Tasmania Honey.

Some English physicians appear to adopt
in their practice the honey found in such
large quantities in the eucalyptus trees Of
Tasmania, the product Of q small. black
wild bee peculiar to that country. Tho
honey is a thick, homogeneous, somewhat
transparent, sirupy liquid, of q deep orange
color, having an odor suggestive At onos
of it's containing eucalyptus principles, -
very soluble in water, in milk and In wine,
but much less 80 in alcohol, and very din
cult Of fermentation. Thus far expert
ments show it to DO q valuable aliment, an
efficient and palatable substitute for cod
liver oil, an anti-catarrhal, IN agent Affect

properties Of digitalis; . febrifu9e, and IN

The Black Hills Fire.

ST. PAUL, Oct. "a Rapid City special
to the Pioneer Press says: The forest
fires in all parts of the Black Hills are
being got under control, but cannot be
extlnguished entirely until it rains. In
the tin district about sixty square miles
have been burned over, but on most of it
only brush and dead trees were de-
stroyed. In the northern hills compare.
lively little damage wa done. Il is inn
possible to estimate the loss Of timber and
to mountain ranches and mining camps.
Fires during the present season have
been the most destructive in the history
Of the Black FILLS, and, though much
feeling has been aroused, no arrests
have been made. No one has yet been
caught setting the fire.

Idaho's Election.

BOISE Cry, Idaho, Oct. 2.-Incom-
plete returns from seven counties out Of
eighteen in the state give Sweet, repub-
lican, for congress 1900 majority. The
same counties in 1883 gave Dubois, the
republican delegate, $50 majority. The
1000 majority. Late returns show that
the legislature will probably stand thir-
ty-threo republicans to n~ineteen demo.
Gratis. Owing to the great distance Of
many precincts from telegraphic com
munication, returns are coming in very
slowly and it will be several days before
returns from the entire state will be re-
ceived. I.

Great Excitement.

o%ccasioned in the court room at Upper
ary to-day by the evidence of one of the
witnesses, a policeman, who testified that
he followed several Of the defendants
into the vestry of the Catholic church
and tried to overhear what wa said
by them. But the testimony aroused
the indignition of the counsel for the de-
PENDANTS, and he demanded to know If
the penal days had returned, when the
sanctity of the confessional could be in
vaded. The court room became q chorus
of cries and the confusion was 81 great
that it was impossible to go on with the
proceedings and court was there
fore declared adjourned for half an
hour. When court reopened the police
man witness was Cross examined by
Harrington, who called the witness
Harrington to withdraw the expression.
Harrington refused to do so and was or
deredt to leave the case. An uproar ensued,
O'Brien and Dillon, commenting freely
upon the manner in which the case was
conducted. Finally another half hour
adjournment wa ordered. During the
adjournment, Harrington's clients de-
cided to defend themselves. When the
proceedings we're resumed, Dillon had
just begun to address the bench when q
cheer was raised for. Harrington. This
SO exasperated the magistrate that he or
dered the court cleared, and the pro-
ceedings were adjourned abruptly amid
the greatest confusion. A large body of
police was massed outside the court.
There was no rioting.

berry occurred this morning on the Gin
c%innati, Sandusky and Cleveland rail-
road between here and Urbana. I'm.
mediately after the train left Urbana, at
800 o'clock, two masked men, with
cooked revolvers, entered the express car
and compelled the Adams express mes
senger A. L. Scudder, to throw up his
hands. They tied him securely, robbed
the safe of packages containing $500
and other valuables, besids taking the
messengers salary. While they wree at
work, a brakeman attempted to enter the
car and was shot at by of the robbers.
He gave the alarm and the train was
slowed up to give an opportunity to cap
ture the robbers; but they jumped from
the train just as it was entering West
Liberty. One of the robbers, whom the
other called "Jack,' tried to kill Scudder
before leaving the car. Placing his re-
volver at his head, he pulled the trigger,
but the cartridge failed to explode. The

of West Liberty, the two scoundrels
again got aboard, holding the entire crew
at bay. Scudder, who had been released,
opened fire on them with a pistol from
his car door, but was compelled to re-
treat. The robbers kept on board until
Bellefontaine was reached, when they
again jumped off and disappeared. The
officers at B~ellefontaine are searching for
them. Two arrests of suspicious char
acters have been made.

DIscoURAG1NG WILD Il SHOWS.
WASHINGTON, Oct. .3.-Acting Indian
Commissioner Belt has issued instruc-
tions to Indian agents in which he says
the department is informed that a COM
pany is preparing to obtain Indians from
some6f the reservations to join wild
west shows" in Europe. The agents are
instructed to promptly refuse any appli-
cations for this purpose, as it is now
against the policy Of the interior depart
ment to grant permits for such purposes
under any circumstances whatever.
Agents are further instructed to lay the
matter before their respective tribes and
advise them that if any of the Indians
should hereafter attempt to leave their
reservation for exhibition purposes, it
will be regarded as in defiance OF the
authority of the government and that
prompt measures will be adopted to de-
tain them.
THE MORMON QUESTION.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-The Mormon
question was discussed at some length
by Arthur L. Thomas, governor of Utah,
in his annual report to Secretary Noble.
He asserts that the Mormon people are
governed by priests, and that in every po-
litical and usiness act the church is put
first and country afterwards. The popu-
lation of the territory is estimated to be
22O,932, IN increase of 55 per cent. dur
ing the past ten years. Numbers OF
Mormons are recruited by immigration
from Great Britain and the Scandinavian
countries. There is really no charge as
to polygamy. He accounts for the. hold
which Mormonlsm has on the people by
the fact that they are Taught ito keep
aloof from influences outside Of the
church, that their lives are directed by
the Lord, and that the priesthood is the
only authorized medium to reveal and
declase the will of the Lord, and obey
ance to priesthood is practically obey
ance to the Lord. The governor recon-
mends the passage Of either the Cullom
or Struble bill.
