The Adroit Tscapade OF Mrs. sprague
with Her Three Daughters.


New YoRx. Sept 3.-Ths Sun prints
the following account Of Mrs. sprsgus's
flight: So well were her plans arranged
tha. the Governor and nephew. Arthur
Watson. who were keeping q vigilant
watch upon her movements. knew moth
ing Of her departure until the party had
Q good hours start and were many miles
away. Mr.. Watson. upon finding them
gone. Immediately started down town
with the colorsd cook. and drove to the
dspots and hotels in hopes Of finding
some clew to their whereabouts. Find.
ing none. he turned back. and when hall
way between the depot and pier met the
Governor. who. in hot haste, changed
places with the cook and started at
q brsaknsck pace for Kingston juno
ton. about eight miles away. Leav.
ing the pier at about the same time as
the train for Kingston. he spurred his
horse to . racs.course speed. n then
began u race between the Governor and
the train. be hoping to cut them OF II
they had got on board at any out.of-the.
way place along the line Of that road.
When Conductor Hals's train arrived at
Kingston the Governor was standing on
the platform with o mud.bsdaubed coat
and an excited face. watching for signs
Of the missing party. he accosted Con.
ductor Hale with. "Havs you lugRed on
NV children" Mr.. Hae told him that
be had seen nothing Of them. and. after
looking through the boat train. and in
curing Of the officials at the Kingston
depot. tho Governor started back for
the pier. As was supposed. as all traces
OF his movements were lost from that
point. Willie. his son. who has sided
with his father during I'LL this un.
happy affair. was started Oh on III road
to Sower Hill to Wakefield. but re-
turned unsuccessful in his search. There
are many theories as to the manner In
which Mrs. Sprsgus managed affairs 80
adroitly. II seemed impossible that she
could have taken the cars. for no train
left the pier between 81. and TX o'clock.
and her departure wa discovered DO.
tween those hours. Her son Willie was
at the depot. keeping watch in all direc.
tons, In the interval between the time
Of the discovery aud the departure OF the
last train. The general impression 10
that Mrs. Spragus left in q steam yacht.
and that from the pier Of the New York
boat. A strange looking and very fast
steam yacht was seen towering about
tho pier all the afternoon. and suddenly
vent up to the Newport boat dock, and
after waiting about ten minutes steamed
rapidly away. perhaps with Mrs. Sprasue
on board.

In consideration Of the present status
Of the Mormon question. says the New
York Tribune. the defiant attitude OF the
Saints must DO taken into account.
They are talking rather wildly about
their political rights, and announcing in
their official newspaper that they will
not ''bow down as serfs to Government
appointees, nor lick the bribe-stained
hands Of imported satraps." John Tsy-
lor distinctly informs US that che does
not intend to surrender" not n soli-
tary concubiue. We suppose. 1--WE shall
contend for our liberties" says the organ
OF the patriarchs: Eve propose to pursue
happiness In our own way" OF the
meaning Of this there can DO no doubt.
II Is explicit. IL not alarming. 1t puts
the Mormon Church in u position OF alb
solute hostility to the Government OF
the United States. It is about time.
when matters have reached this pass. to
stop talking abou, religious liberty as
secured by the Constitution.

MINING STOCKS.
How They VIII BE Taxed Under
the New Constitution.

II seems to be the impression of
some stockholders in the mining cor
porations that under the new Cons til
tuition they are to be taxed on the
par value of their stock, no matter
what the real value may be. And
some even suppose they will be taxed
two or three times upon such value
once to the corporations, again TO
each individual stakeholder, and also
upon the mine, if il is in this State.
These ideas have a tendency to dis
courage legitimate mining invest
ments. In fact, there is no ground
for any such construction of the
Constitution.
The fundamental rule of taxation
laid down in the Constitution is that
property shall be taxed in proportion
to its value. If a mining corpora
ton has a nominal capital OF S10,-
100000, represented by 100000
shares which have market value of
only 81 per share, the corporation
may be taxed upon 100000, or the
individual stockholders may be taxed
upon the number of shares held by
each. 1t will be the duty of the
Legislature to say which shall be
done, but the Legislature cannot re-
quiIe both taxes to he levied. nor
that the stock shall be taxed for more
than its actual value.
The total value of mining stocks
at this time is about S40,00O,0O0.
The par value of all the stocks
is more than $4,000, 900, 900, and it
is absurd to suppose the tax would
be levied upon such basis.
There Is in reality no occasion
for any feeling of insecurity or fear
of oppression upon the mining or
other interest. The late election was
triumph of the classes who are
permanently identified with this
State, chiefly as farmers and mo-
chanics-men who are building
up and hope to see built up the
grandest State in tho Union upon
the soil of California. They wish
to sec prosperity in all branches
Of industry and injury to none.-

A Chicken Thief Caught.

About 0 O'Clock last Sunday even
ing disreputable woman known as
Mother" Rogan was caught coming
cut of the hen.house at McJilton's
arastra with chicken under her
cloak. Mr.. Mooney, who caught the
woman, had his suspicious aroused
by seeing her around the arastra at
that late hour, and stopped her as
she went by him. He then called
Mr.. Page, to whom the chicken be-
longed, and who had lost many
chickens during the past few weeks,
and the two then proceeded to ques-
zion her. She admitted having stolen
other birds from various parties, but
as she is very poor and it would only
ne putting the county tn expense to
nave her arrested and tried, Mr..
Page allowed her to go, upon her
promising not to steal any more.
