His Triple Wives.

A mormon elder who had been on 8 mission in Europe, was encountered on his way westward with three newly affi- to reporter. Emeline was brawny, ignorant, hard handed widow of forty or over, and her lot was to be that of drudge in the we'll balanced family which the elder contemplated. She was to "look after the domestic economy" as he expressed it. Sarah was a neither handsome nor young woman, but some refinement was discernible, and he said that she had been 8 schoolmaam in Wales. She was for practical use, too his plan being to make her governess for his children. The third, Lottie, was 8 blooming Lancashire lass of twenty or so, quite pretty in her coarse way, and the reporter did not deem it necessary to ask the elder why he had chosen her. They were evidently in love with each other, which was not surprising in him, though marvellous in her, considering that he was sixty and ugly. She was to be the queen of the reorganized estab- lishment. "Wil there be triple we'd ding ?" was inquired. "Yes," the elder replied; "we call the ceremonya 8 sealing and it is performed in secret. There after shall hold more approved posi- tion before the Church, for we hold that polygamy is not only 8 privilege but also 8 duty, which no saint can be entirely excused from fulfilling. There WAS some hesitation about sending me out as mis- sionaFy because had taken but one wife, and don't suppose should have received the appointment if had not given assurance of my intention to bring back two or more wives."

A Desperate Encounter.

On August 19, Robert Caskey will complete fifty years of constant service as assistant warden of the Western Pen itentiary of Pennsylvania period of service said to be without 8 parallel in prison records. MT. Caskey has lived several years beyond the Biblical limit but still is 8 hale and hearty man. ''Yes, I have had some fights" he said the other day to reporter ''The worst I ever had was with 8 prisoner named me if was prepared to die. I laughed, but he answered: T have sworn to kill that he asked, 'haveyou knife 2? No, said I, T haven't Well. take this, he said. He had got two shoe knives piece of hickory broom-stick, a blade sticking out each way. Then he had fashioned blades for another such weapon from the hinges of his bed. It was this knife he threw to me when he said take this, and as quick as that he struck at me with the knife he kept. There we were. It was dinner time and no one about, and like two duelists we faced each other. He missed me the first time, and on his second blow his knife passed between my left arm and my body I shut down on it, and the Most High helped me hold it there. Duffy had my other hand and I couldn't strike, but he was in the same fix. Then we struggled, neither speaking. Twice we went down, but without breaking our holds, and never thought of shouting. Finally, in kicking about the cell, we knocked over the bench and the noise was heard by the chaplain. He ran down and assistance came that overpow- cred Duffy. Both of us were worn out, but neither was cut"

Cherry Preserves.

The Morello cherry and the large red variety ordinarily used for pies, make the best preserves. Choose fine, sound fruit as large as possible, reservin the smaller fruit for marmalade. Stem the cherries, and stone the fruit without bruising it; this is not difficult if 8 quill is squarely cut off, and pushed evenly through the cherries from the stem end, thus pushing out the stones; all of the juice from the fruit should be saved. After the fruit is stoned weigh it, and allowan equal quantity of sugar; sprinkle the sugar among the cherries and let them stand for several hours, or over night, so that the sugar may slightly harden the fruit; then put the fruit, sugar and juice into apreserving kettle, place it over the fire, gradually heat them together, and then boil them gently until the cherries look clear, removing all scum as it rises. After the fruit is clear, take the preserving kettle from the fire, cover it, and let the preserves cool. When quite cool put the cherries into glass jars, lay piece of branded paper on the top of each jar, and then close them air-tight, and keep them in a cool, dark closet.
 l The sweeter varieties of cherries should be reserved for pies and buildings.

Convicted.

The following is a sample of the anec- dotes which are told at the expense of the native magistrates of India: An Eng fish official at Bombay so far forgot him. self not long ago as to kick an imperti- nent native cabman, and was summoned for assault before an Indian justice. The latter was a conscientious judge, but his desire to shield the Englishman was great.
 "Must I convict ?" he asked of the of- fender, in an awestruck whisper.
 "You must convict" was the honest reply.
 A conviction was thereupon recorded, and the magistrate, with anguish in every feature, next asked what penalty would be sufficient.
 The Englishman suggested 10 rupees as fair price for his misdemeanour, and fine of 10 rupees was duly in dicted
