JAPAN AND CnREa,

A true insight into the aspirations of
the japanese people and the trend of
all their past history is. I think, af-
forded by remark made to a French
Journalist by very fin de steele Toxic
politician when it first became known
that the treaty of Shimonoseki gave
the mikado no special rights in the
Land of the Morning Calm: La Coree,
voyez-vous," said his frank patriot,
'c'est PAlsace Lorraine du Japon.
F'ideles a la devise de votre Ganbetta,
nous y penserons toujours, nous men
perlerons janais." AS a matter of fact
there has been scarcely a period in
Japanese history when the subjects Of
the mikado did not embark on some
enterprise having for its end the con-
quest and appropriation of Corea. 1t
is certain that when the Empress Jiugu
hung her bow over the palace gate
of the Corean kings and wrote on the
Intel, 'The king of Shinra is the dog
of Japan" she had no idea of trans
forming the Coreans into a free and
Independent nation, with a nice taste
for frock coats and top boots. Equally
foreign was such an intention from
the policy of the great Hideyoshi and
other Japanese generals of the six
teenth century, when they ravaged
the peninsula with fire and sword from
Fusan to the Tai-Dong river.
1t is no eXaggeration to say that
until internecine troubles rendered it
impossible for Japan to pursue a
spirited foreign policy, she was a ver-
liable curse to Corea. A Japanese
writer, who, under a Russian pSeu-
donym, and in curiously lacquered
English prose, has recently composed
the epic of the late war, revels in the
piratical forays to the Corean coasts,
with which, for long period, private
adventures from the inland sea filled
in the intervals between the official
Japanese invasions. With singular
naivete he expresses surprise that so
far from these enterprises having pro-
NOTED the political freedom and social
progress of the peninsula, they ZEN
couraged the love of isolation of the
Coreans, and every measure was
adopted to prevent foreigners pene-
trating into the country" -Fortnightly

One of the most interesting species
that have been described is one dis
covered by Mr.. Wallace in Borneo a
number of years ago. 1t has been pop
ularly called the flying frog" from
the fact that it has toes of great
length, and these are fully webbed to
the tips. If the animal wishes to de-
scend from the top of a high tree it
has only to make the leap, and by
spreading out it's toes it converts it's
feet into four veritable parachutes,
and thus this little aerial patrachian
reaches terra firma in safety. Among
the most curious types are the tree
frogs, and Gibson says these ARE
readily distinguished from all others
by having the ends of their toes di-
lated into knobs or disks, generally
provided with a sticky secretion, by
means of which they can cling to the
leaves and branches of trees. They are
small, elegant and exceedingly active
crea tureS, the males possessing loud
voices, of which they make copious
use during the breeding season, and
on the approach of rain Frogs have
from remote times been regarded as
weather prophets, and at the present
day. in some parts of Germany. the
European tree frog QHyla arborea) is
used as a barometer. A few of them
are placed in a tall bottle provided
with miniature ladders, the steps of
which they ascend during fine wealth
er, seeking the bottom again at the
approach of rain.
Anatomical structures of a variety
of kinds are characteristic of differ
ent species of frogs having to do with
the voice organs. So it is that many
croak, some chirp, and some almost
below. Many emit noises most dis
agreeable to all ears. while others give
vent to sounds that under some cir
cumstances are quite enjoyable.-Ap-
pleton's Popular Science Monthly.

Idaho Suicide.

R. z. Warren committed suicide by
plunging into the Lamhi river from
the bridge last Monday afternoon. He
had not been well for some time but
was up and about. He had been max
ing his home at Mrs. Awards ranch
the old Goodell place-and on Monday
came down with Mrs. A. and her son
to the Culver ranch. He said he was
going to take a look at the river and
was seen to go out on the bridge, take
off his shoes and hat and throw him
self into the swift water. The alarm
was given and search at once com
menced for the body, but so far it has
not been recovered. The suicide was
about Y years of age, sick and de-
penuent, so when the burden of life
became too heavy he laid it down. He
came here in 1872 and has lived in this
vicinity ever since with the exception
of two years. He was known as an
honest, Industrious man, and a good
citizen. He leaves a daughter about 16
years of age, his only known relative
in this part Of the country.-Salmon

A DastardIy Act.

AS a result of a most dastardly act on
the part of a passionate, unthinking
and unfeeling woman, Charles Lake, a
tailor in the employ of Joe Oliner, lies
on a bed Of pain with his face disfig-
ured and the sight of one eye probably
destroyed, DUTCH Belle, the keeper of
a house of i'll fame, having dashed a
quantity of carbolic acid in his face
For several weeks Lake has been
spending about all the money he
earned in Dutch Bellies place, and on
Tuesday he went over as usual to
spend the evening. He played game
of cards for the beer and got stuck,
and after two bottles had been drunk
told the woman he was broke, but
would pay the score out of his first
wages. Belle became wild with rage,
and swearing like a pirate insisted that
he pay before he left the house. Lake
had no money and tried to paclfy the
furious creature, but without avail, and
with set face she walked, across the
room, poured the acid from bottle
into a glass. and suddenly turning
threw the stuff into Lakes face before
he could offer any resistance.
Blinded with pain he ran from the
building to an adjoining one, where
one of the women did all she could for
him by putting butter on his face. 1t
did but little good, however, and the
suffering man was finally brought TO
town and taken 10 Mr.. diners, who at
once went for LeCompte, who applied
remedies and eased the fearful pain,
but the damage had been done, and
Lake will probably be disf1gured for
life and lose the sight of an eye.
The woman was arrested and re-
leased under bonds and will be given a
hearing as soon as Lake is able to ap-
pear against her.
1t was a cowardly and cruel act, and
the perpetrator should be punished to
the full extent Of the law.-Park City
Record.

Rain in Arizona.

Information from various sections of
the territory shows that the rainy
season has begun, the season
known here as Sonora rains or desert
showers. The period of precipitation
comes with considerable regularity, be-
ginning about July l of each year. These
are not general rains, but a succession
OF showers, not only in the mountains
but out on the plains. While grass has
been short. this will insure good sum-
mer and fall pasturage, and raise the
streams to furnish ample water for irri-
cation.
county it rained all night on Friday
last, and that section became well
soaked. On Monday night at Prescott,
Ash Forks, Tonic Basin and at the Arr
iona dam good showers were joyfully
received. Yesterday afternoon. about the
time news of silver triumnhs flashed
over the wires from Chicago, there was
a good shower in this city, the first in
many months.
The other rainy season for Arizona is
in the nature of general rains to CORE
sponG with the California rains, occur
ring anywhere from the middle of Feb
ruary to the middle of March. These
are the two rainy seasons of this inter

The reunion of surviving members of
the Mormon battalion, which takes
place here on Thursday next, will be a
remarkable and historic gathering
Comrades in arms have been wont TO
meet together in reunion since battles
were first fought, but in this case the
survivors will meet a thousand miles
from the scene both of their mastering
in and of their battlefield. Few of the
survivors who were mustered in on the
banks of the Missouri and who
marched southwest to the Texas battle
fields have ever revisited the scenes of
that journey. Whatever else may be
said of them, they were loyal and pa
triotic; whatever be the rights and
wrongs of the disputes of those days,
the fact is that the men were asked to
enlist under a flag under which in their
judgment they had suffered injustice
and to fight for a government under
whose laws they We're forced to give
UP hard-earned homes. They enlisted,
leaving families and friends to come
on and found new homes in the desert.
Their act showed faith in the funda-
mental principles of the government
and a belief in the ultimate triumph of
justice. They did the things required
of them and would have done more
had more been required. When the
survivors assemble here on July Is, let
Ogden people one and adj show them
that the loyalty and patriotism of fifty
years ago is appreciated, admired and
hOnored

MIDSUMMER.

The sun in the heavens high soaring.
The meadows all crisp and brown;
The stream in its bed lies dying
And the weariSome drouth come down.
The brook is at rest,
It's song suppressed,
The reeds hang their heads in sorrow;
The meadow-larks perch
On the white-faced birch
And thirstily wait for the morrow.
The brook in it's bed lies dying!
The fever has scorched its veins,
And it yielded its life-blcod freely
Till scarcely pulse remains.
Dry and white, the stones
Like a dead mans bones
Clean up from the quiet bed,
And a serpent glideS
Ger its naked sides
From the weeds at it's silent head.
A vine, like maiden mourning,
Trails emerald skirts thro' the mire,
To lay her bright head on his bosom
Ere her lover, the brook, expire.
Huge spiders weave
And a face-veil leave
Ger the features SO drawn with fever;
Rank thistles stand,
White caps in hand,
Dust-powdered, to show him favor.
Quivers the heat in quick flashes
A hush, and clouds in the west.
The earth-mother waits and listens
With the dying brock on her breast.
A tree-toad cries
A brown thrush files
The rushes look up from the shore;
The cuckoos complain
There's dash of rain
And the brook learns it's song once more

hemian.
