The Epicurs.

A French waiter In a fashionabl restaurant had just served an epi- curean guest with culinary master. piece and was in a talkative mood.
 My brother. Gustav of Dax." he said. .'is a renowned gourmet They talk all over Dax of Gustav's way of grilling a lamb outlet It is good way. but expensive My brother al ways grills his own chops. He won't trust the work to any one else. He does it like this: He lays three chops. one on top of ihe other. on the grill Seated before the fire. he turns the chops over and over till the two outer ones are done to very dry brown. The middle one only Is the one he eats. An. but il must be delicious, IL has received. you see. all the rich. delicate juices of the other two"
 The guest sneered. And does he throw the other two away:" he asked.

An 6bbreviation,

colonel of a British regiment in South Africa who was repairing a rail. road after one of General De Vets many breakages discovered fine emp ty house. which he proceeded to oeeu- py as headquarters.
 When the news of the colonels com fortable quarters reached Bloemfon- tein he received telegram which read.
 C. T. Nj. wants house."
 The colonel was una ble to make out what "G. T. Nj" meant and inquired of officers. who translated it general traffic manager"
 All right" said the colonel. If he can use hieroglyphics so can l."
 So he wired back:
 "G. T. NJ can C. T Fl"
 Two days later he received dis patch from Bloemfontein ordering him to attend a board of inquiry. On ap- bearing in due course he was asked what he meant by sending such an in sulting message to a superior officer
 ''Insultinc:' repeated the colonel in- nocent.y. Tt was nothing of the kind"

 The slump came. and the Industrial X Manufacturing Co. moved to Mystic where 1t attempted the same land scheme as in Danielson. To raise mo ney to finance the Mystic enterprise, Frank A. Davis, one Of our most sue cessful contractors, was made vice. president of the corporation, with an attractive salary. Damase Boulais, an- other prominent contractor, was placed upon the board of directors, and the president of the International Engine Co., was also added.
 l.. J. coburn, the treasurer, ably as- sisted by the officers of the corporation, secured funds from trust companies and savings banks in Maine and Yer. mont--but endorsements were demau- ded. Here Is the beginning of the end. The endorsements were secured very easily.
 That was eighteen months ago. Since that lime the endorsers have been la- boring night and day to get their names off the paper, and yesterdays action, in attaching the property, was a final effort.
 The direct cause of the downfall Of this once prosperous corporation is ex- travagance, ably assisted by unfavora- ble industrial conditions which deve- loped about the time they moved to Mystic. It became difficult to sell lots and build factories because their bor- rowing capacity had been reached. The condition Of the treasury was wellnigh unto depletion.

MINSTRELSY AT BRIGHAM.
Commercial Club Show Sunday the
Talk of the Town.

Bingham April 2-Great preparations
are being made for the big Comm ercial
club minstrel show, which will be held
at Canyon han next Sunday. H L. Brown,
who SO successfully put on The Elks
Tooth in Salt Lake City recently, has
been drilling the members Of the club in
their various parts, and he has reported
that the entire production will be a big
success. The purpose Of the minstrel show
Is TO reduce the Indebtedness Of the Com
mercial cluo, which has been organized
for over a year.
A great deal Of interest is being mani
tested over the show and the sale Of
tickets has been so big UP to the present
time that the only problem now con-
fronting the committee is how 70 seat the
crowds. Merchants in the city. as well
as the friends Of the club. have taken an
active interest in the show, and they have
given notice to the chairman Of the COM
mittee that they will be out in a body.
Word was received here also last night
from the Salt Lake lodge Of Elks that a
crowd of the members would come out on
q special train. AS there are many Elks
taking part in the production that belong
to the salt Lake lodge it is quite probable
