The large amount of funds reported in

the report as the new Treasurer makes
it, that "the net available funds over de-
mand liabilities is $16,4l8,092," will, it

Acorn Bread.

The Indians scattered along the foot

people. They do not appear to be COVER

many OF their old traditions. One or
two men OF superior ability and indus
try from n nucleus around which others
less ambitious gather. Hence they fence

their requirements Of hay making, pas
turage, etc. Although they often in
dulgs in the food Of the civilized nations
the acorn is still favOrite article Of
diet In every we'll regulated wigwam.
The process OF converting this bitter nut

in the usual manner a large mass OF
acorn meats. A number of circular watts

in the shape of puRch bowl. Into these

several large clothes baskets filled with
water. and these they dropped hot stones
thus heating the water TO the required
temDeratuTs.
Upon this mAss of crushed bitterness
they carefully ladlsd tho hot water, 10 ak

skillfully removed any speck that float

firm white substance, Of which they

The recent decision Of the UAited
States Supreme Court affirming the COR
stitutionality Of the Edmuads Anti-pO-
lygamy law will give timely impetus
to the movement which is said to be I'M
der. consideration by the Mormons to
discard polygamy from their practice if
not from their faith. They have here
tofore treated polygamy as the corner
stone of their religion, but they are cyl
IDENTIFY beginning to think that it may
be better for them to cut out their cor
ner stone themselves and save tho rest
of the structure rather than have it all
pulled down together in the effort to de-
strOy polygamy from the outside. That
the Edmunds law is proving efficacious
and accomplishing the original purpose
of its author Is proved by its effects. A
number of Mormons have been convicted
and sentenced under it; others have fled
the jurisdiction, In order to avoid sim.
liar fate; the polygamists are sensible of
the disadvantages of the disenfranchise-
ment which this practice entails, and
are uncomfortable under the constant
apprehension of prosecution. Their ap-
peal to the Supreme Court to oyerturn
the law has failed, 50 that now it begins
to look as IL Mormon polygamy must 60.

GOVERNOR ALGER has appointed next
Saturday, April 18th, rs ArbOr day and
requests its general observance through
out the state by the planting Of trees.
The people of the southern portion OF
the state may DO able to observe it in the
manner desired, bat ia this section the
indications are that the citizens will
not feel disposed to plant trees ia snow
drifts and hence will defer planting un
til later in the season. The Object is
good one and whsther planted on Arber
day or some other day we would like
TO sss the streets bsautifisd by the plant
ing of shade trees. An exchange says:
"A custom similar to that of the Amer
lean ArbOr day prevails in India, where
it is deemed an act of great religious
merit either to plant tree or dig well.
In fact many rich HindoOs haYe, in the
expectation Of making short cut to
paradise, spent large sums of money ia
planting trees and making wells to pro-
vide both refreshment and shade te
the weary travellers and pilgrims"

tic coast. In addition 1t controls the
steamship line between New Orleans
and New York. For the first time in the
history Of the country, an entire line

will DO under one management, and
practically under the ownership Of one
body Of men. The effect Of this c0mbi-
nation upon the interests of some other
corporations may in the end prove very
important.
