Intense excitement has prevailed
amongst the wor king classes in the
pOtteries during the past few days in
Consequence OF the extraordinary
scenes witnessed at Hanley In con-
nection with the Salvation army. Mai.
Pearson, OF Manchester, an officer in
the Salvation army, states that Tor the
past seven months he has been endOw-
ed with the power of healing the sick,
restoring sight to the blind, making
the deaf to hear, and the dumb 10
speak. This remarkable power, he
says, came To him quite unexpectedly.
at one OF the army mestings at Man
chester hs felt compelled TO lay his
hands upon a man ''WhO cried for
healing" and no sooner had he done
so than the man was cured of his in

che. only person in the army possessing
this power, but now two others are
endowed with the gift Of healing. One
IS Mrs. Ely, OF Manchester, whom he
IS alleged to have cured after being
given up by all doctors, and the other
is Mai. Fawcetb, OF Hanley. Mai. Pear
son does not profess to be able to sucs
cesd in every CO Sc, those who are at
least amenable to his healing power
being what he terms the unsaVed.
Though he has visited a number OF
towns during the period he asserts he
has possessed such WO nderful power
over disease, it is at Hanley he has
most exerted himself, and it is here he
has attracted the greatest amount of
attention. Several faith-healing meet

-Affer General Grant.

General A. Mod. McCook, now in command
at Fort Douglas, Utah, was interviewed in
reference to General Grants structures upon
him in q magazine article on the battle of
Shiloh. McCook says that In a few days he
will, through the proper channels, call atten-
ton to a few matters concerning the battle of
Shiloh and his part therein, which Will show
that what General Grant says about him INC
Cook in the matter is absolutely without
foundation in fact. He says General Grant
has persistently pursued him for TWEEN y-two
years, and that the attack of the reUeis at
Pittsburg Landing was Il complete surprise to
General Grant. McCook differs from General
Grant on anumber of other important points.
and says this is the first time he has ever
broken the silence on the subject. 1888

wives of the married men are in Utah.
They baptize by immersion and believe
that baptism is essential. They also
rebaptize those who come to them
from the Baptist church. They seem
to make sort of ''straddle" on Calvin
ism, preaching that doctrine in way
that would have pleased Jonathan Ed
wards, but at the same time they
preach free agency. AS to their belief
in the book of Mormon and the infalli-
bility of the teachings of their elders,
they are as devout as the best secta-
rians in the land. They do not preach
that men should have plurality of
wives in state that forbids it. In all
cases they advise their followers to
obey the laws of the country. | asked
Mr., Russell what he would do if he and
his wife were to move to Utahp Would
he take other wives? He said: THAT
would not be as please. The church
would have to be satisfied as to my
character before permission would be
granted, and it may be that revela-
ton is necessary. They allow only
such persons TO marry as are able. to
support families"
On the temperance question they are
as dry as st. John or Mrs. Chaplin.
They preach against the use of ardent
spirits, and practice what they preach.
There were no dram-shops, gaming
houses or brothels in Utah until the
''gentiles" introduced these civilizing
and elevating institutions.
1t seems to be the intention of these
people to continue this missionary
work until the elder tramps over every
county of the state. They are gener-
ally quiet and well behaved people,
and are well read in their own litera-
ture. Books, tracts, pamphlets, and
papers are distributed. The Desert
NesOs is their organ. 1t is rather diff
cult to ascertain what is the object of
the Mormon church in sending out
missionaries to the south. The gener-
al opinion is that they wish immi-
grants to go to Utah in order to keep
up Mormon majority there, and at
the same time colonize Idaho, Colora-
do, and Wyoming. They do not ex-
pect membership or church organiza-
ton here.
Our government officers are, per-
haps, doing wrong when they attack the
Mormon church as a church. They
should attack polygamy and prevent
that in states and territories. Take
that practice away from the Mormon
church and it, the church, would cease
to be national evil. Their revelations
and Mormon bible and titles would not
be a national calamity.
Our people here have the question
to meet at home. Shall the elders be
driven from the country or permitted
to remain and preach their doctrinesP
On this you will find our people divid-
ed in opinion.

When Drunkenness Was A Virtue.

The reign of Geroge LII. of England
was the most openly dissolute period
in the history of Great Britain. State
officials who had required regulations
for drunkenness were then the most
popular. 1t was then that govt at
tanned its highest degree of perfection.
A man who did not wear a split shoe
was only under protest admitted into
the circles of polite society. Sir Philip
Francis, upon awakening atnight and
finding himself sober, would immedi-
ately get out of bed and proceed to get
drunk again. Lord Weymouth, after
spending fortune and becoming utter
ly worthless, was appointed Secretary
of State in recognition of his abilities
as drunkard.

A Scotchman who had acquired
large wealth in India returned to his
native place, but finding the time hang
ing heavy on his hands, and being OF
an active mind, concluded to start q
newspaper. This was in 1910. He
grew tired of it, and without word

1850 he renewed the publication, and
in his first editorial he stated: "Since
the publication of our last paper moth

had changed the fate of empires Were

STATE CORRESPONDENCE.

number of business men and property owners congregated near the Mansion House, Derby Narrows, last evening to witness trial of the 'sRoyal'' fire extinguisher, which is a cylinder holding three quarts of fluid and has a tube extending to the bottom worked by a rubber valve, which congresses the air and forces the fluid on to the fire. A box was made (open on one side and end and about eight feet high.) It was coated with far and kerosene oil poured on to the tar A fire was then built on the bottom of the box and the fire leaped into the air over twenty feet and burned for few moments. Then man operated the extinguisher and the fire was put out at once. The box was again coated with tar and kerosene oil thrown on. The fire was then rebuilt and burned as fercely as before and it was put ont instantly. On examination we found the tar and oil burned off and the wood bad ly charred It was very successful trial, and the agent is selling 8 number of them.

Dr. Baldwin was called and reduced the fracture. Some blame Jones, but we find he was not to blame, that it was purely accidental
