Will Second anrt Third Sonth Streets Be I'aved or Not ? There is a whole lot of speculation among the enterprising citizens of Salt Lake today regarding the probable outcome of the peti-tions for- paving Second and Third South streets. There are apparently a great many property owners on each thoroughfare who do not desire any improvements and the case of Third South seems to tremble in the bal-ance, while it is conceded that Second South is all right by a few feet. The owners or trustees of the Methodist church property opposite The Times office are among the protectants on Third South, while Auerbaeh is another. All of which makes J. M. Kicketts extremely warm under the vest. 'When the Knutsford hotel was built," said Mr. Kicketts, "these people aided the project not a whit. It did more to build up the east side than anything that could have been done. Now when we want to pave so that this vicinity will be still further bene-fitted they kick. No wonder people say 'why don't the council do something?' How can they when they are not permit-ted T Tas. K. Gillespie was also slightly hot. "I don't know whether Second South is a go yet or not. The very people we expected would help us have signed remonstrances, Kelscy has been working very bard. Why the opposition had Matt Cullen on their list. When we explained the cae he signed for paving." From other sources it was gathered that Bits, the owner of the White House and the owners of the Walker property west of Main on Second South are among those who protest. Everyone concedes that the paving of Second and Third South would be the inak- - i ig of those two thoroughfares and The Times would like to see them paved. THE STRANGER WITHIN OUR GATES. A party of Guatemalan capitalists, all dis-tinguished citizens of that country, arrived in Salt Lake this morning from San Francisco and are stopping at the Knutsford. They spent this morning in driving over the town, and on returning to the hotel, expressed themselves as de-lighted with the beauties of the city. Following are the members of the party;: Jose Marrott, Louis Jacoby and wife and two daugnters, Urbano Jacoby, Bermardo Parlange, Emilo Frample, Francesco Galan. G. B. Cluett, of Troy, New York, accom-panied by his wife and daughter, and his; manager, Mr. Peabody, arrived here this morning and are stopping at the Knutsford. Mr. Cluett is the famous manufacturer of collars and cuffs. . . Railroad Notes. W. H. Brancroft of Ogden, and C. E. Wur-tel- e of Cheyenne, are in town. Colonel Hooper of the Rio Grande Is slowly recovering from his illness but is still confined to his bed in Denver. The work of grading between Milford and Pioche is reported as going on finely, and it is said that 1000 men are now at work be-tween the two points. The Grand Junction Star congratulates Cy. Warman in this fashion: "Everybody re-joices over Cy. Warm an' s recovery and mar-riage. We trust he will grow robust now, both physically and morally." . m CREAM OF THE NEWS.

W Oscar Block and an unknown will spar I ten rounds at Fitzgerald's gymnasium on Saturday night for a purse of $."(J. Chief Stanton this morning tore down the I old shack south of the Holmes building, on f State street, which has been used as a livery stable. The fire department were called out at 3::0 this morning to extinguish a blaze at Conk-Un'- s sampling works. The damage was B about $50. H I Frederick Everett, formerly of this city and a graduate of Salt Lake academy, is now I one of the physicians at Cook county hos-- i pital, Chicago. An incipient fire in a shed in the rear of the Palmer house on Second East caused the department to make a run at 1:30 today. The damage was nominal. The Times is in receipt of the prospectus ' of the Utah World's Fair Advocate. It prom-ises to be a neatly gotten up affair, and will ( no doubt receive the patronage it deserves. I The People's shoe store is going out of business. In order to close out at an as early-da-y as possible they offer bargains in ladies, misses and children's shoes. Opposite the-- ater. On Sunday evening a man named Burton was driving into his yard on Seventh South street, between Third and Fourth West, when he accidentally ran over a child, severely in-juring the little one. The eastern mail was 6ix hours late this morning, yet with the facility for which they are distinguished the clerks in the postoffice distributed the mail in time for delivery at 10 o'clock. You need a good pair of shoes. Why not purchase now when the People's shoe store offers so many bargains. They are having a removal sale and you can save money hy calling there. Opposite theater. Jules La Bartch has been appointed local uperintendent of the Rio Grande Western in this city. He is from Denver and has been with the company ten years three of which were spent in the position of chief clerk in the office of the general manager. The compound engine which was received here by the Saltair railroad company, aud which has been in use by the D. it R. G. W. for some time, broke down this morning just this side of Kaysville, and was delayed about two hours. No one was hurt so far as can be learned.

There is every prospect for the extension of a branch road from the Hot Springs line, beginning at Ninth North, to Saltair beach. r It is understood that many property owners on the proposed line, among them being Postmaster Benton have agreed to donate the right of way. R. O. G. Showell wishes it understood that he is not a partner of Contractor Harkins and further that when it comes to discount-ing time checks he is not that kind of a man. When a laborer is paid off by him Showell says he gets 100 cents on the dollar and sometimes more. Among the prisoners at the penitentiary is a fine penman named W. Golden. A epecimen of his work is seen at Marshal Parsons office, and is in the form of resolu-tions adopted by the prison chapel thanking Mrs. Parsons for her interest in the prisoners and ber efforts in their behalf. sfe members of the Y.M.C.A. debating society expect to have with them tonight Mr. Kenworthy, who will speak on the sub-ject of "Christian Anarchy." Should the gentleman be unable to come, the subject, 'Resolved, That the Federal government should make and control divorce laws," w ill be debated. There is a movement on foot among a number of young men in this city to or-ganize a camp of the Sons of Veterans. A good attendance should be at the meeting on Monday night, when all arrangements will be perfected. Thirteen sons will turn Dut on Monday to assist in decorating the graves of old soldiers. The programme for the entertainment of the Boston delegation has been changed. The visitors will be met at the depot at 7 a. m. and after breakfast at the Knutsford will he driven around the city until 1 p. m. Af- - , ter lunch they will go to Garfield at 2:30. I In the evening a reception will be held at I the Knutsford from 8:30 to 10 p. m. I j The Grand Army posts of the city met last I evening to complete arrangements for the ' observance of Memorial Day. Several com-mittees were appointed, and it was decided to hold memorial services at the First Meth-odist church on Sunday morning at 11 o'clock. On Monday the vets will go to Fort Douglas on the jjrapid transit and decor-ate the grave of the soldiers. Mr. William A. Pett, the well-know- n pro-prietor of the old Orerland hooae, and now Sf the Tivoli on Sonth Main street, stepped On a banana peel last night and is liable to walk with a cane for a day or two in conse-quence. If the party who threw that partie-vla- r banana peel on that particular sidewalk trill kindly call at the Tivoli today he will l"arn of something not materially to his ad-vantage. The Times Is pleased to announce that business men are beginning to manifest seme interest in the idea of arranging for a proper celebration of the Fourth, and hpes that the matter will take definite shape before the end of the Meek. As usual, George Arbogast took the initiative, and he , with the of the cham-ber of commerce, to see a lire committee appointed at once. Tom Necdham was the victim of an luA'cious mishap this morning. While creasing Main street at the Union bank coiner a lady riding a bicycle run into him caing him to turu a half dozen somer-.saults- .

HILTON STILL A COOD SECOND. Danner and Ksllnger Tie for Third Place, While Matthews Holds a Grip on Fourth Notes of the Struggle. And the cry is still they come ! The Times voting contest still continues and the manner in which votes are dropping into the box of the voting-contes- t editor is gratifying in the extreme to all but him. The task of keeping an accurate count is no easy oue and the mathematician aforesaid has his braiu sorely racked in his effort to do all justioa and not miss a vote. Officer Danner came in for some votes to-day. That Is to say he did not personally visit The Times office but a friend of his did, and as a result Uanr.er starts off with 6o, a very tidv little send off when the fact that the voting does not close until June 20 is considered. Some humorist who signed himself "Mrs. Flanagan" voted one for Officer McUinty and agreed to poll one each day for that in-dividual hereafter. As there is no such per-son on the force the quasi Airs. Flanagan con rest assured that his ballot is now repos-ing quietly in the basement of the voting contest editor's waste basket alongside some spring poetrv donated by a pupil in the Ogden military academy. No joshing goes in this business, it is all in dead earnest. At 2 p. in. today the vote stood as fol-lows: Sergeant Wire MJ Offlcer Hilton I11 Officer EsUnger J Officer Danner W Officer Matthews Jl Officer Shaffer M Officer Curran , Officer Albrisrht m Serjeant Kand-.dp- Officer H.

Keep your eye on Hilton. Whaf s the matter with Mr. Eslinger? Also what's the matter with Mr. Donner? Mathews will be heard from soon. Paste that in your hat. Will somebody please break that tie be-tween, Eslinger ana Donner. A friend of George Albright says "never mind, just you wait, it's a long time until .tune 20." If any one thinks Harry Curran is out of the rr.ee he or she is not running in their proper groove. The votinsr contest editor insists that every person must cut his own votes. This buy-ing a hundred papers and placing them on his desk doesn't go.

The American Company Has an Of-fer From an Eastern Syndicate for Its Holdings. A MEETING CALLED FOE MONDAY. Lucerne Land and Water Company In-corporatedDemand for Houses Other Business Notes. The average citizen has for a long time wondered why the natural gas question should have been permitted to fall into a state of i nocuous desuetude, to quote an expression of the late chief magistrate. Nothing has been said on the subject for a long time and while the wells were kept burning to the delight of the passengers on incoming and outgoing trains, there has apparently been nothing done to place the advantages of the city before the outside world in connection with the matter spoken of. But the average citizen has been mistaken all this time. For like the damsel of old the natural gas matter was not dead but sleep-ing. While the parties having the develop- ment of this wonderful advantage were, to all outward appearance, reposing in blissful unconsciousness of the magnitude of the recent discoveries it appears that the public have been fooled and that instead of resting on their oars the interested people have been quietly but vigorously working to accom-plish a great work. There will be a meeting of the directors of the American Natural Gas company on Mon-day next at which a proposition from east-ern parties will be submitted. The afore-said eastern comprise a syndicate of the most wealthy gentlemen of the middle states whose attention has been attracted by re-ports of the supply of natural gas sent out by the enterprising reporters of eastern papers here. Correspondence has been opened and maintained and recently a representa-tativ- e from the east came herend without consulting any one looked over the field. His visit was not even known by the officers of the various companies and when he had finished he quietly folded his tent and w ent back to report. That it was a most favor-able one is evidenced by the fact that the proposition to be submitted on Monday is 6aid to be a most magnificent one. The interested ones' are very reti-cent about details but Tin: Times with its usual persistency developed the fact that the American company can sell its entire holdings if its directory so chooses. The details of the meeting will he found in Monday's issue of this paper and in the morning papers the day following. WANTED, HOUSES. Real Kstate IVlen Claim That There is a .Scarcity of Desirable Tenements. A tour of the real estate offices this morn-ing developed the fact that Salt Lake is long on vacant property and short on houses. Seven dealers, who run a rental agency in connection with their business, reported that they did not have a house on their books that would meet the demands. The population of Salt Lake seems to be increas-ing at a rapid rate, and the new-come- as a rule are workingmen with small families, who desire cottages or apartments of from five to six rooms. These are remarkably scarce. "I can rent fifty-fou- r or live-roo- house-.'- remarked one man this morning "in two weeks provided rents are reasonable, say from J15 to per mouth. That is what Salt Lake needs. True there, are some vacant houses in town but the owners want a teuant to buy them as it were. I know one man who has four new bricks which have stood five months without a tenant. He wants $'25 per month. He has lost 400 in an effort to make f500. If The Times will agitate this question I am sure that in a short time conditions will be different I know of no better investment than the con-struction of tenement cottages for rent." The Lucerne Land & Water C ompany. A new aud important business enterprise has just been launched, and the articles of incorporation were filed with the clerk of the probate court this afternoon. The com pany is known a the Lucerne Land A: Water company, and it is to exist for a period of 50 years. The capital stock is fixed at $50,000, divided into 5000 shares of the de-nomination of $10 each. The stock is sub-scribed for as follows: Xamt. Xo. Skfts. Adoiph Jensen 12 lame McGregor 13 Josiah South HS Benjamin Rich , fS'd Charles C. Dey 15 The company is organized to own land, construct aud maintain ditches, reservoirs and canals, and to construct and operate machine-- . The officers are Adoiph .Jensen, president; Benjamin Rich, and farm s McGregor, secretary and trea-surer. County Assessor's Office. County Assessor Will Lynch says the work in his department will be closed about June 10:h. The assessor's report should have been in on June 6th, but in the work of relaying old plats and revising the official maps, etc., the department is at least seven-teen days behind. The clerks, however, have made up ten days in the last two months, which is a pretty good showing. A new conundrum has just been sprung on the county assessor. The statute thai an assessment of not more than fivJweuts per colony, be charged the bee men of Salt Lake county. There is, how-ever, no provision by which the assessor can collect this by deputy, or find out the actual number of colonies in the county, except at his own expen-c- , nor any iaw which provides for an inspector or the appointment of one. The bee keepers of the country want to sec to thia matter at once. World's Fair Notes. Morgan county has reported to the com-mission, and intend to make as good a show-ing as the rest of them. Weber county has also sent in a re ort. which shows that they do not intend to be left. Weber county is sure to be in it. Vice-Preside-nt Mcintosh, during the ab-sence of Secretary McDaniel and Commis-sioner F.tnpy to Chicago, will have charge of the affairs of the commission. The relies received by the commission from Mr. Dan Maguire are attracting more attention than was expected. The relics are still on exhibition at the commission rooms. Secretary McDaniel and Commissioner N. A. Kmpy will leave for Chicago on the 27th of this month and not on the same day in June as stated before. The commis-sioners expect to do some good work before they come back. In a private letter Mr. Emanuel Jacobs of Washington county states that the country is just underlaid with relics and curios of all kinds. He avers that the, ruins of the ancient city of Kullik is only one of many that can be found down south. Only $.50 (o Chic and ltd urn via the l nion Pacific.
