Mormon rlthinr scrlp.

a Salt Lake correspondent Of The st, Lonfs
tiiobe-Democrat writes; IF you 90 into the
principal Office of the tithing house you will
see a tall young man handling what looks
like money. He is behind a counter and
the counter is protected by high railing.
The man glanccs through the window, then
looks down at the bills, and then goes on
thumbing them like bank teller. He goes
to and from big safe, carrying bundles
done up just as bills are, with little bands OF
brown paper pinned about them. Some
times the young man doesn't stop 70 count,
but takes The amount on the brown slip as
correct and passes ont the money. This is
Mormon money II Is the tithing scrip. It
is used TO facilitate the handling Of the grain
and hay and live stock and produce which
come in II you pick up one of these bills
you viii find it very much like a bank note
in appearance. In one upper corner is the
number OF the bill In the lower left hand
corqer is the in hoe signo OF Mormonism, a
bee hive
"The fase of the bill reads: General Tith-
ara Exur..huuss. Good Only for Merchandise
and Produce at the General Tithing Store
house, Salt Lake City, Utah Each note
bears the signature Of the presiding bishop.
On the back is the denomination again, and
a yignette Of the new temple at Salt Lake
City. The back also bears the wording:
This note is not current except IN the mer-
chandisc and produce departments OF the
General Tithing Storehousc.' Theengraving
is well executed and the printing s well
done. The bills vary in color. There are
greenbacks for one department Of the tithing
house, brownbaclxs for another, and 80 on.
BY using this scrip the church is able to Gre
ate a market for considerable quantities Of
the tithing This scrip is given out in dis
pensing charity It is used in paying for
work on the temple 30 far as the workmen
can make use Of it. Employees Of the tithing
house receive their salaries or allowances
partly in scrip. IN numerous ways the Nor
mon money gets into circulation"

ninnh.a Dog.

Dogs do sometimes perform astonishing
feats, It is true; but as the common saying IS,
there Is reason in all things and ones credu-
lity should not be too heavily drawn upon,
even in favor OF a canine pet. Dinah, a black
woman, lived alone in a small cabin with
little yellow dog, Of which she was very fond.
One day she left pot of soup 70 simmer on
the fire while she walked TO town to mako
some purchases. She returned little late
and, to her dismay, found that the soup meat
had been "lifted clar out de pot, as she an
nounced in thrilling tones to her neighbor
just over the way.

The Zithnr.

It is some satisfaction to me to see that the
either is becoming more popular right along,
for It is only a few years since that this
sweet toned instrument was entirely un-
known 70 any save Germans. But now it Is
quite different, as large number Of people
have taken up the either, and / am convinced
that when il once gets a foothold ii viii not
be given up again quickly, as it is an instru-
ment Of decided merit, its only drawback
being that it is very difficult to learn 10 play.
Agreat advantage this instrument has over
a majority of its class is that melody and
accompaniment are complete, making it far
superior 10 the banjo, mandolin aud guitar,
and it would hardly be thought, judging
from the size Of the zither, that it has COM
pass Of over Eve octaves Musicians Of note
arc now composing and arranging music for
the either, some Of it in the quartet FORM
thus enabling either clubs TO perform the
better class Of music, and a number Of the
large sheet music publishing houses turn out
great deal OF either music. There are now
a large number Of either clubs in this
country, this city having one which Is in the
eleventh year Of its existence, and in a most
nourishing condition. Interview in st. Louis

ens a VIVA Mineral.

The question was involved in the case Of
the westmoreland Natural Gas company vs
De Witt ct al, decided recently by tho su-
preme court OF Pennsylvania, whether the
possession Of certain gas on leased land went
with the possession Of the land. The com
plainants had put down we'll which had
tapped the gas bearing strata, and it was the
only one on the land. They had it in their
control having only to turn on valve 10
have it now into their pipes for ready use,
The court held that the fact that they did
not keep 1t flowing. but held it generally IN
reserve, did not affect their possession any
more than min owner affects the continu-
ance of his water rights when he shuts down
sluice gates The court said: Water, oil and
still more strongly gas, may be classed by
themselves, if the analogy be not too fanciful,
as mineral fern natur@ In common with
animQls and unlike other minerals, they have
the power and the tendency to escape with
out the volition Of the owner. They be-
long to the owner of the land and are part
Of it 80 long rs they are in it, and are sub
ject to his control, but when they escape and
20 into other land or come under another's
control the title OF the former owner is gone.
Possession is not necessarily possession Of the
gas. II an adjoining or even distant owner
drills his own land and taps your gas sc that
it comes into his well and under his control,
il is no longer yours, but his And equally
so between lessor and lessee IN tho present
case-the onewho controls the gas hasit ia his

at cost to close business. We call
special attention to our large stock

turn the stock into cash as soon as
possible. Those looking for bargains,
will do well to call and examine the
stock, for this will be the cheapest

This is no penny trick, as we have
positively made up our minds to
quit the business, or we will sell the
entire stock to a person with the
ready cash. Here is chance seldom

lished stand, doing a good business
