What makes a character is well understood, though not generally exemplified. Person-ality is a peculiarindeflnable something, ex-pressing a distinct ensemble from any other; a kind of separata being, suggesting some rich, yet fleeting idea, and is not tangible, and hardly describable. Most people are plain, ordinary individuals, absorbed in 'the ordinary routine of living, whose mental horizon is flecked with a few stray fanciss of standard ideas of character and beauty. Complex expressions hare no meaning or sense to them, and they find it more natural to mechanically conform to the uniform cus-toms of an established conventionality. Character is the sincere product of lofty conception and deep sympathy. Personality is not; it is never a natural gift, but is al ways cultivated on soma art idea. It con-veys nothing real as character, it merely sug- - gests qualities of richness, of 6trengtliof power, that are transitory, yet fascinating deceptions. Personality has no relation to either good or bad; it is a tingle and sepa-rate growth, qualified by intensity and ter-ror of imagination. Every indiridual has personality, Jbut in a negative state. To be developed it needs the stimulus of an active desire for original expressions. It is the self-evolve-d language of one being as against that of type; in brief, it is an artilicial lan-guage which appeals to the senses and charms or ' repels, whereas character probes the heart with its direct sincerity. Personality has no moral elevation in iis influence, nor stirs the mind in active search for truth's sake, but touches and inll&ines the artistic seuse and kindles enthusiasm, which fades away at the first sigual of fail-ure. Great men and women possess either character or personality, seldom both. Abraham Lincoln was a character, Parnell a personality. A character penetrates the bosom of humanity, personality dazzles the eye with its halo of special light, but touches no depths. Character is universal, personality is self-limite- d; the former is un-conscious dignity, the latter conscious dig. nity. Both are rare qualities, aud distin-guish the favored children of maakiud. In looking over the long list of people we have known, few survive the wear and tear of Time's obliterating hand, to stand out clea against the background of life's changeful phases and command a tribute of reverence or delight. True, memories of many linger in our hearts, but only by ties of nature and affection. It is the common fate of every man to be forgotten soontir or later; he therefore needs the emphasis of a stroutr character or a striking personality to outlive the memory o his generation. Cnaracter lives in the memory of a people and makes the history of a people great; personality lives in the memory of an indi-vidual, anil in poetry, or rises on a canvas under the inspired hand of an artist. Jeanne d'Arc was a character who made a rich contribution to history; Madame Uecamier won faino on the slrenirth ot her personality; her beauty was no greater than that of many others, nor was she noted for extraordinary brilliancy. Christopher Col-umbus was a character, lie overcame by a steadfast purpose and great courage the ob-stacles reared by the superstitions and ig-norance of his age, and set out on a dark and L perilous journey over an endiess ocean, i with no star to guide him, only hi indomita-ble will; he checked mutiny by his faith, and found land, as he felt certain he would. He had no dreams of personal glory, only the noble desire to ascertain if the world wa not a greater and richer fpaco for man's habitation than was then known. He discov-ered anew continent,on which was built new civilization, greater and more humane than any he could have dreamed of; yet by his noble faith in the greataess of the world he laid the foundation stons for all this, and i today, after the lapse of four hundred years, his memory is celebrated and honored by the greatest nation in the world. Great names are wonderful attractions We like to linger over them with feelings of reverence, for it is the common instinct of mankind to pay tribute to that which is noble and benedceut. Yet noble purposes are not appreciated until the attending course of insignificant events have passed into obscurity. Popularity is the worshiping shrine of the ever present. It is the worship i of the mediocre at the feet of the mediocre ' and requires no individual indiscrlminatinir efforts. Popular men possess only a modi-cum of character and personality ; they dis-card original thought and expression as pro-ductive of useless conflict, and remain as negative as possible to cause no clash, no ) change, but sail gently over the turbulent waters of human wanU and demands. Sincerity Is the test of man's worth; it is the essential quality of a character, and the stronghold of personality. Sincerity despises Dopularity.for the latter has lost self-respe-and placed in its stead a vulgar conceit. Popular causes and men number legions and swarm the land .like grasshopper plagues, eating and destroying the germs that might grow into eternal benefits for man and his welfare. Character and personality stand aloof iu solitary s; one meditating deeds of heartfelt virtue;. the other dreaming of some subtle expression of power of beauty. All the grandeur and sublimity which ennoble and justify life, have their awakening in these small s, and illu-mine the grey level of the highway of hu-manity. Tha qualities that make a character are simple and unchanging truths; but ..those indefinable and magnetic causes that pro-duce a personality cannot be told in words, and require art to be interpreted. It 1 need-less to say that the cultivating of special ex-ternal habits, such as wearing a cer-tain color and flower, or indulging in a jbizarrie dream that has no mean-ing, other than a small caprice, make no personality, as recently advocated by a devotee of the beauty cult. Personality is the concentration of all personal gifts for the expression of those uncommon, beauti-ful or fascinating possibilities, yet which are eternally eluding our grasp. Salt Lake Citt, October 15. "' the whole entertainment. The costumes were very picturesque, the ladies never looked better and the grouping and posing were superb. Miss Zane and Miss Rookledga looked charmingly as Mrs. Adams and Martha Washington respectively. This has been a dull week so far as parties were concerned, for the "National Pageant" took up all of the time of most of the young people, and Salvini drew out the social world the rest of the week, so with these ex-ceptions this week has practically been a blank. The Cleophan club met as usual last Tues-day and enjoyed a very pleasant afternoon. Miss Young read a paper on "Greek Litera-ture." Miss Dwyer took "Naples" as her sub-ject and Mrs. James made a very clever con-tribution on "Pompeii." Mrs. Henry Sadler has invitations out for a reception next Monday from 4 to 6 p. m. at her residence on Eleventh East street, in honor of Mrs. Welles of Butte. 5 i Tomorrow at Christ church, New York, Mr. Edwin Milton Royle and Miss Selina Fetter will be united in marriage. Mr. Iloyle is an old resident of Salt Lake and lias lately been most successful on the stage both as a writer and an actor in his play of "Friends." Miss Grenefred Morgan left town Thurs-day morning for a trip to Chicago and the East. She expects to be gone six weeks or more. Mrs. W. n. Bancroft and Miss Marie Na- - on were down from Ogden Thursday. Mr. Mark B. Kerr of San Francisco stopped over in the city this week on a little visit to his brothers. He is on his way to Ecuador, South America, for a lengthy stay. Mr. 8. K. Hooper and Miss Alice Hooper leave tomorrow for New York. Mrs. "Whitclaw Reid would make a brilliant society leader at the national capital, in the event of her appearing there as the wife of the t. She is very well known on the Pacific slope, being the daughter of D. O. Mills, the Sacramento banker. Her early days were rpent at Willbrae, the lovely country seat of her father near San Mateo. The "National Pageant" has come and gone and it is safe to say that there was regret, on the closing night, by the different young people who took part in the different tab-leaux; for the rehearsals were all full of fun and gay conversation and were very enjoya-ble indeed. Mrs. Pope, under whose man-agement the affair was so successfully car-ried out, remarked after the closing per-formance Wednesday that this had undoubt-edly been one of her happiest engagements. She had nothing but words of the highest praise for all the efficient in the presentation. The young people of Salt Lake, she said, were very lovely and exceed-ingly quick at learning their parts and places. She had no trouble at all at any of the rehearsals in keeping things moving briskly and intelligently. Mrs. Pope was more thau pleased with the success of her engagement in Salt Lake and leaves our city with the most pleasant remembrances of the many people with whom she came in contact. Auf Wiedersehen. Cards have been received for the wedding of Miss Nina Thompson and Mr. Frank H. Barnard, at Newton. Kansas, today at 11 o'clock. Mr. Barnard is well known in Salt Lake City, where has many friends. Mr. and Mrs. Barnard will be at home after Wednesday, November 2, at their home, Elm hill, Moline, Illinois. Lieutenant Haekeney gave a very pleasant theater party Thursday to enjoy "Don Caesar de Bazan." The guests were Lieutenant and Mrs. Brown, Miss Rath Palmer, Miss barley and Lieutenant L. & Sarley. In box D the same evening were Mrs. Sprague, Misses Sprague and Miss Witter, Mr. Will Sprague and Mr. Dave Sharp. Lord Ennismore, Mr. F. G. Barclay and Mr. J. M.

Newton, jr., of Detroit, Michi-gan, is the ruest of his old college friend, Mr. Sam Park. They went down to Utah lake yesterday after some ducks and will be gone two or three days. There was a very pleasant hop given at Fort Douglas last evening by some of the ladies and officers of the garrison. The charming affair was held in Recreation hall, and was mpst enjoyable in every way. Be-tides the ladies and gentlemen of the fort, there were present a number from town, among whom were seen the following: The Misses Harkness, Miss Marie Allf, Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Caine, Misses Cora and Alice Hooper, Miss Ethlyn Webber, Messrs. Glen-dinnin- g, Max Smith, Will Lawrence. Sidney K. Hooper, George Westervelt and many others.

After "The Pageant" Wednesday last Mr. Grant night Hampton gave an elaborate lunch party in the green room at the the-ater to several of the stars of the evening's entertainment. It was a brilliant affair in-deed. Several witsy speeches were made by tiie guests. Services at the Jewish temple, Fourth East, between Second and Third South, will begin this evening promptly aw 7:30. Rabbi Jacobson will start his regular course of ser-mons and lectures with a discourse this evening upon Shakespeare' "Shylock." The public cordially invited. Several large theater parties are already formed for "La Cigale" next week. Miss Hattie Hamilton has for the past week been the ?uest of the Misses Young at their home on Eleventh East street. Mr. B. S. Young made an excellent Co-lumbus, and his acting was very good. - There could not have been chosen eight handsomer young ladies than those who so gracefully danced the minuet. . Mr. Grant Hampton and Miss Martha Royle share equally the honors as soloists. Their voices were never heard to better ad-vantage. George Westervelt, always good on the stage, won the hearty praise of his bearers as John Alden. Mr. Van Vechten made & big hit as the old maid iu tbe colonial kitchen. The stirring speech of Mr. Smith (before the curtain rose on the scencea of 1801 to . were greeted with great applause. His delivery and elocution were good and he made a big hit each evening. ' t The last tableau of all, embracing the ladies of the entire cast, was the prettiest of "IF I WERE FAIR." "Then she looked into her mirror." If I were fair! If I had little hands and slender feet:' If to my cheeks the color rich and sweet Came at a word, and faded at a frown: If ! ha 1 clinging cnrls of bum ish'd brown; If I had dreamy eyes slow with smiles, And graceful limbs, aid pretty girlish wiles; If I were fair, love would not turn aside; l.ii en paths, so narrow, weuld be broad and wide, If I were fair! If I were fair. Perhaps like other maidens I might hold A true heart's store of tried and tetud gold. Love wait on Beauty, though sweet Love alone, It seems to me, for aught raiht well atone. But Beauty's charm is strong, and Love obeys The mystic witchery of her say ways. If I were fair, my years would seem so few; Life would unfold sweet pictures to my view, If 1 were fair ! If I were fair, I Perhaps the taby, with a cream of joy, To clatip iny neck would throw away its toy, And hide its dimples in my chining hair. Bewilder'd by the mass of glory there! Rut now oh! shadow of a young girl s face; Uncolor'd lips that Pain's cold fingers trace. You will not .blame the child whose wee hands close Not on the blighted hud, hut oa the rose So rich and fair. If I were fair. Oh! jnst a little fair, with some soft touch About my face to glorify it much! If no one shunned my p resenre, or my kiss, My heart would almost break beneath its bliss. Tissaid, exch pilgrim shall attain his goal, And perfeet lignt shall flood each blinded soul, When day's flush merge into sunset's bars, And night is here. And then beyond the stars I shall be fair! - London Spectator.

The American Society of Railroad Superintendent 3Jeet and F.Ierta Officers for the F.usnins Year A More Exact System of Kallroad Mgnals Demanded It e a a. lis; ht FlaMb.es From Far and Xear. - An engineer of the Louisville & New Al-bany road, whose name has not yet been re-vealed, is responsible for the most novel World's fair scheme yet proposed. His idea is to lease a piece of land near the exposition grounds and build a railroad track of a mile in circumference, with another track inside, both track to be connected with switches. Around the track he will build an amphi-theater with a seating capacity for 30,000. On these tracks he would place two locomo-- tives. To close the show he would start these two engines in opposite directions and when at full speed the connecting switch would be thrown open and the locomotives allowed to collide. To make the collision more realis-tic he would have the engineers Jump Just in time to save their lives. It ia his opinion a real railroad wreck would be an attractive spectacle. He ssys that be can, furnish an entire outlay for $2,500 a performance about twice a week. It is his Idea to use abandoned locomotives, which can be bought cheap, and ha says that the beauty of the project lies in the act that this is an easy and profitable way to break the old locomotives to pieces ' and get the old iron. The engineer is still lookinjg for a backer. I Railroad Superintendents Meet. The American Society of Railroad Super-intendents held its twenty-firs- t annual rivet-ing in New York on the 10th Inst.

Muob Entered Thursday lc;ht. The residence of II. P. Mason at 173 Brig-ba- m street, was visited by a midnight me-chanic Thursday evening while the fsmlly were at the Unitarian social, but fortunately the visitor was frightened away by Mr. Mor-gan of Wells, Fargo So Co.'s bank, returning to the house. When tbe family left a low light was left in the hallway, but on their return they were astonished to fiud almost every room illuminated and everything on the lower floor topsy-turv- Papers were strewn about, drawers emptied of their contents and furniture moved from its usual position. Up-stairs had not been invaded, but had it been a golden harvest would have rewarded the expert, for all of Mrs. Mason's jewelry was within tempting reach and Mr. Mason's gold watch and revolver reposed calmly on the mantel piece. An inventory was taken, however, and the only thing missed np to date is a pair of opera glasses of nominal value. It is evident from the thorough manner in which the lower floor was ransacked that a heavy burglary was frustrated by the timely arrival of Mr. Morgan. JUDGE M'BRIDE HERE He Speaks Briefly Concerning: tbe Local Campaign. THE LIBERAL REPUBLICANS. They Are Simply Working in the la. tcretsts) of UawIIuis and Are Wast-ing Their (shot The Tariff th Great Issue in the East Harrison's Chances Better Than They Were Four Years As A Quiet Cam-paign. Judge John R. McBride, one of the old-ti-residents of Salt Lake, is in town visit-ing relatives. For many years the judge was one of the leading lawyers of this terri-tory, and during all that time he was one of the most active men in the Liberal party, He was a Liberal when victory seemed too far off to be thought of, and he remained with that party until that party bad-me- t its Waterloo, and the new" era of peace - dawned in Utah. Judge McBride believed in fighting a substance, and when there was nothing left but a shadow he saw the wisdom of a division upon national party lines, in order that the people of Utah might be educated upon tbe burning issues of the day, and prepared for the greater responsibilities which they must some day bear. Although no longer a resi-dent of this territory, Judge McBride takes a deep interest in it welfare, and naturally he hopes to see the grand old Republican party triumph here. To a Times reporter ho stated this morning that be had been travel-ing so much of lata that he had not been able to keep posted on general affairs. "Both of the national parties have lost all interett in the Liberal party, and the Liberal Republicans who vote for Allen ia the com-ing election will simply throw their shot away and assist the Democrats to elect Raw. lias. They must be blinded by prejudice not to see that." "How did you find politics in the EastT" "Well, the tariff is the great issue of tha campaign, and the people seem to have made up their minds upon it. The campaign is an exceedingly quiet one, but Harrison appears to have the best of it. The im-pression it that New York will ba the battle-ground, and Harrison's chances of carrying the atate are better than they were four years ago. I feel confident that ha will bo Judge McBride will remain here several days before going west. He ia one of the attorneys for the Northern Pacific railway, and his headquarters are at Spokane. He ia enjoying: excellent health, and Is glad to be back on his old stamping-groun- d enca saore. - ! J Royal Crystal Smlt has no eqnal. To Much Enginoer lag-- The Lemhi Placer company that has been the direct circulators of nine-tent- of the cash that caused the general prosperity of Lemhi county and Salmon City the past twelve months, will vigorously continue its construction of ditches to complete the gen-eral water system necessary to working its placer ground. The company is bound to succeed owing to the great extent of its rich placer ground; yet It is a true maxim that he who will not profit by the experience of others, must, blunder through until convinced of an error, is what Shakespeare would call an egregious as. We also regret to see any errors made by so worthy a company as the Lemhi com-pany. But we would say to you, gentlemen, you have had too much engineering; too much vermin will kill the dog.

Everything points to a continuation of tuccesbful development on all the properties. pilch specimens of cold float are being found all along the range west of the Salmon river near the Leesburg trail, where no one everlexpected to find mineral. ORDINANCE REVISION. Proceedings of tbe City Council in That X.lao Lmt Night. The city council resumed the Work of re-vising the city ordinances last evening. A discussion was bad on the section in the chapter , relating to ' misdemeanors, which prohibits the giving away or selling of mer-chandise by means of any chance or lottery scheme, but it waa finally allowed to remain unaltered. . Horn wanted tbe section prohibiting the profanation of the Deity eliminated, because the law was a dead letter, bnt it was re-tained. Tbe section prohibiting skating, hunting and fishing, keeping open of shops, saloons and other places ot business; of attending or participating in public amusements on Sunday, was stricken out of the ordinances entirely, the sense of the council being that it savored too muck of the blue laws. The keeping open of saloons on Sunday, how. ever, is prohibited by the ordinance on licenses. The city attorney and the committee on municipal laws were instructed to report upon the legality of conferring upon the members of the council police powers, and a section was added to tbe chapter making the carrying of concealed weapons, without per-mission of the mayor, punishable by a tine of $50 for each offense. The council will meet again this evening. - o The Colorado Midland Railway.
