MR.. HEINER's REPORT.

THE BIENNIAL REPORT of Mo
roni Heiner. state dairy and food
commissioner. is decidedly disquieting.
Mr.. Heiner declares that a large pro-
portion of the coffee used in the state
is adulterated in various ways and that
IS per cent of the spices are impure.
The latter are adulterated with pep
per shells, dirt, corn meal, buckwheat,
rice and other materials calculated to
cause us to stop wondering why the
ginger bread of today doesn't taste like
''the kind mother used to make"
Mr.. Heiner's report, besides being dis
quoting, is entirely inadequate. It is
small comfort to the people of Utah
to know that they are being swindled
by the sellers of coffee and spices. un-
less some method of remedying the evil
is pointed out. This Mr.. Heiner fails
to do. We believe the state law pro-
hibiting the sale of other impure food
products APPLIES also to coffee and
spices. If the authorizations are car
ried on to the extent he indicates, why
hasn't he taken steps to put a stop
to the practice?
Surely, the man who sells .chicory
for coffee and bran under the name of
pepper can be reached as well as the
man who doctors" his milk and his
butter with formaldehyde, or who sells
oleomargarine with a Pure Dairy
Butter" brand on it. If the present
law is not sufficiently broad to reach
the matters complained of by the com
missioner. he should suggest new laws.
instead, he seems TO have contented
himself with a proposition to increase
MS own salary, to create new office
and to compel dealers to mark reno
Vated butter as such, although he ad-
mits that the butter now on the mar
ket is exceptionally pure.
The reports reference to the in
crease in the consumption of coffee in
Utah is interesting. Twelve pounds per
capita is a good deal in a state where
a large proportion of the population
doesn't touch coffee at all. If the fig
ures could be- narrowed down to the
actual users Of coffee we believe the
per capita consumption would be great
~ increased.

THE IRONY OF FATE.

late PLAYS IRONICAL pranlxs Oft
times, but the tickle jade has rarely
been guilty of a grimmer play than
that Of which Samuel King of Eureka
was made a victim on Tuesday even
ing. Mr.. King was one of the Utah
boys who responded to the call for vol
unteers. He Joined battery B and
served with credit through the hostiH-
ties with Spain in the Philippines, and
later during the Filipino insurrection.
Bullets often whistled around him, dis
ease menaced him for days and weeks
and months, but he came home sound
in mind and member.
Tuesday Mr.. King came to Salt Lake
to attend the funeral of a friend. This
sad duty performed, he went to the
station to board his homebound train.
While attempting to swing himself I'D
on the steps of a coach he failed to see
another train approaching and was
struck in such a manner as to crush
one Of his legs, necessitating amputa-
ton below the knee.
So, surrounded by friends, in a peace

King is called upon, by the merest mis-
chance. to pass the balance of his davs

have the sympathy of hundreds Of

UNITED STATES MlMTs.

THE ANNUAL REPORT of George
L E. Roberts, director of the United
States minis, certainly makes it ap-
pear that every man, woman and child
in the country ought to have at least a
small piece of money. During the year
covered by the report the minis turned
out 191. 49, sos pieces of metallic money.
This includes gold, silver, nickel and
copper coins, and the aggregate value
was $94, 536, 67S, a decrease Of $40, 000, 600,
in round numbers, as compared with
the preceding year.
This does not indicate that the minis
have been idle. On the contrary, they
have worked at their full capacity, but
the falling off in value is accounted for
by the demand for smaller coins. There
is more gold in the treasury of the
United States than any nation has ever
boarded. The total is upward of $500,
100000, or something like 81 per capita.
The boarding Of this vast amount of
gold does not mean that it has been
retired from circulation. If that were
true the country would be in the throes
of d great financial panic. The gold
notes issued against it, this form of
money being so much more convenient
fer all purposes.
The minis earned the government a
handsome revenue during the year dis
cussed by Mr.. Roberts. In seigniorage
or toll. the earnings on copper cents
and on nickels was close to 81, 900, OO0
and on other coins the seigniorage yield
ed revenue of more than 81, 900, 900.
The act of March IA, 1900, limits sub
sidiary coinage so that no more will be
issued from the minis Mr. Roberts
believes that the act should be amend
ed so as TO permit this coinage to con-
tinue in proportion to the demands of
commerce.
Some hope for silver is held out in
the announcement that the present
coinage of 100000 silver dollars every
month must soon De stopped because
the supply of bullion is about exhaust
ed If it is to be continued more bull
lion must be purchased, and the effect
may be to stimulate the price of silver.
1t is expected that the new mint at
Denver VIII be thrown open before
many months and that Colorado bull
lion, which has heretofore been sent to
eastern minis or to San Francisco, will
be coined, in Denver. This will save the
producers of bullion q considerable
amount in carrying charges. Utah's
bullion will also be sent to Denver. so
that the miners Of this state will profit
by that mint as well as the Colorado
miners.
Director Roberts recommends that
when the Denver mint is ready for bus
mess, the old New Orleans mint be dis
continued as a mint and used simply as
a government assay office.

The audience present cared more for
music than for scenic pomp, and il
manifested its appreciation Of the num-
Ders with applause which must have
been entirely satisfying to the artists
and the chorus. In one or two num-
bers the effectiveness would not have
been marred if the soloists had incor-

With one or two exceptions, the en-
tire cast and chorus of The Telephone
Girl which held the boards at the
Grand theatre yesterday, matinee and
night, was a strong and breezy one,
and full of hard work Both audi
ences were large and appreciative.
The eccentric role of Hans Nix was
thoroughly interpreted by Joseph
Kane, who made such a hit as the
polite lunatic in 1.-The Belle Of New
York. company. The role requires
more than the ordinary comedian for
conception touch of serio-comic
humor-a bubbling up of the ridiculous
side of life. with a mind open to &c
centricity only in acting-with all of
which Mr. Kane is richly endowed.
George Elmer as the butler, Saunders,
was good. His mimicry of growing
cocks, barking dogs in a fight, and his
whistling imitation of birds of song,
as speciality. was one of the best
ever listened to. He was recalled sew
eral times.
The musical work of Arthur Conrad
as Snuff1es, and Miss Mamie Keogh as
Toots. the lunch counter girl, was
above the usual order. The "Pinky,
Panky, Poo" and "And the Bell Went
Ting a-ling," are of the kind that the
boys will whistle on the streets.
1.-THE Telephone Girl" is a farce pure
and simple. and the suggestions of the
playwright on the indifference of the
telephone girl are quite unique and
taking.
The piece win be seen at the Grand
until Saturday night, including the
usual Saturday matinee.
