THAT ADDRESS.

The remarks ~ President Woodruff on
politics at the close Of Conference Wed.
ne.day have created quite a stir in
every direction. In view Of previous
nttemnces aud declaration made by
him the salt Lake Tribune editorally
says:
The words u President Woodruff on
politics, In The Tabernacle yesterday,
will b. received with a iuI considera.
ton Of the extreme age and the many
inGrmities Of the speaker. IL is plain
that while he was talkins he quite Tor.
got his own statements regarding the
rights aud duties Of voters when the de.
vision movement was first sprung, and
the people divided oil on party lines.
Old people, very old people. are prone
10 forget the lapse OF time and the events
Of recent days or wears, aud 10 20 back
aud follow the paths Of youth and early
manhood. IL Is quite possible that
President Woodruff yesterday was for
the first time being only dimly con.
scious Of the past seven years history OF
Utah what has been done, what pledges
have been made, what restraints aud
restrictions have been removed by bis
own consent from his own peoples
political freedom; what obligations the
church during his presidency has placed
itself under to the great Republic or its
government"
The Herald finishes up an editorial ON
tie same subject ~ follows
at is certainly TO be regretted that
President Woodruff should nave injected
politics pure aud simple into his sermon
yesterday aud advise the adoption Of q
course that u puriucd could not fail TO
result In at least partial II not com
pleic restoration Of old conditions with
all their bitterness and animosities
That which he recommends would not
remove any Of the evils from which the
people may be suffering hut would add
others innumerablc aud infinitely worse.
As we said but few days since, 1t is
better to bear those ills we nave than ily
TO others that We know not oil"
LArER-Today's Tribune says that
President Woodruff says ho spoke as a
burdencd taxpayer, aud that he is in
favor Of continuance OF present party
divisions except In city affairs; that he
did not mean 10 say there should be no
pariisanship In state elections; that he
elaimA the right 70 speak ON political
questions not as the head Of the Mormon
Church, hut asa citizen.

The chirography of the presidents,
from Washington down to Mckinley,
is as different as the chirography of
the same number of any other men
chosen at random from the various
walks of life. Students of character
contend that there are many points of
similarity in the mental make up and
equipment of our presidents, but ifthere
are, they are certainly not shown
in the handwriting of these men. OF
the entire lot I suppose old Zachary
Taylor wrote the worst hand. have
seen numerous letters of his which I
am confident no human being could
read. 1t was cramped and awkward,
like that of boy just learning to
write. Jefferson wrote plain, flow
ing hand, and Monroe's writing was
decidedly feminine, though not nearly
so much so as Grover Cleveland's,
whose chirography is small and deli
cate. Jackson's scrawl bespoke a ner-
vousness and timidity of which no.
body dared to accuse him while he was
on the earth, aud Lincoln's smooth
polish, which his crude, simple mind
did not bespeak. Of all our chief
magistrates, Mckinley writes the best
hand. aud his chirography shows a
painstaking case and caution which
are evidently the dominant factors Of
the mans characteristic. Louis Re-

John Dixon of Vanceborg, Me-,
catches frogs for the epicures in the
big cities. Every morning he can be
seen striking for the ponds and boys
with his pole over his shoulder and
basket hung over his back.
Dixon catches from $50 to 200 frogs
day and he finds ready market for
them at so cents dozen. Some days
the fishing is better than others.
When the weather is lowering the
frogs bite better than at any other
time. The method for catching the
big fellows is interesting. A large
hook is used and the barb is filed off.
A point is filed so that is not so sharp
as needle, yet sharp enough to go
through the frogs mouth. Dixon
walks along the shore or goes in a
boat, when it is necessary, and
throws out his hook and line baited
with piece of red flannel. In an in
slant there is big whirl in the water
and the frog catcher knows that he
has one. The frogs seem crazy to bite
piece of red flannel and there is no
trouble whatever in catching them if
the weather conditions are just right.
F. Dixon does nothing but catch frogs.
Some of them weigh over two pounds
each. They are sent to Pennsylvania
alive and at several points on the road
they are sprinkled with lukewarm
water. When they arrive at their des-
tination they are placed in pond
made for the purpose. New York

year-old John Conwa disappeared from his
home. Shortly his people were notified that he
would be held for a ransom and II tho latter
was not furnished the boy would be killed.
Suspicion fell on the boys uncle. JOSEPH
Hardy Ind II. q. Blake. Both were arrested
and Blake finally agreed to get the boy for
a large sum which was promised him. lie
kept his part of the agreement and produced
the boy who had been hidden in the country.
but stuffed pockotbook was given him.
When he saw that he had been trapped he
paled a revolver and firing four shots es-
capped from his captors. The county was
aroused and on Aug. 20 he was recaptured
in Schenectady. Developments had showed
that Blake was at the head of New YORK
Syndicate" which had been formed to kid
nap children and to hold them for n ransom
and kill them II the ransom was not forth
coming, partly for safety and partly for the
moral effect in eXtorting future ransoms.
For this reason the county was aroused ana
1t looked for little timo rs though Blake
would be lyncliod. Mayor Thacher
Of Schenectady really saved the mans
life and the credit of the city at the point OF
the pistol. The syndicate was composed OF
New York crooks without money or con-
science and includes a New York lawyer.
The community is breathing freer now that
the plans of these horrible conspirators
have been so quickly frustrated.

An electric plant embodying some
novel feature has been installed in q
shirt factory in New Jersey. While
all the machinery is worked electric
ally, special application of current is
made to heating systems and appli-
ances, which form an important part
of the working plant. When the sys-
tenn of heating to be adopted was
under consideration it was claimed by
the engineers, and, in fact, guaran-
teed by them, that the heating could
be done more efficiently by electricity
than by the ordinary gas apparatus,
and this has been practically accom-
plished. This installation is the larg-
est electric heating system yet en-
ployed for any commercial manufacture
ing purpose. In the sewing-room
there are ten long tables fitted with
sewing machines operated by electric
motors. Each table contains thirty
machines. The capacity of the entire
sewing equipment is about 1900 yards
of goods daily. In the making of the
various shirts, waists, ETC., thousands
Oh miles Vi tHTcdu are COuouAcu CNCi y
day. After the garment has been put
together in the sewing-room it is
passed on to the electric starching
machinery and then carried to the
drying-room. This compartment has
capacity of about 300 dozen gar
ments, which take about an hour to
dry A special section is devoted to
ironing. This includes six electrically
heated collar and cuff ironing ma
chimes, which are operated by six
horsepower electric motor and two
long tables, each equipped with forty
electrically heated hand sadirons Of an
improved type, making an aggregate
of eighty electrically heated irons. The
improvement in the health of the
working staff since electricity took the
place of gas throughout the factory is
said to be rom arlsablc. Not only is
there markedly less absenteeism but
the increased proportion of actual
work obtained from the hands is so
great as materially to affect the profits
of the oncern.-Chicago Record.

BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. 27-The 3lst an.
nual encampment OF the Grand Army of the
Republic In this city Is the greatest gather
Ing that has ever been held In any city since
the organization was founded Buffalo has
opened wide its arms to the visiting veter-
ans, and the scenes in the streets OF the city
are stirring. The municipal plant which
supplies the electric lights and numerous
private plants are taxed to their utmost for
the fine displays made. Al the important
streets are ablaze with vari-colored electric
bulbs, and the various trumphal arches
that have been erected. The effect Is Of
striking character, and the posts which ar
rived after dark marched through these
brilliantly Illuminated streets. The festiv-
tiles OF the week commenced with the open.

the reception to the commander-in-chief.

A wealthy nobleman, Prince Carl
Radziwill, came on visit to Berlin
from his large estate near Krotoschin,
province of Posen. A police lieuten-
ant talked roughly to him in the street
near the Brandenburg gate, and II
little discussion ensued, during which
the prince used the term "dnmmkoff"
(blockhead). He was arrested, charged
with insulting government official,
and fined $50, or fifteen days in JAIL
