IBSEN'S PHILOSOPHY.

Salt Lake theater-goers are at prea-
Ont treated to a highly artistic presen-
tatlon of one Of the harshest and most
rasping OF lbsens society plays. stu
dents Of the great aster.dramatst of
the nineteenth century generally d.
vide his works into three periods. 70
the first belong such romantic plays
as peer Gynt," Brand" THE Feast
at solhaug,' and some others. Then
comes a period OF historical plays, in
Guiding such as Emperor and Gall
lean" "The Pretenders" "Thc Vlk-
ings at Helgeland" and Lady niger
OF Ostraat." The last period Is filled
in with society" plays, such as He'd
da Gabler, Dolls House." and
Ghosts" In these he embodles with
more or less clearness his view Of life.
He lays the ak TO the root OF nearly
all conventional ideals--like John the
BaptIst-but he knows no Lamb OF
God" to whom he can point the
mnltltudes he has made to smart
under the lash of reproach. He depicts
man and woman as The sum total OF
propensitles inherited from ancestors,
but he describes no redemption from
the power OF evil he suggests none,
except poison. He'pants sin ana sim
ners, real as nature and standing cut
against a black background of despair,
Not ray OF light from Calvary is
permitted TO penetrate the darkness.
SIN, the object Of such masterpieces is
not necessarily lost, Society needs to
be reminded of It's rottenness, hyproc-
rIsy and utter helpnessness without the
divine plan Of salvation, and few have
succeeded, in our age, TO hold the
mirror more steadily before It, than Id.

Herring Catch.
BUSINESS NOW LOOKING UP

Both Washington and Alexandria are
now beginning the fishing season Of
1904. and they are not wanting those
who foresee a season akin "a the best
known on the Potomac. Some declare
that this viii be the worst season Of
many years. Fishermen WHO are not
prophets. however, expect tie season to
follow the usual course OF the past ten
years.
The fish wharves OF both cities at
tract much more attention than for
merly. for at one time no charge was
made for the landing OF fish in Wash
ington. and no place was dxed Tor the
purpose. much Of the fish being landed
~ the foot Of NJ Street. Where the ferry
wharf now stands. and IL AlexandrIa
in those days a multitude OF fish came.
but the fish wharf did not command the
rates that it acquired in the ffties.
Principal Shad Market.
OF late years washington has become
the principal shad mar1eN OF the Po-
tonac. while the larger PORTION OF the
behring's are landed at Alexandria. The
marketing Of the shad is always easy,
and at high prices. even for those
splendid and tOOthsome FISH. while her
ring, especially since the plantation
system mas ceased IN MS nelEHDoI-
hood. have had less demand. and even
with the larger increased catch have
been sold at low prices. going down
sometimes as low 20 cents per thousand.
II seems singular that these fish
sometimes sell at wholesale at cents
per hundred IN the height Of the sea-
son. and win IN a few months after

lucrative opening may evidently be
found. and the opening Of ar unusually

Large checks were received in the hope ot securing some of this extra stock.
 The talk of a tight money market and of the fact that interest in the Bisbee stocks had apparently deciine6 within the past few months had led many to believe that some difficulty might be experienced in handling the Notation of the Calumet & Pittsburg. The money came in from the stock- holders faster than supposed. and the fact that half million was put up at a comparatively short notice shows conclusively that the stockholders have plenty of faith in the future of the property and that they have pien- ty of cash to back up the faith.
