ACTORS SOCIAL POSITION.
Moliere Was Considered an outcast-
Refused Spiritual Consolation.

Chautauquan The time was in
France when the actor had no social
position and certainly no spiritual one.
Special disDensation was necessary
when the Catholic church allowed a
mass to be said for the repoSe of an
actors soul Professor Warren, de-
scribing the Moliere period, writes:
The social position of an actor in
Moliere'S time was a low one. Not
from any prejudice against the stage,
evidently, since the dramatists like
Corneille and Scarron were on the
same footing at the Hotel de Rambouil-
let and other saloons of Paris as poets
and eSSayiStS and were elected to the
French Academy as readily. Indeed, it
would seem as though the composition
of plays was the shortest road to dis
tinction in the Paris of Moliere, as it
is today.
But with the actors it was another
question. Their wandering, unset
tied modes of life had evidently told
against them. They were not admitted
to society whether their conduct was
good or bad. They were not even
considered in the light of literary per-
sons. Moliere met his friends, Boileau,
La Fontaine, Furetiere at public cafes.
AS writer of comedy he was either
not taken seriously or had incurred
too much hostility on the part of in
fiuential sets, the clergy through Tar
tuffe, the salons through Les Fem
mes Savantes. AS an actor he was
considered an outcast with his class,
and when on his deathbed he asked for
spiritual consolation his appeal fell on
deaf ears until it was too late. So that
it was with the greatest difficulty that
his widow procured a bit of conSecrated
ground in which to lay the remains of
the unShriVed comedian

COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
Inventory of the Property to Be
Made at Once.


The board of county commissioners
at its meeting yesterday took steps to
have an inventory of the county prop
erty made which was not done by the
! old board as the law provides. This
is thought to be a move to have the
| financial report corrected so that the
commissioners will know just the con-
/ dition the county finances are in. The
matter was brought up by this
resolution introduced by Seaman:
Whereas, There was no inventory of
| the property of Weber county on file in
| the clerks office furnishing the present
! board of county commissioners any
data. or information of the real estate,
| furniture and fixtures and other prop
| erty belonging to the county, and
| Whereas, The invitation issued by
this board to the ex-clerk and ex-com-
missionerS under date of Jan. Y, calling
their attention to the incomplete forms
of their financial report has met with
no response from either of the inter
ested parties, and
Whereas A complete inventory is
required and should be on file in the
clerk office. Now therefore be it
Resolved. That a committee of one
with clerk be appointed to search out
locate and list all property belonging
to the county of Weber"
The resolution passed and Seaman
was appointed to make the inventory
with the assistance of Clerk Hollings-
worth.
Collector Hurlburt submitted figures
showing that he had not only paid the
treasurer all the money which that
official was entitled to but nearly 81, 500
from the funds which he was entitled
to hold to pay the state for the de-
linquent state taxes and from the
funds which were paid under protest.
The board took a recess till this
morning at 10 o'clock, but Immediately
went into committee of the whole to
discuss the question of salaries for the
various officers, deputies and assist
ants.
County Attorney Peery has been
asked TO render an opinion as to what
power the present board has to re-
scind appointments made by the pre-
ceding board This doubtless is to de-
termine if the appointees rushed in by
the old board just before its term eN-
pired can be removed or not. The Of
fees affected are the county physician,
superintendent of poor farm and fish
and game warden. The opinion is ex-
pected in a day or two.

WANT FONDEVIELA.
Cubans VIII Make Short Shift of the
Murderer

Key West, Fla. Jan. 20.-Passengers
by the steamer Olivette tonight report
that the insurgents near Arranguren
last Saturday night stopped the train
bound from Regla to Guanabacoa and
made prisoners of II Spanish officials,
one of whom was a Cuban. They car
ried them to Jaruco, where they hung
the Cuban and after three days liber-
ated the Spaniards. The Spaniards are
loud in their praise of the treatment
accorded them by their captors, whom
they claim treated them as guests and
not as prisoners. The insurgents were
on the outlook for General Fondeviela,
the assassin, who was reported to be
a passenger on the train. They were,
however, disappointed, as he had
passed the day before. The insurgents
will make short shift of this officer if
he should fall into their hands, on ac-
count of the many murders committed
recently in GuanabacOa.
Weyler left Havana yesterday to join
the Spanish column operating near
Havana.
Eighty-five pacificos were made pris-
oners in Guiana bacoa yesterday.
