DEN MARK.

Borgberg, a social-democratic mem.
Der of the folketing, or Danish parlia.
ment, has introduced measure con.
ferring the right OF ballot upon the
women. He took this action on behalf
of his party, he said, which gives it
considerable political significance, ow.
ing to the growing strength and activ.
ity of the socialists of Denmark. Borg.
berg stated that he is convinced that
the women are sufficiently schooled in
political affairs to vote intelligently,
and that woman suffrage would i'm.
prove the social conditions Of the coun.
try. It Is also proposed by the same
party to cut the legal age down to 81
years. as in the United States on the
ground that the young men of the land
ought to have greater influence in its
affairs. This would also be radical
change, but in all probability sa1l,.

The Stock Exchange was crowded
at $40 O'Clock last night when Presi-
dent Witcher called the meeting of
the Commercial club to order. He
explained that the meeting had been
called for the purpose of deciding
whether Ely intended to celebrate
the Fourth or whether the club
would boost an excursion to Ogden.
The question was thoroughly dis
cussed and the unanimous decision
was that the town would celebrate
the day in good style and invite the
people of adjoining places to partici-
pate with Ely.
II urge a celebration" said d. G.
Mcdonald. ''If for no other reason
than setting an example to the young
people we should celebrate. The
Fourth of July above all days should
be fittingly observed and by raising
$500 or 5000 we can give all an en-
joyable time. Let the baseball boys
go to Ogden if they wish. Let us,
however, celebrate"

WONDER TO HAVE
ELECTRIC PLANT.

Plans to bring electric power to
Wonder through the medium of sew
eral strong waterfalls across the
Dixie valley, about twelve miles from
town, are maturing rapidly. Some of
the representatives of the Wonder
Electric Light and Power company
have been In San Francisco getting
estimates on the necessary machin-
cry, and find that the water wheels,
dynamo, wire and other essentials of
the plant will cost about SIS, 900.
With this plant the company will
supply the Wonder district with an
abundance of electric power for min
ing machinery and for lights. The
intention is to also bring water across
the valley as far as Victor, and per-
haps to Hercules, although the Bench
Creek Water company has ample ia
cilities for supplying the latter place,
as well as Wonder.
F. b. Weir, the president of the
company which has obtained the wa
ter rights across the valley, has gone
to New York City, where he has
strong connections, to obtain the cap
ital for the enterprise. The indica-
tions are that there will be no diff
Guilty about this, and that work on
the plant will be started in the very
near future.-Wonder Mining News

Osceola is being heard from nearly

their operations on a big scale.
II. M. Lesher, superintendent, and
Joseph +. Scheswohl, manager for a

are conducting operations at Osceola.
They have five claims which they in

east of Osceola, that they intend to
develop. The company is working
four men on quartz claims.
DR.. Richardson of this city has a
placer claim and is working eight
men.
In fact, the town is on the verge
of big boom. Options are being
taken on considerable property. The

ing.
According to report from the

This resort Is but few hours ride

pense to visit this beautiful lake,
which is especially delightful In Sep
tember, because 1t is in the altitude
where summer heat Is unknown.
The resolutions adopted by the ed
itors were as follows:
Whereas, The National Irrigation
congress has been largely instru-
mental in In the development of ma
tional policies of arid land reclama-

by contributed materially to the pro-
gress and prosperity of the nation;
and
Whereas, The fifteenth National

COSTLY BALLOON
DESTROYED BY
vANDALS

According to the Salt Lake Herald
there will be no captive balloon at
the Salt Palace this season.
This morning, providing the plans
of the aeronaut, p. A. Van Tassell,
are carried out, as he gave them last
night, a big $4,000 silk bag that has
been treated with oil until it resem-
bles finely cured skin, will be pulled
Palace, a match touched to it and the
balloon converted into nice hot
bonfire.
Van Tassell and his partner, e. d.
Wenban, are the victims of some
know which. The balloon men
claim they are out about $4,000, in
cidentally, and years work has
gone for naught. Early yesterday
morning miscreants broke into the
big canvass balloon house at the Salt
Palace and cut eleven slits in the silk
bag, varying from four to ten inches
long. Not satisfied with their van
dalism, apparently, a fluid of some
sort, evidently an acid, was squirted
over the balloon in half a dozen
places, SO that when the bag is pulled
OF SUBJECTED 10 d SJTdIH Ol Ine SlISHl-
est nature, the silk tears.
The special police at the Salt Pal
ace have worked on the case for a
day and a half with no results. The
perpetrators of the cutting are ap-
parently safe from detection. Neither
Van Tassell or his partner can give
any clue as to who the guilty parties
are. 1t is the second time the bal
loon has been cut since it was
brought here June 2 by Van Tassell.
The latter owns a balloon factory at
Oakland, Cal, and last night he said
it took years work to make the bag
that has been ruined. Il made 1t
for my own use and I made it as
good as | could with 22 years eX-
perience behind me-" he said.
A complete gas plant was put up
at the Salt Palace, a big balloon
house erected, and an engine and
drum with 700 feet of steel cable
put in for the balloon. About ten
days ago the bag was inflated with
hydrogen gas and a cut about two
inches long was found near the main
valve. Van Tasell patched it inside
and out, delicate undertaking, as
the hydrogen gas leaks through the
smallest hole. Sunday night the
balloon was left lying on the ground
outside the balloon house, and yes
terday morning when Van Tassell
and his assistants started to drag it
in to give it a coat of oil the cuts
and Sits in the silk were discovered.
Every slit is along seam, the
most difficult place to patch. Van
Tassell says he won't try to patch it..
"It is almost impossible to patch as
fine balloon as mine and not have
it leak, and there is an iron clad rule
among veteran balloonists to the eff
feet that a leaky balloon will lose
you money and probably kill you.
Patch as thoroughly as you will,
there is sure to be needle holes
through which the gas can escape
and cause a cavity or slight depres-
sion in tn eface of the balloon. Such
cavity, be it ever so small, operates
like sail on any big balloon. The
air catches it and will drive the bal
loon every way but the way 1t should
go.
81 shall not attempt to bring an
other balloon to Salt Lake, for it is
evident that someone wishes to pre-
