THE WILL OF THE PROPHET.

An Estate Worth 100000 Diviacd
Among Seremtecn Wees and Fosty:/ow
Children.
SALT LAKE CITY, September Brig
ham Youngs will was read to day in the
presence of all his wives and children and
few friends. Brigham Young, Jr.,
ssastge o. Cannon and Albert Darlington are
SSN&eH as his executors. The estate is
largely real estate, and is probably worth
S2,000,000. The will was made four years
agp, and his youngest child, born of Mary
Van Cott, was then three years old. Brig
hyn 4oung was the father of fifty-sx chill
dren, Ind left seventeen wives, sixteen sons
and twenty. eight daughters. The will aims
to maize an equitable division Of the prop
erty Between all the wives and children,
with no preference to any.
Most all of them have already had some
thing decided to them. On this a valuation
was set, and it is to be charged to the recip-
ieuts as part of their share, though not nee
cssarily at the valuation he put on it. That
is to be cquitably adjusted, when the estate
is divided, upon the youngest child coming
OF age. Meanwhile the income is to go to
the various mothers according to the num-
ber of their children, aud they can withhold
il if tho children behave badly. All are
provided for as far as their present needs
are concerned. His first wife and Amelia
arc given life interest in the Amelia Pal
acc--a large, modern, new, fine, house but
he is known to have changed his mind about
that, chiefly because they declined it for
reasons best known to themselves, although
nothing in or out of the will has as yet come
to light showing it, and they are not other
wise provided for except by their share Of
the income. Deceased held many interests
in trust for the church and for individuals.
His executors are directed to turn them
over properly. The church is forbidden
by law to hold morc than $50, 900 worth of
property; and so it was largely held by
Brigham Young in trust His friends will
not entertain the notion that he ever abused
that trust. There is no inventory of the
property on the estate, and It is widely scat
tered With the country prosperous and
full of money, it would be worth twice the
above valuation. Recently Brigham Young
endowed an academy with land. at Provo
and another at Logan-thc latter with r.
600 acres. He had determined to endow
one at Salt Lake, but did not live long
enough to do SO. y person present at the
reading of the will says it seemed to be

A SNAKE SToRY.-At Cox & Browns
mill, some three miles from Bolton, small
snake, belonging to the tribe known to
great many as the "king snake" has taken
up his abode regularly, and among the rats
and mice he is a "feil destroyer" He has
become quite tame and gentle, and often,
when the keeper of the mill takes a noon
day nap, his snakeship will crawl around
and over him, and frequently lie quietly
upon his bosom. We have frequently heard,
rather traditionallv, that this species of SER
pent was harmless towards man but was
relentless enemy towards all other serpents,
and as substautiating this idea we will re.
late 4 further incident concerning the snake
under discussion which comes to us through
an authentic source. One day recently a
medium. sized water moccasin was seen lying
on the sand below the mill, and ere long the
king snake was seen approaching him eau
tiousy. He crossed the small stream which
runs from the race below the wheel and very
slowly neared the moccasn, all the while
swaying his head froI the right to the left.
This motion was moro and more contracted
the nearer he approached, until when with
i'll lew inches of his victim, he lay for
some time perfectly motionless. Then sud
',cnly he darted upon the moccasin, caught
him by the back of the neck, and proceeded
to coil himself around bim When he had
made several coils he freed his mouth hold
upon the moccasn's neck and by making
loops of his body and inserting his head
through them, he tied himself in two or
three or four knots around his victims body,
which mus: have been very tight indeed,
for when he had remained there some ten
minutes he loosened himself and crawled
triumphantly back to the mill, leaving the
dead body Of the moccasin upon the sand.
