The Clay Clement-Stockwel company
played the Bells to a large and fash
ionabIe audience at the Salt Lake thea
ter last hight. The play is so written
that all the acting, all the dramatic
situations and all the intense emotions
fall to Matthias, the character played
by Mr.. Clement. Mr.. Stockwen takes
the part of Father Walter. an old gos-
sip and the town topper, which ne acts
admirably we'll Mrs. Clement plays
SOzel, a maid of all work. No charac-
ter. except Matthias, has many oppor-
tunities but what little acting there
was by the secondary players gives one
a very favorable impression of the COM
pany. From a brief outline of the story
it may be seen that Matthias is labor
ing under emotions, fears, remorse and
anguish much the same as those which
unbalance the mind of Macbeth
Matthias, an in-keeper, to save himself,
his wife and his little daughter from
poverty, which seems imminent, kills
and robs a Polish Jew who is his guest.
Ever after that he is haunted by the
sound of bells, which the horse of the
Jew carried. He brOodS over his crime,
fears detection, and allows these fears
to furnish motives for his actions. This
is the precise situation in which Mac
beth is placed. The character of Mat
.thias is a difficult one to assume, and
OWING TO the amount Oh dClluS uolS ny
him. must be an eXhauStlng one, yet
Mr. Clement plays this part with great
discernment, skill and fervor through
out. That the audience was Wen
pleased was shown by frequent APP
pIause AS a prelude-or curtain raiser
Mr.. Clement and four others played
''Napoleon's Guard" which affords Mr..
Clement an excellent opportunity to
iuperSonate an old French sOldier-a
member of the old guard-whose mind
turns to the past glorieS of Napoleon.
The Magistrate" will be presented to-
night.
Browns in Town" captivated a
large audience at the Grand last night
Brown makes a great deal of trouble
for others and has some of his own,
but few tears are shed in his behalf
by the audience. The play is witty,
tafOrs laughing from the time the cur
tain rises until it falls. Performances
of equal merit at the prices charged are
rare. No description of the play could
be given by a simple narrative of the
plot and scenes 1t requires more than
a lead pencil and paper to reproduce
the art of the comedian. George Welch,
who takes the part of Dick Preston
(aIias Brown handles the character in
a very commendable manner. George
Elmer made a hit with his limitations
and songs. Miss Jessie Mae Halls sing
ms, was greatly enjoyed and much APP
plauded Miss Fannie Midgley caused
a great deal of laughter and won much
applause by her acting as Primrose,
the cook. In fact there are no poor
actors in the play, all are good; the
music are fine. This show will be here

TEACHERS Up IN ARMS
They Object to Provisions of
Their Contracts.
WANT TERMS MODIFIED
RUMORS OF TROUBLE UNLESS
REQUEST IS GRANTED.

A bevy of pretty school ma'am and
some of the pedagogues of the sterner
sex got together yesterday afternoon
in the city and county building to prime
things so that a winning demand may
be made upon the board of education
for new deal in the matter of the
form of contract which the teachers
are required to sign.
Mr.. Hagar of the High school was
made chairman of the meeting. After
a roll of schools was called the dele
gates representing the teachers ex-
pressed the sentiment of the public
school teachers of this city relating to
the contracts. The unanimous opinion
OF the delegates was to the effect that
they did not want a strike among the
teachers, regarding such a thing as
very disastrous to the schools, but they
did want the clause which in the con-
tract refers to half payment in case
OF prevalence of contagious diseases re
curing the suspension of school SeS-
slons stricken out. Many of them
thought the school board had no SIMS
ter motives in placing in the contract
the clause referring to half payment
Tor teachers in case the schools should
De closed as they were last year be-
cause of smallpox.
Women Wax Warm.
a number of self-possessed young
ma ans wanted a stipulated term of
employment expressed in the contracts.
Numerous pretty young women dele
gates WaXed warm in calling for unity
upon the question. young miss from
the Lowell school read a resolution
from her constituents to the effect that
they wanted the "'entire first proViso
stricken out and in lieu thereof a nine
months salary guaranteed"
Representatives from the Fremont,
Washington and Oquirrh were not go
ing to be controlled any longer by SEN
timent. They had been meek and mod
est long enough. Quiet maidens from
the Twelfth and Sumner were going to
be timid no longer.
After an hour of consideration the
teachers assembled decided to appoint
committee who were instructed to
draft resolutions touching the vital
point of half payment as expressed
in the proposed contracts.
One buXOm young teacher performed
the wonderful parliamentary feat of
making three motions and of speaking
to them all without allowing an op-
pOrtunity for a second, while the chair
man held his breath.
Committee Appointed.
This committee of teachers was in
structed TO confer with the school
board and to request that the teachers
as the party of the second part in the
contract shall have the right to say
what the nature of their contracts shall
be. This committee will ask the school
board and its committee on laws that
the clause which provides for half pay
ment in case school is closed for ten
or more consecutive school days be
stricken out If they will not grant
that request the committee will ask
for contracts similar to those of last
year. In case neither request is grant
ed some trouble is expected, as some
of the pedagogues are headstrong on
the question.

NEW YORK, July 2o.-Owing to the
lateness of the hour at which the news
of the assassination of King Humbert was
received in this city, it was impossible to
see either Consul General Branchi or
Consul Burdese. Baron de Fava, the
Italian ambassador, was at Seabright, N.
J. He was much distressed at receiving
the news, but said to the Associated Press
that he could not give out any statement
until he had been officially notified by
his government.

Here's a Tribune Snap

Just before the democratic convention
the Lewiston Tribune, the democratic
official organ, said that if the policy of
naming United States senator was pur-
sued sit would result in utter defeat of
the party and ought to. If a ticket is to
be nominated OH personal animosties we
would not give snap Of finger for the
chance for success of any nominee on the
ticket"
Well, the policy has been pursued to
finish and the party will be dragged TO
certain defeat as a deadly parallel"
The. nominees ought to feel good over
the opinion of the Tribune in the event
1--WE wouldn't give a snap of a finger
for the chance for success of any nominee
on the ticket" That's just the way the
republicans feel about the democratic

Evidence of Prosecution In

GEORGETOWN, KY, July 28.-The
prosecution in the case of ex- Secretary
of State Powers, charged with being an
accessory in the murder of William Co
bel, concluded its evidence in chief to-
day. The defendant will take the stand
Monday and testify in his own behalf.
Three weeks have been consumed in the
preliminaries attending the selection of a
jury and hearing the evidence that has
been introduced by the prosecution.
Golden resumed the witness stand to-
day and Judge Sims began severe cross
examination. Golden repeated the story
of how he came to be witness. Witness
said he did not tell his brother-in-law,
John Stamper, that he had been offered
$4,000 or that he could have $1,000 in case
of conviction of the parties. He also
denied that he had ever said if he and
Culton could get together they would
convict all of them.
Golden was kept busy for an hour or
more denying that he had made state
ments that are attributed to him, which,
it is supposed, would be introduced by
the defense to impeach his testimony.
On redirect examination Mr.. Golden
said he had been approached by his
brotherin law, John Stamper, who told
him he had talk with Lawyer L. F
Sinclair now one of powerc' attorneys
and that Golden could get 5000 if he
would leave the state and not appear
against Powers. Witness said he refused
to consider the proposition. He gave as
reason for not going back to Knox
county after he had made confession
that his brothers, who lived there, ad
vised him to stay away, as they believed
he would be killed.

Another Theory.

New YORK, July 29.-The World to-
day published statement by Sheridan
P. Reed, ex- consul at Tientsin, in which
he says:
"When the allied relief forces reach
Pekin think they may find the capital
deserted by the court and the envoys
gone. 1t is not unlikely that the EN-
press, and possibly the emperor, have
fed with their court under the escort of
Manchu banner men from Pekin to Sinan
Flu, taking with them the ministers at
least as hostages and leaving the other
foreigners in Pekin to horrible fate. If
the ministers are being held as hostages
and are being removed to the remote in
land city of Sinan Flu, place more diff
cult to reach. it is necessary that the
Chinese should put forth all their fnesse
and cunning to conceal this move until
they are safe across the mountains.
''Snan Flu was a capital of China in
ancient times. 1t is situated on the So
called 'Marcopolo road. The only way
it could be reached would be by way of
the Yang Use from Hankow up the Han
river and Tan river valleys. This would
be the most herculean task. Sinan Flu
is larger and cleaner than Pekin. Like
all Chinese cities it is massiveiy walled. .

TROY, July 3o.-(Special to the TELL
ER THE forest fire is raging fiercely
near Collins. 1t is beyond possible con-
troll. The continued dry weather in
creases the danger to the farms of settlers
on the state timber land. 1t could have
been easily extinguished any time with
in the past three weeks. Dangerous pro-
portions were assumed about today. c.
b. Steunenbeig, the state representative
was on the ground last week and he
could have easily extinguished the fire
but he refused to engage the settlers
whom he dislikes for political reasons. He
said the settlers should work for nothing
if they worked at all. He went out to
Moscow and Lewiston on pretention of
securing help. Now, when his help ar
rlves, the FIRE has spread till it cannot be
controlled. 1t burns everything in its
course. The timber is complete loss in
its course and the settlers will loose
heavily. 1t will burn till the rains come
now in spite of human effort The people
are very indignant over the action of the
state agents neglect to which this great
loss is directly chargable.

leaders i'll a recent interview said: "The
Mormons who are migrating TO Wyoming
are not poor people. There is not a
member of the new colony who has less
than II 900, and many are worth much
more. They represent the best class of
Mormons They will prove, as their
fathers have, great colonizers. Frugal
of exemplary habits and good morals
they will, feel sure, convert the Big
Horn basin into one of the garden spots
of America. We have 2ooo scrapers at
Fort Bridger, ready to begin work on the
great irrigation ditch. This will be
thirty miles long, twenty-five feet wide
at the top, fifteen feet wide at the bottom,
with depth of five feet. When finished
1t will irrigate 20, 900 acres of lard. 1t
will cost about $4,000. Although our
present contract with Wyoming includes
only 20, 900 acres of land, it is our desire
to obtain a great deal more. On the
north bank of the Shoshone is a vast
tableland of about 100 900. We hope to
irrigate and develop this land, too The

tension into the Big Horn basin from

Declared Unconstitutional.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 28 The SUI
preme court of California has declared
that the Stratton law which provides for
registration for primary elections is I'M
constitutional. The unconstitutionality
is affirmed on two grounds. One is that
the legislature exceeded its jurisdiction
in seeking to eliminate parties that cast
less than three per cent of the total vote,
The other is that the legislature can not
interfere with the internal regulation ol
political parties.

peating and strengthening these stories
up to the rapidly approaching moment
when the whole truth must be disclosed
by other agencies, it appeared upon
careful consideration of the reports that
there really was little more ground for
hope as to the safety of Mr.. Conger and
his colleagues at Pekin today than there
was yesterday.
The depressing fact is always i'll mind
that the Chinese authorities by their
own statements are able to communicate
with the legations but, for some myster-
ious reason, do not permit these unfor-
tunates to communicate with their own
governments. Minister Wu's explana-
ton of this-that the Chinese methods
are different from our OWNS scarcely
sufficient for the authorities here. The
minister, however, is honestly trying TO
get a further communication through
from Mr. Conger and it may be that sue
cess in all this undertaking will afford
him brilliant vindication At least he
shows a wonderful lot of confidence in
the fate of the legations and manages to
impress this in degree upon the officers
tact.
There is nothing Of interest from China
respecting the military or naval forces
there The war officials now calculate
that General Chaffee, with his troops op
the Grant, will arrive on the Taku this
evening, though it may be several days
before his report of the fact can reach the
department. The irregular and unsatis-
factory character of the present system of
communication between Taku and the
cable Office has been taken into account
by the war department, and it is said that
one of Chaffee's first acts on taking COM
rnand of the United States forces ashore
at Taku and Tientsin will be to establish
line of rapid boats running from Tient-
sin to Shanghai or Nagaski.
While the positive statement is made
that it is not the present intention to
send any more troops from Manila to
China, which made it imperative to have
additional troops, they would be drawn
from the Philippines for temporary duty
at least. Some time ago General Nc
Arthur was advised by Secretary Root to
maintain sufficient transports to carry
supplies between Manila and Taku and
these thus would be available. for emer-
gency troops. The Pennsylvania, Indi-
ana and Sumner, when the latter arrives
at Manila, will probably be held for serv-
ice between Manila and Taku and are
available for the contingency, but the de-
partment does not expect it to arise.
