Impure breath.

Among all the disagreeable conse-
quences that follow decay Of, the teeth, an
impure breath must be the most moFtify-
and unpleasant to its possessor, and it IS
the most inexcusable and offensive in so-
ciety; and yetthe cause of it may be easily
removed by cleansing your teeth daily
with that justly popular dentifriee, Fra
grant SOZODONT. 1t purifies and sweet
ems the breath, cools and refreshes the
mouth, and gives pearly appearance TO
the teeth. Gentlemen who indulge in
smoking should cleanse their teeth With
.SOZODONT, as it removes all unpleas-
ant odors OF the weed Ask your druggist
for it.

Sir Henry Smith, who was for many
years member from Colchester, when
canvassing in person, on one occasion,
asked big. dull looking Essex farm
err for his vote. The farmer was a
ine specimen of mingled bucolic in
dependence and observation-disclosures, and
he said biuntly: I'D vote for you,
Sir Henry. as usual. only folks tell me
you're such fool" 'Fool, am II" re-
tort,d Sir Henry; then, my good sir,
Pm the very man to represent you"
Down came the farmers hand upon
Sir Henry's shoulder as he exclaimed
with laugh: 'Come, I'm gormed If
that aren't good IN! YOU'RE not
such fool as l thowt, and you shall
have my vote; here's my hand upon
it,"

The Pieche New Record has the
following: Out at Spring valley re-
Gently a number Of men went oHt rifle
shooting, and one of them, Chas. Bell,
went to shoot at bird on post some
distance off. Hesbrought the rifle up
to his shoulder to shoot. but every
thing appeared dark. Thinking that
something got over his eye, he lowered
the gun and wiped the eye with a
handkerchief, then went again TO shoot
but could see nothing. He then shut
the eye with which he was sighting
and opened the other, and could see
perfectly, but the other eye is com
pletely blind. Nothing appears to be
the matter with the eye, and it looks
as it always did, but he can
not see with it, He never felt any
pain about the optic before nor has he
since the sudden blindness.

srormonis,n on the Increase.

W. G. Stains. the Mormon immi-
grant agent. told a New York World
reporter recently that notwithstand
ing Evart's anti-Mormon circular of
last year, the movement toward this
country of European Mormon prose
lytes is more active than ever. 81 ex-
pect." said he, chat the arrivals this
year will be larger than for many
years past. Our Church authorities
sent abroad early this season forty adj
ditional missionaries, who will not re-
turn for two years. We have now in
England, Scandinavia, Germany,
Switzerland and Holland about 100
propagandists Of our faith. who have
left Utah for the sole purpose of max
ing converts in Europe. They are as
sisted by several hundred local Elders,
who are commissioned as such III CIV
cry community where Mormon inter-
est gains the slightest foothold." Very
few of the newcomers are settling IN
Utah. Its best farming lands are all
taken up and held at higher prices
than the immigrants can pay. Agents
are sent, therefore, from Salt Lake
City into Arizona, Colorado and Mon
tana, who select land for the iucomcrs,
At Salt Lake they are formed INTO
new parties aud taken to their future
homes. Contributions to the lmmr
grant fund aggregating large sums
are turned into the general treasury
in Salt Lake City aud transmitted ~
telegraph to Stains, upon the arrival
of the companies at New York City
TO be dishursed as their necessities re
quire. He has paid the Union Pacific
] Railroad Company $4,000 Iii one
check for the transportation OF one
large party with their effects.

Burdette, the Hamkeye man, lcayesl
off his fun to write this pretty sketch,
which is quite as creditable to him as
any Of his humorous productions:
"WhiIe was lectnring in Wash
ington saw q lady with an intelIi.
gent, pretty face and bright, eloquent
eyes that were rarely lifted toward
the speaker, and then only for flash
of time. They were bent upon her
husbands hands almost constantly.
Brilliant and accomplished few years
ago, she had gone down into the
world of voiceless silence, and now all
the music and all tie speech that
comes into her life comes through the
tender devotion of her husband; and
as | talked / watched him telling of
the lecture on his nimble fingers, while
her eagle eyes glanced from them to
his sympathetic face. II was pretty
picture Of devotion. They were 50
yonng 10 have this cloud shadow the
morning skies of their lives, but as ]
glanced from that voiceless wife to
her husband, thought how beautiful
| ~ the sunlight Of his devotion was
breaking through these clouds and
/ tiating their affections even with q
tender radiance. This discipline Of at
tending on suffering Is a good thing
for man. 1t rounds out his life; i
develops his manlier, nobIer qualities
if makes his heart brave and tender
and strong as woman's.

A CONFLICT OF AUTHoRITY.-And Dis.
pute as 10 Jurisdiction 1t seems that dis
pute has arisen among the authorities in
regard to the boys arrested for stealing
iron from Fishers foundry. Clerk Oar.
rah, OF the Municipal Court, refused to
issue warrants for them, and Chief OF
Police Sweeney looks upon this as an ex-
preston OF personal malice which he al.
leges MIR. Darrah entertsins for him. The
Clerk, on the contrary, says that no such
feeling Influenced his action, or is felt by
him at all. He explains his action by say
ing that the charge against the boys Is one
not properly cognizable in his court, but q
subject Tor investigation by aJustice OF the
Peace. In this view he is sustained by
Judge Cranmer, who said to areporter OF
this paper last night that Darrah had
acted in the only proper manner, and had
not In any way exceeded his authority in
his refusal to- issue the warrants. While
the cases could be disposed OF In the
Municipal Court, it would only involve
the city in considerable expense, which
Is unnecessary In view OF the fact that the
guilty parties are punishable by State law.
The Major complains OF another case in
which Clerk Darrah refused TO issue q
warrant for man whose wife desired TO
arrest him for gambling away his hard
earned possessions. Judge Cranmer says
that on this occasion Mr.. Darrah was sick
but that he was applied TO for the war
rant after his Clerk had declined to issue
it, and he also refused, because he could
find no legal authority for issuing the de-
sired papers.

NARROW Escape From DROWNING
Saturday evening as the steamer 0'Nesl
was returning from Moundsville with the
Sloan's Station excursion, two boys living
in North Wheeling got into skif aud
rowed out in the rear Of the boat, TO get
the rocking motion OF the waves. They
rowed too close, and the wheel struck the
skiff, overturning 1t in the water, and
throwing the boys some distance in the
river. They were in imminent danger Of
drowning, when man living in boat
house by the bank saw their peril, and
hsstened to the rescue, succeeding in saw
ing them just in the last instant. The &C.
currence ought to teach boys, and their
parents as well, lesson in regard to the
practice so many OF them indulge in, OF
rowing skiffs into steamboat waves. 1t
has many perils, which none but q skilled
boatman should brave.

SHOOTING ScRAPE Across THE RIVER
Saturday evening Peleg Hill and Jack
Davis, the latter workman at the Etna
Mill, met on narrow boardwalk at Mar
tins Ferry. Hill was drunk, and often
sively ordered Davis to get off Of the walk.
Davis quietly complied with the request,
desiring to avoid any difficulty, and Hill
walked on, keeping up fire OF oppro-
brious epithets and profanity. Davis paid
no attention to the mans abuse, and the
latter, becoming exasperated at the con.
temptuous silence OF Hill, turned when
about six or eight yards distant, and,
drawing his revolver, aimed and fred, the
shot taking effect in DAvis's left shoulder
The wounded man walked to drug store
near, and his wound was probed by ply.
stefan, without, however, finding the ball
Davis then came over to Wheeling, and
DR.. Frissell pronounced the wound dan.
gerous. He could not find the ball, and
therefore could not say as to the exact
character Of the mans injuries. He
thought they would not prove fatal, how.
ever.
Hill was placed under arrest. He did
not make any effort to deny the crime, but
alleges that he shot in self.defense.

SINGULAR ACCIDENTAL peculiar cas-

handle Of pick-Axe which was lying close
to the opening aud the pick was thrown
down upon 0'Donnell. He was looking
up at the time, and the sharp point OF the
implement struck him on the cheek, cut
ting an ugly cash, which will permanently
