THEY ESCAPED THE DANITEs.
The Death OF Mrs. Briggs at Denver
Recalls the Days of Mormon Ter
rorism.
From the Denver News.1


he death Of Mrs. Briggs, which oc-
Cured on Wednesday, is not in itself a
matter of much public comment, but it
brings once more to light the story of
miraculous escape of couple from the
notorious Brigham Young and his Ter
ritory in the days when capture meant
certain death at the hands of the ever
watchfuI and much-dreaded Danites,
who were then in the full zenith of their
power. Then it was that murder was
no crime in the eyes of the jealous apos-
ties of Mormondom, and it needed but o
significant nod from some chosen leader
to send a soul from the narrow confines
of earth. There was no retalintory ven
geance, and the story of the escape of
Mr.. and Mrs. Briggs becomes more ro-
mantle when the facts in regard to the
affair become fully known.
1t was just twenty mine years ago
when the couple made their first appear
ance in Denver. They came in the usual
way in those days-by teams-and their
story at first was hardly credited. Years
before, imbued with the Mormon prin-
ciples, they had gone to Utah and be-
came willing subjects of Brigham Young,
who was at that time in the height Of
his power. Mr.. Briggs became a chosen
disciple and an elder of the Mormon
Church, and bid fair to become a fixture
in the Territory. But he remained true
TO his first wife, and never would con
sent to avail himself of the Mormon
privilege by increasing the number of
his "better halls.
Where the trouble between Briggs
and the Church arose is not exactly
known, although some say that his dis
inclination to be a much-married man
aroused the suspicious of his brother eld-
ers, who seemed to think he was not
doing quite the right thing in not prac-
Using what he preached. Another story
has it that the amorous Brigham Young
was slightly inclined to fall in love with
Mrs Briggs, and as it was a well-known
fact that anything the cold man. wanted
he was sure to have sooner or later,
Briggs concluded to shake Utah and the
Mormons and thus save his wife from
becoming famous and probably having
her hair pulled by the score or more of
other Mrs. Youngs.
Both stories are probable, but which
is the strict truth is not known, Suffice
it that the Briggses arrived in Denver in
the fall of 1858, and Briggs was nick
named "Gov." Briggs, after the Gov
ernor of Massachusetts, 1t was not
long afterwards that Gov Briggs
passed to the home of his fathers and
left the wife he had snatched from Nor
mon hands widow.
Mrs Briggs went into mourning for
the good old man and was much bereav
ed at his demise, especially after the
troubles they had gone through in. the
wild woolly West together. Five years
ago, however, she frightened up, looked
young again, and astopished her friends
by remarrying, at the ripe old age of
ninety years, miner by the name of o.
e. Collyer. who was considerably young
OF than she was.

A Playful Pup Surprised.

The Yellowstone Journal says: Sun
day at about 8 a. m. the entire garrison
at Fort Geogh turned out at the alarm
of the big gun, which is only used in
times of fire. Immediately after the
alarm of the big gun, bang, bang, went
the musket of the sentlies, and all was
confusion, CONSERVATION, and alarm I'M
til the case wasoexplained. The big gun
is always kept in readiness, loaded and
primed, but the lanyard is usually coil
ed up on the breech of the gun. On
this particular morning the wind hap
pened to be blowing pretty hard and
dislodged the lanyard, which was waited
about by tho breeze. A couple of garri-
son dogs were playing in the neighbor-
hood. and in the exuberance of his spirit
one little dog spied the string, seized it
with his teeth, and pulled on it briskly,
discharging the gun. There is one play
full canine at that post not likely to fool
with gun for some time. The explo-
sion caused him to stick his tail between
his legs and fly, yelping at every jump.

The New Year.


We have passed another milestone
on the highway of life. remindingsus
that time in its rapid flight tarries
not to crafty our within or suit our
convenience. That mysterious thing
called life-which is the makeup of
our personality-notes time in its
numerous divisions, thus getting a
sharp idea of its duration,and results.
OF all the time periods, the year
space takes upon itself the most in
terest and suggests the most impor-
tant time of thought and purpose
The passage of a year-the close of
the old and the beginning Of. the new.
These have been themes upon which
sages have philosophical and poets
sung They are freighted with a So
lemnity that all-young, middle aged
and old-may lay to heart and be made
wiser by a thoughtful review thereof.
A week ago we babe farewell to the
old year--doubtless with mingled
feelings of joy and sorrow-for our
experience has been with both during
its passage. We have welcomed the
new year with gladness. For why
should we not greet il as a friend?
There it is untried yet, full of hope
and cheer! For have not its prede-
cessors been good friends when prop
erly appreciated and used by us? Is
not time a genial friend to the heart
that wants comfort? Does it not
heal wounds, dry up tears, rassuage
grief, mollify and soften lacerated
feelings? Oh yes! time is a good
friend to us, and we greet the advent
of the year 1888 with hearty good
wishes, with hopes bright and cheer
full, with purposes to dare and do the
very best We can-'' with malice to-
ward none, and charity toward air.
with a good word for the despond-
ing and a cheer for the weary pill
grim with a firm trust in Him in
whose hands our times are-that He
may shape and direct and so control
in the passage of the days, weeks and
months Of the year 1888, that it may
be the best and happiest of the years
of our lives. We extend to our read
ers the compliments of the season.
