Beneath the mimic forest trees of the
Salt Lake theatre stage, the leaders of the
Western Jurisdiction of Woodmen of the
World last night jubilated with music and
song and sounded the praises of their
order. The crowd was so large that
standing room was used in the pit and
even the lofty precincts of the third gal
1ery were crowded and the audience filled
the stage 10 the extent of its capacity

PREsIDENT'S REPORT.

The report CT President Isaac B.
Potter primarily dwelt at length upon
the progress OF the good roads move
ment in the league He then called
attention to the fact that ten states
have passed laws requiring bicycles to
be carried as baggage without extra
charge, and bills are now pending in
the legislatures of Kentucky, Virginia
and Maryland for the same purpose.
This policy on the Long Island railroad
alone increased the traffic from 20, 900
cycling passengers in 1886 to 160,5 800 in
1891. He recommended that the pub
fishing of an executive bulletin of news
and notes relating to the general work
of the league and its separate divisions
be continued. He also recommended
the continuance OF the loan fund,
which served an excellent purpose
within the last year. During the past
year 54,I93 new members have joined
the league and 4S.0l7 of the old mem
bers have renewed. But, as in former
years, the percentage of renewals is
by no means satisfactory. In closing
his report President Potter dwelt
briefly on the distrust that was ex-
pressed il southern California, owing
to the failure of the passage of an
in the last assembly to
sanction Sunday racing. He main
tanned that the deliberate judgment of
the national assembly must at all
times prevail

LIBRARY HOURS.

The library will remain open from
10 a. m. until 10 p. m, except on Sun

already been placed on the shelves and
classified. All the books, it is expected,
will be on the shelves at the hour the

ENGINES PROBABLY BROKE DOWN.
That is Capt. Pierce's Idea Of Cause Of Wreck
OF the Portland.

Bangor, Me, Nov. 29.-Capt Marcus
Pierce of the Boston & Bangor steamer
Peaobscot, was in town, Tuesday, and.
when asked about the wreck of the
Portland said: Il think the Portland $
engines must have broken down. Had
Blanchard had his engines he would
have worked her one way or the other
by the danger
Capt. Pierce believes that the Port
land thus went adrift and came down
on the gale in spite of all that could be
done for her The wind was from such
a quarter that it would bring her down
on lee shore.
Capt. Pierce speaks highly of Capt.
Blanchard of the Portland, who, he
says, was a skilful navigator and a
man of experience with the New Eng
land coast. He says that Blanchard
had been a captain for only about a
year.
