THREATENED BY MoRMoNs-
Letters Received By Miss Dickedson
Witness in the Hooper Young
Murder Case.

New York, Jan. 2S.-The witness
in the Hooper Young case who has
received anonymous letters threat
ening that if she gives evidence
against the grandson of Bingham
Young that she will pay for it with
her life is Miss Elizabeth Dicken-
son. Miss Dickinson received a
number OF lett r, all in mans
handwriting, some plainly in black
ink and some in red ink. All are
of a similar tenor. Passages from
the book of Mormon are quoted,
and she is told plainly that it will
imperil her life if she discloses any
of the things she has learned while
a member of the Mormon Church
o. testifes to having seen Young
and Mrs. Pulitzer together at any
Of the meetings she attended.
In JUNO, 1901, Miss Dickinson

church she said nothing was said to

go to Salt Lake City and enter into
what was described to her as a
spiritual marriage she renounced

Long Branch, but about six weeks
ago obtained her present position

REFUGIO'S FIRST RAILWAY.

All CNlO - I1lo1 mil w ~ L
Grand Saline Sun.
Refugio county, one of the oldest
and, according 10 population, the
richest county in the Lone Star
state, is to have its first railroad
soon, so dispatches say. John J.
Welder and others, of Victoria, are
interested with Col. Uriah Lott TO
build a railroad, presumed to be
backed by the Frisco, from Victoria
southwest, to pass through Refugio
(''the mission") county seat of Re-
fugio county, thence on southwest
through San Patricio, Nueces and
Cameron counties to Brownsville,
on the Rio Grande.
Refugio county at present has not
a mile of railroad and owes no pub
lie debt and hasn't a delinquent tax
payer. 1t is located near the Gulf
of Mexico, 80 miles southwest of
Victoria in one of the healthiest To-
cations in Texas. 1t is ostensibly a
cattle country, but with the advent
of the railroads the bigranches will
be cut up into small truck farms,
for it is the finest truck farming
section in the state, cabbage and
tomatoes being grown and shipped
from there this month.
The little city of Refugio, usually
called 'the Mission, was establish
ed by the Jesuits or the Franciscan
monks in the year 1900. The first
settlement was made by an old
Irish colony, which obtained the
land from old Mexico, the town
itself being laid out and arranged
according to Mexican customs and
comprised 900 acres. The town is
only Il miles from the bay on
beautiful broad prairie, where in
summer a brisk salt water breeze
blows nearly all day, imparting
health and vigor TO the inhabitants.
The people, to great extent, are
descendants of the original settlers,
big-heartsd, generous and kind.

Eskimo Mythology.

Among the Eskimos the sun is a
maiden, and the moon is her brother
who is overcome by wicked passion
for her. Once as this girl was at a
dancing party in friends hut some
one came up and took hold of her by
the shoulders and shook her, which is,
according to the legend, the Eskimo
manner OF declaring ones love. She
could not tell who 1t was in the dark,
and so she slipped her hand in some
SCOT and smeared one Of bis cheeks
with IT. When light was struck in
the hut, she saw to her dismay that it
was her brother, and without waiting
to learn any more she took 10 her
heels. He startedln hot pursuit And
so they ran until they got TO the end Of
the world, the jumping OF place, when
they both jumped into the sky. There
the moon stlll chases his sister, the
sun, and every now and then he turns
his sooty cheek to the earth, when he
becomes SO dark that you cannot see

HANDWRITING people--.Is Too Much of the
Nature of Compulsion
Ed. Daily TELEGRAM :

Ed. Daily Telegram:
The subject of street praying, for
which you have wisely and OPPORTUNITY
declared your columns open for discus
sion, is one Of much interest to all of US,
but more especially 50 to those who own
real estate within the Incorporated linn
its OF the city. To have all our streets
well paved would, unquestionably, be
great boon to Clarksburg in more
respects than from sanitary and eco
nomical standpoint, and no doubt every
citizen of the city would rejoice TO see
such condition existing, but all expense
for such should be borne by the city
and no part Of it extorted by compul-
sion from the pockets of real estate
owners. The method of compulsion
which has been suggested in the eoun-
ell is, no doubt. regarded by the ma
;or,ty of the citizens a. both arbitrary
and unjust, if not actually mconstitu-
tonal. Street paving, while certainly
desirable, is also very expensive, and
compulsion would be irving enough to
many of our wealthy citizens. but what
would it be to the less fortunate people
who have toiled, saved and stintcd for
years that they might have modest
homes OF their own? To them it would
mean little short OF privation and ruin.
The citizens pay taxes to keep the
streets in proper condition and it Is the
city's duty to see that they are prop
cHy kept. We do not wish to be doubly
taxed for the purpose Of street paving.
Let the city pay for its paving out of its
own finances and not rob the people by
such an unjust and INSCRIPTIONS meas
me as compulsion. Down, the compul-
sion movement FOURTH WARD.
