The programme will probably include several (elections by six member of the well-know- "Mando-lin and Guitar club," their iirst public appearance since last summer; Mr. and Mrs. W . II. Whitney, (the latter being a recent arrival from the east); Mr. Brandt, the tenor; Miss Ella Kvans and Mr. W. s. Hamilton in recitations. A Goblet of Lot. The "engagement cup" is a novelty that is very popular just now through-out the east. It may be of any odd shape or quaint design, and the very latest the young hostess ut a live o'clock tea finds to add to this idea (provided she is rather soutimentally inclined) is to have the picture of the favored young man copied on one of the rarest cups. A Fa nor 1 Hall. The fanrv dress ball to be given by the Misses Dollie and Stella Walker at G. A. R. hall on Friday evening next will be one of the principal events of the social season, and some maguitieent costumes will bo worn. About forty young ladies will, on this occasion, re-verse tlio usual order of things and choose their escorts. Taggitrt-Culve- The many friends of Lieutenant Tag-gar- t in this city will heartily congratu-late him on his marriage, which took place sexeral weeks ago. The bride wan Miss (irace Culver of Chicago. Several years ago, when Mr. Taggart was stationed here, his genial face was seen at all the social gatherings. Social Scintillations. Several Salt Lakers will attend the Kirmess to be held at Ogden in a few days. A card party of twelve young people were entertaiued by Miss Marshall on Fourth Fast street, on Thursday even-in- - A delightful party was given b Mrs. W. W. Hiter at Cnlder's ball on Thurs-day evening. The guests amused themselves iu dancing until a late hour. The last of the series of seven dances by the Cotillion club takes place at St. Mark's hall on Thursday evening next, and will be a German, for which some very pretty favors will be prepared. ' THE SOCIAL WHIRL. i An Epitome of the Most Important Events of the Fast Week in Society. THE IMPORTANT COMING EVENT3. The Week Before Ltnt Willie Character-ize- d by a Succession of Balls and Eeoeptions- There has been a decrease of activity in the whirl of society during the past week, which, however, bids fair to prove merely a lull before the storm-o- nly a breathing spell before the ti nnt rapid succession of social events that are in prospect. Among these may be mentioned the last of the Cotillion club parties in S t. Mark's school to be given next Thursday; a party given by the young ladies in Grand Army hall on Friday; and shortly after these, the last of the series oT assembly balls. These will bring to a close th e season of ac-tive festivity and keep sooiety people busily employed until lent begins, when the more quiet ton parties take the place of balls aud germans. Th Popular Pastime. A delightful progressive euchre party was given Friday eveniug by Miss Allie Bishop at the residence of Captain and Mrs. Bishop. The guests w ere Misses Dolly Walker, Helen Shearman. Maud Hardy, Stella Treiman, Grace Stanch-field- , Clara Williams, Mamie Roundy, Stoutt, Georgie McKimtnins, Florence Koundy, Viola Pratt, Agnes Judge, Nellie Greeumnn, Conkling.

Miss Viola Pratt won. first lady's prize, a gauze fan, and the booby prize was a rattle won by Miss Hardy. The gentleman's first prize, a plns'h dressing case, was awarded to Mr. Giiuter, and the booby, a chromo, to Mr. Hen Komney. The cards are out for a reception next Wednesday afternoon to be giveu by Mrs. Sherman in honor of her guest, Mrs. J. T. Jack of Iowa. Mrs. Jack is n olfl litnp Town frlnlul n9 tlin Khar. man family, and will be the guest of Mr. and Mrs Sherman during the month of February. Early in March, joined by Mr. and Mrs. Sherman and the rhiliiren, they will all proceed to California for a month's trip through that state. A Curd Party-Mrs- . R. A. Keycs gave a delightful card party at the Devereaux house last Monday evening. The game was pro-gressive euchre.and the affair was char-acterized by that thorough enjoyment which leaves in the minds of her guests such pleasant recollections of any given by the hostess, who, on this evening, was more charming than ever. Mrs. Keycs was assisted in receiving by Miss Rookledge, who per-formed her part with such becoming graco as to win a silver tea-bai- l as a prize. The gnosis were the Misses Mackintosh, Woodward, Austin, M. Woodward, Witter, Clara Witter, Keency, Wilkes, Conklin. Agatha Conk-liu- , Henderson. Mrs. Downey, Airs. Mackintosh, Mrs. Hatton, Messrs. Pavcy, Murray, I'endergast. Wilkes, Downey, Adams, Jones, De Ricqles, Galligher. Glenrienniug, Wallace, Fields, I'avey, W. Wicks. Miss Mackintosh von tho ladies prize, a silver button hook, while Miss Agatha Conklin secured the booby prize, an emery Dag, ip shape like a strawberry, Willi a silver leaf attached. Amonq the gentlemen Mr. Galligher carried off the lust prize, which was a pen wiper with a silver corner. The booby prize, a silver match holder, was won by Mr. Jones. ' '' Woe'e Keller. It is generally known that tears are beneficial in relieving the tension on the overtaxed nervous system, and this has of lute again received official com-mendation from a great French scien-tist. It may be of comfort to some who have recourse to this method of treat-ing themselves to know that it is now considered orthodox. Before long it is possible that the physician, after look-ing wise for several 'fractions of a sec- - ond, will write out a prescription after this fashion : R.

Parting a Name. There seems to be somewhat of an antipathy On the part of nearly all people who lay claim to good, solid, every-du- sense toward the man who "parts his name in the middle." This fueling may be only a slight one, but it has, nevertheless; come to stay. If a man wishes to write his name J. Wat-son Brown, instead of John W. Brown, it ought not be a matter of comment, but it generally is, perhaps for the rea-son that there is a suspicion of a desire on the part of the owner of the name to do something out of the ordinary for no reason but to be different from other people, and, consequently, conspicuous. A Very Neat Card, Very neat aud appropriate are the in-vitations gotten out by tho Iowa association for their reception to the Pennsylvania association at grand army hall, next Monday evening. Upon tho cards appear the following: "Iowa motto: Our liberties we prize, Our rights we will maintain"; "Penn-sylvania motto: Virtue, Liberty, Inde-pendence." Judge Lool'bourow is pres-ident, and C. H. Parsons secretary. The lowans now have an opportunity to equal the very successful reception recently given them by the Pennsyl-vaniati- High Five Club. The high five club met at Mr.' and Mrs. G. V. 'Wallace's at the Walkor house last Monday evening. There were present Major and Mrs. Downey, Major and Mrs. Wilkes, Mr. and Mrs. Moss, Mr. and Mrs. Lyman, Mr. and Mrs. Boggs, Mrs. Stewart of Denver, Mrs. Davis of Deer Park, Md.. Mr. Almy, Mr, Benson, Miss Daisy Davis, Mrs" Almy, Mr. Zaue and Mrs. Belden. A Bright Programme.

Clark Says the Salt Lake Union Paoifio Superin-tendent's Offioa AND THE DISPATCHER'S OFFICE May Possibly be Moved to Ogden, but the Company's Shops Will Stay Here. General Manager S. II. II. Clark of Omaha says the Union Pacific superin-tendent's and the dispatcher's ollice will probably be removed from Salt Lake City to Ogden. He says the change will not be made because the people of Salt Lake have been kickiug about freight and passenger rates; on the contrary, the change was deter-mined on some time ago, before any-thing was said about rates. "When I took charge of tho road I saw at once that the ollice of the superintendent of the mountain division was in the wrong place- - and I suggested that as soon as the change could be conven-iently made the ollice be removed to Ogden." There has never been any intention of removing the shops or any other ollice, except that of superintendent-an-probably that of the dispatchers. Tho change will be made for purely business reasons. The otlico will not be removed because it is at Salt Lake, but because it should be at Ogden, and it would be removed there without re-gard to its present location, simply be-cause common sense and the principles of railroading demand that it should be at that point. Thus it will be seen hour utterly un-reliable was aud are the statements made by the Vale Lock edition. By his effusions in yesterday morning's sheet he pictured himself shiver-ing before General Superintendent Bancroft who told him the cold facts that the shops will not be removed from Salt Lake to Ogden. If the Yale scribe would only give more of his time to recording the truth he may become reliable in spite of his possessing a sheepskin. The public pays for news, tho whole news aud reliable news and wants nothing but this. Through II. P. Weeper. The mauagement of the Lnion l'a-cifi- c railway at Omaha bus notified all the outside passenger agencies to the effect that commencing tomorrow tbe arrangement between the Wabash and Uuion Pacific companios, by which a through sleeper has for the past three years been running from St. Louis to Salt Lake city by way of Kansas City, Denver and Cheyenne, will be cancell-ed. Commencing tomorrow the through sleeper will be run out of St. Louis over the Missouri l'aoilic to Kan-sas City and thence over the Union Pa-citi- c to Salt Lake city. About Passenger Rates. Word from the meeting of the pas-senger officials of tho lines in the trans-continental and transmissouri associa-tions assembled in Chicago is as fol-lows: The majority of the roads are in favor of equalizing the rales by advanc-ing those to Montana points instead of reducing them to Salt Lake City, but whether this course will be satisfactory to the Utah people remains to be seen.

The Transcontinental association will hold a meeting of its passenger depart-ment in Chicago on February 9. A meeting of the passengor depart-ment of the Central 'I raflic association will be hold in St. Louis February 3. About fifty subjects will bo discussed at the meeting of the Western Passen-ger association in Chicago on next Tuesday. It is estimated that Uncle Sam will have to pay the railroads $2:J,6tO,128.31 for carrying his mails in the various parts of the United States this year. "Nothing new in the railroad world about Salt Lake City except the pro-posed lino to Tintic, the great silver region. We are all awaiting the ar-rival of James U. Bacon with the word, when work on the Deep creek road shall begin" said a Main street man.

Iluriala In Poete Corner. Reptt of Westminster Abbey Commissi on. They put in concrete in the case of Browning. It was certain that a hole had been excavated in that concrete, and that Browning was the third buried there. The others had gone to dust, with the exception of just the main bones. There was no signs whaever of o coffin. I knew there was one body there. That I moved a little way. Mrs. Simpson, a barrister's wife, was buried there. 'Die husband was buried in the temple. The was buried ninety-fiv- e years ago. That is in the Poets' Corner. Y e went deeper in the con-crete when Browning was buried. Mrs. Simpson's body appeared to have been nearly out of the cement. For instance, by the side of Browning there is room for it to remain. It appears to have been irregularly put in. It would be impossible to say accurately it would be impossible to say certainly but this concrete is not certainly to be depended on. For the many interments which have taken placo in Poets' Corner, I do not believe that tho concrete does till up the Poet's Corner. But I found it here (pointing to the map) when I buried Spottiswoode, and then when I buried Browning. But when I buried Browning we got paatly out of it. in Poets' Corner there is room for three or four. I know one to a certainty, and I know another spot or two beside Browning, too near Dick-ens and Macaulay (pointing). I believe there is room for one here. I know there is room for two or three here. I am certain of one by the side of Browning. AMUSEMENTS. The snow storm last eight kept many people at home but in spite of storm a large audience turned out to hear "Lit-tle Lord Fauntleroy." To hear the play was well worth braving the storm. The part of Lord Fauntleroy was taken by little Gertie lloman. She certainly is a clever little girl and played the part of the brave, ioving, little boy admirably. Avery noble aud manly little fellow he was as she depicted him. She has an intelli-gent preception of the part and the gradual winning over of the better nature of the cranky, crabbed old earl of Dorincourt was really fine art. Frank K. Aiken as the earl was good and left very little to be desired. Min-nie RadcliUas "Dearest" was sweet and womanly and Georgie Woodthorp as the adventuress was admirable. She ylayed the part to perfection and made it so true to life that it is little wonder the old earl ordered her to be put out of the house. This afternoon a matinee will he given at which Georgie Cooper will take the leadinar role. Gertie lloman will be Fauntleroy in the evening. Corrlnne, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and Wednesday matinee. As we an-ticipated, the talented young operatic artist, Corrinne "Little Corrine," as her Montreal admirers love to call her was tendered a monster reception on her at the Royal last evening. That house of crowded audi-ence was filled to the doors, standing room was impossible to obtain, and hun-dreds turned away long before the hour for the curtains to rise. "Monte Cristo, Jr." tbe greatest New York and Lon-don success, produced here for the first time, is a burlesque in every sense of the word. Corrinne is the bright par-ticular star, around which revolve the lessor lights of this really capital com-bination of operatic artists. The bur-lesque is replete with puns, topical songs, comic situations and funny say-ings, which kept the audience in capital good humor from the rise to the fall of the curtain. Corinne, as Kdrnond Dantes, is not only pleasing to the audi-ence but wins them to her so completely, that, to judge from the repeated en-cores which greeted her every appear-ance, they cannot spare her an instant out of their sight. This is all the more wonderful as in the present company Corinne is surrounded by such a galaxy of female loveliness, which on any other occasion would distract the heads of any ordinary spectators. Montreal Herald. - ' Tbe Sea King;. The next attraction at the Salt Lake theater will bo The Sea King, a roman-tic opera comique in three acts, by the William J. Gilmore Opera company, commencing Feb. 5th. The patrons of this theator will have an opportunity of hearing for the first time in this city the new comic opera "The Sea King," which was the, attraction at Palmer's' theater, New York city, all last sum-mer, where it sustaiued the test of metropolitan endorsement, notwith-standing its birth was in the Quaker city of Philadelphia. Few operatic productions in recent years have been accorded the high praise which has at-tended Manager Gilmore's latest effort and that his name will be associated with this form of amusement is an ab-solute fact. He has, in the production of the opera, been most liberal, and tho rich presentation with which the opera will be given here merely illustrates how careful he is to secure "a favorable criticism as he was in New York or Philadelphia. The costumes have all been designed by Baron C. de Grimme, while tbe scenery for the three acts are from the brushes of Homer F'mens, Maeder and Scbaeffer. The opera has the assistance of a very strong com-pany, while the chorus is said to be re-markable not alone for its numbers but for its singing qualities, as well as looks and shapely appearance. The scene of tbe opera is laid in Spain in the thir-teenth century and gives opportunity for picturesque costumes and rich and beautiful scenery. The sale of seats for any performance of the coming en-gagement will be open Wednesday, Feb. 4th. "IN REALTY CIRCLES. The Winter Transactions in Dirt are a Surprise to Even the Most Sanguine.'' REAL ESTATE AND BUSINESS. A Good Sale Noted The Eeoorded Trans-fers Yesterday Notes and Comments. In spite of fno wlntery weather the demand for realty still keeps up. Every-day sees a number of good sales made, while lots in the various additions are selling like hot cakes. The real estate market has kept up phenomenally during the winter. Last summer, in July and August, there was a dull season, and the Napoleons of dirt began to look a little blue, but about September the market improved. The demand for realty became fairly active. Prices moved 11 D to a aood fiar- - ure, and since that time they have held steadily at the top figures. There has been no let up in the demand. That there would be some falling off when winter set in was expected, but the real estate men were very pleas-antly disappointed. They are all doing a rattling business now and the smile of prosperity is seen on every face. This state of affairs is largely due to the judicious advertisement done by both the real estate exchange and tbe chamber of commerce last summer. They had faith in Salt Lake, and in the very midst of the dull season, went down iu their pockets and and spread the fame of Zion abroad. Now they are reaping their reward. A Good Sale. J. C. Halleron has made quite a good sale it was for $12,500(1. It consists of the south half of lot 1, block 14, plat A. This lot is situated at the corner of Eighth South and Main streets.

Three five-hous- e terraces to cost MOJO per house, and fourteen separate retidences to cost $5000 each are being planned for the nort bench. SICNS OF THE TIMES. Matter of Vital Importance Eipressed In Few Bentenoes. There will be a grand and' welcome fall in house and room rents within a few fortnights. Job printers are not tilling many orders for cards bearing the streotyped words: "Furnished rooms for rent." To date the newly organized board-ing clubs in the city are a grand suc-cess. They are desirable in many ways and possibly the two prominent fea-tures connected with them are economy and sociability. The difference these days between $18 and $;S0 per month for board is something to be possessed. Since the refusal to grant a liquor license to the Franklin avenue theater the prospects for the erection of a similar place of amusement in the city are small. The Salt Lake city party now in San Francisco trying to secure funds for such a play-hous- e will hear the news with crushing effect and re-turn without delay. f Whila hnu'linfT nlnnir th Wvnmintr division of the Union Pacific General Superintendent Bancroft and General Freight Agent Kccles may finally reach Omaha. Once there they will confer with the moguls on matters of impor-tance respecting Salt Lake city. The return of the local railroaders will be watched and their news will be given The Times' readers first. -- - 4- It is 'not necessary to ring all the bells simultaneously to announce the fact that a great deal of new building will be dono this present year of our Lord. The architects are busy and say they have scores of prospective plans ahead. However, the presence of win-ter appears to have no terrors for con-tractors, as they work day in and day out. -- Those citizens possessed of a philan-thropic desire to do good and rear a monument to last longyears after they shall have slipped life's fitful dream, should not forget that this city of 50,000 souls has no public library. Here, then, is an opportunity for some man or woman to do an act that will place he or she the foremost benefactor in Salt Lake. Prompt action is acceptable. - Possibly the interests of no oity are so carefully and closely guarded as those of Salt Lake by the real estate exchange and the chamber of com-merce. Within the last three weeks those organizations have done com-mendable" work in various ways to-wards retaining the good name and in-terests of the city. It is such bodies that lay the foundations which exist until the world shall be devoured by fire. --t- That was a bit of quaker like diplo-macy ou the part of representatives of Ogden's chamber of commerce to call at General Superintendent Bancroft's office yesterday to tell him to use his own judgment about establishing his headquarters in their city. They found the object of their search away and their set speeches were no good. Mr. Bancroft is practical enough and wiso enough and railroader enough to use his own active mind, gentlemen. Then, too. Salt Lake City always has, and ever w ill, stand up for her best inter-ests and vigorously protest against the removal to other points of the least thing that is of benelit to the commu-nity. This is the watchful spirit here. Envious Ogden may say this is selfish-ness but it is practical in tho nineteenth century when cities strive for suprem-acy. W, E. Carter, a Commercial Man front Minneapolis is Totally Dis-abled. HIS ASM TEEEIBLT LA0EEATED By Being Thrown Against a Hook In ft Pullman Sleeper This Morn-ing. W. E. Carter, a commercial man from Minneapolis, is lying at the Con-tinental in an injured condition. This morning as Mr. Carter was making his toilet in the wah room of the Pullman, sleeper at the Rio Grande Western sta-tion in Salt Lake City a switching en-gine ran by. , Within a short time a car was pushed against the sleeper and Mr. Carter waa knocked against the side of the apart-ment by tho force. His right arm caught on a brass hook, which pene-trated the flesh and tore an ugly gash of several inches in it, the blood flowing profusely. Tho unfortu-nate victim was so securely pinned to the hook that he had to lift his arm off it. The wound is not far from the shouldor and it is very painful. Dr. A. C. Standart was summoned and he put eleven stiches in the wound. Mr. Carter is receiving kind attention. The accident will be a great backset to his plans and business. Sunday dinner at the Saddle Rock. The Production of Physical Beauty. Popular Science Monthly. Tho idea of beauty is wholly relative, and varies with places and times. Art-isl- s make beauty to consist in certain proportions of the parts of the skeleton and in the harmony of tbe muscular development. We might, perhaps, be more definite by saying that to bo handsome at rest and in motion the man ought to present the traits of health and moderate strength, and in addition to be in possession of his means of locomotion and of natural de-fense. This view of beauty originates in the consideration that there is a nec-essary relation between vigor, skill, agility, and the outer form of the body at rest and in motion. Thus defined, the type of beauty iu a given race or medium is an ideal which we seek to revive tho physical education. It fol-lows that a man specially devoted to any one exercise cannot be handsome. This may bo said of all the professions that localize muscular work in a re-stricted region of the body. There are, however some snorts that have the ad- - vantage of exercising equally the upper and lower limbs; such, for example, as wrestling. French boxing, swimming and canoeing with two oars and a slid-ing seat. A good gymnastics includes complete exercises, and incomplete or nnsymmetr'cal exercises, under such a condition as that they shall correct one another and that the work shall bear upon the lower and upper limbs.
