ABOUND THE WORLD.
Remarkable Cruise Of all English
Lord lii al Ancient Vessel.

The New York Graphic says: MOI
JonS ago there came to New York one
Of the most extraordinary looking
vessels that has entered this port since
the days of Hend1ick Hudson. Her
name was the Tibernian from London
aud she belonged principally to Ar
thur, Lord Somerset, son Of the earl
Of Devon. While her extelior re
minded one Of a picture in book on
the early development of naval archi-
lecture, her interior presented the ex-
traordinary contrast Of a passenger
steamer or yacht of the latest design.
Lord Somerset, a tall, blonde young
man, hardly 80 years of age, had an
interest in craft he called the Tiber-
nian, built many years ago as trans
port ship by the East India company,
be thought that if he loaded her up
with wines, liquors and cigars, and
gathered around him a congenlal com
pany of lively spirits, he might sail
around the world and have a good
time for about year. About twenty
five young bloods engaged passage on
The 1lbernian. Nearly an equal num-
| Der OF lively young women also en-
gagged, altogether about forty-fve per
sons. Before the vessel left huge
cargo Of good things was put on board,
some of which it has since appeared
has not been paid for Portuguese
ports were visited and then the Tiber-
nian crossed the Atlantic. She went
to ports in South America, West In
dies, and wherever the ship landed
her passengers painted the town red.
She went to New Orleans. A mutiny
broke out among the female passen-
gers, who began quarreling among
themselves, and many Of them, with
some'of the men, We're left on land
while the vessel sailed for New York.
While at Brook yn he resolved to give
up the rest of the trip. This decision
was fastened by the arrival of dep
uty sheriff and the seizure Of the yes
sci for debt and the arrest Of the no.
ble lord at the head of the expedition.
He was quietly released, however, and
Immediately brought suit against a
Brooklyn paper that salt! his cruise
was gotten up for immoral purposes
The Tibernian then came to Pier IA,
East River. Her cabins We're taken
out and general cargo put in for
Australia, whittier she sailed a few
days ago. The noble lord disembark-
ed and went west to test the shooting
in the Yellowstone valley, where, per-
haps, he still remains, while uncon
sumed wines and spirits, worth at
least $4,000, were taken out Of the
ship and taken back toLondon.
We believe this same nabob, a son
of lord, or more properly speaking,
son of gun, has been doing Mon
taaa, yeh know, hunting, fishing. and
waiting for a remittance, yeh know,
from the gov'ne: He was in Helena
last week, and it is reported has gone
to the Park.

A pEESEVERING LIEUTENANT.

Washington special telegram says:
Army men here regard Second Lieut..
Edward 3. Avis, of the Fifth infantry,
now stationed at Fort keogh, Mont,
as more than ordinary young man.
He graduated In 1880 from West
Point. He has in the interval made
record for kicking up bobbery that
is beyond competition. His last at
! tempt was the indictment of Colonel
Cochran for perjury. In this prompt
acquittal for time echpsed his geni-
us, bat bat the officers over at the war de-
paftment are confident that young
Avis will not drop the matter, and
that it will bob up again in some
shape before the department. A well
known general in the army relates
the following incident to illustrate
The persistency Of Lieut.. Avis The
circumstances alluded to are recent,
The final steps in the affair having
been taken only last week: '.Not long
ego some matters at the post whore
he is stationed did not suit him, and
he w1ote an official letter to the post
commander concerning it. The COM
mander ruled against Linn, and re-
turned the papers. Not satisfied, the
lieutenant forwarded the papers to
Gen. Terry and was again ruled
against. Next he appealed TO Major
Gen. Schofeld, the division comman-
der, and again the papers were re-
Turned disapproved. Not yet daunt-
ed, the embryo general forwarded the
accumulated documents, all this time
following the regulation to send all
communications through the proper
military channels, to Lieut.. General
Sheridan, who promptly ''sat on the
young man in his peculiar way and
sent back the papers again. This, Of
course, ended the matter? Not much.
They were sent on their way again,
through the proper channels" to the
secretary of war, who gasped at the
young mans brass-buttoned cheek.
a1d then, following suit with General
Sheridan and his other subordinates,
decided the case and returned the pa
pers. Thereupon the same young
man deliberately took pen and paper
and wrote Secretary Endicott, asking
him to refer all papers in the case to
Attorney General Garland for his
opinion, as he, the lieutenant, "does
not feel satisfied with the ruling of
the secretary OF war" It is stated
taat there was really no actual neces-
sity for the room to warm up as it did
when this last very modest request
was received, but it did, and Mr. En-
dicott is said to have expressed the
opinion that If the lieutenant was DIS
satisfied with the ruling, he would
have to struggle along the best he
could.

STORY OF MORMON LIZ Z.
The Sad Experience of all Fn"lisi
Woman Who Went Caazy AfGei.
Her HuesDand took a See
oHd Wife.

Between tho two evils, Mormcrs
and Cinnamon, which are allowed the
rights of suffrage in America, it is
difficult TO say which is the lesser. IF
the Cinnamon are offensive. the Nor
mons are obnoxious. and SO on through
the category. A most pitable case OF
Mormon cussedness. is shown in the
following letter to the New York
Sun, from the pen Of a Salt Lake
gentleman:
An honest-looking Englishman
named Mower arrived here a few
years ago with his wife and three
small children, and settled at Brig
ham. The man was industrious. but
he appeared to be something Of IA
natic in religion. It was plain that
the Saints had got a pretty firm hold
on him. His wife was "a fair-haired,
rosy-cheeked little woman, and their
children were delecate and attractive.
The wife and mother went through
the ceremony of joining the church
after her arrival The husband had
been received into the fold before he
left England. They got themselves a
home, and appeared happy enough,
until the husband, over-persuaded by
an elder of the church, determined on
taking another wife. The woman se-
lected was a new arrival from Den
mark who could not speak a word of
English, and for whom it was the es-
pecial desire Of the church to get ''an-
chored' here. Mower was the man

A TERRIBLE MYSTERY.

The Sunday Capital prints the fol-
lowing: In 1864 lieutenant from an
Ohio village was killed in battle in
Virginia, and his body was sent home
and buried with military honors, and
a handsome monument erected over
it by the citizens of the place. He left
a widow to whom he had been marri-
ed only year, and for more than
twenty years she has been trying to
get a pension. She cannot prove that
her husband is dead. Every few
months she receives letter from him
written in hand as familiar as her
own. Two letters never come from the
same place. He appears to know what
is going on at home, and always al
ludes to local occurrences with a ia
mlllal1ty that is amazing. He never
gives any clue to his whereabouts, and
no detective has been able to find him.
Her friends believe that the writer is
crank or malicious person who takes
this way to annoy her. The only cir
aumstance to suggest that it may pos
sibIy be her husband are the penman-
ship and the familiarity the writer
shows with the lady's private life, but
how he could keep himself is another
question that cannot be solved. Sew
eral time the writer has intimated that
he might soon pay her visit, but the
next letter always contains an apollo
gy for not doing so. The woman has
suffered agony Of mind beyond de-
scripsion, and her life has been ruin
ed by this horrible mystery.

who was expected to marry her, and
MARI y her he did. His wife held out
strenuously against the woman for
some time, and refused to live under
the same roof with her, but at last
under the pleadings and threats of the
dignataries Of the Church and the
representations of the husband as to
his own poverty and inability to pro-
vide Two homes, she consented. After
that she began to appear like another
woman. Her hair became silvery,
her form wasted, and her eyes were
bright and gljttering. She wandered
over the country great deal with her
little ones, and could be seen day af-
ter day on the 1oadsides with her lit
tie ones, caressing and weeping over
them. Sometimes in pleasant weather
she did not return to her home for
days, and when she did she would
have the children decked out in fan
tastlc Wreaths and flowers gathered
by her own hands in the valleys Her
husband followed her, and tried to
persuade her to return and be her
self, but to no purpose. Then he
locked her up or took the children
away from her. She would find
them again, and together they would
return to the open country All were
sabdued and sorrowful, and yet the
chlldlshness of the mother was Just as
pronounced as that Of her children.
She would run with them, kiss them,
build little dams for them in the
brooks, construct playhouses for
them of stone, weave garlands, and
deck herself and them. If they cried
she gathered them to her, and wept
with them, and if they laughed she
chided them
Finally her mood changed, and, in
stead of delighting in rambles with
the little ones, she became absorbed
IN desire for vengeance. She would
steal up stealthily to the house which
was hers no longer, and make assaults
on the woman who had usurped her
place. Once she set fire to the prem
ises and then fed On another occa-
sion she took her children and was
absent SO long that search was made
for ler. After three or four days she
was found several miles from home.
almost dead from hunger, and the
children weak and emaciated from
the same cause, and all crying bitter
ly. She had dug small holes in the
ground, which she called their graves
and the little ones were waiting with
her for the last dread summons.
Three men found difficulty lin over
powefing her, despite her weakened
condition. and the entire party were
then conveyed to town and cared for.
The children went to their father and
the woman was placed in the asylum
at Provo, where she is now.
