Two years ago the Iowa district
synod asked the General synod of
the Luther IN church to pass ON the
question of marriage and divorce.
The memorial was referred to n
committee at the sessions of the
general synod held in Canton. Ohio,
last week, which reported that the
marriage service by ministry can be
properly given only under the con
ditions set forth in Divine law :;
that the Divine law allows no disso-
luton OF the marriage bonds except
for adultry and consequently remar-
riage of persons divorced on other
grounds is not permitted.

LYcURGUs VINEYARD, who returned
to Boise City from Haley last Thurs
day, tells the Statesman the mining
outlook in that vicinity is very
gloomy. Two or three of the princi-
pal mines are still working under a
sliding scale Of wages, which the
miners very sensibly accepted. The
Red Elephant, of Which G. V. Bry-
an is manager, has an agreement
with the men by which they are to
receive $3.50 day when silver is 81
cents or over, 50 when between so
and IS cents, $3.50 when the price of
the white metal is anywhere be-
tween 70 and 80 cents, and 81 be-
tween so and 70 cents. Should sill
yer fall below so cents the mines
are to be closed down. The Red
Cloud, of which Lyttleton Price is
superintendent, has similar arrange
ment with the miners.

BOISE DEMocRAr: The steam

Ridsnbaugh canal was tied up last
Thursday about a mile above the de-
pot and will not be used again until
after the irrigation season shall have

the flow of water which caused much
complaint among ranchers. 1t has

McGuffin, just down from Long val
ley, says that two weeks ago yester-
day a little child of j. Welch was
drowned in Big creek. 1t was but
four years of age and wandering away
from the house it was supposed that
in playing along the stream it had
fallen in. The body foated down
about 100 yards and lodged in a
drift, where it was found four days
later.

The Succession Texas Orator.

81 heard a political speech down
in Texas last fall" said A. R. Gaines
of GAINESVILLE, IN that State, to a re-
porter of the Washington Post, shat
would have impressed our eastern
critics with the belief that all the De-
pews, Choates and Tom Reeds are
not born east of the Mississippi. l
was in the Northern Rio Grande
country, a wild, sparsely settled Sec
ton of the State, and ran into little
town of about 200 people. There
was to be a grand political rally and
joint debate. The first speaker was
fair talker, a Populist. He gave us
an hour or so of talk on oppression,
monopoly, etc., and then a Democrat
took the platform. He knew no sta
tistics; he scorned figures, facts and
arguments. He rolled up his sleeves,
pulled off his hat and began hammer
ing with his fists.
Gentlemen of the great State of
Texas, are you aware of who's been
talkin' slush about the greatest party
ever God created bein' in cahoots
with robbers en- thieves en- such fur
one solid hour? An outlaw frum

George Washington; that the Father
of his Kentry kept slaughter house
in the San Pecos Valley, and would
then turn right round, go to Mt. Yer
non and dig up his bones an use 'em
fur fertilizers. An his party? Why
gentlemen of the great State of Tex
as, that little handful of one-gutted
bellyachers called Populists no more

Eighty people were killed and 9TH
ers fatally injured by cyclone that
started at Quimby, Iowa, and ended
at Pomeroy, in that State, on the
night of the 7th. At the latter place
forty EIGHT were killed, and over los
blocks of residences demolished.
An immense amount of damage was
also done to crops. A year old babe
was found on the outskirts of the ruins
of a town, entirely Invested of cloth
ing, but uninjured. Many of the
dead were found long distances from
their residences. Standing houses
had boards driven through them by
the force of the wind. Trees in the
path of the storm were stripped even
of their bark. Some of the killed
were literally torn in two. Others
had pieces of boards thrust through
them, their heads smashed and limbs
torn off, and some were so badly dis
figured they could be recognized only
| by clothing OF some tripket.

wo.derrul Feat. Of Strength.

At New York the other day San
dow, the strong man, gave an exhibit
ton of the wonderful strength which
he possesses. His FIRST feat was with
huge dumbbells, which he played with
as a boy does with bits of stick. Then
a still larger dumbbell was brought
on by four men, and this he lifted
with one hand and held it high above
his head. When he replaced it on
the ground the two bulbs were opened
and man stepped from each. Then
this giant made bridge of himself,
resting on his hands and feet. A
platform was put on him and two
fullgrown horses and a pony were
driven upon it. He supported their
weight with apparent ease. After
the performance he spoke moderate
ly about his wonderful strength. 1t
is a natural gift, and he has never
trained or cultivated it.

JUDGE GEORGE BRIzEE, an old
newspaper man and lawyer, who has
been at work for several years in the

editorial staff of a number of other
papers of the State, died last Sunday
morning, at 6 o'clock, of heart dis
ease, at his home in Boise, after an
illness of only two or three hours. He
leaves a wife, but no children. The
Judge was among the ablest writers
in the State. He was pioneer OF
