ments as the parade started. The neces-
stiles of commerce refused to take note
OF the demands of royalty, and notwith-
standing the presence of the queen her
self a long string of passenger cars on
the Salt Lake line was backed squarely
in front of the horses.
The monarch regarded the enforced
halt with good nature and chatted ami

were attracted to the place and took ad-
vantage of the opportunity to secure a
large number of pictures of the queen

 Contractors Eggleston and Livingstone have nearly completed the modern con- crete residence of Dr. Charles Gilmore Kerley. The construction of this build ing is curiosity to us in Sharon for not only the walls are of concrete but also the floor. roof partitions and staircase which seem to us almost an impossibll- ity. Every part, however, is reinforced by steel. Great care is necessary in it's construction as all the tubing for the in- troduction of water, electric lights, bells and whatever modern improvements may be required must be put in as the build ing progresses. In short all the wood work requirediare the frames, windows and doors, thus making absolutely 8 fireproof structure. It certainly will be pleasure to look forward, to economy that no new flooring, shingling, siding or painting will be necessary and as this beautiful structure stands upon the primitive rock it must endure through the centuries. Dr. Kerly spared no sx- pense to secure all the oonveniences lay ing at large expense, water mains, 8 sewer system and electric lights. We would welcome more men like Dr. Kerley to Sharon.

Vanity of Vanities,

It was not Solomon who wrote: Vanitas Vanitatum; but vanitas vani- tatum Is, in fact, the resume of his reign.

SILVER DOLLAR DOOHED no

According to local bAnkoro. ho
doom OF the silver dollar ~ . circu-
lating medium In the west was sound
ed In the order issued Thursday By
George B. Cortelyou. secretary OF the
treasury, announcing that the govern
ment would NO longer pay the express
on shipments Of money OF that dss-
cription. The government has paid
these charges for Is ysars. bat tAs
fund appropriated for paying trans
portation charges ON silver dollars
has been exhausted.
A silver dollar has besn . scarce
article for = long time In the eastern
cities, but the west has been fairly
we'll supplied with the coin Of that
denomination.
Local bankers have had consider-
able trouble lately In getting any
shipment OF silver dollars whatsvsf
from the east on account OF tAsir
scarcity and now that the cost OF ex-
press 10 to be added It u expected that
the supply will stop altogether. The
local bankers do not anticipate 10
disappearance from circulation At
once. however. ~ there 10 already
enough In use to keep liberal sup
ply here for . long time.
The ruling OF the treasury depart
ment does not apply TO the half dol
lars and smaller coins and there will
be no shortage in those denominations.
