70 the Honorable City Council of Salt
Lake City:
Gentlemen-We, the undersigned, cili-
zens and taxpayers OF this city, respect
fully represent:
That in consequence OF tho unusually
large deposits OF SNOW during the recent
exceptionally long winter, and the pecu-
liar conditions of the viauuct conveying
the waters of Cily Creek, there IL immi-
nent danger of an overflow which would
prove disastrous to property in the chief
business streets;
That should warm weather set in sud
denly, as Is highly probable, the volume
OF waler which would gorge the narrow
channel ON North Temple street would
not ind vent, particularly II debris in
the shape of trees, boulders, etc, should
bar the war- which would DO most
likely at points where an overflow would
prove OF the greatest danger.
That tho flooding OF easements and
cellars ON Main ami State streets, TO say
nothing OF the Temple Annex and other
places, which would be certain conse-
quence OF such flood. would render tho
municipality liable for enormous
damages, and prove II calamity TO the
sufferers greater than can now be esli-
mated.
We therefore urgently request your
hOnOThuIo Douy 10 thke immaculate steps
to avert Il catastrophe so vast and prob
able as this appears IN view OF tho un-
deniable facts. Delay would DO suicidal
and apathy would be criminal.

A DECORATED SALAD.

A DECORATED SALAD.
con as at supper, but they are naturally
associated with the evening supper.
Cold meats and fish are apt to be flavor
less. and the simple coating of mayon-
naise which some housekeepers use is
not sufficient to penetrate and season
them. The foundation meat Of all these
salads Of fish, flesh or fowl should be
laid in a marinade of salt, pepper and
vinegar, with sometimes the addition
of oil. "
Here follows q recipe for chicken sal
ad, which is omitted, rs most house
wives have their own notions about the
common salad. A few words on the ser
wing and decoration of supper salads,
however, may be helpful: "It is far
better to serve meat salad which you
desire to decorate for the supper table
on low crystal platter and reserve the
deeper salad bowl for dinner salads of
green leaves. When the mound of salad
is heaped on a low platter and masked
with mayonnaise, it may be simply dec
Grated with wreath composed Of the
heart leaves of lettuce and the white
crisped leaves Of celery, alternating
with hard boiled eggs cut in quarters.
The yolk of hard boiled egg is some
times chopped fine and scattered over
the mayonnaise. Sometimes this salad
is very elaborately decorated with
stoned olives, capers and beet roots, as
well as hard boiled eggs and bleached
lettuce and celery leaves.
A lobster salad is made much like
one Of chicken, except that the lettuce
is substituted for the celery. Decorate
the mound in the same way as the
chicken, substituting the small claws
of the lobster for the quarters Of hard
boiled eggs. Sprinkle the lobster coral
over the mask Of inayonnaise dressing
or mix some pounded coral through the
dressing TO color it pink.

The cocoanut tree is the most useful
CT all the plants in the tropical region,
Its seed furnishes food and an intoxi-
eating drink. The shell gives drinking
cups and vessels, and hard material,
capable of a high polish, from which
personal ornaments may be manu-
featured. The trunk furnishes wood
for dwellings and boats. The leaves
make clothing, cordage, and ropes. The
fibers of the bark and of the nut afford
mating and carpets. The buds furnish
a succulent vegetable; and from the
trunk a palatable liquor is drawn by
making an incision.

ing apparatus of q car OF this sort, De
cause the one at present in use is calcu'
lated to travel on the electric railroad
exclusively, but no such difficulty has
been experienced in the least. Instead
of being narrower than the ordinary
street car because of its peculiar form,
the duplex car, as it is called, is really
wider. The seats are arranged cross
wise on each side, with an aisle running
down the middle, just as in the ordinary
railroad passenger coach. Each Of these
seats will accommodate two persons,
and the seating capacity of the car is
therefore limited.
While it is true that the car now in
use is operated by electricity, it by no
means follows that this is the only mo-
tive power that can be used. 1t is the
idea of the projectors of the car to in
troduce it on all lines of railroads, steam
as well as street railroads. There are
o great many railroads that run obser-
walton cars, and the same trouble is al
ways experienced with them as with the
open street car when it rains. It is
held that if the new car is utilized on the
railroads in this fashion there will be
very much less objection by passengers
to making use of the observation car.

CYLINDRICAL CARS.
Perfectly Round in Shape and Ex-
ceedingly Comfortable.
Can Be Closed or Opened at Will and Are
Designed to Save Money for Roads
Operating Summer and Win
ter Cars.

A car has just been completed at
Concord, n. H., which eXemplities what
hasheretofore been considereda chimer-
ical idea of the novelist. 1t is cylin-
drical in form, just as the cars Jules
Verne and others have told of have been.
1t is no theory, but entire practice, and
it will save the railroad companies
many thousand of dollars.
The car is q curious embodiment of
genius and convenience. 1t is prac-
tically cylindrical in form, although
this by no means interferes with the
seating arrangement. It's chief claim
to fame, however, lies in the fact that
each section of the sides, with windows
of curved glass, slides up under the
roof, Just as the curtain of the roll top
desk disappears as it is pushed upward.
Just as the sides disappear a running
board drops down just below the floor
of the car, and in the usual position on
the outside. In this way is the COM
Portable closed ear transformed into
very neat appearing open car, that is as
comfortable a vehicle of that sort as can
well be imagined.
The value of cars of this sort for q
street railway company can easily be
understood, says the New York Herald.
Under present methods it is necessary
to keep u much larger amount of rolling
stock on hand than would be the case if
the newly invented cars were used. AS
it is, we have GUNNER and winter cars.
Under the new arrangement there
would only be one sort of car, and, there
fore, it would be wholly unnecessary to
have part of the company's capital tied
up in lot of cars.
Again, this new invention removes
one of the greatest evils of the open car.
1t often happens that during the sea-
son of the year when the open car is
most in evidence q storm sweeps down
and dashes rain through curtains and
all over passengers. With this new car,
in case of storm of that sort, the sides
could be promptly rolled down and the

Not long ago a farmer who lives
miles from here, came to my store be-
fore breakfast and bought a bottle of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. He
said their little boy had a bad cold,
and as they had used up what they had

go to pillow until he came and got an
other bottle. The little boy. who was

Ingenuity of q Small BOY.

\ boy of six years begged cent of

junction that it must not be spent for

night how he spent the cent, and the
boy said he had traded it to Sammy
Green for knife; Sammy bought
candy with it and divided the sweet
stuff, and then the knife was returned
to Sammy.

The accompanying illustration shows
accurately the interior of the new car.
This is exactly as the car appears on
the line of the Concord On. H. street
railway, where it is being operated.
All sorts of tests have been applied to
it, and it has been run in all kinds of
weather, but the emergency is yet to
arise in which it does not give distinct
satisfaction.
The lowering or raising of the cars
sides is by no means a difficult task,
for so perfect is the mechanism and so
smoothly do the sides glide up and
down that it is really of less difficulty
to lower or raise them than it is to ar
range the curtains of the open car that
is in use at present. In addition to that,
there is never any wet sheet of canvas
Tapping in your face, nor does the driv-
ing wind force a stream of water gently
down the back of your neck.
It might be thought that there would
be some difficulty in operating the light

Record.

Live life that is rather rare,
We have so many good walks to take,
And so few hard things to bear-
s. muchlthat gladdens and recreates,
SO little of wear and tear.
Sometimes it blows and rains,
But still the six feet ply;
No care at all to the following four,
If the leading two know why
IT'S pleasure to have six feet, we think,
NY little rough dog and I.
And we travel all one way;
'Tis thing we should never do,
To reckon the two without the four,
Or the four without the two;
1t would not be right, if anyone tried,
Because it would not be true.
And who Shall look up and say
That it ought not so to be,
Though the earth that is heaven enough
for him
Is less thar hat to me?
For the little rough dog can wake JOY
That enters ernity.

that essays to be the reform leader can afford to
keep silent upon vital issues To speak out
may create new enemies but he will lose more
by refusing to do so. The politician that wishes
to play the ''artful dodger" should keep himself
out of sight. But this Mr. Bryan is not doing.
He goes everywhere, and compes attention,
and, therefore, cannot escape criticism lie
gained his hold OIL the people by the courage
with which he appeared to put the cause IN
which they were most deeply interested above
party and he can retain it only by continuing
to act i'll the same way
1t seems to us that the proper course for Mr..
Bryan to pursue, is to carefully study the great
questions that are pressing tor solution, and,
entirely ignoring his candidacy, clearly express
his views thereon, as they are formed. We do
not insist that he shall take radical position OH
this, that, or the other question. but that he
shall express his real convictions upon them,
and then leave the people to decide whether he
is the man they wish for President. He should
relegate to his Democratic supporters the task
of bringing sufficient number of Democrats
up to the plane upon which reform forces will
be possible in 1900. That is, Mr.. Bryan, II he
wishes to be president must keep himself in
touch with, and be the leader Of, the intelll-
gent, practical reform element in all parti es'
and leave the lesser work to men that occupy
less prominent positions before the whole pco-
pie.
As large man as Mr.. Bryan undoubtedly IS,
he does not overshadow the continent. 1t ne
falls behind-has to be adjudged too much OF
politician-other will come to the front.
Governor Atgeld has already become tormid'
able figure Chas. A. Towne would made IN
ideal candidate, under whose banner the Young
men of the Nation will rally with wild n
thusiasm Wharton Barker has many stro ig
points, There is no lack of presidential II Il
Der in the reform ranks, but we repeat and e!il-
phasze the warning that the reform plattol II
and candidate, in 1900, must besuch that tn :
results of victory cannot be doubtful. We
can better afford to be beaten at the polls than
to be betrayed afterwards.
Do not misunderstood us. We still believe
Mr. Bryan,s heart is right and wish to see him
nominated if he will turn deaf ear to time
servers and again show himself to be a real
leader. But, if he is sinking into mere party
manager, he will have to rely entirely on his
own party.
And, further, if the managers OF the Demo
cratic party wish it to have future they must
make it all acceptable home for the reform ele-
lnents i'll other parties.
