ACADEMIES River Pirates"

In Offering The River Pirates a.
II Woods believes he is presenting the
class Of entertainment most desired by
the patrons Of the popular-price thea
tiers.
1.-THE River Pirates makes no claim
upon the artistic, its aim is 10 furnish
an evenings entertainment easily UNI
derstood by all To awaken sympathy
for the injured. 10 arouse condemnation
OF evil and injustice, and 10 teach the
egson that virtue. honesty. and upright
ness are best In the long run, are the
lessons OF the play.
THE River Pirates Is a pretentious
production. requiring a large amount
OF scenery and the mechanical effects
add greatly to the effect. The comedy
is hilarious. but free from anything OBJ
iectionable.

MARL DEPOSIT FOR NEW
CEMENT PLANT.

Harry G. Baker, describing the mari
deposit north OF Brigham City, where
the Ogden Portland Cement company
Is to establish plant capable OF
producing 500 barrels of cement daily,
says:
Within the memory Of the earliest
inhabltant. the barren fiat north of
Brigham City which is crossed by the
Oregon Short Line railway has been
called 'alkali, railway and indeed the
surveys Of the 'barrens.' as the dry
area of Box Elder lake has been
termed, does have the appearance of
alkali, but IN this instance 1t has
been proven that the deposit within
a certain area Of the lake-bed,
amounting TO 1900 acres, with depth
from the surface of nine feet, shows
by chemical analysis to carry uni
formly 81 per cent carbonate of lime
1-3 per cent silica, 10 per cent
alumina and iron oxide: and there are
no Objectionable rebellious elements
in the deposit
This deposit of mari, by itself. has
just the chemical elements In proper
proportions TO make Portland cement.
but unfortunately, directly underlying
there Is blue clay, which by analysis
shows that it contains 40 per cent in
silica, Ia per cent in alumina. and
per cent in oxide OF iron. This CLAW
mixed in proportion of practically one
part OF clay to four parts of mari,
makes cement equal to the best Eng,
lish or Portland cement. An investiea-
ton was made by Henery S. Spack-
man Engineering company. who are
the leading scientific cement engin.
GERS aud experts of the Lehigh VALLEY
district in Pennsylvania. with head
quarters and laboratories in Philadel-
phia. Their men spent some time
on tho barrens OF Box Elder lake.

omen the cells and begin TO restore or
der. Deatings begin. Then, to pre-
vent shrielSing, they gag them they
curse with rich oaths; they take away
bed. soap, sugar; tobacco. etc.
Then the execution must take place
in reality. That is already known
from the evening. for it is seen from
the number Of collins brought in how
many persons will be executed ut
night. Afterward the police come
and stop in the corridors of the pris-
on and in the courtyard.
Somewhere is heard the smotherod
sound OF struggle. sort of cry. and
II is evident that they have not yet
succeeded in fastening up the mouth
of the man who is to die. They open
the cell Of the condemned and sew
eral men fall on him; one has pill
low to shut his mouth with. But the
criminal IS ready, he will not give
himself up without struggle, only he
has nothing at his disposal and can
not long resist. There Is no shriek,
one hears moaning and hoarse rat
tie"
There may be much Of exaggeration
TO this letter, but what horrible
scene if it be true! And what barbar-
GUS deeds!
The horror Of it all Is capital pun
ishment. Why put men to death in
Russia, or in America? Did capital
punishment ever make one murderer
stop to count the cost Of crime?
Had we in this country central
prison. like that at Sebastopol, where
executions occurred, there might
therein be enacted the terrible bru-
talities recorded by the imprisoned
member of the duma In Russia.
Putting men TO death Is repulsive,
terrible act
