OLD CHINESE THEATER
TURNED INTO A CHAPEL

NEW YORK, Sept. 2.-After quar-
ter of century as playhouse, the
Chinese theatre in the heart OF New
York. Chinatown has become place
of religious worship, passing into the
hands Of the rescue society
The society for years had chapel
near by. 1t recently burned out
About the same time the theatre lease
expired and the rescue society opened
negotiations with the owner to take
over the property. So one day not
long ago the Chinese theatrical man
ager awoke to discover that after sep
tember l the rescue society had the
lease.
The theatre has been remodeled as to
seats, but the decorations are the
same. In the cellar are the costumes,
said to be owned by members of the
warning tongs,
Since the last epidemic of tong shoot
inps began, no one cares to take the
responsibility of removing them.

SCHLACkS SAYS
REPORT IS TRUE
Denver & Rio Grande Will Be
Double Tracked, Says
Vice-President.
ARRIVES IN SALT LAKE
EN- ROUTE TO NEW YORK
Says That Future Prospects of
Western Pacific Are Most
Encouraging.

The report that the Denver g. Rio
Grande railroad is to be double tracked
between this city and Denver was con
frmed by G. II, Schlacks, first vice
president Of the Denver & Rio Grande
and the Western Pacific, who was In
Salt Lake Friday en- route from his
headquarters at San Francisco to New
York. "The work Of double-tracking
the road has been contemplated for
some time past" said Mr.. Schlacks,
and doubtlessly will be pushed as rap
idly as possible, Mr.. Schlacks, who was
accompanied by his wife, left over the
Rio Grande for the east Friday after
noon.
Mr.. Schlacks has been devoting the
greater portion of his time of late to
the affairs of the Western Pacific rail
road. The new road, he says, is doing
an excellent business already and the
future prospects are most promising.
Mr.. Schlacks is exceedingly optimistic
concerning the Western Pacific. Mr.,
Schlacks had conference with j. G.
Daley, superintendent of the Utah
lines of the Denver g. Rio Grande Fri
day morning and elso with other Off
cials Of the Rio Grande and Western
Pacific railroads In this city.

A STRONG ARRANGEMENT

Editor The Tribune:--1 am a "young
Mormon That means that ] would
like to know what is done with the
tithing; that / would like to see the
church or ruling authorities of the
church make some public declaration
misunderstanding new po)ygamy; that
| would like to see the good Offices In
the church and in church corporations
distributed according TO fitness and
merit and not held entirely by one
family and by the favorites of the
higher priesthood; and that | would
priesthood out of politics, and politics
out of the church.
must confess that the persistence
with which the members of the higher
quorums have condoned new polygamy
and either directly or indirectly pro-
tectcd, rewarded and advanced many
new polygamists, has shaken my faith
in the sincerity of the priesthood, No
new polygamist is censured in any man
ner. unless the fact of his polygamy
becomes public property, and not even
then unless some good cause FOR cen
sure on other failings exists, Well
known new pojypaiDleUS are hoiuiuS <
high offices in the church and in church
corporations at this minute. These
facts are known to the church. 1t re-
tains them in business positions where
they may profit on the people. | feel
that from a quorum OF polygamists we
need strong assurances that they are
trying to discourage new polygamy,
whether called celestial marriage or
any other name.
Then the tithing needs some explana.
ton. Our fathers and mothers took
everything for granted, We young
Mormons are not so credulous. The
city officers. the State officers and the
officers of every company or corpora
tion must account for the moneys they
handle. Why not follow this rule in

the church? All other churches account
for the moneys they receive. Here /
confess that my payments to the tlthlng
fund have been few and far between,
and are not likely TO become more nu
merous in the future. ] am burdened
with the partial support of a mother
who was impoverished by tithIng, and ]
feel that the contributions made by my
parents are more than sufficient for
them and their children, all things con
sidered
We should not presume that all the
authorities who handle the tithing are
honest. In fact we are constantly con
fronted by proofs of dishonesty and
graft on the part of men holding high
Office in our church In the face of
these facts we have the right, and it is
our duty, to ask for an accounting. If
the accounting is not given, il is be
cause there is something which those
who handle the tithiug wish TO hide A
general statement that the tithlng ac
counts are straight is not sufficient. We
should have specific accounts showing
facts and figures, receipts and disburse-
ments and all other proper details.
Another unpleasant fact in the eyes
of yon"1 Utah is the prevalence of ne
poti.' ID favoritlSm among the au-
thor The church itself and all the
socaiicd church corporations and church
enterprises are maintained by the
money of the Mormon people-presum~
ably by tithing-and the Mormon peo-
Pile as whole should have some repre-
sentation therein. The good positions
and Offices in the church and its institu-
tions and corporations should be dis
tributed among the able and meritori-
Gus young men of the church and not
be confined to three or four families.
To give all desirable positions to sons,
relatives and favorltes is the same as
a proclamation to the effect that the
church is composed of outsiders and
insiders and that no outsider need hope
to become an insider The answer that
a good Mormon cares nothing for world

damage to rolling stock through care
less handling of cars equipped with au-
tomato couplings.
"This rough handling is in disobedi-
ence Of the rules Of the road, but there
seems to be no way to stop it, said
Mr.. Miller. ''We estimate the dam
age to equipment, together with the in
stallment of safety appliances from
1903 to 1910. will amount to more than
$320,500. The hours of service and the
full crew laws have also added to the
expense of operating the railroad,
On cross-eXamination, Mr.. Miller de-
clared that the road had been econom-
ically operated.
"With the increased rates proposed,
the road will earn about $4,000 a year
more than it is now earning, but that
would not be sufficient to supply our
needs and would be only drop in the
bucket
