Books in the Dark Ages.

So precious were books in the dark ages
that donations of them are recorded as acts
of signal generosity deserving perpetual
remembrance. In 900 the King of North
cumberland gave 800 acres Of land for one
book containing the history of the world.
A countess of Apjou gave 200 sheep and a
large parcel of rich furs for a volume Of
homilies; 120 crowns were given for a
single book of Livy; 100 crowns of gold
for Concordance, and forty crowns for a
satirical poem called the Romance OF
Rose" In 1920 Latin Bible was valued
at $50, at time when two arches of Lon
don Bridge were built for less money; at a
time too, when the. wages of a laborer
were three halfpence day, and when of
course, it would have cost such man fiji
teen years of labor to buy a Bible, which,
after all, being in Latin, he could not have
read.

A SaUacious Mouse.

While Captain Giles, who is employed at
the Kansas & Missouri Bridge, was crack
ing hickory nuts Monday afternoon in the
wa,ch-ofice, at one end of the bridge, his
attention was arrested by the appearance OF
several mice on the floor looking after the
discarded nutshells, which yet contained
small particles of the kernals. Thinking
to watch their maneuveres, he stepped
outside the door of the Office. He did not
remain long until one Of the little animals
took up one of the shells, and climbing a
considerable distance up the, wall, let ii
fall to the floor. This was repeated sew
eral times until the small portion Of the
kernal which had eluded human research
had become loose enough to be extracted
readily. When through with one piece,
another was taken up and carried through
the same process, showing clearly to the
watcher that the first instance was. not a
mere accident.

there one might see the gradual decline ol
the country as it sloped downwad toward

It's Genuineness Questioned.

Several of our exchanges, not at all disposed to shield Brigham Young from complicity in the Mountain Meadows massacre, doubt the genuine ness of the order, or purported copy oi it, recently published which directly showed the great Brigham to have or dered the massacre The following from the Los Angeles Republican, oi March g, shows why the genuineness of the order is doubted:
 A telegram from Tucson gives Us what k supposed 10 be a copy of The original order regarding the massacre of the emigran,s at Mountain Mead OwS. The telegraph has made a mi 'ake in the date of the order, or the story of lhe finding of such a document IS untrue.
