Among the losses is that of John H. Ludwig,
former resident of Shenandoah whose
building and stock was complete loss, placed
at $50 900; the insurance on both being SEQ,
600. The origin of the fire will probably
never be known, but it is surmised that it

UNIVERSITY LECTURE.
DIR. Howard On Facts and Fiction In
Natural History.

The third lecture of the University
public series was given last evening at
the laboratory building to a small but
interested audience. The speaker Of the
occasion was Dr. Orson Howard, who
chose for his subject Facts and Fic-
ton In Natural History. The profess
sor referred to the Wen known proverb
Of truth being stronger than fiction,
and went on to show the relation of
many superstitions commonly believed
in by people to the real facts. The
belief that cats suck the human breath,
that lizards dwell in human bodies, that
crocodiles shed tears, and the theory
of spontaneous generation was cited.
1T is as impossible for small organ
ism to be spontaneously generated as it
would be for an elephant" said the
speaker. He referred to the common
idea that a horsehair will turn into a
snake, explaining that the real hair
worm is a highly develope, A-0rganiSm,
while the seeming life-like motions of
the horse-hair are due to mechanical
laws. Other SuperStitiouS beliefs Spo-
ken of We're those such as geese de-
veloping from barnacles which have
gathered on the bulls Of ships and
pieces of wood floating in the water
toadS that live in the earth, sea. SER
penis that chase ships, gigantic earth
worms said to be $50 feet in length and
fifteen feet in diameter, which overturn
trees and tear up the earth, the prob
able origin of these beliefs and the true
facts in connection with them were ex-
planned from the modern scientific
standpoint. The folklore regarding the
origin and use of the mistletoe, the SUI
perstitions connected with the cross on
which Christ was crucified, and with
the weeping willow, quaking asp, and
other trees, was referred to, in addi-
ton to many subjects, and in each case
the scientific explanations were pointed
out. In conclusion the professor stated
that such superstitions as are common
even at the present day, would I'M
all fade away by the acquir-
ing of a good general education, the
common wasting of money, time and
labor in digging artesian wells, in man
useless machinery and in
other numberlesS ways would cease
with the study of natural laws.

To Attend Stockholders Meeting

RECENT ALTON DEAL.

porated to Build a Branch Of the
Western Into Strawberry Valley
Rock Islands Fast Train-Arthur
Morrison Promoted-Notes.

President Horace G. Burt and party OF
Union Pacific officials arrived yesterday
forenoon, and are quartered at the
Knutsford. Winslow S. Pierce, Judge
Kelly of Omaha and Alexander Millar
accompany President Burt, the party
travelling in car No. 100, built for the
president, and said to be one of the most
elegant transports in the world. Mr..
Pierce is general counsel for the Union
Pacific, and besides this represents the
Gould interests in all matters pertaining
to railroads. Judge Kelly is general So
licitor of the road, and Mr.. Millar sec
rotary.
The officials, as is well known, are here
for the purpose of attending the stock
holders meeting today, at which time
the common capital stock of the Union
Pacific is to be increased by the amount
of 81, 460, 100 and the way thrown open
for complete consolidation of this sys-
tenn and the Oregon Short Line.
What could be CLEANED from the party
on this subject, or on any other, for that
matter, does not amount TO a hill of
beans, but their presence in the city at
this time eXciteS considerable interest
in railway circles. A public wonders, and
with them a host of employees. whether
the ultimate outcome of the whole BUSH
or more properly speaking, the abolish
ment of the Salt Lake offices. That there
will be no radical change in this respect
seems an assured fact, and was, to a de-
gree. confirmed by one of the officials
yesterday.
None Of the party would discuss the re-
cent purchase of the Alton. The part the
Gould people played in it, as we'll as their
object has been covered fully in the As
ISOLATED Press dispatches.

It Wants to Construct a Line

ON THE U. P. RIGHT OF-WAY
ALTERNATIVE WRIT OF MAN
DATE ISSUED BY MARSHALL.
What the Telegraph Company Sets
Out-Suits of the United States
Against the Gibson Asphaltum
Company-Alleged Infringement
of a Trade Mark-Notes.

An alternative writ of mandamus
was issued by the United States circuit
court yesterday compelling the Union
Pacific Railroad company to appear in
court and show reason why the Postal
Telegraph Gable company should not be
permitted to erect a telegraph line on
the Union Pacific right of way from
Denver to Ogden.
In its petition the Postal Telegraph
Gable company sets out that it. Oper-
ates lines in forty-two states and has
5000 offices, the principal place of bust
ness being New York City. 1t is al
legged that the act of congress incorpo-
rating the Union Pacific Railroad COM
pany, provided for the construction of
telegraph lines along its track to sub
serve the interest of the government
and the public, making the railroads
pOst-roads. Wherefore the petitioner
claims the right to set poles for its line
along the right of way.
it is claimed that the Union Pacific
has made a contract with the Western
Union Telegraph company and diScrim-
mated against the Postal Telegraph,
refusing to haul material for the con-
struction of a line along its road. The
court is asked to compel the Union Pa
cific to haul the material of the petit
toners at the same rate as made to
others. and to permit the construction
of a telegraph line from Denver TO
Cheyenne on the east side of the Union
Pacific road and from Cheyenne to Og-
den on the north side of the track.

SHEEP THIEVES ENTER PLEAS
PLEAS OF NOT GUILTY ENTERED
BY ALL.
The Police Vigorously Searching For
Further Evidence-Curtis and
Raymond Probably Not Culpable.

Jack Richards, B. Y. Lamb, Arthur
Curtis and Norton Curtis. who were
captured by Chief Pratt and his off,
GERS Sunday for stealing sheep and
other property from John c. Mackaye
at Granger, were brought into police
court yesterday and arraigned on the
charge of burglary. 1t is charged that
they entered Mackaye's barn and stole
head of sheep, 1 calf, 1 set of har-
ness, sacks of oats and l sack of lu-
Germ seed, ali of the value of $3.50
The plea of not guilty was entered by
each, and an examination was set for
this afternoon at o'clock. In default
of furnishing $500 bail by each they
were taken to the county JAIL after be-
ing ''mugged'' by the photographer.
Sufficient evidence has not been found
to connect Raymond Curtis and c. Lit
tie with the offense, and they will prob
ably be prosecuted today for vagrancy.
Sheriff Abbott of Davis county came
down yesterday to see if some of the
property could be identified as that
stolen in his neighborhood, and it is
believed that some of the harness will
find an owner in that vicinity.
The officers were out yesterday in
search of further evidence of burglar
ious operations, but nothing of impor-
tance developed. Several parties who
have missed stock recently reported the
matter to the police yesterday, and it
now appars evident that much prop
erty of this class has been gotten away
with by the gang now under arrest.
Heber Macl1aye, a brother of the VIC
timiZed gentleman, reported yesterday
the loss of four sheep, which, he
thought, have gone the same way.
