San Francisco's "bug wagon,' the board of health's latest enterprise aim- jig toward the extinction of all forms of germs and dangerous bacilli, had a practical test, according to the Chroni- cle of that city. The various varieties of germs were placed on cards and buried in the center of pillows and mattresses, which were placed in the oven or sterilized box. Steam to the amount of thirty pounds pressure was turned on, and after twenty minutes it was withdrawn and formation of chemical gases was allowed to enter the vacuum. Whether the germs met instant death cannot be determined un- til after post mortem, which is now iu progress at the city laboratory. The sterilizer, the first of it's kind to be built, is self-propelling and has speed of about five miles an hour. The ma chine resembles a steam road grader somewhat in appearance and weighs nearly four tons.

The record of the Mormon church is its own condemnation. says Leslie's Monthly. No other sect in America has caused the government so much trouble; no other church has left trail of blood along its pathway. No pre- late is so powerful as the president of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. No people are so sub servient to the will of their master as are his people. The promises regard. ing polygamy have been evaded, and the practice so odious to the people of the United States is Haunted in their faces and defended. The political power of the church and its control of the suffrage of it's followers has been demonstrated. It cannot be that a Mormon, believing in the church, obeying his superiors. casting his bal lot according to their dctation, taking orders in every walk of life from the priesthood of the Mormon church. can be good American.

 At that moment a stranger entered the church very quietly; he seemed to take in the situation at once. He came forward and spoke to Agnes. who was bending over her father.
 "Leave him to me. my child" he said, "he is my boyhood friend, and when he learns that Charles is my nephew. my adopted son and heir, I think-well, 1 think we will all be hap py together" And with a hearty laugh he put his arm around the girls slender waist and kissed her frightened lips.

rresloenu kooseyeli-s new Indian commissioner Francis E. Leupp, has ideas of his own regarding the educa- ton of Indian children and youths. At various times MT. Leupp has wis., ited Indian reservations and studied the red man at close range on missions for the government, and he'has learned much of their characteristics, and now that he has assumed charge of these wards of the nation. he is able to in itlate plans and reforms which he Is convinced will be to their benefit.
 MT Leupp does not believe in the higher education of the Indians. He conceives that about all the red chill dren are capau.e of absorbing in the way of education are the simple branches taught in the day schools. When 1t comes to reservation boarding schools ard Indian schools in the east. he thinks a very careful selection should be made of the pupils who are to attend them.
 One plan the Indian commissioner has in mind for the development of the Indian boys at Carlisle school, Pennsylvania, Is to pay particular at- tention to their military training and 10 teach them trades that would be useful to them in the army. They should be taught discipline and obe- dierce to orucrs. and he believes that with the proper training they will make very useful soldiers. After they have served a number of years in the army they will be better fitted to take ur some trade in civil life. like black smithing. carpentering. tailoring, and the like. which they learned in the In. dian school and followed in the army One profession that he advises for the Indian girls is that of trained nurse The Indian by nature is unsympa;hetic and a trained nurse from sn Indian school would be more likely to carry out orders of the physicians and not be affected .by the sufferines or whims of patients than their white sisters

 "Never mind," she said, soothingly, maybe he will change his mind"
 Florence soon left the house; she must give vent to her feelings by expatiating on Judge Wells tyranny in the hearing of her own indulgent parents ana her other friends. And even this was not sufficient for relief; later she found it necessary to relate the whole story, with many little touches, to every young officer and private with whom it was her pleasure to carry on an innocent flirta- tion. Agnes lansuishing in her old ancestral home, was to her like the beautiful castle-imprisoned heroine of the old-fashioned three volume novel.
 The first one to whom she told the tale made her very angry by laughing before she had finished. He was hand some young lieutenant, and on intimate
