fl& FOCATELLO. Ida.. Dec. 11. The Sun
E, day rest law, so called, Is In need of re
H? building. It requires a new siding and
Bp roof, at least, the foundation of the law
Wjjif.belng quite satisfactory. In other words,
WaP" there appears to be no logical demand
BK for a repeal of the statute regulating
By; Sunday as a day of rest Some, of
flcourse. oppose It who "keep" Sunday as
day of recreation, but&have no rell
K glous scruples. Others, the Seventh-Day
Bte-.A'dvcntIsts, for Instance, find a religious
BRl;obJectIon to It, because they regard St
BJ$?as a legal pronouncement against Sat
Kytirday, which they regard as the proper
w Sabbath. Generally speaking, however.
IKvlhe great mass of the people of the
fc state, and the constitution of Idaho for
Bk'that matter, recognize the first day of,
BJV the week as the day on which business
BJ; sliould not be transacted,
flf Incongruous Working.
Bf 'I was talking to a man of affairs here
today, who said lo me: "It Is ttrllclng
luf ( ly Incongruous to have a Sunday law
Bjf, such as we have today. For instance,
Jf I want to buy a razor on Sunday. I go
" ; to, the hardware store and cannot get
it because of the Sunday-closing law.
TI want to buy a piece of cut glass. I go
to the furniture store and they refuse
to consider a sale of the article because
v-of the Sunday-closing law. I go to the
k durg store and buy both these articles."
13 Another instance: A man stretches
himself after his Sunday morning meal
t, and says to his wife, "I will go to the
jij-clty and get some cigars." She asks
him to bring home a loaf of bread for
)i dinner. He returns with the cigars, but
f the law forbids him buying the bread on
i Sunday.
The church-going man and his wife
k wli-h to indulge themselves in some In
nocent Sunday afternoon amusemont
They walk down town and find that, be
a cause of the Sunday rest. law. the raov-
Ing picture shows are all closed. They
a return homo by way of tho baseball
K? perk and find a big game of baseball
I- going on. They pay their admission and
enter They see a man pacing up and
down berore the grandstand offering to
ftet on 4he retsult of the game. They
'& Bee his challenge taken. The umpire
J Anally makes a "bum" decision and pan
demonlum breaks loose. So. loud Is the
3" noise that a Sunday-school acrosB the
i street Is unable to hear their superin
tendent summing up the review of the
lesson
if At the moving picture show, all would
khavc neon order, silence and decorum.
H Besides, the pictures would have been
Instructive, and of that high order of
K. entertainment which the couple sought
They would have seen vivid pictures of
t things they were unable to see on week

Moving Pictures Are Quiet.
I: It is the opinion of all who have' to do
g with crime that "idleness Is the devil's
jfown workshop." The police officers of
if-the east regard ihc moving picture busi
jf ncss. so lately brought into popularity
tln the more populous east, as conducive
9t to a bettor order of things It give?
the young people something to do. at

modest kind, usually hnndclapplng.
jj There are approximately 3000 men who

usually tired in tho evenings, and do no

COUNCILDCPECTED
Mayor Glasmann Hot Under Col
lar at Action of the
Railroads.
Special to The Tribune.
OGDEN, Dec. 11. There will be mat
ters of considerable importance taken up
by the city fathers at their meeting to
morrow night, and something of a sen
sational order may be heard.
If Mayor Glasmann carries Into ef
fect a thought exprensed in an editorial
in the Standard this morning he will
communicate with the council regarding
the attitude of the Harrlman people in
relation to the building of a water main
under the tracks of the railroad com
pany . on Twenty-fourth street to West
Ogden. and he will also have something
to suggest regarding the controversy that
arose yesterday regarding tho placing of
garbage on certain property on Thir
tieth street. Immediately adjoining prop
erty belonging to the railroad people.
It is stated by the mayor that numer
ous courtesies have been extended the
railroad companies In Ogden and that
It does not come with very good grace
for them to quibble over trifling ques
tions of right of way for water . mains
and garbage dumps.
The sanitary inspector of the city ves
terday clashed with a special officer
of the Harrlman railroad about the
dumping of garbage, the result being
that the railroad agent preferred a
charge of trespass against the garbage
man. and, It Is said today, there will
be a force of railroad men at the gar
bage dump tomoiTOW morning when the
garbage man makes his appearance to
unload his wagons, the Intention being
not to permit the city further to use
the grounds for garbage purposes. Sani
tary Inspector Poulter says that he will
have the garbage unloaded there If It
requires the entire police force of the
city to do IU Mr. Poulter claims that
the city owns the ground upon which it
Is dumping garbage and that the spe
cial agent of the railway company will
be arrested if he Interferes with the
garbage teams In the morning.
It Is expected that these matters will
come before the council tomorrow even
ing for an airing. Some of tho council
men also declare that the Bamberger
company will come in for a little dress
ing down. They claim that because Mr.
Bamberger has employed the city attor
ney to attend to his legal business here
there is no reason why the city coun
cil should be Imposed upon. A motion
llkelv. will be made at the council meet
ing tomorrow night that Mr. Bamberger
proceed immediately to clear Twenty
fifth street, at the Intersection of Lin
coln avenue of building material and
piles of earth. This intersection, on the
north side of Twenty-fifth street, has
been closed by the Bamberger people for
Bdveral months, and. under the present
operations of the company, the street
will not be opened for traffic this winter

TRUSTEES TO HEW
BIEil REPORT
Appropriation Will Have to Be
Increased Because of
School's Growth.
Special to Tho Tribune.
OGDEN, Dec. 11. The board of trus
tees of the state school for the deaf and
blind -will meet tomorrow afternoon,
when Superintendent Drlggs will submit
hl3 biennial report of tho school affairs,
Mr. Drlggs says that the school has never
been more prosperous In its history than
It is now, splendid results having been
attained In the work of the Institution
in the past two years.
There aro fifteen inore students in the
school now than there were two years
ago and it is expected that the atten
dance will increase materially within
the next two vears. No deficit will be
reported by the superintendent, the $70,
000 appropriation of the last legislature
having been used ln a way to meet all
the urgent demands of the Institution.
As Mr. Driggs puts It. "the school has
lived within its moans."
It Is the opinion of the superintendent
that the appropriation necessarily will
have to be larger this time, because of
the increased cost of living and the In
creased attendance at tho school. The
only source of revenue the school has,
outside of the regular appropriation from
tho legislature. Is the product of an or
chard which furnishes almost all the
fruit needed In the school.
LIQUOR SUITS COMPROMISED
IN FACE OF ORDINANCE
Special to The Tribune.
PROVO, Dec. 11. Whe,n Henry Vin
cent, who is defendant In four cases on
a violation of tho prohibition ordinance,
demanded a Jury tri3l in police court
yesterday afternoon, the prosecution
tumbled to the fact that a fight was on.
and Immediately got busy, with tho re
sult that, after a conference with the
mayor. It was decided to accept tho
tender made by the attorneys for de
fendant to pay S400 on all of the cases
and drop the prosecution. Therefore,
when the oases are called for trial Mon
day morning Vincent will be permitted
to plead guilty to one of tho cases and
the rest will be dismissed, and the rec
ords will be made to show fines of $400,
and this Is to cover all of tho cases now
against tho defendant, VIncont. There
arc three cases not yet tried in the po
lice court, and one which has gone to
trial and the defendant found guilty and
fined S250 and sentenced to serve thirty
days In the city Jail, which was ap
pealed to the district court. The appeal
in this case Is to be dismissed and sent
back to the lower court, whore all of
them 'are to be disposed of as above
stated Just how the ordinance Is to be
got around in this compromise Is hard
to say, as It provides for a jail penalty,
and this part of the ordinance Is man
datory, not discretionary. It Is pre
sumed, however, that tho mayor will
pardon Vincent on the jail sentence, and
the fine of $400 is to be paid ln cash.

Precocious Youngster Connies Down
Town to Investigate Santa Claus

The litlue fellow couldn't have been
more than 5 years of age. and how he
found his way into The Tribune office
was a mystery and will remain one.
probably. He was not lost, however,
and seemed to be looking tho place over
with an Idea to buying it. He was quite
willing to answer questions, although he
seemed more Inclined to ask. and, after
an Interesting conversation, the reporter
who talked to him was satisfied that the
boy was not lost; that he would go
homo when he was through seeing
tilings: that his name was Charley, his
father's name was John and his mother's
name was Just "maw." Ho lived by the
achoolhouse In which he Intended to be
gin his education next year.
The newspaper man. as n sort, of fare
well question, asked Charley how he
expected to spend Christmas. The bov
brightened at once and needed no more
questions.
"Pa his name's John, but I always
call him pa told me that there wasn't
any Santa Claus at all and that what
they used to toll me about him was Just
a story," began the lad. "I felt awful
bad at first, but then he told me Unit
maybe I could havo some ChrlBtmas
presents anyway, so I didn't cry very
much.
"Then a man told mo that Santa Claus
wan down town. I knowed that he
wasn't, but I runned away and come
down town to see. Just for fun- What
did I see? Oh. lots of things.
"There was a lot of lion skins and
tigers and ,boarn and all kinds of skins
ai one place. I guess Toddy Roosevelt
killed the most of them, 'cninio pa sold
that he either done everything or told
somebody else how to do It The store
wasn't open, so I just looked in the win
dow. And I didn't look very long 'cause
I twis afraid that some of the Hons or
tigers hadn't been killed yet,
"Then there was a place where I could
see some deer or some kind of heads
with great big horns on them. I started
to go In so I could see thorn bettor, but
fl. man carried me outside the door and
tpld me to 'beat it." and I runned down
the street
"Then I walked a long ways.ond didn't
see anything but just shoes and clothes
and things. Then I came to a store
where there was an awful lot of candv,
but T didn't have any nickels and the
man wouldn't give me only Just n little
bit. I guess he was pretty stingy.
"There was some real live mice in
a window and I stood and watched them
a long time till a lady asked me If l
wasn't lost. I ran away then, iust as
fast as I could, until I came to "a place
where there was the cutest little puppies
I ever saw. There was some white ones
and some spotted ones and one with long
hair that war. curly, and It had pink
eyes. I wanted to take one of them
homo with me. but the man there said
that, thov were to tell. I am going to
have pa buy some of them for mo.
'cause he always does buy me lots of
things and I want a puppy more than
anything else.
"That was about all thure was to
see. Oh. yes, there was some nlco things
ln a few of the other windows. There
wa's a real automobile with a man In It
right up In one of the wlndowH, nnd
thero was a man that looked like Santa
Claus. only he wasn't big enough nnd
didn't have any sack full of things.
"Guess I'll go home now. What do I
want for Christmas? Oh. T don't know.
I want a lot of things, but guess I want
them puppies worse than anything else."
The tot rofusod an escort home and
trudged out onto the street alone, but
the newspaper man slippod a note In his
pocket, however, which he said was Tor
the boys "maw." and ihc telephone an
nounced, about two hours later, that the
boy had Just rolurncd.

cality have been selected, by locators.
During the week 25(50 acres were selected.
Salt Lake City Is well represented In tho
selections made to date. -Among tho
prominent Salt Lakers who have made se
lections here are Chief Justices D. N.
Straup and J. S. Frlck. Neighboring their
selections are the claims of Joseph E.
Tyree. F. C. Hathaway. D. N. Hughes.
W. H. Hathaway. R. 13. Wight, J. F.
Hathaway. L. F. Mammel and A. Grif
fin of Salt Lake City. These parties
were fortunate In selecting tho best sage
brush land to be found In this valley.
Tho senseless Indiscrimination is shown
In many of the selections made that char
acterizes a mining stampede. Regard
less of soil defects and certain apparent
physical drawbacks, some locators have
selected rocky, sandy, wind swept and
flood river areas, simply because some
group of financially ablo locators have
selected certain choice areas, and instead
of searching for land of comparative
worth, the excellently bad and indifferent
lands as far as listed show the post
marka of a claimant.
Tho matter of land seeking appears to"
bo as feverish and phlogistic a business
as Is the matter of making mineral lo
cations. In fact, old time prospectors
who long ago learned from experience
that a glittering prospect may not nl
ways havo much value, in tho fact of
positive information are squatting on un
listed lands and school lands also. Cer
tain unscrupulous locators have located
parties on lands of practically the same
status.
The status of the so-called Smoot lands
In this vicinity Is somowhat peculiar.
While the lands have been surveyed nnd
listed In the main, and the surveys said
to have been approved In Washington,
the plats aro said to be held up ln tho
surveyor general's office In Salt Lake
City for the purpose of making minor
corrections. When these plats are turned
Into the United States land office of Salt
Lake City entries may bo made for the
lands claimed. Many locators have start
ed to plow their claims, believing that
this will give them priority over other
claimants, when, as a matter of fact, tho
first claimant who reaches the land of
fice and who can comply with all tho re
quirements of the act will get the land
of the non-resident areas.
But it is hard to convince a land
seeker. Make a wagon track across the
desert and he will follqw It If it takes
him miles out of his way.

"The Beauty Spot" Is a corking good
musical play, the best of Its kind seen
here this year. There Is a Salt Lake
prima donna. Viola Pratt Gillette, and she
Is handsomer than ever, and her voice
Is better than ever. There Is a Salt Lake
tenor also In the cast in the person of
Franklin Foster, and he. too. was In per
fect voice. The fact that these two were
to bo honrd brought out a big audlenco
at the Colonial thoator Snndav evening
to -welcome, not only the Salt Lakers,
but to also greet Jefferson Do Angells
and his company
"The Beauty Spot" Is filled with pretty
music. There are solos, duets, trios,
quartettes, quintettes nnd sextettes, and
the quartette ln which Mr. Foster Is the
tenor was ono of tho best heard here for
a long time. Then there Is Do Angolls
with some exceptionally clever songs,
particularly "Foolish Questions." "The
Boulevard Glldo," and "I'm Going Crazy.'"
There Is Goorgo McFarlane. who Is a
magnificent baritone, and whoso solo,
"Creole Days." was splendidly given.
Viola Pratt Gillette novor sang anything
better than "Memoirs," nor "I Was
Dreaming." and she was encored again ;
and again.
Tho chorus is a largo ono and Is mnde
in of handsome and shapely women and
girls. The stago settings nre most beau
tiful and some of the gowns and costumes
stunning.
There are eighteen musical numbers
given during the play, and every one is
n nil. "The Beauty Spot" Is a cure for
blues It makes you forget your troubles.
Yon will enjoy seeing It nnd listening to
the music. H will run up to and Includ

Ing been thoroughly entertained by the
new week's offering. "The Prisoner of
Zonda." It Is an old plav. but Iho allur
ing rhnrm of Its InteroFl-holdlng qualities.
Itr, rapidity of development. Its royal
atmosphere and Its delightful human con
trasts, to say nothing of the rich set
tings of each of the four acts, still en
title it lo a prominent place In the list
of popular theatricals. Tho characters
arc well sustained by the principals
though the minor members of ihe cast,
those who aspire to be professionals anil
the supernumeraries, are decidedly mis
fits and at times positively ludicrous.
The story, written by Anthony Hope,
deals with a plot to kidnap the king of
Rurltanla. The .discovery of a young
Englishman who bears a twlnllkc rosein
blanco to the king by the king's' friends,
leads them to believe that bv substituting
the adventuresome young Englishman In
the place of the real king during the coro
nation ceremonies, ll will open a way of
shielding the king from his enemies-. The
Englishman, Ransendyll by namo. !s
crowned king, and for a brief poriod is
the real article. Keen Interest is added lo
the piece bv Rassendyll becoming deeply
Infatuated with the Princess Flavin, win;
returns his affection. Through tho stormy
spell of the bogus king's reign, owing to
the activity of the king's aspiring en
mle. h Is compelled to reveal his Iden
titv to Flavla, and Is suspected of not
being the real king by province'!; peace
Agitators. Through Rassendyll's aid. the
Iclntr'n enemies are undone, tho young
Englishman Is snatched from his feast
of love and royal favor. The dividing
Mn between his and the prlncrss's station
ln life compels him to bid adieu to her,
which he dnep with the feollng that It was
hotter to have been a king a day than
not at all: hotter to have known and
loved the princess than to havo escaped
tiif pwum'tnnciMi 'i' maip known lo
each the existence of tho other.
Mr. Ingersoll heads the cast with his
usual careful attention to the roio Miss
Wheatley appears as Flavin.. Though
called upon for u small display of her
ability, her presence adds grently to the
pleasure of th audlenco. Henry Crosby,
as Colonel Sapi. Is the hard working
member of the cast this week and fits
snugly Into the part. Margaret Dills
has the difficult feminine rolo of the
play, displaying emotion of flnu quality
and naturalness, the portrayal calling en
tirely for emotional work Walter Sey
mour. J. David Harblln and several other
familiar faces appear in the cast. "The
Prlooner of Zenda" goes the week, with
matinees Thursday and Saturday, the
mid -week (Wednesday) matinee having
been changed to Thursday.
Henry Horton 1b a comedian. There is
no "if" or "but" about that. Horton
has a delicious humor and ho passes It
out gently but effectively. It is the quiet,
soothing kind of humor that makes folks
feel as though they had known him
for centuries. Because Henry Horton is
a clever comedian, and because his play
let, "Uncle Lem's Dilemma," is a charm
ing little bit, his number is entitled to
first montion in passing commont on tho
very excellont bill at the Orphcum this
week, The company which is headed by
Mr. Horton Includes alHO Miss Louise
Hardenburgh and Jefferson Osbournc,
who are capablo in their parts.
Heeam, Monroe and Powell arc singers
of more than ordinary ability. Their
songs are happily selected and Sundav
night's audience called for thorn time and
again. They also perform well on 'cello,
banjo, mandolin and guitar
Splssell Bros, and company do a great
pantomime. It Is a European product
and is well put together- The members
are gymnasts of the highest order of ex
cellence. The pantomime is really worth
while.
"Cinders," In which Miss Ida O'Day
and W. S. Northrup appear. Is a sketch
that hau opportunity for the display of
Miss O'Day's remarkable ability as a de
lineator of the Cockney. In addition to
Miss O'Day's meritorious presentation of
the character, the skit In not without a
lenson. The self-sacrificing lovo of a
char girl for a man In a high station
of life lo a bit of touching pathos.
Miss Augusta Close gives an entertain
ment all by herself. Her Imitations of
types are especially good, and her old
and new limericks made a decided lilt.
Hor spoken songs were also well re
ceived. Miss Glose. ln addition to her
ability as an entertainer, la a beautiful
woman and graceful.
Paulua Fforus demonstrated beyond
question that the slmplo xylophone is an
instrument capable of the most entranc
ing harmony when it Ib handled by a
mnster. And Florus certainly is a mas
ter. Classic music of the most dif
ficult sort was played by Florus and his
little hammers was easy for him. Tho
audience accorded him a well merited re
ception. "The Land Agent," by Paul Qulnn and
Joe Mitchell, Is a vehicle for fast and
furious passages of wit. The dialogue'
is clean and handled with lightning ra
pidity. There Is a laugh ln "The Land
Agent" every minute of Its duration on
the stage.
The Orpheum's splendid orchestra, un
der the leadership of Wlllard Welhe. ns
usual offered a number of bewitching se
lections. The klnodromo pictures were
good and. altogether, the menu at the
Orphcum this week ranks with any bill
that the house has? put on this season.
Beginning Thursday.. December 15. the
Salt Lake theater will have a muslcnl
comedy attraction of unusual merit,
when Charles Frohman will present "The
Dollar Princess." the Viennese muslcnl
comedy which ran all last season at the
Knickerbocker theater In New York City.
"The Dollar Princess" is the work of
Willner & Grunbaum. the famous
Viennese librettists, and it Is one of their
best efforts. While tho book is filled
with laughable situations and bright,
snappy dialogue, it Is entirely free or
vulgarity, not a single bit of suggestive
ness being found in the entire niece,
and no doubt much of Its popularity Is
due to Its refinement and cleanliness. An
augmented orchestra will be used to ren
.der the difficult score of Leo Fall. The
sale of seats opens at the box office to
morrow morning.
For the first time since Miss Lulu
GInser became a star she Is playing
midweek matinees. This she consented
to on account of the demand for seats.
She Is playing the leading role in "Tho
Girl and the Kaiser."
"Weeping Josephine" is the odd title
of the now Viennese comedy secured by
Henry W. Savago on his recent trip to
Europe. It is the work of Julius Englo.
author of a dozen other successful laugh
makers, among them "Girls." the play
the late Clyde Fitch adapted for the
American stage with such pleasant re
sults. The lachrymose Josephlno of the
title Is a sort of up-to-date Cinderella,
who finds something even in the brilliant
sunshine to remind her of sad things of
the past until tho events of the comedy
bring about a revolutionary change In
her views.
It was reported recently by Manager
Daniel V. Arthur, who Is directing the
tour of Dc Wolf Hopper In "A Matlnoo
Idol" this season, as he did last, that
the rofits of this favorite comedian have
passed the $100,000 mark. This Is ccr
tainlv a phenomenal record In these days
of high salaries, heavy railroading, stiff
royalties, etc., but It emphasizes one
fact, namely, that theatergoers will
patronize an attraction when they are
offered exactly what they want, and It
would seem that they want De Wolf
Hopper bevond all shadow of doubt. Mr.
Hopcr will appear In this city ln "A
Matlncc Idol" next week.
Worse than an alarm of fire at night
is the metallic cotiph of croup, bringing
dread to the household. Careful moth
