Time.

Be Approved by the
Taxpayers.

There will be no special session OF

were the only members Of the delega-
cation to call on the Governor per-
sopally, and their stay in the executive
chamber was brief, The main issue
presented TO the Governor was that the
question of duplication can be adjusted
without constitutional amendment, and
that the State is able to support both
institutions,
Gov. Cutler stated, after announcing
to the press that special session would
not be called. that tho petition handed
in today had In no wise affected the
decision, as he had already determined
on the action to be taken before he re-
ceived notice that the petition would
be fled
The Governor stated that he realized
that there is a great diversity of opin-
ion on the subject Of consolidation, but
he felt that the decision to not call n
special session OF the Legislature would
meet with the approval of the majority
OF the taxpayers of the State.

MAN FROM MANT|
WANTS HIS HORSES
Took Tip From Salt Lake
Hypnotist, but 1t Didn't
Work.

Stephen T.. Voorhees,, a recent arrival
from Manti missed couple Of horses
from his Salt Lake corral Sunday morn
ing and has since that time haunted
the police, the sheriff and all hia depu-
ties. whom he has commanded to run
down and restore him his lost, straycd
or stolen team, Al efforts TO find a
trace of them have, up to the present
time, proved unavaillng
Monday afternoon Voorhees, ran afoul
of steerer for hypnotic fakir on
Second South street, and was promptly
taken into camp. The hypnotist as
founded Mr.. Voorhees, by telling him all
about his past life and wound up by
informing him that his missing horses
could be found III pasture about five
miles southeast of the city.
The Manti man hurried to police
headquarters and insisted that Mounted
Policeman Jim Taylor accompany HIM
to the far-away pasture and recover his
wandering steeds Jim at first de-
murrcd, but 1T was no use. Voorhees,
insisted that, as the hypnotic man had
been unfailing in his description of the
minutcst details Of his past life, ho
must be infalliblc in the location of
his cquincs. Taylor finally yielded, and
the two spent the greater portion of
the day securing the country southeast
of the city. No pastures or grazing
grounds or the section escaped tho vigi-
liant Taylor, but the whereabouts of the
Voorhees, horses is as much a mystery
as ever. The hypnotic man was wrong
for once, and even the cTedulous man
from Manti is willing to admit it.

THURSDAY IS CIRCUS DAY
There Will Be the Usual Big Display
and Seductive Smile,

Thursday next Will be exhibition day
for Forepaugh- Sells circus. Thursday the
rare, unique and wonderful things that
have been promised on paper VIII become
a reality. The airy riders who in dia
phanous skirts, have been pirouetting on
the expansive backs OF tremendously
speeding circus horses-on the bill boards
will be seen In all the gorgeousness of
tulle and seductive smile; the elephants
Will copy their pictured acts Of comedy
and go them one better. Capt. Webb's

lions wilhs show the wondering world that
when il comes TO learning new tricks the
circus seal is n dyed in the wool expan

disentangle himself from the knots he
tied in his limbs last year; the acrobatlc
family, in attire at least. fresh from the
ballroom, Will turn dizzy somersaults In
defiance OF long dresses and swallow-tail
coats. and the clown will work of his
time -bouored comedy on the conndng
audience.
The merit In big circus such as that
OF Forepaugh- Sells Is In the fact that
everything in the show is the very best
OF the kind There must inevitably be
riding acts, but the riders are the leaders
Of their profession. There must be aero
bats. but the acrobatic artists and aerial
lists are gathered from the wide world
and are the best that money can secure.
