Demming discovered bright new comet
on the 4th inst. 1t is located in the

This is the sixth comet which has been
seen since May LIST, five being new dis

observed by Americans, and it is certain
ly a high compliment to the industry and
skill OF American astronomers that they

FERRY EXPLAINS.
Statement from she French Premier
In Reference TO the Sale Of Arms
20 Greece and kindred Points.

PARIS, February 24.-In the Senate to-day
Duke De Broglie declared the information
furnished by the government on Greek
affairs insufficient. The dispatch of war
material to Greece afforded ground for
believing that the open support formerly
given to Greece has now been transformed
into secret assistance. Occult underhand
measures have been taken under the shelter
of certain high influence. He wished to
know who instigated the Thomassin mission
and the promise of rifles to Greece.
Premier Ferry replied that the mission
was an ordinary normal act, but that the
irreconcilables Of the Right and Left had
distorted It's nature. He said NJ. Defrey-
cinet, his predecessor, had previously ascer-
tanned that the dispatch of French officers to
Greece and German officials to Turkey was
in no way calculated to disturb the concert
OF the powers. as
NJ. Ferry reminded the House of q note
OF the Duke de Cazes, wherein 1t was main
tained that there were no restrictions on
the sale OF arms, provided war was not at
the time declared.
M. Ferry stated In conclusion that the
government, having heard of the sale of war
material, had absolutely prohibited its ex-
portation, and consequently not q single
cartridge had left the country.
The order of the day, pure and simple,
was then adopted by vote of 166 to liz.

A FUNERAL ADRIFT ON LAKE ERIE
A funeral procession of six or eight car
riages started on Thursday, the worst day
of the storm, to go to the cemetery.
They were obliged, on account of the
drifts, to take the road that runs along
the lake shore, and slowly plodded their
way along what they supposed was the
proper street. Finding they did not
reach their destination they stopped after
a while to investigate, and found to their
horror that they were one mile from
land out on the frozen waters Of Lake
Erie. The ice was thin and treaeher-
GUS, and in their bewilderment they
hardly knew which way to turn; but at
last, with fear and trembling, and almost
perished with cold, they crept back to
shore and returned with their dead to
the city to defer their mounful errand to
another day.-BuBalo ESrpreSs.

MRS. JOHN YOUNG, NO. 8.
More About the RebeIIfoun yvsfe Of
the Mormon Leader.
Philadeiphfo Press


About the latter part of 1866 John RI

l.tion. Being man of genial and enter
tanning presence and not at all bad look.
ing, and, besides, having made a number
OF strong friends, who were willing to
show him every possible courtesy during
his stay in the Quaker City, he readily
obtained an introduction to Miss Libbfe
Cantield, a daughter of Mr.. Garfield, OF
the Cantield manufacturing company, at
that time doing business at Seventh and
Cherry streets. Young had previously
met the young lady and was some.
what smitten with her acknowledged
beauty and charming manners, and upon
being presented to her, Immediately began
the siege. which finally eliminated In
Miss Libbie's capitulation. They were
married In 1867, Notwithstanding the
fact that at that time the young lady had
husband living in this city, from whom
she had never been divorced, and Young
was in similar plight or worse, for he
had two wives awaiting his return to his
harem in Utah. The marriage between
Young and Miss Garfield, however. was
the result of pure love (ssc), for it is said
that he exhibited toward her more affec-
ton and tenderness than he did to any
one or al Of his other wives combined.
It is further stated that when Young was
welded 10 his Philadelphia bride she
was fully aware that he was already
doubly encountered, but that she over
looked this trifling matter when the hus-
band explained that the other two were
merely nominal wives, forced upon
him by the laws of the Nor
mon Church at the dictation .,s s
the prophet Brigham senior. How.
ever that may be, Young and his Phila-
delphia bride went to Salt Lake City
and there led life of domestic bliss.
which brought forth fruit in the form of
three children. Nothing occurred to mar
their uniform felicity until 1878, when
Young suddenly took unto himself
fourth wife in the person of Luella Cobb,
which caused an unlocked for disruption
in his previously well-regulated house
hold. Prayers and entreaties proved of
no avail. Mrs. Young, of Philadelphia,
who had always been the recognized
favorite, would submit to no such usur-
patton of her rights, and accordingly
packed her trunks and, taking her three
children with her, left the city of many
wives and returned to Philadelphia.
Young has given bonds for his appear
ance in the sum of $4,000, but the tele-
graphed statement as to his having
broken a pledge never to practice po-
lygamy is laughed at by Philadelphians
fully conversant with all the facts con-
nected with his marriage in this city.
