Show I . . THE SALT LAKE TIMES, FRIDAYNOVEMBER 7. 1890. 5 A DIVISION TO OCCDR. " The Democrats and Eepublicans of the Eeal Estate Exchange Have Some Sport THEY THE lOUHTAIN OP HJIT. Notes on Different Topics of Qan- - eral Interest for Inquiring IEealty - -- Headers. dences continues and new families who intend to remain here are arriving In the city every few days. The architect are busy and are new work right The along. curbstone along Commercial street is being placed in position. Since the pesky fly has been frozen out the painters are improving a ereat many residences in the city. The workmen are hurrying with all possible speed to complete their part of the contracts on the business blocks and residences. The transportation bureau of the chamber of commerce deserves the thanks of all contractors by appearing before the Union Pacific officials and asking them to run special lumber trains to Salt Lake. Tomorrow there will be a division in the exchange. The- - line which is to be drawn will in no way affect the sales of realty and matters will progress in their usual business-lik- e way. The split will be this: the democrats and re-publicans will occupy opposite sides of the room, while President Lett and Secretary Montgomery will see that order is preserved. Charley Schreiner will act as special police, and when his 0x11 fist descends, he will have the re-- 1 spect of the . whole outfit. We don't ' predict any bloodshed, and It is not necessary for the wives and sweethearts of the members of the exchange to be alarmed. The sun will go down as usual on the most desirable residence city in the United States, and the price of realty . will always be a feature of Salt Lake. When the exchange goes to Boise to attend the commercial convention to be held there on December 0th the citizens of Idaho will welcome them royally. Utah and Idaho are on the best of terms ;, and r the exchange knowing this will have their representatives polished for the banquet a few days after Thanks-- - giving: .This is a want A 5x10 with a 5 room house between' Main and Ninth East - and First aud Seventh South. Here's an offer A 10x!H rods, lots, block 84, plat B, fronts west; improve-ments are small house and barn. Chamber of Commerce, A convention will be held in Boise city on December 9th to consider the business interests of that stato. In view of the fact that so mnny Salt Lake people and corporations have interests in Idaho; this city and Idaho are mu-tually dependent upon and beneficial to each other, it is expected that the Salt Lake chamber of commerce, the stock exchange and real estate exchange will be invited to attend the convention. A communication in regard to this matter was received this morning by Secretary Frank K. Gillespie, and will be acted upon at an early meeting. The Utah & Idaho railroad meeting, which was to have been held last night, has been postponed until next Wednes-day evening. A meeting of the cham-ber of commerce will be bold next Tues-day ' evening. The transportation bureau will wait on the Union Paoific ' and ask the company to run twenty special lu mber trains from Oregon to Salt Lake, that the building interests here may continue. The New Bank or Commerce. The articles of incorporation of .the - Bank of Commerce have been filed. The business of the bank will be done in the east room of the first floor of the opera house building on Second South street. The officers are: President, Boyd Park; t, W.W.Chis-holm- ; cashier, S. F. Walker; assistant cashier, S. H. Fields; remaining direct-ors, William Mclnty re, George Mullett, John B. Farlow, L. F. Kullak, C. L. Hannaman, W. J. Harvey and E. B. Critchlow. The capital stock is $100,-$0- divided into 1000 shares of $100 each. Th Chicago Visitors.' The party of Chicago visitors in Salt Lake today are seeing the sights and pronounce the city ajseries of surprises. There are men of money in the oom-pan- y and if we are not mistaken they may be induced to make some invest-ments here. The city is new to all but two or three of the party and the tour-ists are charmed with what they see. How Realty la Bolllag. Few if any days pass without the sale of some real estate by the Salt Lake men who are engaged in the business. To be sure there are times when the buyer and seller desire that the trans-action be kept quiet and thus the public is not aware of it. The great number of new nouses going up show that I realty is advancing.

BUFFALO HUNTING CHASING AND LASSOING THE BISON ON THE RED DESERT. Return of the Larainle Hunters The lluf-fal- o at Bey Attacks a Hone The Captive Hie oa the Desert. Laramie Boomerang. J. C. Robbins aud W. Woodroffe re-turned last night from their buffalo hunt on the Red desert. Jack Hill, Frank Kelley and Bill Hopkins, who accom-panied them, did not return. They will spend the winter out in that vicinity. They have been absent nine weeks on the trip, and durl ng this time they captured two buffaloes, a and a cow. Unfortunately both of thoso animals died. They lassoed the first one soon after they reached the desert. It was one of a bunch of six. This animal was lassoed after a short run by Jack Hills. The party took chase after tho bunch and the e.xcilemeut commenced. Tho other members of the party succeeded in turning the bunch when Hill by an oblique movement made a splendid run and landed a rope over its head, lie accomplished this feat after the animal bad made an attack upon him. When he approached it the beast lowered Its head and started for his horse. He pulled out his six shooter and fired it off frightening the animal which ran again. Then he took advantage of the opportunity and made a successful cast. The other buffalo led the company a chase for two days. It was a wonder-ful run and a case of great enduranco hv horses, riders and buffalo. Jack Hill finally lassooed the animal around the bead and Robins secured a rope around its legs. Both the animals died very soon after their capture. They were in the midst of a desert, without food or water. And again it is said a buffalo never recovers from a severe choking from a lasso. Their death was a great misfortune as Mr. Robbins intended to have them form a part of a collection of Rocky mountain animals which, he intends to collect and exhibit at the World's Fair as a private speculation. The members of the company who still remain on the desert will soon turn their attention to the hills in that section for the purpose of capturing some animals. Mr. Rob-bins and friend Woodroffe, will not re-turn to their camp this winter. While they were on the desert they saw about fifteen buffalo. A FATAL DISCORD.
