About the goods he's got to sell
He blows about his furniture.
He says it's the best was ever made
And claims the best of customers
Are tumbling to his trade.
It was on his Hot Blast Ranges,

The angels cooked the mamma
For the Israelites of old.
If enc of his Hot Blast Heaters
Were on the frigid moon.
He thinks she'd soon be hovered
Meath the f1owery wings of June.

Or a half of it is true,
They would melt the SHOWS of Green

And thaw the North Pole through.
They'd discount the Fiery Furnace,
And what's more, I blush to tell,
They would simply raise the mercury
In the Fahrenheits of He'll.

And on the Resurrection morn.

m. the rooms were thronged by a
happy crowd OF church people, and
the occasion took on the form of a
joyous reunion of old and new
friends.
The tables were filed several
times over, but the unexpectedly
large crowd was amply provided for.
Too much praise cannot be given to
the young ladies' who so gracefully
served the tasteful repast.
The tea was one of the most slc-
cessful ever given in connection with
the Auxiliary. and the proceeds Wee
eminently satisfactory.

Seriously Affects the Smelling Indus
try by Destroying Coal Crushers
Salt Lake, Utah, Oct. 27.-Loss es-
timated at 100000 was caused today
by fire in the plant of the Utah Fuel
Co, a Gould corporation, at Sunny
side Utah. The company's great
coal crushers, which supply coal for
coke ovens, were destroyed. As all
the big smelters in the Salt Lake
Valley receive their coke from Sun
nyside, the fire seriously affects the
smelling industry. None of the smelt-
ers have over ten days supply of
coke On hand, while some have not
more than five days supply. Telegra-
phic orders have been sent for sup
plies from eastern companies, but it
is believed that a shutdown of some
smelters cannot he avoided.
