BITTER letters
Will BE SOLD
AT AUCTION
by Latest NALL

NEW YORK-What are known as
Mrs. Lincoln's bitter letters are to
be sold at auction here. The collec-
ton consists of twelve letters written
by the widow of the martyred presi-
dent in the. years just following his
assassination. In some Of them Mrs.
Lincoln was almost historical in up
braiding congress for not providing
for her and in her denunciation OF
General Grant.
One letter, written in August, 1865,
asks a friend to try to sell the black
lace gown which Mrs. Lincoln wore at
the second Inauguration for two
hours only" in order to raise money
for the support of herself and her two
boys. The gown was one presented to
her by a friend of her husband and 1t
cost $500.
In another letter, dated December
so, 1865, Mrs. Lincoln writes bitterly
of the fortunes of the Grant family
as compared with her own, and de-
clares that General Grants services
to his country were certainly not SUI
perior to my husbands"

HULAHULA
IS REMOVED
FROM BOARDS

Hulahula Americana gave place last
night at Ye Liberty theater for a
flag dance. Art put on her stockings,
so to speak, and the little chorus
maidens who had wept because James
Post, the veteran comedian, insisted
upon them presenting the Hawaiian
dance with nude limbs, smiled once
more with something of their former
glee.
No more will they be asked to exc
cute the hulahula The pretty little
strikers, who rose up to denounce The
dance as too immodest for them and
indecent, have won, and hereafter,
during the remaining few days of the
Post engagement, they will be called
spon to present only the quite proper
lances.
The strikers agreed to remain with
the company, and Post has agreed to
remain with the strikers, and the
hula is not going to be hulaed any
more at all.

Tul birds of the world" DR.. Horna-

DR.. Hornaday mentioned as an
American case of bird destruction
that reported few weeks ago by T..
Gilbert Pearson, secretary of the
National Association of Audubon So
cieties, who found in Florida an an
initiated egret rookery and twenty
eight dead birds on the ground,
stripped of their plumage and the
young birds dead in the nest above.
On Laysan island, in the Pacific,
seven hundred miles northwest of
Honolulu, a Max Schlemmer, in 1909,
undertook to destroy five hundred
thousand wild birds inhabiting the
small island. After a band of Japa-
nese laborers employed by him had
killed three hundred thousand alba
trosses, gulls, terms and shearwaters
the United States government sent
the revenue cutter Thetis to the
island and arrested everybody con-
cerned in the slaughter.

ures recorded by local concerns proves
that all estimates closely harmonizs
in their average percentage OF yearly
advance, forming an undeniablo strong
testimony of salt Lakes onward

hand it Is safe TO say that the goal
OF 100000 in population viii be reached
and IN all likelihood passed by good
margin by the time the next govern.
ment cepsus is taken seven years hence.
The records of the auditing depart
meut Of tho Utah Light e Railway
company will show that more than 1900
new lighting connections were made
during the last year to new dwellings
occupied by new residents, and that be-
tween 1910 and 1912 thero was an IN
crease of 2426 lighting connections for
new resident users. 1t is carefully and
conservatively figured In the records
that the increase in new resident users
alone at the close Of 1912 was easily
II per cent over the year 1910. On this
basis, then, the average yearly increase
was 81 per cent.
