THE SUPREME COURT.
The Suits and Other Utah
Cases.

Washington, 26.-Upon his return
from Minnesota Attorney General Dew
ems will begin the preparation of SIX or
eight of the more important government
cases which the Supreme Court, accord
ing to its practice, will give special pre-
cedence over the regular docket at the
beginning of the session in October The
principal cases will be the Miles case,
involving what questions may be asked
jurors, and the mode in which jurors
should be emparelled, where there is
suspicion that jurors are themselves liY-
ing in polygamy. This case must be
disposed of before the court can proceed
with safety in the trial Of the cases
directly testing the laws to break up
polygamous marriage; the application
for mandamus against the secretary of
the interior to compel him TO deliver
patents TO certain pre-emptors, the ground
pre- empted being within the limits of
towns which had been incorporated by
the Utah Legislature; also two cases
under the postal laws, involving the
right Of the postmaster general, who is
anxious 10 have these cases disposed of,
so that important questions dependent on
the result may be determined.

TIE PRESIDENTS MISSION
Ii is a Political end Not q
Pleasure Trip.

Philadelphia, 27.-Tbe Ledger's New
York special correspondent says; There
is disposition at republican headquar-
tiers to attribute important political con-
sequences TO the Presidents journey to
California. Ne one supposes he will
make any stump speeches of partisan
character, but it is expected that he will
talk freely to the Pacific Coast people on
the Chinese question, the Importance of
commercial treaties with Mexico and
Central America, the development of
their manufacturing, mining and marine
industries. and other matters pertaining
to the business and industrial develop
ment of the country. In this way, they
think the President will be able incIden-
tally to convince the people of both
Oregon and California that the worst
thing that could happen 10 t. cir material
interest just now would be change Of
administration for the sake of change.
1 don't know what means New York re-
publican politicians have for thus fore
casting the Presidents mission, if it is a
mission, but the circumstances that such
of them as are vouching for these inten-
tions on mis- part have but recently re-
turned from Washington, would seem to
imply that they are dealing in something
more substantial than conjectures.

That Spanish Event

Madrid, 26.-The moment of the
Queens accouehnment is so fast ap-
preaching that eighty halberdiers are
kept ready night and day to summon the
Ministers and other persons who have
been invited for the ceremony, which is
to take place in the palace directly after
the birth. The royal physicians have
brought four wet nurses, carefully selected
district where Spanish aristocrscy usu-
ally get their nurses, who are famed for
their health and robust appearance. 1t
appears her msjesty wished to give breast
to her child, but state etiquette forbids.
In conservative and royalist circles the
heir is expected with much impotence,
and is likely to consolidate the dynasty
and make the Queen more popular.

nesorriug sitting RnII.

Chicago, 27.-The Tribune says Sit
tisg Bull is being deserted by his war
riors at what must be an alarming rate.
About 900 Of the Sioux have already
surrendered at Fort Keogh, and are
being sent to the Cheyenne River Agency.
The report comes from Fort Peck that
about LOCO others are coming 10 that
post, and now the doughty Indian warrior
has only about $50 fighting men. The
reason for the wholesale desertion is not
to be found in the fact that the savages
loved Sitting Bull less and Uncle Sam
more, but in the far more substantial one
that the buffalo herds have nearly all
gone south of the Missouri River, where
it would not be safe for braves TO follow
them

A Romance i'm the Hancock
Family.

The nomination Of General Han
cock has revived the recollection
of a romance in his family, the
h9ro of which was the Generals
only son, Russell Hancock, now a
prosperous cotton planter in Mis-
sissippi. Seven or eight years ago,
when quite boy, he was living
in Louisville aud had fallen in
love with young girl whose faith
er, having been rebel, would not
allow her to receive the addresses
of a son Of a Yankee soldier.
Young Hancock was forbidden
the house, and the father was pre-
pairing to take his daughter to Eu-
rope to insure a separation. The
youthful pair, however. one eve
ming met at party in Louisville,
and by sudden agreement they
stole across the river to Jefferson
vile, reused up preacher, were
married in the silence of midnight,
and stole back to their dwellings.
The lady remained in her fathers
house, received young company,
was seen in society with young
gentlemen escorts, and met her
husband as a mere friend in the
presence of others. The news
leaked out, however; the young
bride did not go to Europe, and
the pair lived at boarding house
in Louisville for about year. The
marriage was a surprise to his
parents, as well as hers, but Rus
sells mother became fond of her.
as did also his grandmother, Mrs.
Russell, who lives in country
home near Louisville. The father
of the runaway grill did not be-
come reconciled, but her mother
and sisters visited the young bride
daily; and her husband was a
great favorite with them from his
frank and merry moods. The
friends of the parties all agree
that the marriage has proved a
very happy one.

A wonderful change has taken
place in Jerusalem of late years,
and it is probably now more
comfortable residence that ever
before in its history. Mr.. Shick,
who holds the appointment OF
Surveyor of Buildings in the holy
city has lately issued a very in
structive report. He tells us that
ruined houses have been restored
or rebuilt by individuals or COM
panies, and buildings on the Pea
body plan have been erected by
associations. The streets are now
lighted, kept, for an eastern city,
most exceptionally clean, and the
aqueduct from the Pools of Solo
man has been restored, and water
brought thence to the city. Tan
nerieS and slaughter-houses have
been removed outside the town.
The Sanitary Department is under
the control ola German physician.
Bethlehem and Nazareth are Gag
erly emulating the progress of the
capital. In the latter place win.
dows are becoming quite frequent.
1t is asserted that there Is fixed
resolution on the part of thousands
in Prussia to make that country
as hot as possible for Jews, and il
is not unlikely that this may in q
measure increase the already con.
siderable number now returning
to Palestine, more especially a;
the German Jews are a power in
Jerusalem. The Improvement
are further, likely to lead to many
Europeans wintering there.-Ne,'

Save OLD Paper.

Never throw away the old pa
per. If you have no wish to sell
it, use 1t in the house. Some
housekeepers prefer 1t to cloth for
cleaning many articles of furni-
ture. For instance, a volume,
written by lady who prided her
self on her experience and tact,
says: After "a stove has been
blackened, 1t can be kept looking
very well for long time by rub
bling with paper every morning.
Rubbing with paper is much
nicer way of keeping a ten kettle,
coffee pot and tea pot bright and
clean than the old way of washing
them in suds. Rubbing with pa
per Is also the best was of polish
ing knives, tinware and spoons,
they shine like new silver. For
polishing mirrors, windows. lamp
chimneys, etc. paper is better
than dry cloth. Preserves and
pickles keep much better if brown
paper instead of cloth is tied over
the jar. Canned fruit is not hall
so apt to mold If piece of writ
ing paper, cut to fit the can, is laid
directly upon the fruit. Paper is
much better to put under carpet
than straw. 1t is warmer, thinner
and makes less noise when one
walks over 1t.
