opera house, now that the old

want a place of amusement.
There's nothing like being de-
prived of a thing TO make
people feel they must have it.
But where is the money to
come from? The people here
who have money to spare are
not those who build theatres
or anything else through pub
lie spiritedness, there must be
in sight some return for the
investment and none can be
seen in the theatre project. 1t
is pretty well understood that
the old opera house was an
expense of about two thousand
dollars a year to its owners
with an Offset of about $500
per year for rentals. Not
much money in the invest
ment is there? Americans

has its opera house and two or
three electric railway lines, but
if you ask who built them you
will learn that it was through
the energy and enterprise of
men who had corner lots and
outside property for sale.
Honolulu is one place on the
map that has not had, and
probably never will have, a
real estate boom; its 'iust a
stiddy growth" An opera
house will not bring any better
returns in Honolulu than
would an ice factory at the
North Pole and the people |
who want one built know it. |
How many people are there in |
Honolulu that would subscribe
a thousand dollars each toward |
building one? Not a dozen
outside the editors of the news
papers; but show an invest
ment that will bring them a
guaranteed return of IS per
cent. and they would tumble
over each other to put their
names down on the subscrip-
ton list.

VALUE OF BALL BEARING.

An experiment with ball bearings
was recently made in Canada. A street.
car fitted with ball bearings was drawn
a distance of several hundred feet by
men pulling on the three strands of or
binary sewing thread. A carriage,
manufacturer put another style of ball
bearings on the axles of coach ordi-
nsrily pulled by four horses. A trained
dog was hitched to the pole, and he
drew the coach around the yard with
little effort. - Daily Bulletin.

MOSES THATCHER.

Moses hatcher was born in Illinois,
February ., 1912. With his fathers
family, he reached Salt Lake valley
in September, 1S47. Early scenes con-
nected with the expulsion of the Nor
mons from Nauvoo, and the hardships
and sun> ing encountered at Winter
quarters, The long journey across the
plains and the subsequent restitution
endured here. strongly impressed the
rliEd of Moses Thatcher, and early
aroused in him a disposition to con-
tend against prejudice and injustice,
wh4rever and whenever encountered.
HY Naccompanied his fathers family
TO California in 1S49, and returned to
Utah in 1853.
The migrations of his boyhood years
deprived him of the advantages of
early education, he having entered no
school until II years of age. He has
since been a hard student, having dill
gently sought knowledge from the best
books, and being an accurate reader
of human nature, is now deservedly
classed among the well informed men
of the territory.
He represented Cache and Rich coun-
ties several terms in the territorial
legislative council, and was a member
of the constitutional convention of
1872.
He is now one or the board of trus-
tees Of the Brigham Young College of

At $50 last evening a special train
land with a large party of Union Pa
cific officials on board. They have been
attending the hearing at Portland on
the application for a separate receiver
for the Oregon Short Line, matter
of immense Importance to the Union
Pacific system.
The case came up before Judge Gil
bert, at Portland, on demurrer, some
of the ablest lawyers in the country
being engaged in the legal battle. AS
to the arguments made, the public has
been kept fully posted through the
extended press dispatches received
daily.
Judge Gilbert is expected to decide
upon the demurrer today. and should
it be overruled, the trial will probably
be proceeded with without delay.
Those who arrived here yesterday
were Receiver S. H. H. Clark. General
Manager Dickinson, e. L. LomaX, Chief
Engineer Pegram, Superintendent w.
H. Bancroft. S. w. Eccles, r. W. Bax-
ter, E. E. Calvin, P. NJ. Schumacher,
general freight agent at San Francisco.
and Stenographers Joseph Sykes and
Edward Williams.
I'VE are confident that the Union
Pacific will win this case on the de-
murrer," said one of the party to a
Herald reporter. 1T seems very clear
to me that the law and the facts are
both on our side. The attorneys for
the Union Pacific were thoroughly
equipped and made a splendid fight.
The argument of John NJ. Thurston
was one of the finest things I've lis
tened to. OF course, we may be over
enthusiastic over our side of the case,
but the agony will soon be over"
The Herald found that all the
members of the party were
equally enthusiastic over the prospects
and should the decision go against
them, they will be disappointed lot
of men, Just how long the magnates
will remain will depend upon Judge
GiYberts decision today. Should the
demurrer be overruled, they will ar
range to return to Portland at once
Should it be sustained, as they all an
ticipate, they will remain over until
tomorrow.
Mr.. Clark was given a warm welcome
bv his many friends in Salt Lake. He
is in better health than usual and takes
a philosophical view of the present sit
uation.
The members of the party dined at
the Alta club last evening.

souE TELEPHONE IMPROVEMENTS
Double Metallic Circuit Between
Salt Lake and Lehf.

Orders have been placed by the Rocky
Mountain Bell Telephone company for
the. necessary materials to be used in the
double circuiting Of its system between
this city and Lehi and Ogden and Logan,
and in the making of number of extern
sions during the coming open season.
At a recent meeting of the board of di-
rectors of the company the management
was authorized to proceed at oIlce with
the placing of q metallic circuit between
Salt Lake and Lehi, in order that the
Tintic-Mercur system might be lndepend-
ent of the Provo and southern line, and
Immediately following the receipt Of the
first consignment of supplies this work
is to commence and be prosecuted with
all the speed possible. 1t is also desirable
that a double circuit be put in between
Ogden and Logan, and this work will
claim the attention of the field conStruc-
southern Improvement is made. With the
stringing of these new wires the telephone
system in Utah will be as nearly perfect
as it is possible to make it.
Again is the matter of the proposed
extension of the system from Franklin,
Ida. to Malad, under discussion. and the
indications are that this Improvement will
be ordered within the next lew weeks
The people of Malad and the cities along
the route of the extension are making
great efforts to secure the connection and
they are willing to materially aid the com
pany in constructing the line. Should
favorable action be taken by the COM
pany it would mean the extension of the
system some thirty miles and an extern
sive section of country would be opened
up to the business OF the telephone COM
pany. There is little doubt as to the out
come OF the new negotiations which are
now on, and the citizens of Malad may.
If present indications are not anilss. rest
assured of close communication with the
capital city within the next three months.
Since the placing of the new switch
hoard the company has made every ef-
fort to induce its subscribers in this city
to make use of the improved long dis
lance instruments. The extra cost to
the patrons of the company for the i'm
proved machines is comparatively light,
while to the COMPANY the cost of main
terance is nearly double. There is a
great Improvement IN the service. how
ever. and as that is what the company
has been striving for, the additional ex-
pense is not considered bv it. Many are
the letters of copgratulation which have
| been received from all PARTS of the
country upon the successful inaugUra-
ton Of the exchange in the new building
on State street and a large number of
INQUIRIES regarding the improvements
which have been made are daily received
