Kentucky and Tennessee Keepi Green the Memory of their Distinguished Children. ' The central west ts just old enough to begin the celebration of its centennials. Of the states there first admitted to the Union after the adoption of the constitution Kentucky in 1791, Tennessee in 17!MJ und Ohio in 1803 the Inst has lately celebrated the foundation of Marietta, Kentucky is soon to celobrate the 100th anniversary of n Killed one person In every ten days. An-drew Jackson testified that In other sec-tions the average los was five a month. The eloquent Felix Grundy afterward told in congress how he saw his brothers dying under the blows of the tomahawk, and was saved by the strength and courage of his mother. "Wo," he added, "are buta remnant who escaped the many massacres. On both sides of me I see the spared monuments. Ask my colleague what he remembers. He will tell you that while his father was fighting ono band, another came and killed his two brothers. Inquire of the gentleman from Arkansas what became of his brother-in-la- Oldham. He went out to battle and never returned. Ask that representative from Kentucky where is his uncle, the gallant HardinP He will answer that he was intrepid enough to carry a flag of truce to the savages, and they slew him. If I turn to my old school-mate and friend, now a gallant senator, I am reminded of a mother's courage In the son whom she rescued from savage hands when In the very grasp of death." David Crockett's father, liko Andrew Jackson, was an Irishman of Corrickfor-gu-s fighting stock which retained all its native courage in Tennessee. After boyish adventures of the most romantic nature--be ran away from home at the age of 12, and remained three years he became a noted hunter and Indian fighter. In the Creek war ho served with great gallantry under Gen. Jackson, and beside the gallant He served several terms in the Tennessee legislature, and from 1827 tol83l two terms in congress. He opposed Jackson and was defeated, but was elected again for the term of 5. He then went to Texas, and his strange, noble and adventurous career ended in the awful massacre at the Alamo. On the Cth of March, 1836, after a bom-bardment of ten days, Santa Anna's force of at least 3,000 men stormed the Alamo, which contained about 175 "sxatis. These fired ns long as they could load, then clubbed their muskets and fought on till ail but six were killed. These had been cut oil in a separate room and were prom-ised their lives, but Santa Anna ordered them butchered The Texan tradition is that as the order was given Crockett drew his bowie knife and dashed nt the dictator, when several swords were thniHt into him. All the slain were horribly mutilated, and KIT CARBON. the corpses were then piled and burned. Such whs the hero whom Tennessee is to honor in tho monument recently begun at Lawrenceburg, ouce his borne. The services of Boone and Crockett in the central west were repeated on a far grander theatre in the Rocky mountains by Kit Carson; but his experience was with Indians, so different and in a country so unlike Kentucky and Tennessee that no parallel is possible. J. II. Beadle. DAKIKL BOONE. Daniel Boone's death and Tennessee has with imposing ceremonies just laid the cor-ner stone of a monument to Davy Crockett. Daniel Boone was born in Pennsylvania Feb. 11, 1735, and died nt Charetto, Mo., Sept. 2d, 1830; but David Crockett wus born in tho very heart of the wilderness where his great exploits were to be performed, and save for a short experience as a con-gressman his whole life was spent upon the frontier, and chiefly amid scenes so ex-citing that the coldest narration thereof thrills the blood. Boone lived to the age of 85 and died In peace and honor, while Crockett fell by a murderous hand in what was to him the prime of life. Boone is perhaps tho more celebrated, but the life of Crockett was far more romantic, and affords the more ma-terial for anecdote, as he was orator, politi-cian and humorist, as well as hunter and fighter; while Boone was a man of action only, saying little and writing nothing. Vet his fame bos filled tho world. Every western boy has listened to scores of anec-dotes about him; how he lived so long in the wilderness alone with gun and dogs that he understood every gesture and tone of his dumb comptalons; how he walked backward as fast as most men walk for-ward, to mislead the Indians on his trull; bow he cut the lower end of a grape-vine looBe and swung over a long space to "break his trail," and how he learned to nse every art of woodoraft better than the Indians, and so "beat them at their own game." Lastly his exploits were celebrated in Europe, on the stage and in popnlar ro-mance, and the poet Byron praised the pio-neer hero in those peculiar stanzas begin-ning: Of all men saving Syria, the man slayer, Who posses for In life and death most lucky, Of the great names which in our faces stare The genial Boone, backwoodsman of Kentucky, Was happiest among mortals anywhere; For killing nothing but a bear or buck he Enjoyed the lonely, vigorous, harmless days Of his old age In wilds of deepest maze. The present case In point I Cite Is that Boone llvod hunting up to ninety. Not quite correct as to fact, for Boone dropped a few Indians as well as "bear and buck." In 1760, with five companions, he sought tho unexplored wilds of Ken-tucky and within a few months be and a companion named Stewart were captured by the Indians. They escaped, but were soon captured again and Stewart was killed, lioone again escaped and, refusing to leave the wilderness with the others, lived alone for months in a little cabin. Again and again the Indians roconnoltcred the place, but they dreaded the sure rifle , of the wary Boono, who had trained his dogs to be the best of sentinels. He brought his family to the wilder-ness and, with other settlers, fought off the savages till 1773, when he was again captured. Such was the superstitious of the Indians for this marvelously , skillful pioneer that they took him all the way to Dotroit to refer his case to the Brit-ish commander. Discovering that a move against Boonesborougb was on foot he es-caped from the fort and made that wonder-ful Journey, which would be incredible if not clearly proved. In five days he trav-ersed the entire distancel Boonesborougb f--j was at ouce strengthened, and the attack " ' was repulsed. The Indians soon gave way on all sides, aud Kentucky was rapidly peopled. Then enme a cruel blow. The supreme court decided against "occupation titles." Boone's land proved to be in a strip bought by speculators, and he lost very foot of it. In 17U5 be took up bis gun and started agaiu for the wilderness, locating in the then Spanish territory of Missouri. The Spaniards made him commandant of the l''emui9 Osage district, and gave him a large tract of land. The region became part of the United States, and once more the old hero lost every acre by a conflict of the laws. In 1812, however, congress se-- DAVY CROCKETT, eared him in the ownership of another tract, and he spent the remaining years of life with his daughter, Mrs. Flanders Callo'ay. In 1845 the remains of Boone and his wife were taken to Frankfort, Ky and buried with appropriate ceremonies. His descendants have held many places of honor in the west, and have maintained the Integrity of the pioneer. When one son visited Nashville to settle the affairs of his father Gen. Jackson gently reproached him for not coming directly to his house, and took him as his guest with the charac-teristic remark, "Your father's dog should not stay in a tavern where I havo a house." Limestone, in Greene county, Tenn., where David Crockett was born Aug. 17, 1788, was in a region far more dangerous than that about Boonesborougb. Every man and boy was a warrior. No one stirred abroad without being ready to shoot at a second's notice, and it was long noted as a peculiarity of Tennesseeans t hat when a group met they did not talk face to face like other men, but back to back, and each searching the adjacent country with eagle eye a habit created by long mstom in watching for lurking Indians. From 1780 to 17S4, within a circuit of even miles around Nashville, the Indians SiaiiarS&SS Gaic. hob Time TaHe inefet Anjnst 24, 1890 EAST BOUND TRAINS. ' Ho. i" No. 4 Atlantio Atlantic Mail.

Another case of fatal foolishnessl One evening rocontly Henry Straussen, his sister Julia, and their uncle William Froy sat laughing and chatting together in their cosy homo oi. Warner street, in Cincinnati. About 8 o'clock Froy sug-gested soma mu-sic. "I won't listen to you," laughed his nophew; "I'm going to bed right away, but before I go I think I'll shoot Julia." WILLIAM FUKT. picked up a rifle and playfully pointed it ut his sister, Frey helped along the idiotic "fun" by leveling a revolver at Straussen. The pistol went off, and Straussen fell dead with a bullet in his brain. He was 2S years of ago, and his uncle is but two years older. The men were warm friends, and there is no sus-picion of intent connected with the tragedy. SALT LAKE CITY Sights and Scenes in and Around the Inter-Mounta- in Metropolis.

Bait Lake's Location, Attrac-tions an l Climate- - Garfield Beach and Other Resorts. The city of Salt Lake has a fame whlcl reaches around the world. The population Is about 55.000, and Is increasing at a rapid rate. It Is situated at the base of ths Wasatch mountains in s lovely valley, rich In agricul-tural resources and Is eighteen miles distant tram Great Salt Lake. Its elevation above tea level Is 4,860 feet. There are many points of interest to visitors in the city and near it Here are some of them: The Temple. This magniOcent cream-whit- e granite struc-ture was begun April 6, 1853. It Is 100x300 feet, the walls are 100 feet high, and the towers.when completed, will be 900 feet in height. Over 13,600,000 have been expended on the Temple, and it 1b now nnaring completion. In the same square wltb the temple is the spa-cious building called The Tabernacle. Here are held the services of the Mormon church, and these are attended every Sundav by Immense congregations of people, both Mormon and Gentile, The struoture is oval in shape, seventy-liv- e feet blKh and 850x150 feet in length ana breadth. It has a seating capa-city of ISi.QUO people, and here may be heard what is claimed to be the tinost organ In the world. Pattl once sang In tbe tabernacle, and demonstrated that its acoustic powers are very tine. The Gardo lions, or Amelia Palace, was built by Brtgham Young whe willed that it should be the residence of bis favorite wife, Amelia Folsom Young, but since his death it has been imed as the oluolal residence of dignitaries of the church. Hiigham Young's Reildeaces, known as the e and the Lion House are structures, curious from as-sociations. These are situated In what was once Rrlgham Young's domain, all of which has passed Into other hands, save the large lot In which Is Brig-ha- Young's Grave. This can be reached by passing through the Eairle Gate, an archway In the old mud wall which at one time encompassed Brlgham'S pri-vate property. One or two of the prophet's wives repose beside his last restinir place. A slab of granite covers tho grave and there is space left near by for the graves of bis other wives. - TJeseret M useum. This institution Is Bltnated on South Tempit street, directly opposite Temple square. It contains a large number of Interesting curios-ities, chlofly pertaining to the early history of Utah. It Is well worth a visit. Pronpect Hill with its lookout tower commands a splendid 'view of the city and Its surroundings. The Tithing Building possesses Interest as being the general depot for taxes collected by the Mormon church from Its disciples. , . p t , .. . . .. Liberty Park, In tho southeastern portion of tke elty Is a beautiful resort and can be reached by rapid transit trains. The Chamber of Commerce, on Second South street, Is visited by those who take an Interest in the commercial standing ot the city. There are several large oases con-taining specimens of Utah's mineralogy which attract much attention. ' Salt Lake Theater being selected. This latter place ef amuse-ment was built by llrlgham Young over thirty years ago. It Is a largo and beauBfol temple and Is oomfratably arranged. Assembly Hall, near the temple, Is used In winter for worship by the Mormons, the tabernacle being too larmi to admit of proper heating. Assembly hall Is luoxfis feet, and costr,t60,un0. Tbe oelllng is d with church pictures, among them the Angel Moroni disclosing tho hiding place f the golden plates to Joseph Smith. The Natatortum Is a large circular bathing house, the center of which, under a glass roof, Is a swimming pool The water Is brought In pipes from Beok's Hot Springs. There are also a large number of bath rooms. Electrlo Street Cars connect with every point of Interest in the city. The system is now and the appointments good. Rapid transit is assured. Camp Donglita, three miles east of the city and over 400 feet above it, Is beautifully laid out In the midst ot lawns aud orchards, and the barracks and houses of the ofllcers are built of stone. The post commands a wide view of the city and beyond where Great Salt Lake lies like molten sliver at the foot of tho western mountains. Beck's Hot Springs are in the northern part of the oity abont three miles from the business center. They Issue from the base of the mountains, and are reuarded as a very valuable aid In esses of rheumatism, dyspepsia and scrofula. The waters are used both in-ternally and externally, and there Is an excellent bath house and necessary appointments for the comfort of patients. The Warm Sulphur Springs are botweerjthe Hot Springs and the city, about one mile from the pnstornre. There Is a good hotel and oomtortable bath house In connec-tion with the springs, and they can be reached by street railway. The Mountains are unsurpassed In magnificent canvons, and at least a dozen tot the grandest are within reach of the oity. These Invite the tourist to spend days, weeks or months among their wild reoossea to fish, to hunt, to scale the Soaks and ridges, and to gather wild flowers sides of mossy springs, beneath the shade of umbrageous pines. Big Cottonwood canyon should be seen by every tourist. Here are lake Mary and Martha from whloh Mows the turbulent Cottonwood river; and at the base ot the mountains are lakes Blanche, Florence and Lillian. Besides these are Mills nreek, Parley's, Emigration, aud City Creek canyons, all extremely picturesque and delightfully romantic Pleasant Drives abound In scores around the outskirts of the city; along the quiet countrv roads, and through the lanes dividing meadows of rich green alfalfa and fields of grain; while the inajestio mountains are never entirely lost sight ot. From under the branches of trees and above hedges of the wild dog-ros-glimpses are caught of snow.covered peaks.
