Good Work on Roads.

Visitors from the Elk City coun-
try report that some Of the best
road work ever done in the county
has been done this summer by SUI
pervisor VIM. Storz, better known
as Butcher Bill" We are in
formed that he has practically
made new grade from the 3O-mile
tree to the Elk summit, and also
from Elk City to Red Horse by
way of American river and the Ter
nan diggings, where he has also
made a new grade that is far supc-
rior to the old one. Outside OF
this work Mr.. Storz has had some
Of the worst places in his district
put in permanent repair. A few
years OF this kind Of work, repair
ing the worst places year by year.
and in q short time we would have
good permanent roads which could
be kept up at only fraction Of
the present cost. Some OF our
prairie supervisors could profit by
the example Of the Elk City super.

INVESTORS ARE COMING.
Intend to Put Large Capital
Into Farming Lands.

INV ~ ssius6 S&ss0Os
Among the visitors to Camas
Prairie last week were Carl and
Frank Mittelstadt, L. J. Horton,
20. H. Chace, August aud Louis
Lcereke and Bob Appleby Of Ne
braska, who came here by invita-
ton Of A. F. Parker and with
whom they spent several days look
ing over the country. They are all
men Of large means.and announced
their intention Of returning in a
few weeks to invest in farming
lands. They were surprised to
find such great and growing agri-
cultural country so remote from
railroads. The party were skepti-
cal that such y country existed,
and were very much inclined to
believe that the far-famed Camas
Prairie was q great hoax until they
climbed the hill from Sites and
got into the productive country
where they were able TO see about
them. They are from the best par I
of Nebraska, but Camas Prairie de-
lighted them immensely, and from
conversations had with the gentle
men we feel sure that their visit
will be productive Of much good to
this section. They left Friday to
make . trip to the coast and up
into the Alberta country, after
which they will return here.

THE SEARCH FoR DIR. WEBB.
How the Reporters Found Out That
he Was at Home.


During the exciting DAYS on wall
street last week there was a delegation
OF reporters sent 10 the home of DR.
Seward Webb, $50 Fifth avenue On pre-
senting their cards they were politely but
firmly told by the man at the door that
the doctor was not az home. There was
quite score of reporters on hand at 3
o clock, each with instructions that he
must stay az his post of duty until Dr..
Webb should return, when they were to
let loose their questions upon him. As
lt happened, the reporters were certain
that the master or the house was at
nome, but they could not prove it to their
city editors
tall Englishman came up Fifth ave-
nue. with a yellow dog The TAN Eng
tshman passed the reporters and then
came back. He thought that Il must be
a gathering of milhonaires. most of the
party being in evening dress, and he was
willing to sell the dog. which. he said,
was an irish terrier though It was two
sizes TOO large for that breed. He wanted
only SO for it, including the very nice
collar worn by the dog.
One of the reporters assessed his com
paniOns quarter each. and then struck
bargain with the Englishman. He was
TO insist on presenting the dog 10 DR..
, Webb, saying that it was a present from
]. PierDont Morgan, who loves to give
/ dogs of different breed TO his close
friends.
Half of the money was given to the
Englsnman, ana, with his dog he de-
manded admittance. He was well dressed
and looked the part of rich mans ser

/ the man il he had not made a mistake.
! The Englishman was certain that he was
not in error With the dog he was a6-
mitted, and then there were strange
sounds. The man and his yellow dog

BENEFIT FOR MCCLELLAN.

4 CONSIDERABLE PART Of the
u praise for the unqualified success
Of "The Jolly Musketeer," the perform
ance Of which last evening closed the
Theatre for the season. is due to Pro
lessor John J. Mcclellan, who trained
the singers and afterward had charge
or the production. The success of this
company composed exclusively Of Salt
Lake singers-is a matter Of bounding
pride and congratulation TO the people
OK this city. The organization stands
visible and audible evidence Of the
surprising musical abilities Of the Salt
Lake citizenship.
Tt is evident that the director Of an
institution I'm which so much civic pride
is Involved is deserving of something
more substantial than mere kind words
which "butter no parsnips." In addi-
ton TO the services Professor McClel-
Ian has rendered the Salt Lake public
by his direction Of this local company,
he IS constantly at the beck and call Of
tourists who desire TO hear the mag
nifcent tabernacle organ. That these
visitors should be so amused and en-
tertained is a matter OF public concern;
yet &c is scarcely fair to expect one
man to provide all the amusement and
entertainment, and without some public
manifestation of the service which is
being performed.
The Herald believes that the people
of salt Lake win endorse it's PROPOSE
ton Of a benefit for Mr.. Mcclellan 1t
suggests that the opera company give
another performance of "The Jolly
Musketeer," and that the members OF
the company contribute their sweet
voices free so that the entire proceeds
may go TO Mr.. Mcclellan. The Herald
believes that the public viii turn out
in numbers to make such an entertain
meut a conspicuous success, as an evil
dence of their appreciation Of the ser
vice Professor Mcclellan is performing
for Salt Lake.
