One Of them was named Cock
roft, the same that shot and killed
a good Latterday saint, in Salt
Lake City, whose name was Brown,
about the year 1861 or 1862, for
which he was executed. The other
was named Richardson and lie
died a few years after he arrived
here, leaving his wife in the 10th
ward of Salt Lake City, miserable
wretch. We must now return to
the plains where we lefto carts -
100 miles of our journey. After trav-
cling about 80 miles farther, we
came to Woodriver. Here we
found a few more dug-outs, and
we had to build bridge over the
water which, however, was narrow,
SO that we cut trees that were
close by and soon accomplished
that task. Here [ traded off some
OF my little valuables and purchas-
ed an old shot gun and a little
ammunition and with this addi-
tion to our means of defense we
again started on our journey, and
and travelled one day and came to
the only water, for about 20 miles,
and camped. Here were large
body of Sue Indian warriors, said
to be about 600, the first band Of
Indians most of us had seen.
They demanded flour and bacon
from our captain, and we were all,
including the captain, SO badly
scared that they got what they
asked for, namely; 3 sacks Of flour
and one Of bacon, and also other
provisions. This was in prairie
country whore you could see as
far as the eye could discern, and we
could see great numbers of buffa-
Ices feeding. Some of the Indians
mounted their horses and killed
a buffalo and brought the meat to
our camp and traded it to our peo-
pie, in small peices, for sugar,
coffee, tobacco and other things.
At night we put on a double
guard and longed for morning to
dawn, as we were filled with fear.
1t was dark night and we dare
not make fires for fear it would
give the Indians good opportuni-
ty to see us, SO we remained in the
dark and drew our carts closer to-
gether than at other times. Some
went to bed and when all was per-
fectly still, we were startled by
one of the most unearthly noises
we had ever heard, not far from
our camp. 1t was the Indians.

The whip dropped from his
fathers hand and he was allowed
to go OH his way rejoicing.
He was a pure noble man who
wrote many fine hymns for child
ren but he gave infdels, and soul
sleepers a chance to hurl one Of
his verses at men to a remarkable
degree.
It is supposed he was the author
Of the lines:
Beyond the bounds Of time and
space,
Look forward to that heavenly
place,
The saints secure abode"
Whether anybody ever believed
tho sentiments is uncertain, but
one thing is certain that it has
been hurled at the believers in
the immortality of the soul until
there is moss enough around it to
cover temple.
1t is thin and hoary with age.
If we believed Watts had been
pre-existent, we should hold that
he lost his way coming through
space and could not find the road
to glory, but his ether writings
Indicate that he was true child
Of the great Father.
Poets are not good theologians.
We once heard of a man with
poetic temperament who objected
to can extended trip where there
is no space nor even a stem wind
ing Waterbury, or prize-ring gong
to call time"
1t is not to be wandered at that
he objected to go beyond 'time and
space" but that he had set his
heart on a Paradise of the other
things only shows what fruitful
imagination can do for man.
Protestants believe that Heaven
is place where God unveils His
glory and that all good people will
at some period in the future, reach
it.
We have not read of their ex-
communicating any from the &C.
lestial glories, because Christ rules
the heavenly spheres and has not
transmitted his power to any body
OF sectarians on earth. Presbyter-
ians, Baptists and Methodists may
work out their own salvation and
lead others to Jesus, but they do
not hold the gates of the home of
the blessed. Presbyterian.

raaao watt@, I'd. I'd.

Doctor Isaac Watts was born on
July 18th, 1874. He received a
fine education and in his devotion
to intellectual pursuits permanent
ly injured his health.
He wrote many works and his
textbook on Logic was adopted by
the university of Oxford.
From his childhood he was
given to poetry. His father was
displeased with this propensity
and one day undertook to correct
him, at which the lad said:
'sDear papa, do, some pity take,
And / will no more verses make"

How the MOSQUITO Operates.

1t has been said that although the
mosquito is in reduced circumstances
he has some of the best blood in the
country in his veins. 1t is also inter-
esting to learn that he is a skillful
scientist, who draws blood as neatly as
any surgeon. Indeed, his skill, minute
~ delicate as it is, is simply tool box
in which six delicate instruments are
kept. Two of them are exact counter
parts of a surgeons lance. One is a
spear with double-barrel head. The
third an exquisitely fine needle. A saw
and a pump go to make up this wonder
full outfit. The spear is the largest of
the instruments, and is used In making
the puncture. Then the lances come
into play, their work causing the blood
to flow more freely. In case the blood
does not flow sufficiently the needle
and the saw are inserted in a lateral
direction In the victims flesh. The
pump, the most delicate of all the in
struments, is used in sucking up the
blood. This is the scientific explana-
ton of mosquito bite. In spite Of the
beauty Of the operation, scientifically
considered, people make the same kind
of a slap at the mosquito and give way
to the same rude language.-New Or
leans Picayune.

Net of The Garden Spider.

The net of the common garden spider
consists Of two different kinds of silk.
The threads which form the concentric
circles are composed of silk much more
elastic than that which composes the
rays. The concentric threads are also
covered with globules of gum which is
not to be found on the rays. A scientific
writer estimates that a net Of the aver
age dimensions contains not less than
1890 Of these gum globules, any three
of them being sufficiently adhesive to
catch and hold an unwary fly. Large
nets twelve to fourteen inches In d.
ameter) sometimes contain as many as
10000 of these minute gum balls. The
rapidity with which these nets are
built is really surprising. One that
contains from sixty to 100 yards of
silk and which is studded with $4,000
to 10000 gum globules is often COM
pleted and ready for use within forty
minutes from the moment when the
first guyrope is anchored.

Mica.

The commercial micas are: Muscovite
(white mica), rhlogopite Gambler mica),
biotite (black mica. Muscovite is used
principally for stove panels. For this
purpose it must be clear and free from
spots. The best muscovite is ruby red in
color when in blocks. The white color
comes next in value. The sizes of the
sheets most desired for commercial pur.
poses are 1 ] X inches up to 8 K 10 in
ches. Phlogopite is used chiefly for
electrical purposes, and is free from
wrinkles or crevices. 1t splits easily and
is very flexible, stands very high tenn
perature without dsntegrating; dark
spots lessen its value. Waste mica is
ground and used as lubricant for heavy
bearings, in certain insulating compounds,
for decorating wallpapers, and as fertil-
izer. Scrap mica is made up into large
sheets by patent process. The principal
sources of mica are India, Canada and
the United States. Machinery is liable to
injure the sheets. Mica is mined chiefly
by hand. The mineral is blasted. sorted,
split to the correct thickness, and then
trimmed and packed for the market in
packages of one pound. AS rule only
A per cent. is brought into marketable
form, so that the waste is enormous.

An Eccentric Vegetarian.

News has come from Jamaica, West
Indies, of the death OF one of the most re-
markable monomaniacs that has ever been
known. His name was Boeter, and up
to two years ago he was aswell lieutenant
in crack corps OF German hussars. But
one day, without any apparent reason OF
excuse, Lieutenant Boeter announced that
he had become vegetarian-or, more
strictly speaking, q 'fruitarian.
In order to carry out his fad, or his
mania-for such it speedily became--he
resigned his commission and mbarkcd on
q tour which should take in every coun
try and cline OF the globe. He believed
IN nothing but fruit; but the difficulty was
how to get fruit at all times, and he de-
termined to discover the modern Garden
of Eden, if it existed, even though he
travelled all his life in the attempt
Europe was, of course. out of the ques
tion-it was too circumscribed; so hs
started for the sunny East. and landed in
Java But here his strange quest was
unavailing Then he started for Ceylon,
and visited, in turn, Egypt Tonga, Fiji,
New Zealand, Australia and India, but
failed TO find what he wanted
Herr Boeter had money galore, his time
was his own. and so he returned to Lon
don with view of starting afresh. AS
companion he picked up another fruit

They reached Jamaica last January,
and once more began the hunt for the un-
attainable. They journeyed about the
island, visited several OF the same villages
and, as the reason of their visit and the
object of their mission had been spread
abroad, the simple inhabitants peered q,
them with unusual curiosity.
But the climate of jamaica is deadly
unless one is used to it; and it was moi
long before Herr Boeter caught the fever.
He SAID that he did not suffer any, but
merely felt tired, and decided to return to
Kingston for a rest and convalescenct

He reached Kingston IN Friday. but re-

night. His companion has decided to
abandon his fruitarian theories and return

Filling a Big Tooth.

One time in my early practice down
East" said a dentist on State street,
81 had the job of filling an elephants
tooth. The elephant, Jack by name,
belonged to Sells circus, and, while
not as big as Jumbo, he was by no
means small elephant. Jack was the
best-natured animal of the herd and
was Of a most sanguine disposition.
lone day, however, when his keeper
came to look after him, Jack made a
vicious swing at him with his trunk,
and then trumpeted loudly, showing in
every way that he was angry about
something. For several days this sud-
den change in Jacks disposition re-
manned unexplained because nobody
dared to go near enough to him to make
a careful examination of his symptoms.
1t was noticed that when lying down
he continually rubbed one jaw on the
ground. The keeper at once concluded
there must be something the matter
with Jacks teeth. l was sent for, and
after they had chained the elephants
legs so that he was unable to move,
and swung his trunk up out Of the way,
l found very badly decayed and quite
sensitive tooth. When l touched it the
elephant trumpeted loudly in pain.
"The attendants assured me that
there were no weak links in the chain
and that Jacks trunk was helpless, SO
went on with the work. Finally, either
because he had worn himself out, or
had discovered that was working for
his good, the elephant was perfectly
quiet until had cleaned out the cavity
and filled 1t.
after that his pleasant temper re-
turned, and when ] went to see him
some weeks later, in his winter quar-
tiers, he showed every sign Of grace
full recognition of my services. l re-
ceived 500 for the job."-Chicago
