MONUMENT WILL Be FINISHED
SPEEDY COMPLETION OF BRIG
HAM YOUNG STATUE.
Sculptor Dallin Ordered to Cast the
Two Figures as Designed-Finan-
cial Statement.

The announcement is made that the
Pioneer monument on Main street is to
be speedily completed. Nothing has been
done on the monument since the granite
base and shaft and the statue of Brig
ham Young in bronze were erected just
prior to the memorable jubilee of July "a,
1897
The work as it now stands represents
cost of about $4,000, one-third of which
went for the stone work. Less than half
of this sum was raised at the time of
erection. and the Mormon church either
advanced or guaranteed the payment or
the balance. TO date 81. Ms has been
subscribed by thousands of contributors,
and the amount necessary to pay off the
debt and complete the monument will be
solicited from the several stakes in the
church.
During the recent visit of Sculptor Dali
lin it was arranged that he should have
the bronze castings that are TO embel!ish
the east and west footings made in Bos-
ton at once from designs heretofore
agreed upon. These designs are of groups
of pioneers and Indians. The cost OF these
designs will be about 5000.

cOLBORN AS A LION tanner
MAKING PREPARATIONS FOR
HIS DEBUT.
Insists That lie Will Enter Sultana's
Cage "While Sultana Is In the
Cage"

Judge Colborn is beginning to have
a wild, haunted look about his eyes as
the preparations for his debut as a
lion tanner are being made. 1t is ru-
mored that he has ordered wig similar
to Boccaccio's, and friends have sug-
gested that a suit of mail would be a.
practical means of warding off the at
tacks of the lion. The judge was seen
last night comforting with Bandmaster
Christensen, and later the bandmaster
was looking over his list of funeral airs
with serious mien.
Manager Mundy and the judge met
casually in the palace last evening.
What will you give me to let you
out of this contract, judge?" asked
Mundy-
Nothing, you old codger," the judge
retorted. You ought to read Quo Vadis,
and then you could understand what
bravery is. But let's discuss this, Mum
DIV. You understand, / suppose, the
terms of my bet. / said 1 would enter
the cage of Sultana when Sultana was
in the cage. Understand? Well, that
is what l am going to do"
He'll wriggle out through that state
ment some way, muttered Mundy,
soto voce, as the judge wandered off
to stir lD the lioness and to see just
how savage she is.
Boccaccio, the man of nerve and dar
ing, who enters the cage nightly, said
that he wouldn't like to speculate on
Judge Colborn's chances with Sulta-
ma. He says he's going in said the
trainer, and l guess he is"
Manager Mundy and the judge held
a. star chamber consultation late in the
evening. The only announcement they
would give out was that the Judge
would enter Sultana's cage while Sui
tana was in the cage" on Friday night

c. 4, R. CLAIMS IT is SIGHTED
REFUSES TO TAKE PART IN THE
DEWEY RECEPTION.
Objects to Being Placed at the End
of the Parade and Wants Prom
inent Place.

New York, Sept. 20.-Unless the plans
OF General Charles F. Roe, chairman of
the land parade committee of the Dew
ey celebration, are changed, the G. A.
K. organization will not be represented
inCthe parade.
Joseph w. Kay, department COM
mander of. the New York Grand Army
OF the Republic, today sent a letter to
General Roe, declining the invitation
Tor a number of reasons These are,
in brief, that the G.. A. r. forces have
been placed at the end Of the process
sion instead of the head of the column
that General Roe has taken no cogniz-
ance of Commander-in-C Chief Albert D.
Shaw and has sent him no invitation to
any of the functions. The invitation
for the G. A. r. organizations to par
tlcipate in the parade has been ex-
tended second hand through Colonel H.
II. Adams, and that General O. O.
Howard has been placed in command of
the G. A. r. forces on the day of the
parade. contrary to the regulations of
that organization.
The decision to decline the invitation
was reached at a meeting held this
afternoon, COMMANDMENTS Chief Shaw.
Department Commander Kay, Past De-
partment Commander Atkinson and
Colonel ]. A. Goulden, chairman of the
memorial committee of the G. A. r.,
being present. This action has been
contemplated for some time and the en-
tire matter has been placed before Cen
eral Roe, who refused to reconsider his
plans. Commander-in-Chief Shaw in
sisted that the G. A. r. organization
should have the head of the line of
march, and should be under command
OF its own officers. He pointed out that
General Howard, who had been desig-
mated to command the forces, has no
authority to call out the posts, and
that they could not respond to his call,
even if they so willed.
The officials of the G. A. r, consulted
with Mayor Van Wyck. recently and he
expressed his approval of the change
they demanded. They referred the mat
ter also to Governor Roosevelt and re-
ceived a telegram from the governor
stating that he was in favor of the
change and that it should be made, as
it would be one of the most desirable
testimonials of the feeling toward Ad-
miral Dewey, member of the G.. A.
r., if he were escorted by guard of
honor composed of his comrades.
Chief among the reasons given by
General Roe in his final refusal to alter
the position assigned to the Grand
Army was that the parade would be in
every sense a military one, and that
according to regulations, such an un-
armed body of men as the G. A. r.
cannot march before a body of men
bearing arms.
The G. a. r. officials, however. claim
that the parade is in no sense mill
tary one. but a city one.
General Roe estimates that there will
be 3d. 800 men in line from New York,
New Jersey, Maryland, District of Co
lumbia, Ohio, Connecticut, Georgia,
Texas, Florida, South Carolina, New
Hampshire. Rhode Island, Mississippi
and Missouri. There may be others,
but those enumerated are all that have
reported to the committee as certain
to. be here.

SHE FOUND THE DIAMOND RING
WONDERFUL DREAM OF A PRO
VO GIRL. ~
Mr.. Holbrool1's Daughter Proves
That the Age of Miracles Is Not
Passed-Got What She Wanted.

An interesting story comes from Pro-
vo regarding the age of miracles. For
those who are 20; superstitious it is
doubly entertaining. During a recent
visit of President George @. Cannon to
the southern town, he was entertained
atfthe home Of L. Holbrook, manager
Of the Grand Central mine. Mr. Hol-
brooks 15-year-old daughter, Aura, told
President Cannon that she had
dreamed three times that she found a
diamond ring, and in the third dream
a man giving his name as Vaness, and
address Dallas, Tex, had told her he
lost ring While going through Provo
ten years ago, and that she could find
it under certain rock, giving minute
details as to the location of the same
President Cannon listened to the story
with interest, and at its conclusion told
the girl she should follow up her dream.
Aura got on her wheel and rode away
In less than two minutes she returned,
holding the diamond ring in her hand.
She claims to have found it in the place
described by her dreamland visitant.
1t is interesting TO know that Miss
Aura has fondness for diamond rings,
and has answered great many adver-
tiSementS of them.

Many a good old year ago
When travel was dangerous and dear,
A Woolwich gentleman Travelled far
To where the Lebanon cedars are.
And he brought home cedars, taught
them to grow.
And set them up in a prim dark row
On guard in the garden here.
He lived and he died. and quiet he lies
Where the roots of the live things creep;
And Summer and Winter. and sun and
snow,
Have watched his cedars greater and
grow
Ger the smooth green lawn, that old
age makes wise
With a quiet wisdom no hot sun dries,
No wild rains drown TO sleep.
And I sit in the cedar shade and think,
As 1 empty the cider bowl.
OF the travelled gentleman long ago,
Who taught my beautiful cedars to grow.
And / sigh with content. and I'LL TO the
brink
The bowl. and lift. and lovingly drink,
To the Woolwich genueman's soul!

A Business Proposition.
Chicago News.)


One Chicago man successfully repealed
an importunate beggar on State street
last evening. He was waiting for car
when a shabbily dressed human being
shuffied up to him and gasped out re-
quest for five cents to pay for a bed and
a bowl of soup. AS the request was
strongly tainted with suggestions of
alcoholic Indulgence the man looked him
carefully in the eye for moment and
then said You look like reasonable
fellow: I'll make you a straight business
proposition. I'll step into this drug store
with you and each of us will take out all
the money he has in his clothes and let
the clerk divide equally between us. Is 1t
go?''
The beggar looked at him only a second,
then he murmured something about go
ing but it was in reference to the man
and his possible destination. After which
the bedless one turned on his heel and
shambled up the street.

''It is possible that Lieutenant Colo

have been informed that governors who
have no escort of militia will not be
assigned places in the parade. Instead,
they will be given places on the re-
viewing stand.
AS far as l am personally concerned
this suits me better for in that way I
will be able to see all of the parade,
which would be impossible if / were in

Chance For New York to Cheer.
II would like for the New Workers and
the eastern people who know our bat
teries by reputation for the magnifi-
cent work they did in the Philippines,
to have an opportunity of cheering
them. They have shown to the world
that Utah is loyal and the fact should
be impressed upon the nation"
The trip will be especially interesting
to the Utah officers, all of whom en-
joy not only the acquaintance, but the
friendship of the great admiral who
will be so royalty welcomed home at
the nations greatest seaport While
in Manila, Majors Young and Grant
were very close to Admiral Dewey, who
frequently referred in terms of high
est praise to the work of the Utah
boys and their commanders.
It is stated that he watched their
performances with keenest interest and
never lost an opportunity of saying a
kind word for them. The meeting be-
tween the admiral and his friends from
Utah is being looked forward to by
them with much pleasurable anticipa-
ton.
