been in captivity 70 years, Cyrus, King of
Persia, having conquered Babylon, set
them at liberty, and issued decree by
which they were permitted to return to
their own county and to rebuild Jerusalem
and the temple, 543 B. G. He restored to
them all the sacred utensils which Nebuoh-
adnezzar had taken away from the temple.
He laid down plan of the new temple and
ordered that the expense of erecting it
should be paid out of the royal treasury.
All who desired it were allowed to remain
in their present places of residence and to
contribute as much as they pleased to the
holy edifice.
It may be proper to observe that the lsra-
elites who returned from the captivity of
Babylon we're then and ever afterwards
called Je,vs, because the tribe of Judah was
the most powerful of all the tribes of Israel,
and indeed almost the only one which was
considerable after the restoration to their
liberty and country. Many of the Israelites
chose to remain at Babylon. Those who
returned to Palestine began the work of the
temple with alncricity and vigor. Its pro-
gress suffered temporary obstruction
through the intrigues of their enemies and
the caprice Of Cyrus immediate Successors.
But in the beginning of the reign of Darius
the decree of Cyrus in favor of the Jews
was ratified, and many new clauses were
added for their efectnal assistance and &c.
curity. A particular charge was given to
the Governors of Syria and Samaria not
only to prevent any further obstruction of
the work, but also to furnish supplies out
of the tribute of those provinces for car
rying it on with greater expedition; and il
was declared that all persons vino should
act contrary to these instructions would be
punished with death.

THEY ACCEPT.
The Democratic Nominees in New York
Take Their Chances.

ALBANY. n. y, October 15.-The letters
of acceptance of the Democratic nominees
for Governor and Northumberland are
made public tonight. Governor Hill. in
his letter, thanks the convention for the
honor conferred, accepts the principles laid
down in the platform, especially in its en-
dorsement of the administration OF Presi-
dent Cleveland, criticises the Republican
platform, and adds: "Our opponents as q
party are opposed to the policy and prin-
ciples OF President Cleveland, and their
success at the ensuing election would surely
be proclaimed throughout the country as
a condemnation OF his Administration.
The hands OF the President will Dc strength
ened by the victories of his party friends,
not by the success OF the enemies of his
party" He declares himself in favor OF
civil service and municipal reform, the
separation of municipal from State and
National elections, home rule for large
cities by the extension OF their powers in
the regulation OF their internal affairs,
serious consideration OF the demands OF
the working,nen, including arbitration for
the settlement OF their differences with
their employers, a review OF the tax laws,
and the appointment OF non-partisan
boards. He closes with a summary OF the
legislative and other reforms effected since
the Democratic party came into power in
the state, three years ago, which he de-
clares entities it to be continued in charge
OF the states affairs.

HERE'S A STATE OF THINGS.
A Pennsylvania Sheriff Has to Pay Slo''
600 for Jilting q Young Woman.

WILL1AMsPoRT, Pa, October 15.-Mlss
Arabella kentner, aged %, is a brunette OF
vivacious manners and has been considered
the belle of Laporte. Lewis Zaner, the
Sheriff, has resided in the county Tor nifty
seven years. He is 70 years ole. Miss
Kentner has resided in Dushore all her life.
After she began to go into society Lewis
Zaner was very attentive to her, and when
his wife died, in August, 1884, Zansr com
menced to pay her the closest attention,
and finally asked her to marry him, prom
Using to give her 100000, it is alleged. Miss
Kentner accepted the offer.
Zaner went to Miss kentne one evening,
it is said, and told her that he could not
marry her in Dushore, az he was afraid OF
the interference of relatives, but il she
would 20 West he would meet her and they
would be married. He would give her
money to buy wedding clothes and enough
to take her to Detroit, and he WAS to 1ol-
low. Miss Kentner arrived in Detroit, but
failed to get any replyfr from Zaner, although
she wrote to him several times.
She sued MIN therefore for breach OF
promise. On the stand she told a pltiful
story OF being left destitutein a strange city
and said she reached ZONE at last only t"
find that Lewis Zaner had married another
girl. Miss kentner sued Zaner for $2O,Ooo
damages. Zaner tried to prove that Miss
Kentner WAS not of good character, but
hosts of witnesses testified to the contrary.
The jury returned a verdict in Miss Kent
ner's favor, awarding her $4,000.

EFFORTS have been made as yet by the par
ents or friends OF the girl to save her from
the very questionable calling upon which
she has entered, and it seems that the young
Miss Is to have her own way in every par
~ticular.
A MINER reporter last night had this
young girl pointed out to him in one OF the
leading saloons in the town. She is rather
good looking, but has a hayward, bold
look on her face that bodies no good, while
already there are traces of dissipation on
her young face.
The above story is true in every p~articu-
lar, and hould be a warning to the parents
OF children in the city to throw around
their offspring every safeguard that is pos
sible, SO that they may be protected and
kept from the many temptations that are
always thrown in the way of young people
In mining camps.
The names of the parties connected with
the above story are withheld for the sake
of the feelings of the family and friends OF
the young girl. Enough, however, has been
said to show that somebody is at fault in
leading this young girl astray, and to point
out to those of our citizens who delight in
performing acts OF kindness and deeds OF
love, a way to add stars to their crown OF
rejoicing.
