THREE ORDERS NAMED

] WASHINGTON, Dec. -MonsiQnor Sa tolli, the apostolic delegate, says that any information concerning the recent letter to Bishop Mcdonnell affecting secret societies must come from the bishop. The delegate says his only of flee in the matter was to transmit the ! communication exactly as it came from | Rome and that it involved no action ol ruling oD bis part. He was asked if the ban of the church Nas to be placed or other secret secreS societies than the Knights of Pythias, Odd Fellows and Sons of Temperance. but he declined | give any information as to how spsc eff | societies were affected or what punish ment would be visited upon their indi. vidual members in case they continued their membership. A high ecclesiastical authority outside of the delegation stat. ed it was his understanding that the action of the church was against secret societies in general rather than 8 speci- fic society being designated.

The Ways of the Young.

Whsn the course of true love does not run smooth, it is more than certain that things are gong to turn out wrong. This was the case with two prominent young gentlemen lsst night.
 Oae loved a maiden, that ths other loved too; but the ardent affections of one of the swain not only won the affections of the lady in demand but her genial nature as well.
 The mamma, might be an inconsider- able figure. but the daughter is vident- ly awaiting ths fstic onslaught which is imminent, and, while one says he loves her, and the other doesn't care the man who wanted to Egbt-it hardly seems probable than an exhibition will take place.
 The ways the young are frolioksome.

Heavy Taxes Paid.

Shortly after noon last Thursday, Stslon Agent Dresser and Express Agent Townsend took a good sized sack be- tween them and carried it to the office of County Treasurer. When that official became satisfied that the sack con tained what WAS represented he wrote out a receipt for the sum of s19, 1Sl .91 in full for taxes due the county of Yuma from the Southern Pacific Railroad for 1891. Tn, re were In the sack 600 SEQ pieces 400 Sl0 pieces and GOO s5 pieces, besides some silver. Its weight was Fl 40 pounds. The amount was the smallest paid by the company since the road was built through the untry, hereto fore ranging from S24 ,000 10 S32,000.

A pound svoirdupois of pure gold is worth within few cents of S302 of gold coin S272 An avoirdupois und is 7000 troy grains, a troy pound being 576O grains.

A Colorado Jury Composed of American
Protective Association.
DENVER, Colo, March 23.-For the
fret time in the history of the courts
of Colorado the question of religious
differences hae been raised. In the
ease of Tim Drew and James Burns,
charged with robbery, Attorney Tom
Ward, tor the defense, challenged q
juror because he was member of the
Amei lean Protective association. The
challenge was overruled. He then
challenged the entire jury and found
that II out of the IL were members OF
this association. The attorney at once
asked for a new veDier and that the
coronor's office have charge of the
jury, on the ground that Sheriff Bur-
chnall was predjudiced against the
defendants because they were Catho-
lies. One of the jurors, when leaving
the courtroom, shouted: "Hurrah for
the American Protective association"
