peremptory mo" as far as he was

FOUND IN AN OLD STUMP.
Original Manuscript of the Book OF
Mormon Is Discovered in
Illinois

Considerable excitement has been
created recently in southern Illinois
over a discovery made by Marshal PEN
rod, who lives on farm close to the
village of Dongola, in Union county
says the Chicago Inter Ocean. Penrod
in digging black stump out of po-
tato field, close to his residence, found
stone which was about foot long and
eight inches in diameter. The peculiar
shape of the stone, which resembled a
pocketbook, attracted his attention.,
and upon close examination he found
carved on its face in English the fol-
lowing words: This stone contains
the original manuscript of the book of
the Mormon. Joseph Smith"
The ravages of time had apparently
made little headway on the stone, and
upon close examination he found the
stone was hollow A hole had been
drilled entirely through it, and at both
ends red cedar plugs had been driven.
Upon removing one of the plugs, sever
al sheets of paper, containing writing
in hieroglyphics that could not be de-
ciphered, were found. The characters
are peculiar, following no known line
of ancient writing.
At the bottom of the last page was
found written in English: The finder
of this manuscript will deliver the
same to the elders of the Mormon
church" The stone still remains with
Mr.. Penrod, and already communica-
tion has been made with the Salt Lake
church, giving the incidents of the find
1t is thought the Mormon church will
take steps at once 20 secure the stone
and also the manuscript.

QUEER ACCIDENTS TO GUNS.
Mishaps on n British BnttIeship That
Caused Fear Among
the Crew.

While The British hattleship Thun-
derer was off Milford Haven, Wales,
not long ago a curious accident to
one of her guns caused much alarm
among her crew. A target had been
put out for practice with the ten-inch
breechloading guns. When one was
fired by electricity only portion of
the projectile was discharged, the
base plate of the shot and portion
of the frame being left in the gun,
When the plate was removed the pres.
sure of gas forced a portion of the
proiectile from the breech of the gun.
On the second gun being fired hole
about three inches in diameter was
blown through the projectile, the
other part of the base plate being left
behind. The base plate was in this
case separated from the rest of the
projectile.
Such accidents are believed never
previously to have occurred on board
any ship. There was much alarm
among those in the turret, as the
bursting of the guns was for time
feared. 1t is suggested that either
the powder in the projectiles was
damp or there was water in the guns.
So far as can be seen both guns are
sound

THE LAWSON CUP DEFENDER.
work on the Yacht 10 he Pushed
Will he Launched About the Same
Time ns the HerreshOf Roat.

1t is expected that the Crowninshield
designs for the Lawson cup defender
will be in the hands of the builder.
George f. Lawiey, SO thai the work of
laying down the boat can be completed
before the first of the year, or about
three weeks behind the Herreshoff
boat. The lead, angle iron and plating
have already been ordered, and if there
are no delays there seems to be no rea-
son why the Boston boat will not be
launched about the same time as the
one at Bristol.
In fact there is something like race
already between the two yachts. 1t
looks as if the Lawson boat would be
built at the Atlantic works in East Bos-
ton, under the supervision of Mr.. Law
ley. No dimensions will be given out
until the boat is fully under way, but
after that it is understood that free ac-
cess will be afforded anyone who de-
sires 20 look at the work on the new
boat.

une:
Murder, 4; murderous assaults, 115;
crimes against morals, 362; minor as
saults, 1892; defacing property, 4O1;
theft. 4.6O3.

less than any other nation. except
Denmark and Polynesia, which had
one each. The total number of arti-
cles found and turned over to the

containing $45.7OO in American money,
which never was claimed; more than
5000 umbrellas, one set of'false teeth,
PAS single garters, 90 corsets wrapped
in newspapers or otherwise, three bur-
glars kits, five crosses of the Legion
of Honor. ID foreign decorations. one
pair of lady's russet slippers, only
slightly used, and many other queer
articles.
This museum, with the exception of
what may be claimed before May
/, will be sold at auction for the bene-
fit of charity.

WILL LAST TWENTY YEARS.
Durability of II New Kind OF Cloth to
BE Manufactured by Mills
In England.

If the plans of certain English capi-
talists do not miscarry it will be
possible ere long for the economical
parent to purchase suit of clothes
which may be passed along among his
sons for the fifth of century, says
the Chicago Chronicle. Mills are now
being built in England for the manu-
facture of this kind of ,long-wearing
material, which can be turned out
in almost any color wanted. Think
of getting a suit of clothes that will
last for 90 years; that will cost only
a third more than a suit costs now
and that will be absolutely water
proof without appearing to be So
Revolutionize is rather an overworked
word, but II fits this case exactly.
Instead of singing; "Papa's pants
will soon fit Johnnie" the refrain will
run: Johnnie soon will wear pas
pants" for when pa once begins to
wear these extremely useful articles
before Johnnie has got ont of dresses
he may continue to wear them for the
next 20 years, and by that time John
ME will have grown up to them. The
same with little Mary and her moth
er's skirts. Instead of cutting down
the garments for the girl the moth
er will wear them for a generation or
so and then turn them over TO her
daughter.

a VALUABLE REPUTATION.
He Had Heen Lying for Twenty Years
ana Had Made n Name for
Himself.

"a business matter took me out
west last fall" said the well-known at
torney, who was in reminiscent mood,
relates the Detroit Free Press, land
took advantage of the opportunity
to make a trip into the mountains for a
weeks hunting. | hired an old man
to act as guide and do the cooking,
and ! enjoyed myself to the utmost.
The mountains were full of big game,
but the state had lately passed law
prohibiting the killing of deer, which
was particularly aggravating. as we
were continually running across them.
Now | am a respecter of the law-un-
less | am retained on the other side
and | found it hard work to refrain
from shooting at the deer that present
ed themselves as if they knew that they
were free from danger. But along to-
ward the last our meat ran out and |
told the old man that we would have
TO have some fresh meat even if we had
TO kill deer. He agreed with me, and
it wasn't ten minutes later that deer
sprang up ahead of us. | wasn't pre-
pared for him, but the guide was. and
he made clean miss, much to his dis
gust. That was the last deer that we
saw, and we returned without having
broken the law. But no sooner had we
arrived at the point where we had
started from than the old man was ar
rested for killing a deer. and took it
upon myself to defend him. as knew
him to be innocent. took the stand
in his behalf, and thinking it
best to make a clean breast of the mat
ter, | admitted that he had shot at
deer. but missed him. Then / put
the old man on the stand to cor
rohorate my testimony.
"'Gou admit having shot at the
deerT said |. when the old man took
the stand.
"'Thet's what!' he answered.
And you missed him?' ] contin-
ued.
"'No. street he shouted. 4 killed
him, b'gee!'
THAT took the wind out of my sails
and | collapsed, the result being that
the old man was fined $25.
After the trial ] took him aside
and asked him what he meant by
swearing to a lie and convicting him
self.
"'See hyar." he answered. I've bin
lyin' fer 90 years about never havin'
missed deer thet I shot at. an We
don't think thet l would ruin my rep.
