The railroad question is settled
and the main line OF the San Pedro
Los Angeles 4 Salt Lake railroad
Is to remain in Lincoln county. The
ST. George route was given up and.
apparently all other routes that have
been proposed to the officials of
the road as being immune from fu-
ture flood waters.
From the foregoing telegram, sent
by President w. A. Clark to former
senator Thomas Kearns at Salt Lake,
II seems that the line is to remain
In the Meadow Valley wash below
Caliente where it Ii proposed to seek
high line which will be safe dis
tance above all possible floods.
II is proposed first to direct all at
tention to the repairing OF the track

The view of rssuming traffic at the
earliest possible date and the opil-

first with the likelihood that the

tion before that time While the re-
constructive work is in progress, the
building of the permanent line will
go forward and 1t is expected that
enough of the high line will have
been finished by the close of this
year that 1t can be used when the
flood season of next winter arrives.

STABLE BOY MAKES STAKE

II you possessed draft for $500

And IL you were the hotel man who
received the draft would you pay

But II you were that barn man
would you take tae draft to the ba *
upon which it was drawn AMI get
the money and then disappear? Per-
haps you would.
These points, at any rate, are the
principal ones in suit to be field,
probably today, by William Mass,
Of Caliente, in the hope of getting
$495 back. For it was Mass who
first held the draft for $500. 1t was
sent to him by his partner, Ase
Church, who asked that five 500 bills
be returned to him for the draft.
MASS was in Salt Lake at the I'm
perial hotel on South State street.
When he received the draft, which he
thought was only for IS. he handed
1t over to the man behind the desk
to pAy his bill of IS. In the morh-

DELAMAR, New, March 2.-Now
that the people of Delamar believe
their town will be near to the main

the new line will come close to that
town, they are beginning to wonder
bow soon the "Old Magnolia" will

The Magnolia mine was the first

rich gold ore was found on the sur

that after paying wagon freight
across the desert from the mine to
Nilfrod, Utah, and thence by rail to
salt Lake, the returns were SO large

boys were rich

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. 1S.-Fa
tally wounded by two bullets from the
pistol of Adolph Cassau, second violin
ist at the Empire theatre, Louis Osten-
drof, manager OF the orchestra, and
widely known as musician, overpow-
cred lis assailant, and, wrestling the
revolver from his hand, fired three bull
lets through Cassaus head, killing
him, at the rear entrance of the thea
tre Ostendrof died at the Deaconess
hospital an hour later.
The cause of the shooting is said
TO have been personal Ostendrof dis
charged the violinist two days ago.
The audience was kept in ignorance
of the tragedy until after the perform
ance was completed. An early report
to the effect that woman and love
note were the causes of the tragedy, is
denied emphatically by those in q po-

Cassau, an italian. was gifted mu-
sician. and had many friends in ln-

DESIRE TO ENTERTAIN
Literary and Scientific Bodies, Also
Society, Wants to Have Him
AS Their Honorcd
Guest.

PARIS, Feb. 1s.-M. Lizard. vice rec
tor of the University of Paris, has
been advised officially that Theodore
Roosevelt will reach Paris about April
Ia, and that the length of his stay will
probably not exceed three or four
days.
The French government is anxious
to receive the former president of the
United States with the highest honors.
French society is prepared to lionize
him; the literary, philosophical, geo.
graphical and scientific bodies all de-
sire to entertain him, and the Ameri-
can colony would like to give big
banquet in his honor. But Mr.. Roose-
welt discreetly has allowed it to be
understood that he particularly desires
to avoid any appearance of ostenta-
tion, and that he will preserve, so
far as may be possible, merely the role
of the man of learning, in which ca
pacity he accepted the invitation to
lecture at the Sorbonne, extended to
him through Ambassador Jusserand
while he still occupied the white
house
MI. Roosevelt's visit to Paris, there
| fore, will be devoid of the spectacle
lar features which characterized ex.
President Grants visit here at the
time OF his tour around the world. Mr.
Grant, while not the official guest OF
the nation, was received almost like
a reigning sovereign. Mr., Roosevelt's
4 wishes will be carried out in the main
but the government has declined tc
/ forego the honor of entertaining him
and the eX-president has accepted the
| invitation of President Fallieres to be
his guest at a dinner at the Ellysee
Jusserand. This was arranged by
| Ambassador Jusserand, who will make
a special trip across the ocean to be
present during Mr.. Rcosevelts stay
The exact program at the Sorbonne
will not be definitely arranged by the
council of the university until after
further consultation with the ex-presi
dent. The council would like to ar
range one of it's famous fetes in his
honor, at which a Greek play woult
be produced, but it doubts whetheI

SENATOR DAVIS
CAUSES LAUGHTER
His Tirade on John D. Rockefeller and
the Standard Oil Company
Was Most Entertains
Speech.
OIL oDoR D1sTAsTEFUL
Said He Would Like to See a Pipe
Line in He'll With John D.
Burning in His Own
Oil.

4 WASHINGTON, Feb. 1S.-In con-
nection with the consideration of a
bill granting the right of way for an
oil and gas pipe line across his state,
Senator Jefferson Davis, of Arkansas,
in the senate, engaged in heated
denunciation of the Standard Oil
company and John D. Rockefeller. The
bill passed with only Davis vote i'll
opposition. Davis accused Owen, #
Oklahoma, sponsor of the bill, with
business connection with the STAN
dard Oil company and contended that
the admission of a pipe line into
Arkansas would violate the antitrust
laws of his state. Saying that hell was
the only place he would be willing to
see the Standard Oil company's pipes
enter, he added that he also would be
glad to see Rockefeller "incinerated
in the flames caused by his own oil"
Owen denied all connection with
the Standard Oil company, and said:
'The impudent speech the senator
from Arkansas delivered has no foun-
dation in fact
"The senator acts like he is inter
ested,' answered Davis. He talks
like he is interested. BY jinks, / be-
lieve he is Interested
Owen, replying, said the opinion OF
Davis was utterly worthless.
q think Cod" answered Davis
that have never made an exhibi.
tion in favor of the Standard Oil
company. H went on to say. that
oil did not smell good to him and that
he did not like 1t" and exclaimed
sonorously, Before God, had rather
have my right hand forget its cum
ming. my tongue c'eave to the roof oi
my mouth and the mother who lore
me disown me, than to appear here
as an advocate of IN a concern"
Here there was long pause, dur
ing which the senate laughed. Davis
said he was in earnest. Some OF the
senators laughed.
Let each senator vote as his con
science Dictates" exclaimed Davis
"Let the blood be upon YOU
