IOWA.

In the Iowa Senate bill has been passed
amending the statute concerning the taxation
of church property. 1t exempts the building
or buildings owned by such societies and
used by them as churches or places of public
worship, with the grounds contiguous or APP
purtenant thereto, and actually used as part
of the ground of such building or buildings
Provided that parsonages ndresidence prop
erty owned by church, school or college in
stitutions, and used as residences by the
clergymen, teachers or professors of said
churches or institutions shall be taxable for
the value over $4,000.
All the ice-houses in Burlington and vi
entity were filed with the finest quality of
hard, clear and clean ice more than six
weeks ago, and it is estimated that the
amount packed is not less than 10000 tons.
Some of the ice was twenty-eight inches
thick and perfectly clear, and the average
cut will measure at least twenty inches.
Burlington Gazette: 'sRevolvers Is cents''
is a sign that can be seen at any time con-
spicuously placed over lot of pot-metal
pistols displayed in the front window of a
Burlington establishment The average
American boy-especially those raised in the
west, where fire arms are made familiar by
the frequency of their use in their hunt
would rather have one of those pistols than
go to a circus, and as soon as he can secure
the sixty-fve cents, he buys the pistols and be-
gins the dangerous and indiscriminate use
of the death dealing thing. Either the weap-
on eXplodes and lacerates his hand, or goes
off when mot loaded" and playmate,
brother or sister, becomes the victim of this
playful use of the pistol. Under any circum-
stances, these articles should not be sold to
boys, and it would be blessing if their sale
could be prohibited altogether.
Several robberies have been committed
around Des Moines lately, and the only
trace about them was a large colored woman
being seen near the premises not far from
the occurrence. On Friday last, police
man at the Northwestern depot, saw a
brawny-looking colored woman that he
thought too masculine in appearance to be a
female. On close inspection he saw the in
dividual had been shaved. He arrested the
pretended colored woman, and took her to
the lookup, when he found white man in
disguise, who appears to have been the thief.
The Sioux City Times Of the II inst, says
There is no perceptible change in the pros
poets for a breaking up of the Missouri
river. At Bismarck about six feet of water
is running on top of the ice. At Pierre there
is a little water on top of the ice. At Cham
berlain the ice has partially given way and
the water in the river having a rising tend
ency. At Niobrara the water in the river is
about three feet higher than here. At Yank-
ton the ice has been several times flooded,
but the continuous cold weather has frozen
over the water. The river rose about five
inches since yesterday at 10 a. m. here.

Clara Lousie Kellogg.

N. Y. Letter.
Once week Miss Clara Louise Kellogg is
at home to her friends, SO last Thursday
evening, Notwithstanding the elements, for
which read everything horrible you can
fancy, for, in fact, as some one said to me
yesterday, eve are having more weather to
the square inch than 1 ever conceived of in
whole season before" I appealed to the
guiding genius of a brilliant green street ear,
as it merrily bowled along through the slush,
hoped in, and a few minutes later, sans
goloeshoes, sans waterproof and sans UNI
brella, was ushered into Miss Kellogg's de-
lightful drawing room, where alreadya num-
Der of guests were collected. For fifteen
years or more Miss Kellogg and her mother
have made the Claradon their home when
resting from their labors, for Mrs. Kellogg,
if not before the public as prima donna,
has been an indefatigable worker in her
daughters interest and very powerful
factor in the accomplishment of the artists
successful career. For years parent and
daughter were never separated for one day,
and recollect well my surprise six or seven
years ago when told, on my accepting an
invitation to go with Miss Kellogg to Phila-
Qelpnla, Wnere Sne was 10 sing IOr nlSnI
or two, that it was the first time since the
beginning of her life in public she had gone
away for more than a'day without her
mother.
Naturally, as the Oldest of guests at the
Clarendon, the Kellogg's enjoy many privi
leges. They have the best rooms, and from
bell-boy to proprietors,. the devotion and
consideration of every member of the estab-
Hshment Miss Kellogg's drawing-room is
on the second floor, fronting on Fourth
avenue, and is an immense apartment,
probably thirty feet in length by twenty-four
in width. Little by little the hotel furnish
ings have disappeared to be replaced by ar
tstic odds and ends in chairs, touches, as
well as the merely ornamental objects, all or
nearly all picked up on her travels, for the
diva usually goes across the ocean once a
year.

Il Mormon Dental.
[Deseret, Utah News.


We notice that severalSeastern papers
make remarks on the governors attitude in
relation to the the University of Deseret
This institution is described in New York
Nail and Express as san exclusively Nor
mon school" It is stated also that the gov
srnor has attempted to appoint the chancel-
lor and regents according to law" also,
that because of this, "an irrepressible con-
Hict has broken out between the Mormons
and Gentiles."
These assertions are all erroneous. The
The University of Deseret is not an ''exclu-
sively Mormon school," it is open to pupils
of all classes, irrespective of creed or party.
It is exclusive in this-that no religious ten
ants are taught in it, and that theology does
not enter in any way into its course Of in
struction.

Gerste,'s Little Baby.
fst. Louis Globe Democrat. I


Nine. Gerster on her arrival found tele-
gram awaiting her which brought the cheer
full news from New York that Linda was well.
Linda is the baby. She is now about two
years old and is in the care Of her uncle, DR..
Gerster, who is practising physician in the
metropolis. The public owes much to the
baby, as the music-lovers of Baltimore have
good reasons to appreciate. The moth
er is entirely wrapt up in the child and SO
solicitous about her welfare concerning Lin
da's condition.
If anything ais the the baby Nine. Gerster
cannot sing. If the baby is smiling (by
telegram) the sunshine of a new-found joy
fills the donna's heart. If the baby cries
mamma hears its soft soprano wall over the
wires and a deep gloom settles upon her rhy-
thmic soul and the voice of the song bird
is drowned in tears 1t is only by the baby's
permission that the world hears her gifted
mother sing. A misplaced pin in the babys
trusses might rob the world forever of a large
share of music that is in it. A smile from
under the little black curls that cling to
baby's head can increase the record of high
C's with which this cautatrice has already
adorned the musical welkin. The baby has
dark features and raven hair of papa, and
that is probably why the mother takes such
an overwhelming interest in her. No incid-
ent of little Linda's daily life escapes NAM
mas careful attention The nurse must
furnish Uncle Gerster with frequent bulletins
of the baby's health, and Uncle Gerster adj
ministers paregoric, vermifuge, soothing
syrup or the bottle, as occasion requires, and
in quantities commensurate with either the
baby's appetite or the baby's ailment. Nam
ma Gerster is of course informed of all these
movements, and for while the operate
armament trembles while one of its stars
fairly shakes in No. ~ boots. But the worst
is past. Baby has had the measles, the Group
and the whooping- cough; her nose has
Strengthened out, and she has cut her teeth.

Remarkable Interpretation of a Line In
Macbeth,

Ionce mentioned in school report, how a
young man in training college, having to
paraphrase the famous passage in Macbeth
beginning,
Can'st thou not minister to mind diseased!
turned this line into Can you not wait upon
the lunatic?' And I remarked what curious
state of things it would be, if every pupil of
our national schools knew that when taper
burns the wax is converted into carbonic
acid and water, and thought at the same time
that good paraphrase for
Cans thou not minister to mind diseased?
was Can you not wait upon the lunatica' If
one is driven to choose, I think I would
rather have young person ignorant about
the converted wax, but aware that, Can you
not wait upon the lunatic2' is bad, than a
young person whose education had been such
as to manage things the other way.-Matte,c
A,nold, IN The Manhattan for Apra.

ton, to-day celebrated his eightyfrst birth
day. He was pleced in the Speakers chair
for half hour at to-night's session.. After
that dinner was given to him at the Ameri-

nous eel speech last winter, asking for the
protection of eel-fshing in the Musconet-
cong Valley, the dinner tonight was called
an eel dinner. The menu was very funny
1t was styled an seelemosynary'' lunch.
Carriages were to be ordered at eel-even
sharp. The soups were consomme of deep
water cells and eel chowder, Warren style.
The relishes were eels' brains, eels' feet,
eels' tongues, eels' lungs, eeIs' noses and
eels' soft hearts. Among the relishes was
roast cells, larded with plank road tooth
picks. Armitage sauce. Among the en-
trees were cut-glass cells, Dreaded in sawdust,
