Says the Salt Lake Tribune OF the 9TH,
by a messenger from the prophet
Brigham requesting the Oriental
Prince to call on the Western Prophet.
His Highness remarked that it was not
etiquette in Japan for persons Of high
rank when among strangers. to make
lcalls, but awaited the calls Of people
among whom they may sojourn. The
Prophets messenger replied the Seer
and Revelator was very anxious to see
the representatives Of his Majesty, but
was sorry to admit that It was impos-
Islble for him to do so Immediately.
The Royal Ambassador inquired why
the Prophet could not call. 10 this
the messenger replied that the Prophet
was unwillinsly confined to his room
I'm charge Of q Federal officer. The
Prince saw the point at once, and with
a irown said: ave came to the

he would like for us to call on q man
who had broken the laws Of his coun7

A CITIZEN OF SoNoMA AND THE IA

out rs soon as the rest OF the passen-

Der. When he entered the supper-room
tho seats were all occupied, and there
was a slim show for n hungry traveller.
Nothing daunted, however, he walked

PRESERVING GRArEs.-A recent pro
cess for preserving grapes through thu
winter, introduced by n. Tremmellat
3ot Marseilles, is commended In agri
cultural journals as answering Its pur.
'pose better than many Of tho improved
methods Of the day. This depends
upon tho fact, In the ordinary storage
of grapes, a portion Of the winter, botl
|of the stem and Of the berry, ia lost by
evaporation, so that they dry up unles:
the moisture is restored to them. Tc
Iobviate this difficulty, the punches are
lcut In such q manner as to leave q con.
siderable portion ofthe adjacent woody
part of the vine, and are then suspend
ed over a vessel filled with water, SC
that while hanging near the surface Of
the water the ends OF the stems are i'm.
mersed. AS the moisture eyaporates
from tho grapes 1t is restored by capil:
Harry absorption through the stem, and
mo change takes place. BY means OF
the arrangement thus indicated, NJ.
rremellat has succeeded In keeping
grapes from one year over Into another
fresh and fair as In tho moment OF
gathering, and his method Is now used
ON a large scale In Paris and else
where.

HooDLUM SLINo.-There is a sling
used by boys iu this city, says the San
francisco Bulletin, which is not only a
source OF great annoyance, but there Is
a great deal Of danger attached to lts
use. 1t is made Of wire and India ruiz
Der, and throws pen, with which 1t Is
usually charged, with force sufficient
to drive It through plate glass from a
distance Of several yards. In an ex-
pertinent at the establishment where
it Is made, it drove a buckshot through
IA half-inch plank. Armed with this
weapon the school boys are a source Of
dread to both pedestrians and those
who ride, and in several instances have
blood with their shots from
those they hit. Something should be
done to prohibit or limit the use Of
this dangerous plaything, or some ssri-
Gus accident will happen.

In a recent letter to the New 70

IL a recent letter to the New Yorl
Independent, Father Hyaclnthe set
forth his religious position with grea
3clearness. While preferring Protest
sntism to ultramontane Papism Of tht
adherents Of Infallibility, he objects t.
the former that while exalting the
Bible it regrets the traditions which
compliment and explain the sacred
writings. He will, therefore, remain
a Catholic, because Catholicism, right.
|ly understood, upholds the whole Of
Revelations, written and spoken, and
is founded not OH the individual con
science, but the universal and constant
teaching of the Church. Whether the
good Father can find anywhere, except
I'm his own Imagination, any such con-
|~,istent teaching, is for him and not for
|uS to determine.
