WORK OF THE SYNOD.
An Adjournment in Honor of Gen. Grant
Opposed to Beecher's Views.

At the session of the Evangelical Lutheran
Synod, yesterday morning Rev. II. Sauer, of
Fl. Wayne opened up the services with the
Ninetieth Psalm, after which he reviewed
the life work and characteristics of General
Grant. He said no simpler or greater man
history His life was pure, clean and whole
some, worthy of the ilustrious praise that he is
now receiving from the world. To say that he
saved the Union is great thing, but to say that
his character was such as to inspire his country
men to live better and nobler lives is the best
tribute that can be paid to his memory Invinci-
bic as soldier, stanch and honest as a
statesman, yet considerations in his daily life
these are the qualities that have endeared him to
the people, and which assure that his memory
can never be obliterated. After the speaker had
concluded his address, it was decided to adjourn
until Monday at noon, out of respect to the
memory Of Grant The religious discussion how
ever, was continued, and the synod gave it
as an expression of their belief that the devil
and his angels were condemned to eternal
aamnation, in opposition to the views recently
expressed by Beecher.

Of the synod, is noted parsonage in the church.

ARREST OF PHYSICIANS.
Action Against Them for Failing to Procure
Licenses to Practice.

The first of the week County Clerk McLain
contemplated taking legal proceedings against
physicians who had not procured licenses to prac-
tce under the law passed by the last Legislature.
He was uncertain as to the length of grace
that should be allowed the doctors, who were
slow in acting as legally required. The law has
been in force thirty days, and out of nearly
three hundred doctors in the city, but one-half
of them, up to yesterday, have applied for IL
censes. No time within which they are to fulfill
this requirement was specified in the act, and
the question with the clerk has been what num-
Der Of days after the law went into force consti-
tuted reasonable time. Upon this point it is
likely the clerk and the doctors will have warm
against fifty eight of them in Squire
Pease's court because they neglected to
procure licenses within a reasonable time. War
rants were issued yesterday, on the affidavit of
John A. Mckinney, for j. L.. Waters William

Only few of them were served during the
day, among them being those for the arrest of
Drs. John Chambers Rola Bula, and Edwin j.
Brennan, who paid their fines and costs in full
Dr.. Chambers at first thought he would stand
trial and take all appeal, but, upon reflection,
concluded to settle. Other physicians made
partial payments, while there were some who
asked for continuance until tomorrow, which
was granted Esquire Pease fixed the lowest
fine under the law-$l0, and this he will do in
every case, as he does not think the circum-
stances of the doctors neglect of an aggravated
character.
The proceedings have caused great Indignation
among physicians, many of those who have
already procured licenses denouncing the action
as one not warranted at this early day of the
laws existence. 1t is stated that the
clerk had no intention to enforce the
law at this time, but he told a reporter
of the Journal some days ago that he would do
SO after a reasonable time had expired. Yester-
day licenses were granted to Frank c. Ferguson.

There is an air of romance, says the Boston Transcript, about the Christian name of ths young widow who has undertaken to avenge on O'Donovan Rossa the deeds of the London dynamiters. The name Yseult recalls the story of guilty passion which gave to Richard Wagner theme for his music drama, Tristan ana Isolde, Yseult being but another spelling of the heroine's name, and the one that is adopted by the French: Ysolde and Ysonde are two other fashions in photography followed by various reciters of the romancej and possibly there afe a dozen other ways of spelling the name of the Irish Princess.

Dr. W. R.

He replied 'No sir. We are Western men, born and bred in Utah Territory, or else have lived there most of our lives, and we will not be driven away from our homes and our lands. It is probable some few families may emigrate to Mexico, for Utah is getting over-populated and is stopping over, but the Territory is our homes. We redeemed 1t from a wilderness and have grown with it, and we are not towards enough to abandon it."
