Alexandra Dumas, the elder, tells
this story In his diary: Zone day Victor
Hugo and I were dining with the Due
Decazes, and among the guests were
Lord and Lady Palmerston. Lord and
Lady Palmerston had come late. There
had been no time for an introduction
before dinner. and after dinner, while
we were taking tea, the Formally had
been forgotten Young Due Decazes
came up to me, My dear NJ. Dumas
he said, Lord Palmerston has begged
me to ask you to leave an empty chair

lord Palmerston got up, took his
wife by the hand and brought her over
to us. Look at the clock, my lady, he
said. What o'clock is itT asked Lord
Palmerston- Thirty-fve minutes past

said her husband. that this evening at
thirty-f1ve minutes past 10 you We're
seated between Victor Hugo and Alex

IS not likely to happen to you twice in
lifetime
"He then took his wife by the hand
and took her back to her place at the

The Valuable "My Pretty Jane,

my Pretty Jane" was one Of the
most profitable songs to the publishers
ever written. Some years ago it
brought over $4,000, Jet all that Mr..
Fitzball the writer Of the words, and
Sir Henry Bishop, the composer Of the
music, Jointly received did not exceed
f40. Fitzball to be sure, declared
that it took him just ten minutes to
write, and Bishop thought so little Of
his own setting that he had thrown the
manuscript into the waste paper bas-
ket, from which It vas ashed out by
the manager Of Vauxhail Gardens.
But, even so, the composer was surely
entitled to proportionate reward with
the publisher, and 1t Is not consoling to
recall the circumstance that Bishop
died almost pauper-Chambers

i There Are Dillions OF Toms In the
Waters Of the oceans.
n Do you know that the waters Of our
globe hold thousands Of millions OF tons
Of gold In solution. aild that IL It were
possible to extract the precious metal
from the aqueous constituent Of our
planet gold would be the commonest
Of the metals? More thhn 100 years
ago the salt boilers on the coast of
Maine found slight traces Of the
precious metal on the sides of their
evaporators. and later on Scottish
tradesmen In the same article reported
gold settings in the water taken from
the mouth Of the Dundee. In 1853 the
chemists Malaguti and Durocher ana
lyZed waters from several different 10
calities in the several oceans and seas,
the result being that they found q
slight trace Of gold and silver in every
specimen tested. Finally. in 1855, they
made grand summary Of all their
findings, the figures presented with
that report being without doubt the
most wonderful exhibit that has ever
been given to the scientific world.
1t was there shown that the average
depth Of oil oceans is $500 fathoms,
and that the surface area is sufficient
to make grand total Of 40O.OOO,OOO
cubic miles Of water, or not less than
1887, 03O. 272, 600. 100000 TONS Each ton
Of that vast amount Of surging liquid
holds, at very low estimate, one
thirteenth Of grain Of gold, or total
Of not less than 1O,25O. 100000 tons Of
the precious metal If this vast amount
Of gold could be extracted and thrown
upon the market the best financier In
the world cannot imagine what the re-
suit would be.

Minnesota.

Minnesota has been designated the
North Star State, Of which two or
three explanations have been given,
one on account Of Its geographical posi-
ton, another that the north star ap-
pears In its coat Of arms. It has also
been called the Lake State from the
great number Of small lakes within its
limits and the Gopher State because
the early settlers found golphers there
In such abundance that they proved a
serious nuisance. Even careful rider
passing over plain where gophers
abounded was in danger Of being
thrown by his horse accidentally step

CHAPTER X.
The Promised Land.

So far on their march the Lord had
protected them from all but ordinary
h%ardships. True, some members OF
the company had suffered from a
fever which they attributed to the
clouds of dust that enveloped the col.
umn of wagons when in motion, and
to the great change Of temperature
from day to night. Again, the most
Of them were for many weeks with
out bread, saving for the sick the lit
tie flour they had and subsisting upon
the meat provided by the hunters.
Before reaching Fort Laramie, too,
their stock had become weakened for
want of food; an extended drought,
the vast herds of buffalo, and the In.
dian fires having combined to destroy
the pasturage.
This weakness of the animals made
the march for many days not more
than Ave or six miles a day. At the

to break a way for the main body Of
the Saints consisted of 143 men, three
women, and two children. They were
to travel in 70 wagons, drawn by
horses and oxen. They knew not
where they were to stop, but they
were men of eager initiative, fearless
and determined; and their consola.
ton was that, while their exodus into
the desert meant hardship and griev.
ous suffering, it also promised them
freedom from Gentle interference.
1t was not a fat land into which they
were venturing; but at least it was
a land without a past, lying clean as
it came from the hand Of It's maker,
where they could be free to worship
God without fearing the narrow judy
ment of the frivolous. Instructed III
the sacred mysteries revealed to
Joseph Smith through the magic light
of the Urim and Thummim, and sus.
tanned by the divine message en-
graved on the golden plates he had
dug up from the hill of Cumorah, they
were now ready to feel their way
across the continent and blaze a trail
to the new Jerusalem.
They went in military style with
due precautions against surprise by
the Lamanites--the wretched red
remnant Of Abraham's seed-that
swarmed on every side.
Brigham Young was lieutenant gen.
eral; Stephen Markham vas colonel;
the redoubtable John Pack was first
major, and Shadrach Roundy, second.
There were two captains of hundreds
and fourteen captains of tens. The
orders of the lieutenant general re.
Quired each man to walk constantly
beside his wagon, leaving 1t only by
his officers commands. To make the
force compact, the wagons were to
move two abreast where they could.
Every mar was to keep his weapons
loaded. If the gun was a caplock, the
cap was to be taken off and a piece
of leather put on to exclude moisture
and dirt; If a fintlock, the filling was
to be taken out and the pan filled
with tow or cotton.
Their march was not only cautious
but orderly. At five a. m the bugle
sounded for rising, two hours being
allowed for prayers and breakfast.
At night each man had to retire to
his wagon for prayer at eight-thtrty.
and to rest at nine. If they camped
by a river they drew the wagons into
a semicircle with the river at it's
base. Other times the wagons made
a circle, a fore-wheel of one touching
a rear wheel Of the next, thus pro-
viding a corral for the stock. In such
tanner was the wisdom Of the Lord
concerning this hegira supplemented
in detail by the worldly forethought
of his servant Brigham.
They started along the north bank
