The coming of Modjcska In "Mary Stuart" Monday night, attracted only a fair audience. There may have been several in that audience who deeply appreciated the pioductlon, but general comment gives ilso to the belief liiat there were many more who for tea sons best known to then selves did nut get enthusiastic over either Modjeska, her company or her play. It Is baldly bald-ly necessary to go Into futllicr detail for it Is I'ciicially underitood that this once great artists Is traveling now on ' u leputatlon of the. pasi. To those! who can appreciate gredliii's dlsn-throned dlsn-throned by time, and who venerate one for deeds of other days not forgot ten, Modjeska held a chaim. Hut tills is a thoughtless and a lushing age. It's the new thing that catches the public, taste, not the old nor the perfect per-fect thing. An exchange publishes the following conundrum: A banker sauntering home Jor his dinner saw a $10 billon the curbstone. He picked It up and took the number In order to llnd the owner. While at home his wife icmarkcd that the butcher iiad sent a bill amounting to 10. The only money he had with him was tho bill lie had found, which lie gave h:r, and she paid the butcher. The butcher paid It to a (aimer for a calf and the farmer paid it to a merchant mer-chant who in turn paid it to a washwoman, wash-woman, and she, owing the banker a note of $10, went to the banker and ' paid the note. The banker rccognlz-i cd the bill us the one he had found, and which up to that time had paid $,"j0 debt. On careful examination he found that the bill was a counterfeit. Now, will some of our kind friends tell us what has been lost in this transaction tran-saction and by whom. , Cioy'den a settlement located twenty-two miles cast of Ogdcn on the U. P. It. K. will be a scene of great activity during the coming summer. sum-mer. Two Inoxhaustlblc mountains of limestone and shale arc found there and a great cement factory Is to be built by syndicate composed of Ogdcn men, David Kccles, Fred J. Kelsel, ) James Mack and others, who have I paid up over one-half million dollars,' the company being Incorporated for thicc and a half millions. The plant, It is said, will cost twice as much as a sugar factory. An expert has been secured from tho cast who has had a life's experience In the business, and he Is paid a salarly of $7,.")00 per annum. an-num. Tills gentleman will attend to the construction of the plant and running it after completion. A, thorough analysis has been made of the material at hand and It Is found to have but two and a half per cent magnesia, mag-nesia, while the maximum limit allowed al-lowed by the government in making cement Is four per cent. The capacity capa-city of tho plant will bo --'.OOO barrels per day. It Is expected that two trains of coal will be used dally. Satisfactory arrangements have already al-ready been made-for transportation with the railroad company. About 400 men will be constantly employed in running the plant, which'ls to be operated day and night. Six enormous enorm-ous factories of this kind hi Colorado will bo unable to supply cement this year for block work alone. Mr. 11. O. Itlchardson, of Salt Lake, has been In this valley the past few dajs negotiating for the sale of quite a number of coiumcicial oichards, It Is said that not a few land owners ! along the cast side of the valley havc awakened to the possibilities of fruit culture heio and propose to put out orchaids within the coming year. Mr. Itichaulson Is Inclined to believe that ' few sections otter gieater advantage's for ccitaln varieties of apples and cherries than does Cache. In speaking speak-ing of fruit conditions generally, Mr. Hlchardson speaks of Delta county, Colorado, where there were no orch ards eight years ago. Small orchards had been almost destroyed by Insects and the fruilmen were discouraged. Soncone stirred up a little Interest, tho proper kind of spraying was done, new orchards were put out, apd today Delta county Is almost phenomenal In Its production of llije Irult. Tho! fruit men of the county organized, put an agent on the road on a commission com-mission basis and he soon found an eastern market. Today the organization or-ganization Is In existence, but an agent Is no longer needed eastern buyers como to Delta county. The organization has set a standard and only standard fruit goes from the county, hence its reputation. Mr. nichardson would urge proper spraying spray-ing here, then mote orchards and organization. |
