PALSIED
Arraignment of an Old Man at 90 at
Salt Lake.

SALT LAKE, Utah, February 20.-A
case In court hers to-day represents the
utterly inefficient way in which polygamy
prosecutions have been conducted here
until within a few months. Thomas
Henegar, of Ogden, was indicted in 1879
when that place was part of this
district. He has never been arraigned
till to. day. When he was called the
prosecution was dumfounded to see come
forward a nan getting on toward 80 years
of age, but almost doubled over a staff,
shaking with palsy, and afflicted with
facial contortions which were at once
laughable and pitiable to see. His face
was shaved a la sailor Jack, n short,
heavy, white beard running from n BAL
to the other around under
the jaw. His gray hair was kept
In place by q violet blue silk
handkerchief passed in a over his fore
head and tied at the back. While being
arrsigned he was required to stand up.
Supporting himself by both hands resting
upon the table, he bowed forward toward
the clerk and the judge and listened to

contoriions never abated. First, out
shot his tongue, gyrated afew times, then
rested a moment on his chin and disap'
peared into his mouth, followed, as In
hot pursuit, by a portion of his upper
lip. With the exhslation of his breath
the under lip shot out, giving to his face
an expression of supreme disgust at the
proceedings going on. Then the mouth
opened wide, displaying a shattered set
of false upper teeth, which were instantly
hid by the lips going together with a bang
and surging violently up against hi
dropping nose like breakers against a cliff
His eyes added rhythm to this poetry O.
contortion, which had its sunny lines In
the instantly forming and fading
Punch-llke smile, to be followed
again by the gloom of opening
cayerns. Every obaerver was convulsed
with the laughter, but as the last words
in the indictment fell from the clerk
lips and the old man took his seat tht
mirth was supplem snted bypity. District
him before, after the preliminary pro
ceedings said:
eff your honor please, 1t is ev!den
from the advanced age of the defendant,
Henegar, and his extremely decrepit
condition, that, the ends of justice
could not, and would not, be promoted
by subjecliug him to trial and punish
ment for p~olygamy, and l therefore asl
that the Gaze against him be dismissed
and his sursties discharged"
"Let the order be entered according
ly," said Judge Zane, and the old man.
counsel whispered in his ear what had
happened. The old man s.raightensd up,
as though a load had been lifted from hi.
shoulders, and. after a further brief con.
sultation with his attorney, left the court

hcans and Democrats is that the chances
are IN favor OF the Republicans in the New
DIX election. AS to Virginia the general
impression is that it will be Democratic, in
spite OF the great efforts just now being
made in that state by the Republicans. In
dlcatlons are that good many clerks will
go home to vote next week. Already ad-
vertisements are appearing in the papers
urging Democratic voters in this CITY to
meet at the headquarters of the state Dem
ocratic associations and arrange to get re-
duced fare to go home and vote. 1t was
supposed that after this administration en-
tered upon its career this custom would
cease. indeed all the Republican state asso-
Citations diSbanded last winter, sold out their
furniture and closed up their halls. 1t was
thought to be bad policy to keep up these
organizations longer. To the surprise, how
ever. and disgust of those who SO dis
banded. the new Democratic employees have
followed the custom inaugurated by the
Republicans and have organized Demo-
cratic state associations. openly advertised
their meetings and urge their members to
meet with them and prepare to go home
and vote. The announcement that Presi-
dent Cleveland has both contributed to the
campaign fund of New York and is pre-
pairing to go home and vote has emboldened
the average government employe, and it
looks now as though good many Repub-
llcans and Democrats would be found leav-
ing for home about tomorrow evening in
order to cast their ballots on Tuesday.

Mexico working Bismarck.

New YORK, Oct. 29.-President Diaz of
Mexico, acting upon the assumption that
the reciprocity treaty with the United States
will not be ratified, is negotiating with
Germany for loan to help Mexico out of
her financial difficulties. His hope was the
treaty would lead to such large American
interests in Mexico that it would not be
difficult for him to place loan in the
United States. Germans here, who
ought to be well-informed on the
subject. express the opinion that Bis
marck will grant Mexico's request,
if she will grant to Germany certain coloni-
zation privileges. and that the Mexican gov
ernment is disposed to accede to this de-
mand. If Mexico shall make concessions
to Bismarck, the United States will be
greatly interested to know the nature of
these concessions, or whether or not the
treaty which may be entered into would be
i'll violation Of the Monroe doctrine Unless
some of the diplomats are very much mis-
taken the United States will soon have an
opportunity to decide that question.
