Earth's Nearest NeIghbor.

Years ago it was supposed that Sirius
was nearer the earth than any other
star, and its light required over three
years TO reach us. Now. however,
Alpha Centauri, a comparatively insig-
nificant star Of the southern heavens, is
known TO be our nearest neighbor, and
Sirius is so far removed that the human
mind fails to grasp the distance wher
expressed in miles.
The fact that light requires from
seventeen to twenty years TO the
space between our little earth and this
giant orb is scarcely more easy { COM
prehend. If one would appreciate the
m~agnificence of this most brilliant of
sur he should not think it as near, but
rather let his mind make the vain at
tempt TO follow a ray of light thither
as it travels on, ~unwearied, day and
night, at the rate of $50, 900 miles a sec
ond for twenty ears.-Boston Herald.

ISDIAN

Word now comes from Chamber
lain, 5. D.. that the Sioux Indians
who ceded about eleven million acre
Of land TO the government about
eighteen months ago are now kicking
most heartily at receiving a portion OF
the quid pro quo IN the shape of plows'
harroNs, cows. horses and wagons, in-
stead of good. hard cash. As the
simon pure barbarian knows not the
use Of money, and is essentially a
creature of trade and arter, il mu I
be presumed that this desire for the
coined and printed currency OF the
realm evinced by him Is an evidence
II the march Of civilization into his
barbaric life and surroundings. II a
white man sells land be generally sells
il for money, or II in trade, the exac
plumber that he consents to receive is
specified. No white man would sell
on a cash basis and receive ever the
most desirable merchants disc at a value
put upon it by the purchaser OF the
land: therefore, the fact that the
sioux Indians refuse to receive plOws,
hsrrows, etc, in payment, must be re-
gsrded a. an eyiderce that they have
no use for them. 1t they were poor,
they would doubtless be glad - take
these useful articles Of labor, and with
them exc u "A precariDus living for
themselves and familie-, much as the
roor white man in d kota has done
for many years past. But, bless you
these Indians don't hl ve to work; they
never did have TO to begin with, and
with several million lollars coming 70
them from tlHs patei lal and benidcent

sell when that IL exhausted, what Use
have they got for flows and hsrroWs
and such like. They should have the
mOrey paid to them in weekly in
stallments, and then if this govern =
ment would follow the example set by
the English government in dealing
with the Maoris, and set up a dispen-
sary for hrewater every half mile
along the line Of the reservation, the
Indian question would oon cease 10
be a burden TO the nation. We believe
that this same policy was suggested
years ago by General Sully. We do
NOT claim originality. but it has our
hearty Endorsement.

THE HOLY THORN OF GLASTONBURY
An Account Of a Tree Which Form-ay
Was said to Grow In England.

An Account of a Tree which Form-r,y
Was said to Grow In England.
The legend of the holy thorn of Glas
tonbury is very old, and, until very re-
cent times, was quite generally believed
in, in spite of its absurdities. The orig
inal legend was that st. Joseph Of Ari-
mathea landed not far from Glaston-
bury, England, and that he and his
companions went to a hill neal the
town and there rested for a few hours.
Upon making the halt st. Joseph is
said to have thrust his staff, adry haw-
thorn stick, into the ground, and hat
il grew and blossomed, being constant
ly in bud or full bloom.
The first account of this miraculous
tree found in print bears date of 1722.
This states that the tree had a double
trunk in the days of Queen Elizabeth,
but that during her reign a Puritan,
taking offense at the trees observance
of Christmas for it is said TO always
bloom, no odds how cold the weather,
on Jan. 6, "Old Christmas'D, hewed
down the largest of the trunks. For
this act Of Dissertation the Puritan was
punished by accidentally cutting one If
his legs and by the loss.of one eye,
which was injured by a chip from the
sacred thorn.
Although the tree had been felled to
the ground, it still adhered 10 the stump
by a bit of bark, and for thirty years
the fallen part continued TO flourish
Just as the standing branch did, and
10 always bloom at Christmas time.
Finally the trunk, which remained
standing, was cut down 10y a military
saint in the time of King Charles !, and
after that time the people of the vicinity
did a thriving business in the sale Of
young shoots that sprang up at the base
of the sacred tree.
For a century or more thorn trees
continued TO be shown in that neigh
borhood, each claiming TO be the main
shoot Of the original Glastonbury thorn.
There is a curious story told in a
British magazine of January, 1853.
The change of the calendar from old TO
new style had just been made. Anun-
Der of people visited the tree on Christ
mas day, new style, but it showed no
signs of blooming. Therefore it was
watched on Jan. 6, the Christmas of
old style, when it was seen TO bloom as
usual.
In a work on British plants and trees,
published in ISIS, l find the following
in regard to the winter blooming thorn
tree Of Glastonbury; 1T does not now
grow within the Abbey of Glastonbury,
but in a lane beyond the churchyard
on the other side Of the street, by the
side of a pit. 1t appears to be a very
old tree. 1t has been reported TO have
ne thorns, but that l found to be a
mistake. 1t has them, like other haw-
thorns, but which also in large trees
are but few. 1t blossoms twice a year.
The winter blooms, which are individ-
ually about the size of a sixpence, ap-
pear about Christmas, or sooner if the
weather be severe. st. Louis Re

done
professional courtesy of course prevents
General MERRITT from going the full
length of expressing his thought that Gen
eral MILES, who is largely responsible for
the present phase of the Indian question,
has the Presidential bee in his bonnet.
Yet that fact has been apparent to most
observers of the situation ever since Gen :
eral MILES began to make political
capital out of the "ghost dance" When
the sage MILES declared that the Mormons
were in some way responsible for the "ghost
dance' OF the Indians, he made a spectacle

to observe that the knowing ones smile at
the mention of the generals name inst at
this time. The general is evidently anxious
to distinguish himself by exterminating a

1T is greatly TO be regretted that he has
now an opportunity to gain little cheap
glory in that kind of mischief.

USEFUL BENEFICENCE

The University of Deseret has lust been
the recipient of valuable addition to its
already extensive library. Mr.. e p
AUSTIN, the entomologist and well-known
mathematical astronomer has placed his
valuable collection of scientific books
amounting to more than six hundred VOL
umes, with those of the university. This
will add much to the convenience and
utility of the general library as source of
reference and special study.
Mr.. AUSTIN has long devoted himself To
the special study of the Colcoptera, and was
for number of years president of the
chronological society Of Boston, Mass. He
is now resident of this city, where he is
engaged in preparing for the general gov
eminent at Washington, its annual Amsyt-
can Ephcmeris and Nautical Almanac, work
on which he has been employed annually
for many years.
Gifts of this character deservedly en-.
title the givers to the high praise that is
always accorded them by an appreciative
public. In no other way can man better
aid the public than by contributions to the
public libraries. Many man could have
lefta cherished name by founding a public
library or by donating literally to one
already established, but men generally en-.
deavor to do good with their means in WAYS
that are much less certain of success. II is
gratifying to record the self denial of q
scientist in placing in the hands of the gen.
eral public his collection Of scientific works,

general were left alone. Just as the tree can be
traoe1 from its smallest bran III to its root, so
can the indian troubles be traced to the starya-
ton and ms, cry of the Indians.
Such treatment as this is enough to make
one exclaim, to paraphrase the immortal
words of PITT IN relation to the oppression
OF the Americans: ''If were an Indian as
am white man, while an unscrupulous
white man lived to Cypress an Indian, 1
never would lay down my arms, no never!
No never!'
What is the remedya Honest and gener
Gus dealing; that's all that is needed. A
strict observance of those obligations nomi-
mated In the bond of agreement. Then, if
giving way to savage instinct and restless
ness, the Indians break the pledges on their
part there will be some justice On our side
when we compel them to keep faith.
