I notice in todays issue of the Republican a report of a tion to this consolidation movement some time ago, and then a great many people scouted the idea of consolidation, but now Supt. Cummings of the church schools is ont with an interview in which he admits all that the Journal stated about this matter. In the Herald he has this to say : The movement to consolidate the collegiate institutions of the Latter-da- y Saints, looking to the upbuilding of a Mormon university, has taken definate form. The report that the Mormon church intends to concentrate the college work of its schools in one place was confirmed yesterday by Professor Horace Cummings general superintendent of : the church school system. Professor Cummings said: The church school board has formally resolved that college work shall be done in only one in- case in Justice Pedersen 8 court, wherein I am reported as having struck John Harry, pleading guilty to the charge and being fined $10.00, all of which is true. But I object to being put in the light in which the article placed me, creating trouble and then' taking advan tage of Mr. Harry and striking I him in the face. The facts are these. While talking with Mr. Harry over a difference between us, he called my wife a liar, and I struck him for it, and will do it again under similap conditions, if it does cost me $10.00.

Some members of the general board are convinced, it a said, that tbe church should retire all its. schools. from the field of college work, leaving that field to the state institutions, which the members of the church by their taxes help., to support, and give its attention educationally to establishing and fostering church high schools. As to whether the present discussion to concentrate the college work might not eventually lead .to this, Professor Cummings was unwilling to venf ture an opinion. . .The church schools today comprise a far more elaborate system than; most persons Suspect. There are, all told, twfentyfive' of these schools. 'Of theses two are in Canada; aeven in Mexico, three in Arizona and nine in Utah. The work done is mostly of high grade. Three of the smaller schools in Mexico give grammer grade work, and the two in Utah which are rivals for the chance to grow into a great church university are the only ones which attempt college work. A characteristic of the system of which Superintendent Cummings is very proud it its power to interest educationally young men and women who are too old or too large to study in classes with small boys and girls. Professor Cummings cites many eases of men who have been lifted by the schools from an existence in which they did nothing but pound ponies and cattle and chew tobacco, into one of and influence. The courses and text books in the various schools are uniform, and parallel closely those of the state high schools. ? self-respe- ct Theology is the characterizing church school study; this work, in fact, is the chief reason for the maintenance of the church schools. On industrial subjects the church schools place much emphasis.

Rockefeller gathers .be coin. W. B. Preston, Jr., went down to see it operate on his fathers farm the other evening, and he says that in three hours it gathered ten bushels of hoppers, while another report has it that Bishop nenry Ballard collected 50 Lush-el- s of the little pests in two days work with the machine. This year the hoppers have destroyed a lot of stuff ia Benson, and the farmers feared that if nothing was done to cheek the incresac of the pests, next year they would take everything, so they appealed to Prof. Bais. He responded with his grasshopper machine catching The device is simply box made of lumber and wire netting, in front of which is a wide flare of tin sloping forward and downward into the nett-.- d box. Yhe box is about. 18 feet Jong and a horse is bitched to each end. When a field of grass or gtain is t-li- ng Sad Death of Young Man Aug. 1. William the Jones, only eon of Prof.,W. H.

The heaviest storm of the summer visited Salt Lake Saturday afternoon and for two hours blew up and down the streets until it looked as though a young cyclone had crept into the valley. Dr. Hyatt had announced the arrival of the storm, determined not to be caught napping as he had been a week ago when a vagrant thunderstorm' came in unannounced and remained for a 'i short time. session Another of slight storms is expected today. They will serve to clear the atmosphere of the excessive humidity that haa been prevalent during the past week and then another period of real comfortable warm weather can be expected, according to tbe weather man. Yesterdays item began in earnest about 3:30 and lasted until nearly 6 oclock. It was accompanied by heavy winds. ' The storm struck the Salt Palace as though it were a regulation Kansas cyclone and when it had. passed over $1,000 damage had been done. Tbe northern half of the dance hall roof was blown off and hurled into the beer garden. The wind also tore down the -fence surrounding the saucer track at the northeast corner of J ' the track. No one was injured by the flying timbers as the park was almost deserted at the time ' of the storm. Limbs of trees were blown down all through the park until it was nearly impassable. The races were postponed last night on account of the storm and Manager Nelson estimated the dam4 age at $1,000 or over, The Cullen Hotel electric sign snapped three of the chains suspending it and broke its electric connections. For several moments it swung perilously with but one corner supported. The wind blew' it about and sparks flew from the live wires until Ben Heywood had.lassooed tbe swinging sign and anchored it. Tbe storm on the. Great Salt lake was one of tbe most severe that has occurred on the mysterious inland sea for years. The waves rolled over the main section of the Saltiar establishment and some of the water reached the promenade, which is on the dancing pavilion floor. All of the boats that ply the great lake sought shelter early and were at safe anchorage when the Storm broke. Even moored with cable and hauser as they were, the vessels rocked and tossed much af- ter the fashion of a craft in distress at sea. There being no one at sea, no one was injured. Many scores of people watched the, water in its madness, thrilled, alarmed and terrified by he spectacle. , , ifc i ;n t V |
