warehouse companies brought suit to se
cure an Interpretation of a clause In the McKinley -
Kinloy bill under which rolmported whisky Is

Visitors to the Columbian K.\-
jinsltioii Annual Mor- '
Conference.
SALT lane CITV , Utah , April 5. [ Special
to TIM : BF.11 Tbo vlsltorj to the Columbian
exposition In ISM will have nn opportunity
of seeing what has never before been at
tempted In the way of a mining exhibit.
There is a movement on foot and It promises
to bo u successful ono , that if carried to Its
culmination will surpass anything that has
over been attempted In this lino. It is pro
posed to have nn exhibit by the states ot
Colorado , California , Nevada , Montana ,
Wyoming , Idaho and the territories of Utah ,
Now Mexico and Arizona that will show the
process of obtaining gold and sliver from the
time that It is taken from the bowels of the
earth until It is refined Into the oars of com
merce. A company has been formed with u ,
capital stock of $1500,000 to carry out this
scheme and the stock Is being rapidly taken
in all the states mentioned.
Tha plan Is to eccura about twenty ncrcs of
ground In the vicinity of the exposition
grounds that will bo occupied by the exhibit.
On the surface of the real oatato will bo
erected stncltera and refining works , where
ores will bo treated and worked from the
bullion into a rollncd condition. Then there
will be a shaft sunk to the depth of about
0110 hundred nnd llfty foot , which will bo
provided with four elevators with a carrying
capacity of fifty persons each that will run
up and down In u circular guide that will bo
surrounded by marble and provided with
convenient places to stop off. In fact this
shall will bo divided Into "stories" where
will bo exhibited the products of the loading
mines , nil so arranged as to admit of the
closest Inspection. At the bottom will bo
drifts , slopes nnd levels , representing
the different lodes and veins in the
various mines , aud they will all bo
supplied with real ere from the different re
gions of the states represented. There will
bo the free gold and stiver department and
the quartzlto , the galena and the carbonates.
In short , the precious metals will bo placed
thcro as nearly hi the manner ot nature as
nosslblo.
To accomplish all this it Is claimed that
nearly ten thousand tons of ere will bo rc-
qulrcn , nnd that the supply will have to bo
replenished quite often , is evident to all who
know anything of the process of smelting.
The smelters will not bo of the capacity that
nro required In this section , of course , but
they will bo ofsulllclcnt magnitude to carry
on quito a business. The ere that Is placed
in the mines will not bo disturbed , as to do
this would of necessity require a constant
system of repairs to bo kept up.
A meeting was held In this city on- Friday
evening last at which the preliminary steps
wens taken oil the part of the mining men of
this section , and there wilt ba another on
Tuesday night. Governor Thomas presided
nnd will at the next ono. Meetings are being
held In the other states , and there is every
reason to bellovo that the scheme will bo per
fected in a short time and that the work will
begin very soon. It must be rouiomborod
that this is no part of the regular exhibits of
the states and territories mentioned , but that
it Is a private matter aud will in no wise
conflict with the regular work of the local
governments , which will not bo called upon
to contribute a cent to the enterprise.
The mala exhibit will not bo taken away
from the city when tbo exposition Is ended ,
but will ho allowsd to remain and will bo
maintained as a permanent display.

Losing l-'nlth In Hani Small.
SALT LAKE CITT , Utah , April 5.- [ Special
Telegram to Tan Bni ! . ] Tncro Is a storm
brewing in Methodist educational circles.
Thcro Is a balance duo on the foundation' of
the Methodist university at O&dcn and thcro
Is no money to- pay the contractors , nnd as
they can get no pay a lawsuit Is a natural
consequence.
President Sam Small is In the east raising
money for the institution , hut for some reason
thcro has been no accounting from Small for
funds received. The need of monov Is nrcss-
ing nud according to all accounts no
reply can bo ( 'ot out of him , so
Hov. J.Vcsloy Hill of the First
Methodist church of Option cumo , in some
perturbation of spirit , the other day to P."A.
ll , Franklin , the well known 'Methodist
financier and president of the Niagara min
ing company , nnd wanted advice. Ho hud
lost faith In President Small and dlcin'tknow
what to do. So Mr. Franklin telegraphed to
Small at Philadelphia !
"Account for the funds entrusted to you or
legal proceedings will bo begun. "
Mr. Franklin also wired ono or two Phila
delphia ministers to exercise carom dealing
with Small.
Instead of accounting as requested Small
telegraphed u defiant reply , threatening to
sun Franklin for Blunder.
No charge of malfeasance Is made against
President Small only , where is the money
that ho Is collect ! n u' , or Is supposed to bo col
lecting ) nnd why are the requests Ignored !
are questions which the Methodists would
llko to have answered.
Last July when the question of electing
Small president of the proposed unlvcrsltv
was discussed , his opponents , led by Hov'.Dr.
Illff , superintendent of Methodist missions ,
openly declared that ho was not the proper
man for the position. Small delivered a
ivproad cnglo speech , and promised
If selected to raise funds in the
east for the erection of the university.
This captured tbo brethren and tbo Georgian
was elected by a small vote. lie then went
cast , and from tlmo to tlmo scut back word
that the Lord wns blessing tbo enterprise
and money coming'in freely. Believing his
reports building was commenced , and the
foundations have been llnlshcd for sonio
tlmo.
Tbo contractors now want their money and
threaten to file lloni on the property until
the bills are promptly met , Methodism is
stirred to Its -base and unless Small

with n well proportioned tlguro and a hand

carries with her Into private life. A genuine

Lawrence Barrett's death and Edwin
Booth's retirement'from the stage bavin ?
been touched up&ii' ' , * Mile. Khea. remarked :
"I played with Mr. Barrett a number of
yoai-b ngo , at the Cincinnati festival , the bill
being 'Much Ado About Nothing , ' In which
Mr. Barrett played Benedict and I Beatrice.
Wuile I do not know him as well as many of
the Drofcsslou , stlll.1 had a profound regard
for bis studlousum nnd In certain respects
his ability. Whllo greatly misunderstood ,
I believe the stage has suild"rod a great loss
throuah his death.
"It is a inlsfortunb to the English-speaking
stage that Mr. Booth has decided to retire ,
for America has ; not many eminent actors
and undoubtedly ho was and still is the rep
resentative Shnkesr > c'arean. Yet I saw Mr.
Booth nlno or ton' years ago and I bollevo
there were not moro ttian 200 people in the
audience. Hut then lie was only making his
reputation , his assaslntjlqn wlttuJtfr. BaiTott
having ooeri.'tbo cu'linlnatlou of his well de
served fame. "
"With the death of Barrett and the retire
ment of Booth , the bopo of the higher drama
has received a decided , blow. " sold the re
porter.
"That is x-ory true , " replied the actress ,
"but what else could you expect in a'country
which refuses to < support high art ? Hero
farce , melodrama , Mr.Hoyt , Mr. McNally ,
nro uppermost to tha detriment of higher
typos of art , and until the theatergoing pub
lic demand a llttlo moro mental pabulum the
same condition will continue.
"This state ot affairs docs not exist lu
Franco nor In England. In those countries
tradition Is religiously respected , not nlono
by the actoror actress , but oy the public as
woll. It may bo that the conditions are dif
ferent in Amorlei'nnd Franco , no doubt thov
are , but It does not speak well for the Intelli
gent American that ho prefers ' < V Texas
Steer' to 'Hamlet , ' if 1 may bo allowed touser
the. comparison. "
BjThea the talk dri ted to the Cdmcdlo Fran-
caiso , and thin gave Hhea an opportunity to
explain what she meant by "tradition. "
"It is remarkable , " said she , "how the
sociotaircs of the pomedie Francalso cling to
old customs. Take a young girl , say seven
teen or clchtcon , who"comes up for oxaml-
nutlea and Is required to give an Illustration
of her ability as a reader. If she were to use
oven so much as an Inflection different from
that used a generation , nny half a conlury
ago , she would bo infonned'that there was
no place for her. Individuality counts as
nothing ; It must bo tradition. So
they roll their r's and prolong
their inflections until ono goes mad almost
that such a thing as tradition exists. Yet it
has lt influence. It gives the beginner an
atmosphere which cannot bo obtained In any
other country in the world. That Is why the
Comodio Francaiso is the standard of auso-
lute excellence throughout the domain of the
mlmlo world. "
"Do you ever find it difficult to Identify
yourself with your parts ) "
"No , because I will not play a part that I
am not in sympathy with. In Josephine ,
from the llrst moment I put my foot upon tbo
stage , I am Josephine. I feel It I laugh , I
cry , I rojolco , I suffer. I do not fool tnat I
am Rlica ; I am empress of tha French. "

There is no American tour which combines
a greater variety of scenery and a wider in
terest to the traveler than one from Omaha
to San Francisco nnd Los Angeles , ( Jala.
The traveler passes through the states of Ne
braska , Colorado , Wyoming , Nevada and
California and tlm tcrrltorv of Utah. This is
the great business licit of the west and at
every step of the Journey something of Inter
est presents Itself , whether the tourist bo
student , business man or merely pleasure
seeker.
Nebraska nud Its prairies ; Colorado and Its
mountains ; Utah and its wonderful Salt
lake ; Nevada and Its arid plains and Cali
fornia with its innumerable attractions , are
all compassed In this trip. Omaha , tha most
prosperous city in the union today ; Denver ,
the queen city of the Kocklos ; Salt Lnlto , the
7\on \ of Mormondomj San Francisco , the
golden gate , and Los Angeles , the City of
Our Mother of the Angels , form a string of
Jewels of rarest water.
Tlieso are all prosperous cities ; thev are
all beautiful cities ; they uro all wonderful
cities. Each Is romarKablc for sonio particu
lar reason. No two of. them are
alike in attractions and 'no traveler
can afford missing to see each nnd
all. In the months of Juno , July , August
and September the prairies of Nebraska , the
Hocky mountains , the valleys of Utah and
the great Sierra range are soon to the best
possible advantage , it Is the fruit season of
California , the sight seeing period of nil thu
mountain countries nnd thu nlunsurabln uart
of the year for travel.
The ticket ottered by TUB Hr.B hi return

stop-overs at all points of Interest between
Omaha und Los Angeles. A week era month
may bo spent nt Denver visiting the plctur-

Niagara falls , the world's greatest catar
act , needs no glowing description. It cannot
bo described. Pouring over a precipice 100
feet high , the Immense volume of water of
Niagara river , the outlet of the great lakes
finds its way toward the ocean. On cither
side of the river are splendid views of this
tremendous waterfall , above it and below It
nnd all about It are other scenes which have
attracted travelers from all parts of the
world. Goat Island , the burning spring , the
whirlpool rapids , tbo suspension bridge , are
incidents merely to a visit to Niagara falls.
The field on which the battle of Lundy's
Lane was fought is" within a few minutes'
drlvo on the Canadian side. The facilities
for visiting all points of Interest on either
sldo of the river are superior. The regula
tions controlling access to and from the sev
eral points uoxV prevent the exorbitant
charccs which were formerly almoit as fam
ous as the cataract. A doj or n few days at
Niagara falls U one great event In nn aver
age lifetime , and no American should over
think of visiting tourist resorts abroad until
ho has seen Niagara falls. Ho nan have no

inspiring beauty , who has missed a visit to
this world renowned spot.

have on the whisky Industry , if Indeed It will
touch It , nud whllo In Loulsvlllo ono day lait

ment of the Wathca Hi-other * to sco what I
could learn. The magnitude of thU distillery
can bo comprehended by the statement mndo
In the quotation nuovd , being the words of
the senior Mr. Wnthen in wo emerged .from
the three or tivtr acres of buildings and got
boyoml thu sweet smells of old nnd licit'
bourbon niul rye.
"I do not sou that the now tnillT law Is hav
ing any ofToit upon thu distillery business , "
naiil Mr. Wnthen , who Is undoubtedly the
largest distiller of line whiskies In Kentucky ,
If not Indeed in thu world. "Wo pnyTfi cents

tionately higher. When the McKlnloy bill
threatened to become n law com could be
bought for 60 cents n bushel. Mult was low
In price , I was told that the bill would become -
como n law , nnd that the prices of all farm
produce would go up Immensely , but I did
not bellovo It. I am n free trader , you see.
Well , I know mow about It now than I did
boforo. Yes , I presume the farmers will
reap ns great If not greater benefit from the
new law as any class. "
Tbo toplu turned on whisky. "Whisky
Is very cnonp now considering the
price of stock from which to make
it , " said thu great distiller , whose
father before him was n whisky maker nnd
"
who probably knows moro about "milking fine
job out nn article now nt $ J a gallon , tax
paid , which ten years ago would hove
brought twice the money. Tha cause I Im
provements In the work. No business has
taken greater strides than the distillery.Vu \
have learned to ago whisky in the treatment
of the grain. Como with 'me. Hero wo re
ceive the corn. First It Is run through a
process which takes out every foreign par
ticle , dust , dirt , tnssol and nil. Hero thu
grains are , so clean they sparkle with bright
ness. We must have tlio very soundest ,
llnost grain. The poison In whisky Is In
fusil oil. That Is what gives men the do-
llrlums. How to got fusil oil out
of whisky or keep It out with
out Injuring the whisky Itself
has been the problem for n century. In my
father's tlmo It cumo out by time , and by
evaporation , through natural processor
while the whisky was in the barrel , I never
let It got Into the whisky. Ittiko It out of
the corn before It U boiled Into meal. Fusil
oil , or nearly nil of it , Is in the husk nnd ker
nel , or heart of the grain. I bavo machinery
which removes all that. When I lirst dis
covered that fusil oil was in the outer per
tions of tbo grain aud declared my Intention
to remove It , so that the liquor would ngo
fast and bo purer , other distillers attempted
to ridicule the idea. Ono man went so tar at
to come hero und buy this husk and heart anil
attempted to distill whisky from It , Ho
failed. Ho made almost clear fusil oil. ThU
whisky js essentially pnro , and is the clean
est made. "
This I found to bo a fact. The Jlnost corn
meal In the world , the cleanest , affords the
or operations. At no oilier pmco 111 "
Is the grata cleaned , then vlr-
tunllv cleared of nil Its cuticle. The on
line whisky , essentially pure , which could bo
consumed after ono year , the owners never
took the whisky out of bond under three
years , so as to got the advantage of utro with
out being out the tax Investment. Now con
siderable of thcso goods go out of boud a
year or two after distilling , and are con *
sinned.
Mr. J. T , S. Brown , ono of the largest job
bers of line whiskies in Louisville , told mu
tliut bourbon or rye made as the Wnthoiis
make their * , was a llnu drink after n year of
standing , and when the three youra expire It
Ims the tone aud nppoarnnco as well as the
taste of. goods mndo under the old process
which hud stood ton years. Thus it has been
demonstrated that whisky can bo made old
by the process which derives claanlinojs i
purity best. This establishment has demon
strated also that all processed to kill fusil oil
Injures the whisky.
