The Oregon Short Line.
When, like young giant, the re-
organized Oregon Short Line rail-
road strobe into existence a few
months ago, stretched forth its
mighty arms and tenderly embraced
the five sister states of Utah, Idaho,
Montana, Wyoming and Oregon, it
sent a delicious thrill Of pleasurable
anticipation through these growing
commonwealth, and they with good
reason, felicitated each other that
this powerful friend and protector
henceiorth belonged to them and to
them alone.
While the general public realized,
in a vague way, that the event was
one of considerable Importance to
this region, it is not yet fully awake
to its own good fortune, A magni-
ficent railroad enterprise, capitalized
at sixty million dollars, operating
fifteen hundred miles OF well
equipped road, connecting five OF
the inter-mountain states, has Sc
lcctcd this region as its home, incor-
porated under the laws OF one OF
these states, established here its
general offices, its shops and its de-
pots of supplies--in a word, has
stakcd its all upon the property OF
this Western empire. 1t is an event
calculated to stir the pride and en-
liven the hopes of any state or any
region in the Union.
The Oregon Short Line is fervidly
and enthusiastically a local institu-
ton. Its original formation was ac-
complished by consolidation of the
Oregon Short Line proper, extend
ing from Granger, Wyoming, to
Hunting, Oregon; the Utah &
Northern, from Butte to Ogden; the
Utah Central, from Ogden to Salt
Lake; the Utah Southern, from Salt
Lake to Juab; the Utah Southern
extension, from Juab to Frisco; the
Utah * Nevada, from Salt Lake to
terminus; the Great Salt Lake and
| Western, from Salt Lake to Eureka.
The pioneer, the Utah Central was
projected and constructed by Brig
ham Young. Each of these roads
was built to meet a local demand
and to build up and develop the
contiguous territory. They have
carried the torch of civilization and
set the wheels OF progress turning
throughout the whole inter-moun-
tain country, and consolidated and
recognized, they are destined to
become a still more powerful factor
in its commercial and industrial de-
velopment.
This great system occupies a
unique position among the railroads
OF the West. Its branch lines, un-
like those OF many other systems,
are not used as mere feeders to I'LL
the nav of some huge trans. cont
mental route; the country traversed
is not squeezed for the greatest pos
sible revenue, at the least possible

THE SHEFFIELD LECTURES.


The Closing Lecture Of the Course Toe
Night by Professor stephens of Cor
nell.
Professor II. Morse stephens of Corr
nell university is to give tonight the
last lecture in an unusually interesting
and successful course. He will speak
on the English in Australia, a subject
which is not very familiar to most peo-
pie in this country. but which should
be none the less interesting. Australia
is so vast territorially and so rich in
natural resources that 1t is destined to
be most productive part OF the Eng
lish empire, and it has of late years
been a particularly interesting field for
the study of social and economic prob
lens on account OF the great number
of radical legislative measures that
have been carried out there.
Professor III. Morse Stephens is q
graduate Of Oxford, where he studied
under DR.. Jowett at Balliol college. He
is a thoroughly trained historian, and,
having spent a good deal Of his life as
publicist before accepting the chair
Of history at Cornell, Is equally famil-
lar with current political subjects. He
is also an interesting and racy speaker,
and will probably draw large audi
ence.

Grand Opera House.

A packed house greeted Steve Brodie,
the king of the Bowery, in the realistic
piece, "On the Bowery," at the Grand
opera house last evening. There is no
need of New Haveners going Summing
in New York or doing the Bowery there
when they have an opportunity to see
the life of that thoroughfare so realis-
tically depicted as it Is in this piece of
Irodie's. Throughout the piece runs
an exact portrayal of the characters
ties of the denizens of the Bowery and
a vivid reproduction of the happenings
that give that famous quarter it's pc
culiar character. The scenery used
during the piece gives an accurate re-
production of the originals which they
represent, and the scene in the second
act which shows the interior of Bro
dies saloon on the Bowery is true to
the real in every respect. Around the
bar are the same pictures, and at the
tables are the same characters which
can be seen any day, or could be seen
in "the good old days"
The story of the piece is too we'll
known to need Tecounting but suffice
it to say that it is fully up to the sue
cess of its former productions and is, If
possible, even better The bridge jump
er has this year surrounded himself
with cast which supports him in every
detail perfectly. William Mitchell as
Delaney, the bum, is one of the best
| actorsin the cast. He gives a tinge of fun
to the piece which greatly enhances the
| natural humor of the situation, and is
a typical Bowery bum. Brodie's wife
is with him this year and takes a part
which she carries very creditably. She
is Mrs Gertrude Brodie, down on the
program as Vinen Edsall.
One of the finest scenes of the show
is that of the entrance to the Brooklyn
bridge in the third act. 1t is realistic
in every feature, and is one of the finest
scenes seen on the stage of the Grand
this season.
The piece will be produced this even
ing and tomorrow evening, with a mat
inee tomorrow. Popular prices pre-
vail.
A timely and thrillingly interesting
play is "Cubas Vow" which comes
