Let There be no Mingling of Powers.

In Lehi there is Relief Society,
Ladies Reform Class,a Womans Suffrage
Society Civil Government Class and
Ladies' Republican Climb, all very
necessary in their places. But it should
be distinctly understood by the members
at least that an Of these arc separate and
distinct from each other. The first
having been organized by the Mormon
church is therefore ccclesiostical in its
nature. It has ior its object a generous
purpose, that OF looking after The needy,
but has no inrifdiolion over any Of the
other organizations PANIED above. The
second s quito different from the first.
lts objects and purposes are to reform
the ladies in their dress, manner OF
living and The raising OF families, all OF
which is necessary and along the line OF
progress. Tae third ia widely different
from tho second ard has for its.ohject
the rights o. the persons for whom it is
organized that OF gaining their civil
rights equal to those given men. When
the time cores that that end is reached
there viii be no need ior GO ltinung the
organization longer In Utah that end
is approaching III the delegates who
have been elected 70 he constitutional
Convention are true to their promises,
for they an, as far as We know, gave
thoirt word to work for this worthy
object. This organization Is outside OF
all CLUTCHES, has nothing to do with
polithA and must not be used as a
political machine IA any form; fit
Should be, 10 will defeat tho end for
which it, has boon organized that Of
gaining the civil rights OF the ladies 0
oil classss, creeds and politics, and the
ladies ior .hoir own good must guard
well their every move in this regard,
for iust as sure as the door is op,ned
whereby The subject Of politics il dis
cissed, just 80 sure will such move
split the organization INTO parts a. least.
II should be remembered by every |
member Of this organization that each |
and every one has a right to belong to
which Of the two political parties they |
please. Political rights are sel arated
and apart from civil rights, and it will
be wise ior the ladies to understand
whore the one ends and the other begins
The civil government class is mo-, con-
nectelwith either Of The others Ills
for the purpose oi learning how to con-
duet meetings and public gatherings in
n business and parliamentary manner
But Tbs rules are too often perverted
and business is blocked by those WHO
them. The republican club
is organized for the purpose Of stud, ing
the policy OF thnt party which enters
very largely into the financial policy Of
running our government and this is a
hing the lsdiesshould know and under
stand as well as the gentlemen because
Inc policy affects them equally in regard

Industries. For instance the republicans
believe in bounties and protection for

US the most meri torious invention dur
ing the preceding month. We vii

The idea OF being able TO invent
something strikes most people as being
very difficult; this delusion the Com
pany wishes to dispel. II is the simple
things and small inventions that make
the greatest amount OF money, and the
complex ones are seldom profitable.
Almost everybody, At sometime or an
other, conceives an idea, which, II
patented, would probably be worth to
him fortune. Unfortunately such
ideas are usually dismissed without
thought The simple inventions like
the car window which could be easily
slid up ard down without breaking
the passengers back, the sauce pan,
the collar button, the nut lock, the
bottle stopper, the snow shovel, are
things that almoet everyone sees some
way OF improving upon, and II is these
kind OF inventions that bring the great
est returns to the a-thor.
The prize we offer will he paid at
tho end OF each month, whether the
application Inns been acted upon by the
Patent Office or not. Every competitor
must apply for patent on his inven.
lion through US, and whether he secures
the prize or not, the inventor will have

SMALLEST GUNNER IN THE WORLD

SMALLEST GUNNER IN THE WORLD.
Though Not an Inch Long He Discon-
certed British Colony.
Cape Town. South Africa, claims the
honor of giving birth to the smallest
creature ever known to be a gunner in
the Royal Artillery, or any other artillery
Town, there is a magnificent gun work ed
by electricity, used for giving the midday
and evening time. One fine day all the
military and civilians in Cape Town were
astonished to hear the gun go off at 1890
in the morning, an hour and half be-
fore the proper time. II being the usual
hour for firing. Messenges came from
the General commanding the station, the
Brigade Major, commanding officers of
each regiment and battery stationed IN
Cape Town, and from every body inter-
ested, but the answer was that no person
had been near the gun, nor had any body
intertered with the wires battery or
source from which it was fired. All the
officials were fearfully puzzled at the ex-
traordinary occurrence, but could give
no explanation whatever. The General
in command of the station became furi-
Gus and said that there was mismanage-
ment somewhere, and gave orders for
strict search 10 be made by the officials
for the guilty party.
Search was made. but nothing resulted
to throw any light on the extraordinary
affair. although the greatest possible
pains were taken to solve the mystery.
They had practically given the search up,
when suddenly the news came from the
officials stating that the culprit had been
caught and arrested. 1t seems the electric
current for firing off the gun is supplied
by the Royal Observatory of Cape Town,
and goes there by means of an instru-
ment known as relay that is in the GEN.
trail telegraph office of the station, the
distance being about 500 yards The
action of the current going through the
Instruments main moves a sort of light
tongue, which is very finely set, so fine
that the least little thing would affect it,
This forces the current directly into what
they term the time fuses, which have the
power of firing the gun at the castle.
On examining the instrument one of
the officials found big brown spider
inside. 1t appears that while having an
exploring trip around the instrument the
unfortunate spider must have touched
this tongue sufficiently to move it. and
consequently it fired off the gun. The
General commanding the station sent the
spider to the Cape Town Museum. WHARF
he is now to be seen with a card under
meath him emitting him the Little
Gunner" and giving full account of his
adventure with the Cape Town midday
time gun, which proved his last adven-
ture, however.
