DR.. Karl c. Maeser's book School
and Fireside," has just been issued
from the press of Shelton & Co. 1t is
a record of the old professors eXpe-
Tience with the boys and girls of Utah
and the west as their teacher, friend
and guide. From 1876 to 1891 he was
connected with the Brigham Young
academy at Provo and during that pc
Rod became intimately acquainted with
many of the leaders of the present gen
Grafton in Utah: he started many of
them out with the high purposes they
have since followed; he trained the
minds of many who, in their turn, are
training minds today. The work is the
result of observation, long experience,
and contact with the brightest minds
engaged in normal training. The rela-
ton of the church and school is shown
from the standpoint of a Latter-day
Saint. for the institution is denomina-
tional and the author an active member
of the organization. Those who are
engaged in the church schools. mu-

The "Catechism of Coal" is the
unique title of an interesting and in
structive special treatise on coal. its
formation, use. location, possibilities,
extent, and future. The author as
sumes that the reader knows nothing
about coal and proceeds to tell him all
about it by a system of questions and
answers which make the subject plain.
1t is unnecessary TO urge the import
ance of coal at this particular time.

A CHARGE TO BE ANswERED

We hear that the secretary of state,
DR.. Cy Thompson, has said, and no
secret either, that he has handed over
to the state treasury $1,000 from
the sale Of the reports of the su-
preme court, and that Secretary of
State Charles NJ. Cooke, a democrat,
did not pay over but 5000. We do not
know how true this is, but there may
be explanation that does not warrant
any reflections upon Secretary Cooke,
or involve DR.. Thompson in a false &C
cusation. Admitting the truth of the
statement, the reports may have cost
more to print them under Cookies adj
mipistration, or the sale may have
been small owing to scarcity of money
with the lawyers. That Mr.. Cooke
withheld money that should nave gone
to the state will not be credited by any
one who knows him-his high, manly
character-unless the proof is brought
and it must be proof of a most con.
elusive kind.
It is a time of elimination and re-
elimination. The glass houses" fel.
lows of the combine are essaying tC
break the force of the dreadful charges
brought by the democrats and the dis
gushing exposures made. DR.. Thomp-
son is a brilliant man, a pODuliSt. and
we do not doubt a gentleman of ele-
waited character, but his statement
designed by him.

RREVITIES,

Negroes in camp are disposed to be
lawless. Several times have they beer
guilty of bad conduct in service.
How hard it is for some folks to
learn by experience even. Now the
simpletons are saying thai if fresh
troops are sent to Santiago there will
be no danger from fevers. The same
sort were told Of the dangers of cam
paigning in Cuba in the rainy summer
but they were fools and passed on.
Behold the results.
Klondikers are returning and after
much suffering and disappointment.
Now for a fresh crowd of infatuated
seekers.
And now the Philadelphia Record
and the Ledger take up the glad re-
frain and are singing to the top of
their voices-"Silver is practically
dead" The Ledger says to ''revive'
it would be only ito g%alvanize a
corpse" What stupid watchmen.
Negroes living in "Hell's Kitchen"
in New York city, are rapidly NOV
ing out. So much for the "rucus."
1t is conceded that Sagasta is able
and resOurceful, an artful diplomat
not of highest type.
1t is announced hat Professor
James Seth of Cornell University, N.
Y, has been elected professor Of
moral philosophy in the University of
Edinburgh, Scotland. His brother is
professor of Logic and Metaphysics in

The election of two American brothers
to chairs in a great Scotch university
is quite remarkable.

1t looks as if Spain was playing with
a heavy hand the game of delay. In
the mean time fighting on land has
begun in Manila with American sue
cess, and the American troops in
Puerto Rico are pressing on in four
columns toward the capital, San Juan.
The American volunteers from Penn
sylvania and California at Manila
behaved with great gallantry, showing
that it is the man behind the gun"
whether a regular or only two or three
months in camp. Spain is always
seeking an advantage. 1t is to be
hoped that Sagasta may not trick the
administration. Let our government be
peremptory and go on fighting as if
there was no talk of peace. 1t is a
surprising statement that there are
less than II, 900 American soldiers in
Manila after so much shipping Spain
must be forced to believer up all pos
sessions on this side of the great
ocean.

The state crop and weather report
| was issued today and is of particular
importance as regards the cotton crop
1t says the weather for the week end
ing last night was quite favorably for
the growth Of crops. except in compar-
atively few counties where there was
too much rain, and was ALSO more
favorable for farm work than 1t has
been for some weeks. Warm, SHOW
cry conditions prevailed, with bened-
cial intervals Of sunshine, the late,'
part of the week being quite dry. The
temperature was remarkably uniform
and was above the normal. with an
average daily excess of about 4 de-
grees. Showers were frequent the
first half Of the week and at some
points in the west occurred almost
daily; but the average was below the
normal and the ground is now getting
tolerable dry. In some OF the central
southern countries a little more rain
would not be injurious. On the after
noon of the 4th a severe wind and rain
storm in the west did considerable
damage to orn by blowing it down.
The weather in the west was unfav-
orable for stacking last oats and rye
and for making hay. A large second
crop of hay will be made as soon as
conditions are suitable. Threshing
wheat is now over.
The corn crop continues to main
tain a most promising condition.
Complaints concerning it are very few.
much early corn is matured; some
fodder is ripe and pulling has just be-
gun. Tobacco is ripening rapidly and
we'll: curing is progressing very fav-
orably. There are some further COM
plants of damage TO the crop by flea
bugs. Minor crops are doing very
well. Pea vines are excellent and full
of pods. Sweet potatoes and peanuts
promise large yields. Sorgum cane
is fine. Rice is very grassy and needs
work. Fall cabbages are not doing
well on account of too much rain;
grapes are ripe, but the yield will be
diminished by rotting. Canning and
drying fruit is under way. Fall plow-
ing is now making better progress.
Special reports on cotton are very
diversified and make it difficult to de-
scribe its condition in general terms.
1t is doing very we'll on stiff, black
soil, where well cultivated, and under
such conditions has not made too
much weed and is fruiting well. On
light, sandy loans the plant has be
come large at the expense of the fruit
and shedding of bolls n lower
leaves continues. The crop is gener-
ally poor in the north and northeast,
as we'll as the coast sections OF the
state, but is excellent in the south
central, the most important cotton
growing section. AS there are less
matured bolls than usual at this sea-
son it appears probable that the yield
will be below the average, but it must
be remembered that its condition is
such that great Improvement Is
possible with favorable conditions and
late frost, and the yield M yet be
large.

A LITTLE SUFFERER

Face, Hands and Arms Covered With
ScrofuIous Humors- How a Cure
Was Effected.
"When five years old my little boy had
scrofula on his face, hands and arms. 1t
was worst on his chin, although the sores
on his cheeks and hands were very bad.
1t appeared in the form of red pimples
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and the little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. My
wife's mother had had scrofula and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
it to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his case very soon. After giving
him four bottles of Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out of his
blood and it has never since returned"

General Grant Enlbarks for Porto Rfc,

Newport News, August General
Fred D.. Grant, his staff and the re-
naming six companies of the First
Kentucky regiment, Colonel Castle
man commanding, embarked tonight
for Porto Rico on the transport Ala
mo, and the steamer is expected to

1t is not known when the other troops

The Guatamalan Revolution
washington, August 8.-Advices re-
ceived from Cocos, Guatemala, shows
that the revolutionary movement there
has assumed a phase which, while not
Jeojardizing the existing government,
promises to involve foreign residents
in great difficulty. The insurgents
under Morales are believed to have
received considerable support from
the Mexicans on the frontier, who are
said to be chargeable at least, with
failing to observe neutrality. Some
OF the foreign residents already have
suffered heavy exactions of money un-
der forcer ~levies, by the insurgents
and it may be that strong representa-
tions on the subject will be required
by the United States.

AN EXCELLENT PLACE
 FOR AMERICAN COAL.
The American Consul at Laguayra Says There Is Fine Opening For
 Coal Dealers In Venezuela.

New York, Sept. LA special to The Tribune from Washington says Louis Goldsehmidt, consul at Laguayra, says there is an excellent market in Ven- ezuela and doubtless in many ot1er South American countries for coal pro- duced i'll the United States At present nearly all the coal consumed there is mined near Cardiff, Wales, and shipped in sailing vessels. The large consump- tion of this article and the total absence of the American product from the mar ket, notwithstanding the proximity of the American coal fields, led Mir Gold schmidt to investigate the matter. The result of his observations is an interest ing report to the state department.
 The only coal mined ill Fen 2nala is produced close to Barcelona. It IS oi ln- ferior quality, and is not bought when other coal can be had. Coal pays no duty. All of the article retailed comes from one source, and the principal rail- ways use Cardiff fuel, which sells at a high figure because of lack of competi- tion. The retail price is from $ll.20 q ton to SIP 80 ton of 2240 pounds.
 Consul Goldschmidt, considers the present q good time for opening a coal trade between the United States and Venezuela and other South American states, because owing to the recent strikes in the coal mines of Wales little coal has reached these countries from Great Britain No coal from the United States has been landed in Venezuela ex- cept a special kind used in the manu- facture of gas. Further, the American consul at Laguayara writes;
 II have no doubt that the American coal can be landed here and sold much cheaper than British coal can be landed and still leave an excellent profit for the shipper Any organization that will manufacture coal into bricks of the proper dimensions and send an able rep resentative here to introduce the article can find an excellent market. l further believe that for this purpose a grade of soft coal can be used that is not always marketable ill the United States"

The Fare and the Fine.

4 good story is told ot a certain Scotch bailie who, on rising one morn ing, found that he had overslept him. self and had but few minutes in which to keep most important appointments. Making hurried toilet, he rushed from the house and hailed passing jehu.
 Drive me, he said to the man, "to the courts of justice with all possible speed. On no account delay an instant.
 Faithful to his instructions, the driver urged his steed to it's very ut. most. Faster and faster they went un- til, after an exciting drive, he deposit. ed his fare at his destination in time for the appointment, but not before he had damaged passing vehicle in his mad career. The bailie, on alighting, handed him his fare, with the addition of substantial tip, and then, to ths man sastonishment, pressed 30 shillings into his hand, at the same time saying: Here's 30 shiIlings, my man. You will be brought before me tomorrow for furious driving, and I shall fine you that amount. :"
