tended tour of inspection among the lead

penses should be met by subscription, -
said he, land [ am willing to start the
list with 800. Ii would be a good thing
for the council, for it would increase their
information and give them new ideas. 1t
would be a splendid thing for the city, for
it would attract attention to Salt Lake.
The word would go out that Salt Lake

The artist Turner was an interesting
talker, and was not only prodigal OF
interesting information, but OF bril-
liant repartee.
He was once at q dinner-party at
the poet CampbeIl's and spoke OF art
in such a way that his listeners be-
lieved him superior to all other pro-
fessions. Alter this the poet rose,
and having alluded with mockgravity
to his friends skill in "varnishing
painters as well as paintings" pro-
posed:
The health OF Mr.. Turner and the
Worshipiul Company OF Painters and
GlaZiers."
Then Turner rose, and with equal
so!enlnity expressed his sense OF the
honor he had received made some
good-humored allusion to 'blotters
OF foolscap whose works are appro-
priately bound in calf" and conciud-
ed by proposing in return:
