Nero regarded himself as a person of
sentiment, and it is quite usual for a
comedian TO harbor the notion that his

Mr.. S. Kronberg, the representative

musical organization in the world, is
in Salt Lake to arrange for a perform
ance in this city during the first week
of December. The company viii then
be en- route from San Francisco east
and Will break the long jump from the
coast by playing here and at Denver
before going to Kansas City.
Mr.. KrOnberg has not yet decided
whether the performance will be given
in the Theatre or in the Tabernacle,
but it is more probable that the latter
will be selected, as greater receipts are
possible from it with a lower charge
for admission than can be derived from
a Theatre engagement, owing to the
Tabernacle's large seating capacity
Mr.. Kronberg says the performance
must net $4,000 in order to prevent a
loss to Mr.. Grau, who owns the Metro
politan company. Mr.. Grau was ca
bled at Paris yesterday and until a
reply is received from him no final de-
cision will e made.
