MODERN BUILDING
IS TO Be ERECTED
United Cigar Stores Co. to Put
Up $4,000 Structure
on Main Street.

Two unpretentiOus business structures
near the corner of Main and Third
South streets will soon fall victim TO
the housewrecker, and in their place
will be erected by the United Cigar
Stores company d modern building al
a cost of over 100000 A longtime
lease on this proposed building has been
secured by p. Mehesy, jr.. who, with
the other firm, will occupy the space.
Some time ago the United Cigar
Stores company secured a longtime
lease on the property just north of the
Cliff house from its owner, Daniel Cliff.
This property is at present occupied by
the Old Resort saloon and the Olympia
candy store. Yesterday a permit calling
for the expenditure of $4,000 in altera-
tons and additions was issued to the
company.
The building TO be erected on the site
has been designed especially with a
view to the proper accommodation of
the fur and millinery business of Mr.
MeheSy. 1t will be two stories in
height, and will have about forty feet
of frontage on Main street. The entrance
will be set we'll back from the sidewalk
line, so that there will be considerable
window show space available. On the
ground floor will be the principal show
rooms, though the second floor will
prove a close rival. The entire front
of the second story will be of glass,
thus affording excellent lighting during
the day.
One of the features Of the new build
ing Will be the installation of a large
vault, in which customers Of the estab-
lishment may keep valuable furs during
the times of the year they are not in
use. This vault is patterned after the
Idea prevailing in New York and Paris
A small part of the ground floor space
will be occupied by some firm, for
which the building would be suitable

a record never before made on any of
the Hartman lines. This means q run
ming time of fOrty-tWO miles an hour,
or, eliminating the stops, fifty-one miles
an hour.
While the section destined for salt
Lake reaches here two hours earlier
than heretofore. the northwest fast mail
is speeding 10 Portland and Seattle to
compete with the mail trains on the
shorter route Of the northern roads.
The reduction in running time will
place the Hartman lines on an equal
footing with the trains of the northern
route, and Will doubtless result in the
retention Of the mail-carrYing con-
tracts.
The government annually weighs the
mail and computes the running time of
railroads. This work begins on Feb
ruary 1 and continues for thirty days.
Upon its results hinge the making OF
contracts for the carrying or mail, and
since the northern routes have been
speeding up their trains, the Hartman
trains, traversing a longer route, have
had to increase their speed.
As a result of the weighing of mail
that is now going ON. il is understood
that the Salt Lake Route will lose its
mail-carrying contract with the govern
ment because Of its inability to run
trains through to the coast. This is a
considerable loss, but is unavoidable
The contract will either 90 to the Santa

GAS COMPANY PLANS TO

The demand for gas in Salt Lake has

FINDS new PROOF
OF LIFE ON MARS
Lowell Says Canal Has Been
Built Through a Desert

Chicago, Feb. 5.-Announcement
of final proof that the planet Mars is
inhabited was made by Professor Per-
cival Lowell, the Marian expert and
director of the observatory at Flag
staff, Ariz. to Chicago astronomers.
Professor Lowell announced that he
had seen and photographed new
canal, showing, he declared, that 1t
had just been completed by the Mar
tians, water had just been turned into
1t, and vegetation had Just sprung up
in hitherto uninhabitable part Of the
great desert which comprises most of
the planets surface.
Previous photographs of this region
made as late as last May failed to
show any trace Of the new canal. The
fact is that 1t developed between May
and September, when 1t was first OBJ
served.
Professor Lowell regarded this as
positive proof that 1t was artificial
and therefore that living beings exist
in the neighboring planet.

SEARCH NEAR
VIRGINIA CAPES
May Reveal Fate Of Missing
Government Tug Nina
SCANT HOPE FOR HER SAFETY

Warships and Revenue Cutters Con-
tinue Their Vigorous Efforts to Sc
cure News of Vessel and Her Crew
Possible That Latter May Have
Been Rescued by Some Steamer
No Signs of Wreckage
Washington, Feb. 15.-The search
of the United States navy and revenue
cutter service for the naval tug Nina
and her crew of thirty-two men Is
being continued with grim fidelity.
Not a trace of the little craft has
been found and the only ray of hope
is found in the absence of any reports
of wreckage in the broad expanse of
water from Norfolk to Boston.
Even this hope is discounted by the
fact that the vessel, being of steel
construction, may have gone suddenly
crew had time to launch boat or
displace a life preserver.
The fate of the crew is all mat
ter of conjecture and the hope to
which officials cling is that they were
picked up by some passing vessel not
yet spoken by the searching squadron.
1t is possible that they may be aboard
a foreign bound steamer and have not
yet been transferred.
The government is pushing the
search with all possible speed and
and will continue the
work until all hope is abandoned.
The navy department has ordered
the fast scout cruiser Salem, which
is searching the Virginia Capes, to
proceed to Winter Quarter and Fen
wick island lightships, little above
Hog island, off the Virginia shore, to
explore the waters in that vicinity.
The action was taken as a result of
word from Baltimore that the steam
ship Howard sighted the Nina at
noon, Feb. 6, nine miles southeast of
Hog island, which is just below the
Iightships toward which the Salem has
been sent.
At that time, only few hours af
ter she left Norfolk, she was heading
northeast. A gale from the north
west, with increasing velocity, was
tossing the tug about, and the sea
and spray were washing over her
pilot house. The Howard passed with
n eighth of a mile of the craft |
and one man could be seen on the |
bridge. She was weathering the
yale. however. and did not seem to |
iced any assistance at that time.
The plan OF Boatswain Croghan OF
he Nina, before he left Norfolk, was
o proceed up the coast within sight

made a statement to this effect to

ore he sailed, and It only increases

course she would have been heard

PUZZLED HER DOCTOR
Young Woman UnwittlngIy Harbored
Live Mole In Her Body

New York, Feb. 15.-For several
weeks Miss Katherine Purcell Of
Paterson, N. j., suffered pains in her
chest. The pain gradually worked up
in her throat. She seemed likely to
die, although the doctor was unable
to diagnose the case.
1t has now become apparent that
the cause of the trouble was a mole,
which Miss Purcell had apparently
swallowed when it was very small and
which kept alive until it reached full
size.
1t was removed yesterday alive,
but died soon afterward. Miss Pur-
cell, the doctor says, will suffer no
serious effects from her experience.
