T. C. Iliff will lecture to the Logan- ites next Tuesday evening, the subject being his interesting lecture: "On horseback j through Palestine, and walks about Jerusa- lem, including the temple of Solomon.'" s . The front of the Surveyor-General's office I in the Hooper block has been elaborately I decorated in mourning in memory of Vice- President Hendricks. It was done undor I the direction of the Surveyor-General, Gen- ; eral Kichmond Dement. I f: The Thompson Opsra Company will come 2 : here via the D. & II. G. In a letter introduc- j ;i ing Mr. Abrahams, agent of the company, to ' some of his friends in this city, Mr. H. K. i Hooper says: "I want to say that the Thompson Thomp-son Opera Company is 'bang up,' and you need have no hesitancy in recommending it as such. I The expected footrace to-morrow between ! ?; Harry Williams, the Eastern runner, and Dave Eeese, of Logan, promises to be an ex- v citing affair. A forfeit is already up, and both parties will doubtless deposit the bal- , ' ance. Reese is said to be a flyer, and the S i defeat of Tibbetts by Williams proves the , latter to be a professional. The race is to ; come off, rain or shine. J j i On Wednesday evening the Odd Fellows S .. 2 of Ogden dedicated a new hall for the use of I Union Lodge No. 6. Deputy Grand Master i ' G. F.

I t The third of the series of hops by the r i Knights of St. Dennis was given in Olympic I Hall last evening, and was largely attended I by the young society people of the city.

The Denver Xews says: "Very wicked indeed in-deed must the Mormons be to send to the wioked cities East and West and bring in i loose women to Salt Lake to tempt the pure nud guileless Gentiles from the ways of I f . righteousness which they have heretofore f followed so faithfully. But isn't it just possi- U b,e the Gentiles are laying it on a little too I thick this time? We have never heard that I the Gentile inhabitants of Salt Lake had to i , .' wear toe-weights in order to avoid being J ; translated bodily. Somebody must be ly- (, rSayS the Alla Califriia: "The Utah "s" Mormons were lately reported to be raising j R money pool to influence legislation. Its t . se was for a different purpose entirely. The s ; Gentile papers in Salt Lake print oontracts j made with members of the demi-monde in j i San Francisoo to go to Utah and betray ( ,' ! prominent Gentiles into compromising j : situations. This is to show that polygamy ; . is not the only vice there. But what of it? j ; 1 he Mormons continually make the mistake l ;'" f thinking tht blackwashing the vices of S i 5 civilization whitewashes the same vices when practiced by them under the cloak of j religion." |
