T flo ot think that I will bar any
tumctilty la taUnc mr seat la the senate,"
aaM R4 Snoot, senator-elect from Utah,
fsaterda afternoon at the Union depot,
for I am Bet a polrramlst and never have
been. No man In Utah who knows any
thins about mo can say that I hare ever
taught or practiced polygamy, and that it
all there la to the matter. Any attempt to
out mo beoaas ot the chorea to Which I
belong would bo raising a question ol re
ligious prejudice, and from the general tone
ot tha newspapers ot the east, as welt as
those of ih west, I do not think that the
country Is ready for any religious test as a
qualification for oOoo.1
The newly elected senator from Utah was
em Ms way from his bom to Washington,
whero be will remain wntll the middle of
Karen, making arrangements for quarters
when the regular sessions open aeit fall
and getting the lay of the land, unless a
special session Is called, la the event ot
which he will Immediately enter upon the
discharge of the duties of his office.
The Junior senator from Utah will be one
t the few senators from a state west
of tha Missouri to be a native of the state
which be represents. He was bora la Utah
la 18M, the son ot Abraham O. Bmoot, who
entered the territory at the head ot a, sec
ond company pf Mormon Immigrants to
cross the plains from Council Bluffs In the
year 1847. In appearance Mr. Bmoot Is
youthful. Somewhat over six feet'tall, he
Is slender and lithe. His rathor small
alsed head Is well set on a slender neck,
and he has acquired a habit of stooping,
beoauae of bis superior staturs. He seems
to be on of the successful men of the westj
for as 'manufacturer, merchant, banker
politician and on of the twelvj
apostles' of the Mormon church he
has never - met failure, and' froia
his decided tone when talking of the expe
rience he expects at Washington he dors
not believe that he Will score a failure Ut
the first time at the national capital. While
be greets the Interviewer In a frlendlj
spirit and says, "I never repulse a report
er," yet he does not volunteer Informatics
and replies briefly and positively to ques
tions. .. .
' Charflk., Hot ! Polities.'
The church In 'politics? Well, It len t
in politics. There are men ot all politic. :
beliefs In the church, but the church Is i
good enough exsuse for the disgruntle:
. politician. Whenever the people lose cot
' fldence. In a man, or he Is defeated f
any reason, he Immediately sets up tl j
cry of the church In politics,' and to tit.
' outside world attributes his defeat to tt
church organisation, which, to my certa:
knowledge, takea no part In politics.
"Why,- they have even com to oonetdr
the . business organisations as xarta of the
church, knd people who know no better be-j
lteve that the church ponducts business afj
fairs'. The Z. C. M. I. has among 1U boarjj
of directors a number of gentiles, and then
companies are stock companies In the same,
sense that such oompanles are organise.

"Much talk has been mad of the fact
that I am an apostle In the church. Well,
under the peculiar organisation of the
church nearly every respectable member
has some priestly office. There are many
grades and the apostleshlp Is one. There
are tweiv of these apostles, and while the
church is ruled by what Is practically
democracy, the twelve ara looked upon as
a class set apart In a sense. At the samo
time every man devotes his time to aecular
matters to a larga extent. I hare been i
buslneas man alt my life and am now In
terested In banks and other Institutions.
As an apostle L have never drawn any
money from the church, and the position
carries with It no particular prestige In
any walk of Ufa outside ot tha church or
ganlsatlon proper."
. Reyertlng again to the business condi
tions In Utah. Senator Bmoot eald: "We
manufacture almost everything Jn that
state, and right now w are turning our
attention, to sugar beets, which Is to be one
ot the principal crop of the west. The
oil seems to b peculiarly adapted to the
growth ot beets and the people alive to the
possibilities of the business."
Mr. SmOot la Interested In the manufao
tur ot beet sugar In Idaho as well as Utah,
and on of the first questions he asked ot
a friend who had been In Salt Lake sines
he left wab at to what the Idaho legislature
had don In regard to the proposed bounty
on beet sugar. The senator left at 6:20

Having known of the gentleman for a
number of years, his reputstlon and the
renown of his really remarkable feats of
deductive reasoning having preceded blm
even this far from Bow street, Omaha
people turned out In goodly numbers last
night to meet Mr. 8herlock Holmes In hie
own proper person. Not only did they
have the pleasure of seeing and hearing
the man whose fame has eclipsed the names
of all thleftakers from Hawkshaw to Old
Sleuth, not to mention one or two whose
light has Illumined some of the dark cor
ners of local underllfe, but also had the
pleasure of seeing him take a couple ot
'shots" at himself with a "dope gun," sod
pull off the arrest of the only criminal
whose trail had baffled blm for a longer
time than that consumed In a journey
from his comfortable quarters In Baker
street to the police headquarters. But
Professor Morlarty was taken, and his gang
broken up, and the whole transaction was
achieved with such neatness and reason
able dispatch as to elicit the mont en
thusiastic approval from the persons who
had assembled to witness the performance.
Sherlock Holmes Is hardly an Ideal hero.
but Mr. Gillette, by his Intelligent con.
keptlon of the Conan Doyle creation, en.
Vows It with an Interest It does not In
trinsically possess, and gives such a fasci
nation to his progress that the auditor
(aid spectator as well waits as eagerly
lor the Inevitable end as ever did a boy
r in a- breathlessly to his "penny dreadful"
Itr "shilling shocker" In anticipation of the
fmouament that never varied. Mr. Gil
Irtte ha broadened In his art. It Is a
i ng step from "Too Much Johnson" to
."Secret Service," and an Immensely longer
l ie from 'Secret service to BnenocR
I olmes." That he has negotiated the dls-
I mee and apparently well In hand, as the
i icing men say. Is an excellent earnest ot
Ills ability to do safely the greater things
e aspires to. Mr. Olllette might easily
t ake his Sherlock Holmes a bully de
I ctlve, a genuine hero for ''below stairs,'
I it be doesn't. He makes him Just what
.' r. Doyle did. rational, human, and even
t imane, and most attractive In his reason
r ileness. Not a single Incident In his
t rilling career Is marked by a discovery
1'iat an ordinarily acute observer would
I )t have made, nor sn action that a com-
I only cautious person would not have
liken. 'But the whole Is so perfect In
(inception and delineation that the result
shallenges the highest admiration. And
tnly admiration was expressed by the very
fashionable audience which filled the Boyd
neater last evening.
Miss Ida Conquest, who Is wsll remem
tared her for her work with John Drew
In "Tha Tyrsnny of Tears," and who later
had the role of Lady Mary In Mr. Mans-
Aeld'a "Beaaealre," succeeding Miss Mol
llson. Is Mr. Gillette's heroine. She Isn't
on the stage a great deal, but 'her liyle
time ts so taken up as to give her an ex
rellent opportunity to show her talent a
an actress. 8he submits to considerable
maltreatment during her first two appear
ances, but in the third, and tidal, she Is
allowed to gain sweet recompense for all
her troubles, by doing a very noble deed
and then disappearing from view locked In
the arms of the man she loves. Her clev
erness Is admitted. So must be the art ot
Miss Cortelyou, who has the really difficult
role of the female criminal. Mr. Percy
gives a good Idea ot the British professional
man In comfortable circumstances, a physl
clan who can afford to have his callers
directed to a rival practitioner while he
busies himself In the affairs of lq ama
teur thief-taker. Griffith Evans. Ralph Del-
more and Qulnton McFherBon not only act
but look the parts they have to assume
and Harry MeArdle, as Billy, the de
tectlve's sstute "buttons," certainly made
a hit with the gallery. The entire cast
Is worthy ot the star, and the setting ot
the piece Is most appropriate, while Its
action Is made well nigh perfect under
the skillful stsge direction of Mr. William
Postanc.
In passing It may not be out of place to
refer to one feature ot tha affair which
la Mr. Gillette's own Idea. That Is the
raising and lowering of the curtain In ab
solute dsrkness. - How much this enhsnces
the artistic effect of the stage picture can
hardly be told. It must be seen to be fully
understood. It is far from being the least
pleasant feature ot the performance.
"Sherlock Holmes" will be given again
this evening and at a matinee and evening
performance on Saturday.

AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA
Councilman Saji Several Ecnl Proposition!
Maj Be Submitted.
ALL DEPENDS ON THE CHARTER BILL
Should It Pan In the Lealslatarc the
t'onnrll Will Pat It Ip to the
People to Say What
to Do.
"Should the present cbsrter bill pass In
the legislature," said a member of the
council last night, "It Is probable that sev
eral bond propositions ' will be submitted
to the people this year. First, a request
will made of the voter to warrant th
lasue of bonds to tske up the present over
lap of $70,000. The bonds will be classed
as floating Indebtedness bonds. Then will
come the request tor $50,000 to build a city
hall and equip ths same. In addition to
these two Items the taxpayers will be
asked to Host $100,000 In bonds for the ex
tension of the present sewer system."
Opinion seems to be divided a to how
the people of South Omaha will take to the
proposed Issue of bonds. The lesse on the
present city ball building expires In De
cember, while the overlap should be taken
care ot at once In order to save Interest. s
Then there comes the sewer question.
The city Is growing rapidly, and bore sew.
er are needed. The principal Idea of vot
ing bonds for a sewer Is to assist the cor
porations In constructing a sewer from the
south line of Swift's plant to the river.
Those who have watched this sewage ques
tion for years assert that a big brick sewer
Is needed, but they say that the price the
city Is expected to pay Is a little high.
In explaining the city hall bonds one
member, of the council said that $50,000
would pay for the site, erect and furnish
the building. In this proposed building it
Is Intended to Include ' police and fire de-
partment headquarters. Almost every ac
tion of the city officials now seems 'to de
pend upon the changer In the chartir made
by the legislature.
(lntblnar Still deeded.
In response to a call sent out by Su
perintendent McLean of the puhllo schools
through the pupils and the press there was
a hearty response yesterday, but there ts
still a demand for mora clothing. The
children's clothing already sent In Is being
distributed -among the poorer classes, and
especially where clothing 1 absolutely
needed. Prof. McLean hopes that the peo
ple of South Omaha will continue to send
In children's clothing, as a number of fami
lies are still known to be in need.
Applications for charity still com in.
Everyone who is in absolute need is being
given fuel and food, but In almost every
instance some official of the city Investi
gates before an order Is Issued. Not long
ago a woman who lives In the southwest
ern part of the city applied to the city
authorities for an order for some groceries.
As she was pretty well known the request
was refused. The women went to
Omaha and secured from the county an or
der for $2 worth of groceries. Armed with
this order she Invaded a South Omaha
grocery store and bought a dosen bananas,
a can of maple syrup, some ginger cakes
and a hag of oranges.
Additional Salts Comlsg.
Preparations are being made by attor
neys to commence suit against the elty
of South Omaha to recover for taxes paid
on seversl paving districts. Yesterday at
torneys: were looking up th histories of
thaee .navlng districts. Those to be at
tacked first are the N street paving and
repavlng, the paving on Twenty-fifth
street from M to O streets and the paving
of Twenty-sixth street from L to Q streets.
The N street paving district was created
by ordinance in 1889, the Twenty-sixth
street district In 1891 and th Twen'y-flfth
street district In March. 1891.
It Is asserted by the attorneys inter
ested that the taxes collected are Illegal
and that those who have paid have grounds
for a suit to recover. In all three uf the
districts mentioned quite a sum has been
paid, but there still remains a balance'
which amounts to considerable. Nat
urally the city will contest.
Grading Besomed Today.
With the higher temperature comes the
order from grading contractors that grad
ing on some of the big jobs In the vicinity
of South Omaha will be resumed today.
The severe weather has put a crust on the
top of the ground, which will have to be
blasted through In order to make an open
ing. Should the weather continue warm not
less than 200 men will resume grading to
day. Wlaters-Hyaca lfaptlals.
