E CONNER,S DEATH.

Next to Brigham Young himself. Gen.
Patrick f Conner, who has Just died in
Salt Lake, was. in the early sixties, the
most noted figure in Utah. 1t was he
who iu 1861 selected the site and built
Fort Douglas, which, from its position,
commanded the Mormon citadel. The
feeling between the Mormons and the
United States soldiers was intensely bit
ter. In Conner they met a doughty aud
audacious antagonist, and TO the threat
that neither he nor his troops would be
permitted to cross the Jordan he replied
that he would make the passage thoush
hell yawued' before him. He was as
good as his word.
The credit of opening the mines OF
Utah belongs to Gen. Conner. Mining
was opposed to the policy of Brigham
Young. He saw the evil effects Of
tremendous mining excitement in the
California experience of lS49 and by ex-
ample and precept enforced the doctrine
that through agriculture and collateral
industries alone could the church hope to
increase Its prestige aud maintain its com
pact aud effective organization. For over
a quarter of a century after the arrival of
the Mormons no mining was done in
Utah. The work inaugurated by Gen.
Conner has since added immensely to the
wealth and importance of Utah.
Gen. Conner was II wears old. Though
Of late years he has not been a potential
factor in the development of the territory,
still his record in the early days will en-
sure him a conspicuous place in the history

well, I tell you what has struck me
most" said Mr.. G. E. Dickinson. 1T is
the large and magnificent houses in sew
eral of our great cities built by million
aires and the small amount of real COM
fort or happiness which the millionaires
seem to get out of them. Dickens, in
one of his novels, portrays with vivid
touch the real life of one of the city
men whose magnificent mansion was the
talk of the town. 1t has often occurred
to me that there are many New York
millionaires whose peace of mind is no
greater than that of the character whom
he sets down.
Somehow there seems to hang over n
number of these stately mansions a
shadow of gloom. In the west it is the
same. Some of those great houses look
as deserted as if the men who built them
and every relative had been forgotten
and the houses were the only reminders
that they once existed. To tell the truth,
there is too much rush, 1 believe, over
the making of money to enjoy the sup
posed happiness which it brings."-St.
Louis Globe-Democrat.

SAGE,S CARD.

Russell Sage has issued a card in which
he says that he has received over 1000
letters and kilograms congratulating him
upon his escape from death by the recent
explosion of a dynamite bomb in his
office. He says among other things: Il
regard this expression as evidence Of a
higher and nobler manhood and woman
hood, whose sympathy is as broad as tie
universe. The lesson | leave to the pull
pit, the press, to congress aud the states
il the Union, and to the courts,
the great keystone oil law and
order and union and liberty.
Further | beg to add that we should in
crease our faith, our love, our hope, our
trust in the God that created us. the God
Of our salvation and redemption.
Mr.. Sage has been all his lite a money
grubber pure and simple. lie has denotd
all his time, his energy and his ingenuity
to the pursuit of the almighty dollar. The
accumulation Of wealth has been the sole
am and aspiration of his long career. 1t
is too much TO think that the taking off
of such q man, who has been for years
selfshly bound up in his W affairs,
should necessarily be regarded as a
national calamity or a fit subject for uni
versal sorrow.

seen on Brenham's streets. 1t was a
horseman gayly decorated with ribbons

bons were hung in clusters and ~festoons
all over the rider and horse. The horses
ears and forehead were covered with n
sort of cap in which were stuck feathers
of bright c%olors, surrounded with rosettes
and knots of ribbons.

Serving things hot, too, goes a long
way; if cooks could only be made to
realize that hot food is very rarely criti-
cised they would be more careful in this
respect. An experienced h~ousekeeper
said the other day, 1.-THE real reason that
my things are so much liked is not that
they are one bit nicer than any n
~else's, but I always see that each dish is
served SC piping hot that there is no
chance for much criticism of the flavor"

The interview with State Senator
Woodruff OF Fremont county, published
10 the Omaha Bee, is in some respects a
most remarkable production. We will
allude to but one feature of 1t. Then,
too, > said the senator, the cattlemen
invite piracy BY the loose manner in which
they take care Of their stock They hire
a lot of men for about two or three
months in the spring and summer for
ROUNDUP work and then discharge them
and let the cattle care Tor themselves for
the rest of the year. The COWBOYS have
to live when not employed and with an
educated branding iron axe a conmon
prey of the calves and mavericks in the
herds of their whilom employers
And the senator IL perfectly willing to
leave the impression that if he does not
actually commend he cannot find it in his
heart to disapprove such practices. If
every man who was discharged by an
employer who had no further use Tor his
services should adopt thievery as 1 means
not only of gaming a livelihood but secur,
Ing a competence, the Dark Ages would
soou again be upon us.
Wyomiug's reputation Is liable to suffer
less from the reports of range thievery
than 1t is from the oblique moral view
of the practice entertained and promul-
gated BY the state senator from Fremont
county.

Value of Amber During the Roman EmpIr,

FHTut Ut THU DurIHK Ute HUmHH EHpTTo
In such repute was amber in Rome in
the time of the historian Pliny that he
remarks sarcastically, 1.-THE price of a
small figure in it, however diminutive,
exceeds that of a living healthy slave"
He observes also, True it is that a col
lar of amber beads worn about the necks
of young infants is a singular preserva-
tive against secret poison and a counter
charm for witchcraft and sorceries." He
says further that as an article of per-
sonal ornamentation amber was used to
produce limitations of precious stones by
artificial staining, a use to which it was
peculiarly adapted owing to its brilliant
luster, combined with the ease with
which it could be worked and polished.

The only Independent free-trade

five years old. and her baby brother.

identity the same number of weeks.
As is customary under such circum

listened with gloomy silpnce when
her mother endeavOred to arouse her
interest and satisfy her curiosity by
telling her that the little boy had

bush. where the good fairies hail
placed him. Her father even showed
her the hush. behind the harm. where
the child had been discovered.

In the orchard. She had taken one
OF the young birds. while It was still
in q state Of nudity. and brought It
into the house. but Mrs. DrnUing
had made her take II back to the
nest and restore 1t to its parent. She
had committed that lesson faithfully
to heart.

appeared. Luckily babies of that
age are soon missed, ami rs he was
