ONE Christmas Eve, few years ago, lit- tie girl wandered from store to store trying to sell a picture, and on the sale of that pic ture depended her mothers and her own dinner. But people were busy closing up their affairs for the evening and had DO time to observe the lean, imploring face of the poor child, who timidly aud implorinSly en- deavored to draw attention to the painting, which was of such vast interest to her. At last footsore and desparing, before giving up her venture as lost, she passed ilto the Bank of California. Mir. Ralston saw her, kindly asked her errand, inquired about her sick mother, and then put his hand in his pocket and gave her sum ample enough not only for food and fire, but also to defray many ot the obligations that pressed upon the family: Nor did his charity end here. He procured them employment and that family is now in comfortable circumstances, but never will forget the saving hand that was extended to them on that Christmas Eve. How many we'll authenticated anecdotes of benevolence of that most charitable of men are in the mouths of those who never felt his worth until he was lost to them forever.-lOakland Tribune.

TIE disagreement of the jury in the Lee case iisappoints but few persons who under stand the radical defects in our jury law. By tine provisions of the "Poland Bill" the jury list is made up one-half of Mormons and one-half of Gentiles, an arrangement which no fair r-minded man could object to, It the former were fit to be entrusted with the rights and duties of American citizens. But their conduct in the jury box shows their utter unfitness for the exercise of any such trust. A Latter day Saint regards himself as one of Gods peculiar people, and the ever lasting priesthood are accepted as infallible oracles of God. The dis'oyalty of these lat ter is well known. Flcshy laws they affect to despise; the entire human race is under condemnation and will shortly be destroyed from off the face of the earth, that room may be made for the universal reign of the Saints. Mir. Baskin hit the nail on the head Tn hiS closing argument for the people. "lf there IS a man on this jury," said he, ''who has been through that sink of inquity-the Endow- mcnt House, andiwears endowment garments on his limbs, he will not find verdict accor- ding to the law and the testimony. He has parted with his manhood; when he swore those lewd and blasphemous oaths which blind him lifelong slave to the Mormon hierarchy, he divested himself of his individ. uality. and is under obligation to think and act as he is instructed. -[Salt Lake Fri, tune.

THE OUTSIDE DOG IN THE FIGHT

You may sing of your dog, your bottom dog Or of any dog that you please; I 20 for the dog, lhe nice old dog,
 That knowingly takes bis ease, And wacging his tail outside the ring,
 Keeujng al ways HIS bone in sight, Cares not apin in his sound old head,
 For either dog in the nght, Not his is the bone they are fighting for,
 And why should my dog sail Tn, With nothing 10 gain but certain chance To lose his own precious skin. There may be a few perhaps who iaii
 To see it quite in this light; But when the fur flies had rather DC
 The outside dog in the tSht- know there are dogs-iDjudicious doSs- That think it is quite the thlDS To take the part of one of the dogs,
 And go yelping into the ring. But care not pin what all may say
 In regard to the wrong or the nght' Nv money goes, as we'll as my song,
 For the dog that keeps out of the nSh'.
