TWELVE STORMS
IN TWELVE DAYS
All Known Weather Records
Broken During First Half
of Month of August.

All known records for thunderstorms
in this locality were broken during
the first twelve days of the present
month, when twelve electrical storms
of unusual severity were recorded at
the local weather bureau. From Aug.
l to Aug. Is there were fifteen storms
centered over or near to salt Lake.
The storm of most severity was that
Of Aug. g. when nearly half an inch
of rain fell in less than half an hour.
The deluge and accompanying electri
cal display which swept the eastern
half of the city Wednesday afternoon
was the next heaviest Taken as a
whole the storms Of the month aver
aged rainfall far above the normal for
August precipitation.
The first signs of winter were evil

cordlng to the weather observers. The
first well defined storm area such as
is preceded with warm temperature and
followed by exceedingly low tempera-
lures, has made its appearance in the
United states and the change of sea-
sons, from summer to autumn, can be
looked Tor In the near future.
Advent of Winter.
Just below the Canadian boundary
line to the west of the great lakes a
storm center has set in bearing all the
marks of the approach of winter. In
past years such centers have never ap-
peaTed below the Canadian boundary
until late in September It indicates
an early winter, says the weather man.
As a result of this storm center tenn
peratures at Duluth and other points
to the west Of the lake region are ex-
ceedingly low.
Within another month Salt Lake may
expect to get its first touch of winter
judging from the general indications of
existing weather conditions.
The local forecast for today is for
showers and cooler temperatures, ac-
companied by unsettled atmospheric
conditions.

SALOONS TO BE
REGULATED NOW
New KaySviIIe Ordinance to Be
Stringent - Council
Has Meeting.
Especial to The Herald-RepubHcan.)


Kaysville, Aug. 21.-The city cOun-
ell had under discussion at the regu-
lar session Thursday night the pro-
posed new liquor ordinance, and at
the conclusion of the meeting the main
provisions of the ordinance had been
decided upon.
1t will be a very stringent measure,
and will provide for the strictest pos
sible regulation. 1t provides for an in
crease of the license from $500 to 5000
a year. after Oct. /. The closing hour
stead of midnight, as at present, and
the opening time is fixed at 6 a. m.
The ordinance provides that after
Jan. l, 1910, all pool tables, chairs, card
tables, dice speaking tubes, dumb
walters and anything and everything
that would tend to make a saloon a
Longing place, shall be removed.
Each saloon is limited to one bar.
The usual restrictions relating to sell
ing to minors insane, idiOtic or ire
spOnsible parties, and to drunkards are
carried In the new ordinance, and are
made more strict. new provision is
UhdJ no saloon shall be allowed to open
during any portion of an election day,
thus doing away with the gath ering of
crowds on election nights at drinking
places. The ordinance will probably
be passed at the next session of the
council.
New Waterworks System.
a decision was reached by the cOun-
ell that wood pipe Will be used In the
waterwOrks system soon to be installed.
The council also decided that the work
shall be done by local people so far
as possible, and that if any contracts
are made local men shall be given the
preference It is probable that work
will commence on the system within a
month, and if weather permits part
of the system may be in use before
winter sets in.
The council will next Thursday in
spect the spring on the Openshaw
premises, and probably other sources of
water supply that have been offered
at more advantageous figures and will
decide which Of several propositions
for water supply will be accepted.

TRIES TO MURDER
KILLS HIMSELF.
Lawrence Kavanaugh SIaSheS
Throat After Assault on
Mrs. EIma CrandaII.

Lawrence Kavanaugh, a porter en-
Dloyed at the Kenyon hotel, attempted
to kill Mrs. Elma Crandall at 143 Social
Hall avenue yesterday afternoon, and
then committed suicide with the razor
he had used in his attack on Mrs. Gran
dall. 1t is believed that KavanaUgh
was mentally unbalanced, and his crime
followed an accusation of rObbing her
made by Mrs. Crandau and his Unsuc-
cessful attempts to make love to the
woman whom he tried to kill.
Kavanaugh had been rooming at the
house occupied by Mrs. CTandalI for
some time, and last Wednesday the
house in Social Hall avenue was robbed.
Mrs. Crandall lost $40, which was taken
from her trunk, and she accused her
roOmer of the theft, although Kava
naugh said he had lost S22 at the same
time. This accusation was made Fri
day night, and soon afterwards Kava-
naUgh made advances which alarmed
Mrs. Crandall
Yesterday afternoon, while she was
lying on a couch at her home, Kava-
naugh entered the room, saying: well,
I suppose if L have got to kill you 1
may as well do it now" and the strug-
gle began. The woman was finally
thrown to the floor ana KavanaUgh

wards and barely missing the jUgular
vein.
Slashes Own Throat.
With blood flowing from her wounds,
the woman ran to the street, calling for
the police. kaVanaugh returned TO his
room, where he apparently waited until
Sergeant John Hempel and Policeman
Charles Pitts arrived, when he slashed
him own throat from ear to ear and fell
lying as the policemen forced the door.
He expired before any statement could
be gained by the police.
DR.. c. N. Benedict and DR.. S. @. Paul
were called. KayanaUgh was dead
when they arrived, and they directed
their attention to dressing the wounds
Of Mrs. Crandall, after which she was
removed to the home of her sister-in-
law, Mrs. D. r. Elmer, $40 South State
street.
Stanley A. Hanks. acting coroner,
viewed the body of Kavanaugh and or
dered it sent to the undertaking estab-
lishment of Joseph William Taylor,
where it will be held until a search is
made for relatives.
Little is known Of Kavanaugh in Salt
Lake, although for the last four years
he had worked here at intervals, divid-
ing his time between Salt Lake and
Caliente.

DECLINE IN DRAMATIC MORALITY
woipcocK.

A great deal is being written in thls day Of the decline in the litera and artistic tone of the plays that are put upon the stage. 70 the same ex- tent there is strong downward movement in their morality.
 It would be proper in considering this matter to go back to the novels that are being turned out in an ava lanche from the press, because the plays that are put on the stage today arc merely dramatizations of the stories that make up the output of modern fiction.
 In what Is called literary fiction there has been a great change in re- cent years in what is necessary to please the popular haste.
 The people who once were guided by the critics have come to judge for themselves. and while the stories that are praised most by those who pro- fess to apply the taste of the literary standard only sell to the numbers of a few thousands each, those which are regarded as the baidest sort of trash run into the hundred thousand issues, and naturally the writer of real It. terature must be more or less morti- fled to find that 50 sew persons care 
 rank stuff that Is pleasang, possibly. millions Of readers and is filling the pockets of the panderers to the pop ular taste
 Some yeans ago the stage favorites were plays in which there was :. great deal of wild and daring adventure and 2 great deal of wrongdoing. but the doers of evil were always brought to

| justice, or even to more summary aetr!bntion.
 But the appetite for poetic justice is being dnlled and today there is more sympathy with clever and good looking criminal than with the innocents whom he has wronged, and no stage story is rejected because Of any strong flavor of immortality 1t may have.
 It 1t natural that tine blame for fhe decline in the character of the drama should be loaded on the manager, but it is doubtful If all the blame can be charged to him.
 The manager is doubtless governed by the box office receipts, and when T play pays that is sign that it meets the popular demand.
 IL would be foolish to attempt to force plays upon the people when they will not go 10 see them.
 A writer. who deplores the depart ure of the old stock company popu- larity. declares that even when there were no bong runs there was good all.around average.
 If there were no two-year runs, there were few failures.
 Also actors were content to remain with the same company. They did not. as they do now, put themselves un at auction.
 The result was consistency, har mony and satisfaction 10 an concern ed.
 One cannot fall to note one phe nomenon resulting from this over whelming selfshness of the manager, whose greed exceeds that of any known animal; people are rapidly los ing all interest in really intellectual dramas and are cnltivating taste for the vaudeville and the music hall.
 The only hopeful sign he sees in the modern management of the theater is that the competition among drar matic authors is so keen that high CT quality of humor and comedy is slowly becoming apparent.
 There would also seem to be a strong reaction on the part of educat- ed people against the poor stuff thrown at them across the boards, so that the uneducated may be dazzled by sensation and elaborate staging. all of which signifies nothing in point of instructiveness.
 It is doubtful if any such reaction has started in.
 The public appetite for trash and filth has not yet been satisfied, and only satiation to the e@ent of disgust will work any change.
 Crime and depravity seem to be taking hold upon every class of so- ciety without exception. and 1t has been said that there is little difference between the slums and the gilded cir cles save in the manner in which vice is served up.
 There will be no reform in the stage until it comes from the people.

Fitzsimmons instead of poor Jack Dempsey,
for Carroll was more rugged than the
Nonpareil and could hit like the kick of a
mule. But Dempsey wouldn't hear of 1t.
