In the waving harvest fields in Christ's
kingdom and gathering sheaves of immor-
tai souls? In short, is it not high time
that we have laid aside every weight and
the sins that do easily beset us and were
running swiftly the race set before us?"
In the evening Mr.. Sanders theme was
this: Every man should serve his own
generation. Acts IS, 8.
THE PRESBYTERIAN CHuRcH.
At the Presbyterian Church the SER
vices were very interesting as well as in
structive. Both morning and evening
the Rev. DR.. Chapman preached elo-
quently and forcibly and the singing by
the choir was excellent. The subject of
the morning discourse was Come, see
the place where the Lord lay" At the
Sunday school there was exhibited a large
picture of an arch drawn in colored crayon
on the blackboard and entitled "The
Resurrection of Christ, the key stone of
the Christian Arch" 1t was designed to
make plain the truth that all the Christian
doctrines are dependent upon the rcsur-
rection. This picture was briefly ex-
planned by the pastor at the evening SER
vices. The discourse at night was upon
The five appearings of Christ on the
day of His resurrection" The singing
during the day was appropriate to Easter.
OTHER CHURCHES.
At the Methodist Church special Easter
services were also held, Rev. DR.. Eldridge
preaching an unusually interesting ser.
mon.
The Baptists held no special services
but their little church was well filed.
The Colored Methodists also held
special services and Elder John Eames at
his miniature tabernacle of the Church of
the Latter Day Saints did not forgesthe
day.

On yesterday morning Officer Nolan
took five tramps under sentence out of
the calaboose and set them to work under
the direction and in charge of Mr.. Bres-
nahen down on Fifteenth street. Before
leaving the prisoners, the officer cautioned
them that they must not make an at
tempt to escape; that it was important
that they be held. Injured justice de-
manded their presence here until they
had paid the penalty of a violated law.
Nolan left them there and went away, but
alas for the faith that is placed in man.
Their tramp was soon heard in the direc-
ton of the bluffs south of the railroad and
notwithstanding the alleged hot pursuit
that was made, they escaped. Nolan felt
so badly about it that he borrowed a wash
tub of Underwood and wept it full Of
briny tears and Billy Lee suggested that
the City Hall be draped in mourning.

Broke His Arm.

On yesterday two cowboys rounded up
a jack somewhere in the city and brought
him up in front of the Simmons House
where they proceeded to have consider
able fun with the animal, riding him
around in front of the hotel and also up
and down the street for a short distance
to the great amusement of a large num-
Der of bystanders-mostly cowboys. At
tracted thither by the fun there came two
small colored children, Il little boy and a
girl. 1t occurred to some of those present
that these little ones would like to take a
ride on the back of the frisky little jack.
They were consequently, with their own
consent, placed on the back of the animal,
while N of the ~bystanders led the mule
around, which for a time seemed agree
able to all parties interested. Finally,
however, the children were suddenly
thrown to the ground by a quick move
ment of the jack and the little boys arm
was broken by the fall. He was picked
up and carried to his home near by and a
physician sent for who proceeded to set
the broken member. The little fellow S
name is Jerry Dirrick and at last accounts
he was doing as well as could be expected.

.'AU REVOIR.',
a Farewell Banquet rendered To Wy
Omlng's New Chief Justice.


IRON INC BROOKLYN, N. Y, Union.
The Brooklyn Club, of which the Hon.
John c. Perry, the newly-appointed Chief
Justice of Wyoming Territory. is a mem
Der, gave that gentleman a complimentary
farewell dinner last night, AT the rooms of
the club, corner of Clinton and Remsen
streets. 1t was an exclusively club affair.
Covers were laid for sixty guests. Among
the floral decorations were a large floral
horseshoe suspended over the head of the
guest OF the evening, and a basket of flow
ers in front of him bearing the legend
'Au revoir." When the banquet was
ended Judge Pratt proposed the health of
Chief-J ustice Perry in a brief congratula-
tory speech, to which Judge Perry respon-
ded in a brief address, in which he said
among other things:
Over twenty years have | devoted to
and practiced my profession among you,
and L never knew before the strength of
the ties that had grown about my heart.
The duties of the honorable position to
which the Government has called me re-
quire me to reside in the Territory of Wy
oming. This indeed is in the far West, but
so great are the facilities for travelling,
which the inventive genius of the age has
supplied, that this remote point is really
but the distance of n Summer trip. The
Territory has considerably more than
double the area of the State of New
York unoccupied. 1t is a region full of
interest to the philanthropic mind. There
may be seen the gathering germs of civil
l~zation, the crystalization of free commu-
mites, and the evolution and development
of new states on a scale of which human
history affords no parallel Now, in part
ing, let me say that while | I'M fully con-
scious of many mistakes, yet in every po-
sition of trust which | have held among
you, | have honestly e~ndeavored always to
do my duty. 1t is this fact alone, rather
than to any great achievement, which
doubtless prompts you to extend to me
this highly priced honor. In the new
career my first and highest aim shall be to
do my duty to God and man. l trust to
bring. no shame upon you, brethren and
friends, and though all other aims may
fail, l shall at least retain in whatever l do
the approval of my own conscience.

A BOLD
A Drummer Relieved of One Hundred
and Forty Dollars by all I'M
known Man.

On Saturday morning a drummer by
the name of Shuttle arrived in the city
and in due time proceeded to look around
the town with a view of transacting a
little business in his line. Being of a
convivial and social disposition he looked
upon the wine when there was just a triae
of redness in the fluid. He perambulated
around the city for the greater part of the
day, taking a little something now and
then, Night found him taking in the
town in a mild way. Late in the even
ing he brought up at the corner of Six
tenth and Eddy streets. While standing
there for a moment alone he was APP
preached by an unknown man who sud
denly drew a knife and ripped open the
drummer's pocket. Before Schultze had
time to recover from his surprise a roll of
bills amounting to $40 which dropped
out was seized by the unknown man,
who fed Immediately. Schultze under
took to follow but before he had time to
discover really which way the thief had
gone he had disappeared altogether. Be
ing well fixed financially he did not care
to make much of a stir in regard to the
matter and therefore did not call the
police. He did reveal the matter, how
ever, to Mr.. Jenkins, of whom he Dor
rowed money to telegraph to his house in
Chicago to forward funds to replace those
which he had lost.

A TENDEREooT,s GAIT.
Covering More Laps to the Mile Than a
Mad Bull.

The Fort Mcleod Gdz'tte tells an
amusing story of a heightened tcnderfoot
who ~venturcd on foot among some wild
cattle in that region. The animals gazed
upon him in dumb amazcmcnt for a few
moments, but finally a fcrocious old bull
turned upon him and the verdant young
man started to fee. The Gdz,ue con-
tinuing the story says:
The cowboys were watching the pro-
ceedings and at this time one of them
rode up and roped the bull. Seeing n
good opportunity for some sport he took
a turn around the horn of his saddle, and
shouting TO the young man to run for his
life, just held the bull in so that he could
not quite reach him, and the race began
in earnest. The cowboy pretended he
could not hold the bull and the tendcrfoot
worked his legs and arms like a windmill
in q hurricane; the bull was allowed to
breathe all over him and occasionally Just
Craze the sitting-dOwn part of his trousers.
Urged onward by the close proximity of
the beast, and with all the horrors of
being gored to death passing in a rapid
panorama before his terrified vision, he
fairly flew. Finally exhaustion brought
about his collapse, and the cowboy, taking
another turn around the horn of his saddle
held the bull off a few PAGES, snorting and
believing with rage. The cowboy in
formed the young mar that he had had a
narrow escape, and that it was all he could
do to manage the bull, advising him to 60
into training for the next race, as the pace
which he struck would distance the best
runner in the country in a mile"

A WATER PETITION.

Mr.. E, l.. 7. Harrison, q resident
on "Heber's Bench" or Arsenal
Hill, has a communication in this
issue of The HERALD regarding a
petition that is being prepared for
presentation to the City Council.
The proposition advanced is an
eminently fair and proper one, and
its justice ought to be conceded
both by the Council and the public.
It is simply to allow the dry bench
ers the privilege of using the waters
which now run to waste. No rea,
sonable person can raise an objection
to this. Il should be an easy matter
to determine the amount of water
necessary to supply that portion OF
the city which claims a prior title
to the streams entering the town,
and that amount having been
ascertained, the surplus should be
put where it would do the most
good. That that place is the inhab>
tied section without water there can
be no denying. It is fact that with
the exception Of a month or six
weeks at most, in any season, water
flows to waste constantly; and the
stream. II utilized, would not only
prove a great accommodation to
many hundreds of people unfortu-
nateIy located in respect of water,
but would also increase the value of
much property taxable by the Cor
poratiOn. THE HERALD bespeaks
for the petition of Mr.. Harrison
and associates favorable action on
5he part Of the Council, and believes
much relief will come from the
granting of the request.

John 3. Cough.

No other man living has addressed
40 many OF the sons and daughters
of Adam as John B. Cough. He
was born in England, leaving there
for America when II years old. by
profession he was a bookbinder,
working at that trade when ne
joined the ranks OF temperance
His fame rs a speaker spread with
lightning-like rapidity and he soon
had to devote all his time to lectur
ing, and as be travelled from city to
city no hall was found large enough
to contain the crowds that iocked
to hear him. The writer OF this ar
ticle can well recollect the occasion
of his first visit to England and also
attending his first lecture in Liver
pool. Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe,
sister Of the famous Henry Ward
Beecher, had written that MIR. Cough
chad no equal in the English
language" so people were prepared
for something great and they GER
tainly were not disappointed. Twice
as mary were turned away from
the doors as could possibly get
packed into the large hall.
Mr.. Cough spoke for two
hours, but it did not seem
ten minutes. No sensational drama
ever produced as many tears; no
comedy ever produced as much
laughter. His power as a word
painter was so great that when de-
scribing the drunksrd's ca,eer az
boat on the Niagara river, approach
ing and finally dsshing over the
rapids, more than half the audience
rose to their feet positively looking
for the boat. At the close of his
peroration men and women sprang
to their feet and waved hats and
handkerchiefs for several minutes. |
Thirty years have now elapsed, but
the memory of that leclurs is as
fresh as if it were yesterday.
1t will be seen from our advertis- |
ing columns that Mr.. Cough lec-
lures in the Salt Lake Theatre on |
Friday next. It will probably be |
the only occasion that Salt Lakels |
will have the opportunity of hearing |
him. They should not miss it.
