4 day or two since we noted the
issuance, by Andrew Jensen, of
vols. 5, g, :, ami OF the iistaricdi
Record, bound in one. This COM
binatiOn makes a book OF over 1000
pages. IL is next 10 impossible to
over estimate its value. As n hook
Of reference on matters Of Church
history, also upon matters Of interest
TO localities aud IN ecclesiastical
organizations IL is simply worth its
weight in gold. IL also atfJnls much
information Of a personal character,
embodied in numerous biographical
sketches.
What could be more interesting
or profitable in literature to Latter
day Saints than n s'Church ency-
clop;edia, " and this is tho genius Of
the work which Brother Jensen
offers.
The Church Of Christ in this dis
pensation has an unwritten history.
II must in time be given 10 the
world in more or less elaborate
shape. This is n labor yet TO he
performed, and when the task is
Undertaken il will be found that
the compiler Of the book now re-
ferred to will have made the work
Of the future historian eompara
lively easy. Hefurnishes ground
work that will doubtless make a
most valuable base Of operations, the
keys given in his cOmpendious
- - II
details TO reach them by much more
direct paths than he could without
such potent assistance.
We should think that the book
would not only be an excellent and
priced addition to any private IL
brary among the Saints, but wouh
prove n most useful auxiliary TO any
association Of the young which
makes the study Of Church history
q part of its exercises.

A White House Dinner.

The last Of these receptions given
February 2Sth, ISIS, was in every
respect the grandcst, 5000 persons
being then received in the White
House. To furnish refreshments
fof 50 vast a thrOug required pre-
partition which from its magnitude
Is interesting. This work, under the
direction Of Steward Cmmp, de-
volved upOn Mime. Demonent &
Sons together with the chef
Of the White House kitchen,
J. =. Crutchet, who, with 10 assist
ant cooks, so Steward Crump says,
"pushed thiDgs.o Two barrels OF
stewed terrapin and what appeared
10 he a wagon load OF chicken GRO
quets were made, oysters by the
thousand were cooked. a huge
cake in semblance Of n log cabin
held several gallons Of charlotte:
5000 gallons Of ice cream were
frozen. The supply Of cake seemed
endless, for added to that which was
used to form decorative pieces six
or seven hundred pounds Of general
cakes were at hand.
Beside what is enumerated above,
was n variety Of suhstantials and
delicacies, which made the refresh
ments furnished for these receptions
rs abundant in quantity as they
were acceptable in quality. The
printed menu lacked mention OF
some special pieces which attracted
general attention. Insufllciency Of
supper room in which to serve re-
fneshmcnts was overcome by placing
tables throughout the White House
wherever room could lie found or
made for them. Two thousand clean
plates were ready for the start and
there Was no idling for the ten
dishwashens after feastipg began.
The floral decoration for this oc-
casion was unequaled in its profu-
sion. Both the state and family
dining rooms were flied with eX-
otics and rare foliage plants; the
tables being literally burdened with
n bloom Of rusebuds, lilies Of the val
ley, carnations, orchids and other
choice representatives Of the floral
kingdom. Emblems Of every con-
ceivable sort were devised and
throughout each room n repetition
of this gorgeous display, lavish in
the extreme, was varied 10 suit sur
roundings.-Er.

CHICAGO, Dec. Detectives
john Slit and \. J. Grove and
Patrolman Redmond Mcdonald,
who testified in favor Of Daniel
Coughlan in the recent Cronin trial,
received notice Of their dismissal to-
. day from the force "for conduct I'M
becoming an officer and for neglect
Of duty"
There was
A SOUND OF WEEPING
| in the visitors' cagein the jail this
morning. The friends Of the four
men Yesterday convicted called on
them and deplored their fate. Burke
alone received no callers. He pre-
served the same careless demeanor
he has exhibited since the trial
began. Little Kunze had recov-
cred his spirit. The fact is, all the
prisoners, now that the suspense is
over, are looking forward with hope
TO the possibility Of a new trial.
STATE ATTORNEY LOSGNBCKER
this evening had conference with
one Of the Cronin jury, whose name
he withheld, who told him the yer
/ dict was reached as he surmised.
Juror John Culver, who spent much
OF his spare time during the long
evenings reading the Bible, was the
influential factor. The first Incl
dent in this connection occurred
while the trial was in progress, AT
the time when Mrs. COnklin testi-
fed. That evening he notified his
fellow jurors that he sOlemnly be-
lieved she had committed perjury.
Later, Mrs. Hertel, he thought was
liar, and Niartinson, the express
man, did not really know Burke,
while the CarlsOns were plainly |
telling falsehOOds. To illustrate rs
to expressman Martinson, Mr.. Gull |

wife Of his partner, who one day |
saw n man riding ina buggy whom |
she was sure was Culver, when, in |
point Of fact, she was entirely mis- |
taken. Culver seemed to see in near
~ every witness for the State vim

ST. PAUL, Dec. 1.-THE Pioneer
Press special from Pierre, ). D.,
says that Governor Millette returned
today from the districts where desti-
tuition has been reported, and says
he finds things not so bad as he
feared. In Minor and Faux coun-
ties there was almost a total failure
of crops, and in adjacent counties
there are many cases of absolute
destitution, and there would have
been suffering but for the prompt
assistance furnished. The people
are healthy and in good spirits.

Hale asked that the resolution be
laid over, and 1t was done.

which was agreed 10, calling on the
Secretary Of the Interior for infor-
nation as 10 the disIo- itlon Of the
lands comprised within the military
reservations that have been relin-
guished by the War Department.
Mitchell Withdrew the resolution
offered 10y him last week in refer
ence to the failure Of the Pension
Bureau 10 furnish him with copies OF
certain papers in n pension claim.
Commissioner Rlum had sent him
the papers, with letters stating the
refusal TO furnish them had been
based on an old regulation of the

one, in order to prevent a waste Of
the effective strength Of the office.
Mitchell remarked that any senator,

plicant himself, should have a right
% copies Of papers. There was q
brief discussion on this point.

THE EXECUTIVE SESSION

Of the Senate this afternoon lasted
nearly two hours. The principal
topic Of discussion was the nominal
ton of Judge Brewer 10 be Associate
Justice Of the Supreme Court. This
was called up by Senator ingalls,,
upon n favorable report by the COM
mittee on judiciary, although there
was no minority report. The
confirmation OF the nomination
was opposed by Senators Of both
parties, it is said, who based their
objections upon two grounds: First.
his decision in prohibition cases in
Kansas, which was afterwards re-
versed by the Supreme Court. Sec
ond. the statement OF facts in Judge
GrCsham's review Of the APPOINT
meRt Of receivers for the Wabash
system Of railroads 10y Judge Brew
er, whose order in the csse Judge
Gresham vacated so far rs il affected
those roads within the limits Of his
circuit. twas asserted these things
justify n suspicion that Judge
Brewer is a friend Of corporation in
terests, rs against those OF the pub
lie; and that the facts, rs stated in
Judge Gresham's review, warrant
an investigation. Friends of Judge
Brewer, il is said, denied ne was IN
any wise unduly influenced in his
action in the Wabash receivership,
but the adjournment came before
the case was disposed Of. 1t is be-
lieved, however, the nomination
will be confirmed; probably tomor-
row.
