Salt Lake musician, who left Salt
Lake seven years ago, is back in town
again. working hard on one of his
operas. p'hich a local company. COM

the Salt Lake Opera company, viii
present next month at the Salt Lake
theatre.
Since he wrote and produced The
Prince and the Peasant" here he has
MADE a name for himself as COMPOSER
and director for the Shuherts in New
York. ana is now engaged i'm writing
the score of Annie Laurie" a his
torical comic opera. the libretto Of
which was written by Raymond Hub
bell. a Chicago newspaperman.
The rehearsals of 'The Merry
Grafters.' which are now being held
here denote that Mr.. Orlob has long
since found his vocation. that of mu-
steal director.
He left Salt Lake TO become a piano
pupil of Alberto Jonas in the Michigan
Conservatory of Music. The first pro-
duction he directed was His High
ness the Rey." i'm Chicago. Then the
Shuberts picked him up and placed
him on their staff. He wrote for them

drilled says MIR Orlob. this bunch of
Salt Lake singers is the best. Maybe
others we're more experienced in stage
business. but they can't reaC music
like the Salt Lake girls. The Merry
Grafters' is too big unsteady for the
average professional beauty chorus"
1.-The Merry Grafters" was produced
in Detroit with great success. The
book has been overhauled and shot full
of local gags. and those who have wit
messed the reheaEsals now in progress
unhesitatingly aver that it will be
big hit. as the music is Of no uncertain
quality.

ments, the patter Of dancing feet and
other sounds simultaneously with
moving pictures. The opening pro-
duction viii be made at the New Lyric
| theatre. and the exact date will be an
nOunced later.
A new company, made up of Salt
Lake men, has taken over the Lyric
for cameraphone exhibitions. George
W. Morgan is president; John A.
Groesbeck, vice president; Rodney T..
Badger. secretary and treasurer, and
the other directors are Albert V. Me
CoTnick and A. s. Brown. John f..
Clark has accepted the position of 10
cal manager. The Lyric has been COM
pletely redecorated and improved In
many respects under the direction Of
Mr.. Clark.
Notably. it has been made safer
There are now five big exits on the
first floor and four on the balcony.
When these are thrown open it will
be possible TO empty the playhouse
though, filled to its capacity, in less
than two minutes. Another feature to
which attention is called is the box
in which the cameraphOne will be 10
Gated. Constructed of chilled steel
lined with asbestos of heavy texture
equipped with a mechanical cOntriV-
ance that instantly closes all openings
IN the event that film should be-
come ignited, the box is model Of its
kind.
A dozen rolls OF film could be fired
insidefit and the people in the house
would not know, save through the
stoppage of the picture. that anything
out of the ordinary had occurred. For
all the fumes and smoke would be car
ried out through a chimney that starts
at the top of the box and extends di-
~ectly to the roof Of the theatre. The
management, according to the city in
spector, has done so per cent better
by he public than the ordinance re-
quires.
1t IS hoped that the cameraphone
will have its premier not later than
Thursday evening, and every day
thereafter matinee and evening per-
i"r4ns ices will be given. Those behind
'hs movement confidently believe the
lyric will shortly become the most
popular amusement house in the city.

This weeks bill at the Orpheum
promises 10 furnish an evenings enter
tainment and amusement that will long
be remembered by the patrons of that
house. this notwithstanding the fact
that a very high standard has been set
during the past few weeks. In fact, it
seems as the season nears its close. the
bills are growing more and more meri-
torious
The headliners are Zeno, Jordan and
Zeno, three acrobats who perform
aerial stunts that border onto the mar
velous. This trio seems TO set at vari-
ance all known laws OF gravity and
equilibrium
Another favorite act is the one by
Bert Levy, who will be pleasantly re-
membered from his former visit here
Mr.. Levy is the popular artist of the
New York Telegraph. He employs a
projecting apparatus of his own inven-
ton which throws out on the screen
every stroke of his pen, and in this way
audiences learn just how a modern
cartoon is drawn. He is a top-notcher
in his class. and should receive a warm
welcome
Then there is James Cunningham and
company, who present an up-to-date
vaudeville offering that has made good
all along the circuit. 1t is entitled,
The Impulse of the Moment" Their
act lasts twenty minutes, and is said
TO be source of thorough enjoyment
every second of the time
Another sketch of an entirely differ
ent order is that of Devlin and Eli
wood's THE Girl From Yonkers" This
is sketch in which city man and an
innocent country girl furnish the fun.
IL is said that the wise turns of this
country girl in Outwitting the polished
man of the world are CONFUSING in
their humor.
How Patsy Went to War IS the We
hicle IN which John and Mae Burke
will appear. This is an amusing COM
edy by William NJ. Cressey and is said
TO be decidedly original and out of the
ordinary, both the performers being

FROM BEHIND THE CURTAIN.

How many theatre goers recognize
their favorites by the names they were
born with? In nine cases out of ten the
baptismal cognomen would suggest
merely some ordinary person who lives
i'm the fat house next door. In fact, it
is a wise star who remembers her own
name for i'm the case of the women the
process of assuming name and ac-
curing several others by marriage
casts the fetronylnic into utter eclipse.
Careful research develops the follow
ing facts.

Nashville, Tenn, July 1S-Follow- CTS of Gov. Patterson, especially elat- ed over his victory, have adopted a unique way of expressing their grat- ification. As it is well known. the governor for many years has borne the nickname of Ham, fact which became more widely known during the recent warm canvass. On the morn Ing of the convention. Tuesday, a strong supporter forwarded him a large country ham. with a cordial eX- pression of pleasure. Since then near ly every train has been bringing to Nashville one or more healthy sized country hams, marked to the execu- tive. It is predicted that before the week is out the mansion larder will be supplied with enough country hams to last Gov. Pattersons family through his new term.

Daily Routine of Their Liic-First Meeting of StOeSSel and

The unfortunate Generals Stoessel and Nebogatoff are now confined in the fortress of SS. Peter and Paul, to- gether with the naval commanders. Grigorieff and Lischin The generals have each spacious cell, well light ed, while the ether two prisoners have a cell equally large in common. The cells have large windows with iron bars overlooking the Neva and the Winter Palace. The furniture for each is camp bed, a large and small table, two chairs and a press.
 The prisoners outdoor recreation consists of gardening, under the di- rection of Lischin. who is no stranger to that art and mystery.
 According to the rules of the pris-

 At noon they dine together, Neboga- toff presiding at the mess. What the conversation of these men, upon whom fortune has not smiled, but whose bravery has never been impunged, is can only be imagined. At D. m. they sup and at 9 o'clock they take tea. Between times they can read what they like, newspapers, books and mag azlnes. It seems that Stoessel and Nebagatoff met for the first time in prison. They only knew each other from photographs. Alas, that We should meet in such a place. said Stoessel to his companion in misfor- tune as ''adown his cheek tear un- bidden stole Nebogatoff replied: God above is our judge We must never lGse courage

PREVENTION OF
 TYPHOID FEVER

iparations should be made from the
 first day for the thorough and system- atic dlsinfection of all discharges from the bowels and kidneys as will pro-
 tect other members of the family, the attendants, and the community.
 2 solution of chloride of lime, eight ounces to the gallon of water, should be provided in quantity, and ,,a quart of this should be put in the
 bed-pan or vessel each time before it receives the discharge, and should be well stirred and allowed to stand in the vessel at least an hour before it Is buried An equivalent solution of 1 creolln, or thick White-Wash made from the fresh quick lime may be used in the same way when the chlo-
 ride of lime can not be obtained. but with these at least two hours will be required to complete the disinfec- tion
 ;. Soiled bed or body linen should remain in the chloride of lime solu- tlon for an hour, and may then be safely put in the family wash Soiled paper or cloths used about the patient should be immediately burned At tendants should wash the hands ire quently and the lips, and rinse the mouth always before eating. No one should partake of any food which has stood in the sick room. All of these precautions should be continued until the recovery is complete and until all diarrhea has ceased
 1. Typhoid fever Is not contagious h the sense commonly understood. and if the precautions above indicated are faithfully and intelligently car ried out, q case may be treated in any family or community with perfect safely. If others have the disease, it will be because they were infected from the same source as the patient, or contracted it elsewhere The same precautions should be observed in dysentery and all other diarrheal dis eases. including summer complaints in children
 }. All we'll water and unfiltered water from rivers draining inhabited areas, where typhoid fever and diar- rheal diseases are likely to occur at any time. and milk stored in cans or vessels washed in such water, should be looked upon as suspicious. and should always be boiled before it is drunk by any one not immune from typhoid fever. In the absence of reliable filtered, public water supply, carefully collected and properly stor ed, cistern water is safest.
 6. The windows and doors of all dwelling houses, and especially of the kitchen and dining room, should
 always be we'll screened, and the flies actually kept out. Unless this is done a carelessly managed case of typhoid fever, or other diarrheal dis ease. even mile or more away, may be a source of danger on account of flies. As mosquitos are now known to be the carriers of malaria, the same precautions will protect from this poison also.
 The universal antNUfeclual practice of these precautions would require l- telligent care and some expense, bat would result in the practical disap- pearance of one of our most common and fatal domestic pestilences, which is not only a disgrace to our civiliza- tion, but an annual scourge and tax upon the people of Kentucky in con- parison with which yellow fever and cholera, plague and other exotic dis eases so feared by cur people sink into insignificance.

ka man that he declined absolutely to
do violence to his honest convictions;
that he refused to accept the nomina-
ton without a plain declaration that
his faith in free silver was still un-
shaken.
Although new issues had appeared
and the financial question had become
less insistent, Mr.. Bryan saw to it that
the silver plank was made prominent
feature of the Kansas City platform.
The war with Spain and the subse-
quent acquisition of the Philippines
had made the money question less
prominent, but Mr.. Bryan did not take
advantage of that fact to modify his
theory A single intimation. however
slight, that he had read1usted his
financial views would have united his
party and made him it's unchallenged
leader, but as long as he was con-
WINGED of the truth of his contention
he was ready to accept the conse-
quences, even the defeat which came
at the election.
Four years later Mr.. Bryan did not
seek the nomination. He made no Sc
cret of his intention to permit the dis
affected wing of his party TO make the
ticket He appeared at the conven-
ton as delegate and had something
TO say as to the platform, but he was
not active in the selection of the
ticket.
And now. for the third time, this
man who has preserved his fair repu-
tation at all times and in all places il
about to conduct a presidential cam
paign. Personal worth and personal
endowment are potent indeed. but they
are far from being everything that
contributes to the making of an
American president. If they were.
with Bryan and Taft in the field. the
problem would be a thousand times
more difficult and the result would be
even more problematical than it is.

DIPLOMACY IN THE ORIENT.

ITO illustrate the unsuitability OF.
European procedure in oriental AFFAIRS
| will cite an incident in recent politi-
cal history in Turkey says diploma
fist. "a certain Kurdish chief had ac-i
quired notoriety by his ruthless oppres-
sion of the Armenians in his district.
The consuls continually complained of
his mis1eeds TO the ambassadors in
Constantinople, and these gentlemen in
their turn addressed their complaints
to the Ottoman government. At last
the scandal became so great that the
sultan realized that some satisfaction
must be given.
The chief had many friends in the
palace, and an ingenious suggestion
was made by which he should be saved
and the ambassadors at the same time
satisfied. The ambassadors Were in
formed that to give them complete sat
isfaction, not only should the Kurd be
brought to justice. but he should be
tried at Constantinople i'm the presence
of the representatives of the embassies
The trial was held, and the hostile
witnesses. for the most part Arme-
mans, were encouraged to speak with a
freedom which they would not have
ventured in the provinces. and as a re-
suit they witnessed to the committal OF
every kind of possible and Impossible
atrocity. contradicted one another on
what purported to be statements of
fact and Obliged 4 court proceeding on
western principles to discredit all their
evidence.
THE chief was acquitted. His friends
had known how to protect him. The
ambassadors complaints We're silenced
And yet without the Intervention of
western procedure he could and would.
! if ii had pleased the government, have
/ been justly executed in the provinces
without any further trial than a reci-
tation of well known facts
