Church in Butte.
THE LATTER DAY SAINTS
The Butte Branch OF the Church Was
Organized Dine Year A~eo-Bright
Prospects Ahead Much Ad-
vancement Made.

The members Of the Butte branch II
the church Of Jesus Christ OF Latter

first anniversary OF its establishment
i'm this city. The church Is commonly
known as the Mormon church. The cell
ebration took place at the rooms of the
Montana mission on South Arizona
street.
The Butte branch was organized one
year ago by Elder Philip Kleopf.r.
Since then a Sabbath school. Ladies'
Relief society and, a short time ago. a
Young Mems Improvement association
have been established in connection
with the church.
The anniversary address was made

members. Joseph Smith, jr., and Oli2e-

dedicated to the Lord. Since that time
the corner stone of a similar building
was laid i'm Jackson county, Mo. In the
state of Illinois the Nauvoo temple was
about finished when Joseph Smith. jr.,

WAR CORRESPONDENTS.
The New York Newspapers Besieged
by Men Who Want TO Go
to the Front.

Fourteen thousand persons, it is said,
make living in this city by literary eff
fort. Nine hundred of these are actively
employed on newspapers, and every
blessed one of them wants to go to
the front as war correspondent.
What strange craze this war CORE
spondent business is! 1 have had II
men, by actual count, to beg me to pre-
sent their names to my editor as volun-
teers, for not one of them ever wrote
a line for newspaper. They are men
of means, and all they care to go for
is glory. They will pay their own ex-
penses. | think some of them would
give 100000 for the privilege of repre-
senung the Press, as it would enable
them to get well up with the first gun
and see the racket at a safe, close
range. But editors are loyal to their
men. My editor is crazy to go, and so
is his youngest Office boy; but some
body must remain here tc run the Of
flee. Already we have the cook and the
king in the field, and the rest of us are
drawing straws.
There are enough war correspond
ents now actively engaged in the manu-
facture of belligerent news to whip the
wiroie of Spain, and L regard issas. the
duty of the government to give them
the best ship in the navy and let them
go out to fight the armada. If this is
not done we shall have a marine view of
the fleet of tugs laden with correspond
ents interfering with the maneuvers of
any Spanish warship that dares threat
en-. If 'Old Sagacity" only knew this
he would think three times before
turning loose his flock of sparrows. 1t
is bad enough to fight the United States
navy, and when it comes down to the
war correspondents-Lordy!
Gen. Tecumseh Sherman had fun with
the confederates down in Georgia and
elsewhere, but he had to fight White
law Reid, war correspondent, for 20
years after. He said that Reid was
said the same of him. Sherman died
under a flag of truce. Gen. Hancock
fought Charles A. Dana until he died
And it was pretty much the same with
all the war correspondents, not be-
cause they lied but because no two
men could possible seize things in the
same light. When Spain goes against
our brigade of war correspondents let
her pray.
War has made the fortune of many
a newspaper man. Perhaps the ablest
of recent correspondents is Archibald
Forbes, who did the Franco-PrussfAn
war for the London Daily News. Janu-
arius Aloysius McGahan, an Ohioan,
served the Herald in the same war, but
afterward worked for the News. doing
excellent service. George Augustus
Sala was correspondent of the London
Telegraph in our civil war, which gave
him fame the world over. Frederick
Palmer wrote some readable articles
from Turkey and Greece, but that war
didn't amount to a row of pins. The
fallirs who described Port Arthur in
the China-Japanese war are still fax
ing. Cuba has been alive with fakirs.
Key West has them now.-N. Y. Press.

DEEP SEA LIFE.
Purity of the Water Is n Necessary
Condition for Fishes at
Any Depth.

Results of deep sea dredging are diff
ferent in different oceans. A series of
experiments made in the Aegean sea,
which is a part of the Mediterranean,
seems to estab lish the fact that there
was an abundance of life in the shallow
water, which diminished till it found a
limit at 300 fathoms, below which no
life seemed to exist. 1t was after
ward shown, when repairing a cable on
the coast of Africa, that animals were
attached to the cable that had been ly-
ing at a depth of 200 fathoms. This,
however, was exceptional for the Med
iterranean. Both the English and
American governments have made ex-
tensive research in the bottoms of diff
ferent oceans, with very interesting re-
suits to science. 1t is proved by
these dredgings that there is abund-
ant life in the Atlantic ocean as
deep down as $500 fathoms, or
nearly three miles. One result of
these soundings was to establish the
fact that there We're currents reaching
to great depths moving in opposite d..
rections, with Is degrees difference Of
temperature within a short distance.
The Mediterranean seems to be an eX-
ception to the general rule in the mat
ter of deep-sea life. The reason is
found in the fact that there is Shiny
sediment in the deeper portion of this
sea that interferes with animal respira-
ton, the same as an extremely thick
dust would in the air. Life is supported
in the water the same as on land-by
breathing oxygen. In the one case it is
absorbed from the air and in the other
case from the water. Pure water is to
the Sc animal what pure air is to the
land animal. The sea animal could not
live in muddy water continuously any
more than we could exist continuously
in an atmosphere filled with dust. 1t
is thus seen that depth is not the only
condition that affects animal life on the
bed of the sea. The nature of the soil
and deposits are factors, as well as the
temperature of the water. However,
there are certain forms of life to be
found in the lowest temperatures. But,
as is the case on land, we do not find the
same kind of life in the colder and
deeper zones of the ocean as in the
warmer and more shallow parts.
In the cold waters the animals are
dwarfed in size, somewhat as we find
them in high mountain regions. 1t is
said that the starfsh will grow as large
as pudding plate where the conditions
are favorable, but not larger than sill
yer dollar in the cold current of the At
lantic, which flows southwark. In some
places this cold current falls 2 to 21a de-
grees below the freezing point of fresh
water, at the bottom of the ocean,

LABOR.

Now the rosy hours of morning
Wake thee from the nights repose;
Fresh, with vigor crowned, uprising,
Labor till the day shall close.
Not with idle thoughts be musing;
Up, be noble, and be true.
In life's field of ceaseless labor
Something waits for thee to do.
Every hour and every minute
Brings its store of toll and care.
Up, arise! and do thy duty;
Act thy part and claim thy share.
Leave not till to-morrow's dawning
What to-day might well be done,
For the golden morrow coming
May perchance thy life outrun.
Let the morning sunbeams find thee
Working out some noble plan.
Up. and bear thy standard bravely,
And in earnest play the man.
Toll with pleasure, cease not doing;
Toll and care will soon be past.
Labor now, while thou hast power;
Rest comes sure and sweet at last.
