MORMON LIFE.
By JOAQUIN MILLER.
10 BE PUB ISHEB N THE "IElDER.r

joaquin Miller has become wide
ly known as one OF the most pow
erful dramatic writers America
has ever produced His stories
are eagerly sought by the foremost
periodicals of the country, and his
great American drama, The Dan
ties" has been played for years to
crowded houses throughout Amer
lea and England. His "So1gs
of the Sierras," first published III
London, awakened a forore Of en-
and he was at once iii
onized" by English society, his
popularity equaIhng that of Bret
Harte.
His life has been Singularly rO-
mantle one. When a lad he was
taken to Oregon to live, at time
when white settlers were almost
unknown there. He practiced
mining in California during that
memorable time of excitement tol-
lowing the discovery of gold. He
was one Of the Nicaragua Expedi-
ton, in 1855, under Gen. Walker,
and after many adventures with
Indians and miners, he became q
Judge in Oregon. He is at present
building a log-caban on one of the
prominent sites at Washington, D.
c., which he expects to occupy as
soon as it is completed.
His new story, "Scaled Unto
Him. is founded on facts, some OF
them from his personal experience.
1t treats of the Danites, or "aveng-
ing angels" Of the Mormon church,
as they existed over thirty years
ago. The foremost character, the
one about whom the story revo yes,
is a Mormon elder. a leader of the
Danites, q madmar in his fanatical
zeal, and giant in stature and
strength. He is one of the most
powerful dramatic creations that
haye appeared IN modern fiction.
The heroine of the story is
beautiful young lady, who, in al
ignorant freak, is induced to be-
como "sealed' to a Mormon elder,
before the sect had removed from
Illinois to Salt Lake City. Fear
ing the vengence of the Danitcs
because of her refusal to accompa-
ny the elder, as a wife, to Salt Lake
City, her father endeavors to spirit
her away to California. On the
! Journey overland, the emigrant
train which they accompany passes
by Salt Lake City, and here it is
the vengeance of the"avcnging an
gels" overtakcs them, and "they
are judged-and are not. The
journey, with its suspicious cluster
ing around a colossal and mysteri-
Gus figure, which forms one OF the
train; ths suspense as they near
Salt Lake City A.; the secret work
of the Danites the flight of the
girl and her final fate, are told
with a realism and dramatic force
rarely found in the fiction of any
age.
The story is a timely AS well US
thrilling one. 1t deals with II
people and fauaucism that are az
present the centre of national in
terest, and an interest which is
bound to grow greater before il
grows less"
The LEADER has made a special
contract with the gifted author t.
publish his story, and next week, will
from his proof sheets, publish the
first chapter, and every week there
after until it is completed. 1t will
run through ten numbers. This i,
a "new departure" in country
, journalism, which We hope will bt
duly appreciated by our readers,

FORTY MILES AND BACK

with Ki. Harrison and Sam'l N.
Williams, on a blackboard, and be-
hind a span of thoroughbred mules,
we shit the road" leading from
this burgh to Lincoln, via. Nogal
and Ft. Stanton. 1t would be te-
tious to reader and writer to pc
ruse or pencil all of our trip, mas
much as prior journeys leading to
and from the points named, have
been written up and published by
us, but there are a few things OBJ
served by us deserving of NEIL
ton.
We had never before visited Fl.
Stanton, always, heretofore, taking
on our way to Lincoln, the Patos
road. We had often heard the Ft.
and its surroundings spoken of as
bOnitO, and the picture of its beau
ty had not been overdrawn. We
arrived there about 5 p. m, and
found it apparently deserted, off
GERS and men evidently being in
their quarters, writing, probably,
letters to loved ones in the States.
We were, possibly, the better en-
abled to take in the panorama so
invitihgly spread before us-the
buildings, parade grounds, prone
made walks, etc. We had seen
many FCrts before, but never one
that had not the semblance of Of
fense or defeuse. 1t is located on
a plateau, from which can be seen
on either side hills, mountains,
timber, prairie land, and water
courses, and as the sun was about
completing its "grand rounds" it
cast a benignant and effulgent gaze
from its blue dome down upon the
scene on which we were gazing,
which rendered the sight enchant-
irg.
Our stay at the Fort was neces-
sarily brief, and we sped on to our
shlrc-town, where we arrived a
little after darkness had filled its
streets. The night being a plea
SAINT and inviting one, everybody
seemed to be on the streets, and
the agreeable office of shaking
hands was soon commenced and
long INDUCED in, the writer and
his associates seeming to be in
good flavor with the denizens OF
Lincoln. After a few hours of re-
pose we were again on the streets,
where we met several more friends
and the "pump-handle" operation
was renewed. The people, gener
ally, must have known that very
soon we would turn our tace toward
home, as nearly every man (anC
some women, Mrs. j. NJ. David
son in the lead, invited us to din
ner. A little after 9 q. m. OF
Monday we started for home by the
same route VS. travelled the day be
tore. and a little before noon ar
rived at Ft. Stanton, where we tar
ricd short time, witnessed a com
pany cavalry drill, saw no old &c
quaintainces, and without making
any new ones, again faced home.
Arriving at Nogal it was hard t,
pull out from Nat Moore's withou
tarrying for the night, but We did,
and arrived here about z IN. OF
Monday.
We haye not space for furthc
particulars, save that we never saw
