The social in the parlors of the Con-
gregational church on Tuesday last, re-
suited in the accomplishment of much
sewing work, and the serving of nearly
seventy suppers before the hour for the
entertainment. Instrumental music on
the beautiful new piano was enjoyed,
and several songs with piano accompani-
ment gave universal satisfaction. The
Rotations, "The Raising of Jairus'
Daughter" "The Raven" 1.-THE Servants
Mistake" and the paper upon current
events in Russia, each and ell helped to
make the occasion one of much enjoy
ment, and another social will be looked

like a good and profitable time.

The poet and philosopher, Ralph Wal

'If eyes were made fer seeing,
Then beauty is its own exuuse for being"
Beauty of features and elegance of
form have ever been the desire of the
feminine mind. And it is perfectly
laudable and natural ambition. Women
are born to sway the hearts and minds of
men as much by their beauty and attrac-
tiveness, as by the subtler charms of
goodness and purity.
And yet, how few women attain the
beauty which should be theirs, and in
those few who are beautiful, how quick
ly their beauty fades! This is wrong.
Women are naturally beautiful-at least
of pleasing and attractive appearance
and in nearly all the cases where women
lack these physical chaTms, the fault is
their own.
Good looks and beautiful forms are
entirely dependent upon good health.
One must have strong nerves and pure
blood to be beautiful. Failing to have

THE AMERICAS CUP,

The next big international event, and
one which will be watched with the
keenest interest all over the civilized
world is the race between the Ameri-
can Defender and the English yalky-
RE
To some the idea of an entire hemi-
sphere becoming so excited over what
they are pleased to term "boat race"
seems to verge upon the ridiculous. To
those, however, who look deeper, the
contest is one of the greatest interest.
It is not a question of boat against
boat SO much as it is a question of
nation against nation. 1t represents
brains, time and money expended, not
for the personal profit of the owners
alone, but to demonstrate the superb
GRITTY of American methods in yacht
building over those of our mother
country.
1t is the intense pride of Americans
in America that will cause millions of
hearts to beat with FASTENED speed,
many a cheer many hat in the air.
if Defender shall keep the cup this
side of the Atlantic.
The race this year will be of peculiar
interest, also, in the fact that hereto
fore in international contests the
struggle has been between British keel
yachts and American centerboarders.
For years, however, the builders have
been learning something, and so far
as can be learned at the present time,
there are no essential differences be-
tween Valkyrie and Defender, both be-
ing fn-keel yachts.
There was a time, soon after De-
fender was first launched, when it
seemed doubtful if the new American
boat would ever meet Valkyrie; the
recent victories of Defender over Vigil
liant, however, have settled it.
That the contest will be a close one,
all yachtsmen are free to admit; and
while every American would regret to
see the cup carried across the ocean,
it would seem to he nearly time for a
turn-about-nearly time that the Eng
lish had learned enough during the
years that they have been regularly
defeated.

THE COUNTY, CONVENTION.

The Democrats of Salt Lake county
have held their convention, and have
done noble work. Their chief task
was to name legislative ticket Of
five State Senators and ten State Rep
resentatives. And they named ticket
of which they may we'll be proud and
that the people can and will endorse
at the polls in November. There is not
an unknown man upon it. The effort
was to get the best men irrespective
of any geographical consideration or
any social consideration. This object
was accomplished, and its accomplish
ment brought out men from all parts
of the county, from all classes of So
ciety. No, not all classes; the capital
list class is not represented, for the
capitalist class, that class composed of
the rich and well-born," finds its
home and all that is congenial to it
in the Republican party. The ticket
is good; it is grand; it is one that we
can endorse with heart and soul and
recommend to the people most earn
estly
The nomination of Hon. J. L. Rawl-
ms and the Hon. Moses Thatcher as
salt Lake county's choice for candi-
dates for United States Senators is in
line with all the tendencies Of modern
Democracy. The policy of it brought
forth earnest speeches from those who
favored it and those who did not ia
vor it. But Democrats are always
earnest and fearless, because their
faith is based upon principle and con

IT WAS James A. Miner, Republican
candidate for judge of the Supreme
Court of Utah, who, as United States
district judge, heard the Kelly case at
Ogden in the spring of 1894. When
Mr.. Knapp, superintendent of the
Southern Pacific Railway company
at Ogden, was summoned before
Miner for contempt, Attorney Van
Colt asked Knapp whether he would
obey the orders of the court or the
instructions of his railroad super
Tors, and he Q<napp) said he would
obey the instructions of his superiors.
And what did Miner do? He did alb
solutely nothing, but permitted a
Southern Pacific official to insult the
majesty of the law and treat the
court with the profoundest contempt.
But that court, with Miner as judge,
was well worthy of the contempt it
received. Knapp knew the court and
treated it accordingly.

THE Supreme Court having reversed
Judge Smiths decision regarding the
right of women to vote at the ensu-
ing election, it is very much to be re-
GREETED that that reversal depended
on the opinion Of Judge Bartch, who is
before the people of the territory as a
candidate for the state Supreme
Court, and especially when it is re-
membered that it has been the preva-
lent opinion that the women vote in
Utah would inure to the benefit of the
Democrats rather than to the Republi-
cans, whose candidate Judge Bartch
is. In this view of the case Judge
Bartch will, in the minds of the peo-
pie, appear as party in interest to
his own decision.
