~. d. Howells' Habits Of WORK.

Mr.. Howells was very modest in speak
ing of his work and told me he did not be-
lieve in the word genius. He thought, he
said, that he had natural bent towards
literature and that his success had been
due to hard work. He does not believe
that long terms Of intellectual inactivity
are beneficial, aad says that they are in
furious to the writer. He works right
along the year round, and prefers to take
his rest day by day rather than in a l,lln!'.
In response to questions as to his habits
CT work Mr.. Howells said: II devote my
mornings to writing rise at about :.
breakfast ut $, and then 60 to work eat
the usual American breakfast, and don't
find. that n good hearty meal diSagrees
with my labors. l did think ut one
time when came back from Europe that
world keep up the foreign.
custom Of u light breakfast IF coffee and
rolls. But j dropped it after Il time. II is
not adapted to our climate, and it is not
suited to our habits with the children
going to school 50 early and nothing hut a
lunch at noon. After breakfast sit down
and. begin to write, and work away for
three or four hours until the family lunch
time. ! then drop my work for the day,
and spend the remainder Of the time IN
chatting. walking, driving. OrdOing what

Favorite Snort Of. the Hoosiers.

A fox drive took place in .CharlestOwn
township. Indiana. the other day. This is
rather novel sport, and is gaining consitl-
cradle popularity among the country peo-
pie OF indiana. About $50 took part on
this occasion. The territory chosen was a
level expanse about three miles square.
The IN were stationed in lines at the
four points. Each line was commanded
by agentleman familiar with the sport.
At previously agreed upon time the
various lines commenced moving toward
the center. As they drew closer together,
the lines became more compact, until fin
ally hare could not: have escaped. The
men. in the meantime, kept up Il ceaseless
din with horns, drums. tin pans and belle
to drive the foxes from their holes
Finally the foxes, five in number were
driven out In plain sight in an open field
with not an avenue open for escape. The
lines then closed up until they were about
fifty yards apart Then two men were sent
out to chase the foxes and capture them.
AS soon as a man became tired another
would take his place. and H. was contin-
ued in this manner until the foxes were
worn out, captured and killed. The tro-
phles were put up ut auction and sold to
the highest bidder One of them brought
81. and was purchased by Il farmer \
popularity about these drives is the fac:
that no person is allowed any weapons
not even club. The people from all over
the upper end of the county took part and
greatly enjoyed the sport.

\ Matter Of M Great I'm portauce.

The Hon. Delaware Green arose to make
an inquiry. He wanted to know whether,

1885 NEW DEPARTURE! 1885


Five years experience in Dillon, doing
business under the credit system has con-
WINGED us that this system is wrong in the
DRY, wrong in practice, without pleasure OIL
profit to the seller, and an injustice to th|
large number of consumers, who not ont
pay for what they get themselves, but ar|
obliged to pay an increased price to make u|
for the losses and expense caused througl
bad and uncollectable accounts.
We have therefore concluded to ABANDON
THE CREDIT SYSTEM entirely, and after this
date we will sell goods for CASH ONLY.
Our prices will be reduced in proportion
Jas our expenses and losses are cut off, and

Governor Vests Report.

W AsHINGToN, OF. 20.-Caleb w.
West, governor of Utah, in the anDual
renort, says the number OF children of

90, 53S: expenditure for school PURPOSES
S22s.s44. Ia addition are the mission
schools maintained by the various Chris
tian denominations which he praises very
highly. They number eighty three, with
pos teachers and c. 336 pupils. maintained
at Il cost of $3.50 UOO. The report then
summirized the grazing, agricultural and
mining products of the territory. On
the subject Of polypany the governor
says: The all absorbing question in
this territory, dominating all others. hurt.
fully effecting its prosperity, impeding
Its advancement, disturbing its quiet and
the happiness of its people. is the atti-
tule Of defiance assumed and maintained
by the Mormon people. who numbe-
probably fve-sixths of the whole popular

mon church, and people. pnlygam0us and
homogeneous Moruons make a common
cause To stand together and are
united. They maintain publicly through
Their leaders and teachers ia their houses
oi worship, through their presses. and pri-
Vately In social AMI business circles, that
they are prepared To, an will if required
OF them. sacrifice their personal comfort
their property. suffer indefinite lmlrisun
ment. aud surrender lite itself rather than
yield and promise obedience to law and
forego the privileges they claim. The
government can have and hold but one
position towards this people which is of
easy statement. Its authority must be
Respected, its laws must be obeyed. Dur.
ing the year there We're eighty four CON
victions IN the federal courts for polygamy
and unlawful cohabitatinn. In nearly all
these eases the convicted people have alb
%sulutel, refused To accept their freedum
10y giving their promise to obey the laws
in the future.
In conclusion the governor saws he
knows of no armed ORGANIZATION for the
purpose Of opposing the lawful
authorizes, or of resisting the enforce
nI'nt of the laws, nor does he believe any
such now exists. but he says need may
arise at any time for a prompt use Of a
strong. well disciplined and efficient mill
tary force and civil power. and recon-
mends that a force of United States
troops be kept in garrison III the territory.
The governor urges the passing of the

to stay immigration. deprive of political
privileges those who identity themselves
with this people. 10 all aud abet them IN

Is supposed they came il with the tide.
Whether they were ofisurinss of the

conjecture. At all events the reptiles are

a fact that serpcnts OF enormous size do
inhabit the Vastly deep. Many persons
