A GREAT cARTooNIsT.
(Deseret NeWsl


The name of Mast, the cartoonist, is
known throughout the world wherever
newspapers are read, and in the Unit
ed States is as famous as that of any
of the great literary men of the period
There was a striking originality in his
productions. While the persons he por-
trayed were presented with their pc
cullarlties exaggerated, their likenesses
were always distinctly outlined. and
their usual expressions of face and fig
ure were made to appear in such life
like lines that the most outrageous
burlesque accompanying them never
concealed their facial characteristics
The real and the distorted were so
skilfully mingled that one did not de-
stroy the other, and there was so much
fun with the sharpest kind of satire
that the humorous side prevailed while
the intended lessons were not lost
Thomas Mast, with his vigorous carl
catures, did as much as any one man
TO break up the notorious Tweed ring
The doings of that band of political
rulers and spectators were shown up
as much in Nast's cartoons, by the De
cullarities of dress affected by the chief
conspirators. as in the comical define
alton of their personalities. Mast was
small of stature, of nervous tempera-
ment, pleasant in manner and of alert
and acute mind. He has never been
surpassed in the special art to which
he gave expression in the magazines
of his time. The nearest approach to
it that we have seen in the west is
LoYey's work on The Herald. The sud-
den death of Thomas Mast by yellow
fever iii Ecuador, where he held the Of
flee of consul general, will be universal
ly regretted

Earthquake Records.

Professor John Milne, the seismologfst,
read long paper on World-sha king
earthquakes before the Royal Geograph-
zeal society recently. He gave the latest
information which science can furnish
about the phenomena which during the
past year more than ever before have
attracted popular interest.
1t is now known that about 80, 600 earth
quakes occur annually. These are divided
into two grOupS-cOntinental which uSu-
ally disturb the whole globe and local.
which usually have only a radius of a
few miles, The former are the result OF
sudden accelerations in the process of
rock-folding- The latter are settlements
and adjustments along lines of primary
fractures. The relationship of the two
groups IS that of parent and children
important earthquakes seem to prOpa-
gate series of waves through the world
In all directions. The first movement
passed through the diameter of the earth
in about twenty-five minutes These
movements are congressional in charac-
ter. The second phase of the motion.
which forms the principal part of the
seismogram, is made up of larger waves.
Their average period varies from fifteen
TO thirty seconds, but periods of sixty
seconds have been observed. Professor
Milne says he is inclined TO the opinion
that the movement is undulatory in char
acter like an ocean swell, and that il
would be easy TO measure the difference
in time between the arrival of the pre-
liminary tremors and the large waves of
motion.

Chief Paul will never be able to con-

q serious manner. 1t is difficult not to
believe that the gambling house pro-
prietors are notified in advance of

manage-to have some figure-head ready
to be arrested and put up sum of
money for bail which is afterward for

police department would speedily put a
stop to all the gambling that is going
on in this city.

Volunteer Tramp Sang Requiem Mass
philadelphia North AmerieanN


At the anniversary mass, which was
sung Wednesday in memory of the Rev.
Thomas McGlynn, rector of the Immac-
ulate Heart Roman Catholic church. the
members of the choir were amazed when
singing Ohnewald's Mass of Requiem by
the sudden appearance of stranger,

James +. Desmond The fellow, who had
only one arm, said:
Say, mister, is there a chance here for
a fellow TO ring in with the singing?''

The one-armed tramp was not in the
least frustrated He shuffIed over to
Miss Nellie Connarty. the organist, and in
a little better language he stated his
case, saying that he would like to as
sist in the singing.
I've the voice and know the music -
he declared.
The man was allowed to take part. and
the singing of the mass was recon-
menced. Few of the strains had gone out
until it was discovered that the -'volun-
teer singer indeed possessed the voice
and that he knew the music
To one of the members of the choir he
said:

time OF the mass / can't resist the temp
tation to stop in and join the choir"

There are many mines in Utah in which
silver can be mined at profit at 40
cents an ounce. The price is still far
above that figure, and there is no in
lication of an immediate fall. Indeed.
experts believe the bottom has been
reached and. they look for an advance,
! rather than a decline
This faith is justified by the fact that
one of the greatest causes for the de-
probation of silver, heavy selling by
China, has ceased to exist. China is
not dumping the white metal on the
market in such quantities as it did some
time ago. for the reason, probably, that
1t secured enough gold to meet the first
payment on the indemnity TO the pow
ers which must be met Jan. 1. 1903.
The story about the possible demon
citation of silver by Mexico, another
factor in aid of the bears" has been
pretty thoroughly exploded Mexico
has had some tempting propositions
from Old World fnanciers on this sub
ject. but she is not yet ready to aban-
don the silver standard.
The Pyramid falls into a palpable
error in concluding its editorial on the
silver question. 1t says that prosper
ity and industrial activity are possible
in Utah. even though a majority of the
mines may be compelled to suspend
operations. The backbone of Utah's
financial health is the mining industry.
Faralyze that and the entire state is
paralyzed. The agriculturist. the man
ufactureT, the merchant, can find no
market for their goods when the mines
are closed.
True, the whole state might not be
bankrupted by stoppage of mining,
but it would so nearly approach that
condition as to make the term prac-
tically applicable.
