Traits Of Brigham FOung's Family.

John W. Young, the Oldest son Of
Brigham Young, has been the principal
agent in Washington working against
the pending legislation to repress Nor
mon practices. He is said to possess
many of the remarkable qualities of his
father, including his wonderful energy
and self reliance. Most of Lis property
interests are in Utah, but he has also a
business office in New York City. 1t is
through him that the correspondence
has been carried on and the money dis
buTsed. His mother was the first of the
seventeen wives of Brigham, and he was
the first of the fifty-two children of
whom the great Mormon apostle was the
sire. All of the children of the differ
ent mothers are said to possess more or
less of the characteristics of the father.
Most Of the girls were pronounced
blondes and fine specimens of physical
and intellectual wOmanhood. The old
man, of course, bad his pick for wives.
and his entire family of mothers and
children were always stars among the
Mormon population. The majority OF
the sons and daughters are still in Utah.
but some of them are N the Pacific
states, and some in England. They are
all in comfortable circumstances. as
their father at his death distributed i'm
partially his immense wealth. One of
the younger sons was sent to West Point,
and is now a first lieutenant of engineers
i'll the United States Army. 1t was
common comment during the lifetime
of Brigham Young that his family was
entirely harmonious. This may have
been because his great fortune allowed
him to provide separate establishment
for each family, and the different fami-
lies were never brought together except
on great public occasions, when of
course, they were upon their good be-
havior. Baltimore Sun.

THE death is announced of another
IrishmaE who achieved distinction in
fighting the battlesIof some other coun-
try where his lot happened to be cast.
1t is that Of Patrick Lynch, Vice Ad-
miral Of the Chil:an Navy. He was
bred to the sea and several years ago
when the war between Chill on the one
side and Peru and Bolivia on the other
broke out, he was given the command
of a small army which he led into Peru,
conquering all before him, entering
Lima, the Capital, and sending the
Peruvian President a prisoner to Chill.
While in command of the army of Occu-
patton he gave Peru the best govern
ment il had known for long time. he
went from Chilli as Minister to Spain in
1884 and died at sea while on his return
to Chilli to take the post of Minister to
Peru. His father, an Irishman, was a
merchant in the city of Santiago where
Patrick was born in 1925, his mother
being Cbilian woman. His career is
another Illustration Of the fact that
wherever an Irishman goes, he or his
sons will attain a front rank. and the
more surely so if there are any military
campaigns to be fought.

BAD spelling sometimes proves TO be
a barrier to a mans political prospects
although it never seriously interfered
with the success in that line Of the late
John Covode, of Westmoreland county.
Of blessed memory, Its latest victim is
one HanlOn, an Internal Revenue Col
lectOr in Indiana, whose nomination
was rejected the other day by the
United States Senate, because when
registering at a hotel in indianapolis
he spelled daughter, "douter." This
was just and humane verdict, and if
the Senate possessed the power it ought
to have sent him to the penitentiary for
at least one year, having first supplied
him with copy of Wordsworth's die
tionary, in the study of which he could
pass away his time.

A narrowing story of a famine and
desOlation is reported by the Irish World
as existing in the west of Ireland. Mr.,
Thomas +. Brady, inspector of fisheries,
writes: Il have just returned from
visiting Arran Island where 1 inspected
a great many cabins. In many of them
the people had not particle of food or
fire. Their condition is most deplor-
able" Michael Davitt the we'll known
Irish leader, gives these impressions of
what he saw: Here lin Innisturkl as
elsewhere lin Achill, Glare Island, and
Innisboffin) the same wTetchedness was
observable in every cabin. Every wo-
man and child met with were shoeless.
Their condition is much worse this year
than lin the general famine) SIX years
ago. Half the population of each Island
are now subsisting on seed potatoes.
When this seed is eaten there will be
nothing to subSist upon but seaweed.
The one thing which struck me most in
Achill was the hungry appearance of the
children. do not believe 1 saw sim
gle child smile or in dulge in any of that
lntantile amusement which delights all
lovers OF children while I was on the
Island. Their faces seemed to wear but
one expression and that was one of half
starvation And these two are cor
roborated by this terrible testimony from
Thomas Kean medical officer of the dis
trlct; THE time is near at hand when
the people Of this island must die of
munger If something be not done to save
tnem, am the medical officer for the
district and also register of births and
deaths and l firmly believe it will be nv
lot TO have to register deaths under the
heading OF Starvation during the com
ing spring and summer months unless
relief comes" In the face Of such an
appeal, the generous heart should melt
and the well-flled pocket book open.
Speed the day when Ireland, granted the
boon Of lfgovernment, shall make
such misery impossible for the future.

THE President on Monday sent to the
Senate four yetOes of private pension
bills. In each case he states that the
applications were rejected by the Pen
sion Bureau, aud that the evidence that
the applicants are entitled to pensions
for disability incurred while IN the ser
vice, is insufficient. This is a healthy
sign that when he comes to deal with
the wholesale pension bills, of Blair,
Logan & Co., Mr. Cleveland will be ex-
acting as TO their justice and merits.
OF all the bills that come before Con-
gress none are so prolific in bringing
demagogues to the front as pension
bills. There are five or six Republican
and one Democratic candidate for Pres
ident In the Senate. and no pension bill,
no matter how extravagsnt OF uncalled
for, has yet failed to receive their un-
qualified support.

We lately made mention Of the fact
that an Illinois soldier in the Mexican
war had presented to the Governor Of
that State, to be placed In the Spring
Held museum, wooden leg which he
alleged had been lost by Santa Anna
when that gentleman was suddenly
compelled to escape in his carriage from
the battlefield Of Cerro Gordo. Mr.. F.
2. AbercrOmbie, of Philadelphia, now
claims that he has in his possession the
genuine Santa Anna wooden leg, which
he says was brought home from Mexico
by General Robert Patterson, of that
city, who participated in the battle re-
ferred TO. Abercrombie pIonounces the
Illinois timber a fraud. But Santa
Anna may have had two legs-most
men have.

Cleveland the following strong endorse
ment President Cleveland seems to
have succeeded remarkably we'll in Sc
lecting appointees to office whom the
Senate could not reasonably reject, and,
in spite Of the Edmunds resolution, it
is stated that the Senate has rejected
only thirteen out of LOO nominations.

ident is no ooubt obliged to the Senate
for having discovered the fact, for he Is
evidently trying to do his duty in the
matter Of securing honest and capable
employees of the government.
