BRIGHAM YOUNG DETERMINED TC
HAVE PEACE IN ms FAMILY.

The elopement oe Brigham Young's
seventeeth wife, reported by tele
graph few days ago, was not with
out encouragement, it seems, from
the autocrat of the Mormon Church
though he did not design or consent
that she should go so soon. A Salt
Lake paper gives the following ex-
tract from one of Brigham Young's
recent sermons: 80 .,- E.. -.t
Z i wish my women to understand
that what am going to say is for
them as well as others, and ! want
those who are here to tell their sis
tiers yes, all the women in the com
munity. / am going to give you
from this time to the 9th of October
next for reflection, that you, may
determine whether you wish to stay
with your husbands or not, and /
am going to set every woman at lib
erty, and say to them now go your
way. And my wives have got to
do one of two things, either round
up their shoulders to endure the
Affections of this world, and live
their religion-that is, polygamy-
or they must leave; for l will not
have them about me. / will go in
to heaven alone, rather than have
scratching and fighting about me

want to go somewhere or do some
thing to get rid of the winners. | do
not want them to receive part of the
truth and spurn the rest outof doors.
Let every man thus treat his wives;
keeping raiment enough to cover his
body, and say to your wives take all
that have and be set at liberty ;but
if you stay with me you shsll com
ply with the law of God in every re-
spect, and that, too, without any
murmuring or whining. You must
fulfil the law of God in every respect

Gratifying intelligence from St.

train robbers, have been traced inte

q good prospect of their capture.
The punishment, dealt out to them
should be death. The obstruction
of a railway train means, if nothing
occurs to prevent the full force OF

A Lady Saved by Her Bustle.

An incident attending a ride on
Sunday last is told by the Lancas.
ter Penn. E1press, the parties be
ing Mr.. Stephen Musser, of Marietta
and a lady from Philadelphia. The
lady held the reins, and IN round
ing curve turned too suddenly, re-
sulting in tilt of the buggy which
threw her headforemost from her
seat. Her body had already left the
buggy, and she was descending upon
her head between the wheels, when
Mr.. Musser, with that quickness of
thought that comes to sume people
in the hour of danger, seized her by
her hustle with his left hand, while
he grasped the reins and checked
the horse with the right hand. The
hustle was fortunately well secured,
and the lady was saved.

A COOP AMeNpmENT.'

The Constitutioaal Convention of
Pennsylvania has taken the Harris
burg Legislature by the horns. For
a dozen years past the Assembly of
Pennsylvania has rivaled and often
surprised even Albany in the un-
blushing venality and corruptness
of its enactments. The Constitu-
tional Convention has determined
to. stop all this and has .-decreed as
an amendment to. the Constitution q
remarkable oath, to be filed at the
Office of the Prothonotary of the
county in which the Senator or Rep
fesentative resides, within twenty
days after the final adjournment of
the Assembly. If the oath is not
filed as prescribed, the Senator or
Representative so failing is forever
afterward disqualified from holding
any Office of trust or profit under the
Commonwealth. The oath is as fol-
lows:

Still the amendment is a good one

wealth is mainly in real estate and
its revenues; vanderbilt's is mainly

THE voeT ExTRADrrIoN CASE.

The case of Carl Vogt, over which
so much controversy has lately oc-
CURED is briefly this: Carl Vogt, a
Prussian subject, committed murder
and arson in Belgium and had fed
to this country. We have no extra
dition treaty with Belgium, but have
one with Prussia. At the time the
treaty was made there was, and still
is, a Prussian law providing that q
subject of that Government may be
tried, on its own territory, for a
crime committed in another country
Upon this law Prussia demanded
that Vogt be handed over to her for
trial. The case came before Judge
Blatchford, who sustained the de-
mand. The State Department,how
ever, submitted the case to the At
torney- General for his opinion
which, with apparent good law and
common sense, ,reverses Judge Blatch
ford's decision. The gist of the
opinion is that extradition can only
take place with that country where
the crime was committed, and that
the Prussian law only applies to
cases where the prisoner is already
in custody, and is no basis for de
mand of extradition.
The opinion seems clearly right.
A very similar case might arise in
our own country. By the statutes
of many of our Western States a
man who steals horse in one State
and escapes to another, may be tried
in the State where he is caught, with
out reference to the place where the
crime was committed. Nevertheless
if a citizen of Missouri were to
steal q horse in Kansas, and escape
to Nebraska "a requsition of the Gov
ernor OF Missouri on the Governor
Of Nebra ska, for the body of the
criminal, would effect nothing but
ridicule of the requistor.

After suffering long time from
the attack, and having to a consid
erable degree recovered, he expert
enced suffering even from the rays
of the moon. This ledt him to
reflection. After much research,
he discovered that the injury came
from the chemical ray, and not from
the heat ray. He was guided to
this by observing the fact that a
photograph could not be taken
through hollow glass. According
ly he lined his hat with two Innings

chemical ray and one of green to ar
rest the heat ray. Thus prepared,
he went where the rays of the sun
were most intense with perfect i'm
puinty. 1t is wellknown that the
negro is seldom or never sunstruck.
The color of the skin over the skull
being orange yellow, may assist in
accounting for the fact. Ipractised

TWO CHILDREN KILLED INSTANTLY
- BY LIGHTNING. O

Major G. W. Waltham, who came
into the city yesterday evening. was
kind enough to come to the Gazette
office and give US the particulars OF

which has ever happened IN Kay
County. The parties concerned In

Gently removed to the southern part
OF Ray County from Ohio. Mr..
Smales had left the house to take
care OF some stock which were wait
ing for protection from the coming
storm, and Mrs. Smales bade the
young ones to keep in the house
while she attended to some domes
tic duties. Willie Smales, about
four year old, and Evelyn, his sister
aged two, attracted by the clouds
which were coming in large num-
-bers, went to the front door of the
house to watch them. Close to the
window was a steel plow upon which
the children sat, and there innocent
OF the impending danger, they saw
the lightning flash, and enjoyed its
brilliant colors as it flew across
their childish faces. It was about
O'Clock in the afternoon, and al
though the clouds had shut out the
sun to a great degree, yet there was
enough light left for the loving faith
to observe the danger his children
were in. He called to them from
the barn, which was some distance
off TO go into the house, but the
thunder's roar silenced his voice
Then he started himself for the
house, followed by two of his farm
hands, who, fearing the storm, had
left the stock to take care of them
selves. just as Mr.. Smales was with
Inn about twenty feet of his children
a vivid flash of lightning crossed
his eyes, and he was so badly stun
ned that he could aot move. When
the farm hands reached the house
they beheld a terrible sight. Viii
lie and Evalyn were both prostrated
to the ground, and their clothing
was literally torn from their bodies.
The faces were black, and the hair
of the little girl was singed to a crisp.
The plow upon which they were
sitting was turned over and the
plow-share laid across the cheek of
