The sentence was engraved on plates
of brass in the Hebrew language and
copy sent TO each tribe, lie Droit
gives the following explanation Of the
discovery and subsequent history OF
one of the plates. Ii WIS discovered
in the year 1850 in the city of Aquilla
in the kingdom Of Naples by a search
made for Roman antic mites, and re-
manned there until il vas found by the
m OF arts IN the IrenCu
army in Italy. Up 10 the time of the
campaign in southern Italy il was pre-
served by the sacrisiy of the Carthu-
slams neal Naples, where it was kept
in a box of ebony. Since then the
relic has been kept in the chapel Of
Caserta. The Carthusians obtained,
by their petitions, permission that the
plate might be kept by them, which
was an acknowledgment Of the sacri-
fees which they made for the French
army. The French translation was
made literally by members of the COM
mission of arts. Demon had a fac-si-
mile Of the plate engraved, which was
bought by Lord Howard On the sale Of
his cabinet for $500 francs. There
seems to be no historical doubt as to
the authenticity of this. The reasons
Of the sentence correspond exactly
with those given in the gospel-Cur-
rent Literature.

and turkey. He informed us that that
morning in going out after his COWS, back
of his place, he ran into drove of tur-
keys fully fifty in number, and remarked
that if it hadn't been for the game law
he would have had wild turkey for sup
per. Speaking of deer, he said, eyes,
they are plentiful, could have plenty of
venison, only | fear violating the law !;
but l tell you, six years ago, when l

 Los ANGKLos, Nov. 2.-The Times of this city, the paper that first printed the Lord Sackville letter to the Pomona 'fenquirer" publishes what the editor claims are the real facts connected with the Murchison-West correspondence Says the Times:
 "Information has been gathered directly from the few persons who are on the inside and possessed of all the facts in the case. The idea of writing the letter to Minister West originated with Murchison himself in the latter part of August or early in Septem- beY. He is 8 reputable citizen of Pomona and is an English parentage. The concep- ton of the letter was his thought. He consulted 8 confidential friend in its preparation. Murchison said at the outset that the object was not to perpetrate 8 joke or gratify curiosity, but to get Minister Vests opinion on the topics embraced in the letter. Murchisonis letter was dated Septem- Der and Vests answer September 13. The minister's letter was received at Pomona, Sep tember 20, and kept by the receiver till October 19, full month, when it was brought to Los Angeles by W. A. Bell, the city attorney of Pomans, and laid before W. P. Fitzgerald, member of the Republican State committee, Henry G. Gage, delegate at-large at the Chicago convention. Harris Graham, the editor of the Tines, and one other local candidate. They saw the impor- and it was unanimously decided by persons present to make the letter public without de- lay, which was done. The date of the first publication was October 21.

| Couriers Report Him Safe enc Year Ago, Alter Some HardshIps and Loss of men-He is Thought to be Safe Now as WadeIfa.
 I ZANZIBAR, Nov. 2.-Couriers from Tabora bring direct news from the Stanley expedi- tion, portion of which was met at the end of November, 1887, by Arabs trading. Theee
 Arabs met Stanley's rear guard at a point
 west of Albert Nyanza, southeast of Sanga, just as the expedition was preparing to cross swamps caused by the radiation of the streams that abound in that country. The Arabs did not see Stanley. The detachment seen consisted of thirty men. They stated that Stanley was two days ahead. The ex- petition had suffered greatly on the march through the thick forests where it was inn possible to advance more than mile and quarter daily. They had also suffered in the marshes, where many had disappeared or died. Stanley was obliged to fight some tribes that refused to supply him with pro- visions.
 The expedition had often halted in the ex- peetatIon of receiving endorsements from the Congo. The rear guard at the time men tioned had only been on the march five days after halt of three weeks, owing to ill., ness of the escort who had been attacked with fever. The Arabs estimated the total total strength of the expedition, after all losses, at 250 men. The health of Stanley was then good. The rear guard, which con sisted of natives of Zanzibar, stated that Stanley had decided that he would no longer advance in a north-easterly direction, but would strike toward the north, hoping to avoid the swamps. After getting certain distance north he intended to take an oblique line to the eastward and go strright to Wadelai, where it was thought he would arrive fifty days later, about the middle of January, 1888. The Arabs were of the opinion that the expedition was still strong enough to reach Wadelai.
 It will be remembered that on August 1st information was received from Zanzibar that two messengers had arrived there who had left the interior about the beginning of April and who reported that Stanley had not ar- rived at Madelai up to that time.

TO PREVENT ILLEGAL VOTING.

Both Parties In Indiana TryfAg To
 Devise Means To Stop Ballot Box
 8tuGng.
 INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 2.-Consid erable cor respondence has passed between Chairman Huston of the Republican, and Chairman Jewett of the Democratic central committee with regard to preventing illegal voting. Hus- ton suggested that inspectors be required on receiving ballot to put a rubber band around 1t before placing it in the box, as this
 would prevent ballots concealed with an outer ballot from dropping out in the box after being deposited and so
 defeat attempts at ballot box stufdng. Jew- cit did not believe such an agreement could
 be carried out all over the State at this late
 day, but said that if Huston would put his
 idea in the form of recommendation to the
 inspectors he (Jewett) would cheerfully sign it. Huston then drew agreement embodying the rubber band idea and requesting inspec. tors to csrry it out Jewett has declined to sign the paper, however, saying he has learned that there are not half enough rub Der bands in the State for the purpose, which it is impossible if the bands could be had to distribute them in time for the election He also doubts whether voters would care to have their ballots manipulated I in any way by inspectors, but that of taking them from the voters hand and depositing them The matter rests here. Houston says he has received information that the Demo cratg propose to resort to ballot stufirg, but does not give proof.

SETTLING mBD RUN CLAIMS.

Compromises of the Railroad With
 Relatives - The Total Reckoned at
 S125.OOO.
 PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 2.-The Lehigh Valley railroad company has authorized agents at work settling with claimants for damages on acconnt of the Mud Run disaster. AS com pensation for the loss of the head of family the law fixes $5, GOO as a maximum. In case of litigation no greater sum can be recovered, and verdict might be less, if in the iudg- ment of jury a smaller compensation would be adequate. In regard to minor children the law prescribes that the parents may re- cover what the children would probably earn up to the time they would have attained their majority, less the cost of maintenance. This leaves the amout of damages for the loss of a child quite indefinite, but $1 ,500 is regarded by the railroad officers es the outside figure of compensation.
 Several cases have already been settled, concessions being made by the claimants who are saved the expense and delay incident to litigation. It is estimated that the entire cost to the company in the way of damages will not exceed $125, ,000, which is about one fourth of the rough esti imates made when the accident occurred.
