ment is promised to the patrons of
Manager Burton, Salt Lake theater,
Thursday and Friday nights. The occa-
sion is the engagement of that drOll and
unctious comedian, Frank Daniels. who
is announced to appear, and, together
with his big comedy company, present
for the first time In this city the new
farce comedy "Dr. Cupid, - which is de-
scrlbed as a whimsical comedy conceit in
three acts, as full of fun as an egg is of
meat. In -'Dr. Cupid Daniels plays
the part of Old Nudge, the landlord of a
small hotel at Bucks Landing, Pennsyl-
vania, and in it he believes he mas a
worthy successor to his famous character
creations of either Rockingham Giltedge
IN Little Puck' or Old Sport in ga Rag
Baby
The idea of the author of ''Dr. Cupid
is an exceedingly funny one. 1t deals
with the peculiar experiences of a gentle
man, meek and humble in life, a leader in
church matters, and otherwise sedate,
who has a troublesome wen on his neck
cut of, and the lacerated part covered by
a patch OF skin transplanted from another
mans face. The wound heals, but
Mudge's disposition, which before the
surgical operation had been of the quiet
est, suddenly changes, and he develops a
wild desire for sporting life. His wife is
amazed at the change in his disposition,
and in trying to discover what it is all
about she learns that the generous sub
ject who so kindly gave up part of his
face was a ed-haired tramp, and villain
of the deepest dye. She naturally jumps
to the conclusion that it is the other man s
disposition that the man has acquired by
the TRANSMISSION of blood, and when a
bunch of fame colored whiskers grows
out of the side of her husbands neck she
Is positive that this theory is correct.
One of the funny conceits which has
been introduced into the comedy is the
secret society craze which affects so many
men. In CDR. Cupid" Daniels is supposed
TO belong to more secret societies than any
man living.
Frank Daniels has introduced a new
costermonger song, called "Henry Hawk
ms in the second act of "Dr. Cupid. -
II has been received with so much favor
that the comedian is obliged to respond to
seven or eight encores nightly.

Friday night the Baroness Blanc and
her company presented Deception al
the Grand at Ogden to only a fair house
The company did not realize enough tc
defray expenses and had evidently de-
pleted their treasury, for when the bag
gage agent called upon the manager fol
SIS due for excess of baggage the money
was not forthcoming, Notwithstanding
the fact that the baroness has a reputed
millionaire attached TO her string.
Thirty one pieces of baggage and scenery
weighing 800 pounds, were held, but
was yesterday afternoon forwarded to San
Francisco c. 0. D. under instructions
from the head of the baggage
department of the Union Pacific. The
scene at the depot yesterday morning
when the members of the company found
that part of their wardrobe would OF ne
cessity have to be left behind, beggarf
description and several fights were
averted only by the GOODNESS OF the depot
officials.

Tho Death Roll Increases.

CHARLESTON, S. c., September 4.-The
News and Courier has made careful
investigation Of the condition OF affairs
on the coast Of South Carolina and its
reports have not been exaggerated.
The total loss of life will aggregate
800 in the belt of country between
Charleston and Savannah. The storm
swept away most of the homes as well
Is growing crops and left the people
in terrible state. The loss of life
and property was found to be greatest
on St. Helena, Ladies', Wassa, Coosaw,
Paris, Dawfustie and Dothan islands.
These islands, together with Port
Royal Island, have a population OF
about 1000, most Of whom are negroes
engaged in raising long staple cotton
and working in phosphate fields. The
estimates at this time as to loss Of life
are incomplete. There is no communi.
cation between certain of the islands
and reports Of death are slow reaching
the coroner. There are q great many
lives lost that will never be reported,
as bodies have been covered with sea-
weed or washed out to sea.

Where It Struck Hardest.

AUGUSTA Ga, August 30.-News
from the storm-swept district OF Port
ROYAL and Beaufort is very meagre.
No telegraphic communication with
those places yet, the only news OBJ
tainable being by mail. Passengers
on the late train state that seventy
dead and swollen bodies were taken
from the Coosaw river. Not one-half
of the horrors of the storm has yet
been told, as messengers from the
surrounding section are arriving hour
" bringing news of deaths and ter
rible havoc caused by sunday nights
gale.
BEAUFORT, S. c., August 31.-Over
three hundred and ninety dead bodies
have been found on the islands about
Beaufort and Port Royal. Over two
millions Of property has been wrecked
near the same points.
And both Of these are the direct
result of the severe storm which
swept along the Atlantic coast Sunday
night.
Every one of the fifteen or twenty
islands lying around Port Royal and
Beaufort is stepped in sorrow.
The beaches, the underground, trees
and shrubbery, the marshes and the
inlets are turning up many new dead
bodies every time an investigation is
made.
PORT ROYAL, 8. c., September 1.-The
islands around Port Royal and Beau.
fort present a sadder scene today than
was that of yesterday. The waters
have begun receding rapidly, and as
they disappear, leaving the land in
view, pictures of desolation and de.
struction multiply. Dead bodies are
being found on all portions OF every
one of the islands and in most instan-
ces decomposition has gone SO far that
anything like q certain recognition is
almost impossible.
The discovery of the bodies is sad
enough but the burial which they are
gwen enhances the sadness Of the sto,
nv. No one has time now to join q
funeral cortege unless the funeral be
that of member of his own family.
No digging is now necessary, as the
earth Is almost puddle for from two
to ten feet. The hole once made the
body IL dumped in without coffin OF
clergy and the mud trampled back
again. Sometimes the discoveries are
so frequent and the burials SO multi
piled that more than one body is
placed in the same hole.
THERE Is GREAT pEsTITURIoN.
The destitution here is great. It Ii
estimated that 1000 people are on the
islands practically homeless and in
many instances actually suffering fol
bread
