HOW THEATER WAS BUILT.
Bishop N. ~. Cfawson Relates Some
Interesting Pioneer Experiences.

The Daughters Of Utah Pioneers
met Yesterday at the Lion House and
Bishop III. q. clawson continued his
pioneer "reminiscences, the talk be-
Ing perhaps the most interesting of the
series. The chief feature was u re-
cItat of the events leading 10 the
building of She Salt Lal1e Theater
which had its beginning az the time
OF the presence OF the United states
troops, AT that time there was little
wealth in the valley and when the
army prepared to leave provisions.
tents, nails, timber. and many neces-
sarles In the camp were on sale. presl-
dent Young put into Bishop ClaMson' s
hands about $4,000, and told him to
purchase what she sum would buy.
Tents ranging In salue from $40 TO
s14 were purchased at sc and SS
Nails and timber at similar reduc-
and other things purchased, and with
the help of the nails and other Items
conveniently provided. the Salt Lake
Theater was built Estimating the
cost at current prices. the SUM In these
days would amount 10 $4,000. bat IL
cost the people then far less.
Bishop Cl8wson also took chief pare
in the construction OF design of the
famous Eagle Gate. He made the
drawing OF the eagle and presented 1t
to President Young who approved of
it and had work commenced on II at
once. The eagle as built then at
Bishop Clawson's suggestion still
broods over the head of State street,
In fact few things OF Importance III
the territory were conducted In those
days without the conniVance Of this
enterprising and fAr-seeiHg man.
Besides these pictures. Bishop Claw
son drew vivid ones OF the privatIons
endured by the pioneers, describing
how tawhide was boiled for its sus-
tenance ard other desperate means
tried In The days Of strife with the In
hospitabie soil. The grasshopper
pla que was graphically described, and
other tests of The faith of the people.
MS Georgia G, F0ote. a daughter Of
Bishop C.lawson, sang beautiful song
illustrative of some OF the trials which
the people of the Church had endured,
and the meeting was altogether most
entertaining and interesting

TAFT HAS NO IDEA
Of rendering His Resignation Metcalf
Only One Who May Retire-That
Root Will Remain Was Long
Ago Settled.
TAFT HAS NO IDEA

Washington, d. G., Aug. 22.--Rumors
Of designations from the cabinet are
multiplying rapidly. A month ago the
report that Secretary Root intended to
leave the cabinet because he was disap-
pointed that he was not looked upon as
the logical successor Of Mr.. Roosevelt In
the White House Secretary Metcalf was
the next member Of the cabinet slated
for retirement, but this met with an
Oyster Bay denial. A week ago II was
Secretary Taft, and now 1t is Attorney
General Bonaparte, It il always very
reckless to make predictions about cabi
net designations, II is interesting to re-
call that they have been announced when
least expected The report about MIR.
Taft has been authoritatively denied. He
intends to resign from the cabinet only
in the event Of his nomination. And
now Attorney General Bonaparte comes
to the front with statement that he
expects to remain in the cabinet for
some time, The general belief here
among those who ought to know Is that
Secretary Root intends to remain iii the
cabinet until the end Of this admins
tration. AS for Mr., Metcalf, it is safe
to assert that he will remain at the head
of the navy department as long as his
presence there Is agreeable to the presi.
dent, but the belief hers Ii that with
the possible exception of the secretary
of the navy the cabinet win remain
intact during the remainder Of this adj
ministrati0n.
II was to be expected that Wall street
would inspire reports about the resigna-
tiou Of Attorney General Bonaparte. His
subtle sarcasm has undoubtedly proved
disturbing to the financial world and es-
pecially that portion Of it which lacks
sense OF humor But the belief here
is that the president has been chuck
| ling with satisfaction at the frank and
courageous manner In which Mr.. Bona.
parte has refused to hold out any hope
1 TO Wolators of the law because they
happen TO be wealthy or because their
| prosecution might disturb the present
| era of prosperity Ii is unlikely that
the administration will undertake to IS

And having announced clearly its pur-
pose to prosecute violators OF the law,

SIR THOMAS 70 SEND
CHALLENGE THIS FALL.
Will Challenge For The Fourth Time For
Americas Cup-No Understanding
AS to Terms Of Challenge.

New York, Aug. % There are the
best of reasons for the statement that
Sir Thomas Lipton's fourth challenge
for the America cup viii be received by
the New York Yacht club either during
September or the early part of October.
Sir Thomas has been making arrange
ments to this end ever since his arrival
in London from his lengthy visit to this
country last fall. He told his intimate
friends here just before he sailed, or
practically told them, that he would
again be with them In zoos acting a
very significant part in yachting mat,
ters
Sir Thomas viii keep his promise, and
viii be heard from this autumn. There
has been no official expression on the
matter as yet, but the stories abroad
that Sir Thomas has given up the idea
Of lifting the cup are wrong. He has
never abandoned the hope that the blue
ribbon Of the sea would in the end fall
to his lot to take "back home" as he
frequently expressed it.
The size of the challenging craft had
not been decided upon a fortnight ago,
but may be by this time. This import
ant point, and, In fact, all the details Of
the challenge, viii be kept secret until
the New York Yacht club has been
officially notified, TO do otherwise would
be discourteous to that club.
There has been no understanding
about the terms Of the challenge. This
matter remains the same az ever. Tine
N. Y. Y. @. has not made any promises
to Sir Thomas, nor given him the slight
est intimation that his challenge viii
receive otner than the usual club con.
sideration in such cases.
Sir Thomas viii challenge, however,
and it may be Just as well for those in,
terested In another international race
to make up their minds that this is the
situation at present.
