Mrs. Mayberry was shot twice, but regsined consciousDess and attempted to slip past Nelson and get down stairs. She took her daughter and got down as far as the door yard, when Nelson fired at her the third time, the ball wounding Nellie and piercing Mrs. Mayberry's heart.

Cannon's Talk In Court.

OALI 14hhE OAAAg @Aeg AC- AN1 Angus Cannon, the President of this Stake, was called up for sentence Satur- day. He said he was conscious ot having violated no law. He said be had obeyed Ire Edmunds law as he understood 1t; that is. while living in the same house with his wives, he had sexual intercourse with but one. He loved his children and was RIstified to hear the Court say that the law had made all his children equal heirs. He inferred from thIs that, ID case he died intestate, his children would be equal heirs before the law; and, he thought, n view of this fact, that it was unjust to hold a man to be criminal for eating with them and their mothers at the table. His record was before the country. and his heart and conscience were visible to God, who created him. The record of hIs life in contact with this people (here he turned and waved his hand to the crovd) bore him up to receive such sentence as the Court should impose. He felt pleased also that the Court bad stated his conduct towards his re- spective wives, since the passage of the Edmund's bill should be taken into coL- sideration when sentence was being passed, and he asked as be had been de- barred from giving evidence of his in- tentiOn to maintain the laws of the country and the honor of its institutions. Your Honor will probably consider these things; hence, I now submit and bow to the decrees of the Court. aud trust ing to be able to bear upu der any sen tence which you may infiict in such manner as will give evidence 10 my children that l have not lost my man. hood.

HAWAIIAN OoLoxIzArioN

The question of colonization in the
Hawaiian Islands has, during the last
few months, virtually absorbed all
smaller issues touching our material
welfare, and at present is justly made
the leading topic Of public thought and
newspaper discussion. While colonial
ton has long been talked of, it has
never before been put into practical
working shape by practical responsible
men, in whom the people at home
have entire confidence. The status
and practicability Of the present colo
nization scheme, backed as it is by our
largest capitalists and business men gen
orally, will be guarantee Of the good
faith Of the promoters and the practical
utility of the scheme, which will
attract and retain the support of both
home and foreign capital. The present
colonization scheme is too large an in
vestment to be entirely handled by
home capital. tits not only too large for
our present populati n, but it, is large
enough to satisfy the standard idea Of
both American and English capitalists.
The frs question that is asked by
capital, vnen snch scheme as the
present is proposed, is, Twill it paya"
