A Norwich, Conn, blacksmith, act
ing under the advice of a local veterin-
airy surgeon, chloroformed refractory
horse in order to shoe him. The horse
yielded reluctantly to the influence of
the anasthetic, but was finally brought
completely under its power, and the
shoeing process was accomplished with
great ease. A few days later the horse
began to droop, then was attacked with
lockiaw and died in very short time.
Here is schoolboy's definition of
eternity: when our ships all come
in; when the sea gives up her dead;
when Father Time hangs up his scythe;
when the heavens are rolled up like a
scroll; when Gabriel blows the rams
horn; when the solar system collapses;
when we find the lost Charlie Ross and
the man who struck Billy Patterson,
when johnny gets his Gun: when soci-
ETY. becomes pure. and after the bali Is
over'-then will be eternity"

The Poor German Novel.

While the number of second and third
rate novels yearly increases those that
deserve to be labeled AL are as I'm.
doubleday on the wane. The pitiable
state Of the German book market is
partly answerable for this result, since
1t has driven some of the ablest contem-
porary novelists, such as Sudermann.
Gerhardt, Hauptmann and Voss. to
turn aside from their original and OBJ
vious vocation in order to write indif-
ferent dramas because these prove to
be more remunerative than flrst-class
novels. Veteran standard authors like
Freytag, Dahn and Spielhagen, vino
have been before the public for three
or more decenniums, seem to labor un-
der the delusion that whatever they
now write must necessarily be worth
reading and that Il writer who has
once achieved fame has nothing further
to do in order to keep it up than TO 90

BAPTISM FOR THE DEAD.
One of the Curious Customs Peculiar to the
Mormon Church.

-~-~~AOAA
1.-THE people of the east who imagine
that the members of the Mormon church
have given up q single iota of the tenets
and practices of their belief are wide Of
the mark, " said Robert e. Yewell of Og-
den. While polygamy is not INDUCED
IN as openly as heretofore, it nevertheless
Hourishes all over the territory and the
priesthood of the Mormon church has just
as tenacious fsold upon the people There
are 80, 900 men enrolled in the priesthood
in Utah, and each ono of them has def
mite duties to perform. Old President
Woodruff, who is nearly 70 years old and
nearing his end despite his rugged appear
ance, is religious enthusiast, who is i'm
plicit in his faith and devotes himself to
its spiritual advancement, Out under the
lead of his undoubted successor, George @.
Cannon, who was for many years the del.
egate from Utah in congress and who is
easily the ablest man in the Mormon
church, you will find that the followers of
Joseph Smith will resume as autocratic a
sway as they ever enjoyed in the days Of
Brigham Young. Cannon knows every
detail Of the church and will use his
knowledge to advance its interests and his
own ambition in every direction. DuSing
Un0 pASC low years ETeSlQenT w OOQrI1u has
devoted most of his time to being baptized
You SEQ one of the most curious customs
of the Mormon church is baptism for the
dead.
The Mornons believe that if one Of
their saints assumes the name and goes
through the ceremony of immersion for a
dead relative who passed away before the
Angel Moroni appeared to Joseph Smith
and gave the world an opportunity to en-
JOY the blessings Of the new dispensation
the soul of the deceased in question will
be made spotless in its spiritual abode and
relieved from any blemish that might
have hitherto interfered with enjoyment
OF heavenly happiness. President Wood
ruff has been baptized for no less than
5000 of these dead relatives, and in
his own person has been immersed as a
proxy for every president of the United
States who died before Smith had his
alleged interview with the angel that l
mentioned just now. There are 900 600
Mormcns in Utah now, and while the
saints bought large tracts of land in Mex
leo several years ago, to which their fol-
lowers might flee in the evil days to come
they have no more idea of giving up their
grasp on Utah than have of jumping aff
the Washington monument. ~ Washing

or six to WORK in at one time, and very
high, affording an abundance of pure
air. In one corner is sink, with run

by an ingenious arrangement. an incan-
descent lamp is so placed in box as to
not only throw ruby light on the
developing sink, but also along the side
of the room where is commodous table
for changing plates. The trays and tubs
are all of hard rubber, and each piece
of apparatus has place of it's own, so
that the whole room presents very neat
appearance. The club propose several
trips during the summer, and all for
making views and, during the winter
will arrange practical talks on photog-

were large horses, and their momentum
was something terrible to think of. Ev-

A Good Birthday Present.

Mr.. Charles P. Costello. the genial head
clerk of the Preble house, is held no less in
the esteem of the employees than the
travelling public, who frequent the'well
known hostelry. Yesterday being his birth
day anniversary, the employees resolved to
mark the occasion in creditable manner.
Shortly after dinner, Head Waiter Lilly
stepped forward in their behalf, and in a
few appropriate remarks presented him
with an elegant diamond ring, as a birth
day present. Mr.. Costello was SO over
whelmed with surprise that it was some
minutes before he was able to respond
which he did in terms that indicated his ap.
probation of the gift. By his courteous dis
position Charles has won hosts of friends
who wish him success through life as well
as many anniversaries.
