The Salt Lake tribune. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1890-current, 1908-11-08

Pat Connor and his army entered Salt
Lake City in the early SIXTIES and by
strange coincidence one of the men who
came with the army was one of those
employed in the work of demolition Sat
urday.
Around the old structure cling many
sad "reminiscences, for it is said that in
early DAYS many a human wreck aweary
of his struggle with the world sought
the old bridge and from it plunged into
the stream below, and thus ended an
existence which had become an unbear-
able burden.
A temporary bridge will be completed
IN five days, so that traffic will not be
seriously impeded. In a few weeks il
will be replaced by a modern steel
bridge, plans and specifications for
which have been drawn by the city en-,
glneer.

TO have the team in use, because the
efforts of the men were sufficient to
bring down the structure, and with a
loud wrench and creak the old structure
swung around and toppled into the

At the different army stations in the
west it is the practice for the officers
on leaving their post for some distant
station to sell off everything they do
not care to keep. In connection with
this custom in "Reminiscences of Sol.
Her's Wife. Mrs. Ellen Biddle tells an
amusing story.
There was very estimable woman
living at the garrison, a veritable Mrs.
Malaprop. She told us of some jew
elry she had lost, and among the
things was a topaz chain with beau
tiful pendulum"
The lady held an auction before she
left, after her husbands death, and
when some silver plated knives were
put up for sale she rose and in a sob
bing voice said: "Oh, dear, no! can
not sell them! They have been In dear

asks the banker how to invest it. 1t
would be better If more Of this class
would take the bankers advice when
It is given. Then there is the merchant
who owes for large portion Of his
goods. He comes nervously asking If
the bank will "see him through" the dull
season. The banker gives assent to
one, explains to another, refuses third
and comes at last to read unconscious
ly the business record Of every man he
meets on the street.
The country banker exerts his great
est influence on national finance dur
ing the crop harvesting season. Wheth.
er it be in the gathering Of fruit in
California, of cotton In the south or Of
wheat in the plains region, the banker
comes in direct touch with the worker.
Take the wheat harvest as covering
the widest area and creating the most
intense demand during its existence.
In single state 10000 harvesters are
needed besides those already at work
on the farms. Through the labor bu.
reaus and railway departments whole
train loads Of workers are secured from
states at distance. These helpers are
mostly itinerants, and they have no 10.

among his laborers one Saturday night
and, asking their names, proceeded to
make out checks for the weeks work.
"What shall we do with them?" ask,

"Cash them at the bank, of course"
"Who will identify us?''
The employer saw the point, tore ur
the checks and secured currency With
which to pay the men. That made q
demand on the bank. Scores Of other
farmers were doing the same thing.
Hundreds Of other communities did it.

The Forum Romanum, the first that

for the purposes of trade and all pub.

when the fora numbered some eight.
cen or twenty, they were divided into
two classes, some for public meetings

What Might Have Been.


Lord Rosebery in an address at Glas-
gov university some years ago gave ut
terance to the following interesting
speculation:
"Had the elder Pitt when he became
prime minister not left the house of
commons he could doubtless have in
duced George III. to listen to reason,
introduced American representation
into parliament and preserved the thir-
teen colonies to England. The new
blood Of America would have burst the
old vessels"of the constitution and pro-
vided self adjusting system Of repre-
sentation. There would have been no
war of separation, no war Of 1872, and
finally, when the Americans became a
majority, the empire would perhaps
have moved solemnly across the At
lantic and Britain become a historic
shrine, the European outpost of the
empire"

Hasheesh, tho Strange Drug That 10
Used In the Orient.
Hasheesh, that strange drug which
has given our language its word "as.
sassin"-a man so frenzied by the drug
that he accomplishes MURDERS used
by the Persians, Turks and Egyptians
In a manner akin to the use of opium
by the Chinese It is the product of a
plant grown in large quantities In the
Peloponnesus (southern Greece) in the
district about Tripolitza. The plant
grows to a height Of about four. feet.
and it's branches are thickly covered
with small leaves and studded with
tiny seeds.
The entire plant, stalk and branches,
Is cut within few inches of the root
and laid out in the sun to dry. The
branches are then rubbed to separate
the seeds, and these in turn are ground
into a fine powder, which constitutes
the drug. The drug has the power of
inducing sleep and producing pleasant
and fantastic dreams. Continued use of
hasheesh renders it's devotees wild and
reckless and results in a complete
wreck of their mental and physical
constitution.
For this reason the Egyptian govern
ment prohibited the importation of the
drug and entered into a convention
with Greece to prevent its expectation
from there to Egypt where the con-
sumers Of hasheesh are very numerous.
The drug is practically never used in
Greece, but is now exported to the va.
rious ports in England, Austria, France
and Italy, and from there much, no
doubt, ultimately finds it's way to
Egypt.

THE QUADRANT.
Now the Idea Of the Device Came TO
Thomas Godfrey.

Now che Idea Of the Device Came TO
Thomas Godfrey.
Concerning Thomas Godfrey, a IA
nous American mathematician, there
is an interesting account in the "Lit-
erary History of Philadelphia"
Thomas Godfrey was glazier. He
seemed to be one Of the most singular
phenomena that ever appeared in the
learned world. .....
One day while at work at his trade
a young girl came to pump and filed
q pail with water, which was left upon
the sidewalk. The suns rays were re-
hected from Godfrey's glass to the pail
of water and then to his eye, thus COM
pleting triangle. This is said to have
suggested to the glazier's mind the idea
which in 1870 became the basis for the
double rejecting sea quadrant.
Prior to this time English mariners
had been using Davis bow to ascer-
tain their latitude at sea, but it could
not be adjusted in storm. Godfrey
gave the subject careful study, taught
himself Latin In order to read New
TONS "Principia" and endeavored to
have the value Of his invention recog-
nized in England. While thus engaged
he determined to have the device tested
on a ship bound for the West Indies.
In Jamaica the quadrant was exhibit
ed, or presented, to an English sea
captain. Thus the important discovery
came into the possession Of Hadley, a
mathematical instrument maker in
London, whose name it usually bears
in spite Of the long exertions Of influ-
entail Americans of the eighteenth
century to have Godfrey's claims es-
tablished and honored.
