CAPTAIN RoAL0 AMUNDsEN.

OCantain Road Amundson. the great
Norwegian explorer, is scheduled to ad-
dress the Salt Lake public in Assembly
hall this evening. He will tell some
thing about his experiences in compiet-
ing the greatest achievement OF It's
character in this generation, the dis
coverv of the Northwest passage. cap
tain Amundsen is the only man who
has sailed from the Atlantic into the
Pacific around the northwest corner
of this continent, and the story he has
to tell is full of human interest.
An impression seems to have gone
ont that Captain Amundsen will speak
in Norwegian This is an error. His
command of the English language is
weIl-nigh perfect. He speaks fluently
and with only a trace of accent. The
proceeds from this lecture, as from
others. are to be devoted to the equip
ping of another expedition to the far
north. And. best of all, this time Cap
tain Amundsen is to sail under the
Stars and Stripes.
The Herald bespeaks for him an au-
dience that will fill Assembly hall to
the uttermost limits of its capacity.
He thoroughly deserves such an audi
ence. We do not believe anyone who
hears him will be disappointed. On
the contrary. all of his auditors will
be given a great light upon a sub
ject upon which most of them have
been grOping in darkness.

cUPPoRT THE LIBRARY.

Considerable comment has been made
on the discovery by the library board
that a council appropriation of $1,000
for the institution has been burked
and declared illegal by the city attor-
ney. To aggravate the situation no no.
tice of this action was given the Ii
brary board. which based its meagre
expenditures on the suppositiOn that
the 81 600 was available. and it is now
confronted with an overdraft to be met
out of its already inadequate revenue
from taxes.
Just what grounds the city attorney
found for declaring the appropriation
invalod has not appeared When Mr..
Packard made his magnificent gift Of
grounds and a library building to the
city. the council accepted the gift deed
and the conditions which went with il
namely, that the city should always

found their operating expenses in

appeal from the library board the
council passed this $1,000 appropriation
as an emergency measure. 1t seems
curious that bills for carriages. incl

that an open appropriation for city

HAS NIAGARA A RIVAL?
(Pearson's Weekly)

From time to time during the past
100 years or more the world has been
startled by the news of discoveries in
various parts of theN world of mighty
waterfalls that are alleged by their dis
cOverers to rival or surpass Niagara
in point of size and volume of water.
The latest Find" of the kind has
been made in the hinterland of British
Guinea by the late DIR. Carl Bovallius
(curiously enough, the same cable that
brought to England the news of his
discovery brought also that of his I'M
timely DEATH, managing director of a
rubber concern known as the New Es-
'sequebo Exploration company.
The new giant cataract which. by the
bye. has been named Chamberlain falls,
after the Right Hon. Joseph Chamber
lain, is said to be 200 feet wide by 300
feet in height. This would make 1t
about twice as high as Niagara, but
rather less than one-eleYenth as wide.
and in no sense. therefore. can it be
considered a rival since in cataracts it
is width, plus volume of water, that
counts.
There are plenty of higher falls in
the world than Niagara Even British
Guinea itself can boast of one. the Kali
teur, to wit. which is 40 feet high.
But, then. the volume of water flow
ing over it is comparatively insignifi-
cant.
The Yosemite falls, in California, the
highest in the world. descend 1850 feet
in what is practically one continuous
leap Yet the volume of water falling
over them IN a year. 1t has been COM
puted, is considerably less than that
flowing over Niagara in a single day.
And this same comparison holds good,
in a slightly greater or less degree.
with the other great cataracts of the
world Niagara, in short. has no rival
nor ever will have. in all human prob
ability. The nearest to approach 1t are
probably the Victoria falls. on the
Zambesi: but even these. although both
higher and wider, are far less stupen-
dous as regards the actual water fall.

OLSON KILLED TWO TIGERS
- PUT UP THE FIGHT OF MS LIFE

in rapid succession, and his tail was
flashing his sides. To the right and be-
hind him stood the COW, apparently
equally anxious, turning round and
round, and the two calves with pit
eous bleats were nesting up to her
side. My rife went involuntarily TO
my shoulder, when Ram Dass touched
my arm and pointed to some shrubs on
the left. There. low crouched with
switching tail and cleaning fangs, lay
a Bengal tiger facing the bull. and the
Bill, pointing a little farther beyond,
held UP two fingers.
That was the picture. and it was
easy reading. The bison had cast a
ring and come back nearly on their
own tracks: they had evidently been
trying to get away from the tigers,
for their tracks and their heaving
sides showed they had been travelling
fast. The calves were evidently dead
beat. and the bull had at last been
compelled TO turn TO bay and was go
ing to. put up the fight of his life for
his mate and little ones. 1t was evil

And what a splendid picture he made.

family; what a contrast to the low
crouched, furtive tigers, My sympa-
thies were entirely with him. as he
faced them with the light of battle in
his eye, his distended nostrils breath
ing fire, and his tail furiously lashing
his heaving sides. Despite his vast
bulk he was as quick on his feet as
a clever lightweight boxer, as he
turned this way and that, trying to
watch both his assailants an once.
Surely nothing could stand up against
that strength and agility.

the housemaid. The girl had no bust
ness calling her liar even once. To
call her a liar twice was enough to
arouse the choler of the most peaceful
housewife. She impressed the girls
mind with the gravity of her offense in
about the only way such a girl could
have been impressed-by the slap di-
rect, physically administered.
We judge that Recorder Lazarus is a
man of family whose wife has in her
time had abundant opportunity to
tackle the interminable and insoluole
servant problem. His sympathies went
out instantly to Mrs. Cohn, and we
hardly blame him. He might with some
reason have suggested that he would
file a petition on Mrs. COINS behalf
for a Carnegie medal for heroism. Not
every housekeeper would take chance
at slapping a servant.

Mrs. Conn were equally TO blame. Inc
