How Frank Leslie Died.

Mr.. Leslie was physically strong and
hearty to the very hour of his death, all
his life being singularly free from aches
or pains. His death was caused by a
small tumor in the throat; being just
beneath the jugular vein, the tumor
could not be touched by the lance The
day of his death Mr.. Leslie took a long
walk, little thinking that in a few hours
he should be numbered with those who
have gone on ahead of us to the un-
known country. They sent for me in
the heart of the city. FASTENED to his
bedside with all speed. When I arrived
he lay sleeping. Ispoke to him. He
did not know me, or appear to take
much interest in my words. Still, felt
hopeful. l could not believe that he
must die. Those about the bed were
wiser.
One said to me: do not deceive
yourself; this means DEATH" I put my
two arms over the dying mans shout
ders and looking into his face asked him
to speak to me. He opened his eyes,
smiled family, then said to me these
words: "You are beautiful and I love
your He had thrown all his life into
his voice. His head dropped back-he
was dead. Yet even in the face of death
this man had time to turn aside from
the deep Plutonian shadows Of eternity
and consecrate his expiring breath to
the love and tenderness of wife and
home. All, sir, such life as this could
not have been entirely in vain.--Inter-
view with Mrs. Leslie in Detroit Free
Press.

Charitable.

A gentleman has been complaining to
the papers that he has dropped form
by mistake for a penny into the slot of
an automatic machine and cannot get it
back; no, nor even the piece Of chocolate
he bargained for. boo, hoo, hoo"
Why, that's nothing to what happened
to me when was much smaller boy,
and yet did not cry about it. I was
taken to ''call'' upon most excellent
clergyman who had a missionary box
upon his drawing room table. The po-
lite function hung rather heavy on my
hands, and was amusing myself with
trying whether a five shilling piece-all
the money had in the world, invested
in that gigantic coin for safety-would
go into the slit in the box. It was a
close fit, but unfortunately it did go and
slipped out of my fingers. There was a
terrible metallic splash-a rock Of silver
falling into q sea Of coppers-and then
II knew no more" When [ came to
myself I found my family and the cler-
gyman in raptures over my charitable
act.-James Payn.

JACKSONVILLE, FLA Nov. IS, 1890.

Mr.. j. 4. Johnson, General agent:
Dear Sir beg leave to acknowledge
the receipt of check for SIS 900 in pay
ment of the policy which my deceased
brother, Thos. P. Brennan, held in the
Mutual LIFE INSURANCE Co., OF New
YORK, and to thank you for the assist
ance you gave me in connection there
with, and the company for lis prompt
ness, it having paid the claim within
ten days after the filing Ct the proofs of
death.
AS yon are aware, my brother paid but
two quarterly payments OH his policy, as
he fell victim to typhoid fever within
five months after being insured.
So little did he apprehend death, that
he, after paying his first quarterly pre-
MUM, thinking that he had too much
insurance, had his policy reduced from
$4,000 to $4,000.
Wishing you and the great company
you represent continued prosperity,
am, yours, very truly,
MORT J. BRENNAN. Executor.

Spectacle Cure for Headaches.

A New York physician who has for
several years been studying the relation
Of the eye strain to headaches, etc., in
children has published the result of his
labors. He finds that cases of short
sight, far sight and irregular sight often
go unrecognized until the continued eye
strain results in chronic headache and
lassitude, OF even more serious nervous
disorders. The most approved modern
treatment in certain cases of headache
is to order the use Of spectacles.-New

WASHINGTON, June Especial telegram
to THE HERALD. There appeared in TIE
SALT LAKE HERALD on Tuesday last a
Washington dispatch which stated that
some of the eastern and New England
Senators were looking a little coldly on the
proposition to admit Wyoming and Idaho
at this session, and that nothing would
probably be done with the admission bills
for another year at least. ''When THE
HERALD of that date reached Wyoming
said Delegate Carey to-day, 'it created
more excitement than any other edition Of
newspaper that has circulated there for
years. All through the territory public meet
ings have been held at which resolutions
were passed calling upon Congress to DELAY
no longer the work of admission. THE
HERALD dispatch has given our Demo-
Gratis at home an opportunity to hit at the
Republican Senate and claim that their OBJ
1ect IN delaying admission is the political
uncertainty of the territory, while another
effect of the publication is to deluge me
with kilograms urging me to have the bill
called up at the earliest possible moment.

me will be done. But who will say after
this that THE SALT LAKE HERALD is not

COINAGE OF SILVER.
The House Bill will Probably
Pass day.
THE GREAT STRUGGLE WILL BE
In the Conference Committee Senator PIumb's
Argument Representative Walker
Says it is all Politics.

WASHINGTON, June 6.-[Special telegram
to The HERALD. THE probabilities to-
night are that the House silver bill will be
passed tomorrow. Mr.. Payson will try to
have the bill recommitted, but it is doubt
full whether the speaker viii entertain the
motion. The final vote on the bill will not
be a strict party vote, as some Republicans
will vote against it and some Democrats
for it. The Senate free coinage men will in
the end vote for the financial committee
bill. The final struggle will be in the con-
ference committee, when the Senators will
try to strike out of the House bill the
clause allowing the secretary to re
deem the silver notes in bullion at
his discretion The belief of the support
ers Of the House bill tonight is that the
bill will in the end become law as it now
stands, or that no silver bill will be passed

Important Land Decisions.

WASHINGTON, June 6.-The secretary of
the interior to-day rendered an important
decision in the case of the Northern Pa
ciic railroad company against John Ste
venson, involving tract of land in Boze-
man, Montana, land district. The secre-
tary, in effect, holds that prima faeie
valid unexpired presumption fling existing
at the date when the grant to the Northern
Pacific company became effective excerpts
the land covered thereby from the grant.
Also that the presumption of the existence
of a pre- emption claim ceases on the exDi-
ration of the statutory period decided for
making of final proof and payment
The presumption arises thereafter
that whatever claim previously attached
to the land by reason of such filing had been
abandoned The presumtion, however, is
not conclusive, but open to rebuttal by
any one claiming right or interest who
may allege the contrary.
The secretary also rendered an import
ant decision in the ex parte case of James
w. Barry. The secretary in his case holds
pre-emptor whose claim was pending at
the time of the passage of the homestead
act, March 2, 1889, may transmute his pre-
emption filing into homestead entry not
withstanding the fact that prior thereto
he may have had the benefit of one home
stead entry.

A Suit Against Cora uruuahart Potter.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch. |
New YORK, June 6.-The suit of Henry
Clay Miner against Cora UrQuahart Potter,
the actress, was broughtto trial yesterday.
Miner claimed 81, 40 for breach of con-
tract. Mrs. Potter was engaged for her
first American tour by Mr.. Miner, the
terms being travelling expenses and those
of maid and S400 week. There was also
some stipulation as to second season. Mrs.
Potter went abroad after the end of the
hrst year and returned with number of
handsome Worth gowns She invited Mr..
Miner to private view and paraded before
him in her different COWS. She then told
Miner he was to pay $4,000 for them. He
refused to do this and Mrs. Potter broke
her contract. a great deal of correspon-
dence was read in court mostly between
Mr.. Miner and Mrs. Potter prior to her
American debut. Mr. Miner in these let
tiers called her the queen of American
tragedy and comedy, and said she was on
the very top round of the dramatic ladder.
The case was continued.
