There will be Great Rejoicing on That
 LOnged for Day.

The Two Republics, published at the City of Mexico, and the leading and most influential paper in Mex ico, has the following to say in re- gard to the followers of Brigham Young: "The tread of the Nor mons is still heard in the land. From up Sonora way comes the news that Brigham Young, jr., re- gently arrived at Hermosillo from this city. He is reported to have secured valuable land concession from the federal government. and it is said that colonization will imme- diately commence. This can only signify that the Mormons from Utah are to be the colonists. Can the government fully realize what this means? It means that the whole Utah colony, which has been such disgrace to American civili- zation, will be transferred to Mexi- can soil. The people of the United States will rejoice over the rid dance. But what they lose Mexico acquires. In this case Mexico is not to be congratulated. Coloniza- ton is what this country most UT gently needs, and what we have constantly urged. But we draw the line on Mormonism. It is ear nestly hoped that the government will keep an eye on this rumored colonization project of Brigham Young"

The Devil Won't Have Them.

By an Unknown Author (B.C. 7,009).
 An editor died and slowly wend
 ed his way down to where he sup posed a warm reception awaited him. The devil met him and said "For many years thou hast borne the blame of the bad spelling that the printer had gotton off in the paper; the paper has gone out for $2; alas the $2 often failed to come in. Thy printer has often be- deviled thee for wages Saturday night when thou hadst not darned farthing to thy name. Men have taken the paper without paying for it and cursed thee for not getting up better one. Thou hast been called dead beat by the freight conductor when thou hast shown thy annual pass to their enyious gaze. All these things thou hast borne in silence. Thou canst not come in here" And he fired him. As he did so he mured to himself "Heaven is his home, and besides, if we had let him once in here he would have been dunning delin- quent subscribers, and thereby ere ating discord in my kingdom"

Arizona Taking the Lead.
Santa Fe New Mexican.

Santa Fe New Mexican.
 New Mexico should not allow her neighbors to outstrip her in the race. Already Arizona has taken the water bull by the horns and is in the lead, but New Mexico may catch up if honest effort is made. See this from the Tucson Citizen |: "The various canal enterprises on the Salt river and the Gila are des- tined to bring many thousands of acres of rich agricultural land un- der cultivation, and many flourish ing towns will spring up at conven- tent points, Arizona will yet be- come famous for her wonderful fruit productions, which will sup ply the markets fully month ahead of any other section of coun- try. The people are just beginning to realize that the permanet wealth of Arizona is in its agricultural re sources, after all"

Particulars ofa Fatal Acciden


SACRAMENTO, Sept. "a Rec
ord Union special gives the partic-
ulars of the accidental shooting of
George L. Croker at Horse Shoe
Bar. George is the son Of L.
Croker, formerly a merchant at
Rocklin, and thirteen years old.
He went rabbit hunting last Friday.
Not returning, his parents became
alarmed, and search was made by
the ncighbors till Monday morning,
when they found the body three
fourths of mile away from home,
the top Of his head blown entirely
off. The discharge of the gun EVIL
IDENTIFY set the clothes on fire, for
the clothing was entirely burned
off and the body crisped badly.
The burning of the clothes under
the belt was probably continued
the longest, for the body was so
badly burned there that the 'intes-
tines protrnded. The funeral took
place 1t Rocklin yesterday. ise

Another active volcano has been
reported in Fresno county. When
it is remembered that lava flow
over four miles long took place
from one of the craters near Las
SEES butte as late as 1850. the story
seems not at all improbable. The
trees along this flow were burned,
and many of the charred trunks are
still standing. The fumaroles and
mud volcanoes Of "Bumpus' He'll
at the butte show that the volcanic
fires are not far off. Even Shasta
has hot springs over 1900 feet
above the sea, and its eruptions are
said to be recent.

THE IRISH SITUATION.

The political situation in IRELAND
is watched with keener interest BY
the civilized world than ever before
No doubt this arises from the fac,
that the Irish are fighting for theil
right in way and manner far re-
moved from all previous agitations
The bloody deeds of semi-barbar.
ism have given way to appeals to
the enlightened thoughts and ad.
yanced views of the nineteenth
century. In this they are gaining
recognition and warming them
selves into the sympathy of all
lovers of justice and right. This
is being felt even in England and
unless some person or persons in
the name Of Ireland, but whose
fendish acts disprove any love for
that down-trodden country, commit
= high. handed act by which prop
erty is destroyed or lives lost, the
ehspgipg feeling in England will
continue to grow until the Irish
will obtain those rights that will
T;.ace them on the high road to
prosperity. a'
Tho Oakland Times says: "1n
this connection it may not be out
of place to state that the recent
creation Of new British cabinet
Office, that OF secretary Of State for
Scotland, is a move to establish a
precedence for applying the same
scheme to the government of Ire
land. This view is supported by
the fact that Scotland made no de-
mand for this innovation there
vas no popular agitation for it.
The British parliament allows the
Scotch members, as an informal
but authoritiye committee, to
mould all legislation relating to
Scotland's interests. Hence that
country has no grievance such as
Irishmen have in the refusal to
consult them about legislation af-
fecting their local interests. Natur-
ally, then, the granting of this
honor. or favor perhaps may be
construed as having hidden and
greater significance than the mere
honoring of Scotland with such
consideration.

Surrender OF Mrs. Jarrett .

| LONDON, Sept. 3.-Mrs. Jarrett
was taken in custody this morning
on the charge Of abducting the
Armstrong girl, who was the
Lille" of the Pail Mall Gazette
revelations. Gen. Booth of the
Salvation Army surrendered Mrs.
Jarrett to the authorities, after
having had several conferences
with them during the past few
days. The police finally threatened
to have a warrant issued for Gen.
Booths arrest on the charge Of OBJ
structing the law by concealing
Mrs. Jarrett. This frightened him
and he Immediately produced the
woman. Mrs. Jarrett walked to the
police station with sister Of the
Salvation Army and in accordance
with an agreement made with the
Superintendent of Police, an officer
was in waiting at the door Of the
ststion-house and took her into
custody. Mrs. Jarrett demurely
proceeded to a cell ana was locked
up. Later in the day Mrs. jarrett
was taken to the Bow-street Police
Court, where she was charged with
having indecently assaulted the
Armstrong girl, with administering
noxious drugs to her, with felon-
iously OBTAINING her, and also with
conspiring with Mr.. Stead of the !
Pail idall Gazette, and Others to
commit these offences.
Mr.. Poland, Solicitor for the
Treasury, appeared for the prosecu-
ton. He stated that Mrs. Jarrett
had obtained the girl by pleading
that she required the girl to assist
in doing the housework Of her
home, and that she was a woman
of responsibility. s.e4-
The prisoner was then remanded
until Monday next, bail being re-
fused.
A summons has been granted for
completely in the case against Mr..
Stead, Gen. Booth and others.

The State elections to be held
during the coming Fall seem to
have excited very little interest
throughout the country generally.
It is an off year politically. Elec-
tions are to be held this year in
Connecticut, Iowa, Maryland, Mas
sachusetts, Mississippi, New Jer-
sey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania
and Virginia. All of these events
occur in November, with the ex-
ception of the Ohio election, which
takes place on the second Tuesday
in October. The contests Of most
interest to the country at large are
those in Ohio and New York. As
Ohio comes first on the list the
campaign there will receive more
attention from the public until it
closes, when the contest in New
York will come uppermost. The
latter is likely to derive its chief
interest as test of the popularity
of the Federal Administration.

Queer Mistakes Of BridegrO oms.
Philadelphia Record

Most people the moment they enter
parsonage to get married become so
embaria s.d that they are hardly con
scious of what they are doing. One
fellow l heard of was dreaufully at.
flicted in this way, and without reas
lizing his act pulled out cigar from
his pocket and twirled it around IN his
hands. When that portion of the
ceremony was reached in which the
lady and gentleman join hands he
happened to have the cigar in his
right hand. What to do with the
cigar he evidently didn't knew. The
clergyman paused for a moment and
then repeated the instruction that they
join hands. By this time the poor
fellows embarrassment. had increased
SO that it was painful to behold. He
gave one agoaized look at the minis
ter and then stuck the cigar in his
mouth. Before the ceremony could
be concluded the minister had to take
the cigar from between his lips. An
other prospective groom was in the
same dire condition of mind. He was
making a great effort to regain his
composure by whirling around on his
outstretched finger a silk hat when
the minister announced his readiness
to begin the service The fellow
quickly jumped up. For second he
did not know what to do with his hat,
but only for a second, for he solved
the problemn by sticking the castor
between his knees. The clergyman
told me he could hardly refrain from
laughter as he married that man
standing in that ridiculous position he
was forced to take.

A SmaII-pox "RemedI.r

A correspondent of LIE Canadian
recommends as ar unfailing remedy
for smallpox the application, when
the first symptoms appear, of two
small Spanish fly b1isters to the arm
of the patient between the elbow and
the shoulder. These, he contends,
will draw all the virus of the disease
to that part of the body, and it may
be let out By opening the vesicles from
time to time with pen knife or pair
OF scissors. The blisters should be al
lowed to remain till they fall of and
no more pus runs from the wound,
when it viii dry up on the application
of little lard. and the patient will be
fully recovered In less than a week.
He claims that he has seen this rem
edy used In France and Brazil, and
always with success. At the same
time, he advises every one TO get vac
cinated to reduce the chances Of catch
ing the disease.

INDIAN SUMMER.

She waveth a royal scepter
Der valley and glade and wood,
Her tread is the tread Of monarch,
Her rainment is purple and gold;
The CLINT of the summer sunset
Is meshed in her floating hair.
And a tunic OF mist wreatbed silver
Encircles her bosom fair.
vesture of scarlet splendor
She drops on the naples high.
And clothes the dogwood and sunaac
In fabrics of Eastern dye.
She smiles on the woodland asters
Till they burst into purple bloom,
And waves like a royal banner,
The golden'rod'sy elbow plume.
She reddens the clinging ivy,
And deepens the corn fields gold;
Bursts open the podded milk-weed,
Bids the trumpet blossoms unfold.
She meilows the autumn vintage;
And puppies the clustered vine,
And with lips like damask roses
She tastes Of the ruddy wine.
But the languorous spell Of her beauty
Grows fainter and fainter still,
And the print Of her sandaled footstep
Is passing from vale TO hill;
And the mist-wreath that fioated around her
Enshrouding her bosom fair,
Has faded away with the sunlight.
That glinted her golden hair.
The naples have lost their scarlet,
And the dogwoods their crimson dye,
And the golden-rods yellow banners
All pallid and faded lie.
The glow OF the royal purple
Has fled from the mlst-wreathed dawn,
And the tropical Queen Of the Forest
The Indian Summer is gone.

Silas Glade, a gray-halred man, was
passenger on an Erie railroad west
bound train one evening. He had
three children with him, the eldest 7,
and the youngest years old. The
latter was very troublesome, and the
old mans patient efforts TO care for
and quiet him aroused much sympathy
for him among the passengers. He
vas on his way with the children TO
