GOOD OLD Conference Time

They come in a-flyin',

Up and down the line.

In Pursuit of KNOWLEDGE.

Thirty years had passed since the
old mans last previous visit to Salt
Lake, according to d bystander who
professed to know him. Small and
gray haired, with an Old-fashiOned
carpet bag in his hand. he alighted
from a Salt Lake route train the other
evening and walked out in the street
Attracted by its putting he turned and
beheld the first automobile he had ever
seen As the old man moved closer to
inspect the thing it began to move
slowly ahead, gradually increasing its
speed. For a few yards he~kept pace
with it by walking rapidly. Then as
the machine moved faster and faster
the old man broke into a trot and at
length into a wild run. For two Salt
Lake blocks he chased madIy after
the putting machine, waving his carpet
bag and shouting. Then his breath left
him and he sat down to recover.
well, what was the matter? Did
he think it was a street carp inquired
somebody.
He didn't know what the h il
was, but he was trying to find out, -

Tamma1y Legislators for Cheap
Gas, Says Senator Fra1oIey.

Senator Frawley. a personal friend of Charles
F. Murphy, said last night that the Tammany
members of the legislature would vote for an
S0-eent gas bill If they saw no chance of passing
Senator Fitzgerald's bill. reducing the price to
20 cents

ARE for cheaper gas for the people of this city
If it is possible to get it by passing bill. We
would prefer the 70-cent bill, but If we can't
get it, we will vote. finally for an S0-cent bill
Personally I believe that the fixing of low rate
will not have much effect in bringing down the
price. The companies. doubtless. will find
way of making the meters run faster, and the
bills will be about usual. One of the labor
leaders at Albany suggested that there be sta
tons around the city where public meters would
show the pressure on the mains and that a bill
be passed regulating the pressure. With public
meters so that every man could see what the
pressure is, or ought to be, the individual gas
user would be in much better position to fight
an exorbtant gas bill than he is at present.
Speaking Of his sparring bill, Mr.. Frawley
said:
Some people seem to think that this will
legalize sparring exhibitions by professionals.
That is mistake. It limits the sparrers to
amateurs and they can spar only four rounds"

DOUBLE DECK SUBWAY.
J. ". Reno Says 1t Would Relieve
Danger TO Faults Near By.

Among other schemes submitted the Rapid
Transit Commission for subway system in Broad
way is from Jesse w. Reno. who says that ms
plan for double deck structure will avoid the Cd
Jections raised by property owners who fear that
a four-track system will disturb the vaults along
the busiest thoroughfare in the city.
Mr.. Reno first presented his plan to the RAPID
Transit Commission in 1884, and in the years since
he has been making improvements in it. The
double deck system is regarded by him as the only
one feasible from an engineering standpoint for
Broadway and Lexington-ave., since it does not en-
croach on private property and provides for nonn-
interruption of traffic and business during con-
struction.
Mr.. Reno said yesterday:
The distance of the double deck tunnel walls from
the building foundations precludes the possibility q

essential features of my plan. damage to the
buildings would add largely to the cost OF construc-

although the galleries are not essential to its con-

and platforms are easily accessible and ornamental.
The Reno railroad will not require the estimated
outlay Of $12.000000 for condemnation of sidewalk
