sorAeaN NOT A GOOD USHER.
The Actor Was Willing Enough, But Hs
Couldn't Find the Seat Numhars.


From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
f. HI. SOthern may be a mighty good
actor and without a peer IN the interpre-
tation of Shakespeare. but as an usher,
on the other side Of the footlights, he
doesn't shine.
Mr.. Sothern was perfectly willing to
admit his deficiencies after % minutes Of
getting folks into the wrong seats and
later fussing about with polite apologies
for his mistakes In getting the mislocated
folks back into their right seats. 1t
amused the crowd which packed the Colo
NAL theater Saturday afternoon. even if
it did cause MIR. Sothern some embarrass-
ing moments before he retired to the
stage.
Ushers at the Colonial theater struck
shortly before the matinee performance
of LAS You Like it," Manager Nc
l.aughlin accepted the situation and
called OF his office force and a few
other available men TO fill the vacant
places. Some word of the ushers' strike
drifted back on the stage and Mr.. Soth-
ern hurried to the front of the house
and volunteered his services. They
were accepted. His mistakes were all
accepted good naturally. when his iden-
tity became known. and patrons OF tho
theater suffered no material inconve-
nieuce.

Relic for Perry Belmont.

FrOm the New York Sun.
Perry Belmont nae a trade which
pleased him immensely. Mr.. Belmont
received a call from William Burke. a
veteran democrat OF this city, who
reached into his pocket and drew out
a faded admission ticket he had used
at the democratic convention in 1872.
MIR. Belmont he said. that ticket
was given to me by your father. who
MAS the chairman Of the democratic
national committee. If you can let me
have a ticket for the convention l will
be glad to give you his
tickets are not so easily obtainable.
but Mr.. Belmont found one for Burke

sion in exchange.

AND O r

From Il purely academic standpoint
there is a vast distinction between eX-
ercise and work. and this is just the
season of the year when it becomes APP
parent. 1t is in the spring that the
friends of the tired business man Who
has the shattered nerves and unreli-
able digestion begin to tell him that he
should get out and exercise and get
his blood in circulation. About this
time his wife is cleaning house and
there are plenty of rugs or carpets
hanging out on the line in the back
yard just aching to be pounded.
1t doesn't occur to the tired business
man that there is enough exercise in
that back yard to last him for several
days and plenty more where that came
rom. No indeed. He pays 500 to
join q golf club and invests In a bag
of sticks n a cap and goes out to
play golf. Pounding a golf ball all over
a 1Oo-acre lot is exercise. but pounding
a carpet Is work. He will pay a man
to pound the carpet and will pay for
the privilege OF pounding the golf ball
himself.
Any man who does not think there
Is plenty of exercise lurl.ing about the
corners Of his own home should in
vestigate. There is no better exercise
in the world than chasing a lawn now
er up and down a corner lot. through
the virgin grass every day. but it isn't
popular with the shattered business
nan because 1t does not cost anything
to do 1t. II these business men had to
pay for the privilege Of pushing "a
lawn move up n down a golf ground
they would all be doing 1t.
The difference between exercise and
work is what makes 1t a pleasure to
swing Indian clubs In a gymnasium for
two hours and an absolute hardship to
ne obliged to turn a grlndstOne. En-

And sent his dart
Right to my heart.

And confidence supreme held sway:
No sort of fear
Did linger near.
The future turned from dark to bright

Devoid OF guile.

ADVICE TO LOVELORN MAIDENS.
1t is better to have loved a fat man
h never to have loved at all.
Don't grab him OF Just because he
wears a white vest. 1t isn't an in
fallible sign of aristOcracy.
What If he does work in q flypaper
factory? A man in that line of work
is apt to stick to his job.
A man whose ears stick out from
his head like the wings Of a biplane
is apt to be generous to a fault, per-
haps more generous to a fault than to
anything else.
II you are counting on getting any
pin money. marry q man who carries
his change loose in his trousers poe
ket. He may never nave very much,
but what he has you are welcome
to. Beware strong wallets.

Re: Official bonds in Utah.
Salt Lake City, Utah, Dec. >, 1908.
Mr.. David Matson, Ogden, Utah.
Dear sir: Since writing you on Oc-
tober 8. 1 have made a careful inves-
llgation relative TO the matter Of bond
luT state treasurer. and now beg to
advise you that our company. would
not care to consider an application
for the bond, or for any part of it
for several most splendid reasons
These reasons are not because OF
the officer elect, but by reason OF the
present condition OF the laws OF Utah
relative TO the state treasurer's bond.
My interpreta ton OF such law is that
the treasurer and his bondsmen are
absolute insurers of the public funds
nelong!ng TO the state. Ii my inter
pretation be true. you would be liable
as treasurer and could be called upon
TO return any funds misappropriated
Dy any other state officer. or in case
OF the failure Of the bank wherein you
had deposited your funds. or In case
YOU or any other official were held
: up and robbed ot state moneys, or
Where you paid out state moneys on
properly drawn warrants which were
Improperly secured, or where you paid
out funds upon forged warrants.
am Of The opinion that the laws
nold you 10 too strict Liability and
Tor these reasons alone | believe our
company would not care to consider
your bond.
Il would be more than pleased 10 dis
cuss this matter with you, and IL / am
wrong as TO my Interpretation. the
matter might be given further consid-
Grafton. Our local attorney, Valen-

The reply Of David Mattson, stat
treasurer, TO the foregoing letter is a
follows:
August 81. 1912.
Professor Joseph Merrill. 7S2 East
Twelfth South street. Salt Lake
City, Utah. Dear sir: In answer 10
your inquiry OF August 20. 1912, will
say that the state of Utah does not
receive interest on money deposited
In the banks Of this state, nor do I
receive interest, and further than
that. ] have not received any COM
pensation, directly or indirectly, on
account OF the funds so deposited.
When / was elected to the office
Of state treasurer. [ thought as you
evidently do that the state of Utah
shonld receive some benefit from the
funds deposited In the different banks.
|, therefore, took up the matter OF
securing a security company bond,
having In mind freedom from the OBJ
ligation imposed by soliciting personal
securities on my official bond, and
that, being free from such obligation,
| would be in position to dictate
Terms in the way of obtaining inter
est for the state upon the state de-
posi,s. | found that | could not OBJ
tain a surety company bond, for the
reasons contained in the following
letter from the American Surety com
pany, and was, therefore, compelled
to ask certain bankers TO become my
bondsmen. which they would not do
unless they controlled the deposit OF
Inc state funds
