own aunt-in-lowl The daughter of the de-
ceased wife is half-sister TO all the other
children, legal granddaughter to one step
mother, legal half-sister to the other, and
consequently aunt-in-law TO herself If
they keep on as they have begun they will
eventually produce boy who will be his
own grandfather.
Bishop Samuel Smith, of Brigham city,
has six wives: the first two bearno relation to
him the next two his cousins, and the last
two his neces, daughters of his own brother!
Thus he is father and second cousin to two
of his families, and father and grand-uncle
to two more. The children of his first four
wives are full cousins to his last two wives,
and half-brother and sister, as well as second
cousins to those wives children. The fur
ther relationship is hard TO trace. Let your
puzzle solvers shove their teeth into it.
There are many other cases even more in
tricate. Still eloquent orators in Congress,
and fluent writers for the eastern press,
maintain that the saints of Utah are an un-
common nice lot, Well, | don't quarrel

COLUMBIA DEMOCRAT VOL. XII, NO. o

for the camp sheathed his trusty sword with
out n stain of dishonor upon its bright blade.
| At the disbandng of the forces he wore the
PEASANTS of a major general, and no knight of
the olden time, with his shattered lance and
| splintered spear, was more justly entitled to
meritorious recognition and promotion.
Peace being formally announced, General
Muhenberg returned to his native state, and
with that remarkable power of the adapta-
ion for which Americans are proverbial, de.
serted the standard Of Mars and devoted his
anergies and talents to the practical matters
If quiet civil life. Men of his intellectual
| ralibre, however, are always restive in what
ever sphere their lot is cast, and are seldom
contented with a reserve'position in the midst
of exciting events They yearn "for other
worlds to conquer" and are never followers
but always aggressive leaders. General Muhl-
cnbcrg Immediately entered into political
life and successfully filled several very high
and important State and national positions.
He was first elected member of the supreme
executive council of the State, and subse-
quently in 1885, was chosen vice president of
the State, at the time Benjamin Franklin
was president. On the adoption of the Fed
eral Constitution he was elected a member
Of the first Congress, and was afterw rds re.
elected a member of the third and was also
Of the sixth Congress. In 1897 he was APP
pointed Il presidential elector, and in 1901
was elected United States Senator to repre-
sent the commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
The latter position, however, he resigned in
1902, and was appointed by Mr. Jefferson to
the more lucrative, but perhaps less honora-
bic position Of supervisor of revenue, for the
district of Pennsylvania. In 1905 he was
appointed collector Of the port of philadel-
phia, which position he held at the time of
his death which occurred on the 1st day of
October, 1907, in the sixty-second year of
his age, at his country seat, near the Schuyl-
Kill, in Montgomery county, Pa. General
MuhIenberg, like the other leading members
of that prominent family was strong adj
herent Of the Democratic party and although
severe partisan and unninching personal
and political friend OF Mr.. Jefferson, was as
incorruptabIe in public as he was honest in
private life. He discharged his duties well
in all the numerous military and political
distinctions heaped upon him, and was as
firm in the Cabinet as he was reliant in the
field.

There is vast amount Of truth in this
pithy summary which the st. Louis Repu6-
Hc0R makes Of General Grants six years of
presidential service: "He has established
precedcnts which will veX us as long as the
nation lives, and he has set an example
which embraces all those blunders and crimes
which the ruler of free country should
avoid. He wrought more damage to the re-
publican system in these six years than his
successors can repair in the next fftv and
by his principles and actions has done more
to dcmoraize public sentiment and weaken
public confidence in the stability of free in.
stitutions than all the trials and tyrannies
of civil war, And with these credentials he
has the magnificent impudence to aspire a
third term, aud there are fools and knaves
who are willing to encourage and assist him
in itw

Then as / crept, hand-over. hand, to
the girls side, whipped out my knife
and was cutting hei loose, while her
weak arms clung to me, felt horri-
BILE feeling of despair come over me,
for the boat was leaving us, and 1
knew what a coward | was at heart, as
| had to fight with myself SO as not to
leave the girl to her fate, and leap
overheard to swim for my life. 1 got
the better of it, though-went down
on my knees so as not to see the boat,
and got the poor, trembling, clinging
creature loose.
"Now, my lass" 1 says, "quick r.
and l raised her up; "hold on by the
side while make fast rope around
you."
And then 1 stood up to hail the
boat-the boat as warn't there, for in
those brief moments she must have
capsized, and we were alone on the
sinking steamer, which now lay in the
trough of the sea.
As soon as | got over the horror OF
the feeling, sort of stony despair
little pale, appealing face at my side,
looking to me for help, that brought
the manhood back, and in saying en-
couraging things to her / did myself
good.
My first idea was TO make something
that would float US, but gave that up
directly, for could feel that was
helpless, and getting the poor girl
more into shelter, l look bit of to-
bacco in a sort of stolid way, and sat
down with cork life.buoy over my
arm-one which had cut loose from
where it had hung forgotten behind
the wheel. ..
But l never used it, for the storm
went down fast, and the steamer float.
ed still, water-logged, for three days,
when we were picked up by passing
vessel, halfstarved, but hoping. And
during that time my companion had
told me that che was the attendant of
one of the lady passengers on board,
