in a cold mountainous country, a
very novel sight. The second crop
of all kinds of vegetables is coming
along nicely. How would you like
such a climate? This is a damp
place, though; and not so healthy a
city as Salt Lake. | would give
cash to see one of those old-time
storms come creeping down the
mountain sides, and the snow
covered ground after it's retreat.
Queer, isn't it, and the only explana-
ton of such a statement perhaps
lies in the acceptance as a fact of
the old saying, that ~"absence makes
the heart grow fonder."
The Sacramento river is
running rapidly, and bring
ing down the usual quantity of
"slickens" for the Sacramentans
to swallow. 1t now scores eleven
feet, just after the wet season, and
as soon as the snow Fin the noun
tains melts it reaches the height of
ABOUT twenty 1.-TWO feet, in midsum-
mer it is usually down to six feet.
In high water time the city is much
lower than the river, and if it were
not for tile continual care of the
levees, destruction to life and prop
erty would come again. All the
street SWeepingS and the filth which
a~ccumulates in the cutters are care
fully stored for use in filling holes
which wear in the reads, or on the
numerous alleys, which are gener-
ally low. With bad sewerage what
doyou think must be the condition of
the soil made up of such material.
There are some fine free schools
here, in all abouttwelve. There are
the Sacramento grammar school,
building and lot worth $4,000, with
ST pupils, and a yearly pay roll for
salary of principal and teachers
amounting to $23,50O; the high
school, valued at $4,000, ITO pupils,
pay roll $4,000 ;the Capital grammar
school, valued at $1,000, 396 pupils.
pay roll $9,150; the lime other
schools, aggregating i'll value, build
ings and grounds, $4,000, having
a total list of pupils 1910, and pay
ing for salaries $27,75O yearly, the
school year icing ten months. In
addition 10 the above about $4,000
are paid for superintendent salary,
for special teachers and for janitors,
services. From the above we get a
total valuation of school property
of $17S,OCO; total salaries paid $751;
300 and a total of 1898 pupils.
at some future time l will
give you the rates of the city,
county and state taxes levied
for the support of these schools.
One fact is very apparent, that no
matter how high the rate no one
complains. The children have an
opportunity Of gaining an education
equal to that acquired at any pri-
vate school in tie land, for in the
high school are taught Latin, Greek,
German, French, geometry, natural
and moral philosophy chemistry etc.
How long will it be before a sys-
TEN of free schools is adopted in
Utah? 1t may at present he op-
posed to the powers that be, but the
time will come when this YeXed
school question must be settled,
when it will no longer be tacitly IN

Lost Faith in Physicians.

Why is it that so many persons
use proprietary medicines, or patent
medicines, as they are commonly
called? Is it because people lose
faith in their physicians? Well,
this is, no doubt, frequently the case.
There are i~nnumerable instances
where cures have been affected by
SCoYILL's SARsAPARILLAo or BLOOD
and Liver SYRUP for all diseases
of the blood, when they had been
given over by their physicians. IL
is one OF the best remedies ever Of
fered to the public, and as it is pre-
pared with the greatest care, as a
specific for certain diseases, it is no
wonder that it should be more
effectual than hastily written and
carelessly prepared prescriptions
made by incompetent physicians.
Take Scovilrs Blood and Liver Syrup
for all disorders arising from ina
pure blood. 1t is endorsed by lead
ing professional men as well as by
eminent physicians and others.
Try it. =

Her Abduetress Discovered and the
New York August si.~iittle Lizzie
Seldom, daughter of VIM. G. Selden, OF
Brooklyn, who was kidnapped Monday
last, by a woman in black, was found, this
morning and restored to her parents. Her
abductress was arrested. The woman is
young and rather good looking. Her name
is Maggie Kappel, and she is % years OF age,
single and resides at 125 Park avenue.
Brooklyn. She works in an envelope nc
tory in this city, and she said she did not
steal the child, but found her in Greenwich
street, n. Y.
As che did not read the papers, she knew
nothing of the whereabouts of the parents.
Her arrest was brought about through in
formation given Detective Shaughnessy by
Charles Mclaughlin, a young man
who knew her, and was with
her on Monday night when
she had the child. She did not reach home
with the little girl until IL o'clock this
morning. The detective at o'clock found
her in bed with the child by her side.
When told she was under arrest she wept.
She was taken to the station and Selden
sent for. When he saw his child he nearly
tainted, his eyes filled with tears, and as he
clasped his child to his bosom, sobbed: my
little darling, have found you at last"
The little one cried papa" and kissed him
over and over again. The scene was very
affecting. The mother of the abductress
visited her daughter at the police head
quarters, and strange to say answers the
description of the woman who was at first
reported to have stolen the child.
The girl, Maggie Kappel, has been arrest
ed before for larceny. Her picture was
taken and shortly afterwards she was
brought before court pleaded not guilty,
and was remanded.

BALTIMORE, August 31.-Quite q sensa

nouncement that the Rev. Charles Bent.

immense congregations 10 hear him preach
the Gospel here, had fallen from grace. and
would be compelled TO abandon his minis
terial work.
Bentley has been assisted in his religious
work by the Rev. E. ID. Jones. Both resid.
ed at the house of highly respectable fam
lily in South Baltimore, and the members
of the household were soon among the most
devout and jealous attendants at the reviy-
ais. One OF them, young lady, quite
pretty, who had been married but deserted

around that their friendship would result
in a matrimonial match.
Some months ago the young evangelists
left the city to convert souls in other places.
The young lady then became disconselate,
and frequently was discovered by her
friends weeping bitterly. About month
ago, however, the preachers returned and
renewed their religious work. and they
were more suCCeSSIuk Luau ever NiSubiy
the mourners bench was filled with sinners
anxious to give their souls to God.
A few days ago the young lady to whom
he had been so devoted in his attentions
became a mother, greatly to the astonish.
ment of her parents. who had no knowl-
edge whatsoever of their only daughters
shame. In reply to an inquiry the poor
girl acknowledged that Rev. Mr.. Bentley
was the father of her child. The parents
were greatly incensed over their dis
grace, sent for Bentley, and demand.
ed satisfaction. He accordingly con.
fessed his guilt, and announced his willing
ness to marry the girl. He stated this
morning that he deeply regretted his con-
duct, and would not preach any more with
the disgrace he had brought Oh himself
hanging over him.
The affair has caused flrtter in social
and religious circles. Bentley is al Eng

steamboat excursions. The Collector of
Philadelphia wrote him, recently, asking if
il was incumbent upon collectors and in
spectors to prosecute masters of steamships
who carry passengers in excess OF their IL
cense. The Secretary holds that their du-
ties under the law are so TO speak, antici-
patory. That is, they are to see the proper
licenses are taken out by these companies,
but anybody can bring an action against
the companies for violations of the law.
The penalty is $40 for every passenger in
excess. half to 20 to the informer.
