THE LEGISLATURE.

Now for some new laws, Thousands
of notions are taking form. and the
brains OF members elect are already
overburdened with the fantastic and
impracticable ideas that are being daily
urged upon them by hundreds of their
constituents. II We think the grist Of
bills about to be turned into the mill is
cumbersome and to a great degree I'M
called for. let us at least give the MEM
bers credit for honestly endeavoring to
sift out the numerous palpably foolish
Ideas that the importunate constituents

mendations were adopted: In amendment

the facts or circumstances to which they
may testify. In amendment of court rules
and statute so that issue may be Joined
more expeditously both Mt law and In
Chancery. A statute allowing amend
ments from one form of action to an
other and joinder of forms as at present
prohibited.

providing for some extension OF the re-
ference system as at present constituted

association rejected the proposed amend
ment which made provision whereby the

RUTLAND COUNTY MURDER CASE.
(From the Rutland News)
With three men in Rutland county
court either pleading guilty or being con-
victed of murder in the second degree
within a week it would appear that the
heavy criminal docket in that county Is
being cleared M, and with considerable
credit to the prosecuting attorney. The
fact that two pleaded guilty is in itself
a testimonial OF the thorough manner in
which ATTORNEY Lawrence has looked up
the cases. That these murders have oc-
CURED among foreigners makes It OF
double credit as IL !s ten times harder

"The MiIIer,s Daughter"

Beginning with a Saturday matinee
Jan. II, the Lyric promises its patrons
a complete change of program. The
Utahna Stock company opens an en-
gagement of several weeks, and during
its stay presents two bills each week,
changing the program every Saturday
and Tuesday. The new company is an
exceptionally strong one and, judging
fICm the appreciation shown by the
first-nighteTs, it has made good. The
leading man. II. B. Carpenter, is not
unknown to Salt Lake audiences, as he
played a stock engagement here last
season. He was rendered a hearty re-
ception upon his return. But he is not
the only favorite, for he is ably assist
ed by a company as good as has been
seen in stock i'm Salt Lake. To go into
detail about the work of any particular
one. would not be fair, for they are all
good. The first bill. beginning with
Saturday matinee and running Satur-
day. Sunday and Monday. will be a
five-act sensational melodrama enti-
tied THE MilleTs Daughter" Begin
ming with Tuesday evening. and play
ing the remainder of the week, includ-
ing a special Wednesday matinee, the
company will present "A Hero in
Rags" Both plays are good, contain
ing enough of the sensational to make
them extremely interesting, and COM
edy enough to please all.

PROMISE OF THE THEATRES.

Local playgoers will welcome the
visit of the popular comedian, Frank
Daniels. who comes to the salt Lake
theatre next Monday and Tuesday
nights, for it is always safe to predict
q laHghter-laden entertainment when
ever he plays. Charles Dillingham; has
secured for his clever comedian d new
opera which is said to afford Mr.. Dam
iels one of those whimsically latitude
marian roles I'm which the public so de-
lights to see him.
The opera is entitled The TattOoed
Man" and when it is stated that the
music is Victor Herbert's, composer of
such tuneful masterpieces as m lie
Modesto and THE Red MILL further
euiogy Is unnecessary. The book is the
joint work of Henry B. Smith, author
of so many American successes, and a.
y. G. Fowler, a writer new to the
stage. This collaboration is said to
have produced a story which blends
frantically funny situations with a
genuine love interest.
The opera is i'm two acts. and the To-
Gale i'm Persia. The scenes, which are
said 10 be of more than usual magnifi-
cence, represent the courtyard of the
shah's palace, and a Persian rose gar

1.-The Land Of Nod"

1t seems quite in the order of things
historical that a great constellation of
mimicry. music and frclic such as 1.-The
Land of Nod" should have a career
filled with large personal Interest. The
spectacle was first produced in Chica-
go two years ago after Adams, Hough
and Howard, three successful compOs-
ers and librettists. had united in pro-
ducing their admittedly best efforts.
After run of year in Chicago it was
taken en- tour through the large cities
of the middle west and south. Then it
was returned to Chicago, where it ran
for six months. After the second run,
IL was taken TO the New York thea
tire, where it was rebuilt and rehabili-
tated in every way. possible, and was
just entering upon what was believed
TO be a recOrd-breaking run on Broad
way, when the theatre burned. GNortu-
nately. the cOnflagratiOn did not de-
stroy the big scenic effects nor mar the
costuming. and electrical effects The
bookings at New York theatres were
such as to prevent it's continued per-
Torrance there. so the ROrk company
decided to send it en- tour for a short
season before resuming its metropol-
itan stay, which was so unfortunately
interrupted. It is believed that the
be doubled in New York. as the de-
mand for this class of entertainment
among the millions of possible patrons
in and about New York is such as to
justify such a conclusion.
The presentation of THE Land of
Nod, which will be made at the salt
Lake theatre next Friday and Satur-
lay nights, is much gTander and more
sumptuous than seen at its initial Of
iering i'm the middle west. New songs
and dances and new light and tone eff
fects have been supplied, keeping it
far in the lead of other things of it's
kind. Managers who have the temerity
to invest 100000 in so vast a spectacle
cannot be blamed for locating it in the
center of millions of admirers. so il is
quite reasonable TO expect that the
New York time will be taken up soon
after its visit to Salt Lake.

PadereWski.

1t is difficult to know which to put
first, the art or the personality of Ig-
mace Paderewski Happily, however,
one need not consider them apart. II
is scarcely possible to be conscious of
one without the other; Paderewski is
one of natures harmonies. His is a
magnetism which compels both ma
jority and minority The Weariest cy-
mic cannot resist him as an artist, and
neither can a friend resist him as a
host, for what disarms the nissan
thrope is the simplicity of the man, the
pOise and sanity of his daily life.
It is luxury, to be sure, which the
great pianist and his household enjoy
but the luxury of nature, of sunlight
of air. of sixty acres of earth and
