The story of The DEVILS Auction"
will make an interesting bit of history
some day. 1t was originally produced
as an afterpiece in the year 1866. having
then no dialogue whatever. but being
out and out a pantomime. Charles H.
Yale, whose name has since been so
closely linked with the piece. was at
llrst clown in the production, playing
IN Boston. In 1882 Yale got possession
Of the pantoI1ime and wrote the dia-
logue heard today. From that hour it
was a success. It has made a fortune
for Yale, and now, in its twentieth
year as a production. is drawing the
most enormous houses of its career.
The Salt Lake theatre was packed to
lsuffocation last night-the crowd repre-
senting nearly $90O-the occasion being
the return of the Auction" to this
city. The show is better than it has
been in several years. The specialties
are clever. especially the trained dog.
and the ballets are attractive. The
people were pleased all the way
through. The house laughed itself
hoarse over the trick scenery and the
wonderful adventures of Toby and his
companions.
Old as it is, The DEVILS Auctio.
might have played a longer engage
ment than one night.

poor management on the part of Mr..

pany. Mr.. Meakin will remain in Salt

ters Of Mrs Hauerts to her parents,
the point being raised that wife S
evidence could not be used against
q husband in this kind Of a trial.
Monday morning Judge Webber
ruled that the letter written by
Mrs. Hauert to her parents could
be received as evidence. The letter
stated that Hauert came home angry
at both Mrs. Hauert and her sister
on the evening mentioned, and that
he came near breaking her nose in
a row that ensued, At that time he
demanded the ring he gave her atthe
marriage. This she turned over to
him, and said that she was afraid to
live with him any longer.
Mrs. Kiehl was called for the de-
fendant but gave no evidence dam
aging to the plaintiff. The young
est Kiehl daughter stated that she
had not seen any trouble during her
residence at Hauert's.
Smith, the defendent, went on to
the witness stand in his own behalf.
and stated that he acted in good
faith to protect Mrs. Hauert, and for
that reason notified the parents Of
the trouble. "A minister was the
last to testify-he for the plaintiff.
The summing up followed and the
case was given to the jury at $50
yesterday morning.

AN AGED INDIAN AT REST.

On Wednesday evening OF this
week, at the hour of $50 o'clock,
John Wakeman passed away after
several days illness caused by lung
trouble, says the Morton Enterprise.
Wakeman. whose Indian name was
Big Thunder, was more prominent
in war than IN peace. Some say
that be took an active part in the
massacre in the sixties, and others
claim that he was friendly to the
whites. The preponderence OF evi-
dence, however, justifies the first
claim. Deceased was a half brother
to Little Grow, and at one time was
employed by the government in the
mail service. He was educated, In
a measure, and was at various times
entrusted to the discharge Of inn
portant duties. About the time the
Indians were executed in Mankato
he wassin the British Possessions,
and it is said was an unfriendly In
dian. Deceased was said to be 81
years Of age, was we'll and active
up to the time of his illness, and
was well and favorably known here.
A daughter, Mrs. Paul Laurence,
survives him.
