A Legened of Moses.
All the Year Round.

Bathia, the daughter of Pharaoh
was not satisfied with merely hay-
ing saved the. child Moses; she de-
termined to make him her adop-
ted son, and took him to live with
her in the palace. On one occa-
sion, while he was still toddling
child, he narrowly escaped being
put to death. The Princess
brought him to the Presence
Chamber, where Pharaoh sat in
friendly, informal council with
the malevolent BalGam, and took
her seat by her royal father, plac-
ing the child upon her knee.
Attracted by the glitter Of the
crown, the infant Moses stretched
out his arms for it, and the great
king, taking it from his own
head, placed it on the baby brow
OF the future lawgiyer. The child
toycd with it for time and then
threw it on the ground and stamp
ed upon it. The royal circle was
seized with CONSERVATION. 1t was
the age of portents and auguries;
of what might not such an act be
omInous From Balaam, malig-
nant in mind as distorted in body,
came counsel prompt and grim.
The act, he said, was, despite
the child's tender age, fraught
with significant intent. If Phar-
aoh would reign in peace, he
must slay the sacrilegious infant.
Fortunately for Moses, Pharaoh

There were two notable conyen-
tions held yesterday--the Illinois
Democratic convention and the
Kentucky Republican convention.
We find one thing TO commend
in the action Of each Of these con-
yentions, aud that is the fact that
there was no straddling.
The Democratic and Republ;-
can parties have records and his
tories.
The Democratic party has pro-
fessed friendship, and legislated in
the interest, OF the masses.
The Republican party has al

Republicans Divided.

The division in the Republican
party on the silver question prom.
ises to be much more serious Than
the party press is willing to ad it.
Tom Carter, Senator Cameron and
a number Of other stalwarts are
sanguine that the silver men will
control the Republican National
Convention next year. That the
gold-bugs will not have a walk
over is as certain as anything in
politics can be.
Even the Westliche Post con-
cedes a minority Of over a third Of
the delegates to the free silverities
in the convention. 1t gives them
% States with 3O4 delegates and
all the Territories with Is more.
Alaska and the District of Col
umbia are included among the
latter, as is also Utah, which will
probably be a State at the time Of
the convention. Delegates from
Territories and the District Of Col
umbia will vote the same as those
representing States. So lit matters
little whether Utah is represented
as a State Or a Territory.
Here, then, are 322 votes yir-
tually conceded to the 16 to 1 free
coinage Republicans, and the to-
tai vote Of the convention will be
only 500. Their strength will in
Iall probability be even greater.

delegations fiom Arkansas, Iowa,

WEDDING
Marriage Of Miss HOltOn to q Young

The YAKIMA REPUBLIC" PLANT SOLD
Troop A OF the Cavalry Mustered
In-City Merchants Agree TO the
Early Closing Movement During
winter.

A quiet but very pretty wedding was
that celebrated at the residence of Col.
Charles NJ. Holton on Tuesday evening,
Nov. 18th, at 8 o'clock. The contracting
parties were Miss Rachael Minerva Hol-
ton, who is known by her familiar friends
as Myrtle" and Mr.. II. f. ID. Merry,
of Swansea, Wales. The bride is the
only child of Colonel and Mrs. Holton,
and the groom is a gentleman OF excel.
lent family, metsllurgist by profession
who for six years was in charge of large
reduction works at Swansea, where he
first met his bride while her father rep
resented the United States as CONNER
cial agent at that point.
The ceremony was performed by the
Rev. ID. w. Wise, of the Ahtanum Con-
gregational church. The bride was
gowned in cream-white satin, godet skirt,
large sleeves, with collar and reveres
trimmed in Irish point. She carried a
prayer book bound in white silk, and
presented very lovely picture as, at
tended by her father, she met the groom
at the altar--a prettily designed bower
OF flowers and evergreens, while Mrs. A.
L. Slemmons played the wedding march.
The guests present were DR.. and Mrs.
Morrison, Mr.. and Mrs. Slemmons, Mrs.
H. Pratt, Miss Gnilland, Miss Baxter,
DR.. Wintermute and David Guilland.
After the ceremony all did ample justice
tn an elegant wedding breakfast. Mr..
and Mrs. Merry will take no bridal trip
at present, and their future plans are not
fully matured. The parents OF Mrs.
Merry are, of course, anxious for them to
remain in this country, and if Mr.. Merry
can make satisfactory arrangements in
his capacity of metallurgist these desires
will doubtless prevail.

Fruits as Medicine.

Why for ages have people eaten apple
sauce with their roast goose and sucking
pigp Simply because the acids aud pee
tones in the fruit assist in digesting the
fats SO abundant 10 this king of food.
For the same reason at the end Of a heavy
dinner we eat our cooked fruits, and
when we want their digestive action even
more developed we take them after din
ner in their natural uncooked state as
dessert. In the past ages instinct has
taught men to do this; TO. day science tells
them why they did it, and this same
science tells US that fruit should be eaten
as an aid to digestion OF other foods
much more than it is now. Cultivated
fruits, such rs apples, pears, cherries,
strawberries, grapes, etc., contain on
analysis very similar proportions of the
same ingredients, which are about one
pc, cent of malic and other acids, and
one per cent OF fiesh-forming albuminoids,
with over eighty per cent Of water.
