Thi! ladies of St. Paul's guild, who hail been rehearsing their May festival lor thi! past three weeks, last night opened thi) doors of the opera house for its presentation, and a large audience rewarded their putient efforts. These good ladies ft re eertaiuly deserving of much commendation, not only for the great amount of work they have en-dured, hut for the very beautiful man-ner in which they decked the stage last evening with such pretty pictures; and it is gratifying to know that the finan-cial result w ill lie quite substantial. The effect of colored lights, lovely w o in e n magnificently dressed, pretty little girls in fancy costumes, and an equally hril-liau- t assemblage of spectators, made up of Salt Lake's most elite people, was duzzling and almost bewildering as one entered the dress circle and ga.ed upon it. Mrs. J. II. Vim! lorn represented the May Queen, and she was attended by a bevy of maids of honor selected with much cure, for their loveliness. Those were Mrs. Sheldon and the. Misses Hooklcge, Dennis, Parker, Conk I'm, Woodward, Saddler, Harkness, Koyal, Mills, Wilkes anil Humes. The fancy dunce were executed in perfect slyle and gavo much pleasure lo those who witnessed lhem. The ''Dance of Seasons'' was led by six-teen lil lie misses in pink dresses with green sashes. Masses of flowers almost covered the fairies' heads, and as they tripped irailv to the unseen music. in graceful measure of splendid lime, they gavo an ideal picture of the story-boo- lore. They were followed by an equal number of older girls, who represented "Summer," each with ropes of Mowers hung across and over the shoulders, 'Autumn" was symbo-lized by sixteen young ladies dressed in white with artificial autumn leaf trimmings. The Denhaller rilles, num-bering sixteen young gentlemen, gave a ' representation of "Winter" by a drill in their usual correct manner. All of these representations were greeted w ith much applause, aud enthusiasm. Bertha Sharp and Maud l'arkcr, two little maids dressed in Scottish costume, delighted the audience by dancing the highland Hiug most charmingly; and the sailors' Hornpipe was executed by Ella Atkinson very gracefully. She w as applauded lo tlie echo and returned the compliment by bowing and throwing kisses Willi niuch'sweetncss of manner. "Coining Through the Kye" was danced by Hi, Sharp and Mamie Sloan, two of the smallest of the little people, who retired amidst the plaudits of the audience. Forty members of the Spanish Man-dolin Club, in complete regalia, sere-naded the Queen by playing the "Merry Tenor" wall, which' thev re pealed in response lo an encore. Then came the great ball, which was partici-pated iu by all who desired. A gay scene followed, and the dancing was kept up until a late hour. There was a refreshment counter, presided over by Mrs. Cunimings, as-sisted by Mrs- - McCartney, Mrs. Pitts and Mrs. O'Connor; and Mrs. Steven-son, Mrs. Crearv, Mrs. Webber, Mrs. MoGill, Miss Parker and Miss Karl served coffee. One of the private boxes was used as a luncheon booth, under tho charge of Mrs. Macallam, assisted by Mrs. Sloan. Mrs. Barrett, Mrs. Mitchell and Miss Knowles. The entire festival was most enjoya-ble, anil those who participated felt that it was good to lie there. Airs. Annett was the prime mover and de-signer of the whole affair, and to that lady's energy anil splendid taste, coupled with untiring zeal and great executive ability, is due the success of the entertainment. The instrumental music for the fes-tival was furnished by Mr. Magnus Olson. KIIXKI1 IV A FALLING KOCK. George K. Taylor Menu With a Horrible Death. (ieorge K. Taylor, a quarryman, who resided at 201) South Fourth street, was killed yesterday afternoon at 5:80 o'clock by a massive rock, in Robert Crowe's stone yard, falling upon lnm. The yards are located on Fifth Wi s; between Third ami Fourth South streets. Taylor was "split-ting" stem in the quarry when the rock, weighing about 0,000 pounds, fell and crushed him. His neck was broken and his body horribly man-gled. His crushed remains were taken fo the West Temple street morgue, where Coroner Taylor held an inquest. The first w itness called at the inquest w as James Fr.i.ier, recently of Color-ado City. He stated that Taylor had come hero three weeks ago and went to work in the quarry. Witiiew testilied that Taylor was a Scotchman and had been in this country three years. He was 28 years of age and had money de-posited in a bank at Colorado City. In reply to the coroner's query as to whether or not the stones were care-lessly placed, the witness said: "I do not consider that any one was lo blame for (he accident, i us far as I know. A man employed in a quarry or work of that kind is supplied gener-ally to look out for himself. If I hero was any danger, however, the men were usually warned." The . next witness was Dan Dow ns, of Cairo, Illinois. He said that lie had been working with Taylor at the time he met his death, i'ust south of the Rio Orande freight house. "At 5:30 we were at work on a rock," stated the witness, "and Taylor was standing with his back to a big pile. I heard a grating noise, and when I looked up he was pinned between two big stones. I ran for as-sistance, and by the lime 1 g t back the railway men aud others, had got the rock oil' of hi in, but he was dead. I did not notice whether the stones were piled in a careless way or not, but w e have been working among them every day for some lime, lie made a gasping sound as the rock struck III in. It did not hit him squarely, or it surely would have cut him in two. The slone'niust have weighed about six thousand pounds, lie was pinned be-tween the rock we were working on and the one that fell from tho idle. I do not see that anyone was to blame in the matter. We never suspoelc.l that the stone would fall. It was lo my mind an accident, pure ami simple. I do not think he spoke after the rock fell on !iim.. Robert Crowe, one of the owners of the stone yard, testilied as follows; "Taylor was in the employ of my firm to work on the stone, near which he met his death. All precautions nec-essary lo the safi ty of my men are taken. I have no idea as lo the cause of the rock falling, and I do not believe it was moved Intentionally. I do not think the jarring of the jiassing teams would have any effect upon the rock which fi II. It would weigh about 01)00 pounds.' I usually tell the men what I want done, and lliey have their own method of doing it." He was the last witness and after the jury weighed the evidence a verdict was rendered to the effect that Taylor's death was aecideula'. Taylor was a member of the order of lied iiien of Denver, to which order tel-egrams were sent asking what disposi-tion should bo made of his remains, A Voyojo ill a Soiail Craft. A London paper of April 1 says: A rood deal of excitement was exhibited along the Thames, on Wednesday morn-ing, by the arrivel at Millwall of Capt. Snndsvall, a Norwegian sailor, who had succeeded in crossing the North sea in a small boat. The little craft, which is named the "Viten," is only 15 feet from stem to stern, with 4 feet breadth of team. It is coverod in with a kind of declring to prevent swamping by heavy seas, and it carries but one small sail. Capt. Sun dr, vail commenced his adven-turous voyage needy thre0 ,veeksj g0' starting from Chnstiania with the inten-tion of' proceeding to Edinburgh. All went well for a time, but bei-i- driven iomewhat out of his coarse by contrary winds, ho decided to attempt the jour-ney to London, although such a voyage in so small a craft was attended by con-siderable danger, particularly as the cap-tain had no one to assist him in the management of the boat. ' He made fair progress, however, until he was for some days again disturbed by unfavorable weather and was driven very much out of his course. Capt. Snndsvall also began to ran short of provisions, and suffered from fatigue, having to keep a sharp lookout at night, and getting only occasional snatches of sleep during the day. He fell in with the steamship Assen, bound for Rotter-dam, the crew of which endeavored to dissuade him from his hazardous enter-prise and invited him to como on board. The adventurous seaman, however, ex-pressed his intention to continue the journey, and having obtained a supply of provisions proceeded to London, safely reaching the Thames. A.HISEMENTS.

Returning from a meeting, they met in a highway. Jarnagin drew his pistol and almost at the same time Foster was ready. They fired simultaneously. Each shot took ef-fect, a ball entering Foster's right cheek and lodging on the inside of tho skin on the left temple, while one pierced Jarna-gin through just above the heart. They were both on horseback and their horses ran with them in the same direction. They continued firing until Jarnagin emptied his pistol and Foster had shot three times.

Marshal Tarsons Contradict the State-wents- of the Discharged Warden. Deputy United Slates Marshal be the new warden at the penitentiary. He was appointed to-day by United Slates Marshal Parsons to fill' the place made vacant by the discharge of ('upturn Amos. Relative to Amos' alleged interview in this morning's Tribune in which an alleged expose of Parsons' bad manage, liieut at the penitentiary is made, tho marshal in a conversation with a Timks representative, stated that the whole matter was absolutely false and without tho slightest foundation. The interview, according to the Trib-une, was had on Tuesday, but was not published until this morning. It was withheld, it is claimed, until Amos left (own and the paper says he left Wednesday for Columbus. "It's hardly worth whilo to talk about it," said Mr. Parsons. "It is more of a Tribune interview than one with Mr, Amos. There is no truth in it. The reason that I told Amos that his resignation would be accepted was for the fact that the uards could not get along with him. flis domestic affairs are what created the trouble. He was overbearing, abusive and cruel lo everybody around him, and not long ago a guard quit just because he would not tolerate Amos' abuse.
