iron in Utah has been raised again.
This time Mineral Point in Cache
county are TO be smelted to test the
value OF the deposits commercially.
The last big cry of iron was raised in
Ogden by MISUNDERSTANDING who
at the time ran Ogden and two news
papers on the side. He is still run
ming the newspapers though Ogden is
recovering. He jumped an from claim
last summer and eyhorted all and sun
dry TO pay thirty cents year or
month-it matters not which, into a
100000" population club. The main
activities Of the club were, however,
confined to the locating of a site for a
smelter for the ores from the jumped
claim. The man and the ore is still
there. So is the club, which Is in a
comatose state, and the smelter has
not arrived yet. However, let us hope
that Cache county has commercial
iron. Weber may have iron, too, but
capital and not hot air is wanted 10

The Logan Tabernacle Choir is re-
joicing over the fact that William
ApMadoc, of Chicago, a noted Welsh
lecturer and singer, has been secured
for an entertainment here Thursday
evening, August Both The Salt Lake
Herald says of ApMadoc: "For the
better part Of two hours Mr. APP.
Madoc, the noted Welsh musician, held
the Assembly Hail audience complete
ly enthralled by the interesting and
instructive entertainment which he
entities "Cambrain Romances-the
Harp HelOdies Of Wales" 1t Is a
vast subject and ApMadoc handles it
as such, His treatment of it is ex-
haustive. He leaves nothing to be
said. Ia his entertaining way he re-
views the musical and historical period
from which his song is taken. Then
he tells the story OF his song, and
finally he sings it. One of his aims
is TO demonstrate that there is melody
in the world-aye, ia Wales about
which we know nothing. Where he
succeeds admirably, should an ordin-
airy man attempt 1t failure world be
the inevitable result. Mr.. ApMadoc
has songs in his collection that were
written in the first century. Songs
of pathos, humor and tragedy, which
are ancient In creation, yet in many
respects reminiscent of the greatest
works OF the masters who lived cen.
turtles later, rolled out into the audi.
forum last night and were applaud
ed with unalloyed Sincerity"
