The Advantage Of Rest.

There is no better preventive OF
nervous exhaustion than regular, I'M
hurried, muscular exercise. Ii we
could moderate our hurry. lessen our
worry, and increase our open-alr ex-
ercise, large proportion OF nervous
diseases would be abolished. For those
who can not get sufficient holiday the
best substitute is an occasional day In
bed. Many whose nerves are con-
stantly strained in their daily voes-
ton have discovered this Tor

in Barcelona told his medical man
that he always went to bed for two
or three days whenever he could DC

Prohibition In Iowa.

DEsMo1NEs, January 10.-Governor
Larrabee's biennial message was de-
iiyered to the Legislature this after
noon. Speaking of the prohibitory
law, the Governor says:Much progress
has been made il the enforcement OF the
prohibitory law; not only has the
public sentiment much improved in re-
alton to it, but judicial officers are now
disposed to secure its enforcement.
Many judges give strong testimony in
it's favor, showing that where
it has been well executed, there
has been a marked reduction in
criminal offenses and also in court
expenses. During the last year, and
particularly during its latter half,
there has been a decided falling
off in. penitentiary convicts and
very large number OF county
tails have teen emptied. Some OF
tnem for the first time in years. There
has been marked Improvement in the
condition of the poorer people, especi
ally in families of laboring men ad-
dicted to strong drink, while there is
very little difficulty now, in enforcing
the law IN the rural districts. and in q
very large majority of counties. There
are still few portions of the State,
particularly some of the larger cities,
where the law is not enforced. This,
however, does not include all such
cities, for in Des Moines, Sioux City
and Cedar Rapids, three of the largest
and most rapidly growing cites,
the State prohibitory law is now,
and has been for the past
wear, we'll enforced. The constitution
makes it incumbent on the governor to
enforce the laws, and citizens have
again and again called upon me to en-
force the prohibitory law in few
| counties and places where as yet but
little regard has been paid to it. At
times, have called upon the judges
sheriffs and other officers to aid IL
&C omplishing this, but regret to say
without success. know OF no means
at the command of the executive
which can be- relied upon to secure
better results in the future. I, there
fore, recommend joint committee o.
| the general assembly, to be ap
pointed early in the session, to in.
quire into the, reasons for the
acknowledgements of this law in
certain communities, and whether
officers there are neglectful OF theil
| duties. I think some measures should
be adopted to quicken the consciences
of officials who neglect or refuse to per.
form their sworn duty, or else provide
q way for their suspension or removal
It is disgrace to the State to have itt
authority so openly defied. Our people
are strong in their convictions, this Law
shall be enforced as we'll as others, and
it is the duty of the Legislature to pro
vide means. The authority Of the Leg
| islature in these matters is no longer 6
subject of dispute. The recent decision
of the Supreme Court of the United
| States settles that question.

Bsck's Hot Springs.

For some time past Beck's Hot
Springs have been closed down, while
certain repairs which were necessary
for the better accommodation of the
public were making. At the point
where the spring formerly dubbed into
a large pool under the overhanging
rocks, 12,O00-gallon tank has been put
in. The supply. always more than suf-
ficient, has been considerably aug
mented as a consequence, and tie
tank thus serves a double purpose,
being reservoir and cooler. From
this tank the water is now carried by
means of stove pipes to the second
cooler, or to the baths direct, where the
proper temperature for the treatment
of skin diseases may be had. Superin-
tendent II. B. Clawson has made other
improvements which will be appre-
ciated by those using these medicinal
baths. A smoking bathroom has been
fitted up, and for the first time on rec
ord man can now get hot bath and
have warm fire. to dress and undress
by. It is needless to state that the
baths are again open to the public.

What AMI To Dof

The symptoms of Biliousness are I'M
happily but too well known. They
differ in different individuals to some
extent. A Bilious man is seldom a
breakfast eater. Too frequently, alas,
he has an excellent appetite for liquids
but none for solids of morning. His
tongue will hardly bear inspection at
any time; if it IS not white and turred,
it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of
order and Diarrbea or Constipation
may be a symptom or the two may
alternate. Th@e are often Hemorr-
holds or even loss of blood. There may
be giddiness and Often headache and
aciditY or fatulence and tenderness in
the pit of the stomach. To correct all
this if not effect cure try GREEN'S

HAvBRHILL, Mass, January l0-The

smoking. parior and three passenger
cars. The engine passed safely, but
the smoker and two cars left the track.
Toe smoking car ran on the bridge
and turned over. One coach smashed
into the water-tank house. and the
other through the sleeper. The crash
was fearful, and the cries of the people
terrible to hear. The cars did not take
fire. Six persons were known to have
been killed, several others are expected
to die and many others are more or
less seriously injured. The train was
on time and running at ordinary speed.
Physicians we're summoned and
the wounded and dying were
rapidly cared for. Several bodies
were mangled beyond recea MI
ton, The list of the killed as
far as ascertained is as follows: John
o 'Brien, of Bradford; john Madden,
section boss, of Bradford; Q. P. Good
win, wife and child, of Kennebunk,
Maine; an unknown man having q
card in his pocket with the name of J:
HazIeton. Fifty-two passengers in all
were wounded, some badly. One OF
the saddest sights was the death OF Mrs,
G. P. Goodwin and little daughter, OF
Kennebunk, who we're riding in the
second passenger car with her little
child in her arms. Both were instantly
killed, as was her husband.

The Church Case-Rights OF a
COmmissiOner-General.

When the hour arrived yesterday
morning for the opening of the Supreme
Court, Judges Zane and Boreman only
were present, Judge Henderson having
failed to return from Ogden.

in the case of the United States vs.. the
Church of Jesus Christ OF LAtter-day
Saints, in the matter of fixing bond

ferred until the afternoon. when Mr..

hearing on January 18th, was post
poned until the 18th.

Dickert & Meyers Sulphur Company,
went over to the Goth.
Messrs. Thurman and Suth rland
and William Greer presented an appii-
cation for writ OF prohibition, forolo-
ding Commissioner John E. Hills to
hear and determine civil case
brought before hum. The suit IS
brought by the West Field Irrigation
Company against William Holt: o.
Spanish Fork, U sah County, Tor )! 30
The point raised in issue as stated by
Mr.. Thurman 7as that the Commits
sioner had no jurisdiction in the matter.
The Territorial statute provided that an
action of this kind should be com
menced in the precinct where the de
PENDANT resided, and no justice outside
of that precinct could have jurisdiction
of the commencement Of the suit. The
Edmu ads Tucker law gave to United
States commissioners jurisdiction con
current with justices. and as Mr.. Hnls
rented and had bis Office outside OF the
precinct where the defendant resided,
be could not assume this extended
jurisdiction. If commissioner could
take up case in this fashion he would
far exceed the power of 3 justice OF the
peace. when only equal power was con-
ferred. :,
