If that isnt professionalism in amateur sports, you will never find any here. Zilligan', it is said, is going to the University tb "complete? mining course, it is not said, however, when he started that course. It must have been years ago, and nothing but some strong inducements offered the cockney of the varsity campus, have put Zilligan in the notion of increasing his intellectual: lore. The situation is made clear, when it is made known that Zilligan is employed regularly by the Western Arms company. This company sells foot ball paraphernalia, and the University buys the same. The company al-- r lows Zilligan a few hours each eay to play foot ball and attend school. It is not known what other agreements were made, that one is evident, however, by Professor" Holmes, . ft ft The foot ball season opens in earnest today with four games as a starter. The University and Ogden High School meet at Ogden; the Fort Douglas and Y. M. C. A. teams meet at Walkers field; the All Hallows and the Collegiate Institute elevens are scheduled to show up on the. old fair grounds, and the Aggies" and the local High School team will meet at Logan. The winners in the different contests will probably be the University of Utah, Y. M. C. A., All Hallows and the Aggie." As a solution of the water question, Attorney J, M. Thomvs and Harry Cole state that they own the rights to waters in Big and Little Cottonwood canyons, consisting of the following: Lake May, Lake Phoebe, which with a dam 35 feet in height and 180 feet long could be made a body of water 36 acre8 in extent; Lake Martha, which with a dam of 20 feet in length would contain 14 acres; Lake Catherine, about 10 acres; Dog Lake, of 15 acres. Twin Lakes, 20 acres, and Lakes Blanche, Lily and Florence, comprising 22 acres. Besides these they have eight lakes in Little Cottonwood canyon. These all contain water of a most excellent character. By building a dam at the site qf the old Davenport smelter at the mouth of Little Cottonwood, a lake of 45 acres could b3 made and from it the water, could be conveyed three miles to the mouth of Big Cottonwood and there turned into the pipes. This condition was at one time investigated by City Engineer Kelsey, who made maps and plats and took pictures of the scenes. It is likely that in the solution of the master the council will investigate. The rights to the water can be bought very cheap. Truth hears great praise of General I.

There are many and very bitter complaints from all over the city about the way the streets are lighted or rather po; lighted. For a mouth or two at frequent intervals the lamps have been out in all sections of the city and the lights in residences have been so dim twit they compare unfavorably with the feeble rays from a candle. It is time the Electric Light company was doing something about it. Philosophy of Fatigue. Some may be Interested to know that there is now almost a new kind of philosophy of fatigue. - Some speculators think man became conscious because his intuitions were slowed, up by exhaustion, so that the mind has to pick its way slowly and logically, instead of divining instantly as it used to do. It was the fall of man.

A Washington correspondent : of the Philadelphia Record, to replace In part the advantages taken from them by the abolishment of the canteen two years ago, the privileges of which have been sorely missed by the troopers. If the records for desertion and petty offences are compared this year with those of last year, it would appear as if the abolition of the canteen had other than a wholesome effecl upon the morals of the service. Last session, in order to provide reading rooms, gymnasiums and recreation halls which the profit of the canteen allowed, Congress authorized an appropriation of half a million dollars to establish amusement halls at the army posts throughout the coun. try, and a board of officers will shortly be appointed to visit the various COMMERCIAL NATIONAL BANK posts.

VICE-MES- CAPITAL PAID UP SURPLUS AND UNDIVIDED Describes Characteristics of Bulwer and Tennyson. I wonder if Tennysons hard fight, up Parnassus took some of the tender expression from his face; he had. something to say against the envy, hatred, and .malice that impeded his way; and, alas with temper! What would you have thought of his bitter satirist, Bulwer, if you .had been called upon to diagnose his genius at first sight? I saw him not very long before his death, and with all my admiration of his genius, and my gratitude for The Last Days of Pompeii," The Last of the Barons, and The Caxtons, I could not help feeling that there was truth in Tennysons hitter description of his personal appearance. A Timon you? You bandbox! oft and let him rest!" It was somewhat typical of Tennysons character and habits, this dwelling upon the foppery of Bulwer, for the laureate always seemed to be neglectful of hi attire. In appearance in his latter days he was not unlike Walt Whitman. He wore a soft hat and smoked a short pipe. A different man though, from Whitman. Where Whitmans face suggested a certain sensuous weakness, Tennysons was stem, strong and strenuous, " Writer onr REPUBLIC.
