Fearful Cold Of Siberia.

There are still many drawbacks to
travel on the great Siberian railway.
but one Of the greatest is the discomfort
to which third-class passengers, especi-
ally native Chinese, are subjected.
The past winter was unusually severe,
yet the rolling stock is so inadequate
that the Chinese ride in open freight
cars. In January and February, when
the thermometer registered from 30 to
40 degrees below the freezing point, the
Chinese sat in crowds on the frozen
trucks and frequently froze to death.
On one terrible night in February 15
Chinese perished and about $50 others
suffered terribly from frost bites and
exposure.

Good Example Of the QuibbIes That Pre-
vail in Legal Practice.
An English writer gives a good ex-
ample Of those quibbles in legal prac-
tice that have a sort of fascination for
certain minds. Some years ago, while
travelling on the continent, he met the
principal lawyer for the government of
one of the principalities, who told him
of curious legal question. 1t had ref
erance to railway station at the boun-
Diary between two principalities.
Someone standing outside the window
of the ticket office had put his hand
through and robbed the till inside.
The boundary line lay between where
the thief stood and the till, so that he
was actually in one territory while the
crime was committed in another. Here
was a nice nut for the gentlemen
learned in the law to crack. Which OF
the principalities should undertake the
prosecution of the criminalP
At it they went in good earnest, and
the arguments on either side were long
and vehement, till the whole case was
embalmed in many volumes. At last
one side yielded 90 far as to say:
eve will permit you, as an act of
courtesy, to prosecute, while at the
same time reserving all our sovereign
rights"
At this point of the recital asked:
"And how did the prosecution end9"
"Ah! That is quite another matter"
said my friend. "There was no prose-
cution; we were only arranging what
we should do when we caught the rob-
Der; but we never caught him.

CHAPTER III.
This is not the place to commemor>
ate the trials and privations endured
by the immigrant Mormons before they
came to their final haven.
From the shores OF the Mississippi
10 the western slopes OF the Rocky
mountains they had struggled on with
a constaney almost unparalleled In his
tory.
The savage man and the savage
beast. hunger, thirst, fatigue and dis.
ease-every impeachment which Nature
could place In the way had ell been
overcome with Anglo-Saxon tenacity.
Yet the long Journey and the aecum.
Eulated terrors had shaken the hearts
OF the stoutest among them.
There was not one who did not sink
upon his knees In heartfelt prayer
when they saw the broad valley OF
Utah bathed in the sunlight beneath
them. and learned from the lips OF
their leader that this was the promised
land, and that these virgin acres were
to be theirs for evermore.
Young speedily proved himself to
be q skillful administrator as well as
q resolute chief,
Maps were drawn and charts pre-.
pared, in which the future city was
sketched out,
All around farms were apportioned
and allotted In proportion to the stand
ing of each Individual.
The tradesman was put to his trade
and the artisan to his calling. In the
town streets and squares sprang up as
II by magic.
In the country there was draining
and hedging. planting and clearing,
untn the next Summer saw the whole
country golden with the wheat crop.
Everything prospered In the strange
settlement.
Above all, the great temple which
/ they had erected in the center of the
city grew ever taller and larger.
From the first blush of dawn until
the closing of the twilight, the clatter
Of the hammer and the rasp OF the
saw was never absent from the monu.
ment which the immigrants erected to
Him who had led them safe through
many dangers.
The two castaways, John Ferrier
and the little girl who had shared his
fortunes and had been adopted as his
daughter, accompanied the Mormons
to the end Of their great pilgrimage:
Little Lucy Ferrier was borne along
pleasantly enough in Elder Stanger-
sons wagon. a retreat which she
shared with the Mormon's three wives
and with his son, headstrong, for
ward boy of twelve.
Having rallied. with the elasticity OF
childhood, from the shock caused by
her mothers death, she soon became
a pet with the women. and reconciled
herself to this new life in her moving
canvas-covered home.
