Space, and sense of fairness forbid a
very extended synopsis of Mrs. Stem
houses story of the atroeious Massacre,
i'll 1857, of l27 persons, at Mountain
Mead >ws in Utah In this part of the
world the story is only TOO well known.
The sense Of fairness we mention is
that which should keep the reporter
from making copy out of his notes of
q written lecture. The fact is, that re-
porters had already given us So complete
resume of this very clever discourse as
to place us, III advance. in possession Of
the more striking points of the same.
This lady's presence is pleasing. and her
manner-she is an EugEsLwoman-
grows pleassnter as one forset.. with the
growing interest of the subject, her
rather too conventional inannsrism.
We reckon her description Of the COW
ardly slaughter of the atrocity at Noun
tain Meadows is the most vivid one tY-
tant. She had an intelligent and sym
pathetic audience.
