trouble would be. I suspected the ulti-
mate result of alcohol on his fine nervous
organization but I cheered him, en-

of his dead parents whose sole inheri-

thanked God that he bad no children for

was exposed to many temptations. He
came to Kansas, and, buying herd of
cattle, tended them. But the longing,
the loud calls made by his diseased brain
for alcohol at stated times, could not be
resisted. Repeatedly he fell. None
knew the struggle, the continual fight, be
kept up. Tired, worn out, discouraged,
he finally decided TO kill himself rather

an outcast. They said he drank himself

He was the victim Of an hereditary dis

A report to the annual conference
of the Mormons says that the Mormon
population of Utah is Ill ,S20, that the
Church in that Territory has lost 600
members and gained 1900 in year, and
that the Church receipts in that period
were over sl,000,000. Apostle Snow
made an eloquent defence of polygamy,
and there was no show of opposition to
that dogma.
