Mrs. Wiees Of the Cabbage Patch.

Local amusement lovers are to have
a peep at MRS. Wigs of Il
Cabbage Patch" the play which, like
the book of the same name, has be-
come familiar from one end of the
country 10 the other. 1t comes to the
opera house May !, and will be pre-
s,nted by carefully selected company
of character artists. Needless to say,
although the play differs from the
dramatization, every important fea-
ture OF the novel is preserved and all
the principal characters, even TO Lit
tie Tommy and the Wigs children,
are 10 evidence The plot, such as 1t
Is, concerns the domestic affairs OF
this delightful, optimistic, God-trust-
ing little woman, and those of her
neighbors, particularly Mis- Hazy, the
melancholy spinster, whose marriage
to Mr.. Stubbns furnishes perhaps the
most hilarious and picturesque situa-
ton of the performance. The play
from first to last has the spice of
quaintness, originality and hun or and
everyone of the characters are verit-
able kentucky types.

has sprung up inside Of a year and
spread over all the cities Of the land.
Manufacturers are making immense
fortunes out Of the tremendous de-
mand for skates, and rink owners are
getting rich on their gate receipts.
Even with the showing made there are
those who say that the pasttime has
not yet assumed anywhere nearly the
proportion OF the craze of twenty-five
years ago.
In this connection it is interesting
to know something OF the origin of
roller skating. 1t started In Boston IN
the fall of 1882, when the Mechanics
Pavilion was converted into a rink and
the ball bearing skate was introduced
for the first time. There had been
some little skating before at summer
resorts and big country houses, but
nothing to speak Of. The hard asphalt
floor used for time was not as
attractive or smooth as the maple floor
of today. BY 1884 IL was estimated
that Sl2 200, 600 had been invested in
the business in the United States
alone. Meanwhile it had spread TO
England, through the opening of the
Olympia at South Kensington, which
had just been vacated by Barnum &
Bailey. 1t was an immence place and
Accommodated three thousand skaters
at one time. by the next year Eng.
land was skating mad, and the prac.
tice had spread to France, Germany
and Austria, and had even reached
australia, India and South America
Then Mexico dropped its fandangoes
for a time and went wild over IT,
The most successful rink ever estab-
lished is said to have been the biggest
Of all, at Bombay. In America, the
fever continued until travelling theat.
rical Uroupes were driven out from the
profession, and they later combined to
rout the craze from their territory.
Suddenly the bottom fell out of the
whole business, Just as it did out of

ROLLER SKATING.

Deseret News, edltorial:-"The
launching OF a new form of amuse.
ment, or more properly speaking, the
return of an old one during the past
winter, caused an observant purveyor
Of public amusements to say, few
weeks ago, that all Salt Lake IS en-
skates He might have added that
the same was true with reference to
the rest OF the country, for that is
the fact, from Murray TO New York,
and from Butte to New Orleans. What
was an all sweeping craze quarter of
century ago has come back as pop.
ular fad, the permanency Of which re-
mains to be seen.
Roller skating, no matter how much
it Is CONNIE nded or condemned, must
be looked upon as an extraordinary de.
yelopment in the world Of sport. More
particularly Is this the case now than
twenty. five years ago. AT that time
there were far fewer forms OF sport for
the diversion of the people. Golf had
not yet come across the Atlantic and
lawn tennis had only commenced to
claim It's followers, while afternoon
vaudeville was a diversion unknown.
And yet, with all these new occupants

1t might be added here that no
city Of its size has finer or larger
skating pavilion than Logan at the
present time. The New Auditorium
compares more than favorably with
any like institution in Salt Lake City
and as place of amusement would
be a credit to any city. The finest
skates made are in use there, the
rink has excellent music at all tin es,
and the hall is so managed that 1t Is
a delight to go there If the average
person had any real conception of the
ease with which one may learn to skate
on rollers, and the exquisite pleasure
there is in skimming along without
effort over smooth surface of large
extent to the strains Of good music,
all Logan and Cache Valley would soon
be skating.

Pear BLIGHT.

The treatment OF the disease may
be classed under two general heads !:
% Methods which aim to put the tree
IN condition to resist blight or to rem
der it less liable to the disease, and
f2) methods Of determination of the
microbe itself, which is Of first i'm
9ortance for, if carried out fully, they
can be mo blight, says Gren's Frui.
Grower. The methods under the first
head must unfortunately be directed
more or less to checking the growth
of the trees and therefore are under
sirable except cases where it Is
thought that the blight will eventually
get beyond conc,,l in the orchard
Under the haad o. cultural methods
which favor or hinder pear blight, as
the case may be the most Important
are the prGnnir, fertilizing. cnltiva-
ion and irrigation, but details in re-
gard to these need not be given here
as the main reliance must be placed
IN the only really satisfactory method
Of controlling the disease; that is, the
determination of the microbes which
cause it. Every particle of blight
should be cut cut and burned while
The trees are dormant, not a single ac-
tive case being allowed to survive the
winter in the orchard or within q
half mile or so from it.
Pruning the Peach Tree.
AS a result of experiments at the
Massachusetts Experiment Station tht
following would seem to be the bes
method Of peach tree pruning:
1. Prune peach trees moderately, re
moving not more than one-third Il
one-half the previous years annua
grown, when the wood has been in
jured by freezing.
2. When only the fruit buds are xii
ed, the wood being uninjured and TIL
srees in good condition, prune severe
y, cutting back the annual growth
% two or three buds. 1t may be ex
pedient to cut some branches bacl
even into two or three-year-old wood

American and Canadian Tariff Laws Hamper Development of Countries on Both Sides of the Boundary and Serve No
 Legitimate Interest
From the Skagway Alaskan.

eighteen miles of country between Skag- way and the summit. Both of these regulations can have but one result they make food and work horses more expensive on the Yukon and to that ex- tent hamper the development of the countries on both sides of the interna- tional border. No legitimate interest in either country is served to the extent of a farthing, nor is any worthy purpose benefited in any way whatever.
 The American and Canadian tariff laws should be entitled, "Acts for the Purpose of Restricting International Trade; Curtailing Profits of American and Canadian Business Men, Artisans and griculturists: Delaying Develop ment, etc., etc. They are today the most nearly insurmountable obstacles in the path of progress with which en- terprise and energy have to contend in the north and elsewhere along the na- tional border.
 In the interest of the American conti- nent and the people that inhabit it, let us hope that the day is not distant when the tariff makers will forget to act as children and exercise some of the com mon sense in their law making that they use in their every day affairs.
