The Women 81 MormOn1sme
"The Women of Mormonism, or the
Story of Polygamy, as told By the Vic
tins Themselyes,h Il the title Of q new
book which will be eagerly read. II
IL edited by Mrs. Jennie Anders0a
Froiseth, of Salt Lake City, one of the
foremost workers in the Anti-P0lyg-
amy cause. She gives very nearly in
the words of the poor deluded victims
the accounts Of their dreadful miseries
and sufferings, showing how the first
wife has often been forced for the sake
of bread and shelter for her children to
consent to have her husband take an
other wife, even the women she most
hated. While for herself she might
have preferred to plunge beneath the
waters Of the Jord0n, yet for the sake
of her children she has consented to
see her husband bring another women
into her home to usuKp her place In
his affections.
Every women should read 1t that
she may learn the better to prize the
blessings Of her own home, and be
able to sympathize with these poor
unfortunate sisters and do more tor
their relief.
Rev, Moses Smith, pastor Of the
SECOND Congregational Church, De.
troit, Mich, writes: +" read manuscript
pages with an interest which at times
rose to astonishment and indignation.
This book I an sure will be the
right thing, in the right place, at the
right time and from the right source.
Every pastor in the land may recon-
mend the volume before he sees it, and
a million copies ought to be sold in one

How an Old German Woman Lost Twenty
Dollars.

Mrs. Hitler and her daughter, living on
Iatnall street above Sixth, were Yesterday
defrauded out of $50 by a couple of sharpers
who worked upon the feelings of the two
women. About 10 O'Clock in the mornino
neatly dressed man applied at the house
and lett an order for some rag carpet, prom
lsing to bring the rags in the afternoon. He
Wrote IN the order book, In a struggling
nand, the following "Sam Harris, 288
Market st. bet. 5th and 9th st. 35c per yard i,
clothing store, so yards star carpet as much
carpet 36c per yard"
Miss HITLER was alone at the time and told
the man to call when her mother was at
home, her father being employed at the
fusey q Jones works. Harris soon left,
tearing piece of paper from the order
Dook ana making memorandum upon It,
About 1870 man giving his name as
smith, who looked something like a sailor,
with dark hair and eyes and q German
accent, made his appearance at the house
and told a wonderful story of his misfortune
70 Miss Hitler and her mother, who had re-
turned. His story was that Captain Bill
linger owed him large sum of money,
Whlch he was unable to collect, and that he
desired to raise funds to go to his home in
Denmark. He wanted to borrow what he
could and was willing to leave box of
Jewelry as security.
The women did not like to advance the
stranger any funds. While they were dis
cussing the matter Harris returned but did
not recognize Smith, to whom he said he
was willing to loan the money, but that he
did not have it. They finally left together
shortly afterwards Harris putting in appear.
ance for the third time. He then offered to
leave 800 with the women to give Smith in
case he should come back.
They refused to take it, telling Harris to
give 1t to the man himself Harris left and
smith came upon the scene once more.
This time he appeared in great distress and
cried and wrung his hands until Miss Hitler.
thinking his grief must be genuine, offered
to loan him $40 of her own money, and her
mother, not to be behind her in generosity,
added another $40. Smith, whose argu-
ment was that he wanted to buy a pair of
shoes and suit of clothes, with expires
sions of gratitude, left, and neither he
nor Harris have been seen since.
When Mr.. Hitler returned he was told of
the transaction and on examining the
pledges found them comparatively worth
less, being of cheap material.
Mrs. Hitler this morning said that if she
had read the order In the book she would
have known at once that Harris was a
swindler, but between the two men she be-

THE STARVING COMMUNITY.
Terrible Condition of the People I'm Patriel


County, Va.-HeIp Arriving Slowly.
A special dispatch from Danville, Va, tc
the Baltimore Day says The latest news
/ from Patrick county is to the effect that the
liberal contributions from Baltimore and
other points have given the people great
hope and comfort. They are looking for
ward to the arrival of these supplies with
overlooking hearts.
The greatest trouble is the lack of trans
portation. Articles for Patrick county are
shipped to Burnt Chimneys station, Henry
county, and hauled thence 45 miles by
wagons to Patrick county. The destitution
has been SO great that teams are in the
lowest order, and such as have been able to
keep their stock have them SO poor as to
make 1t next to impossible to haul heavy
loads such distance. Supplies have reached
Burnt Chimneys from Baltimore, Richmond
and Lynchburg, and are there awaiting
removal to Patrick county.
The relief committee of DanVille to-day
arranged by telegraph to have large
number of wagons from Martinsyille and
Stockton in Henry county take loads to
Patrick county. If this does not move the
corn and other provisions fast enough, teams
will be sent from here. Letters received
here to-day say the destitution is greater
than was at first believed, and while con-
tributions are liberal, great deal more will
be required to keep off starvation until
harvest time, from three to five weeks hence.
1t is questionable if the wheat now growing
will furnish bread to the famished until
the standing corn can be gathered.
This famine Is no small thing, and true
history of the incidents of this trying time
would make narrowing story. The famine
has developed heroism worthy of all praise.
One man of means has spent his last dollar
and divided his last bushel of corn with his
starving neighbors, and Is now feeding his
children on fruits aud vegetables that their
bread may be given to those who must be
fed to be able to save their standing crops.
Another gentleman writes that the potato
crop being now available the fear that his
little children would starve is past The
liberality of Baltimore and other places has
put bright aspect upon affairs, but the
danger Is not over, and further contribu-
tions will not be in vain.

Serious Charges Against tho Edge MO

Question. -

Serious Charges Against the Edge Moor
Iron COmpany-AnOther Side of the
Question.
On Monday Alderman Roosevelt, one of
the Trustees of the Brooklyn bridge, re-
signed from the Board, and In his letter of
resignation saw iit to give the Edge Moor
Iron Company, the contractors for the steel
work of the bridge, scathing oyerhauling
lie says among other things, that "there
may be drag and dead weight among the
officials or employees of the bridge,
the Edge Moor Iron Company, which
has the contract for furnishing the
steel, is, and has been from the first, scan
dalous. No contract that 1t signed did 1t
fill. No promise that it made did 1t keep
No assurance that it gave but it falsifled
Its original contract, which was to have
been completed nearly two years ago, re-
mains, after assurance upon assurance
promise upon promise, uncompleted to this
day. The dealings OF the bridge trustees
with the company have been series of mis-
placed condolences on one side and gross
deceptions on the other"
In conclusion he adds "These repeated
failures and falsehoods on the part of the
Edge Moor Iron Company have placed the
trustees in difficult, painful and unsatis-
factory position before the public, and yet /
fully believe that, in their contracts with
that company, and even in their renewal of
contracts after the first had been willfully
disregarded and violated the majority of the
trustees did what they eonscientiously con-
sdered best for the public interest"
gentleman connected with the Edge
Moor Company stated, this morning, that
the whole trouble in the fulfilling of their
contracts with the Bridge Trustees rested
entirely with that body. The Edge Moor
folks complain that work on the bridge has
been continually hampered by changes in
the drawings and plans as originally made
out. Even after some of the material had
been gotten out ready for shipment,
alterations were ordered without any
additional contracts. Even now
some Of the parts most desired
for the bridge are not as much as begun,
from the fact that drawings and plans are
not forthcoming from the bridge engineers.
The bridge question has become serious
matter to the Brooklyn aud New York
people, and the long delays in the compile
tion of the monster "white elephant has
to be attributed to the negligence of some
one, and the trustees do not care who, as
the onus of the matter does not rest with
them

REPORTERS AT THE BAT.

Inc newspaper men desiring to encourage
and stimulate the interest in athletic sports,
yesterday gathered together the muscular
portion of the fraternity and proceeded to
the base ball grounds near the monument.
sides were selected and christened the
'Gazette" and "News" mines. Seven
innings were played, and ut one time the
| crowd was so great that it was impossible to
proceed with the game-that is when the
contest between Our Boys and the Enter
| prise came to an end and their admirers
| crossed the diamond, very impolitely, on
their way home. The struggle throughout
was very exciting, but there was evidently
undue influence used on the part
of the "News" nine, who never
would have made the score they
did had 1t not been for the assistance Of
two or three GAZETTE men who joined their
forces, The batting by the NeWS party was
execrable, with the exception of Brown, who
made base hit every time he grasped the
ash, and nearly all the runs scored by them
were by accident, not Il run being earned
(whatever that means.) Their telding was
marked by some phenomenal playing, and
Davis as right field invariably caught his
foot In piece of loose sod whenever there
was the slightest danger of hot ball com
ing In his locality. Bach, at second, made
bold stand, but considered 1t policy to
ENCP N'iS bohA WIN tStb W shNt Dls uHUus.
All in all their fielding was a series of bril-
liant blunders. Hopes, who properly
belonged to the NetcS party, was evidently
distrubtful of the ability of his constituents,
and was generously offered the captaincy of
the GAZETTE nine. The batting ofthe latter
continually provoked applause and Foster
and Reeve invariably made home runs when
ever the opportunity presented. Sharpley was
marvel, and like a frightened gazelle he
sped around the square at almost lightning
speed-a base at time. If the batting Of
the GAZETTE was fine their fielding was
superb. To see Hopes on soft tussock
waiting for fly was picture for an artist,
while Foster, as centre field, was always on
hand and at one time jumped three feet In
the air and caught "sky-scraper" with his
left hand 1t was noticed that Cheyney
hid behind telegraph pole when ball
rolled his way. Hill as Il fielder had no
equal.
There is little use in particuarzing the
exquisite points brought out by the GAZETTE
party, who do not hesitate to attribute their
defeat to the partiality of Carpenter, the
umpire, and the fact that KeWs hacker was
inadvertently allowed to keep the score. The
water can was kept full aud the bats In
order by Crute, reserve GAZETTE player,
who kindly volunteered his services The
score is said to have been 10 to 10, and the
best of feelings prevailed from the beginning
to the end Of the game. The return match
Is being arranged.

A STRANGE OFFER.

A Hotel Keeper Offers to Produce the
Clugston Murderer IL the 81 900 Reward
is Assured.
On the 18th of March, 1881, Samuel Clug,
ston, living at Valley Forge Pa, was
murdered by a burglar whom he attempted
to capture in his bedroom. The affair
created much excitement and two men
were arrested for completely in the affair,
but were discharged after hearing
Interest has been revived in the matter how
ever, by dispatch from Norristown dated
yesterday, which says:
"John L. Hoy, the proprietor of the Mansion
House of Valley Forge, until recently resi-
dent of this city, claims to have positive in
formation of the whereabouts of Clugston's
slayer. Hoy was in Norristown to-day
and communicated with the county officials
and stated that if the reward of 81 900
which was offered for the murderer's arrest
will be paid he and two friends, with the
assistance of the borough police, will pro-
duce the missing murderer, "dead oraliYe 3"
These parties say that the theories about the
probable murderer are all wide of the mark,
and that If the reward offered is positively
assured they will speedily and surely unvail
the shrouded mystery. Mr.. Hoy is truth
full and respectable citizen and his state
ments are not regarded as wild or fantasti-
cal. Several weeks after the murder was
committed 81 900 was raised by subscription,
which was offered as reward for the appre-
he lsion of the murderer. That fund is in
IN hands of the county officials"
The 81 900 reward offered was raised by
su ,scription among the residents in and
near Valley Forge, and was only to hold
good for one year, which accounts for Hoy's
desire to have the amount assured before
he produces his man.
