We expect big stories from Chicago
and get them, too Quite often they
are true; and If this be the case with
the telegraphed account OF the new
explosive compound called mirex. 1t
Is one of the biggest developments In
warfare that has ever been told of yet.
The wondrous character OF the end
said to have been accomplished 10 no
cause for incredulity, for II such an
attainment has not been reached the
common sentiment is that 1t will be,
and that in the near future. Besides
1t is not more wonderful in compari-
son with what has been done In recent
years than is an actual demonstration
that can be witnessed by Salt Lakers
at any time, 1. e., the splendid achieve
ment of the Browning gun now on eN-
hibitlon In Browning Brothers store
in this city, which hurls bullets at u
speed OF nearly 500 a minute.
With mirex applied, as It Is claimed
II can be, the suggestion comes as to
what use all the great battleships OF
the world will be in the event of con-
fiict. Those terrible war engines that
have cost their millions, and weigh in
armor thousands OF tons, are mere
playthings before the new combine
tion. 500 worth of which can be made to
destroy millions in battleships in an
instant. With mirex, n fast ocean
steamer unarmored except with long
range guns would be complete master
of the best armor- plated warship
afoat. Under such conditions the
sheathing of steel and hardwood on
n vessel would be as useless as the
ancient helmet and coat Of mail nave
become in the stopping OF rifle ball.
After all, these destructive weap-
ons of war may be about as eff
fectlve peacemakers as quarrclsome
nations need to keep them in order.
If walls of steel are OF little avail
against them, and armies and fleets
may as well fight In the open as under
cover. the art of peace is more than
likely to achieve n victory from the
fact that nations will refrain from
fighting because of the fear that wal
and death have become. through mod

PLUCKY TENNESSEE.

II Is n great exposition that they are
holding down in Tennessee this year
Not only is the exhibit in all respects
creditable and the management thor
oughly excellent, but the financial part
of the concern IS eminently crafty
ing-a fact which by reason OF it's
novelty deserves more than passing
mention. The attendance has been
very large. with no seeming diminu-
ton as the weeks pass along; and II
this shall continue, the stockholders
in the enterprise win not only realize
dollar for dollar, but tidy dividend
besides on their investment a high
quality of faith and confidence must
have been required of the men who
promoted and pushed the exposition
on n scale of such magnitude during a
period of such depression as has ex-
listed since the affair was begun. The
fact, however. that these qualities
were abundant in the leaders and were
generously possessed too by the rank
and file throughout the state at large
furnishes the explanation of the grand
success which has been achieved
throughout. On the occasion OF cele.
brating it's hundredth birthday, nc
state has given n better example OF
lusty vigor and courage than this
same Tennessee.

An altogether admirable editorial
appeared in the Brooklyn Eagle OF
August 10 under the heading Don't
Fear the Mormons." 1t was clipped
from that paper by gentleman
formerly residing in this city and well
known to many of its residents, and
sent by him to a relative here, who
gives It to the News. The article is
too good to spoil by synopsis or alb
brevlatlon in any way. so we give 1t
in full.
"some people on Long Island are
needlessly alarmed over an Eruption
of two or three Mormon missionaries
Into their neighhorhouds, and we learn
that Christians are opposing the
preaching OF these people. Evidently
the alarmists are unaware that Nor
mons are Christians, and pretty good
Christians. too. History ought not to
be written on the heel of the circum-
stance that 1t describes. The writer is
pretty sure to see II In the wrong per
spectiye, to put false values on certain
things and overlook others and to
color his report with prejudice. When
the true record Of the Mormon Church
Is written We shall see that it was not
the monstrous institution that GER
tain Gentiles made of 1t; that 1t was Il
great factor In the building of our ma
tion. Most OF the opposition TO the
Mormons IN these later years has come
from Gontiles who followed them to
SAT- Lake ana tried % Dust them from
the little garden OF Eden they had ere
ated ON the shore of that inland sea,
The Interest opponents of theirChurch
are men who are living in houses built

Mormon engineers, shaded by trees
planted by Mormons and watered by
| cold brooks brought from the Wasatch
mountains by Mormon labor. dining
daily on foods that come from Nor
mon farms and enjoying the security
ana peace that years OF intelligent
care and upright living have assured.
THE rcligion that Is preached by the
missionaries on Long Island is the re-
| lglon Of Christ and there Is not a
word in It that can be objected to- We

many years and they occasionally hold

that polyramy Is no part Of the Nor

Terrific Rain and Hail Storm
One Life Reported Lost-Hail

Heavy Hailstorm in the Hills.

The Black Hills region was visited by
terrific rain and hail storm on Thursday
and Friday last, and nearly all the sire ans
of the northern Hills were swoolen con-
siderably beyond their normal volume.
One lie was lost Ed. A. Webster, a
young man. living on dry fork OF Red
water Creek, across the line IN Wyoming,
was swept away with his house ana
drowned. A reservoir near the town OF
Belle Fourche gave away, and the body OF
water that was let loose did great damage
to several troops OF United States cavalry
camped just below the dam. Tents and
equipments were washed away promis-
cuously. some of the soldiers getting out
with difficulty. In the Speartish Valley
and on Centennial Prairie the hail de-
stroyed every vestge of vegetation in It's
path. The hail streak was two miles wide.
Drifts of icy pellets three and four feet
deep were found after the storm. The
fruit crop has been ruined all over the
northern Hills.
