MAscAeNrs HARD LUCK.

4 N EVER IN ALL the history of the
~ United States has distinguished
visitor from abroad been so badly
great Italian composer. One woe has
tread upon another's heels with Mas
cagni ever since he set foot on our
shores. He has been bounded and per-
secuted on one pretext and another un-
til he is nearly crazy.
The climax was reached in Chicago
on Monday when the composers per-
sonal effects were attached for an al
legged debt amounting to $1s4. AS re-
suit, Mascagni has Cancelled all his re-
naming dates and will return to italy
as soon as he can possibly do so. The
great trouble with the man who wrote
"Cavalleria Rusticana7 seems to be his
utter lack of business sagacity.
In the first place he contracted with
an individual who, according to ac-
counts. was irresponsible, for tour of
this country at a stipulated figure, re-
puted to have been well up in the thou
sands Of dollars. The manager failed
TO live UP to his promises, and the re-
suit has been that Maseagni has been
harassed to the last limit of endurance
The Herald has no fault to find with
him for turning his back on our shores.
Of course we do not expect anybody
to stand between the composer and his
| honest debts, but it does seem that ne
has been unnecessarily bullied He
came here, stranger in a strange land,
ignorant of our customs and manners
| and laws He was entitled to all the
courtesies that could have been shown
to any distinguished guest. To do this
| it was not necessary for people to turn
out by thousands to see him direct
| presentations of his operas.
1t is the American citizens right to
| spend his money or refrain from spend
ing it, just as he chooses, but Mascag-
nj, if reasonably courteous attention
had been paid him, would have been
spared many of the humiliations to
which he has been subjected. Our peo-
pie, or many of them, go into Mysteries
over far less worthy objects of admira-
ton than Mascagni. 1t is difficult to
understand why he failed to score a
success.

THE ARREST of the Humberts in
Spain, whittier they had fed from
Paris, recalls one of the most adroit
swindles that has ever startled Europe.
1t also suffices to remind US that
whenever we accumulate a few odd
gold bricks that cannot be disposed of
elsewhere, Paris is the place to mar
ket them. The Humbert scheme was
so transparent that it would seem any
child should have avoided being taken
in by it, and yet the Humberts man
est bankers in Paris.
Their plan was simple. It consisted
in borrowing money ON stocks and
bonds which were supposed to be
locked up in a safe until such time as
court saw fit to release them. Bank
ers were taken to the safe and showed
the packages of bonds. all nicely
sealed and stamped. So long as they
were not opened they were securities
of the most irreproachabIe character.
Anyway the moneyed men were hyp-
Noticed into believing so.
One loan after another was secured
by the Humberts. At last the aggre-
gate amounted to something like TO-
900, 600 of francs, which would be in the
neighborhood of $1,000. 600. The money
was squandered by Mr.. and Mrs. Hum

ing. They had numerous horses and car
riages, they had boxes in the theatres.

and they entertained lavishly.
One day the bubble burst The Hum

The safe was opened and the packages

found to consist of just plain paper, cut
to resemble bonds. The police were
notified and a search that covered
practically every country on the globe
was inaugurated. Detectives, profess
sional and amateur. joined in the case,
tempted by the offer of a handsome
reward.
The search was unavailing. however.
Month after month passed ard the

GEORGE W. THATCHER is dead.
" The inevitable eongueror of US ali
has taken his spirit across the wide sea
that is never dotted by returning sail.
Somewhere. on the other side of the
waters that kiss eternity's sands, the
soul OF this good man is at rest. There
is mourning and heayiness of heart to-
day in the beautiful Cache valley and
in Logan. its capital, for. in Logan and
in Cache valley George w. Thatcher
was loved as few men have been loved.
Nor was the great wealth Of affection
that he attracted TO himself drawn from
the place of his abiding alone. To
some men has been given the trait of
lovableness in marked degree above
their fellows and in the character Of
George W. Thatcher this trait was the
predominant note. kindly, gentle, sym
pathetic, it was a privilege to know
him. as it is a melancholy pleasure TO
speak the truth about him now.
No one but the immediate beRef-
Charles of his goodness viii ever know
how many rough paths he has
smoothed, how many lives he has made
happier. how many homes brighter
This man who is dead was a nodes
man. He was modest to the point of
difidence in his intercourse with those
he could. help. and now that his lips
are sealed forever, It is fitting that
others should speak.
George W. Thatcher was not an old
man, as age is counted now. Born
sixty-two years ago, he was brought,
when but sn infant, to Utah by his
parents and lived here, with but
brief. interval spent in California,
through all his days. His young eyes
saw the state a desert, they closed on
a garden, wrested from an unyielding
nature. He saw and helped, as few
men have helped. in the upbuilding Of
this mountain commonwealth.
DfHgent, earnest. active and progress
sive. George W. Thatcher in youth, in
early manhood and in maturity, was a
citizen beyond reprOach. The times
that tried the souls Of the pioneers
wrought no austerity into his char
ter From poverty he passed into
wealth but fortune meant nothing more
to him than an increased ability to help
his less prosperous neighbors and
friends. He never lost his faith in
human nature; he never let a cloud
darken the sunshine in his spirit.
To his family he has left = name I'M
sullied; to his friends a heritage more
precious than wealth, more enduring
than granite--the recollection OF a life
without blemish, a character without
flaw. And not the least precious
part Of the recollection is the remem-
brance OF Mr.. .Thatcher's fortitude
