Great Syndicate Shows Took Salt Lake
by Storm.
Monday next is circus day, and the
Great Syndicate Shows will give two ex-
hibitions in observation-disclosures and
evening, The tents will be pitched at
Agricultural Park. The street parade
takes place at 10 o'clock in the morning.
The Salt Lake Tribune thus comments in
complimentary terms on the Syndicate
shows:
NEVER since the city of Salt Lake was
founded has there been visiting circus
that so fully fulfilled it's preliminary adj
vertising and its every promise as has
the new Great Syndicate Shows and Paris
Hippodrome. 1t promised much, and the
people looked forward to seeing Won
derful show-one that was different from
the usual and regular thing-and they
were not disappointed. 1t is by far the
best circus that has ever exhibited in
Salt Lake. 1t Is big and extensive. yet so
compact in every arrangement that every
one in attendance can easily see each and
every act OF the programme, which Is ex-
tremely interesting throughout ills length.
Few people leave the canvas until the last
act is finished, fact which highly en-
phasiZes the unanimous stamp of APP
proval which the public everywhere have
put upon this exhibition"

Who WILL Be THE new BISHOP I?
Rumor Recently Said 1t Would be
Rev. Father Grace.
Now There Is Story TO the Effect
That Father insolvency
VIII be Named.

There is considerable speculation being
INDUCED in just now by the press of
Oakland and other places regarding
the matter OF the appointment of
a successor TO the late Bishop Manogue
of the Sacramento Diocese. The interest
taken by the Oaklanders is the result of
rumor that Rev. Father insolvency of
that city is to be the new Bishop.
Father insolvency was for time pas
tor OF st. Rose Church in this city after
Father Scanlan's departure to San Fran
cisco. He is very popular here, as we'll
as in Oakland and San Francisco, being q
very able and eloquent divine.
But there appears to be no real ground
for this rumor of his probable appoint

Sweeney's name was not among those
submitted to the Council at Rome, al
though he is very warm personal friend
OF Arch bishop Riordan. lie is now in
Europe, having been absent on furlough
for about year. The news of his prob
able appointment is said TO have been re-
ceived by private letter from Rome.
For the matter of that, 1t was rumored
here six weeks ago that the Council had
selected Rev. Father Grace, the present
The names submitted to the Council at
Rome were those OF Father Adam, Vicar
General of Los Angeles; Father Grace of
this city, Father Lynch of Virginia City,
Father Coleman of Marysville and Father
OConnor of Stockton.
While it is possible the new Bishop
may not be selected from among these
clergymen, it is more than likely that he
will be. Ii the Catholics OF Sacramento
could select a successor to Bishop Ma
nogue, there is little doubt that their
choice would fall upon Rev. Thomas
Grace OF this city, who is greatly beloved
by his flock for his many virtues, his
piety, his learning and his ability. This
may be said without detrac,ing at all
from the respect they entertain for others
among the candidates named.

a Cork Soled Pneumatic TIre'' and
an Electric Searohlight.
A thousand minds are busy inventing
appliances to increase the speed, useful
ness, comfort and portability of the BIZ
cycle. One man has patented what he
calls ''the cork -soled pneumatic tire"
Half of the space now occupied by COM
pound air is taken up with semi circu-
lar filling of cork, which is at once light
and yielding, and which the inventor
claims will prevent puDctures. He is
willing to ride with his cOrk-sOled pneu-
matio tires over miles of tacks, broken
glass and newly spread macadam, and
seems to think he has made big discov-
cry.
Another man sends in plan of a home
made bicycle lamp that will not go out.
Anordlnary thin, straight, drinking e lass
is first deity removed OF its bottom.
Then the exterior is painted dead black,
with the exception OF q small bulPs-eye.
The top and bottom are filled with thin
cork, in which holes are left for ventila-
ton, and the light is furnished by small
wax candles, such as are used on birth
day cakes aud in so-called fairy lamps.
The wax candle, it is claimed, will not
go out through vibration as readily as an
oil lamp. 1t will burn for two hours
steadily, and extra candles may be car
ried conveniently.
AS for saddles, not a day passes with
out the invention of some new one,
founded on anatomical or other prin-
ciples. There are pneumatic saddles and
coiled-spring saddles, aluminium saddles,
horn saddles, saddles on springs and sad
dies set firmly; racing saddles. longdis-
lance saddles, cantle saddles, single or
double "lugged" elastic truss saddles.
and many more that differ from others
only in the 1nerest detail.
a New England firm has placed upon
the market novel electric lamp, several
OF which have been seen during the eek
on the Boulevard. The lamp, a small
incandescent affair, is attached to the
visor of the cap. a small storage battery
of eight hours capacity is carried on the
wheel or in the pocket, with body wire
| leading from il 10 the terminal points on
the back of the cap. The lamp in front is
detachable in like manner, and weighs
about one and half ounces. In its very
nature 1t is a true eearchlight, the light
always being focused in the direction
that the rider is looking. and being on
the visor, the eyes are protected from the
glare.

THE ELEVENTH-srREET MAOADAM.
What superintendent Murray Says
Round Stone In Macadam.

y
What superintendent Murray Says
Round Stone In Macadam.
Tbs RECORD UNION desires nothing
less than justice to be done to any con-
tractor doing street work. Its aim is to
disseminate correct Information concern
ing street. making, and not to carp or
pick small flaws. When the people
thoroughly understand what true mac
adam is and what is false there will be
none of the latter laid, especially as it is
true that it costs no more to lay true than
indifferent maoadam.
Concerning the Eleventh-street mac
adam, superintendent Murray, whose
desire to do his tull duty Is not ques
toned, says it is to be three-layer work,
not two; that the large stone in the sub
structure is, therefore, not so objection
able. AS to the round and half-round
units of the metal, he says it is hand
broken cobble-broken last winter by the
unemployed under charity aid. All this
is for substructure.
AS TO rolling, the first layer is rolled,
with water pudding, by the best roller
procurable at present. it weighing six
tons and 700 pounds, with four-foot
tread. 1t is horse roller and not what it
should be, but is the best now at COM
mand.
AS to the statement that after rolling the
metal appears to be and is loose and free,
he says that the hauling in of the other
layers disturbs the surface units, and that
this cannot now be avoided. He thinks
the road way will be good one, especially
as it is three-layer work with fine stone
surfacing.
Accepting Mr.. Murray's statement as
exact, it remains to be said that it would
have been better to have waited I'M
til a ffteen-ton steam roller could have
been secured. That the RECORD UNION
is right concerning round stone in mac.
adam is verified by examination oil
