Charitable Hints From Odessa.

The Countess Shuvaluv of Odessa has

which is so unique that the American
consul at that place deems it worthy the
attention of the great public and private
organizations devoted to relieving dis

the following paragraphs describe her
method of work;
In every family, unnecessary articles
can be found which are frequently
thrown out from the dwelling along with
rubbish. and it is these entirely useless
things which may serve as a new fund
for the activity of the society. If every
family in Odessa. would only give during
the year one ruble's worth of these I'M

EUROPE RE-ARMING.

1t has been said that the best way
to insure peace is to be prepared for
war, since warlike nations are always
watching for an advantage, and often
tempted by opportunity.
In response to the cars peace pro-
posal, it may be that European powers.
Russia included, are making extensive
preparations on this theory. But the
car claimed that his idea was the par
tial disarmament of Europe, while he
placed orders for additional battIeships
and cruisers, and began a systematic
occupation of eastern China.
The German field artillery is being
equipped with modern rapid-firers, and
the announcement is made that France
contemplates an improvement in the
same branch of the service
This viii render the respective forces
at least three times as effective as
they have been heretofore, while the
outlay shows that both countries are
very much in earnest in the strength
ening of their batteries, which will cost
about $4,000 each, involving a total
outlay of nearly $50 OOO, 900.
France is building ninety-one war
ships at present, and an expenditure of
S6C,0O0,000 on the navy has been out
lined for the current year. Germany
viii probably increase her naval an
preparations over last year, and British
journals are urging the government to
buy at least s12, 500, GOO in quick-frers
for the artillery. British artilIerists
say that. their own force could be
swept from the field by the new guns
being adopted by France and Germany.

tentious advance in armament since the
introduction of magazine rifles" saws

genuity is taking the place of force and

ADJUSTMENTS.

1.-THE Heart of Chicago opened at the
Grand last night to a good audience.
The piece played an engagement here a
short time ago, and the management
seemed justified in giving it return
dates, to judge by the enthusiasm. OF
course, as is the rule with the Droduc-
lions of Lincoln J. Carter, scenic eff
fects have first place. Play receives a
little consideration, and cast less. In
deed, much effort spent on the lines
would be time wasted, for noise and
tumult prevail continually. The seem
cry is certainly of a most sensational
order, although the sight of Chicago
demonstration. However, the much
advertised approaching train scene
awoke the roars and bowls of the au-
dience and as a thriller proved a COM
plete success. The story, what one can
hear of it, hinges on robbery, murder
and sudden death, but the principal
memory when one leaves the theatre,
is of headlights, fires, fights, crimes
and birthstone. The atmosphere, as a
result of the scenic effects is permeated
with brimstone
The piece will run the rest of the
week, with a matinee on Saturday.

SAMSON SHOULD BE SHORN.

The motto of a morning contempora-
ry seems to be rule or ruin. If it can
not dictate, it would destroy. Like

even though it suffer with the rest.
When ecclesiastics come and go at
its beck and call, everything is lovely
as a summers dream. Influence of
whatever character, used according to
its wish or direction, is commended.
When the Democrats of Utah, in 1895,
protested against what they considered
an undue influence in a political cam
paign, the organ endorsed the action of
those who used it, and protested
against any complaint from Democrats,
on the ground that the agitation would
injure the credit and standing of the
state. But when ecclesiastics refuse to
use religious meetings in the interest of
any political party whatever, this con-
temporary rises in its wrath and
threatens to touch the hair trigger of
public sentiment, which has been
loaded to the muzzle with distrust of
the Mormon people for many years on
account of local problems that are find
ing their own solution better and faster
than it We're possible to make those I'M
acquainted with the situation and the
people believe
While the leaders of the dominant
church persist in their refusal, the or
gan of the rising storm continues to
pull the trigger. What does it care for
present circumstances, will be far more
injurious to the business interests of
the state than any local discussion of
local issues in 1895 could have been?
But it is not content with merely
trying to brighten outside capital away.
1t sneers at local enterprise. 1t would
discourage local capital in the develop
ment of Utah, if it could. 1t is doing
everything a newspaper can do to
place obstacles in the way of the Utah
& Pacific railway project. 1t is trying
to create discord among the projectors,
bearing tales from one to another,
working upon the prejudice of this one,
misrepresenting the sentiments of that
one, scouting the idea of any road be-
ing built, rejecting upon the honor and
the good intentions of all concerned,
and ali for political effect and personal
spite, just as it has scattered false
hoods about the people of Utah, in the
effort to defeat the will of the people
in regard to their congressman-elect.
If there were no one to suffer but this
latter-day Samson, it wouldn't matter
how many temples it pulled down. AS
it is, it does make difference. Sam
sons locks should be shorn closely and
regularly.

HOW TO INJURE A STATE:

If one is determined to injure the
state in which he lives, to blacken its
name and blast its reputation, to dis
rupt its people and brighten capital
away from its borders, there is a for
mula to observe.
First-Charge that Asiatic influences
dominate the state, its parties and con-
ventions; or, to be partisan, narrow,
selfish, one-sided, say that the opposite
party is so dominated.
Second.-Declare that the people of
the state are pledge-breakers, law
breakers, either directly or indirectly,
as principals or accessories, as crimi-
mails in fact or in sympathy, and lay
it to their training from childhood.
Third-Instead of proceeding in the
ordinary way to investigate alleged Of
lenses against the law and the consti-
tuition, climb to the most convenient
housetop and there proclaim to all the
world that notorious criminals are
honored and respected" and that the
moral sense of the people is perverted.
Fourth-Try to convince non-resi-
dents that immortality prevails where
people generally are as clean, moral,
honest, and upright as they are any
where.
F'ifth.-Warn capital that a few ia
natics are trying to crowd their re-
Hgious beliefs down the throat of the
nation; that they neither respect laws
nor pledges, and that moral obligations
sit on them so lightly that they are
NOT safe on that account
Sixth.-Declare that the law was a
dead letter from the first, and that it
never had any attention paid to it; that
violations are open, defiant and fire.
quent.
Seventh.-Reiterate that plural mar
riages are still being contracted in the
dominant church, and that the elders
of that church continue to solemnize
them in defiance of the law.
Eighth.-Accuse political opponents,
shield party associates, condemn loudly
and condone secretly the same condi-
tions.
Ninth-Infame the public mind
against neighbors, patrons, and a peo-
pie whose inclinations, intentions, as
pirations and actions compare favor
ably with the average community;
whose conduct and character are rea-
sonably good; who are not persistent
violators of the law; whose training
has not fitted them for participation
in the councils of the Spanish cortes
more than the congress of the United
States.
Tenth-Throw cold water on local
enterprise, and discredit the efforts of
local capital to develop the state.
observation-disclosures day after day,
that the representatives of the people
are on the market, for nothing is to be
brought where there is nothing for
sale.
TweIfth-Foment discord at home,
and start storms elsewhere to make
the agitation and turmoil as complete
ard far-reaching and injurious as
possible, and then stand off and ex-
claim, I'VE told you so,' protesting in
nocence OF completely all the while.
Either Of these suggestions, if care
fully followed out, will injure business
and brighten capital to a certain ex-
tent Practice all, and the result will
be all that the most vicious malefactor
could desire.

BUSINESS IN THE SOUTH.

The Herald published a statement of
railroad conditions and growth in the
United States, Mexico and Canada, the
other day, in which the south was given
credit for the greatest enterprise in
this direction.
Statistics since made public show that
southern states have not only taken the
lead in railroad building but in the pro-
portionate amount of business done by
the roads already in operation. The
years mileage in that section aggre-
gated 1,095 miles, while new railways
are being projected which viii show an
increase this year over the last.
A prominent railroad official. in an
interview published in the Manufac-
turers' Record, says OF Industrial con-
ditions and the business outlook in the
south, they were never better. he is
also reported as saying:
1.-The iron industry is generally con-
sidered a fair index to business. With
its decline business becomes slack; with
its prosperity all other lines of indus
Try Invariably respond promptly. The
fact that the pie. iron furnaces Of Ala
bama, Tennessee, kentucky and Vir-
ginia are running to their full capacity,
with orders so far ahead that they do
not seem warranted in even stopping
for usual repairs, demonstrates that the
south is at the height of prosperity, and
that it is the section to which men de-
string to engage in almost any line of
business can co 50 with reasonable as
surance Of success. providing they
bring knowledge and energy into the
venture"
But the chief reason for an awaken
ing of industrial energy in the south,
notwithstanding the low price of cotton,

SONG OF THE LOCOMOTIVE.
Chicago Evening Post)

Chicago Evening Post)
Blackness out of the blackness.
Fronted with dazzling light,
With a demonish groan and vomit of
flame
1t teareth through the night.
Splitting the vale with a mighty Shrek,
Flying DER glints of steel.
With a whrl by the edge of a precipice
Or lunge where the marshes reck,
And the ooZe is under the wheel.
High in the air like a wounded bird,
Spanning the trestle's thread,
Ere it plunge through the mountain of
rock with a roar
To glide By the river bed,
Ever and on like a haunted thing,
Trembling and crazed with fear.
With a fire at its heart that is eating
deep
And the speed of a dragons wing,
As it crosses the plain and the mere.
BlacknesS out of the blackneSs,
Monster of steam and steel.
Yet a thing that is living and human as
man.
A soul in the shaft and wheel.
Servant of man that abides his will,
Child of his Drawn and brain.
1t has made of the earth but little place
1t has leveled the granite hill.
Till the ends of the earth are plain.
