muSjc and Drama

Phil Margetts. one of the first to ap-
year on the stage of the salt Lake
theatre after it opened something like
forty years ago, was the central fea-
tuTe of the latest performance in the
famous old structure. a noticeable fea-
ture of the testimonial to Mr.. Mar
gets last evening was the presence in
the audience of dozens of those who
enjoyed his acting a generation ago.
Gray heads were everywhere visible.
Not that there were no young per
sons there, but the older men and wo-
men were out in unusual force.
A mixed programme of great merit
was given. Interest naturally cen
tered about Mr.. Margetts himself, who.
as Peter Probity, had the leading part
in the little twO-act drama, THE Chin
ney Corner"
Mr.. Margetts, despite the years that
have passed over him, proved to be
full of life and action Still. and gave
the part a thoroughly intelligent and
satisfying Interpretation. Duncan Nc
AlliSter. who is something of a vet
eTan himself had the part of Solomon
PTObity, 81 years of age. Miss CIO-
mania Pratt made an admira bic ma
iron as Patty PrObity, while Miss Jen-
ME Afford, as Grace Emery, was suf-
fiCientTy sweet to justify, not only
-
Thomas. but all other behOlders, in
falling in love with her Dean Daynes'
work as Charles Chiefly and Harry
HOrSley's character work as Sitter was
good.
A splendid musical programme vas
given prior to the presentation of The
play, beginning with a fine overture
by the Salt Lake Theatre orchestra,
under the direction of Willard Young

Annie Laurie" Fred Graham's tenor
solo, While We Are Side by Side"

HOW TO DISCOVER SPRINGS
Frontiersmen and Indians Learn 0 Great Deal from Natures
 Signs About Them.

There is undoubtedly a practical art of discovering springs. Indians or frOntiersmen can find water in the des- ert when "tenderfoot" cannot Mexi- cans and experienced prospectors can similarly find ore. These arts consist mainly in the recognition of superficial signs which escape the ordinary ob- observer. says Casters Magazine.
 It is not necessary that the operator should consciously note these signs sep arately and reason upon them. No doubt he frequently does so. though he may not give away the secret of his method 10 others. But in many in- stances he recognizes by association and memory the presence of a group of in- dications. great or small. which he has repeatedly found to attend springs or ore deposits.
 This skill, due to habit. is often almost unerring for given limited district. but under new conditions il breaks down Old miners from California or Australia have often made in other regions the most foolish and hopeless attempts to find gold. because they thought this or tha; place looked just like" some other place in which they had mined success fully.
 ! Apart from the magnetic minerals. there is no proof that ore deposits ex- hibit their presence and nature by any attraction or other active force. With ! regard to water. however. there may be an action affecting the temperature and moisture Of the overiyiug surface Even here. however. il seems more like . ly that such effects are manifested visi- ply to a close observer rather than by [ direct affection of his nervous or mus cuiar system The favorife fields for water diyiners are regions in which wa ter is abundant. but not gathered upon given horizons of impeTmeabIe strata [ unaeTIying porous rocks.

ENGLAND HOLDS HER OWN.
Why the Number of Immigrants Here Is Smaller Than from
 Other Nations.

1 From 17S9 to 1903 the entire number of aliens who came to our shores was 2O,65S.677. When this immigration be- gan the United States had population of about 100000, which since then has increased what countries contributed most to this immigration. the answer would promptly be, Germany, Ireland and England. And this would be cor rect, for Germany furnished one-fourth of the immigration, Ireland 3,944 ,269 and England 2,739,937.
 These figures, says the Kansas City reason why the primitive language, cus- toms and laws of the United States have remained comparatively intact. The original 4,000,0O0 colonial Americans practically all spoke English. and they and their descendants have been assist ed by the Irish and English emigrants above mentioned and 3SS,506 Scotch en- igrants. and possibly by 1,050,6S3 Brit ishers from Canada. who all have been racially interested in preserving the pre- dominance of the Anglo-Saxon tongue and its institutions.
 So there have, in fact, been no more than 12,00O,000 aliens to exert their in- fluence against the established order of things. When they arrived they found provision made to prevent any change or disturbance. The government, placed upon a stable foundation, had been so ingeniously planned that as result laws written and transacted in English and that language was the only one gener- ally taught in the public schools. Fur thermore, these 12.000,000 emigrants spoke various tongues, no ore of which was able to compete in numbers with the English-speaking races. Consequent ly the newcomers, whether they inter mingled with the older Americans or at- tempted to segregate themselves, all found 1t necessary eventually to adapt themselves to conditions already exist ing in the land.
 The tendency of the emigrants has al- ways been to locate in old settled parts of the country. This fact is especially noticeable to-day. It Is the American of the original stock who has been the pio- neer and frontiersman. He opened the wildernesses for settlement. and when the emigrants moved slowly on they found that he had established his lan- guage, customs and laws as he went. America is now American for good. The immigration of recent years is not of as desirable class as that of former times, but nevertheless there is not much dan ger that it will exercise bad influences to the extent which is so much feared.

Nest Building Africans.

Travellers who have returned from the heart of Africa and the Australasian continent tell wonderful stories of nest building people who inhabit the wilos of those countries. Tn the bushmen of Australia are. perhaps. the lowest order of men that is known They are % priE- itive that they do not know enough to build even the simplest form of hut for shelter. The nearest they can approach to it is to gather lot of twies and grass and. taking them into thicket or jungle. build nest for a home. The nest is usually built large enough for the fam fly. and if the latter is very numerous. then the nests are of a very large size. Sometimes the foliage above riIl form a natural covering. but there is never any attempt at constructing a prosee- ton from the rain and storms.
