The Trials Of Women.

The homes of this country are filled
with women whose trials utterly de-
stroy the joys Of existence. They are
the victims of female disorders and they
do not get relief, and they are forced to
drag through the weary years without
the hope of better days, All such should
be advised to use few bottles of

seeds of JOY in ioyless minds, whose
fruition is the blooms OF health on the
cheek of the perfect woman, to whom

Thousands of women all over this land
have testified to the truthfulness of this
assertion.

here before. but not since her debut
upon the stage in light opera. She
has just returned from successful
tour, and wherever she appeared she
has attracted favOra bic attention She
'catne home for a short rest and con-
scented TO sing only after She learned
of the interests at stake. Charles Kent,
the dramatic baritone, who has OF
fered his services, is in himself a
drawing card and is too we'll known
and too big a favOrite to make COM
nent necessary in his case.
Another big attraction is Professor
Thomas Radcliffe, the organist, who
played at the Worlds fair in Chicago
and who has appeared in various cities
on the other side of the water. He IS
a member Of the American Guild OF
Organists, which in itself is a high teS-
timOnial TO his standing and accom-
plishments. There never has been a
chance to hear a band and the taber-
nacle organ together. Held's band viii
be heard with the organ tonight anu
win furnish several OF the selections
Professor J. J. Mcclellan is on the pro-
gramme and viii play one of his best
selections. Another artist in whom
much interest centers is the young viz
tuOsO. Arthur Petersen, who, though
only 10 years of age, has already at
tracted attention owing to his accom-
Dlishments on the violin. The Euterpe
uuartette of women and the Imperial
Male quartette with Held's Military
band and the tabernacle choir, Will
complete one Of the strongest musical
programmes attempted in this city.

SHOOTING AT MACKAY
Big Spree Wound Up at Road
House and the Tragedy
Followed.
Especial to The Herald.l

Mackay, Ida, May 10.-N- E jenkins,
one OF the Oldest employees Of the White
Knob Copper company. was shot early
this morning by Harry Groves, the pro-
pTietOT of the North Mackay road
house, a notorious place, about a mile
from town. The bullet entered the
right arm below the elbow breaking
the bone and entering his nip. The
police and d physician were summoned
Immediately. but before they arrived II
was feared the victim would die from
loss OF blood Groves was placed I'M
der arrest, but no complaint has as yet
been filed, and il is thought none
viii be.
The cause of the shooting was the
elimination Of a big spree. in which
several others were taking part. Much
bad blood has existed between Groves
and different ones who were present
this morning. and trouble has been
feared for some time. 1t is said Jen-
kins had fired a couple of shots through
the ceiling while eating supper, and
Groves had warned him that this kind
of work would not be permitted. as the
upstairs was occupied. Words fol-
lowed and the shot was fired
Jenkins was brought 10 town this
morning and is now resting somewhat
quietly at the Pacific house If blood
poisoning or any other complications
do not appear. there is every reason TO
expect that jenkins viii recover.

TT IS not often that an eiab-
crate and diversified programme
Of music can be enjoyed at
one concert. like the one that is to
be given al the tabernacle this even
ing for the schools. Under ordinary
circumstances such programme could
scarcely be presented Tor the price.
The concert was arranged by the Com
mercial club TO save the public schools
from being closed. This fact alone Is
having the effect Of attracting hundreds
OF people who are interested in educa-
ton and educational institutions.
As a musical attraction it ought 10
prove alluring enough TO fill the tab
ernacIe even if the educational object
in giving the concert did not exist.
One of the singers upon the pro-
gramme in whom interest centers at
this time is Miss Emma Ramsey. She
has only recently returned from EH-
rope. where the critics of Berlin and
Paris said she was without equal as a
dramatic soprano. 1t is not probable
that the salt Lake public will have an
other opportunity TO hear her at d
