Mormon IMathematical Dis
COvery.
TSall Lake Herald.

On Tuesday. May 80, 1876. Professor
Orson Pratt, ST., made a highly inlpor-
tant discovery in the department of math-
Iematics. In the history Of mathematical
science it is well known that for ages. a
general solution of the cubic EQUATION.
when all the roots are real and equal has
been sought for in valn.K, Centuries ago
Cardan succeeded in giving general So
luton when two of the roots are imac-
mary but his formula was wholly useless
and irrcducibe when the equation con-
talned three real and unequal roots.
Professor Pratt's general solution givea
the three real and unequal roots in terms
of the general co efficients, with the same
rlsor and distinctness as those attending
the solution of the Quadratic. In the
great army of the most profound mathe-
nlat!clans who have embellshed modern
science some eminent algenraists have
pretended to demonstrate the impoisibilitv
Of such solution. But Prof. Pratt's solu-
ton has forever proved the incorrectness
Of such pretended negative demonstra-
lions. This general solution will hayea
very important and useful bearing upon
the future advancement OF algebralcal
analysis.

the act. After watching for several days
she heard him come in one evening, and
quietly pass into the kitchen. Now Katy
was out that evening, aud the kitchen
was dark. Burning with jealousy. the
wife took some matches in her hand and
hastily placing shawl over head. as
Katy sometimes did, entered the kitchen
by the back door and WAS almost imme
diately seized and embraced in the most
ardent manner. With her head almost
bursting with rage and Jealousy, the in.
