. MASS ON THE STAGE.
Catholic Church Ceremony Depicted
With Intense Realism.

Chicago, May Clasps of aston
Ashment came from an audience COM
posed largely of Roman Catholics,
when the curtain was lifted on the
second scene Of Rev. L. J. Vaughan's
play, "a Woman of the West" pro-
dnced in the Bush Temple theater
last night. The interior of a Catholic
church, showing the altar and an ac-
tor in the vestments Of a priest per-
forming the ceremonies Of the mass
were presented and continued for al
most three minutes. With an acolyte
assistant the offices Of the mass from
the sanctus to the offertory were
depicted, the chalice was lifted and
the mimic priest turned in benedic-
ton upon the audience to be in
terrupted by the flight Of a fugitive
into the edifice.
Each representation of the mass
was a copy of the genuine ceremony.
Lighted candles arched above the al
tar and the strains of music attending
the service in Catholic churches was
played softly upon the theater pipe
organ
As the curtain arose upon the novel
scene a burst of applause came from
the audience, but none came from a
dozen Catholic priests and scores OF
church members scattered through
the house. The intermission between
the second and third acts was taken
up by excited discussions of the
scenes. The play is of the melo-
dramatic order, although replete with
clever comedy touches and original
situations. The leading character is
enacted by Mrs. Annie Mack Berlin,
who 20 years age was a member of
the theatrical company in which the
present author was an actor.

ATTELL DENIES FAKE STORY
Gives Explanation Which Is Verified
and Convinces Western Sports.

San Francisco. Cal, May 5.-Abe
Attell resents the published story that
his fight with Sullivan was a fake. He
said:
Before the fight went to AIyie
King, the referee, and told him that
talk had been going the rounds that
the fight was fixed. 1 also said that
I had not a dollar bet on the fight
and suggested that it be best to call
off the bets, and that if Sullivan had
advised his friends to bet any money
that he would lose it would knock
that scheme in the head. King agreed
with me and we gave as the reason
the changed conditions of the match.
So far as 1 know the fight was en-
tirely on the square"
King corroborates this statement

LAST TREE DOWN
OF the Thirteen Which Stood on the
Alexander Hamilton Estate.

New York, May 5.-Alexander Ham,
ilton's famous group of thirteen trees
has ceased to exist. The only one that
has been left standing for some time
was felled last week and with their
destruction has passed away one more
of New York's historic landmarks.
The trees stood in an open plot of
ground that will soon be utilized for
buildings, facing Convent avenue be-
tween 1920 and 1890 streets. The
boys of the neighborhood were busy
yesterday hacking off pieces of the last
Hamilton tree and offerinng them to
passersby as souvenirs at prices rang
ing from 10 to rs cents. Several older
residents who have viewed the trees
with veneration for the last quarter
of century have procured pieces
large enough to be made into walking
sticks.
Whether Hamilton planted the trees
or not is much mooted question. In
the limelight of recent historical in
vestigations this has been denied. They
did. however. stand on Hamilton's
country estate, known as the Grange,
and the old Hamilton hose is still
standing.

IN the very best kind of style
Those who are acquainted with the
resources OF Denver and its area have
never had any doubt about its rising TO
the greatest occasion in its history. The
people over there have a pleasant habit
of all pulling together for the bene-
nit of their town. They have lively
fights among themselves on political
matters and say some very unpleas-
ant things about one another, but
when it comes to whooping things up
for Denver everybody finds a place
on the bandwagon and everybody car
ries a megaphone.
Theirs is the spirit that builds up
a city. With nothing approaching the
natural advantages of Salt Lake City,
Denver has far outstripped US in the
race for population and commercial su-
premacy Latterly. though, Salt Lake
has been waking up. 1t has come closer

all boost, that part of the people can
not prosper without sharing their pros
perity with the rest. We hope the
spirit latterly manifested will become
more pronounced, so that whenever you
meet a Salt Laker you will meet a
booster.
And when that day comes you'll see
Salt Lake with a population of 200.O 900
people almost before you realize what
is happening.

DENVER MAKING GOOD.

An Associated Press dispatch from
Denver says that. "all things consid-

more comfortably conducted than the

planning TO receive the delegates and
visitors with the most cordial hospital

the convention hall declares il to be
apparently a model for convention
purposes" coupled with the further
statement that its shape is such that
a far greater number of people will
be within range of a speakers voice
than was possible in the Chicago coli
scum"
That sort of news is gratifying to
western people generally. The conven-
ton that opens in Denver next Tues
day is the first national gathering ever
held by either of the great parties in

been observed in good faith by the

been of great benefit 10 them. In the
one matter of rate-eutting alone the
law has saved the companies large
sums: and the fact that there is no
rate-cutting means, also. that every
shipper is getting a square deal as
against competition with men who used
to have an unfair advantage when spe-
cial rates were TO be had.
So the rate bill has been a very

MORE ABOUT SHERMAN.

A correspondent of the New York
Times calls attention to the fact that
'Trusty Jim" Sherman. Republican
candidate for the vice presidency and
one of New Yorks representatives in
the lower house of congress. was a
strong advocate of the mileage grab
attempted by the house several years
ago. The senate prevented this pro-
jected lOOting of the treasury. but it
was no fault of "Trusty Jim" that he
and his colleagues did not draw money
TO which they we're no more entitled
the vaults of any Salt Lake City bank
1t will be remembered that in 1903
President Roosevelt called a special
session of congress which lasted until
a moment before the regular session
was called to order. 1t was physically
impossible for any member to go home
ii was even impossible for one of them
to walk down the capitol steps and

Jim" Sherman. a coterie of house Re-
publicans that included Utah's distin-
guished representative, Joseph Howell,
undertook 10 collect mileage from
Washington 10 their homes and back
again.
The first attempt was made in jan
uary of 1904. but it never reached a
vote because of the congressional cleo
ton to be held that year and because
the members were afraid the people
would remember the steal and defeat
them. In 1906 March /, when the short
session was drawing to a close, the
gang renewed its assault. still led by
Sherman, and the house passed the bill.
Later the senate rejected it, but the
principle remains the same The Re
publican vice presidential nominee
could not be in a worse position if he
had actually received the proceeds of
the attempted. robbery.
In defining his position "Trusty jim"
said, according to the Congressional
Record:
Il want to say, in answer to the sug-
gestiOn of my distinguished colleague
from the Borough of Brooklyn (AIr
Baker, that neither on this PROPOSE
ton nor any other which l have ever
offered or ever shall offer in this house
am l afraid to stand upon my feet and
say that | am In favor of it. / have
never had any doubt about our legal
right to draw the money, / never had
any doubt, and have none now, about
our moral right to draw the money"
Mr.. SheTman's moral view must be
peculiarly distorted The purpose of
the law giving mileage to members OF
congress was TO reimburse them for
expenses incident TO going from their
homes TO Washington and back again
II was never intended to operate as
private graft. A man who believes
il is right to take from the United
States treasury money for which he
returns no reasonable equivalent, nor
any equivalent whatever is not fit to
be president of the United States. And
L follows, of course, that he is not
fit TO be vice president.

But the latter isn't going to be chair

Next in line is Hitchcock, who
achieved a certain distinction as herder
of southern delegates after they had
been branded by the boss of the works.
Taft is generally thought to favor
Hitchcock for the place because of his
services at Chicago and also because
he halls from Ohio, where they breed
men especially for the purpose of run
ming for office or filling them by ap-
pointment if it comes that way. Some
members of the Republican committee,
however. those who went down before

the lead the wheel oxen are likely to

Vorys helped put the kbosh on For
