A neat tasteful dwelling costs uo more thau an unsightly structure resetubliug a sec-tion house or barn. Mr. Fred. Hale, architect, oflice 'JO Wasatch building, who hasjust located here, brings with him an extensive collection of plans and designs for modern cottages and larger dwellings; also photographs ot the buildings erected therefrom 111 Den-ve- r, Pueblo ami other cities.

We have known some of , them, even after such unfortunate occurrences, lo;go to church within a couple of hours and take part iu the services iu the most devout man-ner. The Times really thinks It is unjust to class any servant girl among the toughs simply because she swears when bho burns fier lingers. The Gentile .girls swear as much as the Mormons, under such circumstances, and we can hardly blame them, Wo think the Tribune has gone a little too far in this matter. If' the editor of that paper should burn his lingers, wouldn't he swear? Wo believe that he would. Then why so soveroly lash the poor Mormon domestics for indulging In a few profane utterances while suffering under the most excruciating pain? IN DEFENSE OF MOIOION SERVANT OIRLS. Iu an on the morality, or rather tho immorality, of this commu-nity, the Tribune of Wednesday made the statement that "it is au undeniable fact that the meu and women who eomo to this city for service from tho rural Mormon districts, where they have never affiliated at all with Gentiles, aro about the toughest class that ever came to this city from auy source," and to substantiate this assertion tho Tribune adds: "(iirls of fifteen will swear liko pirates if they burn their fingers on the stove." Now this is rough indeed. Can didly we do not think this Is sufficient proof to convict Mormon servaut girls of be-ing toughs. To bum one's liugors ou the stove is enough to make even a Goutilo saint swear like a pirate. Wo have known of Gentilo domestics burn-ing their fingers on a kitchen stove, and then swearing like a pirate, and veu kicking the stove over.

SALT LAKE'S BAILh7AD FUTURE, The Denver News is authority for the statement that the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul intends to extend its line from the Missouri river, to that eity, within cightecu months. The Rock Island is also to have a line of its own to Denver. This is good uews for Salt Lake, for it is a sure thing that if these roads build to Denver, they will event-ually come to Salt Lake City, and that too, sooner thau a great many people would expect. The Chicago, Burling-ton & Quiucy will also build to this city. That Salt Lake will soon become a great railroad center there seems to be but little doubt.- - The Chicago, Mil-waukee & St, Paul has already graded its track to Albion, Neb., 200 miles from Sioux City. Regarding this extension the Denver News says; Albion, t he polut to which tlio grading has beea finished,. Is mi a direct line as the crow would fly from Denver to Sioux City, and as a further evidence that the road will soon be In Donver is the fact that the line has been sur-veyed to the Colorado Hue, a distance of 'M miles. Had the projector of the Sioux City Short Hue Intended to build to Cheyenne, they could have saved fully seventy miles by lcav lug Albion to the south. No sane man will be-lieve for a momeut that a proposed transcon-tinental line would deflect from a direct course to reach such au unimportant polut as Al-bion. Notice.

A name for the process of travelling by au electric motor was asked by the chairman of the new Electric Traction company iu London, and such terms as these were suggested through the Times: To voltaic, to volve, to eleetri-pede- , to electro, to leclro, to dyuo, to morse, to telcway, to fare, to fluid, to galve, to clcctricit, to vect, to current, to blitz, to tilt, to burr, to buzz, to to trisso, to locro. Tho Scots Observer added this: - THK PASSIONATE ELECTRICIAN. Sweet, shall we volt it? Dearest, shall wo ohm Our winged way across the ocean foam? Or were It fairer to electrlciue (Or clectrato) our path to happier skies? What's in a uamo when all roads lead to Rome? Fairest and rarest, under heaven's high dome, Oh shall we squirm, or Watt, or electronic? Or, If you feel you'd rather not vollae, Sweet, shall wu volt? Heart of my heart, no fond and frolic tome But tbe great Times, that, moral metroponie, Bids us coulomb, or spark, or motorize! Aud n'iw 1 think of it, the bluo day dies; 'TIs time, M.Ik time, that we were niotlug home -- Sweet, shall wevoll? The city council is quite favorably inclined to put iu au electric police alarm system. It certainly is' needed and ought to bo introduced as soon as possible. It will bo a great convenience, and a wonderful improvement upon the present method. Take Notice. A special meetiug of the Salt Lake real estate exchange is hereby called for Saturday evening, May 3d, at 8 o'clock. Busiuess of importance will come up at this meeting, and all mem-bers are requested to be present. Mem-bers of the exchange only will bo ad-mitted to this meeting. By order of II. C. Lett, Attest: President. John Montgomery, Jr., Secretary. "There is such a thing as running loo rapidly into debt," says the Denver News. "Low taxes and no outstand-ing bonds is always a big card for any western town. Let Ogdcu wisely ex-pend what money she lias on hand, ami the veto may, after awhile, be regarded as a blessing in disguise." X. THK CITY OAS STOCK. If the city eells its gas Btock the best" bidder should of course get it, but in case this stock is sold the city should in no way promise or guarantee any exclusive franchise. Tho people of this city are opposed to monopoly iu public franchises of any kind, and furthermore we believo they are also opposed to tho sale of the gas stock. It is very valua-ble property. We understand that it pays a handsome profit to tho city as well as to the other stockholders. It is said that this stock pays a dividend somewhere iu tho viciuity of 20 per cent, which, as we aro informed, has produced a sum sullicicut to pay the expense of lighting the streets. If this is a fact, it is indeed au important item. Why should not the city con-tinue to hold that gaa stock and receive tho benefits of the profits arising there-from? It certainly will save to tho tax payer in the future, as it has In the past, a large sum of money. If tho stock is sold and tho money turned into the treasury or into some particular fund, tho tax-paye- will then be called upon to pay for street illumination, which at present, as stated above, is paid for by the prolits from the gas stock. Another fact that should not be overlooked is that tho gas stock is bound to increase iu value with tho growth of tho city. The couucil can not act too carefully in this business. The location of the temporary post-offic- e will, no doubt, cause a bitter light for the prize. Tlio contest is now going on in Washington. Mr. Hickctts, rep-resenting the east side location, aud Mr. Pat Lanuau, in behalf of the west side, aro now at the national capital, pulling aud hauling fur their respective interests. ir is to bo hoped that the carpenters' Blriko in this city will soon bo settled. Salt Lake cannot afford to suffer any delay iu the building movement. Tho carpenters havo struck, not for eight hours a day or higher wages, but to compel the bosses and contractors to reeoguize the union aud not to employ any but union men. With the carpen-ters it is a matter of principle aud tho employers can afford to concede to their demand. This concession will be to their Interest, as well as to the inter-A- t of Salt Lake generally. MAY MIKTH. There is a good deal of strikiug news just now." Pittsburg Chronicle.

Johnnie learns something "Why de they call that Lmd tho Cherokee strip, papa?" "Because it was stripped from the Cherokee." New York Commer-cial. The Marquis de Mores who is kick-ing up a rumpus in France, is the same liery gentleman who created somewhat of a sensation in this country a few yqai'8 ago. He was extensively engaged in cattle-raisin- busiuess iu Dakota, aud becoming involved iu a quarrel with some cowboys ho turned his revolver louse and killed one or two of them. He,, was. tried and acquitted. The marquis is iiow charged with being oho of a party of royalist conspirators to place tho Due d'Orleaus on tho imaginary throne of F'rauee. STREET CAR BAILS. The rail that is used by the street car company in Salt Lake will have to be replaced sooner or later with one that Is adapted to paved streets. The best rail anywhere iu use is a rail, laid even, with the pavement, con-taining a groove about seven-eighth- s of an inch iu width and of the same depth This groove is too narrow to entrap the tire of any wheel, and tho rail otters no interference with tho passage of ve-hicles on or across it. This form of rail is generally used in Paris, Ber-lin, Loudon and" iu nearly all American cities having paved streets, Tho only objection any com-pany. can reasonable offer to. tho adop-tion of the flat grooved rail is a slightly iuereased first cost. In the end, how-ove- r, it is more economical because of tho reduced cost of maintenance aud the greater case with which repairs can bo made. In all extensions of tho lines of tho old street car company as well ' as upon tho tracks of all now; roafls, on streets likely to be paved, no other rail than tho flat rail should bo permitted, Tho city couucil should at once regulate this matter, and also provide that when the streets upon which there aro now railroad tracks aro paved, tho old T rail shall be replaced with the flat ru'l. A railroad is beiug built along the western slopo of tho San Juan country in Colorado, and it will probably form a link in a system connecting Utah with the central part of New Mexico. In this connection the Denver Republican says: "The line from a point a short distance north of Albuquerque to Durango would be another link in tlio same system. It would not bo dillieult to build a rail-road from Dallas to Grand Junction, nud at tho latter place connection could bo made with the Kio Grande Wes-tern, which runs to Salt Lake city aud Ogden." LITHOGRAPHIC STONES. It was staled in yesterday's Times that a species of stone adapted for purposes had been discovered in Utah couuty, seventy-liv- e miles south of Salt Lake City. If this stone is really suitable in every respect for lithograph-ing, tho discovery is a very valuable one, arf iirst-clas- s lithographing stouo is found in a very few places. The only quarry in this country is in Mis-souri, and tho stone from that section is not considered lirst-clas- The best lithographic . stones aro found at Kcl-he'u- u and Solouhofen, near Pappeu-heim- , ou tho' Danube, in Bavaria. Stones of poorer quality havo beeu found in Silesia, England, Frauce, Canada and the West Indies. Lithographic stoiies - are com-posed of lime, clay and silicious earth, aud are of various hues, from a pale yellowish-whit- e to a light buff, reddish, pearl-gray- , light-gra-bluo aud greenish color. Those of uni-form color aro the best. The yellow-buf- f oues, beiug software adapted for lettering aud trausfer; the pearl-gra-oues, being heavier, for chalk drawings aud engraving. They are found in beds, commencing with hiyers of the thickness of paper, till they reach the dimensions of oue hud several inches in thickness, wheu they aro easily cut, being soft iu the quarries, to tho sizes required for printing purposes. Tho stones aregrouudpl.mewith sand, and, when reij uired for tho pen, tho brush, tho gravur or trausfer, they are pol-ished with pumice and wator-of-Ay- r stone, and for chalk drawings aud grad-uated tints, au artificial grain is given by ground glass or tiiie sand. s Next Tuesday excursions from Den-ver, Omaha and Lincolu will invado Cheyenuo to Investigate- - tho boom of that d city. Many of tho visi-tors will, no doubt, make investments in real estate. At any rate, they will carry away favorable impressions of the place. By the way. what is being done iu regard to tho proposed excur-sion- s from tlio east to Salt Lake City? It is about time something delluite was being done. Much valuable time is being lost . Salt Lake should wake up, aud not let other cities leave her at the tail-en- of the procession iu tho matter of push and enterprise. CLIPPED and CONDENSED. The sum of $55,000 in gold coin was sent from San Bernandino to San Fran-cisco by mail a i'ow days ago as second-clas- s matter at 1 cent an ounce. An insurance company took a risk ou tho coin and tho bank saved $130 by using the mail. J. Edwards, of Hume, Fauquier county, Va., was playing with his broth-ers when one of them threw a grain of corn into his mouth, which lodged iu his windpipe.
