes as white
ash or red ash coal. The red ash burns
more freely than the other, leaving but few
cinders If the chimneys do not have a
good draft, the red ash is desirable, or
white and red may be mixed, as one would
mix soft and hard wood. The red ash is
always the more expensive.
If the furnace has a good draft, get large
coal, but if the draft is poor use finer coal,
or some fine with the regular furnace coal.
The coal for the cook stove should be rather
fine. Crates and heating stoves will take
coal of larger size, but as it is not always
convenient to get these sizes consider the
cooking range before the other stoves or the
CRATES. Soft coal "eaks so easily that the
size in which it is [ alivered to the house
keeper does not make so much difference.

A Point That should Not Be Forgotten.

At McGill college, Montreal, which is Co
educational, out Of IL students graduating
with honors six are women, and out of five
medalists three are women. A college stat
istician, in going over the figures, finds
that In proportion to their numbers the
women have done three times as well as the
men, Still, it must be remembered that
these figures are based upon averages.
Only exceptional girls are now TO be
found In the colleges, while all sorts and
conditions of boys for all manner of reasons
are sent into college. One blockhead, whose
father sends him to college because the boy
is too stupid to do anything else, or one
wild son sent because the father doesn't
know what to do with him, pulls down Il
