THE EASTER BALL.
St. Joseph's Church Sustains its
Reputation at the Annual
Easter Monday Ball.

All those who attended the ball at the
Arnory last night will agree with The
Sentinel that it was one Of the most en-
joyable and best managed affairs Of the
entire season.
The ball was given by the members of
st. Joseph's Catholic church. and was
or Q OF tho most successful efforts Of that
organization, which 10 saying consider
able.
There was 40 unusually largo crowd
in attendance, in fact the hall was filled
almost to its utmost capacity, and had
not the crowd besn exceedingly good
natured there would have boon great
deal Of crowdipg and jostling, but a. it
was there was only laugh when . cou-
pls would be bumped into. and they
would register q mental vow to get it
back at the arst opportunity which they
invariably did.
There was q prize waltz and prize
cake walk, one set OF judges acting in
both contests The judges were j. Il
Ackerman, j. W. Weyer. and 8. g.
Hum.
In the waltz contest there was great
deal Of competition at frst, but the num-
ber was cut down, until there were only
few couples left on the floor. It was .
close contest, but the judges decided In
favor OF Mr.. Pat Clary and Mis- Edith
Richardson.
In the cake walk there we're fewer con-
testants but tho judges found almost a.
much difficulty in awarding decision
a. in tho other contest. The prize was
finally bestowed upon Mr.. Eugene Phil

Salt Lake. April S.-W. d. Bancroft,
vice president and general manager OF
the Oregon Short Line, reached Salt
Lake today after a aying trip to New
York, whittier he had been summoned
by e. q. Hartman. He made the fol-
lowing announcement this evening:
n received my instructions from Mr..
Hartman. He told me to como home
and at once start the Short Line toward
Los Angeles and to build it Just as fast
as possible. There are 100 men lay ing
track in the state Of Nevada tonight and
the Short Line will be running trains
into the city Of Los Angeles just as econ
a. men and muscle can lay the tracks
that far"
Meanwhile @. o. Whittemore. general
counsel of the San Pedro. Los Angeles
and Salt Lake road is Fastening with all
speed to Phoebe, Nevada. to secure an
injunction against the opposing company
to prevent its laying rails on the old
grade awarded Friday to the Utah &
California company, backed by his road.
A bitter railroad war has therefore al.
ready begun.
1--WE claim tho right to the old Union
Pacific grade." said Mr.. Bancroft, land
We are taking possession Of it and will
lay track on it a. fast as We can, no mat
tor what interests try to interfere with
US. Our men were at work.all today and
tho Short Line now extends into the
state OF Nevada. l cannot tell how long
it will take us to reach Los Angeles, but
there will be no delay. We have tho
preliminary surveys OF the Union Pacific
and will mos likely follow them all tho
way through.
"Our surveyors and right-of-way agents
can perform their work while the men
behind are laying track. We will not
stop laying track for single day until
Glover Valley junction is reached. That
is the terminus of the Union Pacific sur.
vsy Of 1890 and is As miles beyond IVA
da. The rest Of tho distance to Los
Angeles will be graded with as much
rapidity A. practicable and track laying
will 60 right on then"
Tho distance between Salt Lake and
Los Angeles 10 approximately 100 miles.
The San Pedro, Los Angeles and Salt
Lake must lay tracks the entife distance.
The Short Line already luns to Mil
ford, Utah, and last week it took up its
option on the Utah i Pacific, running
from Milford to Uvada, on the Utah
Nevada state line. This leaves it about
800 miles to build, including the IS miles
already graded and tunneled. z ven

PUNY CHILDREN
TOO MANY OF THEM DIE.
Their Little Bodies Unable
to Stand the Ordeal of
Development.
WE THINK EVERY MOTHER IN
THIS TOWN SHOULD KNOW
ABOUT vIN0L.
It is the Delicious Tonic We
Advise for Growing
Children.

Is your boy or girl pale and 1istless
Do they act differently from other
children? Do they sleep poorly and
eat poorly? Does your boy avoid the
sports and games of other boys? Does
your girl complain of headache and
find her studies a hardship?
If so, you may make up your mind
they are growing too fast. They need
something to help nature in her great
work of furnishing the necessary ele-
ments for creating flesh and muscle It's
sue, bone structure and rich, pure, red
blood.
They need a tonic in the full sense
of the word and we can tell you what
to get.
1t is Vinol Wine of Cod-Liver Oil. the
great modern RECONSTRUCTION. Children
like it, it is so delicious to the taste, in
spite of the fact that it contains a
highly concentrated extract of the
medicinal principles that are found in
cod-liver oil.
But because the vile-smelling and
tasting grease has been discarded and
all of the other disagreeable features
eliminated, the benefits of Vinol are
easily understood
VinoI acts favorably on the stomach,
creates an appetite and enables the
food that is eaten to do the greatest
possible amount of good.
Following is a letter that bears di-
rectly on this subject:
:. L was all run down and took Vinol.
1t did me so much good and it was SO
pleasant to take that 1 gave it to my
children. They were growing fast and
needed something in the way of a tonic
and / found it to be just the thing for
them SARAH PICKERING, 1892 Fall
River, Mass.
We cordially invite mothers inter-
ested in the welfare of their children,
as well as any one else needing a sure,
safe and delicious tonic, rebuilder and
rejuvenator, to call on us. We will
gladly tell any one all we know about
Vinol and why we so highly endorse 1T.
Inasmuch as we are always ready and
pleased to refund the cost of VinoI to
those who don't find it exactly what we
claim it to be, it will be seen that we
are prepared to substantially endorse
our claims for the excellence of this
marvellous preparation.

THOSE who watch the course of
prices are aware that the trusts are
at it again. Lead, sheet steel. glass,
galvanized iron, wrought iron pipe
are either advanced or else are arbi-
trarily held at exorbitant prices by
the great combinations controlling
their production. and are examples of
the tribute levied upon the industries
and the people of this country by the
trusts, which derive their power to
levy tribute from the protective
duties in our tariff.

APPARENT DECLINE OF BRITISH EN-


PIRE.
England is in comatose state.
The English press has endeavored TO
lend impetus to British efforts viii
exhortations of ''England, Wake Up"
and "Why Does England Slumber?''
but in vain. There are at this time
many things which combine to dis
close the Interesting and not entirely
unexpected fact that England's pres
tige is waning. There are many rea-
sons why this impression should
exist. The utter helplessness and
stupidity of the British mill
tary hosts in battle have been shown
by the manner in which the Beers
have defeated, leased and tainted
them. The vast British armies have
failed to grasp and crush mere
handful of patriotic and courageous
burghers. Boer valor and strategy
have been of such a high standard
that in so clearly outwitting Kitch-
ener and his forces they have made a
laughing stock of British arms. All
the world now ridicules England,
the Ruler of Land and the Seas
1t is Judgment that highlands ty-
honest burghers should cause the
monarchy to suffer, and to her no
patriot can conscientiously extend the
hand of sympathy. All the world
admires the manner in which the
little band of Beers has compelled the
Boosting British to acknowledge that
De Wet is superior in strategy to all
the English officers in South Africa
com bined.
England at present has a host of
troubles. She is fairly hated by many
of the other great powers. France
stands ever ready with the chip on
her shoulder. Germany is not back
ward in casting excavations at the
British and Eugland's conniving has
brought down upon that nation the
disgust of nearly all concerned in the
negotiations for indemnity in Pekin.
The British empire is falling, so say
the prophets and the sages, and her
decline is at hand. Their auguries
are to the effect that Queen Victoria
has but few more years at the most
to dwell among her subjects, and that
not long after she is gone, chaos will
follow, and the dismem berment of the
empire will result. England, though,
has survived many a stormy struggle.
and she may possibly yet tower above
the difficulties which surround her at
present.

supposed to contain faithful chron-

His supporters claim that Quay
lacks but three of the mum Der of votes
necessary to reflect him to the United
States senate from Pennsylvania, and
that if these are not supplied by re-
publicans they will be furnished by
democrats. Six democrats voted for
the boss candidate for speaker of the
Pennsylvania house, and it is declared
that in an emergency they can be de-
pended on to vote for the boss him
self. Assuming that a democratic
