10 the new Broad street station, Phlla-

In the course of few days, however,
the railroad officials will have every
thing in working order, nnd very litrle
trouble will be experienced. Aester-
day afternoon while the Delaware train
was being made up, those having the
work in charge got considerably nlHed
with other trains, and the Delaware
train arrived in this city in sections.
Part of it came into this city attacheu
to baggage car belonging. to some oth-

were missing. The telegraph officers
along the line were kept busy for some
time engaged iu the search OF the

MORMONiSM.
4 Terrible Picture Of M0fROnlsD
Bs nj list missionary.

"What is Mormonism 2" asked a
New York Tribune reporter of the Rev.
Dwight Spencer, q Baptist Missionary
who has been for two years in Utah.
"NIormonisIn, was the reply, sis .
relic of Asiatic barbarism. 1t Is sys-
TEN of Digotry without an equal. 1t il
hostile to every forlu of government
which it does not contlOl. Its follow
ers may obey existing laws as mere
matter of policy, but never as duty.
Its strength is in its badness. Polyga-
my is its chief corner stone, without
which the whole structure would fall.
1t Is crime against civilization, its
aim being to re-establish the barbar-
ism of the past centuries by destroy
ing the institutions upon which the
stability of the Nation depends. Nor
monsIn is not a religion, but crime
against religion. 1t bas NO conscience
and no sense of sin. 1t is impiety
wearing religious garments and vice
disguised in sanity robe. Instead Of
curbing the animal passions, it teaches
that their qualification is the highest
evidence OF growth in grace. 1t denies
vice by destroying virtue. Marriage,
the family and the home life cannot
exist where this terrible curse prevails.
1t is guilty of every form of uncleanli-
ne g. of crimes which heather nations
woud not tolerate. 1t is treason against
the Government OF the United States,
for it is founded in disloyalty and only
waits for sufficient strength before it
proceeds to carry out its doctrine that
all natl ons must eventually become
subservient TO it,"
"What is Utah 2"
"a Mormon kindom, with settled
government and public sentiment al
ready snaped. The Gentle population
is only mere speck in that Territory.
The Mormons own the stores, the
churches and the schools, and they are
rapidly extending their baneful iutiu-
ence into other Territories. When We
consider that the Territories cover an
area as large rs that of all the States in
the Union, we STE the vast Eeld that
the Mormons are seeking to control.
Twenty i've years ago the system
was weak, but it has become no mean
antagonist in Utah. 1t has a present
annual income of nearly $4,000, 900.
The increase of its population by immi-
grafton is about thousand a month.
1t has become power not to be laughed
at. Settled in the very heart OF this
great Nation, it is making itself felt"

STERLING, H., Jan. 3l.-It has been
discovered that a man and woman
named Seymour, living in the village
of Rock FALL, have been horribly mutt
a.ing a fatherless girl, seven years old I,
whom they w're supp osed to be taking
care of. The chiib is small for its age
and Seymour compelled her to feed and
take care of a horse and bring coal. He
confined her III a cellar at times all day,
without food or clothing except a thin
dress, and pInished her with horse
whip until the sut face of her entire
body was black and blue and sore.
Sometimes he would toss her to the
ceiling and let her fall on the floor. No
species Of cruelty seemed 100 severe to
adopt toward the child. The Villagers
last night made determined though
unsuccessful attempt to lynch Seymour,
but both he and his wife have fled.

A DOG THAT WAS AFFECTED
WITH SOMNANIBULISN.
[The Boomerang.I

There is something peculiar about
somnambulism, when considered FROM
scientific and philosophical standpoint.
The sleep-walker, il viii be found, sim
retains aSdim idea, even when he IS
asleep, of the condition OF affairs when
he went to sleep. For instance, if he
leaves his clothes in Il certain part OF
the room on retiring, he knows when
he rises just where find TO them, even in
the dark. This is n question witch
opens up wonderful field for physio@-
ical and mental research.
While young and giddy we became a
somnambulist, and excited a great deal
of curiosity by our strange freaks dur
ing sleep, and this one question of the
slumbering mind and it's memory of
facts existing prior to sleep was the
most remarkable thing about it all to
US. We puzzled over that a good deal.
At night we would retire to rest, and
the next thing we would know we
would wake up in the middle Of q CON
tiguOus melon patch, and there would
be two or three other SomuambuiiStS
there in the same patch, and rs much
surprised as we were. Still there is the
same truth staring us in the face.
Every sOmnambulist there had through
his sleep retained in his scmi-conscions
StaLe Il perfect fecOilcCtiOn OK NiSfc
every article of his clothing was and
how to get out of the up stairs window
without waking the old people.
BY and by the owner of tho melon
patch procured, at great expense, Il
large, humorous bulldog, who WIS also
Il somnambulist. He walked III his
sleep good deal. That is why we
quit. We didn't propose to descend TO
the level Of the brute creation. We
Just said, if a bulldog wants to sonnam
he can do 50, and we viii leave the
field to him.
We made this resolution one night
just after we had plugged water
melon. While STOPPING over in the
act, we felt Il pang Of conscience and
heard our suspenders break.
Perhaps the casual reader has never
sat down on a buzz saw and felt him
self gradually fading away. Irso, he
does not know what it is to form the
acquaintance of a somuambuiist bull.
dog in the prime of life.
After that somnambuiism didn't
have such Il run in our family for a
while. We never slept SO sound that
we didn't remember places and objects
that had made an impression On Us
prior to slumber, and that is why VIC
say that there is something i'll this
matter that scientists would do wcl! to
look into.
