JEALOUSY IN UTAH.
Tact Required In COurting New Wives.


Bishop Alexander C. Pyper and Elder
Jas. H. Hart, of the Mormon Church, were
in New York the other day and were inter-
viewed. Said q Herald reporter to them:
when a married Mormon begins to
court a second wife and his first choice asks
him what keeps him out so late at night,
how does he explain matters?"
Here the bishop looked at Mr. Hart, and
then Mr.. Hart locked at the bishop. Then
both laughed heartily and knowingly. ASK
some one older than me-" he said. Il see,
however what you are trying to get at-the
possibility Of a jealous feeling"
"Exactly."
That, of course, requires tact to over
come. But, as said before, the women
are generally just as firm believers in poly
gamy as the men, and religious principles
will nearly always prevail over the more
gross inclinations. Women who marry
polygamists are largely those of experience,
who take common sense view of matters.
The young girls do not take kindly to poly
gamy although believing in it. I have just
received a letter from my son who is ont in
Idaho, He tells me that he has popped the
question to his young lady and has fixed
the marriage day on July rs, on which day
he will try to be on hand.
Mr.. Pyper said that Henry Ward Bsecher
was greatly admired by the Mormon people.
After lecturing,there he left good impress
sion. They are not enthusiastic ABOUT Mr..
Talmage, whose style they regard as too
jerky and harsh. 1T is strange" said he,
that with such liberal men among them
the Christians should be 50 intolerant and
bigoted. don't wonder that this age plo-
duces men like Col. Ingersol and Thos.
Paine, for I think I would have been an
infidel lmyselfif hadn't become Mormon
This closed the interview.
As the reporter left the room two cham
ber maids ran has y down the corridor.
One of them seemed very nervous, and,
glancing furtively at the closed door, cried
out: Run as fast as you can, Annie; there's
two Mormc2s ip that room:"

A SURPRISE PARTY.

Runaway Chippewas from Wisconsin Call On
Indian Commissioner Price and Receive 4
Lecture.
Washington dispatch.
Three runaway Indians, from the Chippewa
ter, all in war paint and feathers, marched into
moniously for pow WOW. The four arrived,
and went to the fremont house, announcing
that they had come to gee the great father.
They registered as Ben New Mexico, interpre-
ter; CoDtee Mack, Coon Scar and Bare Wrist.
Commissioner Price was astoniehcd when
they appeared before him. The interpreter
stated that they represent 175 families, who
had sent them to Washington in hopes Of &C.
curing new reservation. As this particular
tribe is especially we'll provided for, and has
more land in their present reserV Vation than any
have actual use for, the commissioner thus ad-
dressed his visitors:

ing and fishing. They should raise products
from the soil and learn to work, as have done
many times, with their hands and arms and be-
come respectable citizens. Tho buffalo are all
gone, and your own sense should teach you
is time to throw OF those feathers and rings
and devote your time to earning living in an~
other way. This running over the country
won't do. You are well provided for and can
gain nothing by coming to Washington, and
you must 60 back and 20 inform your peo-
pie.
Ben New Mexico enlightened his companions
as to the reception accorded him and the eiat-
only RESPONSE was an occasional 'sUgh" and
dissatisfied shake of the head. They were
then sent back to their hotel with repeated ad
monition to return home at once.

Gratis, the motion was carried, So to 81. A
hasty canvass between the Plat ballot and the
announcement Of the vote on adjournment
showed that il another ballot had been taken.
five votes would have been gained for Depew,
and = third ballot would have probably elected
him. But the prospect now ie for an itnmedi-
ate adjournment, RELOCATING the whole business
to the people.
On Tuedsday 21st, there were two ballots for

made vigorous speech, denouncing corrup-
tons and railroad monopolies.
On Thursday, June 23rd, two more ballots
were taken with tho usual unsatisfactory re-
suits, but some excitement was caused by Z vi

The second trial of cadet Whitaker ended
like the first, in verdict that he was eailty
of mutilating himself, and recommenda-
tion that he be dismissed from the service
1t is stated that these trials have cost the
government over $4,000. The first court
was able, Conscientious, impartial, but on
the plea that Whitaker did not have a fair
show, another was organized, composed of
honorable men. but supposed to have more
lively sympathies with the colored race and
not affected with the prejudices alleged
against some Of the members of the first,
The result being the same, general acquies-
ence would be supposed to follow, but it is
stated that Whittakers friends claim the
evidence taken does not justify verdict of
guilty, and propose to make argument to
this effect before the judge advocate gen
eral, and if he approves the finding Of the
court, to go to the president and demand
that he shall disapprove the finding and re-
instate Whitaker to his former position in
the national academy.

tenths of the time of the president and his

GENERAL GRANT, who has been abroad,
and the refore speaks from personal know
}edee, in late interview says: "The gener.
al rule with American ministers abroad is to
be governed in their treatment of visiting
Americans by circumstances; if they have
powerful political backing, or are very
wealthy. visitors can secure plenty of at
tention; otherwise they are lost sight off,
1t is astonishing how quickly some Ameri-
cans, often of humble birth and circum-
stances. are turned into first class sne bs, by
the accident Of attaining wealth or official
stations, either at home or abroad. Our
ministers to foreign countries, Us a rule,
are very sorry representative of the theory
OF republican institutions.

the last danger Was left astern. and
then the weird, bright light that illuminated
