Concerning No.Man,s-IAnd.

TOPEKA, Kas., Nov. 10. - Twenty-one
Stevens county men who composed the
mob which year ago murdered the sheriff
of Stevens county, in oman's-land dur
ing the Woodsdale- Huzoten county seat
war, were arraigned before Judge Foster,
of the United States district court to-day
United States Attorney Addy made appii-
cation for their removal to the United
States court for the eastern district of
Texas, indictments having been returned
against them by the grand jury there The
attorneys for the defense resisted the ap-
plication on the ground that there was no
Jurisdiction over No mans land. The de-
Tense argued that the territory was under
the jurisdiction of no court This question
is an extraordinary one inasmuch as it af-
fects the title of the United States to No
man STAND and the validity CT several In
dian treaties made many years ago.

PROVO POINTS.

Apostle Thatcher was one of the princi-
pal speakers at the Improvement associa-
tons conference on Sunday afternoon and
evening. In the course of his remarks he
gave an interesting historical sketch of dis
coveries in old Mexico. Among the many
monumental trophies of ancient art and
glory that have been discovered during the
past fifty years the speaker showed that
many went to prove the truth of the Book
of Mormon, which was really an ancient
record or history of people that had re-
sided on this continent long before the con-
quest of Mexico by Cortez or the discovery
Of America by Columbus. In the perorat on
of his eloquent discourse Sunday evening
the apostle declared his allegiance to the
United States and referring to Liberal pro-
ceeding in Salt Lake city said: "They can
neither drive nor kick me out Of the ma
ton"
The final report of the grand jury pre-
scented in the First district court here last
week has been the occasion of some com
ments and criticisms of ibelous nature.
The fact that the report was published in
the Salt Lake Tribune several hours before
being submitted IN court has led some to
assert that the report emanated from the
Tribune, and was adopted by the grand
jury. This we regard as gross libel on
the grand jury. the fact appearing plain
enough, the Tribune stole it.
Mr.. and Mrs John B. Miner have re-
turned from a visit to old England. They
went from here in August, expecting to
prolong their visit until next spring, but
the damp weather of that country seri-
ously affected Mr.. Miners health so he
was obliged to return to his home in Provo.
The "Black Baby" MINISTRIES paraded the
streets at p. m. to day and gave some ex-
cellent music by way of advertising their
performance at the theatre tonight.
There will be a meeting of the National
Woman's Suffrage association of this
county held in the tabernacle next Satur-
day.
There is now a good, substantial new
bridge across the river in Provo canon.
The streets in Provo are now in fine con-
dition, though we have neither moonlight
nor street lamps.
The people here are becoming quite inter
ested in Salt Lake politics.

British Gold in Brazil.

Especial TO THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch. |
BtkDoN, Nov, 19.-[By cable to the New
York SsrdId. SIR James Ferguson, speak
ing last night at hartford made pointed
allusion to the situation in Brazil He said
that the day had brought them news from
the other side Of the Atlantic Of the fall of
an empire. To many in this country the
deposition of the Emperor Of Brazil and
the proclamation of a new form of govern
ment might appear Of little consequence,
but it could not be a matter of indifference
that the form of government might be re-
sponsible to British creditors for no less a
sum than ESQ, 900, 600. and he believed that
nearly all the enterprises to which that
large sum had been subscribed had been
broken, Eas they swere under imperial or
provincial guarantees. Besides this, Brit
ish trade with Brazil imports aud exports
together exceed eli, 100000, and was in
creasing while the country took our manu-
featured cotton to the amount of e., 100000
q year.

Mrs. Della Parnell,s Claims.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch.1
NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-Mrs. Parnell was
interviewed to-day with regard to the re-
cent suggestion that if the Uuited States
government were to pay the claims Justly
due her father, Commodore Stewart, she
would be beyond the reach of want. She
said: That's perfectly true, but there is
very little chance that the claims will be
paid The matter grew out of the war of
1872 and my fathers capture, while com
manding the old Constitution, of the Brit
ish frigates Cyane and Levant. You know
he fought both at once and took them, and
the action was considered one of the most
brilliant achievements in naval history. He
never got any prize money for these cap
lures, although he was entitled to
it. He carried letters of marque
during the war, and took and destroyed
great many British merchant vessels.
He was entitled to prize-money on all mer-
chandise he brought in, but he got none.
The United States government was very
poor in those days and he wouldn't press
his claim. The widow Of his old and init
mate friend, Commodore Stephen Decatur,
was then trying to get claim through
Congress, and my father said he would do
nothing about his own matters until she
had been paid. There are records of these
things in the navy department, think, but
have been ADVISED that after such long
time nothing can be done about the matter.
wish it was so, for if those claims were
paid l should not only have enough for my
self, but something to help my son Charles
with. He is as poor as l am, and of course
needs the money great deal more.
people in this country have no idea Of
the expenses of the Times trials, and his
estate scarcely brings him in pound. OF
course he will not touch a penny of the
funds he had for parliamentary purposes.
The testimonial of $40 900 that was given
to him few years is all spent He used
81 300 to pay off a pressing incumbrance on
his estate, and the rest went into the cause.
They say he is so poor he can't borrow 50
in Dublin. As 1 have said before, he knows
nothing about my troubles. 1 have been
at pains to keep him in ignorance of them,
as it would only add to his burdens to know
them, and it would do no good"

CALGARY, N. W. T., Nov. 19.-There is
considerable excitement among the author
tiles at Lithbridge and Fort Mcleod over
the visit to the territory of large party of
Mormons from Salt Lake city. The party
includes President Woodruff, of the Nor
mon church; George Q. Cannon, late Dele
gate in Congress from Utah; Brigham
Young, jr.. and Bishop Smith, nephew of
the Mormon prophet, Joseph Smith. Their
unexpected visit is for the purpose of in
specting the workings Of the Mormon
colony near Fort Mcleod and to make ar
engagements for providing homes for sew
eral thousand Latter-day Saints. some of
whom are now en- route from Europe.
President Woodruff says that owing to

Utah, ii had been decided to make partial
thousands of Mormons now residing in
| Utah and Arizona will remove to the
Northwest territory. Colonies will be
established at AssinabOine and Alberta

former member of the British Columbia
legislature who resigned his seat in that
body to become a Mormon bishop.
The government authorities at Ottawa,
as well as the governor royal and his
advisory council, are severely criticized by
the masses and classes of the northwest

the evils growing out of the open practice
of polygamy at the first Mcleod colony
Protests were to-day forwarded to Ottawa
and Regina against the proposed establish
ment of more colonies, and if measures are
not adopted at once by the authorities to
head off the movement, the people Will take

Della Parnell's Father-Her Claims
Against the Government

Especial to THE HERALD-EXaminer Dispatch
New YORK, Nov. 19.-The bright girl
known to the newspaper world as Nellie
Bly, in private life is Miss n. B. Cochrane
Few people in New York know her and,
strange as it may seem, the majority of
newspaper men and women of this town
know her just the same as the public does
by reputation. Yet they have seen her
and in seeing her have not dreamed that
the slim girlish figure that walked straight
ahead with the least little bit of hesitancy
in her step that all women have was the
WoHdS Nellie Bly,. When she talks and
smiles her face brightens up, her eyes
sparkle and there is a turn at the corners
of her mouth that is very fascinating.
Miss Bly, is SHINY built and the casual
observer would wonder how she had been
able to stand all that she has gone through
An indominable will, a never-failing
nerve and a constitution of iron are
the things that have carried her through.
In word, she IS a plain every day girl,
with a wonderful head and warm heart.
She is tWenty-one or twenty-five, and may
be twenty-three, with slim yet shapely
figure, oval face, smiling mouth topped by
a cute little retrousse nose and wonder
pair of eyes, with heavy eyeIashes, the
so dark that it looks black at times, small
hands and feet and general air of bust
ness. That's Nellie Bly,. BefoRe'she came
to New York. Miss Bly, was Pittsburg
girl and did work for the Smoky City's
newspapers. Then she went to Mexico.
She came back and wrote book went on
the World, exposed the inner workings of
insane asylums and has kept up her work
and now she is on her way around the
world.
Miss Elizabeth Bisland is a Leuisianan
by birth and is as well known in New
Orleans as she is here in New York where
she is the recognized head Of certain set
of artists and literary people who do a
great deal toward making eastern maya
zines. For long time she was literary
editor and book reviewer for the World and
then went to the Cosmopolitan magazine.
She is one of the best writers in this city,
and her magazine articles on home life
are marvels of word painting. Miss Bis
land is one of the handsomest women in
New York, and is distinctively southern
beauty, her soft eyes, full mouth, the
gentle outline of her figure, her dainty
small hands and feet all pointing to the
south. She has never done anything of
the Bly, order and great deal of curiosity
and surprise was shown here when it was
known she had started on a trip of this
kind. She has large amount Of determi-
nation, however. Miss Bisland is about
twenty-five years old and is a decided
brunette.

Attempt to Blowup Jackson Prison.

JACKSON, Mich. Nov. 1S.-Another at

tonight and the explosion was heard all

destroying to a dangerous point the prison
wall. Three convicts under life sentence
are suspected as they were found in their
cells with their doors unlocked. Latimer
could not be directly connected with this
plot although he was looked to at once. An
inclpient fire in another part of the yard
