A Reliable Man Informs The Times tha t Ealt Lake Dirt has not Dropped in Prices. The real estate esebange which is generally a center of considerable ac-tivity languished this moruiug. A few of the faithful, whom tho genial presi-dent so neatly complimented yesterday morning upon their tidelity, were on hand, however, and discussed personal or business matters for an hour. Among tho wants posted was the call of Mr. Hardy for a $4,000 house and lot in a desirable location. Mr. Hardy was not supplied. This fact led one of the gentlemen prescut to remark at Bome length upon tho ab-sentees. Many of the members, while not uufaithful to the organization, do ,if Baum In annraiiiiU tlin m.opRsitV Of IIUl OUl III VVy B't VVtUVV " J their presence at the meeting place, but since the cold weather have become chronic absentees. This subject formed a text for a lengthy dissertation by a steady attendant this uiorniug. Tli Iclin Which Never Cam. "I assure you," remarked one of the most reliable dealers in realty in the city this morning, "that there has never been the slightest decline in Salt Luke property. Some have asserted to the contrary aud have also claimed that it was due to local causes. Jt is true that the rough edges have been occasionally knocked oil some out-side property, which had been put upon the market and in the flurry last fall went at inflated prices. But gilt-edge- property in this city was never more valuable than it is today. Thu little ripple on the surface last fall was not a boom, That is booked, for a later date. My opiuion is that it is in sight now." The Chamber of Comm-rc- e. Secretary Gillespie this morning re-ceived a communication from a linn in Iowa asking if this city could furnish a good opening fora manufactory of flavoring extracts and like goods.

A BULLET IN HIS MOUTH Removed to the Oity Jail -- Dr. Meacham Takes- the Case in Hand and Traces the Slug- - A few minutes before 3 o'clock thi afternoon Jacob Bai, a cabinet maker in the employ of Barrett Bros., thrust the barrel of a in his mouth and pulling the trigger inflicted a wound that will, in all probability, re-sult fatally. Bai has, for eleven years past, been upon the stair of bis present employers and has been of the most sober and in-dustrious habits. If he ever sought the glass or indulged in any of the olio of vices the fact eluded tho knowledge of those about him.' Yesterday he re-ported as usual for work and during ,1... l,iwin trt ttllOW Sign of Kfupuudcncjr. Something was gnawing at his heart. As the day wore on the trouble broke its fetters, and producing a revolver he declared his intention of killing him-self Desperate, he would havo exe-cuted the fatal threat had not the book-keeper and another employoo of the establishment disarmed him. Ho re-ported for work this morning, but soon abandoned bis bench and sought the saloon where he sought to drown sor-row in the glass. In the meantime he bad seem ed another weapon and about noon sauntered into the Wave saloon anil back of the staircase leading to the second lloor. Settling upon a step ! llKn to Sulk . and took several drinks before the habitues were stunned by the report of a pistol shot and Bai came tumbling down, landing on the lloor below. A torrent of blood gushed from his mouth and bo laid apparently dead until sup-ported to a carriage and removed to tho bunk bouse down at the city jail, to which Dr. Moacham had been sum-moned, A few moments later the sur-geon arrived, and with considerable difficulty, ascertained that the ball had shattered the wall of the right jaw and continued upwards in the Dirertlun of thu Brain. An effort was made to obtain Bai's story of tribulations that had driven him' to the rask act, which he was per-fectly w illing to recite, but which in the shattered condition of his jaw he was unable to do. It was family trouble, he said, and tho legend was cut off there. Dr. Meacham was undecided as to the exteut of the self inflicted wound at a late hour this afternoon, although the loss of a large amount of blood renders the condition of his patient exceed-ingly critical. To his employers the act was a great surprise. Bai has a wife and four children, a comfortable home and was apparently a contented man. His employers speak of him in highest terms and much regret is ex- - pressed at the bloody deed. i5Ki:virii:s. See Baker, SecSo,.th. for shoes.

IT IS A NEW DEPARTUEE Mr. E. H. Jenkins Interviewed Retrding This Firm's New Enterprise. When The Times scribe sauntered into the spa.c.io.us a..nd elaborate quarters ii- - nr. .,. makes of pianos and organs and . in my opinion a judicious pur-- chaser cannot afford to buy anything f but the pre eminent leaders, that are i presented to the public with the unan-- f mioiu approval of the profession, "la let me gay to the readers of The Times." said Mr. Jenkins, "the yi Warren mercantile company, realizing J , . that their facilities are such as to sup- - ; plv every want in a musical instrument v ; line and prepared to meet every ex- - f igency, are going to make a strong bid for a liberal share of Utah patronage, ! ij and we are going to get it; and you s s niay say, furthermore, that we are at all times happy to receive and enter- - tain visitors, to furnish accommodation . , for guests, to listen to performers and 4 to otherwise endeavor to make theiu ; feel entertained and welcome." now occupicu ny ine taneu tile company, whose warerooms have recently been removed from No. 10 Fast Second South to No. 78 West Second South, he was dazzled with the magnificence and splendor of the effect produced by the beautiful surroundings of tho interior of this huge establish-ment. "What do you think of our place now," asked Mr. E. N. Jenkins of The Times man, as he braced himself against a handsome upright Chickering piano and smiled pleasantly at the re-porter. "Words cannot express it," remarked the scribe, "the transforma-tion is a most wonderful one. The change may be favorably compared with tho transformation scenes in the famous Fanlasma or other plays of like character. "You see," said Mr. Jenkins, the polite manager, "our aim has alw ays been to carry nothing but the best makes and highest grades of piano, and organs, something that would be in accord with the demand of nur rauidlv increasing patronage, and, inasmuch as we had successfully ac-complished the foregoing, we were obliged to seek quarters wherein we could advantageously display the numerous makes of instruments which we carry, and I leave it to yourself to say how admirably we have succeeded. Our company," continued Mr. Jenkins, "was for years the most successful establishment in Cheyenne, but our field was too small for such an enter-prising firm to bind itself to, and we finally opened places at Park City, then at Ogden and eventually bought out Mr. C. H. W who at that time was the most extensive dealer in musical instruments ir. th-.t- t nitw Sliortlv thereafter we ven- - tured to Salt Lake and started in n small way to introduce our goods to people of this community. It was only a short timo before we began to realize that we were meeting with a repetition of our former successes and according we sought quarters more conveniently located, and where we could handle with more ease and dexterity the vast vol-ume of business that is pouring in upon us. We have worked heard for all wo have achieved and our efforts have been persistent and indefatigable. "Will vou kindly inform tho readers of The Times, Mr. Jeukins, which par-ticular make of pianos are regarded as the tinest and best and most sought after?" "With great pleasure," re- - marked the enterprising rustler, as he uncovered a handsome rosewood up-right Chickering and began manipulat-ing the glossy ivory keys in a manner indicative of much proficiency as a mu-sician. "The Chickering," remarked Mr. Jenkins, "is adapted to all cli-mates. The great variations in tem-perature during the different seasons of the year render it impossible for any but itie best pianos, made with iron frames, to remain uninjured. The or-iginal adoption of the iron frame by Mr. Chickering in the year 1837 was entirely owing to tho necessity of over- - coming tne euects 01 uie niuai of the United States. These pianos are unrivalled for their sing-ing qualities and for the harmo-nious roundness of their tone and have been heartily endorsed by such world renowned artists as Fran. Liszt, (rottschalk, Boscowitz, Steven Heller and many others. "There are, however, many other fa-mous artists who prefer pianos of other manufacture," continued .Mr. Jenkins, for instance thu Knabe has received flattering endorsements and approvals from such noted plavers as Fannie Bloomlleld Zeislor. Hans B.ilatka, Wolfshon, Minnie llatick, Clara Louise Kellogg, Lucca and others of equal fame." "Then," said Mr Jenkins, comes the worm renouneu necKer which, by years of unremitting effort 011 the part of its manufacturers, has made a wonderful showing within tho past few years, and now comes to the front as a lively competitor of all other makes, This piano is much sought after not merely on account of its excellent musical qualities, but also because its compact and symmetric form adapt it best for general use "How do some of the other makes, the Chase' and the 'Fisher' for in-stance compare with those that have already been spoken ofV" "Well." said Mr. Jenkins, as he wheeled around on tho piano stool and began playing. "Annie Hooney" upon one of those instruments, "you will notice that these instruments have a very tine, rich tone, the action is very good, and altogether it compares quite favorable with other makes, while the Fisher is also a good piano and comes forth with many testimonials tlfcit are a credit to its manufacturers. As I re-marked before we carry only the best You A- - Invited.

THE HAlLJjOAD WORLD What Wizzard Jay Gould is Trying to do With the Union Pacifio Bailroad. HE WANT8 TRAFFIC FOE HIS Favorite Line, the Missouri Pacific at Pueblo via the R. G. W. and Colorado M.dlaadi Gradually the U. P. removal matter is being understood. The following is the effect of a prrbe run to the bottom and the result is for the public to de-cide. Mr. Gould's name is Jay, but he has more than sullicieutly proved by bis recent series of great maneuvers that he is not a jay In any other sense. The more far seeing people of Salt Lake are beginning to see that there may be several sides to the proposition to move tthe Union Pacific office aud shops from Ithat city to Ogden. The true inwardness of it all is be-lieved to be a smart move of Gould's managers to take advantage of the jealousy between Salt Lake and Ogden in order to secure the bulk of the Utah business for the Missouri Pacific at Pu-eblo via Kio Grande Western and Colo-rado Midland Vailways by prejudicing Salt Lake shippers against the Union Pacific. . It is said that Gould's interest in the I'nif.n lViiilii is insiirniticant compared with his interests in the Missouri Pa-citi- Santa Fo and is eastern connec-tions, and ho is figuring to divert the greater part nf the Western busiuess to his pet svstem. ' , The government's interest in the Union Pacific is about S.W.UOO.OOO. in interest-bearin- bonds, and it has been rumored that Gould wants to get the government to annul those bonds and make him a present, of the $.10,0uO.00tl. Mr. Gould is a modest man; he wants very little except what is contiguous to the earth. In order to induce thu gov-ernment to make this concession, it is claimed that he will use every effort to run tho Union Tacilic property down. If he succeeds in this scheme and tnrn tin- - Salt Lake business away from the Union Pacific, which is about Ho per cent of all the, Utah business, it will do much to weaken the I'niou Pacitic. Before he got control of theroad, the main line through Cheyenne was lit-erally blocked with traffic, and now that "has melted away somehow. D-iverted probably to his other lines. When Adams' Was president he was aiming at the throat of the Santa le by building a line from 'Frisco down through Nevada to Los Angeles. 'I he grading was completed for 140 miles, and when finished he would have had command of the transcontinental situa-tion, and could have robbed the Atlan-tic & Pacitic of nearly all its business, or at least have dictated terms able to himself. When Gould came in his first aot was to nip that scheme in the bud in order to have the Union Pacific more entirely at his mercv. The result of his latest move is watched w ith gn at interest by those who appreciate its mcauing. County Court. The following business was trans-acted by the county court this forenoon: The bonds of C. 'J. Schmidt of Sandy and Daulel Clays of Bingham for liquor licenses w"er approved and licenses ordered issued. The contract between the county and city of !alt Lake for the construction of a sewer to connect the county build-ings with the main sewer on Fifth South and Sccoud West was executed by the probate judge and county clerk on the part of the county. It is ordered that the clerk notify the sheriff that hereafter be shall include it. his bill against the county the claims of all who are employed by him to take charge of the prisoners in the county jail, but this shall not apply to deputy sheriffs for their services as such.

I ,i The Midland investment company 'i has received additional samples of ores ;i from their mines in the New Kagle i mining district, situated in the Snake range about twenty-riv- e miles south of 'J iwn creek. The ores were assayed ', vesierday and exceeded the most san- - r guine expectation. Mr. Hardy was all smiles. s; Messrs. Shell & Wampler have re- - ceived some float ore samples from I what is known as Nine Mile canyon, i about twelve miles south of Clifton which assays over 000 ounces of silver. J It is a sulphide silver ore carrying no lead and is the only ore of that charac- - ter so far found in that country.

The sale of the Extension and other j mining claims in tho West mountain mining district, by Georgo (1. Smith ( and wife to John A. Van Felt, was re- - f corded yesterday. The Midland Investment company j has three claims in the Fagle district, Deep Creek country. Prospectors sent out a few days since have sent in sam- - pies which have assayed so well that the company is confident its claims are of great value. Superintendent Haight of tho Queen of the Hills mine at Bellevue, Idaho, states that the development of the new ' mines io the vicinity of Bellevue Is rapidly, two or three pros- - poets have recently oecoine quuupium-ising- . Mine owners, however, must now contend against tho increased freight charges, which will prove a ser-ious injury to them. The stock of the Big Hole Placer & Mining company will be placed on call at the exchange next Monday. This company has been organized for sev-eral years, but it was only last season that tho property was made ready for operating. Since that time improve-ments to the amount of loO.OOO or $60.-00- 0 have been matte. The company is capitalized for a million and a half, par value of its shares. $10, and present soiling price in the neighborhood of 40 oents. About 600() worth of ore was taken out last season. line Florida Seceded AcalnT Mall anl Kxpresa. Indications are multiplying that the state of Florida or the governing power of the state, although no formal ordinance of secession has been passed by the legislature considers itself out of the union. For some time past, the most persistent and determined efforts have been made to nullify the laws of the United States. Officers of the national government have been mur-dered, run out of office, ortracised, threatened and persecuted. The au-thority of tho government has been de-tie- d almost as openly as it was by South Carolina in Things are fast com ing to pass when the writs ot the United States will not run in Florida. This verv day there is in Jacksonville one C. L. Morrison, who is legally post-master at White Springs, but who was driven out of that town with a bullet in bis bead by democratic rowdies, and who is still, even in Jacksonville and under charge of a special deputy mar-shal, in danger of bis life. Tho mur-derer of Deputy Marshal L'F.strange is still unpunished, and Cottrell of Cedar Keys, is a hero and a martyr in the eyes of Florida democrats. 'Further, there is no longer in Florida a republican form of government, as that term is used in the constitution. The state is run by a democratic caucus. No elections are held. Fvery vestige of home rule has been taken away from every republican town and every county. Fhe governor is an absolute autocrat, subject to removal by the democratic, caucus at the end of bts term. When collectors of customs are driven from their places, wneu posimasw-r- s are shot, when United States marshals are murdered aud no punishment fol-lows, and the public sentiment of the state not only condones, but secretly or openly applauds tho criminals, and when representative government bas been abolished, then it is time either to declare tnat the state where such things happen is out of the union, or to take such measuresbacked by bay-onets if need be as will bring it back into the union and restore the republi-can form of government guaranteed by the constitution of the Uuited States. King Kale Cood X ature. New Yoik Sun. A Pacific coast minstrel, Billy F.mer-so- n by name, once visited the Sand-wich Islands and delighted King Kala-kan- a with bis performances. The sovereign and the funny man became friends quickly, and the king asked Fmerson to the palace. A game of poker followed, of course, for if Kala-kan- a liked anything it was poker. Hu-mor had it that Kmerson woo quite a pilo from the Hawaiian ruler. That each held some strong hands was soon known in Honolulu, for the next night at the theater Fmerson put this conun-drum to tho end man: "When will three aces beat four kings?" The end man gave it up, and Fmerson explained that, he held the three aces, while the hand against him consisted of the king of clubs, the king of diamonds, the king of spades ami King Kalakana. Tho royal poker player was in tho theater, and. true to easy good nature, laughed heartily instead of frowning at the joke. - j A illmp of Novulttt Howell. Edward Hoi'k'a N 'W York Letter.
