CITIZENSHIP DENIED.
Applications Of Mormons Refused by Judge
Anderson.

SALT LAKE, Utah, Nov. 30.-Judge An
derson today in an elaborate and carefully
prepared opinion denied the applications
for citizenship made by Mormons who had
taken the endowment house oaths in the
Mormon church The applications have
created wide spread attention, and for sew
eral weeks past the judge mas been taking
testimony.
In the opinion in which he states his
ground for refusing admission to such ap-
plications of the MormoD's church, the
judge says the Mormon church has
always been disloyal to the laws
of the United States, disloyal to
the union and seeking its overthrow, and
that the oath administered to its mem
bers in the endowment house binds them
under penalty of death to implicit obedi-
ence in all things temporal as we'll as
spiritual 10 the priesthood and to avenge
the death of the prophets, Joseph and
Hiram Smith. upon the government and
people of the United States.
The DIRECTORS to the right OF these ap-
plicants to be admitted to citizenship in
trOduced eleven witnesses who had been
members of the Mormon church. Several
of these witnesses had held the position OF
bishop in the church and all had gone
through the endowment house and partic-
ipated in its ceremonies 1t was shown
that these ceremonies include the taking
of an oath that he OF she, as the case may
be, will aveage the blood of the prophets,
Joseph and Hiram Smith, upon the gov
eminent of the United States, and will en-
JOIN this obligation upon his or her chill
dren unto the third and fourth genera
tion that he or she will obey the priest
hood in all things, and will never reveal
the secrets of the endowment house under
penalty of having their throat cut
from ear to ear. their bow
els torn out and their hearts
cut out of their bodies; the right arm is an
nointed that it may be strong to avenge
the blood of the prophets.
The evidence establishes beyond any
reasonable doubt that the endowment Ger
emonies are inconsistent with the oaths of
citizenship The application of John
were shown on the former examination to
be members of the Mormon church and to
have gone through the endowment house,
are, therefore, denied. The decision re-
views the evidence given in behalf of and
against five other defendants, and refuses
their application for citizenship on the
same grounds as in the cases OF Moore and
Edgar.

A Thief Can Hiss yillainy.

A Pinkerton detective who tracked
an embezzler to the play says: GA
melodrama was the attraction, and
it was in the middle of the first act
that came in. / did not want to
raise q disturbance, SO l took q
seat behind n man and prepared to
wait until the end ofthe performance.
The scenes in the play were strong,
the william being unusually diaboli-
cal and the hero and heroine noble and
patient. Frequently thelattertound
occasion to express their adherence
and condemnation of thieves and
those who violate confidence reposed
in them, and quite as frequently the
villain scoffed at sentiments of vir.
tue and honesty. l found my man
kissing violently at the villain every
time lie got chance, and nearly
splitting his hands in frantic APP
plause for the hero and heroine. Tears
came in his eyes when the latter
were suffering, and could hardly re-
trainshisfierce anger at the william. Yet
after the play he took his arrest
coolly and confessed without a wink.
When he was arraigned in the police
court the next day he swore point
blank that he had never stolen a
cent, and called me n liar when 1
testified to his confession. l have
met such cases frequently. When

Some Caution Necessary. Perhaps.

Down at the Elks' social the other
night Luke Scl,oolcraft, the minstrel,
told q characteristic story. 1t was
ofa jolly old Irishman, who was
addicted to q very free use of the bot
tie, much to the disgust Of his faith
full wife. She knew that lie was Ego

pealed to their priest to pull him up
In view of the circumstances this
priest thought he wasjustifled in en-
ploying one or two furry tales, SO
when he met Pat on the street he
called him aside and said:
"Pat, you're drinking too hard.
Now, you know that you can depend
upon what I may say. and ! have no
hesitancy in telling you that if you
keep on as you IRE doing you will
change into a rat"
This awful perdition annoyed Pat
greatly, and when he went home he
told his wife about it. OF course, she
worked it up and told him the priest
was undoubtedly right. Pat was
deep in thought for some time. He
did hate very much to give up his
toddy, but the rat idea was too much
for him. Finally he said: "Luk

A Sensational Story Of Gen. Grant.

It is doubtful whetherany chronicle
or romance of the days of chivalry
contains so touching IN instance of
matrimonial devotion as that told
of Gen. Grant. When the honors
came upon the Grants, like SORROWS
to the house OF Denmark, "notsingle
spies, but in battalions, the mistress
of the White House began t. renew

her cross-cyes Strengthened. Wishing

eminent oculist in America. He will

operation, which he assured her
would be easy to accomplish and
without danger. The good lady
could not contain herself for Joy,
and, woman-like lam ] right, mes
dumes?) gave way when she saw her
husband, and contlded to him her
secret, the pleasure she had in store
for him. He looked wistfully into
those dear eyes which had held him
with tender gaze through all the
trinls of u checkcred career, and said,
in his simple way: "Julia, l wish you
would not chaDgetlIem. love them
us they are. and they might seem
changed ifaltered." Nor Lnuncelot,
nor Romeo, nor lover of any cline
or age, ever spoke words of gentler
gallantry than those of the hero of
AppolnattoX.

hight Kind Of Screens.

Transparent screens made of
black or coloredgnuze are very pref
ty placed in front of window where
the view is undesirable. Japanese
embroidery is very effective on such
screens. A comparatively inexpen-
sive and handsome screen is covered
with the raised lincrusta, which takes
any color well, and is capable of a
very rich, decorative effect, especially
when the metallic lusters are used.
For fire screen anything transparent
or semi-transparent is the best, ms it
affords a protection from the fire, at
the same time allowing the cheerful
blaze to he seen through it. Colored
gauze or boiling cloth, either deco
rated with painting or embroidery.
are very pretty, and charming
screen is made by placing ferns or
pressed flowers between two squares
or panels of clear glass.
When about to possess yourself OF
a screen SEQ that ii llarmonizes with
the other things in the room. DO
not let it be too poor for its sur.
roundings.

In speaking of the desert regions

vancing glacial period. over n south

there have been numerous glacial
periods in the past and will he others
in the future, during which the line
Of ice will push further southwark,
till all of New England and the Mid
die states are buried under IL coat OF
ice like that which shrouds Greenland
today.
There is u steady movement to and
fro of this ice line, swinging from
north to south and back again, like
IL pendulum whose sweep is measured
by tens of thousands of years. All
the evidences point to the presump-
ton that the present movement is
southwark, not northward. But it
is too slow to he measured, and
there Is no probability that New

Teachine Frueality.

The wealth of Holland and the
great commercial prosperity of that
country about 200 years ago were
built up byaparsimonious frugality,
which for a long time marked the
character of the Dutch. This habit
gave place to luxury when wealth
had been secured. The clergy used
to rebuke the growingextravagance,
and q French writer tells how a sue
cessful business man taught his fel-
lows a lesson:
Before retiring from business and
taking leave OF his friends in the city
he invited them to dine with him.
The guests, on arriving at his resi-
dence,t were surprised to see the ex-
traordinary preparations that had
been made for their reception. On q
plain oak table, covered with q blue
cloth, were some wooden plates,
spoons and drinking vessels. Pres
emily two old seainen brought in
dishes containing herrings-some
fresh, others sailed or dried.
Of these the guests were invited to
partake; but it was clear that they
had little appetite for such poor fare,
and, with considerable impatience,
they awaited the second course.
which consisted of salt beef and
greens. This, also, when brought in,
they did not seem to relish.
At last the blue cloth was removed,
and one of fine white damask SUBJ
stituted; and the guest were agree
ably surprised to see a number of
servants, in gorgeous liveries, enter
with the third course, which consist
ed of everything necessary to form
a most sumptuous banquet. The
master of the house then addressed
his friends in the following terms:
"Such, gentlemen, has been the
progress Of our republic, We began
with short frugality, by means Of
which we became wealthy; and we
end with luxury, which will beget
poverty. We should, therefore, he
satisfied with our beef and greens,
that we may not have to return to
our behring's, youths Companion.
