THE "HUMAN MAGNETS. "
IMMENSE AUDIENCE AT THE THE
ATRE LAST EVENING.
The House Was Packed From Pit
to Dome-A Number of Affected
Only the Afternoon and TO Men
Only in the Evening.

An immense audience packed the
theatre last night, the Human Mag
nets" being the attraction. 1T was a
remarkably intelligent audience, too,
and included a number OF physicians,
who, of course, went out of curiosity
Every seat within the house was oc-
cupied within a short time after the
doors were thrown open, and stand
ing room was soon at a premium.
The stage was decked out with
flowers, ported plants and palms and
looked very attractive with its artistic
settings.
Preliminary 10 the experiments,
Professor ". Fletcher Hall delivered
an interesting lecture on the power of
vital magnetism as a curative agent
Following this. the magnets made
their appearance. The affected ones
were then invited to go on the stage
and be treated, and a number re-
sponded. During the evening a score
or more went TO the front, some being
afflicted with rheumatism, others with
deafness and one with paralysis.
Nearly all of the subjects appeared
to be we'll known to the audience, and
some were certainly afforded relief.
This afternoon, the exhibition, or
whatever it may be termed. will be
for ladies only, and Professor Hall
will speak on Suffering Woman and
Her Heroic Fortitude."
This evening Professor Hall will
speak to men only, on the subject

w. Howard Of the A r. u. now in
the VIII county jail in Illinois. ask
ing for an opinion on the negligence of
railway companies in not complying
with the law on safety appliances des-
ignated by Congress. His reply was as
follows:
''On behalf of the railway employees
Of the country 1 earnestly object to
any extension of time to railroad COM
panies for equipping their cars with
safety appliances as required by law.
Nearly 5000 of the people of this ma
ton are killed and moro than $4,000
wounded each year because of the
failure of railroad companies to equip
their cars and tracks with appliances
to protect life and limb in accordance
with the law. When employees are
charged with violating the interstate
commerce law they get no extension
Of time for anything, unless it be an
extension of a term in some Jail for
such alleged violations, and fines pro

lected and never RENTED. Let the law
be enforced against all citizens of this

1t appears that the troubles within the
fire department are to have a hearing
before another tribunal hitherto I'M
touched by them. They have bothered
the board of fire and police commission
ers, the Third district court and the SUI
preme court. but so far the police court
has escaped their devastating influence.
However, now even that august tribunal
is to be drawn into the charmed circle

Gently discharged because of the cutting
down of the force. Will appear today to
answer to the charge Of using abusive
language. The complaint is sworn to by
W. II. Bywater, captain and acting as

house.
Since the recent troubles in the de-
partment came to head, an order has
been posted in No. 2 that no one shall be
allowed in the house except the firemen
regularly employed and others on bust
ness only. According to the. story told
against Splain, he first went down to the
mouse the other day and wanted Bywater
10 come out on the sidewalk and fight
him and used a great deal of abusive
language Bywater refused to be Drawn
INTO row and Splain went away. On
Sunday night he returned, went into the
mouse and wanted to have a row again.
Mr.. Bywater was asked about the case
yesterday, but refused to talk, saying

The story of Splain disagrees materi-
ally with the other. He says that on
Sunday night be was going past the en-
CINE house with his wife and went in
there to set his cap, which he had left.
While on this business he was ordered
out by Bywater, who told him he could
not come into the house. He says he
then answered the acting assistant, with
more force than politeness, that he would
not go out until he got his cap and that
there was not man in the house who

THAT REoRGA NIzATION.
Gov. Evans Talks About the Alleged
L. p. Scheme.

Brief reports have been received re-
earding Governor Evans views on
that alleged scheme to reorganize the
Union Pacific system under one man
agement. His entire statement as
given in the Denver News is of interest
on account of the decision at Portland
yesterday:
The press dispatches have stated
that the Union Pacific reorganization
committee contemplated a move which
would again place under one manage
ment the Union Pacific road and all
its branches, as was the case peIore
separate receivers were appointed for
the various branches. Ex-Governor
John Evans was yesterday asked MS
opinion of the proposed change, and in
reDlv stated that he had no opinion TO
express as he had no information OF
anv such intention and knew nothing
of the plan upon which the union OF
interests was TO be effected. AS Tor
the reorganization committee, he was
of the opinion that there was none. as
that committee was dissolved last
wear when it failed to submit a plan
Irpon which the various roads could be
brought into one combination. AS
matters now stand, Congress is the
only body that can take any steps IN
the matter, and the only intimatlon he
had that any such move was contem-
Mated was contained in the neage
press dispatches.
Since the old combina ton was broken
I'm and the various lines began doing
business on their own account,
marked Improvement, both in efficiency
and the amount of business done, has
been noted. Instead of being allowed
to remain stagnant and made to act
only as builders UP of traffic for the
Union Pacific road, the various lines
have improved their facilities, have
done a larger amount of business and
have materially increased their reve-
nues This was never more manifest
than during the past week, when thou-
sands of eastern visitors availed them
selves Of the opportunity to enjoy
some of the finest scenery in Colorado

ments along the Fort Worth, the South
Park and the Colorado Central lines
are notable instances.
The benefits of separate operation

ately concerned, as the state profits as

Those Christian Endearor Tickets.

The manner in which Christian En-
deavor tickets were manipulated, will
now require Christian and heroic for
titude for the passenger men to set
tie up without q row. The western
lines. upon solicitation of the trunk
lines, agreed and sent the people TO
Boston on through tickets. The Erie
continued the sale of such tickets be-
yond the date agreed upon, when the
western lines extended the limit to
cut even. Boston is loaded up with the
return portions, and even its Chicago
scalpers have RATS of them. The
trunk lines refuse to honor the addi-
tionaI limit, and the western lines
won't take the worst of the deal.
They contemplate putting in a. special
low rate coming west until August 8,
in order to head off the scalpers-it's
ALWAYS the case

name of William Wallace. though he is
said to have served his term under the

The S. P. has knucKled down to the

move was a complete success, mas
much as the S. P. has agreed TO put
