ADJUSTMENTS.

A large audience saw Frank Tame
hill, jn, in "A Young Wife" at The
Grand last night. At the end of the
second act the spectators began to
think that the playwright had dram
atiZed one of Old Sleuth's novels, but
here the play took d turn for the better
The first two acts merely serve to pre-
sent the complication of an ingenious
blot. The play is well written and
aoound5 in dramatic situations Mr.
Tannehill is nominally the star, and his
acting is good, but the central figure
of the drama is the young wife, a part
played by Miss Ethelyn Palmer in an
excellent manner Miss Palmer's acting
was one of the chief features of the
may Her part is that of q young wife
who believes her husband guilty of
murder The complications SO happen
that she alone learns facts which
strongly tend to point to him as the
murderer, while other circumstantial
evidence known TO the world tends to
prove her to be the guilty person.
Rather than tell what she knows she
prefers to save her husband by offer
Ing herself as a sacrifice. Miss Palmer
rises to the many dramatic situations
Of this difficult role with rare taste and
ability. Few actresses of her qualifica-
tons and attachments have been seen
IN Salt Lake except as stars.
Special mention must also be made
Of the acting Of Dora Booth, Ernest
Howard, Harold COhiu, Carl StockdaIe
Edna Dorman and Harry Barker.
The audience was we'll pleased with
both the play and the acting. The
same play viii be presented again to-
night.

NOVEL SURGICAL OPERATION
CN2v York Herald }

(NS- York Herald.)
At a surgical operation performed
yesterday in the lebanon hospital in
Westchester avenue. borough of the
Bronx. the new method of producing
anaesthesia by introducing cocaine or
similar drugs into the spinal cavity was
interestingly applied, and it was wiz
messed by many physicians.
The patient operated on was a man
&C years old. who was suffering from
calculus and an enlargement Of the
prostate gland.
Professor Gouiey, who performed the
operation itself, said that three years
ago he had treated the patient Tor cal

complications, he deemed 1t best TO use
the knife.

operation The patient was brought

gave slight moan, but admitted af-
terward that the pain was not great
Then the syringe was screwed TO the
needle and one grain of eucaine was
injected DR.. Marx said he had once
given up eucaine, but was trying IL
again.
About five minutes was consumed in
making the injection. The patient was
then prepared for the operation. 1t
was twenty minutes before anaesthesia
was produced by the eucaine. and the
surgeons began their work. The opera
ton was long and tedious, and at the
end of an hour the patient showed signs
OF recovering consciousness to pain.
DR.. Marx then inserted the needle a
second time. using cocaine In two
minutes and a half the patient was
completely under its influence, and from
that time until the end Of the operation
evinced no sign OF suffering The sur
geons were we'll satisfied with the re-
suits of the operation. DR.. Marx said
afterward that he should use cocaine
in future operations.
DR.. Marx told the physicians present
that he had treated about fifty cases,
and had never failed to get good an
aesthetic results when the spinal cav
ity was properly entered and the agent
was injected about the spinal cord. The
treatment, he said. had been found par
ticularly valuable in maternity cases
and he was using it in all such cases
in his hospital work.

COAL MINERS STRIKE PROBABLY ENDED

By Able Management They Have Brought
Mine Owners to Terms on Important Mat
tiers And Minor Ones Can be Adjusted by
Arbitration,
SCRANTON, PA, Oct. 12.-Eight
hundred and ~ffty-seven miners, who
hold in thier hands the power to end
or continue the anthracite coal min
ers' strike which has been in prog
ress for more than three weeks, met
in convention here to-day for the
purpose of considering the ten per
cent. net advance in wages offered
by the operators, and ad-
journed until tomorrow with
out taking any action on their
employers proposition. Both of to-
days sessions we're devoted to or
ganizing the convention and to
speeches by many Of the delegates
on the mine owners concessions. It
was not expected that anything
would be done today outside of a
general exchange of views. The con-
ventiOn, after it was permanently
organized, went into secret session,
but it was learned from authorita-
tive sources that nothing of a definite
nature was suggested which would
lead to a solution of what is, to the
the miners, a knOtty problem.
SCRANTON, PA Oct. 13.-The an
thracite coal miners now on strike,
after a two days convention late
this afternoon decided to accept the
ten per cent. net increase in wages
offered by the mine owners provid-
ing they will continue the payment
of the advance until next April, and
will abolish the sliding scale. If the
operators consider the proposition
unacceptable, the miners are willing
to arbitrate the questions at issue.
They also decided to continue the
strike until the operators agree to
the conventions proposition.

NEW YORK SPECIAL FRANCHISE TAX

The operation of the special fran
chise law in New York State for the
first year show that $40, 900 will be
added to the taxable realty values in
the State, an exchange reports, in
addition to the 800, 900, 900 which
these corporations heretofore paid
and must hereafter pay in each year,
the latter amount representing the
assessed value of the property of
these corporations other than special
franchises. The special franchise
valuations are now on all local as
sessment rolls and subject to the To-
cal tax rate, and the addition of these
valuations will relieve property al
ready on the tax rolls to the extent
of about 81, 900, 900 in taxes.

THE BOER WAR.

War in South Africa is practically
at an end. After a year of such
fighting to maintain their indepen-
dence as proves them to be soldiers
of the frst-class and heroes of the
finest mold, the Beers finally have
been compelled to succUmb to supe-
rior numbers and vast financial and
military power, and the embryonic
republics of south Africa are no
more. That all fighting has not
ceased is true, but the guerilla war
fare of depredatOry bands will not
avail anything, and it is believed
that hard-headed Beers, of proven
bal good sense and practical turn of
mind, though the love for his home
and his state have in no wise lessened,
will not stand out against the inevi-
table much longer. 1t is just one
year ago October 10, 1899, to be ex-
act) since President Kruger issued
his ultimatum to Great Britain de-
manding a cessation of the move
ment to surround his territory with
British soldiers and guns, which was
soon followed by actual hOstilities
when the English refused to pay any
attention to the BOer demands. At
Kraaipan siding, a point a few miles
south of Mafeking on the railway, the
Beers met a train of British soldiers,
fired into them and derailed the train.
That was the beginning of the war
which just now is ending. and be-
tween that date and the present the
little republics have lived a lifetime
of sacrifice and loss, the homes Of
the people have besn destroyed, the
lives of many of her best people
have gone out, and with them have
persisted the fondest hopes of a peo-
pie noted for their simplicity and re-
zeal. Emperor Williams de-
mands now being made of China, in
the name of Christianity, seem but
the mouthings of a whited sepulchre
of hypocrisy as we consider how
these Christian people in South
Africa have been murdered at the
Dehest. of self-seeking politics and
3ommerce.-Farmers' Voice.

BELIEVES BRYAN BEATEN.
Barker Predicts McKinley's Election, Be-
cause of Middle. of-the-Road Vote.

Barker Predicts McKinley's Election, Be-
cause of Middle. of the-Road Vote.
OMAHA, NEB., October 12.-While
Wharton Barker, Presidential nom
inee Of the Middle of the-Road Pop
ulists, was here on his return from
Sioux Falls, he said that private adj
vice sent out on Friday from a source
on the inside was that Bryan would
carry South Dakota by 5000, but
that as a matter of fact the Demo-
Gratis figuring on a majority of
1900 as a result of their most accu-
rate estimates.
Mr.. Barker talked freely Of cam
paign affairs and Said he expected to
see Mckinley elected. He said he
vas of the opinion that we're it not
for his own candidacy Bryan would
have a majority in the Electoral Col
lege, but he thought he would poll
enough votes in Nebraska, Indiana
and West Virginia to take them
to Mckinley. He said he regarded
Missouri and Kentucky as doubtful
States for the same reason He de-
MED that the Mid-Road movement
was a Republican adjunct in purpose,
although admitting that it would be
such in effect. He said:
1--WE believe that the ultimate sue
cess of our principles will be has
tened by the election of Mckinley,
for this reason A condition of fnan-
cial and industrial stringency and
distress is certain to result this win
ter regardless of who may be elected.
Nothing can stop it. If Bryan should
be elected, this condition would be
promptly laid down at Bryan's door
and the Republican party would
sweep into power again in 1904. On
the other hand, if Mckinley is cleo
ted it will settle the Republican
party as a party, and the Democratic
party will will also go to pieces, be-
cause it will be impossible to hold it's
various elements together. This
will bring the principles for which
we contend into prominence, and
from the ruins of the two great par
ties of to-day will come the forces to
enable us to put our principles into
effective operation.
II do not believe that Bryan could
be elected even should he carry New
York, because of the losses he will
sustain by reason of the Mid-Road
movement"
When asked as to the strength he
expects to develop at the polls, Mr..
Barker said he would poll SOC, 900,
and possibly 1000, 900 votes. He
said if he polled 200, 900 in Texas and
80, 900 in Georgia, which he thought
possible, his total vote would approx
1000, 900. He figured the vote
of Woolley at $50, 600, and that of
DebS at about the same.
