Contract Let for One Of the Biggest
Cuts 10 the West.
MILLION YARDS OF DIRT.
-Four Steam Shovels En- Route TO
Commence work at stockton on
bennington Cut.oR.

After an exhaustive examination Of
the hill near Stockton on the line Of the
bennington cutoff by Resident En-
gineer Ashton and his associates, Gem
eral Manager Bancroft has decided to
abandon the tunnel scheme and In its
place make huge cut through the hill.
The major portion of the dirt to be re-
moved In of a loose gravel formation
which Is not conductive to the build
ing OF tunnel with safety unless II
~ line with timber and concrete This
would mean great expense, consequent
ly Mr.. Bancroft has notified the Utah
Construction company which has the
contract for the entire work TO push
the excavation OF the huge cut at the
earliest possible moment,
CONTRACT sUBLET.
With the idea Of expeditlng matters
the Utah Construction company has
subiet the contract for the cut TO the
johnson company, well-known firm
OF Illinois railroad contractors, at a
figure that viii leave a handsome five
figure margin without their turning
their hand over. The Illinois firm Ia
now loading up -four steam shovels, a
hundred or more dump cars, several
tramway engines and the usual impe-
diamentn that goes TO make up first
class railroad contractors outfit. The
equipment Is expected TO arrive here
within the next few days when II VIII
be rushed down TO Terminus and the
steam shovels will commence on their
nh ~
With the arrival Of these huge NAV
vies" there will be no less than eight
steam shovels at work between Car
field Beach and Doremus, with the
prospect that there will be half dozen
more pressed into service before many
moons. As these steam shovels move
on an average Of 400 cubic yards OF
dirt q day, some idea Of the amount OF
soil that has to be shifted can be ar
rived at.
MILLION CUBIC YARDS.
The Stockton cut will be one of the
largest In the West when completed
and will be over ninety feet deep In
places. II was learned upon Inquiry at
the Engineers Office this morning that
the estimate upon the amount of dirt
10 be moved during the process of max
ing the cut goes over a million cubic
yards.
WORK by ELECTRIC LIGHT.
Within the next few days the Utah
Construction company VIII receive the
dynamos engines and portable electric
light plant ordered. when the steam
shovels on the line southwest of Lake
Point will work night and day. The
Johnson company also proposes 10
work on the big cut in the same man
ner.
The contract on the big cut speci.
fees that the work must be completed
by January 1.

WANTS WOMEN TO PROPOSE.
Pastor of a Missouri Church Thinks
That Cupid Is Neglecting
His Businesa

Cupid should move about faster
than he has been doing in Webster
Groves, Mo. says Rev. Charles L.
Kloss, pastor of the First Congrega-
tional church.
There are nearly 800 members of
the congregation, and last year there
were only about a dozen marriages
among the members. DR.. Kloss is
disposed to blame the women for the
prevailing dullness in nuptial affairs.
He says they are too timid, and that
there is no reason why they should
not do the proposing themselves if
the men continue to be as slow as
they have been.
''The idea seems to have always
been that women are dependent upon
the men," DR.. Kloss says. *'There is
no reason why this opinion should
not be removed. Let them become
mems economic equals, and then they
can do the proposing themselves, in
stead of waiting for the men to come
along and ask them to become their
wives. Right now women do not
usually let men propose to them I'M
til they are ready, and there is no
reason why they should not have and
exercise the same right of proposing
as men,"

ATTACK WAGNER1AN MUSIC.
Miss Margaret O'Hea Says 1t Is Re-
sponsible for Vulgar Rag
time Ditties.

Miss Margaret O'Hea, professor in
the Royal Irish Academy of Music at
London, is authority for the assertion
that Wagner's music is the cause of
the rapid deterioration of popular mu-
steal taste in Britain.
Prof. O'Hea says that few years
ago the sweet strains of Mozart, Ros-
SIM, Donizetti, Beethoven and other
masters Ineligible to the common
mind were loved by the people and
that musical taste was improving.
Then came Wagner, and after him
the deluge. Wagner was played every
where. His Emusic of the future'' was
tamped into the. ears of harmony low
ing Britons. They did not understand
it, and so they took up the vulgar stuff
of the music halls and fed upon it.
Thence followed regular decline in
public taste, until to-day there is moth
ing but artistic depravity abroad in
the land.
The masses, Miss O'Hea says, must
have simple melodies, and if they can
not get Verdi and Mozart they will
take the next easiest thing. So far as
British taste goes, Wagner is still OF
the future.

DOCTOR BUILDS NEW FACE,
DR.. Nichols Sem Performs Delicate
Operation ON Patient at
Chicago Hospital.

A delicate although not altogether
unprecedented operation was per-
formed at the Presbyterian hospital
at Chicago the other day, when DR..
Nicholas Sem restored the face and a
portion of the nose of patient by
building up new features. From indi-
cations given by the patient the
chances are that the operation will
prove successful. A similar one was
performed last winter by DR.. Sem,
but the patient died from blood poison
ing.
In the case just attended to both
cheeks, the nose and eyebrows of the
patient, who was well-to-do farmer,
had been eaten away with eaustic
paste applied as cure for cancer. To
restore the flesh thus destroyed the
cuticle from the forehead was
stretched and pulled down over the
portions of the face that had been eat
en- away.
The operation is as yet incomplete,
as the nose has not been entirely built
up. This operation will be performed
in the near future by DR.. Sem. -.
In speaking Of his operation DR..
Sem said: "What did has been dona
before and successfully. There. is
nothing new or strange about the cage.
The patient operated upon does noti3e-
sire his name to be made public" i

DUMB GIRL SPEAKS.
Flve-Year-O1d Girl Afflicted from
Birth Suddenly Acquires the
Power of Speech.

Mary Purisky, five years of age, after
being dumb from birth, was relieved
of her affection on New Years morn
ing and now can speak. The child's
father is shoemaker. OF his three
children Mary was born dumb and .
son, now six years old, was born both
deaf and dumb. Although unable to
speak, the girl was bright and played
with other children of her age. She
communica ted with them by signs. On
New Years morning one of her play
mates had an orange in her hand when
she met the dumb girl. The afflicted
child suddenly held out her hands for
the orange and said, plainly: "Give
me-" The child addressed was fright
ened and ran back to her mother and
told her that Mary had spoken to her.
The child was brought home, and when
the parents heard her speak they were
overjoyed. The neighbors focked to
the Purisky home when they heard of
the wonderful happening. Since then
! the child has learned about two dozen
words and is rapidly acquiring others.

TO RESTRICT DIVORCES.
The New Code of Law for the District
Of Columbia Goes Into
: Eject.

Radical change in the matter of d.
vorce proceedings is a feature of the
new code of laws for the District of
Columbia, which was passed at the
last session of congress and went
into effect the first of the year. The
new law prohibits the granting of d.
vorce except for infidelity, divorces
no longer being procurable for de-
sertion, drunkenness, cruelty and
other offenses formerly recognized as
valid ground for legal separation.
There is considerable change also
In the practice before justices of the
peace, the city being divided into ten
districts, with one salaried justice in
each district, in place of the former
feed officers, whose locations were
not to any considerable extent gov
'erned by geographical distinctions.
The code is not complete body of
laws for the government of the Dis
trict, the old Maryland statutes, the
common law and the statutes of the
United States applicable to the Dis
trict and acts of congress relating
to the District remaining in, force ex-
-eept where inconsistent with the new
body of laws.

NET IMPORTS OF COFFEE.
AIMED AT HIS OWN SON.
GERS Under Is and Of Small In.
comes Cannot Wed.

Great excitement has been created
by recent royal decree of the min
istry of war of Spain, which forbids
the marriage of army officers who
are not yet Is years old, or do not
enjoy an income at least equal to the
pay of captain, which. in Spain
amounted to $50 pesetas i. month,
nominally worth $50. but, owing to
low rate Of exchanges, worth half
that sum, says the Madrid corre-
spondent Of the New York Herald.
People are strongly criticising the
measure, for, as it is somewhat rare
in Spain that officers have an indie
pendent income, marriages among
military classes will undoubtedly be-
come more difficult, and in conse-
quence immortality will be encour-
aged.
One can hardly understand the
purpose of the decree, but it is
broadly limited that it is nothing but
a legal device employed by Gen.
Weyler to hinder his sons marriage.
The fiancee Of Gen. Weyler's son,
Senorita Consuela de LAM, is said to
be very beautiful. She is related to
the marquises de Zafra and Fevra
Ia Vega, the marquesa de Perina and
Condos de Val and Del Aguila.

AMERICAN S1LVERSM1THS.
Are Preparing to Invade the English
Market with Their .Artis-
tic Wares.

American manufacturers of silver
ware are preparing to invade the Eng
Gsh markets. The originality and ar
tistic finish of the American product
has been recognized in the British Isles
as elsewhere, but without the English
hall mark as guarantee of the purity
of the silver it was impossible to make
any Roadway. One difficulty in the
way was that the hall mark could not
be affixed after the goods were fin
ished, as the tests for purity would
disfigure them.
TO obviate this the manufacturers
made arrangements to ship the silver
ware to England in a partly finished
condition, have the hall mark affixed
and sent back TO the United States for
the final stages of manufacture, after
which it is to be shipped to England
for sale.
Inquiry mas made at the treasury
department whether or. not duty
would be assessed on the goods when
brought back from England, and the
department. has ruled that no duty
will be levied, as the silverware would
not be considered as having been ad-
vanced in manufacture within the
meaning of the law by the afaxing Of
the hall mark. ... e., 80.
