No Wonder She Was Afraid.

A Galveston, Texas, man is in the
habit of getting MP early and going in
swimming in the bay before breakfast.
One morning his wife remarked at the
breakfast table:
George, I'm so anxious while you are
away bathing in the morning that can't
sleep wink until youget back"
George felt very much flattered that
his wife cared so much for his safety,
and being desirous of allaying her ap-
prehensions, he said:
Don't be alarmed. I know how to
swim. and there is no danger of my get
ting drowned"
i was not thinking about your getting
drowned. That never entered my head;
but am afraid that some thief, knowing
that you leave the house early in the
morning, may sneak in while you are
away and steal the silver. "-TeIds Sift-

Deal Gently with the stomach.

II it proves refractory mild discipline is the
thing to set it right Not all the nauseous
draughts and boluses ever invented can do half
ss much to remedy its disorders as a few wine
glassfuls - say three day Of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, which will afford it speedy re-
lief, and eventually Danish every dyspeptic and
bilious symptom. Sick headache, nervousness,
saIlowness of the complexion, fur upon the
tongue, vertigo, and those many indescribable and
disagreeable sensations caused by Indigestion,
are too often perpetuated by iniudicious dosing.
An immediate abandonment of such random
and ill-advised experiments should be the first
step in the direction Of cure; the next step the
use of this standard tonic alternative. which has
received the highest medical sanction and won
unprecedented popularity.

How II Hits Dakota.

Sioux Falls, s. D., May IA
very peculiar case was held for
hearing before Judge Aikens Of this
circuit, in chambers yesterday. Il
came up on n writ Of ha5eds cJrpus
il the case Of the State Of South Da-
kota v. Eleanor Seaman, who Is
charged with adultery. The attor-
ney for Mrs. Seaman raised n novel
point, that there was no law for the
crime Of adultery in South DIkota,
and gave as his reason that the penal
code OF Dakota Territory, adopted in
1877, defined the crime Of adultery
and provided punishment therefor.
On March 3, 1857, Congress enacted
a law defining the .cTime and pro-
viding different punishment. This
law was intended for Utah, but was
general in its application and ap-
piled TO Dakota as well as Utah. The
passage Of this act necessarily re-
Dealed the Territorial statute upon
the subject. Judge Aikens cOnsid-
cred the points as made by the at-
tOrney rs good law and dismissed
the defendant. This decision is
creating considerable interest, as
there are n number Of other cases
which are affected by il.

for by the Russian refugees in

ment in this Part OF Mexico. Itcsn-
sists Of nine families, numbering
IS souls, and is situated on the
"Piedras Verie'' River, about six
miles north Of Casas Grandes. aud
about eighteen miles from the col
ony Of "JuaneE.' The valley at
this point is about nine miles wide
and the river winds through It on
the west side Of the settlement. The
course OF the river is marked by a
dense line Of trees neither bank, a
beautiful contrast to the wide, open
plain on either side. As n rule We
have an abundance Of grass. but
owing 10 the lack Of spring
raius, the grass is not very
good so far this season.
This j. the second year since the
establishment Of this settlement. As
yet IL is without a name, but We
expect in the near future 10 have a
permanent organization and give it
one. 1t is known ~ present among

We are all enjoying the blessing |
Of health, ami feel % thank the |
Lori for the fair prospects before as.
The difficulties We are obliged to /
meet and overcome in settling up |
this country are nothing to com
pare with the trials met by The /
Saints in the settlement Of Utah.
Here bread Is plentiful. and we have
a beautifully open climate without
any snow in winter,and cool. agree

thousands Of Saints in this country
and plenty Of excellent land 10 he
purchased at a reasonable figure.
The Mexican people in this vicinity
seem 90 entertain the best Of feeling
toward Us, and show as every con-
sideratiou. This part OF chihuahua
Is still in an almost uncultivatcl
state, owing 10 the warfare that
has been carried on for years
by the ApaChes, this being

Of that lawless hand. In Casa-
