MARBLE CANYON.

A River Whose Bod II Three thousand
Feet Below the Plain.
We took up our march for the Colo
rado river at Lees Ferry, 20 named
from John D. Lee, ono of the destroy.
Ing angels executed by tho United
States for completely in the Mountain
Meadow massacre. Here we saw tho
most remarkable river in the world,
writes q correspondent In the Indianap-
oils Sentinel. Imagine yourself upon .
broad, white plain; you can hear dull,
distant roar; you can SEQ nothing save
the mountains and the waving grass;
you 60 on and the noise gets more dis
tinct, until You can hear it apparently
beneath your feet.
All at once You see few feet from
you fssure, which at FIRST glance looks
to be scarcely twenty feet wide. You eau
tiously crawl up and look down, down
for three thousand feet. There is the riv-
er, white torrent, surging against its
perpendicular marble sides. You won
der, having walked to within fifty feet
Of that chasm without seeing it. You
look at it flowing, and trace its course
directly towards those mountains, yet
they do not stop It; it goes through
them, separating the Budskin from the
San Francisco range, and the small d.
viding line looks like the cut of knife
from the top to the bottom. Here is
where the canyon reaches its greatest
depth, being little over q mile from
the top to the water.

An Humbled yizior,

A traveller in Morocco tells, In "The
Land of an African Sultan" the follow
ing story: '"The Sultan, not long ago,
discovered that one of his viziers was
becoming too powerful. He therefore
summoned him to tea, and compliment
ed him on his great wealth. The vizier,
becoming vain, boasted of the number
OF his houses, horses, wives, and slaves,
and the Sultan rebuked him, saying
that he was too rich and thought too
much of himself. To show the man ex-
actly what he was worth, his Majesty
had him taken by soldiers to the slave
market, where he was put up for sale,
and received only one bid Of eightpence.
HA was then taken back to the Sultan,
who ssid to him: Now you know your
proper value-eightpence. Go home
and ponder over it. When the man
reached home, however, he found that
nearly I'll his property had been taken
sway BY order Of the sultan. Only one
amall residence. one wife, one hosse,
- ono slave had bssa left him"

L. A. Galliet returned from his visit
to relatives at Portsmouth.
Protracted meeting began at the U. B.
Church Friday night. 1t will continue
at least until the 1st of February.
The way the boys gather at the church
door as soon as church services close
and remain there, preventing those
wishing to pass out from doing so, has
become nuisance. The attention of
the sexton has been called to it and NO
doubt stop will be had.
G. w. Badgley and son spent Satur-

FIR. Ellison and H. B. Galliets were

aged man, member of the U. B. Church
and kind father. The relatives of each
have the sympathies of the writer.

The difference Between Knit and Woven
(3OOdR.

The Difference Between Knit and woven
Goods.
Stri ,tly speaking, stockinet is not Q
CLOTH for it is not woven fabric, but q
knitted texture. by a process OF knit
ting, and not by weaving, the individ-
ual threads of which a stoclsinet fabric
is composed, are, says the Dry-Goods
Chronicle, interlaced into one regular
texture. The work is performed in a
kind of frame or loom, in which the
yarns are arranged in parallel order, at
uniform distances apart, as in ordinary
weaving. OF course, the machine is
automatic in its movements and capa-
BILE of producing great length of cloth
in a very short time. The fabric thus
formed is ornamented with fine
ribbed pattern, similar in character to
that seen in common knit goods. This
article generally handles soft, full and
elastic, but lacks those valuable charac-
teristics of strength and firmness Of
texture or make which obtain in q
woven cloth proper"
The difference between the structure
of this fabric and that resulting from
weaving warp and weft yarns together
may be illustrated as follows: Take .
sample Of stockinet cloth and try to
withdraw thread and what Is the re-
suit? The whole construction IL un-
raveled. Next submit loom product
to q similar examination and 1t will be
found that II longitudinal or warp
thread is removed the transverse or
weft thread will remain, while, on the
other hand, If the latter are withdrawn
the warp threads will, although the
texture may be partly destroyed, still
remain, to certain extent, undis-
turbed. Again, the manner in which .
knitted fabric is constructed limits the
designer to one class of weave effects
these being of q stockinet character
whereas the principles of weaving are
of such description as to admit Of un-
limited change or variation in design.
