1t is alleged that for a generation the
people of Alexandria. Va, have been
afflicted with the whistling distemper.
1t has often puzzled the good people Of
Alexandria to know why General Albert
Pike changed his place of residence from
this place to Washington a few years
ago. His residence at the corner of
Cameron and st. Asaph streets was one
of the incest in this town. He had his
magnificent library there, and when a
few years ago he announced that he had
determined to remove to Washington
many were the conjectures as to the
cause Of the move, and many were the
causes assigned.
Only a few days before his death the
matter was cleared up. In a conversa-
ton with a gentleman from this city the
general was asked why he had left this
city for Washington, and his reply was

The Gelada balloons sometimes have
battles with the Hamadryads, especially
when the two species rave a mind to rob
the same field, and if fighting in the hills,
will roll stones on to their enemies. Not
long ago a colony Of Gelada balloons,
which had been fired at by some black
soldiers attending a duke of Coburg-
Gotha on a hunting expedition on the
borders of Abyssinia, blocker pass for
some days by rolling rocks on corners.
This seems to give some sur Jrt to a Gu
rious objection raised by hinese local
governor in n report to Las superior on
the difficulties in the way of opening
to steamers the waters of the upper
Yang-tse. The report, after noting that
the inhabitants on the upper waters were
ignorent men who might quarrel with
strangers, went on to allege that mon
keys, which inhabited the banks, would
roll down stones on the steamers. 1.-THE

them, especially if the men or the mon

1t is obvious hat if we would find any
analogy for the growth and force of this
movement of the Salvation Army, we
must go back to the enthusiasm exerted
by the preaching of the Crusades. to the
work of Francis and Dominic in founding
the mendicant orders, to the Protestant
Reformation, to the preaching of George
Fox, or to the growth of Wesleyanism
at the close of the last century. Further,
no attentive student of early church
history n fail to see many striking
points of analogy between the methods
adopted and the results achieved by the
Salvation Army and those which aston
ished and Disguised the pagan world in
the rapid success attained by the early
missionaries of the Christian church.

The Chinese are not supposed to have
much talent or liking for humor, but a
little story related by the author of
Three Years in Western China" shows
that they are not altogether deficient in
that respect:
Several of my followers were opium
smokers, aud one of my bearers had CON
tracted a great craving for the drug. He
was somewhat disreputable in appear
ance, but a willing worker. His bag
gage consisted of the clothes on his back
and n small bundle containing his opium
pipe and the necessary paraphernalia for
smoking.
On leaving a certain village l noticed
that the bundle had assumed larger di-
mansions, but my speculations as to its
contents proved to be wide of the mark.
A few miles to the west of Yang-lin a
halt was called for rest, and the cakes on
the roadside stall were quickly bought
and devoured. The opium smoker,
meanwhile, sat apart on the edge of the
stone road.
How is it that you are all eating and
drinking said he to one Of his comrades,
"and haven't a single lash to follow
your example,
The other man put his thumb to his
mouth, and pretending to inhale, pro-
nounced the single word, "Opium," at
which the smoker smiled and was silent.
On the following day we were sud
denly overtaken by a sharp rain storm,
and when the other bearers were search
ing for shelter the smoker solemuly pro-
duced his bundle, gravely undid the
cover, and proceeded to unfold and put
on a first class waterproof coat which he
had wisely purchased in the village to
which we have referred. The astonish-
ment on the other mems faces and the
look of triumph in which the smoker
INDUCED were a study.

A Wonderful Trim.

A party composed of the Misses Rosa
and Katie Schroeder, Annie snd Maggie
Liggan, Ollie Beason, Miss Lizzie Hill
Messrs. Charley Morley, w. A. Richie, E
H. Alvey, Mr.. and Mrs. Oliver Alvey OF
Salt Lake and a HERALD representative
made daring but successful trip to Obser-
vatory Peak, which rises in the air nearly
ten thousand feet above the level of the
sea, Sunday last.
The start was made from the city early
IN the morning and route was chosen py
way of Waterfall canon. AT the waterfall
an ascent wss made over a dangerous pre-
cipice of over three hundred feet almost
perpendicular in the air. The place was
passed over safely when the clouds began
TO hug the ragged edges OF the mountains
closely, and in the midst OF the SOUNDS OF
thunder and the torrents OF descenaing
rain the party became separated oy seeking
shelter beneath overhanging rocks, caves
and lone miners cabin. Presently the
clouds showed clearing and the journey
was continued over the rocks and into the
wet weeds and other growing vegetation
by the separated factions. each OF whom
began the endeavor to reach the desrina-
ton first, by following deceiving and un-
broken trails.
Shortly after o'clock in the afternoon
the first of the party arrived at the o6ser-
vatory station after the long
and fatiging task OF Climb
ing, Miss Kate Schroeder winning
the distinction CT being the champion OF
the day. About two hours later the pal
ance of the mountaineers-eighti IN number
reached the place, fully realizing the lacb
that they were not superiors when IL comes
TO climbing The high mount o. Wasatch.
1t was after O'Clock before the descent
was begun, and on having arrived al the
great falls several thousand feet below,
the shades of night had come, and only Dy
the light of torches secured from an empty
miners cabin was it possible to go down
the deep creyice at the falls. The bottom
was reached in safety only TO be wondered
at that some serious accident did not nap
pen TO some members of the party while
scaling the treacherous looking rocks.
The mouth of the canon was reached at
midnight. And imagine the appearance OF
q tired and fatigued crowd when 1t was
found that the conveyance which they
hoped to find awaiting them there mad
also became tired and left. Nothing else
could be done but to send IN the city Tor
teams enough to carry all to their homes.
