Days When Salt Lake Was Illuminated with Kerosnc

The first lamp in Salt Lake city
was put in place in the year 1869 At
that time a narrow bridge spanned

and North Temple streets, and as there
was much travel back and forth on the
first named thorughfare, 1t became
necessary to provide some kind oflight

flowing stream.
The above picture represents a

these parts, at least not for utility,
and the illumination produced from
this particular lamp was by means Of
kerosine. The post was cedar, Of con-
siderable dimensions. The rocking
chair represented in the cut was made
from the wood remaining after the
post seen in the picture was fashioned.

Salt Lake was first lighted by gas

Three-Eye Leaders Expected to Talk
Salaries With Springfield
President
AT CHICAGO MEETING TODAY
Capital Appears to Be Afflicted with
Central League Aspirations
Frets Under Limit.

Representatives of the other Three
Eye league clubs who are in Chicago
today to attend the meeting of tne
National Association of Minor Leagues
ale expected to have a heart to heart
talk with Dick Kinsella, president OF
ne Springfield team. regarding his
attitude on the salary question. Kin
sella will likely be asked to make his
position clear. 1t seems that down
Springfield way they are nursing the
hope that things may shape up so that
tie city can get into the Central
league, taking the place of either
Wheeling or GAINESVILLE. The Spring
field News openly advises Kinsella, ii
the other Three-Eye magnates fail to
&C me around to his way of thinking
which seems to be that $500 salary
Limit will kill the sport in Springfield,

hat the Central circuit is more
populous one than the Three-Eye and
no embarrassing questions about sal.
aries are asked the club owners.
Much business Pending
Today's meeting at Chicago has nu-
rlerous matters pending before It.
Chief among them Is movement on
the part of the American associ" ton
and Eastern league to have the West
ern and Southern leagues reduced to
Class B. This is expected to stir up a
big battle. There will also be an agi-
tation for shortening of the drafting
season.
NJ. H. Sexton. who with President
F. o. VanGalder and Q. L. Bruner rep
resent this city at the meeting, will
attend the sessions of the national
board. which has scores of contests
TO pass upon. The first sessions were
held yesterday.
One of the missions OF James T.

Football Enthusiasts Are Sizing Up
Rock Island and Moline High
School Teams.
THEY ARE EVENLY MATCHED
Prospects Are That Saturdays Match
Will Prove the Battle Royal of
the Present Season.

All the football fans of the twin.
cities are beginning to sum up the ad-
yantages and disadvantages of the
Moline and Rock Island football teams
which will be factors in determining
he result of the game which will de.
eide the championship of the three cit
les when the teams meet next Satur-
day Since the defeat Moline expert.
enced at the hands of Rockford, Rock
island stock has gone up considerably
and hopes of victory are strong in this
city Rock Island should be in better
physical condition than their rivals, as
hey laid off last Saturday while Mo
line was getting all bruised and bat
tered and bumped, the results Of which
will not have entirely worn away by
Saturday. IS ..
Are Evenly Matched.
The two are about as evenly matched
as one could want as far as weight
goes, though the advantage is a little
in favor of Moline. Rock Island will
average trifle under las pounds to
the man and Moline averages a trifie
over JAG to the man, making nearly a
pound and half difference in favor of
each Moline player. The locals expect
to overcome this slight difference in
weight by superior playing and speed
There will be a greater difference in
the weight of the back fields, however
than in the weights of the whole
teams, as Moline averages 10 pounds
higher in this department than does
the red and gold warriors. This ad
vantage is confined to Woodyatt and
Wyland, who bring the total weight OF
the backfield SO far above that of Rock
Island. Wyland at fullback is flanked
by two halves who are lighter than
Rock Islands halves. Woodyatt has
over 40 pounds the advantage over
Kelley. the midget quarterback of the
locals, and he ought TO be able to use
it to advantage. The Rock Island
backfield is better balanced than that
|of Moline. however, and with their
|speed can be expected to hold up their
end of the game nicely. In the line
there seems 10 be little difference in
the relative weights of the two teams

tive merits of the 4wo teams as far as

ACCUSED OF TWO MURDERS
Love Of a Girl Leads to Capture Of
Much Wanted Man.

Chicago, Jan. 24-The love of a
girl, who, against the wishes of her
mother, had been secretly meeting
Horace Simmons, led to his arrest on
the charge of being implicated in the
murder OF Policeman William r.
Mooney, who was shot by highwaymen
on the night of Jan. 2.
Grace Warner, twenty-one years
old, has been meeting Simmons every
night, while detectives were searching
the city for him. The police learned
of this and followed her from her
home. Just as Simmons greeted her
half a dozen detectives surrounded the
couple and Simmons was forced to
surrender at the points of revolvers.
Simmons, according to the police,
is the most desperate highwayman
who has worked in Chicago since the
car barn bandits. William Brown, the
confessed slayer Of Policeman Mooney,
and Thomas Mccain, an accomplice,
both say Simmons was with them at
the time of the murder. ~ <-.~
Simmons is also under indictment
for the murder of Herman Hansen, a
saloonkeeper. Twenty or more saloon
robbsries are charged to Simmons.
Recently a reward was offered for his
capture.

FOR THE CHILDREN
Shadow Tag Is q jolly Game.

Shadow tag is a good game for the
early morning or late afternoon. when
the shadows are long and clear. says
the Washington Star. 1t may be play
ed in any clear space where there are
one or two trees or a house to afford
shadows. for the shadows are the
"goal," where the players are safe.
and the child who is lit instead of
tagging the others tries to step on
their shadows as they run from one
shade to another. 1t is great fun. for
unless you are careful your shadow is
apt to bob up unexpectedly and will
be stepped on before you know it. We
played shadow tag very successfully
on a roof garden. where two sheds
gave us the necessary shade and an
open space of sun in between made
the shadows of the runners very dis
tinct. s s...
In cold weather. when you need
exercise and don't know exactly what
to play. it is good idea to run races
and let one of the children find prizes
for the racers. The prizes may be any
thing she finds at hand-the more
ridiculous the better-but it makes the
race more interesting to have them,
particularly if they are presented with
a speech. 1t is well to let all the play
ers have prizes, though of course the
winner receives the first prize.
