prOyement is Over $4,000.

There was an irnpQ(tpnt meeting this
morning OF the speNJAl committee APP
pointed by the execGl we committee of
the Utah Light q RMlway company,
to consider the mattvN Of removing the
streetcar tracks from east South Tenn
pie street, IN respQCse to request
from the board Of pG&lic works asking
the company to king v indicate to the
board what It's policy md desires might
be in this connectlGN The board is
meeting this aftermath, to discuss the
proposed permanent improvements OF
east South Temple Atreet. and II Is
rather necessary thai the board should
have definite idea u what action the
Light & Railway conAahy propose TAX
ing IN the question " track changes
there.
The special committee consisted of
Vice President WelN Director w p,
Read ana Attorney e Grand Young,
who carefully considered the various
points under controyvNsy A prominent
feature was the disadvantage of oper-
ating both the First street and South
Temple street lines when parallel each
other so closely as 70 Qetract from each
others profitable opJNation. The sug-
gestion that all traQfs east OF Eagle
Gate be abandoned Vas taken UP. But
then 1t was made Egldent that this
would send the Thrd street, Sixth
street and First stNeet lines all over
First street hill ans through Eagle
Gate, causing such o Congestion OF traf-
iic at that point as "a make 1t regu-
lar Dead mans CONFER to say moth
ing of the heavy trNel up and down
First street hill. TheT there was pro-
position 10 give IN the First street
line and extend the Third street line
through to V streep and connect at
that point with the Viper Fort Douglas
line, But while this ma other changes
on the bench lines WNre considered, no
decided action was taken beyond the
final decision of tho committee to
recommend to the Executive committee
that the east South Temple street line
be not abandoned, Ana the board OF
public works was pptiAed Of this ac-
ton.
This means that ne Light Rail-
way company will expent $4,000 or

Coins Which Had Their Day.

Recent mention of the disappearance of
the $3.50 god piece from circulation and
the premium this coin commands as a
curlO have set many to rummaging in
old pOcketbooks and the bottoms of cash
boxes and drawers in search Of odd or
out of date coins. Some have found a
$3.50 piece but not many. The So piece,
once quite common. but always sort
of curiosity, is oftener found, and many
have specimens of the little gold coius
representing % cents and 80 cents each,
which were not minted by the govern
ment, and probably have not so much
gold in them as they represent They
used to pass as coin. but We're never in
general circulation, being so easily lost
that they soon became scarce. One Of
the handsomest coin relics seen is a $40
gold piece bearing the mint stamp Of
1899. 1t is larger than the present $40
gold piece. The owner has it hung on a
band and wears it as a charm on his
watchchain. The owner says he has re-
fused an offer of $3.50 for this relic The
old octagonal $50 pieces were quite com
mon in California in early days. when
gold dust was largely used as circnlat-
ing medium. They were made of pure
gold, and. while they had not the ele-
CANT finish of the gold coins minted by
the government in those days, many still
remember them as the handsomest coin
they ever saw. Many people now would
consider them handsome ON account Of
the $50 in them.-Portland Oregonian.

THE EVENING GROSBEAK.
A Pretty Little Bird That Visits Pacific
Coast Cities in Severe Winters.

A flock Of evening grosbeaks, the pref
ty little birds which usually visit this
city during the winter, arrived here Il
few days ago. They have been fitting
about and feeding ON the seeds of the
locust trees, the pods of which still cling
to the branches, and pecking at the
stems from which the seeds of the
naples have fallen, evidently finding
something eatable there.
These birds did not visit the city last
winter. it was supposed on account of
the season not being severe in the noun
tains and forests, where they have their
haunts. There are several species of
grosbeaks scattered over North America,
from the far north away into Mexico.
They derive the name from the large
stout bill which is characteristic OF the
whole family. The evening grosbeak is
the only species seen here. tlocks OF
them are often seen in the pine woods
on the Cascades and Blue mountains as
late as May, being on their way from
the south to their summer hauntS III
the far countries of the north. They
are seen at different times in Wisconsin
and as far east as the New England
states.
They are supposed to visit this city
when the snow gets unusually deep in
the mountains, but their movements APP
pear to be caprciouS. The blue, pine
and rose-brea sted species of the grOs-
beak are of more snowy plumage than
the evening grosbeak, which is of modest
colors, but still is a beautiful bird. be
ing. of dusky olive color shading to
yel1owish on the rump; the forehead, q
line over the eyes and under tail coverts
yellow; crown, wings and tail black; bill
greenish yellow, conspicuously large. In
this species the female differs but slight
ly from the male, but is easily dis
tinguishable. In some of the other
species the males are gaudy with red
blue and white markings. During their
visits here they appear very tame and
unsuspicious, and their only note while
feeding consists of single rather
screaming call. In the mating season
the male has warbling whistle not SO
pretty as the robins song.-Portland

There is no better way to bleach them in

Toned indigo bag, which costs only few

Silk handkerchiefs should be soaked for
a short time in prepared lather or
boiled soap and warm water. They should
then be squeezed out with the hands and
rinsed in cold water, to which two table
spoonfuls Of alcohol are added to every
quart, after which they should be
squeezed as dry as possible, but not
wrung. Finally, they should be laid in
cotton, rolled up and ironed as soon as
possible on the wrong side, with a cloth
between the iron and the silk.-New York
