\ CraCkSman'S Last Device.

Chicago, October 14.-A safe opening test, which, in its sensa- tional acc"mpaniments, discounts the wonderful feat of Johnstone the mind reader, took place in the Hotel Wayne early .this morning.
 The operator was Henry B. Adams, young man from Mime apolis, who came to Chicago some weeks ago and. took rooms at the Wayne. There he became acquaint- ed with young man, who, although Adams did not know this, was a cousin of the proprietor
 Within the past few days Adams proposed to him to rob the hotel safe. He was to get up at 4 o'clock in the morning and do this.
 The hotel proprietor was advised by hIs cousin, who, at the same time, pretended to be an accomplice in Adams plot. Two detectives were hidden in the office last night, and this morning at the appointed time Adams came in.
 The wondering officers watched him without tools or explosive pre-. pare to open the massive safe, al- though it was evident he did not know the combination.
 He pared the nail of his index finger of his right hand until the blood vessels were exposed. Then by placing the sensitive wound on the knob of the combination lock he could distinguish the movements of the tumblers as they fell.
 For an hour he worked, while the detectives scarcely dared to breathe At last there was a sharp click and Adams swung back the door.
 With a sigh of relief he reached into the safe and laid his hands on a package of bills, but much to his discontinue the officers stepped forward at the same mement and placed him m lar arrest.

what lawful right has the U $. gov ernment to rob me or the Mormon church on the grounds that some one pretending to be a Mormon robbed the U. s. government? The Republican platform of Arizona pitches into the Mormons on the grounds that their dominating text is pOlygamy. If 1t was necessary in order to correct that statement l could present the names of hun dreds of MormOns who would testi- fy that polygamy is thing of the past. A petition was gotten up in Utah discarding polygamy, and the great masses of the Mormon people signed it. For the Daily Citizen to set up howl about polygamy in order to get up political excite ment against the Mormons will have no more effect with the ma- jority of the people of Arizona than singing the song of Old Lang Zyne. The slight-of-hand perform ance by the Republican party would consist of getting the U, s. govern ment to give us state government in Arizona, tie the Mormons, hand and foot, by getting the U. s. gov to take away their rights as Americans born citizens. Then the Republicans being in the ma jority, would carry out their plat form then woe to the Democratic party-come under the yoke buck, you old rascal.
 Very respectfully.

Smith-Cheyney.

The assertion of Mir. Cheyney's organs that Mark Smith has done nothing since he has been in Con- gress falls flat in view of the facts Mir. Cheyney's record in the last legislative council is before the peo- pie. We presume if Mark Smith had put a bill through Congress de- priving citizens of the benefits Of national institutions of charity, he would have "done something" If he had voted for bill to tell a man how he should observe the Sabbath day, he would have "done some thing" If he had voted for a bill which will not allow the employ ment of any but native born Amer jeans in public works, he would have "done something" If he had used his time during his residence in Washington to feather his own nest after he had retired from trust imposed in him, he would have "done something" If he was bus fly engaged at the present time in aiding the un-American party of Arizona in disfranchising the fol- lowers of religious belief because they vote the Democratic ticket, he would be "doing something" If being at ones post of duty, looking after the interests if his constitu- ents, throwing his influence against objectionable legislation and know ing no party lines in his endeavor to do his duty to his constituents ]; if all this constitutes, doing noth- ing" Mark Smith will be returned to his seat in Congress as a rebuke 10 those who would undo the Con- stitution of the United States to suit their selfish ends.-Tombstone Prospector.

Dr. Regnard has raised the queS- ton in one of the medical journals as 10 whether a corpse which sinks to a very great depth is preserved indefinitely or otherwise from put reflection, According to his re- searches, which have been publish ed at some length in the archives of the Biological Society of Paris, pu- trefaction is not found to take place in decomposable substances sub- mitted to a pressure ot 600 to 700 atmospheres; these figures core spending to a depth of 5000 or 1000 metres at sea, From these experiments it must be concluded, according to Dr. Regnard that there is a total absence of putrefaction in the greater depths of the sea.

Is 1t POlygamy'S Doom,

New York, Oct. 14.-The New York Independent will publish to- morrow articles received by tele- graph from President Woodruff ot the Mormon Church and Governor Thomas of Utah, concerning the action of the Mormon Conference of October 9th forbiding polygamy President Woodruff says:
 "The action of Congress is con elusive. The church has no dis. position to violate the laws or defy the Government. The revelation of God requires us to obey the Con stitutional laws of the land. Judge Zane has recognized the action of the church as sincere and final, and has rescinded the rule excluding Mormon aliens from naturaliza- tion."
 "The manifesto of the President of the church." says Governor Thomas, "has now been confirmed by the conference. It comes with the. force of a new revelation, and whatever doubt may have existed as to the purpose and effect of the mamie sto as first sent out, they now seem removed.
 "Gentlles rejoice that the contest begun so many years ago against ploygamy, has finally triumphed for they believe never again will polygamy flourish on American soil"
 This is the most important event that has occurred in the Mormon Church in years. and it is believed will result in greatly advancing the material interests and the prosper ity of the Territory.

 "Hon. NJ. A. Smith, Delegate tc

He will address the peo- pie at Holbrook tonight, Flagstaff tomorrow night and Kingman Wednesday night, and thence he will go to Prescott. MT.

One of the most Interesting pieces of engineering completed this year is the cog road to the summit of Pike's Peak. The total ascent from Manitou, the initial station is 2 500 feet in a distance of g miles. The maximum grade is p per cent. and 1S,477 feet or 39 per cent. of the en- tire line is on curvature, the sharp est curver being 16 degrees. so the aphorism as crooked as the road to Pike's Peak will be truthful as well as applicable.-Railway Age.

An empty whisky flask and phial containing strychnine were found upon the bank of the stream with his clothing. Finger marks and foot tracks were also noticed in the bank, where 1t seems he went into the water, and finger marks were also noticed on the opposite bank, where it seems he endeavored 10 get out. The body was nude and in contracted state, with the hands folded in front across the chest, the head partly in the water. T body was found by two boys wh" were out fishing, and upon nOtifca ton the coroner went out and brought 1t into town. He was 57 years of age and had lived in Tue son since the the war.

Immigration and the Negro.

In the future, we may reasonably
 expect to feel the effect of the change of the movement of immi- grafton from the West toward the
 South and the more rapid growth of cities in this region as the tide flows in a southerly direction, lead by. the report of the prosperous con- dition of the South and the oppor- tunities which the section offers for the establishment of various indus tries which have fourished for some time at the North and West. It is not likely, however, that the South, or any portion of 1t, will be settled in blocks of immigrants, for 1t does not present the same conditions as the Western States. and, with the exception possibly of Texas, there Is not Southern State where any immigrants or colonists in settling would not be exposed to continual contact with those who are, we might almost say, indigenous to the soil, and, besides, it is more than probable that, within few years, we shall notice a tremendous falling off in the flow, as unquestionabiy great movementto Africa will sweep away many of that moving throng that yearly leaves Europe to carve out it's future in a new country. There is now no longer any doubt that in many extensive portions of the African tablelands, the climate Is adapted to the white man, and it Is peculiar fact that in the great bend ol Africa and the neighboring region throughout which the Congo and it's tributaries flow that the most pronounced negro types are found, just as in this country there seems to be no doubt of their con- tinual movement toward the low lands of Mississippi, Louisiana and Arkansas. Ten years ago, of all the States of the Union, Georgia held within her boundaries the greatest colored population, numbering asit then did in that State over seven hundred thousand souls, but now. the State of Mississippi alone con- tains colored population of near ly million, and probably even now that territory which we have al- ludcd to contains about one-fourth of the negroes in the United States, so that the movement which took place in Africa years ago is appa- rently being repeated iE America to day, and the negroes seem to be in the climates most adapted to them and leaving the lands which suit the whites best.- The Charleston World.

The Tariff ot 1S9e.

The influence of the new tariff or
 the prices of articles in daily use
 has been prompt and decided en-
 ough 10 leave no room for misap-
 prehension as to it's true character.
 It is demonstably tax on the eon- sumer-and on the poor consumer
 much more than on the rich one.
 That is characteristic of all pro-
 tective tariffs, and it is only because
 the Mckinley bills more thorough
 ly protective than any other one
 winch has preceded it that it's effect of making the cost of living higher Is more easily discerned. It will not take the wage-earner long to discover that his share of the pro- lection in the bill is denied him, for, from the rise in prices, he will be the first and chief sufferer. The natural impulse will be to seek re- lief by striking for higher wages. But there are great many branches of industry, not benefited by the new tariff, which can, with good reason, resist a demand for this in- creased pay. And it is by no means certain that manufacturers whose profits have been greatly enhanced by higher duties on competing inn ports will be ready to concede to their work people what would be regarded as proportionate share of these profits. The conflict thus engendered is likely to be bitter and is sure to be improbable. But like most disagreeable experiences, it ought to have its instructive side and to be one more influence tend ing toward some economic legisla- tion and perception of what are the conditions of sound and stable commerce.-The Epoch.
 Senator Carlisle tells how it is that the shopkeepers are tempted to raise the price on everything nowadays, whether the tariff direct ly touches 1t or not. It is the nat ural disposition of every man in trade to take advantage of a gene ral rise in the price of commodities, and he is compelled to do so to certaTI extent, because the prices of a great many things which he is compelled to buy and to use for himself and his family will be ac- tually increased by the new tariff law, and he must also increase, if he can, the prices of the articles he has to sell, ill order to compensate himself for his additional expendi- lures. In other words, when you increase the prices of the commod- ities which the people are compelled to have, the almost inevitable effect is to raise to some extent the prices of all other articles. All the pro- ducts of labor, except such as we produce in greater quantities than we need for domestic consumption, as is the case with agricultural pro- ducts generally, will rise in price, but the wages of laborers and the compensation of persons with fixed salarles will not rise. They are al- ways the last to feel the effect of general increase of prices.--BostOn Herald.
