RISE OF SALT LAKE.

The steady rise in the water level
Of the Great Salt Lake has reached
the stage which has brought alarm
TO the management of the Southern
Pacific railroad company. Recent
storms have played havoc on the
Lucin cutoff where the railway
tracks cross the north arm of the
lake and the abandonment of this
costly piece of road has become a
serious question.
/ In order to meet such an emerg.
ency, orders have been given to lay
heavy rails on the old Promontory
point line, by which route. within
the past few weeks, it has been nee
essary 10 detour trains.
On the extreme south end of the
lake, where the Western Pacific built
u grade several years ago on ground
high and dry, the tracks are almost
submerged and 1t is very likely that
twenty or more miles will have to be
higher up on the beach.
The Saltair bathing resort suffered
0 loss approximating $4,000 about a
week ago, when mountain high"
waves washed away $50 bath houses,
besides destroying the railroad ap.
proach to the great pavilion for sew
eral hundred yards.
indeed, If the lake keeps filling up
in the next four or five years as It
has done IN the past period of the
same length Of time, 1t will become
a serious matter for owners Of prop
orty between the city and lake.

ROYAL FUN"
KinQ Alfonso and Duke of West
minister Turn In Fire Alarm.

King Alfonso's idea of sport
was to turn in midnight fire
alarm at the Duke of Westmin-
ister's country house. His Males
ty and His Grace got the brilliant
idea that they would like to see
how each member of the house
party would behave in an emer-
gency.
An unexpected complication
arose. however, by reason of an
other practical joke which some
intellectual guest had perpetrated
in ignorance of the pleasant sur
prise the king and duke had pre-
pared for their friends. This per-
son had creased the handles on
the inside of the doors of several
women's bedrooms
At the dead of night the fire
gong's brassy alarm echoed thru
the vast house. Women in ex-
treme negligee, men who had
jumped into their trousers and
slippers by common impulse, hur-
ried to the central hall. There
awaited them the king and the
duke, both of whom enjoyed the
scene immensely. Through the
chorus of laughter penetrated
loud affrighted shrieks from above.
Half a dozen women could not
open their doors and, certain they
would be burned to death, were
crying frantically for help and
screaming Historically. Th S
rather dampened the practical
jokers' spirits, for the thought
came to them: Had there been a
fire what might have happened9"

Colorado f. Breaks Two World
Records.

Colorado E., the bay stallion
owned by George II. Estabrook,
of Denver, COL, smashed the
worlds record for three-year-old
trotters at the Grand Circuit meet
ing at ReaGville, Mass, on Aug.
81, by lowering the time of 2:06a
made by General Watts at Lex
ington, KY, in 1907, to 2:064.
BY winning the second heat Of
the American Horse Breeders
Futurity in 2:O78 he also made a
new worlds record for two con.
secutive heats. 1t was a most re-
markable achievement, as the wind
was blowing almost gale in the
face of the horses on the home
stretch.
Colorado E. reached the quarter
in 80 seconds, the half in 1:OS4
and the three-quarters in 1881.
With the pole Colorado E. led all
the way in the second heat.
William G. Bradley, of New
York, raised a previous offer of
$50, 900 for the three-year-old to
SIS, 900, but Mr.. Estabrook would
not sell if Colorado E., was to be
driven by any other man in race
except Macy, and Bradley refus-
ed to accept these conditions.

WILL NOT PRODUCE RAIN
Chief of Weather Bureau De-
CIareS In Opinion That Man
Cannot Produce Show
erS At All.

Willis L. Moore, chief of the
Weather Bureau, S more than
skeptical of the power of explosives
to cause rain.
Declaring that efforts t o pro-
duce rain by bombarding the skies
would encourage charlatans and
would be denounced by all eminent
physicists and scients, Mr.. Moore
has submitted an opinion to adj
jutant Ainsworth regarding the
forest fire situation in Idaho and
Montana.
He says extensive experiments
conducted by the Department of
Agriculture have conclusively dem
onstrated that rainfall connot be
created by explosives. Rain is
produced only by a marked in
crease in the vapor contents of the
air or by decided lowering of
the temperature, and man cannot
operate on scale to stimulate
these conditions.

BARGAIN-HUNTING
Advertisers Are The People Who
Usually Get Bit.

looking for something cheap IN
advertising, as with the customer
in all other things, most often is
the easy mark-gets bit. This is
the universal experience, and
strange to say, this is the class of
business men who are always
bowling about expense and high
cost of advertising.
The class of advertising that
does not bring the customer is
dear at any price. That which
brings results, the people to your
store, is cheap at what may seem
at first a high price.
Advertising does not sell goods.
1t only brings the merchant and
customer together. The sales
man, the goods and the price must
do the rest. 1t is therefore i'm
portant that an al tell the exact
truth, and that the merchant sells
just as he advertises.
ANY cut-throat scheme will kill
the effect of the best written and
most extensively published ad
ever printed.
1t is the experience of all firms
that have carefully and honestly
tried it out, that newspaper with
circulation that reaches the peo-
PIE is the best advertising medium
ever tried. 1t goes direct to the
customer, is read and reread, and
has no implied scheme behind it..
Money spent here is well spent,
because it benefits the home mer-
chant direct and helps build up a
home enterprise upon which the
home merchant daily relies to
fight for him and the interests of
his town and community.
The local newspaper is the first
interest to which the merchant
turns when he wants some pet
free scheme advocated.
He depends upon it to mould
public sentiment in favor of the
town and his interests.
He depends upon it to help him
in thousand ways, yet too often
he gives it no business, unless with
an air of charity, or unless it is
taken at a reduced rate, or a mere
song, apparently forgetting that
the newspaper has as much in
vested as he, and that its weekly
expense is much more than his
own.
1t is not question with him
HOW it survives, so it survives for
his pleasure and benefit. He pat
ronizes it only at a bargain, and
as if it was a public enterprise,
with a pensioned or an endowment
income, in some way mysteriously
received.
1t may not be intentional, but
most business men seem to forget
that the newspaper of their COM
munity reflects their own business
spirit, and that if they want it in
emergencies, and to be always ad-
vocating the best for the commu
nifty, they must do business with
it in business way-as if they
appreciated it's effort and infu-
ence, and not by negativing the
same by their business methods
with it.
The newspaper business is a
pure business proposition, not a
charitable one. Publishers want
business, but not upon 9 charity
basis. They give value received.
