UTAH's RAILROADS AND MINERALS
The Territory of Utah already has
five narrow-gusge railroads. They
al connect with the Utah Central
and Southern road and, running into
the various mining camps, bring down
the products Of the mines. It is said
that Utah's system of narrow guage
roads Is more extensive and doing
more business than any point in the
world. 1t Is this system of roads that
has 30 rapidly developed her mineral
resources, making her already, accord
lnT TO the statistics of the United
States Commissioner, the third on the
list IN the value of her mineral pro.
dnctionS. She being the Youngest in
mineral discoveries and DEVELOPMENTS
this is remarkable. In 1872. the yield
OF Utah'S bullion amounted to only
2.VoO,OO0; the year following about
A,0J0,O0o last year it had increased
over 100000, coin value; while its
estimated production for the current
year is l. 100000.

PEoFEssoR BoNANY PRICE, after a
careful study of the system Of popular
education in this country and the
manner of putting that system i'll
practical operation, thinks that the
United States have had remarkable
success in training efficient teachers.
This opinion he applies with peculiar
force to female teachers, and lie adds,
that nowhere in the world, at the
present time, is better teaching, more
accurate conception of the nature Of
It's functions, a more agreeable meth
cd OF handling young people, more
thorough sympathy between the minds
Of the teachers and the taught to be
witnessed than among the female
teachers of the United States" This
class of instructors not only have
knowledge, but know how to impart
it to others in a sure and agreeable
manner. The Professor lays down
the principle, as starting point, that
mere learning is not enough to make
4 good teacher. To this must be add
ed "quick sympathy, the ability to
appreciate the mental processes of the
youthful mind and a certain amount
Of enthusiasm"

WHATEVER may be the opinion of
the public relative to the guilt or in
nOcence Of Mr.. Beecher, or the I'M
piled guilt or innocence of Mrs. Titon,
and whatever may be the opinion of
Of the public as to the conduct of the
case, the rulings of the Court, or the
weight of the testimony, there can be
but one opinion as to the attitude of
Mrs. TlltOn in connection with it. and
that is one of pity, be she innocent or
guilty. In February last, General
Tracy said in his opening speech ::
And now, gentlemen, | ask you TO
consider for a moment that Mrs. Til
ton is the true defendant in this case,
she whose lips are sealed and whose
hands are tied, while the battle is
waging over her body. She can make
no outcry, and strike no blow in her
own defense. She can only weep and
pray, as size has done so often already
looking for her dehverance 10 the Al
mighty God and TO the spirit of Justice
which He inspires to the hearts of men.
In the face Of this declaration. when
the opportunity was offered Mr.. Beech
er's counsel of bringing her upon the
the witness stand, they stated that
they did not desire or think it neces-
sary TO unseal Mrs. Tilton's lips or
unite her hands. After the plaintiffs
counsel have piled up a most damsg-
ing array of facts against her, her
own counsel deliberately proceed to
gag her This is simply cruel. Then,
in order to manufacture sympathy for
themselves, and bring q pressure 10
bear upon the jury indirectly, the lat.
ter trick is devised, with the knowl-
edge that the Court will rule out the
communication.-Chicago Tribune.

great superiority of this remedy over anv

tual, circumstance which seemed TO
pay no great compliment TO the FORM

disguised her with their scttisbness
and inhjelity. In the view of know

pear as if intoxicated. At first re.

who pretended still to be sound asleep,
in order to put it into his ear through

the gentleman started up, when hav-
ing procured assistance. he secured
her til morning, and conducted her
before magistrate, who sent her to
prison. The bodies of her six hus-
hands were dug up, and, as marks of
violence were discernabIe upon each

quired great skill in concealing cracks
