able lack of familiarity with the proper
sound OF the Spanish 81" They give it a
sound similar TO its English one, which is
wrong. la Spanish the above words would
be pronounced "San Huann and "Tebada.' y
The Spanish 'j' is pronounced like the

A MOVEMENT in favor of polyandry has
been coma enced in Arizona, where certain
ladies argue that q woman should have as
many husbands as she can get, or as may
be necessary to her support, and enable her
to sit in silk, and greenbacks have to spend.
Polyandry is neither better nor worse than
polYgamy. If man has the right to plu-
rslity of wives, woman has the right to a
plurality of husbands.

ST. LOUIS, June 30.-Reports and rumors

Lefty. The Board of Health have denied its
I existence, but to-day examined one locality
AN the lower part of the city and found that
Several dea'hs bad occurred, but attributed
d d to unwholesome wafer in wells used by
lySeople in ueighborhoods. Three deaths are
reported to-day, and thers seems to be no
/ doubt that others have occurred within
week. They can all, however, be traced to
the use of impure well water and impru-
dseut diet. There is 20 alarm in the city,
Dosr is there any apprehension that the dis
eilse will become epidemic. The city is in
a unusually clesnly condition, and the

night a terrible explosion of nitro glycerine
and giant powder occurred near the corner
of Taylor and streets, killing ten persons
and wounding many others. A large num-
Der of persons are missing, probably buried

parent cause, the c0ncussion exploding
fifty pounds of powder beneath the rooms.
The following buildings were shattered and
partly thrown TO the ground; Bauk of Cal
ifornis building; the rear of Kennedy s.

tered.
