a literary Cau? D'Efat-

OF all the surprises with which the
reading public has beeen treated by
Mr.. Alden's surprising Literary Rey-
olution perhaps the most remarkable
Is the last.
Two of the choisest and most famous
books in modern literature, Washing
ton Irving's "The Sketch Book" and
"Knickerbockers History of New
York." are just published in style
worthy Of this most celebrated and UNI
versally esteemed of American authors.
The two books together form one of
the nine volumes of his works also
just published. The type is large,
loaded. beautiful; the two volumes
bound in one comprise 606 pages. The
binding is half Morocco, marbled
edges. The only other edition in the
market that compares with this or
rivals it is advertised by the publisher
at $500 per volume.
Mr.. Aldens price when sold in sets
of nine volumes, is little less than
s1;00 per volume. He now offers
this single specimen volume until
September l, 1885, for the price (if it
can be called price, of 90 cents, by
mail, postage paid.
This offer is without restriction or
condition; if there are a hundred
thousand, or half million of those
who take pleasure i'll the words OF
Washington Irving, who want the vol
ume, he says he will fill their orders as
fast as his printers and binders can
turn them out
If you want to complete your set
after you have received this volume,
you can, of eoure do so by paying the
additional price for the set. The OBJ
ject of this extraordinary Coup
D'Etat" is of course, advertising; ex-
cept for this consideration the price
would be ridiculous and ruinous. Mr..
Alden sends his complete Condensed
Catalogue of standard books free to
any applicant, or his Illustrated Gaia
logue, 1872 pages, for four cents.

Opening of :he Wouse of Rest.

Most of our readers win recall a
former notice in these columns, of
the project conceived by Rev. Mr.,
Starkweather, late pastor in this
city, TO build House of Rest" at
his present home at Meridian, Miss.
The cause was a worthy one, and we
wish such spirit would take hold OF
some philanthropist in every commun-
ity. From the Meridian Daily News
we clip the following regarding Mr.,
Starkweather's structure:
Tha House of Rest was formally
opened last night for the reception OF
visitors and large crowd of our citi-
zens spent a pleasant hour in look
ing at the beautiful structure, the ele-
CANT bed rooms and handsome furni.
ture- Indeed everything calculated
to add to the comfort of its inmates, as
well as the Injuries have been provid-
ed for by the thoughtful originator
Mr.. Starkweather. The tasteful and
really elegant manner in which the
house has been furnished throughout
is also highly creditable, and the uni
yersal decision from everybody was
that it was perfect"
The design of the House OF Rest is
to furnish home and rooms fol
young men who may be taken sick al
! their rooms or at the hotels, and who
can have at the House of Rest all the
comforts and attention that the most
skillful and careful nurses can give
( them. In a word, it is in truth a
home in every sense OF the word.
The house is built by stock COM
/ pany. The Queen and Crescent has
500 and the Mobile and Ohio has
( $500 of the stock. About seventy
shares of $50 each have been issued,
which is payable in monthly install
ments.
When sick persons are able to pay
for their care, it is expected they will
do SO, but if unable, they receive the
same attention as those who do pay.
This beautiful structure stands to-
day as a living monument TO the lib
crafty and charitable benefcence of
its stockholders, and is an ornament
to the city, as well as a credit to HUI
mainly. 1t is an evidence of an adj
vancement in that christian character
istic charity, which is commended
above all things by the great apostle
who so beautifully said that it 'never
faileth," and though "men spoke with
the tongue of angles and had not char
i.y, they were As sounding brass and
tinkling cymbals." The house is
furnished with well selected library,
and young men are cordially INVITED
to spend their evenings there as if at
the home Of friend.

NEARING THE CLOSE.


Two weeks hence, and the gentlemen
OF the Utah Legislature who for six weeks
past have so nobly and successfully
wrestled with the problem of how not to
dol it, will be making preparations to re-
turn to their respective homes. Their
labors will have been completed and-to
them and the Mormon Church be all the
glory thereof They will have fully car
ried out the instructions they received by
underground telephone before the first
days session was commenced, and they
can retire in the consciousness of having
been seryilely obedient to the behests OF
the power which placed them whore they
now are.
Two short weeks hence, and the last
Mormon Legislature that Utah will ever
see, will have passed away and down into
the oblivion which il so richly merits.
But after all, what was 10 he expected of
these men? They came here, it is true,
ostensibly as the representatives Of the
whole people, but in reality they were
and are simply the chosen instruments
OF the Mormon Church leaders, whose will
they must carry out, no matter what

THE OUTRAGE ON MIR. DICKSON

The Church papers are busy just now
trying TO make the public believe that
the dastardly assault committed on Mon
day night on the person of U. S. District
Attorney Dickson was the sole work of
"a hot-headed youth OF sixteen years.
Hugh Cannon-and that he alone should
be held responsible for it, II our memory
serves us, these same Church papers, a
little while back, also tried to make the
public believe that Deputy Marshal Col
lin maliciously corraled "a widely-known
and universally respected young man"
named McMurrin in the Social Hall alley
way, and there "foully murdered" him.
They lied like horse-thieves then; they
are repeating the dose now.
1t is conceded by all who have watched
the course OF Mr.. Dickson while dis
charging his duties here as Prosecuting
Attorney, that he is one of the most able
lawyers that ever appeared in the courts
of Utah. That being SO, and having had
striking ocular demonstration OF the cir
cumstances attending the carrying out OF
the brutal work, is it probable that he has
so lost the head which those wretches were
so anxious to enlarge--or to completely
knock off his shoulders, it makes no
difference which-that he recklessly
charges this man and that man with
having entered into a conspiracy to mur-
der him? Hardly. Mr.. Dickson, we
opine, has n pretty clear idea of the ma
ture and amount of evidence needed to
fasten upon the guilty parties the crime
with which he charges them, and in
view OF the fact that he does allege n
conspiracy to murder him, we are inclined
to believe that he knows better what he
is talking about than do the charactcrless
scribes OF the Church press, even suppos-
ing them to be honest and truthful in
what they say.
The matter will shortly receive the at
tention Of the courts, and in the mean
time the Church papers will doubtless
follow in the path marked out by the
illustrious Ananias, regardless OF what
facts may be patent to everybody who
cares to look them in the face.
