MURAD Y. is a Tarkish Sultan OF
rather a different type from those who
founded the Ottoman dominion. His
proclamation to the army IN Bosnia
winds up with the words: "Far from
you, shall yet pray for the glory of
Your arms" This decidedly goes be-
yond the famous description of Louis
of France watching his armies from
the safe side of the Rhine, and bewait-
ing his great station which forbade
his crossing the river with them!

The Hon. G. B. Steele, member Of
the Illinois State Senate, took occa-
sion on last Tuesday, at Republion
meeting, short time since, to denounce
Andrew Jackson as "a self-conceited
and bigoted coxcomb." That may be
good Republican doctrine in these days,
but when Old Hickory was alive, it
is about the last thing the Hon. Mr..
Steele would have dreamed Of calling
him. 1t is safe to kick u dead lion,
and s. this bright light of Republican
ism may now call Jackson coxcomb
with impunity.

J. James a. Moore, aged about thirty
five, living on = farm near the Farm
ler,s Institute about fifteen miles soutl
LAFAYETTE, Indiana, committed sui
cidk at the Lake House, u
IN Lafayette last night. lie leaves 2
! wife and three children. No cause Is
known.for the deed. The manner II
which it was accomplished is perhaps
unparalleled in horrid ingenuity.
He came to the Lake House on Sat
urday, and saidhe asperfecting an in
vention, and would probably stay a
week. but would visit his home Mon
day, and prepaid his bill till that time.
He called at the machine shop OF
Hording & Sons, had a large new
broad-ax and two bars, of three inch
wide by one inch thick iron, sixteen
inches long, which he had rivlted to
the head of the ak. On either side,
fastened to these bars, III the shape Of
handle to an ak, he had system of
wooden bars eight feet long, the ex-
IRENE end of which was fastened to a
cross piece, secured to the floor by
hinges. The ak was raised and held
to its nearly perpendicular position
by double cord, fastened to the wall.
Between the cords stood candle ar
ranged so that when the candle burned
down to the cords it would burn them
off, and the ak fall Where the ak
would strike he placed small box,
open on one side, in which, when
found. was his head with some cotton,
which had been chloroformed. His
chin was held up from his neck by a
stick run across the box, through
loles on either side, holding his head
firmly in position. He was strapped
lightly to the floor with two straps,
,ne around bis legs, another about his
arms and breast. The straps were
both screwed to to the floor, making
t impossible to move. It is supposed |
hat he set his AK, lit the candle, and
himself to the floor, put his
read in the box with the chloroformed
:otton, and was probably insensible
when the ak fell The ak and fixings
would weigh about fifty pounds, and
would fall distance of from ten to
fifteen feet. His head was completely
evered from his body, and the ak was
'uried in the boards beneath.-Chica-

BRIGHAM SUED ONCE MORE An i'm
portant lawsuit has been commenced
against Brigham Young at Salt Lake
Mrs. O. Arthur has filed a complaint
in the District Court. She prays that
she may be adjudged the legal owner
of valuable piece of property in
that city. Mrs. Arthur has been in
contiual possession for over twelve
years. The prophet, it is alleged, by
collision and fraud with the Judge of
the Probate Court and ex-Mayor
Wells, succeeded in obtaining a deed
to the lot IN 1875. Mrs. Arthur ad.
mits that she did not file on the lot,
but, as reason, alleges that the min.
ions of Brigham Young threatened
her with bodily injury and bloody
atonement if she filed or attempted to
file on it. Pending the suit she asks
that the rents and issues be placed in
the hands Of a receiver. The proper
ty is valued at over $4,000.

Mr.. DoREtNs hurried into the house
and exclaimed: Il have got another,
my dear-a good one. If you were
on the top of church spire on the
back of goose, how would you get
DOWN." Mrs. Dorkins thought she'd
jump down, slide down the lightning
rod, fly down on the goose, fall down,
and then gave it up. Why, If you
wanted to get down, you could pick
it off of the back of the GOOSE said
Mr.. Dorkins, exultantly.

AFTER both the Republican and
Democratic nominations were made,

Now that Governor Tilden has got
his letter out of the way, he has writ
ten another one just as necessary, but
it will be even more unpleasant read
ing for his opponents than his accept,
ance. In reply to the suit brought by
the st. Louis Alton and Terre Haute
Railroad Company, he says that for
eleven years he acted as counsel for
the purchasing committee and the
road, and in all that time and since
he has never received any compensa-
ton for his services. Now, if the suit
is not political trick, let it be forced
to trial at once and meanwhile give
the Governor the benefit of his denial.

The Bozeman Times says that the
ex-Rev. Agent Anderson has been Sc
eretly circulating paper in that
town. The object Of the paper was
an Endorsement Of Nelse Story. 1t has
come to pretty pass when a soiled
ex-Methodist preacher has to be called
upon to bolster up the character of a
man like Nelse Story. Birds of a

son may be under obligations to serve
his former master for an indefinite
length of time.

THAT which was lost was found yes

That which was lost was found yes
lterday. The famous strawberry
mark, let no guilty man escape,
was found on the back Of the Bar
nard letter, ard the committee on the
whisky frauds, as they gathered
around and saw the Endorsement over
the signature Of the President, recog-
nized the Importance of the discovery.
And vet it was not much of find.
The letter proved to be rambling
communication, in which both sense
and grammar are so badly mixed as
to suggest that the authors brain was
in a similar condition. He says that
he had this Endorsement from the
President twelve years ago: chr.
Barnard has been a sincere friend OF
mine when | wanted friends" ard on
the strength of this goes on to say
that Dyer, Henderson and Newcomb
all hated the President, and would do
to secure the conviction of
any of the thieves. To make the in
dorsement he did on this information
was as natural a thing for the Presi-
dent to do as it was to throw every
obstacle in the way Of conviction,
once he saw his favorite in jeopardy.

THE Day You WERE Born -Here
is an infallible method of discovering
the day of the week on which a given
day of the month any number of years
previous occurred. To the number
representing your age at your next
birthday, add one-fourth for leap years /;
this amount divide by seven, and the
remainder counted back from the DAY
of the week on which you were born
For instance, on your next birthday
you will be24 years old. This divided
by 4, and the quotient, 6, added to
"a, gives 80, the amount, which, d.
vided by I, the number of days in a
week, gives four weeks and the re-
mainder of two days. Now, if your
birthday in 1876 comes on Monday,
count back two days and you have
the day on which you were born, Sat
urday.
