THAT FIRE PROBING TRIP.
The Proposition to Send Committee to
California Discussed.

In the city council last evening a re-
port from the joint city and county com
mittee was presented, recommending that
City Engineer Doremus and Architect
Proudfoot be sent to San Francisco to ex-
anime a system of concrete fire proofing
that California parties are trying to in
troduce here.
Mr.. Moran Immediately jumped up and
declared that he was opposed to any such
iunketing expedition. If these people
wanted their system adopted here they
ought to s'put up'' for it and pay the ex-
penses of the trip. If the council wanted
to know anything about fire PROBING,
they ought to send to Chicago, or some
other city where they have ire proof
buildings.
Mr.. Rich stated that if this California
system were adopted 1t would save the
city in the neighborhood of $40, 600. Not
only that, but nearly all the materials
used could be produced right here in
Utah, thus giving employment to many
men. He thought members of the city
council should be sent, and would not
object to going himself. Last year this
council had sat in their seats, looked wise
and voted away nearly million and a
quarter dollars of the peoples money to
run the city, and half the time did not
know what they were about. He thought
they ought to inform themselves in order
that they might iutelligently look after
the interests of the city.
The matter was finally referred to the
joint city and county committee with
power to act.

WAITING FOR THE END.
BIaine's Life Is Simply Prolonged by
Atimulants.
Nitro-GIycerine, the Most Potent stimu-
liant Known to the Medical Pro-
fession, Now Being Used.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-Another aston
ishing and unexpected Improvement in
the condition of Mr.. Blame occurred in
the early hours this morning. At a. m.
tn physicians announced that he had
been worse since p. m. and at that hour
was still losing strength. The fanny
then gathered in the room adjoining,
fearing the worst, but the patient lost no
more strength, and at 2 p. m. he was
sleeping quietly, with no indications OF
immediate dissolution, and the family re-
tired. His rest continued unbroken until
daylight. At o. clock DR.. johnson said
Mr.. Blaine was likely to die at any time,
but at 5 O'Clock said there was no proba-
bility of death for some hours at least.
Half an hour later, OF leaving the house,
he said there was no immediate danger Of
death. DIR. johnson returned to the
house at 1890 and remained half an hour.
On leaving he said Mr.. Blaine was better
than during the night, and his condition
was as favorable as could be expected. He
continued to take nourishment.
There is but little hope for the anxious
family in the statement that Mr.. Blaine is
better. He is kept alive, it is stated, only
by the utmost care and skill on the part of
the medical attendants. AS an intimate
friend OF the family expresses it: 1T is
only question of how long the doctors
can ward off the end they know must
come before very long. Nitro glyceripe,
which the doctors are administering now,
is probably the most potent stimulant
known to the profession in such cases and
its use shows that every other resource
has failed.''
At 10 p. IN. ths doctors gave out the fol-
lowing: 'Blaine passed a quiet day with
out incident. He has shown more
strength than yesterday. and his CONVEX
sation and manner was unusually bright
and cheerful The doctors stated in
addition that they had lett for the night
and should not return unless sent for.

of the quarantine bill as passed by the
Senate in amended form is: 'That when
ever it can be shown to the satisfaction of
the president that by reason of the ex-
istence of cholera or other infectious or
contagious disease in foreign country
and there is serious danger of the intro
duction of the same into the United
States, and Notwithstanding the quaran-
tine defense the danger is so increased by
the introduction OF persons or property

A NEW YEARS CALL

Is an occasion OF congratulation. But
such call at our store is doubly so, be-
cause every caller becomes lucky pur-
chaser, and we exchange congratulations
over the fact. Profitable purchases arc
especially pleasant now, when pleasant
experiences are in order. Now that calls
are the proper thing, permit us to call
your attention to our Winter Suits. You'll
certainly call them Al, and you'll be dead
right if you do. In January snow falls
and so do prices, and if the snow does go
quickly, the low prices are better stayers.
Don't stay too long though, but catch
the bargains while they're here. Spring
is coming, when the snow and low prices
will go together.

A NOVEL CONCERT.

Professor Stephens is at work preparing
a novel concert programme which will
represent in song the twelve nations most
represented in Utah.
There will be chous OF 1000 children,
who will present suitable colors as the
various nationalities are represented, and
little prodigies are being carefully looked
up for solo work who will in characters
tic costume, surrounded with flags or
banners, render their selections. Among
those already selected is wonderful little
violinist, only four wears of age, son of
Professor Anton Peterson. The natural
yet artistic grace with which he handles his
little violin and bow would be surprising
for Que three times his age. If the entire
programme can be made up with such
unique talent, nothing to equal it in in
terest at least will have ever been heard
in this part of the world.
