MAUDE ADAMS.

Charles FrOhman will present Maude
Adams at the Salt Lake theatre, Thurs
day evening, in ]. NJ. Barrie's Comedv,
What Every Woman Knows. This
simple announcement will awaken an
ticipatiOns of pleasure in the minds
of countless theatregoers. 1t seems
late in the day TO speak of Miss Adams
as being the most popular player in
this country. Reams of white paper
have been covered with eulogistlc es-
says that have lauded the personality
of the actress, her charm, her manner
and that innate something which II has
for so long been the fashion to desig-
nate. for the want of a better term, s
personal ma gnetism. Without entering
on a dissertation on the qualities which
have made for Miss Adams success,
there is no gainsaying that she stands
in class by herself. Charles Frohman
has said of her that she is the one stage
personality, within his experience, that
has a following that is absolutely loyal
to her in all that she undertakes. The
play ran for five months in New York
last season and was again seen there
during the holiday season. While the
second engagement OF the comedy in
Chicago could not have been more sue
cessful than the first one, it differed
in this particuiar-tne houses were sold
out in much shorter time than they
were for the performances Of the first
visit The original cast is to be seen
in the presentation of the play here.
The sale of seats opens at the box Of

RAIN AND HAIL STORM
PE[TS CITIES OF KANSAS
General Unpleasantness Reaches the
Proportions of Tornado
in Spots.

Kansas City, May 1.-Severe rain
and wind storms, reaching almost to
tornado proportions at some points. are
reported from towns in eastern and
central Kansas and western Missouri
tonight. What is described as a small
tornado swept over EmpOrid, Kansas,
cutting off telephone and telegraph
service The extent of the damage in
that section is not known.
MIA limited, on the Santa Fe, on ar
rival at Topeka, reported a violent hail
storm at Neva, Kan. Telegraph poles
were blown down, they said. A little
before midnight the rain and electric
storm struck Kansas City. The cupola
of the city hall was struck twice by
lightning, although no great damage
was done.

NOT MUCH WORK

Because of the fact that about half
of the members of the city council for

fight, there Will not be much to con-
slider tonight at the council meeting

been expected that there would be
some final action taken in regard, to
the A Campbell claim against the
city, but this will not be taken up
until the meeting of the city council

Thursday night-or, perhaps. tonight,
if the other business is cleared away
quickly enough.
Protests from property owners on
Seventh East and Twelfth East streets
will be before the council, demanding

promised more than a year ago. The

waiting for the piles of rubbish to be

couraging to the civic pride of the
residents along either side.
1t may be that some one of the coun-

action of the board in granting to the
Salt Lake Driving club the right to
open up a AALly -IOtl speedway III llO-

night denied the request, and two days
later the park board gave the right
TO the hOrsemen. This, however, was
revoked the next day by Chairman A
Fred Wey when he heard what a row

rather excited about the matter and

ing of the dividend, the speculation
turned conclusively to the side OF de-
preston
trade outlook has been gaining force
in the financial district for some time.
The high prices OF commodities make
the central factor around which TINS
feeling gathers. To these are ascrlbed
lack Of demand in various directions,
conspicuous in the case Of the shrunk-
en- agricultural exports and the cur
tailment of cotton mill productions
Enlarged requirements for money In
effecting exchanges at the high prices
are involved. Heavy credit facilities
are tied up in the holding of commodi-
ties out of the market for high prices.
A greatly expanded loan account by
the banks is due to this cause and to
farm land purchasers and to irrigation
projects
This condition is responsible for the
apathetic demands for bonds, and has
even induced some return of foreign
holdings of our securities to increase
the burden on the financial markets.
That movement, Joined to the ad-
verse foreign trade balance and the
urgent requirements facing the Lon
don money market with the approach
ing collection of deferred taxes, have
forced gold exports on a large scale.
Last weeks shipments of s14,500 900
gold to London have been exceeded in
one week only, in May, 1904, when pay
ment was made for the old Panama
Canal company bought from France.
The depletion of cash reserves of the
New York banks exhausted the margin
of the surplus and induced recall of
loans placed in the stock market. The
exigencies Of the cotton speculation
served to divert credit into that mar
ket The consequence was the heavy
burden of liquidation thrown upon the
stock market.
Another unfavorable faction was the
damage wrought to the crops by the
unreasonable cold wave.

horsepower each, making total OF
2 SEQ horsepower at full capacity, will
be installed
The power so generated will be trans

MACK RETURNS TO DANIELS.


splendid audience greeted Willard
Mack and his associate players on their
return to the Daniels theatre last night
after brief season at the Shubert
The play, "Heartsease," a pretty story
of English life in 1880, gave an excel
lent opportunity for the portrayal of
strong Character by Mr.. Mack. The
story deals with a young composer,
Eric Temple, whose opera is stolen
by his rival and produced under an
other name. The fraud is discovered
at last and the rival, who has also be-
come betrothed to the girl whom the
hero loves, after attempting the life
of the real author of the opera by
forcing upon him a duel at dead of
night, is forced to leave, discounted
and debased in honor, with the loss of
ali which he had sought to gain.
The play, which is essentially TO
mantle in character, was followed with
close attention. There are many
strongly dramatic points which were
made much of by all members or the
cast. Especially effective was the
scene at the close of the third act when
Eric Temple. the hero, accuses his rival
of stealing his opera and strikes him
TO the ground for insulting him The
scenic setting of the last act was one
of the prettieSt.
Miss Leone. as Margaret, brought
much of charm TO a simple character.
Frederick Moore, as Sir Jeffrey POM
fret, the rival of Temple, made much
OF q disaSreeable role. John willard,
as the elderly Lord Neville, James Rem
ME. as Captain O'Hara. and Earl PIN
gree as Major TwOmbly, presented
character parts unusually Well Rosa
Roma, as Alice Temple was pretty and
piquant The other roles were well
rendered. The play should be popu-
lar one this week, both from Its ro-
mantle charm and the charm Of its
rendition. Especial mention should be
made of the musical numbers which
were played during the scenes. There
will be the usual number of perform
ances during the week, including matt
nees Wednesday and Saturday.

FALLS TO DEATH
IN AN AIR SHAFT
Gus Miller Breaks Neck and
Back In Commercial Street
RoOming House.

Falling headlong through a Zo-foot
air shaft, Gus Miller, a Veteran shoe
maker. was instantly killed at the An
derson roOming house, Ga Commercial
street. shortly after 1890 o'clock last
night. He had been drinking heavily
during the evening, and apparently
lost his balance, falling over the rail-
ing at the top of the air shaft close
to the entrance of his room. In The
fall he fractured his skull and broke
his neck and back in two places.
Inmates of the rooming house heard
Miller struggle up the stairs to his
sleeping quarters about 10 o'clock. Ar
irving at the door leading TO his room
be found difficulty in locating the key
hole Falling against the door in his
vain struggle to unlock it, Miller was
heard TO call for help II evoked mer-
riment, and rOomerS within hearing
laughed while Miller cursed.
1t appears that Miller became tired
and leaning over the guard rail lost
his balance and fell through the air

brought out dodgers on the first floor
of the ToOming house.
Patrolman George Cleveland was
called into the rOOming house. He i'm

investigation and found that death had
been instantaneous
Miller had lived in Salt Lake two
years, working about Commercial street
