as to the accomplishment Of that purpose.
Their idea was to construct play that

and profund heart interest, depicting types
of characters ind and people familiar to the
American public. The cast is filled with
names that have known distinction in the
profession. including Rose Eytinge, Mrs
Annie Yeamans, Cora Edsall, Louise Closer
Fanny Cohen, Joseph E. Whiting, George G
Boniface, T. M. Hunter, II. II. Horton, E. A.
Locke, Gustave Frankel, James Bevans and
others. Realistic scenes are depicted IN a
palatal mansion on Fifth Avenue, clothing
house in Hudson street, the famous cafe Of
the Hoffman House and the slums. The
mounting of these scenes is the effective work
of the famous artists, Henry f. Hoyt, Rich
ard Marston, and Ernest Albert; in fact, all
the stage craft could do to make the pro-
duction picture Of actual existence has been
accomplished by its managers, Mrs. A. M
Palmer and Edwin Knowles.

Too BAD.-The pavcments do not reach
to the High School lot on the south side OF
Main street and there is no street crossing
from those on the north side, that do extend
that far and beyond. The front of the lot
has not been filled nor n path made and the
pupils wade through mud that comes above
the rubber overshoes. Comment is unnec-
essary but question may not be wholly out
of place: whose duty is it to remedy this?

Fairmont, w. Va. January 1.-THE
coal business at the Marion county
mines remains about the same as re-
ported in our last letter. The work Is
not as good as was expected, but this
is owing principally to the slight de-
mand for coke. Another case of dam
ages has been in the Circuit Court this
week. similar to the one tried week be-
fore last. The case is for $4,000 dam
ages and is brought by Mary Cornell
against the Clark Coal and Coke Co:
Hezekiah Cornell, her son, was Killed
in the mines in September, 1898. The
attorneys for both sides have left no
stones unturned. The case has not yet

BRIGHAM YOUNG'S SONS
THE UTAH JUBILEE PRO-
CESSION
Old Scenes Recalled and Lots of En-
thusiasm Shown by the Old and
the New Citizens

SALT LAKE, Utah, July 21-The en-
thusiasm which took possession of the
city yesterday on account of the Pioneer
celebration was no less pronounced to-
day. Everybody was taking a genuine
interest in the great parade which was
to take place at II o'clock. Thousands
of people thronged the route of the pro-
cession and filled every window and
place that afforded a favorable view
Leading the procession between these
living walls of humanity were Director
General Brigham Young and his corps
Of assistants. After Director General
Young came Grand Marshal Nat M.
Brigham and aides mounted and wear
ing yellow sashes.
Nearly 200 Indians followed, represent
ing the oldest Inhabitants.''
Jim Bridgers cabin was unique and
characteristic float. The Fremont
county, Idaho, band followed, playing
stirring airs.
The first house in Utah was a realistic
float that suggested many things not
actually depicted.
The slow OK team of AZ was followed
by an electric car. The first legislative
hall was on wheels and the only sur
vivor of that legislature, Hon Lorin A.
Farr of Ogden rode alone in a carriage
behind the float.
In a stoutly built carriage were fifteen
men representing the Nauvoo Legion.
In an adobe float was to be seen the
press upon which the Deseret News was
printed in 1850. Printers devils in lurid
colors grinned from open doors upon the
spectators.
The typical old overland stage was
crowded with passengers, and rifles and
other firearms protruded in the most
threatening fashion.
Next in line came a banner on which
was inscribed the first message trans
mitted over the newly constructed tele-
graph linesIt was from Acting Governor
Fuller to President Lincoln.
The Union Pacific engine and twenty
cars, being the first to enter Salt Lake,
evoked hearty applause as it followed in
the procession with full head of
steam on.
Many other interesting features repre-
senting the early settlement of the west
made up the long line of march, which
was enlivened by numerous bands of
music.
At Saltair pavilion there was a con-
cert this afternoon by Chrietensen's Or
chestra, and a beautiful ceremony of the
Wedding of the Waters"
The proceedings terminated with a
grand ball in honor of Utah" and her
maids and the county queens.
Tonight concert and musical contest
was given in the tabernacle, and pioneer
talent amused a large audience at the
Salt Lake tl1eater.
