per. He had been accustomed to sue
ueed In all that he undertook. lie
swore in his heart that he would not
fail in this if human effort and human
perseverance could render his suit
successful.
He called on John Terrier that night
and many times again until his face
was a familiar one at the farmhouse.
John, cooped up in the valley and alb
sorbed in his work, had little chance
Of learning the news of the outside
world during the last twelve years.
All this Jefferson Hope was able to
tell him, and in a style which interest
ed Lucy as well as her father. He
had been a pioneer in California. and
could narrate many a strange tale of
fortunes made and fortunes lost in
those wild, halcyon days. He had been
a scout, too, and trapper, a silver eX-
plorer, and q ranchman. Wherever
stirring adventures were to be had,
Jefferson Hope had been there in
search of them. He soon became a
favorite with the old farmer, who
spoke eloquently of his virtues. On
such occasions Lucy was silent, but
her blushing cheek and her bright,
happy eyes showed only too clearly
that her young heart was no longer
her own. Her honest father may not
have observed these symptoms, but
they were asuredly not thrown away
upon the man who had won her afec-
lions.
1t was q summer evening when he
came galloping down the road and
pulled up at the gate. She was at the
doorway and came down to meet him.
He threw the bride over the fence
and strobe up the pathway.
II am off, Lucy" he said, taking her
two hands in his and gazing tenderly
down into her face; Il won't ask you to
come with me now, but will you be
ready to come hen I am here again"
And when will that be?" she asked,
blushing and laughing.
"A couple of months at the outside.
I will come and claim you then, my
darling. There's no one who can stand
between u.s."
'And how about fatherY" she asked.
''He has given his consent, provided
we get these mines working all right
I have no fear on that head"
"Oh, well! of course, if you and IA
ther have arranged it al, there's no
more to be said she whispered, and
with her cheek against his broad
breast.

my own darling good-by. In two
months you shall see me-"
He tore himself away from her as he
spoke, and, f1inging himself upon his
horse, galloped furiously away, never
even looking round, as though afraid
that his resolution might fail him if
he took one glance at what he was
leaving. She stood at the gate gazing
after him until he vanished from her
sight. Then she walked back into the
house the happiest girl in all Utah.

this morning, in the beautiful grove that

Cold Wave in Diamonds.

A while ago it was asserted that the

the latter trade in contrast with the

claimed that the statistical average OF
maria ges is threatened with diminutlon

better testimony than is yet offered to
convince anybody of this. Bicycling is

CONSTANTlNOPLE UNEASY.
Porte Informed that Lord Salisbury
Has Given What Amounts to
an Ultimatun.

Constantiucnle, Sept. At is officially
announced here that Rustem Pasha,
Turkish ambassador to England, has
telegraphed to the foreign minister that
he has had an interview relative to the
Armenian question with Lord Salisbury,
whom he had assured that the sublime
porte is not opposed to the reforms pro-
posed by the powers signatory to the
treaty of Berlin, but that Turkey could
not permit control of Armenia by an in
ternational commission. Lord Salisbury
replied that under the circumstances it
would be useless to continue the inter-
view If, he said, the Porte persisted in
it's refusal, the powers will undertake the
suggested reforms and rest satisfied.
Then if the Porte resisted the powers
action, Lord Salisbury added, it would
be signal for the ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF
Turkey.
The dispatch has caused the greatest
uneaSiness here.

DEFICIT OF A MILLION.

San Francisco, CAL, Sept. 4-The pos

CHAPTER III.
John Terrier Talks With the
Prophet.

Prophet.
Three weeks had passed since Jeffer-
son Hope and his comrades departed
from Salt Lake City John Terriers
heart was sore within him when he
thought Of the young mans return,
and Of the impending loss of his
adopted child. Yet her bright and
happy face reconciled him to the ar
rangement more than any argument
could have done. He mad always de-
termined deep down in his resolute
heart, that nothing would ever indnrs
him to allow his daughter to wed a
Mormon. Such a marriage he regard
ed as no marriage at all, but as
shame and a disgrace. Whatever he
might think of the Mormon doctrines.
upon that one point he was inf1eXible.
He had to seal his mouth on the sub
ject, however, for to express an IN
orthodox opinion was a dangerous
matter in those days n the Land Of
the Saints.
Yes, a dangerous matter-so danger
Gus that even the most sanity dared
only whisper their religious opinions
with bated breath, lest something
which fell from their lips might be
misconstrued, and bring down a swift
retribution upon them. The victims of
persecution had now turned persecut-
OrS on their own account, and perSecIt-
ors of the most terrible description.
Not the inquisition of Seville, nor the
German Vehmgericht, nor the secret
soCie ties OF Italy, were ever able to
put a more formidable machinery i'll
motion than that which cast q cloud
over the Territory Of Utah.
It's invisibility, and the mystery
which was attached to it. made this or
ganization doubly terrible. 1t appeared
to be omniscent and omnipotent, and
yet was neither seen nor heard. The
man who held out against the church
vanished away, and none knew with
er he had gone or what had befallen
him. His wife and his children await
ed him at home, but no father ever re-
turned to tell them how he had Jared
at the hands of his secret judges. A
rash word or a haSty act was followed
by humiliation, and yet none knew
what the nature might be Of this terri
BILE power which was suspended over
them. No wonder that men went
about in fear and trembling and that
even in the heart of the wilderness
they dared not whisper the doubts
which oppressed them.
At first this vague and terrible pow
err as exercised only upon the recall
citrants, who, having embraced the
Mormon faith, wished afterwards to
pervert or abandon it. Soon, how
ever, it took a wilder range. The sup
ply of adult women was running short,
and polygamy, without female pop

to be banded about-rumors Of muir

gascar.
Washington, D. c., Sept. A spice
of interest is to be added to the Waller
case by an investigation of Consul Wet
ter, who was Walters successor and is
the present consul at Tamataye, NADIA
gascar. This investigation is the result
of charges made by Charles L. Lyons,
resident of Brooklyn, N. Y, who was
temporarily in Madagascar on business
last September. Mr.. Lyons went to the
island as the agent of a Boston firm of
exporters and, it is alleged, incurred the
enmity of Wetter through the fact that
in taking the place there he necessarily
ousted a man who was personal friend
of Wetter's. Wetter had Lyons arrest
ed on the charge of opening mail adj
dressed by the consul to the governor
of one Of the provinces of Madagascar
and at his trial insisted upon sitting as
Lyons judge as well as acting prosecu-
tor. Lyons became convinced that he
was doomed to Imprisonment through
this process that he forfeited his bail
and left the island before the trial ter
minated.

The accident was peculiar one. For
several days leaking gas had been detect
ed in the holder and today the company
sent six men and a foreman to repair the
leak, which proved to come from the de-
fective valve connecting the four-inch
main which supplies the Westfeld street
holder with gas from the main holder
on Globe street. The men had just re-
turned from dinner at 1 o'clock and
going down the wooden stairs which led
from the entrance Of the cellar to the
holder below, began work on the broken
valve They disconnected it and tied a
cloth bag about the large main, when the
bag gave way and an immense volume of
gas rushed out. In less time than it
takes to tell it, all were overcome, with
the exception of one. who managed to
grope UP the stairs, where the fresh air
enabled him to recover.
