A MARK OF PROGRESS.

The opening of the new Colonial the
atre in this city on Wednesday even
ing was another step in the transition
metropolitan. Splendid in appoint
ments. modern in its every accessory,
it takes rank with the best playhouses
of the country, not even excepting
those of New York and Chicago. AL
though not entirely finished. the new
structure shows lavish expenditure,
combined with perfect taste. and is
credit alike to Mr.. Auerbach, its own
er. to the architect who designed it
and to John Cort, the theatrical man
ager whose attractions will appear in
it.
Salt Lake unquestiOnably ranks first
in cities of its class as an amusement
center. Even in its village stage it
supported such attractions as were
usually to be seen only in the larger
cities. Its first theatre. the one bull;
by Brigham Young, was a marvel OF
enterprise in its day; and its history is
the story of the American stage since
its opening. 1t may be doubted wheth-
er any other house now standing in
this country has had SO long a record
of artistic triumphs or has seen so
many celebrities. Certainly no theatre
of today has maintained so high a
standard through so long a period
The newer house opens under most
suspicious conditions, and it finds a
constituency ready to enjoy its offer
ings. 1t is a part of the new Salt Lake,
and as an evidence of enterprise and
faith in the city it will find cordial
welcome from every playgoer in the
city.

We heard a great deal after the
RuSsO-Japanese war about the open
door in Manchuria, the Japs making all
the necessary promises to quiet anxious
commercial minds. But the open door
has never become a reality. American
trade In Manchuria has developed to
some extent, but the Japanese mer-
chants enjoy commercial privileges not
accorded to foreigners, even their dear
friends on this side of the Pacific.
There have been innumerable protests
from Germany. England and American
merchants in Manchuria, but assur-
ances were always given that it would
be all right in the end
Now comes the assertion, denied of
course, that Secretary Root has under
taken to force Japan's hand by re-
questing the foreign office to renew the
declaration of its attitude toward the
territorial and administrative integrity
which was made eight years ago.
when John Hay was secretary. So far.
it is claimed, the responses from the
japanese government have not been
entirely satisfactory.
In connection with the demand of
Secretary Root il is thought to be I,
significant coincidence that while these
diplomatic representations were being
urged the American feet of sixteen
battleships was making a practice
cruise in the Pacific ocean. 1t is doubt
full if the presence of the fleet has any
thing to do with the diplomatic game.
but the ships might come in handy in
case of trouble. What a climax to the
present strenuous administration an

A SAILORS CHRISTENING.
Harper's Weekly,

The late Bishop Potter once in his early
days had occasion to officiate at a chris
tenlng In a small fishing village on the
Massachusetts coast. The proud father
young fisherman, awkwardly holding his
first born daughter, was visibly embar-
raised under the scrutiny of the many
eyes in the congregation, and his nervous
ness was not decreased by the sudden
wailing of the infant as they stood at the
font.
When the time for the baptism of the
baby arrived, the bishop noticed that the
father was holding the child so that it's
fat little legs pointed toward the font.
Turn her this way he whispered, but
the father was too disconnected to hear
or understand.
Turn her feet around" the bishop whis-
pered again; but still there was no re-
sponse The situation was fast becoming
critical, when an ancient mariner in the
