A Drink Of COcOanut Milk.

Apart even from the manifold merits
of the tree that bears the cOcoanut, the
milk itself has many and great claims
to our respect and esteem, as every
body who has ever drunk it in its
native surrounding will enthusiastically
admit. To he sure, the white milk in
the dry nuts is very poor stuff, sickly,
and strong favored and rather indi-
gestible. But in the tropics, cOcoanut
milk, or, as we oftener call it there,
cocoanut water, is very different and
vastly superior sort OF beverage. AT

"E'Ho! Ship ahoy!' rang out his can;

All, then we prayed for morning light.
Each heart was filled with fear and dread
As, through the silence and the night,
That shapeless craft before ue sped.
The dawn lit up the eastern sky.
And blacker yet the dark hulk seemed,
It's strange form riveted each eye.

MORALIsT MURRAY.

Murray, ~ everybody knows, is
governor Of Utah. Lest anyone
should remain ignorant Of this his
toric fact, Murrry has rushed in TO
magazine print, interviews and SEN
sational messages. There are several
other governors in these United
States, besides MUIR ay, but he is the
only genuine Murray. Besides
being governor of Utah, he is also a
stern moralist, this Murray il. In
deed it Is in the latter capacity that
he excess His efforts to convert
the wicked Mormons to the path of
virtue are among the grandest spec
tacles Of unseiisb devotion to
q righteous cause on record.
Mr.. Murray does heroic battle
against the twin relic. He
wants the Mormons to pay the
taxes and the Gentiles to hold the
Offices, and thus polygamy will 60.
In THE the governor is probably
right. Such an arrangement would
effectually drive out the Mormons,
including the twin relic," and
leave the Office holders masters of
the situation and the Territory.
But this is merely matter of Sec
ondary consideration with Mr.. Muir
ray. What he is mostly striving
for is the morality Of the Territory
entrusted to his executive care.
And for moral task the Governor
is the right man in the right place
beyond doubt.
Some years ago Mr.. Murray had
the pleasure Of being United States
marshal Of Kentucky. In that ca
pacity his moral proclivities had not
fair opportunity to come into play,
but what little there was of 1t Mr..
Murray fully employed. Reform,
like murder, will out. In short, Mr..
Murray, while marshal of Ken.
lucky, contrived to collect certain
sums of money belonging to the
United States, amounting to many
tn 1usand dollars, and fearing for the
safety Of the money in the hands of
corrupt Washington officials, kept
it in his capacious pocket to this
day. An agent was sent out to In
vestigats the fsc's, and dis
agreeing with Marshal Murray
as to the propriety of retaining
or forwarding the collected funds,
the moralist of these latter days was
forced to resign. He would have
been prosecuted as common de-.
faulter but for the better second
thought of the Department Of JUS
tice and the influence Of certain
| friends who saved him for q nObler
duty. That he should have been
appointed Governor of Utah after
such a performance was only too
natural. The Mormons need a man
of sublime moral sense, and they
have him. 1t Is to be feared, how
ever, that they will not nave him
much longer. Mr.. Springer's COM
mittee is likely to engage Governor
Murray's attention for some time to
come, to the neglect of the moral
oversight of the Utah saints. Muir
