ploring a Swamp.
GAMBLER, FLA, May 5.-The extremely
dry weather continues, and crops of all
kinds are suffering terribly from the
drought. 1t has scarcely rained for two
months. Tomatoes, cucumbers and beans
are suffering the most, and if ram does not
soon come the crop will be cut short. Grave
fears are entertained for the orange crop,
as the bearing trees are beginning to shed
their fruit. Peaches are doing fine, and the
crop will be heavy one.
A party of a dozen or more explored the
dense swamp between this place and the
Ocklawaha river last week. This swamp
has heretofore been impossible, but the dry
weather has dried it out. and the explorers
had only to cut their way through the
underground and vines. 1t is one and a
half miles to the river. The party made
Heather Island their objective point and
struck it exactly. A road is talked OF being
built through the swamp to bring out the
next orange crop to this place for shipment.

And AZrael heard, afar;

Within the gates ajar,

A little voice is stilled.
A tiny chair is vacant now,
Which never can be filed.
No more we'll hear his gentle voice
Murmur sweet words of love;
He went from loving arms below
To loving arms above.
Fer sin could touch his pure young heart,
He passed away from EARTH
And safely In his Heavenly home
He has immortal birth.
Safe evermore, from earthly storms;
Safe, from all care and strife
He never bore the weaW cross,
He gained eternal life.

When earthly ties are riven.

THE TRICKY meRmONS.

Something is needed to offset the skillful and suble work which is being done by the Mormons and those who are helping them in their efforts to secure the admission of Utah as State This something is furnished by the Rev. W. M. Montgomery of Minneapolis, who has put forth an elaborate and able re- view of the whole situation.
 MT. Montgomery shows that the Mormens are not to be trusted because they have no moral restraint and have no regard for truth when they believe the truth would damage Mormonism. Lying is publicly taught as virtue. AS an instance, George Q. Cannon, delegate to congress, made oath that he was not violating the laws in relation to polygamy, while at the time he had four wives and soon after married another. Recently when in- dicted for polygamy, after vainly endeavor- ing to bribe the deputy marshal to allow him to escape, he left his bondsmsn to pay $45, ,000, and has since been in hiding. United States Attorney Dickson of Salt Lake City recently said, "Thers is being reared up here community of perjurers."
 Mir. Montgomery urges congress to disre- gard the Mormon seductions and enact such legislation as the Utah commission advocates and as is desired by the 5000 non-Mormon citizens of the territory. To admit Utah as State, under the Mormon leaders constitu tion, will be not to abolish polygamy but to shield and strengthen it. He says: In all past contests with the United States the Mormons have in reality invariably been vic torious, and always through diplomacy, trick f,o F. fiattering and hoodwinking United States officers, or entrapping them, or defaming them, or arraying them through trickery one against another; sometimes by threats, or mobs, or by assassinations; by refusing to testify against each other; at one time defy- ing the government; at another assuming a deceptive obedience; again, by filling the ings: and again through we'll paid attorneys and a powerful lobby of men and women in Washington city. Their present tactics are diplomacy and the tricks of lawyers. So suddenly was this game begun that the dele- gates to constitution convention was issued June IS, the delegates chosen June 25, and the convention assembled June 30, all within fourteen days, without the least foregoing suggestion or discussion of so important a matter. The non-Mormons saw the trick and abstained from the whole proceeding, and are 8 unit against the admission of the territory into the Union. The whole scheme was @ lawyers device suddenly carried through by the peremptory edict of the Mormon priest hood.
 There is truth enough in this to demand attention. The Mormons want to get rid of United States control, and there is ample reason to believe that they will not beparti- cular about their methods.

Natural Refreshing Sleep.

GLEEPLE5SNESS, with restless and wakeful Knights, followed by weak, tired and exhausted feeling arising in the morning, forerun- ners of physical prostration and complete nervous exhaustion ending in insanity. Thousands allow themselves to drift toward the awful verge Of in sanity without knowing that the feelings and sations which they experience day by day fast hurrying them on to utter mental collapse and ab- solute prostration of nerve power. Save yourself from these terrible results while there is yet time by the use of that wonderful nerve restorer, Dr. Greene's Nervura Nerve Tonic, which is purely vegetable remedy and perfectly harmless. It may be given to children the most delicate invalid without fear. It soothes, calms and quiets the weakened, irritated and overexcited nerves, pro- ucing perfect repose and refreshing natural sleep; at the same time it imparts renewed life, strength, vitality and vigor to the nervous system, and re- stores the physical energies and powers to perfect health and strength.
 I have been troubled for the past ten years with what the doctors cal debility and disturbed Nervura Nerve Tonic and the results most grat- flying. am sleeping as quietly as an infant. and feel that have new lease of Gfe For nervousness and sleepessness never found anything like it.

ed and examined throughout with the help of an electric light, and no trace of a flaw or blow hole has been discovered. It is thought to be of uniform quality in all its parts, and fit to endure the severest tests. It has now to be turned down on the outside to it's true dimensions, and then after being annealed it will be sent to the arsenal at Washington to be riied, finished and tested. If 1t stands the tests it will be superior to the built up guns which cost at least ten times as much.
 An interesting petition to the New York legislature is that which is being signed by owners of securities of railroad corporations operated within the State. It asks that the State commissioners be empowered to pass upon requests for changes in rates, and that no such changes shall be made without their permission; also that no new roads or ex- tensions shall be built without previous pub lie notice and consent of the commissioners, and, again, that all the corporations in ques- ton be required to give monthly sworn state ments of their earnings and expenses. Any, thing that will help owners of railroad stsecurities' to know more about them de- serves hearty support.
