Mayor Hewitt.

There are few public men who ex-
hibit as much genuine manhood as
Mavor Hewitt, of New York. He is
perhaps as far removed from dema-
goguery as any public man in the
county. AS mayor of the city his sit
uation has heen a most trying one.
Local quarrels, strikes, ,bovcotts, trouble
between foreigners of different nation
alities, enforcement of the liquor law
and hundreds of other like annoyances
have constantly demanded his atten-
ton.
He has had every opportunity to
play the demagogue, and but little en-
couragement to pursue straightfor-
ward course. But he has turned neith-
er to the right nor left from the strict
path of duty. He neither courted no.
toriety nor trembled at unjust criti-
cism.
The city of New York may well be
proud of such mayor. Few men in
deed, possess the moral courage of Mr..
Hewitt. He has been tried and found
not wanting. Neither threats nor
praise affect him In the least. He per-
forms his duty and risks the conse-
auences. He is an able, fearless and
patriotic American citizen, who is not
afraid to do what is right in the face of
the strongest opposition. = Jefferson
City Tribune.

How Prince Alexander Manufactured a
Strong Army on Short Notice.
When Prince Alexander arrived in
Philippopolis in September, 1885, ex-
pecting to have the Turks marching in
on him every day, he was very much
disappointed to find that the Eastern
Roumelian army consisted of twelve
weak and totally unsoldierlike COM
panies. Luckily there was sufficient
supply of arms IN store; SO at once he
called out every male inhabitant be-
tween the ages of Is and 40. and soon
had a mob of $4,000 men at his dis
posal. These he divided into ''lots"
of 1000 each, which were numbered
throughout, giving him thirty-five
battalions. Then he took the few
officers Captains at the highest) that
he found at his hand and gave them
regiments and brigades. He next pro-
NOTED all the non-commissioned off,
GERS, giving them command of bat
talions and companies in due order,
and finally he promoted the whole of
the privates of said twelve companies
to be non commissioned officers. dis
tributing them among the entire force!
Perhaps the most original thing he did,
however, was the way he clothed this
army. He first requisitioned by tele-
gram throughout the country all the
cloth he could lay his hands on, both
in shops and private houses. and had
it all stored at Philippopolis, giving
''bondsh for the number of yards taken
from each individual Then he ordered
every tailor in the length and breadth
of Roumelia to be arrested and brought
to Philippopolis! There he had mean
while prepared the house of parlia-
ment for their reception, and
when they arrived they were
locked up in it, together with
all the cloth, were given patterns of
great coats and set to work to make
them. At first they were sulky, and
most of them being foreigners Greeks
and such like-they appealed to their
respective Consuls. who demonstrated
with the Prince He sent the Consuls
politely to the right-about, saving he
would inquire into the matter when
times were more propitious. Mean
while the refractory knights of the
needle made pretense at work, but
turned out such very bad garments
that they were told that their food
would be stopped unless they improved.
(Ihe house was guarded and the
kitchen established inside). For two
days they starved. Then they gave in
and set to work properly. On COM
planning of want of air and exercise
they were taken for walk through

Col. j. G.. Prather.

Col. J. g. Prather has again been
elected member of the Democratic
National committee. This honor could
not have been conferred on more
worthy man. For years Col. Prather
has been one of the most foremost
Democrats in the State. He possesses
none of the Objectionable features of a
boss and never has any selfish ends to
serve.
There is not more popular Demo-
crat in the west than Col. Prather.
His friends are not confined to any one
section, but scattered wherever he is
known. Industrious. faithinl and
shrewd at all times, his counsel is al
WAYS. respected and found valuable.
He works exclusively for the benefit OF
the party, and is not controlled by any
select crowds.
Col. Prather is an old-time Democrat,
but he has not neglected to store his
mind with useful information regard
ing modern politics. He is man of
the people in every respect. A little
brief power did not spoil him years
ago, and as be has been advanced from
time to time by bis party. the same
commendabe feature is noticeable.
1t is well for the Democrats of Mis-
souri, that they have again expressed
their confidence in Col. Prather, He
has never deceived his party and it is
proper that such sterling worth should
be rewarded.-Jeferson City Tribune.

IRONTON. MO-. THURSDAY. JUNE IA, 1888. NJ
st. Louis Correspondence.

Ed. Register-Since returning from
tie far West I thought how little /
knew about the vastness of our country
or the boundlessness of her varied re-
sources. A railroad journey of nearly
1000 miles gave your correspondent a
view he never had before. Broad acres
of rich soil inviting the plowman. vast
plains of grass where thousands of
rounded beeves thrive and ere tender
for the palate Of the eater; towering
ranges of mountains where millions of
fine wooled sheep can Craze amid the
rocky sides, underneath which there is
stored away untold millions of the
precious metals for the future genera
also, where rich products Of orchard
and garden would astonish even the
Inhabitants of Italy or the vine covere d
plains of France. Your correspondent
never even dreamed of such fruitage
as he saw there on vines and trees.
He who thinks our country is deyel-
oped or has exhausted her resources
comes far short of comprehending the
facts as they exist. But this descrip-
ton is simply of the material part of
our country. There are moral plains,
Intellectual pasture lands and tower
ing mountains of high and lofty religi-
Gus culture of which these natural ones
are only foothills.
The gospel proposes to develop both
of these departments. "Godliness is
profitable unto all things having the
promise of the life that now is and of
that which is to come"
The country is being rapidly devel-
oped in material methods, and will
soon be as the garden of the continent.
Your correspondent was glad to see
churches, numerous and tasty. A
good normal school is running at
Tempe. A university is projected at
Phoenix by the NJ. E. Church. The
Presby terian Church is building an
Indian school at Tucson and state
university is also being built there.
Many of the people are church men,
and all more or less interested in edu-
cational matters.
There are several Indian reservations
in the Territory, where the poor red
man roams about like u bird in cage.
They are often seen in the villages and
towns strolling along the streets or
buying trinkets for themselves. They
are harmless, as rule, unless they
get liquor. The men often dress in
true mems attire. Your correspondent
only saw one in partial nude or ma
tive Indian dress. The women dress
loosely, in bright colors, wear bangs,
and are accustomed to wear a shawl
or loose cloth thrown over their heads.
Many of the Indians will work for day
wages, but are not accustomed to lay
by in store so as to have ompetency.
The poor red man must 60 as goes the
buffalo and wild deer, though more
slowly.
A grand field for home missionary
work! Much of it is being done, but
much more should be done, and al
once. The M. E. Church is on the
ground full of hope and gospel zeal in
the establishment of churches and
seeking to save the souls of men.

Nevada Salt Formations.

The abundance of the salt formations
in Nevada is illustrated by the fact that
in Lincoln County there is deposit OF
pure rock salt which is exposed for q
length of two miles, width of half 8
mile, and is of unknown depth; in
places canyons are cut through to o
depth of sixty feet, and not Only has
the deposit been traced on the surface
for distance Of nine miles, but it ID
SO solid in places as to require blasting
like rock, and SO pure and transparent

of it some inches thick. In Churchill
County there is said to be deposit OF
rock salt some fourteen feet in depth.
free from any particle of foreign sub
stance, and which can be. quarried al
the rate of five tons day to the man.
What is known as the great Humboldt
salt field is estimated to be some fifteen
miles long by six wide. According
to the description, when the summer
heats have evaporated the surface wa
ter, salt to the depth of several inches
may be scraped up. and underneath
there is a stratum of rock salt Of the
purest description and of depth un-
known.-N. Y Sun.

CLARKsBURa, W. VA, June %, 1888 -
Music Hall was crowded to OVERLOOKING on
last Monday evening, it being the evening
that the s'Clarksburg Concert Company"
had arranged for one of their popular and
highly enjoyable Musical Socisls," in
which home talent participates. The pro-
gramme for the evening consisted Of choice
instrumental and vocal music. Miss Dora
Osborne showed good execution in the
performance of weber's Perpetual Mo-
ton, (RondO) and ELECTED rounds OF APP
plauss. Mr.. w. s. Price sang The Mill
in the Valley" which called forth an en-
core. He possesses robust BARITONE and
shows a voice OF remarkable volume
The feature of his singing is his clear enun-
citation, which enables everyone to catch
every word and comprehend the sentiment
of the piece that is being rendered. His
close resemblance to Del Puente, the world
removed baritone, in personal appearance,
IS very striking, and his rendition OF
,ong, both in point Of volume and enun-
citation, are similar.
Mrs. Grace Finnell Lee, who was to have
sung Again My Gentle Lutte" compo-
sition by Gounod, was prevented from do
ing so on account of the indispcsition OF
her accompanied. This was quite disap'
continent to the audience as she Is
quite fsvorite, possessing pure
Italian coptralto her tones are very strong,
and are well sustained. However, she
took part in a duet with Mrs. ID. w.
Boughner, entitled Waterfall" and
subsequently, in three quartettes with
Messrs, W. S. Price, Hoffman, Sommers
and A. K. Thorn. Mrs. Lee'e voice
shows culture, as che has been for the past
year under the tutorship OF Prot. Oien-
hall, of Baltimore, who says she possesses
voice which is pure cOntralto, and one
of remarkable compass,
Mrs. d. W. BOughner sang Flotow's
"Last Rose of Summer" by special re-
quest. Her soprano voice is one full OF
sympathy and tenderness, and her rendi-
ton of a piece is always appreciated to
such an extent that an encore is the re-
suit. The quartetts cot in the Silly
Night" Come and Join the Merry
Dance" and q Soldiers Farewell" rem
dered by ISrs. Lee and Messrs. Price,
Sommers and Thorn were highly appre-
ciated.
The "soeiale " was in every way sue
cess, and our musiC-loVing people are living
IN pleasant anticipation of the next one,
which will be given some time during
October.

Now this is genuine human nature,

quick forgiveness Of wronged wife when

fate. This is merely leaf from every

so-cslled realistic writers have missed
