MEETING WILL BE HELD
Salt Lake City has been selected as the meeting place for the next reunion of the Grand Army of the Republic. The city is quaint, beautiful and full of historic interest. It is the capital of Utah, the Zion of the Mormons, the one city in the west to which history, romance and religion beckon the sight-seer. s In 1847 the founders, a handful of pioneers, the Immortals of the Mormon people, ended their memorable pilgrimage through more than 1,000 miles of unbroken wilderness and laid in the desert solitudes: the foundation of a great intermountain empjre. Today it is the center of a vast region filled with wealth and diversified resources and the scene of activity in mining, manufacturing and commercial affairs. -

Temple Square. To Left, Assembly H Right, the |
architecture of half a century ago standing in the shadow of stately modern structures. ,
Almost the first thing the visitor does upon reaching Salt Lake City is to visit the Temple, which stands within sight and sound of the business center. Work began on the Temple with the first beat of the. city’s heart and continued unremittingly for 40 years. It cost over $4,000,000 and is one of the notable buildings of. the continent. It stands upon an eminance and towe bove all surrounding objects, its Swhole form outlined against the sk¥ line before any other sign of the city can be seen. Its exterior is graven with the curious symbols of the Mormon creed, and its loftiest spire is surmounted, fully 215 feet above the earth, by the golden figure of Moroni, the angel who revealed the religion of the Latter Day Saints to Joseph Smith, The interior of the Temple lis sacred; none but those of the faith are ever admitted through its iron doors., Within it are celebrated marriage and baptismal rites, and many ‘are the mysteries its granite walls conceal. )
Within the high wall that surrounds the Temple stands also the great tur-tle-shaped Tabernacle, the general assembly hall of the Saints. This building, in which the business meetings of the Grand Army of the Republic will be held, is one of the most curious structures 'in America. It is an im-
HAS MADE MANY RICH MEN
Northern Idaho Well Called C/l'fidle\ . of Millionaires. ; The famous Coeur d’Alene mining district of northern Idaho might well be called the millionaires’ factory of America. Rich men are in the making there: Charles Sweeney, a deputy marshal during the Coxey labor troubles of a dozen years ago, now president of the Federal Mining and Smelting Company, the four mines of which, although three were closed the latter part of the year, earned a net profit last year of $1,696,707; C. H. Reeves, once a barber of Wallace, now a millionaire of Spokane, the mine which his son-in-law located paying regular monthly divideads of $96,000; August Paulson, a few years ago, driving a milk wagon for $4O a month, now erecting 111-story steel-con-erete office structures and able to write his check—and have it cashed—in six numerals; L. W. Hutton, once a railroad engineer, his wife the proprietress of a village eating house, to-
mense auditorium, elliptical in shape, and seats 8,000 people. It is 250 feet long by 150 feet wide and 80 feet in height. Its self-supporting wooden roof rests upon pillars or buttresses of red sandstone, which stand 10 to 12 feet apart in the whole circumference of the building. The pillars support wooden arches ten feet in thickness and spanning 150 feet. These arches are put together with wooden pins, there being no nails nor iron of any kind used in the framework. This is due to the fact that when the building was constructed, 1865-67, there were no railroads across the plains, and all the manufactured material used in the construction had to be hauled by express from the Missouri river.
The acoustic properties of this enormous assembly hall are the marvel of builders. At a distance of 200

feet the dropping of a pin can be distinctly heard and a whisper is audible 200 feet away from any standpoint in the building. ; In the west end of this building is the great organ, conceded by visiting musicians to be one of the finest instruments in America, if not in the world. It was constructed over 30 years ago entirely by Utah artisans and mostly from native materials. The dimensions of the organ are 30 by 33 feet, and the front towers have a height of 48 feet. It has 110 stops and accessories, and contains a total of over 5,000 pipes, ranging in length from one-quarter of an inch to 32 feet. During the summer season an organ recital is given daily at 12 o’clock noon, by Prof. John J. McClellan, the Tabernacle organist, and recognized as one of the leading organists of the world.
In the immediate vicinity of Temple square are many interesting features pertaining to the Mormon faith. Opposite the Temple stands the Tithing vard, where all faithful Saints are supposed /to pay every year one-tenth of their earnings and profits to the church The wisdom of the Girand Army delegates in selecting Salt Lake City for a meeting place will be apparent to every visitor, for not only is the city unique ' beyond compare, but the routes of travel through the canyons and over the passes of the Colorado Rockies make the journey going and returning the most interesting of any railroad trip in America. ;
gether now accredited people of great ‘wealth—the record might be extended to include several dozen names, : In spite of the slump in the price of lead last fall the net profits of the five big mining companies in the district amounted last year to $5,119,803, adding in the majority of instances to the great wealth of the men and women who a decade ago were in humble walks of life, 9 The records of this millionaires’ factory of the northwest are crammed full of picturesque, even romantic pages. Fact is stranger than fiction throughout the entire story.—Technical World. India to Have Steel Plant.. Wealthy natives, of India have formed. a company with $7,500,000 capital to erect at Bomhay blast furnaces and a complete steei piant for the utilization of native ores. }
Defeat can’t touch the man who won't admit it.
NEW RECORDS ARE SET BY AMATEURS SENSATIONAL PERFORMANCES REGISTERED DURING OUTDOOR SEASON OF 1908. THE 100-YARD MARK EQUALED Fine Sprinting of.J. A. Rector—New World’s Record in Discus Throwing for Martin Sheridan—-Great Hurdling of A. B. Shaw and Shot Putting by Ralph Rose. ;
Several new world’s A. A. U. records were made during the outdoor season of 1908. While the season was not 80 prolific of new marks as some of the former years, the -performances were decidedly sensational. One ‘of the earliest of the season’'s performances was the sprinting of J. A. Rector, who equaled Daniel J. Kelly’s record of 100 yards in 9 3-5 at a dual meet between Johns Hopkins university of Baltimore and the University of Virginia atCharlottesville, Va., May 16. Rector ran in the colors of the University of Virginia, and as the result of that performance represented’ America at the Olympic games in London last summer. ‘? Forest Smithson of the Multonomah A. C. of Portland, Ore., made g record of 0:6 2-5 in a 50-yard hurdle race over hugh hurdles. Smithson tied the world’s record of 0:06 4-5, made b Walter Steffens at Chicago in 1904, and subsequently in a special 50-yard race with Eberle Kuykendall of the University of Oregon, lowered the record two-fifths of a second.
Martin Sheridan, in addition to his world’s record for throwing the discus, Greek style, received another distinction in the shape of a new record of 140 feet 5% inches at the Olympie style, circle and discus, made at the Pastime oval October 4, 1908. At the A. A. U. meet at Travers island on September 19 M. F. Horr of Syracuse threw the discus, from a 70-foot circle, 132 feet Ilinches, which will probably be accepted. In hammer throwing John Flanagan of the Irish-American A. C., made some astonishing performances. At Celtic park on August 30 he is credited with throwing the missile 179 feet 83, inches, nearly six feet farther than it has ever been thrown before. But there may be a question about the mark, as also with the 175 feet 13 inches performance he is supposed to have made at Torrington, Conn., on June 19. : , B. F. Sherman of Harvard university who was a member of the Olympic team at London, eliminated two records that have stood for 20 years. The 18-pound hammer he sent 131 feet % inch on June 17, lowering James S. Mitchel’s record by more than 12 feet, and at the same time threw the 21-pound hammer 109 feet ‘ll4 inches, nearly 20 feet farther than C. J. Queckberner sent it at Staten island on November 17, 1888. : Walter R. Dray of Yale university vaulted 12 feet 9% inches at the Amateyr Athletic union 'games at Danbury, Conn., the meeting being held under the 'auspices of the Danbury gymnasium. The old record, 12 feet 5% inches, was made by Dray at New Haven in May, 1907, but at the Olym-. pic try 6uts in Boston last June A. C. Gilbert, also of the Yale track team, vaulted 12 feet 7% inches. At the -meet in Pittsburg on June 20, in which nearly all the famous athletes in the country competed, Gilbert vaulted 12 feet 61 inches. - One of the most sensational of the year's performances was the hurdling of A. B. Shaw of Dartmouth college. At the intercollegiate championships at Philadelphia on May 30 Shaw covered the 120 yards over the high hurdles in 0:15 1-5. This equaled the world’s. record of "A. C. Kraenzlein of the %VUniversity of Pennsylvania' in 1898, and established a new intercollegiate record. At ‘Chicago on September 12, running in the colors of the Chicago -Athletic association, Shaw won the 120-yard hurdle race in the wonderful time of 0:15. 2 :
In shot putting Ralph Rose, the Californian, created a new record with the 12-pound shot, putting the iron globe 57 feet 3 inches at Celtic park, August 29. The old record was 55 feet 1134 inches, made by himself- at Travers island last year. With a 14-pound shot he is credited with 58 feet 4 inches, and with the 16-pound shot, 50 feet 134 inches. The latter performances, however, are questionable. :
The 52-pound weight John Flanagan threw 39 feet 11% inches, while Andrew J. Glarner of the Olympic club of San Francisco wiped Melvin W. Sheppard’s 900-yard run off the books by covering the distance in 2 minutes 1 2-5 seconds. In performances on the parallel bars John N. Woodside at the meet of the Holy Trinity Athletic association made a new record for the dip on the parallel bars, dipping 60 times, the old record being 58 times.
'!gg»i;’,l ' 1 ‘__b \' \ O |/ Fielding Yost, the Michigan coach, says that Bill Holienbach of Penn is the best fullback of the year, and one of the very best the game has yet produced. A New York writer ranks the big elevens as follows: Yale, Harvard, Dartmouth, Penn, Carlisle, Annapolis, Princeton, Cornell, Brown, West Point, Syracuse. : Glen Warner is mentioned as a possible successor to Head Coach Williams at the University of Minnesota. . If the Gophers can move that magnificent home which has just been completed for the Carlisle instructor down east, and will guarantee him about $lO,OOO a year for life, he will probably consider the c¢hange. s . Balenti, the Indian quarterback. is also a great baseball player, and may be given a trial by one of the big league teams next spring. :

The constantly increasing consumption of nuts throughout the TUnited States augurs well for a better appreciation of their food value. ' The time when nuts were considered merely as a luxury, or as something to be eaten out of hand at odd times, is” rapidly passing away. In earlier days the native hickories, hutternuts, walnuts, chestnuts, pecans, and many other nuts feund in the United States were to be had in country regions for the gathering and were of no commercial importance. On ‘the ‘other hand, the English walnuts (to give them their most common name), almonds, cocpanuts, etc., brought from other cofléries, were relatively expensive luxuries. ' v Some nuts, like the native hazelnut and beechnut, still have practically no commercial value and, though palatable, are almost never offered for sale, doubtless because they are so small and difficuft to gather in quantity. The chinquapin, a small nut allied to the chestnut, finds a limited sale in southern cities, bu% is doubtless seldom if ever seen in other markets. In general, however, conditions have changed and our principal native nuts are now staple market .commodities and bring good prices. At the same time, owing to changes in market conditions, and te the growing of foreign nuts in quantity in e this country, the price of the imported nuts has dropped so that they are well within the reach of the majority.
From available statistics it appears that in 1905 the total quantity of almonds, cocoanuts, Brazil nuts, filberts, peanuts, walnuts and other nuts, shelled and unshelled, imported into the United States was, in round numbers, 86,238,000 pounds, with a value of $6,138,000. In 1905 the total almond crop in California reached 4,200,000 pounds and the walnut crop 12,800,000 pounds. The richest yield of peanuts was reported from the southern states, chiefly Virginia, Georgia and Tennessee, and amounted ¢o 225,000,000 pounds. ! The total quantity of home-grown nuts, including both native and introduced varieties, must far exceed the quantities imported, but in the nature of the case no estimates of the total quantities gathered and eaten are procurable.- When we consider the constantly increasing demand for nuts and the large quantity which we import from other countries, the possibilities of the industry for the American nut grower are obvious. As the use of nuts has increased, many persons have turned their attention to the growing of native and foreign nuts on a commercial scale. This work has been forwarded by the department of agriculfure, through the bureau of plant industry, and by the California, Florida, Michigan and other agricultural experiment stations. With nuts, as with other crops, it has been found that, by selection and breeding, improved varieties are obtainable, of larger size, better flavor, thinner shells, or other desirable characteristics.
The increased demand for nuts is due in the main to two causes, namely, a better appreciation of their appetizing qualities and the numerous ways in which they form a palatable addi-
GHANCE FOR PLAIN GIRLS
Business Men Put Ability Away Ahead of Good Looks. “It is a great mistake to suppose that beauty cuts a big figure in the employment of stenographers,” said a business man of large experience; “the ‘pretty typewriter’ is a stock phrase of the funny man -and the comic papers of the present day, just as the ‘pretty.govemess’ was in tha 40s and the ‘pretty milliner’ in the 60s, ‘ but as a matter of fact good looks are rather a detriment to a woman] when applying for a position in an office, than otherwise. No one is likely to excel in more than one profesgion, and since being pretty is a profession in itself, the general feeling is that if a woman has succeeded in that she won’'t be good for much else. The chances are that her brain will be occupied with her pompadourand her highly polished nails, to the excluglon of more important things. Another reason why the pretty ;!tenog-i rapher is at a discount is that most of
tion to the diet of the average family, and, secondly, to their use by the vege: tarians and persons of similar belief—a group small in proportion to the total population, but still fairly large numerically—who use quté, and more particularly the peanut, as a substitute for meat and other nitrogenous and fatty foods. : Even a cursory examination of the journals devoted to cookery and other branches of home economics and of the various books which are published on the subject will show the fairly general use of nuts for making soups, for stuffing poultry, for nut- butters, nut salads, cakes, salted nuts, and other dishes, and- indeed several volumes devoted exclusively to nut cookery have been published. - Many special nut foods, such as malted nuts, meat substitutes, ete., have been devised and extensively advertised by the manufacturers for general use in the diet and for the special needs ‘of vegetarians and fruitarians. It is said that some of these American nut products contain soy beans, but apparently the peanut plays a very important part in their composition. In either case, since the peanut, like the soy bean, is a legume, these preparations might more properly be compared with the bean cheese and other soy-bean products, so much used in 'China, Japan and, other eastern countries, than with such nuts as the walnut, almond or cocoanut. -
The edible portion of nuts, with few exceptions, is very concentrated food, containing little water and much fat. Ir general, nuts are also rich in protein. Those ranking hf‘ighest in fhis nutrient, the pignolia, a variety} of pife nut imporéed from Spain, with 33.9 per cent., the peanut with 29.8 per cent., and the butternut with 27.9 per cent. protein, .surpass most ordinary animal or vggetable foods in this respect. . The almond, beechnut, and pistachio, with 21.4 per cent., 21.8 per cent., and 22.6 per cent., respectively, compare favorably with dried legumes: The Brazil nut contains 17.4 per cent. protcin, the filbert 16.5 per cent.; the walnut 18.2 per cent. the hickory nut 15.4 per cent., the pinenut 14.6 per cent., the pecan 12.1 per cent., and the dry chestnut but 10.7 per cent. The dry acorn, fresh chestnut and cocoanut, with 6.4, 6.4 and 6.6 per cent., respectively, are not as rich in: protein as bread. : ' :
Of the nuts here included the richest in fat is the pecan, with an average of 70.7 per cent, but seven other varieties—the Brazil nut, butternut, candlenut, filbert, hickory nut, pinenut and walnut—contain upward of 60 per cent. The almond, cocoanut and pistachio yield between 50 and 60 per seent. of this nutrient.. The beechnut, peanut, and pignolia contain about 50 | per cent. - In other words, in 13 of the varieties of nuts appearing in the foregoing table, half or more of the edible portion is fat or oil Only a few of the commonly used| nuts yield any notable amounts of total carbohydrate matter, the ’dry' chestnut, with 78 per cent, rating highest. Beechnuts, pinenuts and pea-‘ nuts have about 18 per cent. The quantity of starch found is, with some xceptions, quite small, ranging from three per cent. in theé beechnut to 27 per cent. in, the chestnut, §
