THE uTAH BILL.

The Utah bill, as passed by the Senate, is | . very severe measure. It provides that a man or woman prosecuted for bigamy may 1 be compelled to testify. Prosecutions may be begun within five days after the com mission of the offense, and attachment may be Issued for 8 witness without previous sub- paens. A still more important provision is | that every marriage ceremony shall be cer- tifed in writing, which writing shall state the full name of all parties present at the ceremony and shall be signed by them, and this record shall be deposited by the officer or priest performing the ceremony in the pro- bate court. This record shall be taken as prima facie evidence of the marriage. Any violation of this provision. Subjects to 8 fine of $1, GOO CT two years imprisonment, or both The bill provides also that women shall not be entitled to vote in Utah. All measures of the territorial legislature providing for numbering or identifying the votes of the electors are disapproved and annulIed, but this provision is not to preclude lawful regis tration of votes or any other provisions for securing 8 fair election that do not involve disclosure of the person for whom the elector voted. The probate court is deprived of all jurisdiction except as to estates of deceased persons and the guardianship of person and property of.infants and lunatics. All laws of the territory of Utah conferring rights of inherit ance ofillegitimate children are annulled. Ter ritorial laws providing that prosecutions for adultery can only be commenced on the complaint Of the husband or wife are an nulled, and all such prosecutions may here mF Eoi knko sN,k kho kI,ok cautions for other crimes are. Territorial laws incorporating, continuing, or providing for the corporation known as the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and the ordinances of the so-cailed general assembly of the State of Deseret incorporating such church are snnulled, so far as they may pre- clude the appointment of trustees by the United States. The President of the United States, with the advice of the senate, shall appoint fourteen trustees of said corporation, who shall have the power of trustees and as- sistant trustees porvided for in the act creating that corporation, shall hold office two years and shall each give bond in an amount to be fixed by the secretary of the in- terior. They shall make an annual report to the secretary of all the property, business, affairs and operations of tho said corpora- ton; and the general assembly of Utah shall not have power to change the laws respect ing the corporation without the approval of congress.

tries in the Humboldt district, 8 entries in 1882 and 534 entries in 1883. A large pro portion of these lands have been desled over to the president of the California Red wood company, a corporation worked by English and Scotch capital mainly, and in 6 fair way to make some money unless made to conform to the laws of Oonggess. They have already secured 90. 900 sores of land in one tract at about $2. 50 per acre by getting irresponsible persons to swear that they take the l6O acre tracts Gin good faith" and to appropriate them to their town exclusive use and benefit" MT. Gardner maintains that by some combination with officials it is almost impossible for any outside party to secure these sections, and he appeals to the secretary, on the legal evidence which he and others have submitted, to cancel all the ''dnmmy" timber entries in the Il townships of the county where the California Redwood company are operating.
 new danger has been discovered in sani- tary organizations. The ubiquitous baote- rium, which proves to be the germ of SO many obscure diseases, has been found by M Parize, French savant to take up it's abode in brick walls. Noticing some pseu- liar mark on the outside of the wall, he scraped little of and placed it under magnifying power of three hundred; the re- suit of which was to show myriads of or ganisms moving about with extraordinary activity. It was the more singular that this red dust had been covered with layer of lime quarter of an inch thick. Under the impression that the bacteria might have been a superficial deposit, M. Parize then drilled hole into the very cantre of the brick, and to his great surprise discovered that the pow dered material was full of the same living or- ganisms, although not in such large quanti- ties as in the external layer. To make sure that this was not an exceptional brick, he carried On his experiments at various places in the walls, and always with the same re- suit, that the bricks were more or less in- preguated with bacteria, which appear to flourish equally well in brick wall as in saucer of some fermenting substance. There can be very little doubt that woodwork is often source of danger from the same cause, perplexing, malarious fever having been traced by the doctors of San Francisco to certain decayed foundations and wood floors, which abound in that city, and which, when taken down, were found to be swarm ino with nrooDiens

1t is to be noticed, in the first place. that the comparison is made in the towns and not for the country districts.

 The new Press bureau at Constantinople, which is under the direction of Mediid Pasha an. ."smiable and intelligent" man, has since ! it's establishment made the task of conducting

IN DURANGO VILE,

Some weeks ago the DAILY EAGLE con-
tanned an account of the confession Of a
man named Joe Fisher, who was in the
Cowley county Jail. In said confession
Fisher admitted stealing horse, some
three years ago from a. II. Hargett, of this
county, and went so far as to tell where
the animal was and who owned h i'm at the
present time. Acting on this information
Hargett found and identified his stole
horse and caused a warrant to be issued
for the arrest of the acknowledged thief.
The warrant was sent TO Sheriff Mcintyre,
of Winfield. who arrived in Wich-
ita Wednesday having Fisher in
charge, his term OF Imprisonment having
expired in Cowley county, and he was
given over into the custody OF our officers,
and committed TO Jail to await his examin-
alton which Ia set to take place in Justice
Hobbs court next Saturday. Joe Fisher l.
a SON of Mr. Fisher, of this county, and on
his arrival here was met in the justice q
court by his father, who seemed greatly
affected to see his son in irons. Joe re.
quested his father TO come and see him in
Jail. but the old genteman's feeli ngs were
too much wrought up to make answer and
he turned aud left the court room.
