The Secretary read the dispatches

BIGAMY OR QuADRIeAMYp
Charles Lynes. Muchly Married, 10
Likely to Have Trouble.

Likely to Have Trouble.
Mrs. Charles Lynes applied to Prose-
cutting Attorney Mcknight, yesterday,
for warrant for the arrest of her hus-
band. She claims that they were wed
in November, and that after all the
honey had been extracted from their
honeymoon, Charles discovered that
her bridal dover was not as large as he
had expected. He thereupon cese rted
her and returned to another wife of
longer standing, to whom he was mar
ried IN 1887. The latest wife charges
her husband with bigamy. and proposes
to prosecute him. Mr.. Mcknight will
not issue the warrant until he ascer-
tains more of the facts. Further in
vestigation may show that Lynes is
guilty OF trigsmy or even quadrigamy.

proprietor of II Progresso Halo-Amcr-
icdf1o, and he has devoted himself to it
ever since with the result that he now
has $1,000 with which to begin the
work.
Competition for the work was opened
in Italy under the auspices OF Sig.
Crispi Ohon PREMIER and the Italian
government. A jury of eminent artists
and sculptors was chosen to Judge the
merits of the designs presented. They
have selected Gaitano Russo's design.
The picture shows the statue as it will
look when completed. The figure is
ID feet high, the shaft and pedestal GO
feet high and with heavy stone founda-
tion the top of the statue will be at
least "a feet from the ground.
1t will be of marble, including the
pedestal. The base will be about
thirty-six feet square. At the foot Of
the circular marble shaft will be four
tigures-one representing a Spaniard,
another an American, another an Ital-
ian. and the fourth q winged genie. 1t
will be made in Italy. and will proba-
bly, be sent from there the early part
of next year. The sculptor will ac-
company it to superintend the work of
erecting it. The statue will be ready
for unwilling on Oct. II, 1892. Where
it is to stand has not yet been deter
mined.
The total cost of the statue and ped
estal will probably be about 49,, OOo.
The sculptor is doing the work free.
The money needed to complete the
statue and put it in place will be con-
tributed by American Italians. A
committee of 1000 italian citizens of
New York have volunteered to raise
so each, and more than nine hundred
have already given the money. This
is in addition to the $1,000 previously
raised. Subscriptions have come in
from all over the United States, and
Mr.. Barsotti says that he has received
a subscription OF $37 from an American
italian in Venezuela. The monument
will be given to the city.

Tho old Mormon temple, which has
looked down from its commanding
height for nearly sixty years upon kirt-
land, one Of the quaintest and most
historical villages in NorthegA Ohio.
will not be carted away to form one Of

has been proposed, II the people Of tho
Buckeye town are not altogether pow
erless In the matter. It is . landmark
they win not willingly part with, al
though but . few Of them have my
thing in common with the strange peo-
pie who built it.
The temple is . great point Of at
traction. It stands on q high hill a
little to the west OF the river, and is
built Of stone. 1t il about eighty feet
long and sixty broad. The walls are
fifty feet high and ere of = yellowish
tiuge. On the front Of the building
one sees this inscription: Blouse OF
the Lord, Built by the Church of
Christ in 1884" The interior Of the
temple is unlike that Of any other place
of worship in the country. aud prob
ably its like has no existence outside OF
Mormon cities. Leading from the yes
tibulo are two doors that open into
separate aisles, one for the men and
the other for the women.
Two Latin inscriptions are still
plainly visible, but these attract less
attention than the odd arrangement of
pcws. At either end Of the assembly
room is 3 pulpit, built up in four tiers,
where the twelve priests sat. On the
front OF the pulpit are letters denoting
the titles of the high priests. The sec
ond story is practically . repetition Of
the first, aud above this is the old Nor
man school room. Here are TO be seen
the very blackboards upon which
Prophet Smith is said to have traced
letters for the children of new con-
verts. It is proper to state, however,
that no writing Of the prophets is now
visible.
The temple tower rises far above the
massive walls, and is visible for miles
around in all directions. From the
shapely dome q magnificent Wow Of q
grand country is obtained. Farm
houses to the west, south and east APP

this section Of the country, but already
the white sails, some scarcely visible
from the dome of the temple, show that
lake commerce has begun. The Latter
Day Saints are confident that Kirkland
will again become the Zion it was q
half century ago. The ground upon
which the temple stands is to them as
holy as earth ever gets to be, even in
the eyes Of people of stranger belief.
It is still in the hands Of the Mormon
church, or rather in the hands Of q de-
scendant of Joseph Smith. It is en-

Dropping OF to one side the crafty
old tar would wait until the hand-me.
down sailor had slung his hammock.
Nine times out Of ten it was . rickety,
bungling, lopsided job that would make
sailors heart ache. In spite of his
bigotery the lubber conld see that some-
thing was wrong, but he didn't know
what it was. This was where Star.

for fifty cents. But ] rudely repulsed
him and slung the hammock myself.

and burst into tears. With one wild
