Poisonous Elements of stale Medicines
Recent microscopic investigation has
shown that saline and acid solutions,
tinctures, extracts, inlusions and decoc-
tons are fertile soil for the growth of u
variety of plants. Probably nearly every
thing in the way of liquid preparations
standing in their wrappers on the drug
gists' shelves, and the tinctures, extracts,
etc, that are not fresh, will show vegc-
tations under a moderately strong glass.
These plants flourish at the expense of
any medicinal virtue that the mixture
may be supposed to contain, and in them
selves are tonic or poisonous elements,
producing in many cases serious distur-
Dances of the mucous membrane and
often changing the diseases for which
they are swallowed into something worse.

MEXICO, ANCIENT AND MODERN.


rrr-cott's story II Fairy Taie-Whtt Cor
ten DId-Modern Mesico's Resources.
In n recent number of The Popular
Science Monthly Mr.. David A. Well
knocks the romance pretty much out Of
Mexico, ancient and modern. lie init
mates that PrescUtt's story of the con-
quest of that country is largely Il fairy
tale and that the rude Cortez with his
Spaniards did not destroy a splendid civ
ilization at all. In order to magnify his
triumphs Cortez and his fellow Spaniards
portrayed these people in royal robes
set them up in palaces and adorned
them with something of this nobility and
grace of the Spanish hidalgos. But their
tools and their weapons tell the story.
These were all of stone. The Aztecs
belong to the stone age, and their instru-
ments are inferior to those used by the
savages of Nancouver's island and the
Fcejecs.
Having no domestic animals or beasts
of burden, or roads or any meal OF
transportation except mems backs, IL
would have been an impossibility to sus-
tain a population Of $780, 900 people IN the
City of Mexico with food or water, the
water near the city being. then as now
salt and undrinkable. And it is now
conceded that the population of all the
Aztec tribes did not exceed 250, 900.

RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CHECK.
Judge foreman Rules That the
Deseret Bank Will Repay
Forged Paper.

A decision was rendered late yesterday
afternoon by Judge Foreman in the case
of A, c.. Brixen VS.. The Deseret National
Bank, by which the bank is held liable
for the forgery of G. j. Smith, the real
estate absconder, or rather the amount
involved in the forgery. 1t will be re-
membered that Smith forged the sigma
ture of Mr.. w. A. Dunbar TO n mortgage,
upon which he secured from A. G. Brixen
n loan of $500. Brixen made his check
out payable to w. A. Dunbar for the
amount less the interest for six months,
and Smith cashed il at Walker Bros. >
bank by forging again the signature
of Dunbar on the endorsement. The
check in due time was presented at the
Deseret National Bank, paid and charged
mn to Mr.. Brixen and there the matter
rested for nearly year, when the gentle
men, learning OF the forgery returned the
check to the bank and demanded that
the amount be placed back to his credit.
This the bank refused to do, and the
present law suit was the result.
Judge Foreman, in his ruling, holds
that the bank and not the individual is
responsible for the matter of whom a
check is paid to, it being the duty. of the
bank to see that the check is paid to the
identical party named in the order, or to
such person. as is properly identified as
having received the endorsement, and
the endorsement must also be established
as authoritative and genuine.

L. ID. Watson, prominent polygamist
OF Parowan, was arrested, it will be re-
membered, some months ago on Il
charge OF unlawful cohabitation, and was
permitted, through the negligence OF an
officer, to escape. He boosted at the
time, and on several occasions since, that
every effort to capture him would result
in an ignominious failure, and has very
ingeniously avoided the officers till within
the past few days, when Deputy Glea-
son got on the gentleman's trail and sue.
ceeded in poking him out OF his hole on
Sunday morning. The capture is consid-
cred very important one, and the sue
cessful deputy in his letter to Marshal
Ireland, reciting the affair, INDUCES in u
little genuine and justifiable gloating.
The letter is dated Beaver, the 2lst ult.,
and contains the following amusing de-
scription OF the circumstances OF the
capture:
~ found Watson this morning at his
house, slowed comfortably under two
nice-looking women and three children.
He was lying under the mattress when l
overhauled him. 1t certainly was a

SaIyini in WThe Gladintor.v

OF this great artist in his famous char
acterof Niger, one of Herculean strength,
colossal rage and natural savagery, the
Chicago Times OF January 18th says /:
One cannot feel quite the same interest
in what is called polyglot acting as ii the
parts were all given in English, but there
is no other actor on the stage who can
come SO near to making his auditors UNI
derstand an unknown tongue rs Salvini,
and one watches all his representations
with an absorbed and ever-increasing in
terest, though all the time mentally say
ing: "lf he could speak English" There
is, TO begin with, Il striking and imposing
personality about the man, the bounty OF
nature, scarcely less noticeable off than
on the stage, and when to this is added
the rare gift OF utterly losing-in appear
ance-his own consciousness in his as
sumptions, and the most superb finish in
every detail OF art, what can one add to
the force OF merely saying these words :?
The personality meant is not merely that
of face and figure. II is in gait, in man
ner, and prominently any one
feature is at all pre-eminent in
the voice. The latter is wonderfully
rich and musical, and SO perfectly under
the actors control that every shade of
feeling or OF meaning is unerringly reflect
ed in its varying tone. The grim disgust
at finding he was to be merely an execu-
toner instead OF a lion-slayer, the flash
of surprise when he recognized the girl
he once saved from the malice of the
empress, and the terrible mingling of
grief and rage and establishment upon
discovering in her his long-sought daugh-
ter, all this and more were delineated
with fullness and finish that left moth
ing more to be asked for, and with II
vivid power that must have sent thrill
tingllng up the spine OF the most blase
playgoer. But the play has been seen at
his hands before, and time has had no
effect unless to still further ripen the
actors powers, and what more might be
said-other than to add that the conspic-
nous feature Of his acting is its utter for
getfulness OF self and its almost fierce in
tensity-would be but repetition OF oft
repeated praise. The company support
ing him is reasonably strong.

Border Drama at the Theatre.

w. +. Cody buffalo BilD, supported
by Il dramatic company, band of saw
ages and a trick donkey, will give two
performances at the Salt Lake Theatre
next Saturday afternoon and evening.
To the small boy and many of larger
growth, his performance is us fascinating
as dime novel-indeed, more so, for it
brings the wild western life before them
with greater vividness than their favorite
literary food-and, consequently, he al
ways plays to overwhelmingly large
houses.
"The Prairie Waif," his new play, is
from the pen OF j. A. Stevens, who wrote
"The Unknown" Itgoes without saying
that it is a strong and enduring piece OF
dramatic workmanship, and is much bet
ter than the average border drama, both
in action and dialogue. His leading lady
is Miss Lydia Denier, who does good
work as the Prairie Wait In the
fourth act the Indians under the control
of Pawnee Billy" the boy chief, indulge
in characteristic dances
