"The matter may as well be tested

not propose to mince matters at all.
My soldiers are here for far other pur-
poses than hunting and returning flu

order.

Vacation Trips.

What suits one only disgusts
another. Saratoga and Newport af-
ford the height of pleasurable enjoy
ment to the fashionably inclined, but
are deserts of dreariness to those whose
hearts are not set upon purple and fine
linen, and after-dinner twaddle, and
midnight balls. Not infrequently, to
the great vexatiOn of both parties, the
head of the house will want to 90 into
the woods, while his better half pre-
fers the seaside or the Springs. A
compromise is made which is accepta-
BILE to neither, and they firmly resolve
that nert year they will stay at home.
But when next year comes, and one by
one their friends disappear, and un-
familiar faces greet them in the street,
and the papers are full of vacation
gossip and letters from the Omnipres-
ent "Rusticus," their longing to be
away grows irresistible, and so, after
an animated discussion, they decide to
go-to the seaside.
Happy is the man who knows just
how to spend his vacation, and is al
liberty to spend it as he will. Happier
| still is the man whose whole family
comedies with him in the project whicl
lies nearest his heart, and who is per
mitted to enjoy his outing in harmOni.

The Huntington Will Case.

The celebrated Huntington will case
has finally been settled, and the state
of Vermont receives about S200,O00.
Arunah Huntington, who died in the
city of Brantford, Ontario, January 10,
1877, by will left to the state of Yer
mont his estate, valued at about 5000,
600, $40, 600 of which was in real es-
tate. The will was contested. Vice
Chancellor Proudfoot of the Brantford
court of chancery decided that the will
was valid as to the personal property
but not as to the real estate. The OBJ
.iect of the testator in devising the
property to the state was to provide a
school fund. Since the case has been
in the courts the property has consider
ably increased, so that the amount the
state will realize is probably not fan
from that stated at the opening of this

The Sad Result Of Shaving of
"a MUStache.

A Young fellow about 10 met and
loved a young woman on the West
Side. Not on the west side of the
young woman, but on the West side of
the city. 1t was no puppy love, but Il
clear case of old, chronic love, where
all the vital organs were involved. He
had Il mustache that was beautiful in
its intensity, and which tickled. They
were in the habit of meeting down
town in the forenoon, of casually meet
ing in the afternoon when she was
shopping, aud every evening he visited
her with the regularity of Il doctor to Il
wealthy patient. From I in the even
ing until midnight they would sit on
the sofa and communicate with nature,
until they were so tired that he would
wait an hour for street car to ride
four blocks, rather than walk. One
evening in the leafy month of June
abOut five days ago, "cold sore" ap-
peared on his lip, and with a rashness
that seemed born of desperation he de-
cided to have his mustache cut off
"NOt another step" said she with a
gasp, like Barrett playing Richelieu.
"Approach me at your peril"
He turned pale and stood like one
who was sasphyxiated, and said, "What
not one kiss of welcome ~
"Not one" said the suffering girl
swallowing her gum to stay her stOm-

He Didn't Jump.

A gentleman of this city tells good
story of a couple he once knew in Rut-
land, Vt. They had differences some
times, which were usually settled with
ont difficulty. On one occasion, how
ever. the old man threatened to COM
nit suicide by hanging himself. Ty-
ing one end of the rope about his neck,
he crawled out on the lower branch of
an apple tree that grew in the yard,
and secured the other end. Then he
called his old woman out to see him
jump into eternity. The old lady
seized Il heavy horse whip that was in
the house, ran ont into the yard and
vigorously applying the lash about his
legs, shouted: "Jump, you old fool,
jump" He quickly sued for mercy,
and never threatened suicide after

GUNNIsoN Co., Col, Oct. /, 1882,
Editors Herald:
Thinking that a few lines from
this out of the way place, would be
interesting to your many readers,
1 take the liberty of writing. This
is called the garden of Colorado, but
[ pity the unlucky ones that settle
in the bad places, of Colorado if this
is the best. The valley is about
twenty-five miles long by five to
seven wide, and if all the grass was
collected onto one square mile it
would make tolerable grazing for
twenty-five head of stock. There
has not been rain enough in the last
year to start the'grass, but still there
is some good land and plenty of
water. The country from here west
to the Wasatch Range, is one bleak
desert. The Denver & Rio Grande
track is now within forty miles of
here and coming west at the rate of
a mile a day. The grading will be
done to the Utah line 10y the first of
December, if the ears get through to
Salt Lake by the first of next March
they will do well. The HERALD is
a welcome visitor at QUIZ camp.

Old Mormon" Grounds.

BURLINGTON, Iowa, Oct. 4, 80.
Editors Herald:
Having rambled for a few days
among the citizens of Hancock
County, Ills, traVersing the old
places where am told that huts OF
rail covered faithful households,
and the trials endured were of no
common kind, and although this
county had a Mormon origin, very
few of its citizens now know any
thing Of the people or faith enjoyed
by those who opened that section
still Sunday and holiday excursions
leave many points within a radius
Of fifty miles, on the father of
waters, headed for trip to Mormon
relics "NauYoo," and although no
vestage remains Of the temple,
the ground upon which it stood
seems to satisfy the relic seeker,
although some capital is teing made
by recent finding. Major Bidman,
In tearing down the wall Of the
eastern wing of the "NaQYQo
House" a building commenced BE-
the Prophet Joseph Smith, fort one
years ago, he came across the cor
ner stone in the southeast corner, and
In the center of it was a square cut
chest, about 10x14 inches and s deep,
covered with a stone lid, which
fitted closely in a groove or Shout
der at the top and cemented around
the edge with lead. The removal of
the lid was attended with some
difficulty. A number Of written and
printed documents, the most of
them mouldy and more Or less de-
cayed, one pamphlet written by one
narrating his experience, ETC., was
IN good state of preservation. The
Bible and Book of Mormon when
dried will be fit for reading: other
documents also will have to be
oleached; several American coins,
nearly all bearing the date of 1910,
form interesting relics. The spread
of the gospel is attended with some
drawbacks, still God blesses the
labors of energetic workers, and
many pleasant hours are spent in a
family chat on the plan of salvation.

Iowa will next call my attention.
