THE EIGHTH WONDER OF THE
WORLD SUPPLIED BY EDISON.

A decidedly pleasing and most
marvellous entertainment will be CIV
en- at the Orpheum theatre, January
21st.
Thomas A. Edison was the first to
present moving pictures to the world
and he has now demonstrated his
ability to make those same pictures
talk, laugh and sing.
It can safely be said that never
before in the history Of the motion
picture business has anything met
with such generous appreciation and
approval as the Edison talking pic
lures. Practically every publication
of any consequence in the United
States has devoted columns to this
wonderful achievement. Exhaustive
magazine articles have been written
and the daily papers from coast to
coast have given large space and
prominent positions to this marvellous
invention.
The talking pictures are not limit
ted to their subject as are the pan
tomine pictures. for the voice AMI
other sounds are as faithfully re-
produced as the action.
In making up tbeir program, tho
distributors have provided s"bic''s
that will cause the audience to over
look the fact that they are witness
ing a mechari"2l production Many
theatrical stars have already been in
terested and will be shown ut fire.
quent intervals. Selection, from the
big broadway dramatic and operate
successes will be shown and plays
that are now produced by prominent
actors and actresses, In pantomiie,
will be produced in the talking pie
lures with all the realism Of gcn-
uine stage production. Notable men
and women of the world are seen and
heard as in life; sermons, dedications
political speeches and, conventions
may be seen exactly as they occurred
and with every sound and action pro-
duced. There seems to be no limi-
tation in@the future. and many people
have predicted. that with the advent
of the talking picture there would
be fewer large companies travelling
on the road and presenting shows in
one night stands, and fewer lectur-
ers and campaign orators going about
making speeches.

SUGAR COMPANY TO
MAKE REDUCTIONS

SALT LAKE. - General reduc-
tions of 10 per cent in all salaries OF
the Utah-Idaho Sugar company are
reported to have been ordered, either
to go in effect January or at the
beginning of the company's fisdal
year, March 1. The reductions, how
ever. it. is said will affect only the
salaries over $1,000 year.
Regarding the proposed reduction,
H. G. Whitney, secretary of the COM
pany, said Monday night:
"No action will be taken by the
executive committee of the Utah-Ida-
no Sugar company regarding the re-
trenchment policy which the company
must adopt during it's next fiscal year
to meet the new conditions, until its
annual meeting, which will be called
next month. The executive commit
tee will at that time make such re-
ductions in salaries, price paid for
sugar beets, beet hauling, freight
rents and all other expenses as may
be necessary.
Nothing, however, has been done
so far. T. R. Cutler, general mana
ger of the company, is in California,
and of course no action could be
taken during his absence"
The fiscal year of the company
starts March /.

YOUNG MAN IN
PAINFUL ACCIDENT
FRANK SWAUGER HAS LEFT
HAND CUT OFF in SAW MILL
Injured Man Rushed to Mackay for
Medical Assistance and Nearly Bled

Saves Him From Death,

Last Tuesday Frank Swauger, Jr.,
lost his left hand in an accident at
sawmill on the summit between
Little Lost river and Pahsemari about
three miles south of Charles Graves
ranch.
By some accident Frank was thrown
against the whirling saw, and but
for the presence of mind of his broth
er Floyd would have been cut instwo
the next instant.
He was taken to Mackay as soon
as possible, and nearly bled to death
on the way, but the wound was dres-
sed by DR.. Richards and DR.. Baker
at the Mackay hospital sAnd they
feel confident of his recovery.
These are the young men who had
to fight for life few months ago in
row with sheep herder, and then
fight for their liberty and their prop
erty in court. The sheep herder got
shot by his own gun in the scuff1e,
got a lawyer to prosecute them on a
charge of assault with intent to kill,
and followed that up with a suit for
heavy damages for the flesh wound.
The criminal charge was tried first
and dismissed at the hands of jury,
and then compromise was effected
to release them from the damage
claim. Swaugers hated to pay one
cent tribute" to the herder, but old
er heads advised them that they had
better give few hundred dollars
to knave than to take chances on
what jury might do. The case was
tried at Blackfoot at the October term
of the district court.
