J. NATHAN, Prop. 151 Main S encehada revelation. It also had s militia company. It decided to put the militia company and the revelation to-gether and send the two out after the questing beast which seemed to be a descendent of that hardy old Sir Pclli-nor- There were hurryings to and fro and gathering tears and tremblings of distress when the edict went forth that the militia company must buckle on its armor and go forth to conquer or to die. The drug clerks and dry goods dispensers who had often walked out on dress parade were called upon to ren-der up an accounting for their $9 per annum per head, and though weak women wept and hearts palpitated, be it said to the credit of Independence, that not one of ber bravo militiamen quaked or shed the unbidden tear. Their various hearts may have come up in their Individual throats, but if so, they swallowed them like roast, beef aud marched away. They are marching yet. Afar the echoes of their footsteps came to us via the Western Union Telegraph company. Across tbo plains and through the canons comes the tidings of a militia company which has learned what it is good for and which has gone out to do its duty. You who on July 4 see the militiaman in all his glorious array mingling with the crowd but quite distinct from it, you who have wondered what might be his end when there should be no pa-rades to lead nnd no girls to mash, you who have said he was of no earthly use, hide your head in shame and dismay. There is a use for militiamen. ' It is quite in keeping with things that Inde-pendence should discover that use. When Paul Revere has died with Bos-ton, when Stony Point and Anthony Wayne are of memory no longer a part, when Washington and Valley Forge shall bo no longer in it, the history of our country shall still speak with a never dying eloquence of Independence, la., her militia company and the beast with a voice a cross between the roar of a lion and the screech of an enraged panther. A USB FOR THE MILITIA. A town with such a name as Inde-depenc- e Is bound to distinguish itsolf in time. Men may say that tho glory of wearing such a name a,nd being pos-sessed of a future in which the citizens stop iu tho turmoil of life to declare coniidence is sufficient. But this is not so. Independence, Mo., produced Jesse James and ruado him great, or he made her great, as you choose. Independ-ence, la., second on tho list, has done something which lands her miles ahead of Liberty, Mo., Freedomville, Ind., Lincoln. Neb., or any other patriotic-ally named town. For Independence, la., has discovered a use for the militia. A "beast of an amphibious nature," as the correspondent picturesquely puts it, which "remains secreted in the underbrush of the stream and at night wanders forth in seat ch of food lifting its tenor Inspiring voice which is a cross between the roar of a lion and the screech of an enraged panther," has been murdering the sleep of the resi-dents of Independence and has been rasping her nervous system until it has pimples on it from the waterworks to the railroad station. One young man. taking his girl homo through the woods, heard this amphibious beast with its maltese cross of a voice and he cut across fields aud made a ten-mil- e cir-cuit to get away. Ju the depths of her terror Iiidepeud- - CAN THE BLIND UK MADE TO SEE? Mr. Frank P. Beslin of this city is a man who desorves a great deal of praise as well as a great deal of sympathy. Al-though blind, he conducts a very credit-able weekly publication called The Great Salt Laker, and thus makes a living. The Blind Editor, as he is called, has frequently, while canvassing for his paper, been offered extra money but he always refused it, as he was not dependent upon charity. For years Mr. Beslin has lived in hopes that his eyesight might be re-stored through surgical science. He has been a close student of all the ex-periments, and be now believes that he can regain his vision through the trans-planting of rabbits' eyes. In the last issue of his. paper be says: Two operations of this kind have been per formed. The first was upon a young lady in Philadelphia, by Dr. L. Websftr Fox, of that city, nearly a year ago. The second was a similar ojf ration by Dr. Charles H. May, of New York city. Experiments lit th Is line wore iiegun tn France some ten or twelve years ago, when, although tbe rabbit's eye was made to ewvr fast In the man's head, tbe muscular ac-tion of the man was ho much greater than the muscular action of the rabbit that it caused an abrasion of the pupil ol tho rabbit's eye and destroyed tho sight. On account of this the French physicians advised the discon-tinuance of such experiments. Hut our Amer-ican physicians persevered, and by breeding the rabbits for this particular purpose, have, after many years, overcome this difficulty. The operation Is an oxtremely delicate one. Tho patient's system 1 first put Into the pro-per condition by dieting. The muscles of the eye are then carefully prepared.and when all is In readiness the rabbit's eye Is taken out, and while yet alive, Is set In the human head, the muscles are sewed together, and the optic nerve Is Joined by delicate suture. Where the optic uerve of the man Is all right and sound, the euds of the two nerves grow and absorb the suture with which tbey are connected, and with equal chances for seeiug. The patient, of course, Is kept in a dark room until the eyes are perfectly healed. Such is the operation that Mr. Beslin desires to have performed upon himself. His optic nerves are perfectly good and sound. Ho is prepared to offer himself to science, and ho desires money for this particular object. Ho docs not ask it as a churily, but as a loan, and will engage to ropay it. Wo hope that the wealthy men of this' city will furnish Mr. Beslin the means to pay the ex-penses of the operation. By so doing they will be doing not only a generous deed to a deserving man, but will be assisting in the advancement of surgi-cal science. The more successful ex-periments of this kind the more hope there will be for tho blind regaining their eyesight. Mr. Beslin should have no trouble in securing money for this purpose.

A bell cast recently for the Kharkow cathedral contains 68 per cent of pure silver. It weighs 640 English pounds and its vibrations last several minutes. It is a matter of tradition in Japan that fruit grows up the bamboo when there is to be a famine in that country. This year bamboo trees are bearing fruit. People in England have now raised the question whether it is Tight to visit the --Passion Play." A spirited discus-sion is going on among churchmen about it. Deserters from the German army pass into France nearly every week. They take service in the foreign legion and are sent to Algeria or other parts of Africa. The a;rophor is a new invention from Germany of great importance in textile factories, and is being introduced into the factories of England as well as Ger-many. It is au apparatus to diffuse moisture necessary for spinning with-out injury to health or machinery. A family by the name of Moore, liv-ing six miles west of Columbus, Ind., has a peculiar and distinguishing family mark running through three genera-tions. At. a reunion, held on Thursday of this week, it was learned that out of twenty-seve- persons, which represent-ed the three generations, nineteen had six toes on each foot. At a September wedding in Now York tho ushers are to bo six college classmates ot the bridegroom, all of whom graduated this year. The brides-maids' dresses are to introduce tho colors of that particular college, and other collegiate features are promised at what promises to be a very elaborate and brilliant ceremony. The summer in Europe, and espe-cially on tho continent, has been abom-inable. Paris is quite lively, a kind of second season having been organized because so Many people of fashion have returned from their chateaus to their clubs and mansions. Bain and hurri-can- u have alternated with singular ra-pidity for three or four weeks. An argument in favor of the Pasteur inoculation against hydrophobia is sup-plied by the cases of four palieuts who were bitteu by the samo dog at Staly-bridg- England. Three were treated by Pasteur, and have apparently recov-ered. The fourth was treated by the chief constable. . at . Clithuroe. who claimed to have a remedy for the dis-ease, and he has since died of hydro-phobia. ...... A Saco, Me., man hunted for a dentist who could not be found, and in his wanderings he finally turned up in a shoemaker's shop. The man's forceps were not of the best, for old shoemaker's pincers are not what dentists use now-adays; but by aid of muscular force the son of St. Crispin "got there" and the molar with him. Besides the other fel-low saved half a dollar. Atone time women threatened to be-come formidable rivals to the men as printers, but the invention of type-writing has opened to them a more con-genial occupation, and tho number of female typesetters is said to be de-creasing. There are not over 800 women printers in New York now, though formerly they were so numer-ous as to excite the hostility of the typographical unions. A queer history is attached to a Port-land young woman. When but 5 years old, away off on one of the South Sea islands, she was sold by her own peo-ple, who are cannibals, to a Portland sea captain, aud the seller firmly be-lieved that she was bought to be eaten as food. She's been educated and treated kindly and earns her living as a servant in the captain's family, realiz-ing every day, no doubt, how much better it is to eat than to be eaten. A child in West Camel is of the following dimensions: Height, 4 feet; weight, 117 pounds; circumfer-ence of abdomen, 42 inches; waist, 871 inches; chest, 87 inches; neck, 14 inches; head 32J inches; thieh, 28 inches; calf, 15J inches; arm, 111 inches; forearm, 101 inches. He is very healthy, eats all he can get, and is fairly intelligent. The parents are by no means corpu-lent, aud their other children are of ordinary size. . ARRIVALS AMD CLOSE OP MAILS.

This tow nship is wild with excitement over the appearance of a strange animal in the Kress neighborhood that makes night hideous with its roaring. The beast is supposed to bo of an amphib-iou- s nature and to have drifted in with the late high waters. As near as can be located, it has taken up quarters in a creek which passes through the farm of Georgu Powels. It is generally sup-posed that the animal remains secreted in the uuderbrash of the stream during the day and at night wanders forth in the search of food, for it is then that it raises its terror-inspirin- g voice, which is described by those who have heard it as a cross between the roar of a lion and the screech of an enraged panther. Several persons walking or driving along the road have heard the roar and became almost panic stricken, and cannot be induced to travel over the route again. One young man accompanying a young lady home heard the appalling sound but a few yards distant, and being unarmed rather than, pass over the same route again, made a detour of nearly ten miles to reach his home. Dozens of similar instances might be cited. It has at last become a matter of so much importance that the farmers here organized for a hunt and invited the Independence militia and gun club to join in the festivities. It is the d uty of every loyal American to vote the Liberal ticket. z It has been a very dry day in Salt Lake. But after sunset there will be plenty of irrigation. Every vote for the Liberal ticket means a vote for eke prosperity and welfare of Salt Lake. The polls do not closo until sunset. If you have not voted, don't fail to do so, and yote tho Liberal ticket.

Sol Smith Russell appears tonight at the Chestnut Street theater in the new play written for him by Dion Bouci-cau- lt and named "The Tale of a Coat." The Jew is a journeyman tailor, and" an unfinished coat on which he is at work is used as an object in the plot of the piece. Boucicault says it is a simple story in which New York life and char-acter are developed, and was evolved in his mind upon witnessing a perform-ance of "The Poor Relation." A spe-cial train will be run tonight to oring a number of the author's and actor's friends from New York to witness the first production. If this should meet the eye of John Smith and if John have not yet voted he will lear.i of something to the country's advantage by calling at the poll in his precinct. BRECKINRIDGE'S NEAT DECLARED , VACANT. The report of the house committee upon the Clayton-Breckinridg- e contest-ed election case is decidodly interesting reading. This case is one of the great-est political crimes ever committed in this country. Ballot boxes were stolen, Clayton was murdered, a negro detec-tive was killed, a man who was prepar-ing to give some evidonce in regard to the ballot boxes was shot to death by his own brother, who claimed it was an accident, and a prominent Little Rock republican was killed because he was interesting himself in ferreting out the ballot box thieves. Clayton was killed with the hope that bis death would be the means of suppressing the investigation of the ballot box theft. Tho other crimes followed. The assas-sin's bullet that sent Clayton to his death sent Breckinridge to congress. The committee having carefully consid-ered all the circumstances of the case adopted a resolution declaring Breckin-ridge's scat vacant, and tho house in all probability will act in accordance with the resolution. .None of tho murderers or ballot box thieves havo been brought to justice. No indictments have even been fouud, although many of the partios implicated are well known. AU these facts show a very lamentable condition of affairs in Arkansas. In concluding its report tho committee says: "That men could b fonud lawless enough to commit these crimes Is deplored, but when men of high character and standlug avail themselves of the fruits of such crime, and the control of the national house of representa-tives Is made to turn upon such methods, it no longer remains a mere matter of local con-cer-but arises to the magnitude ot a national calamity. "The present case," continues the report, "has attracted national attention. Never be-fore has a contest for a seat In congress been terminated by the bullet of the assassin. If such methods were submitted to In sllenoe, the party benrflttcd by the crime ot hia partisans quietly and without dispute retaining the benefits of the death of his competitor, a new element would be Introduced Into our form ot government." While the proposed force bill is un-popular, and may not become a law, yet such cases as tho Clayton-Breckinridg- e contest and the crimes connected with it are strong argumeuts in favor of its passage. If such a law were in force such crimes would not bo committed. The south is vigorously protesting against the force bill, yet it is in the south that political outrages occur which make such a law a necessity for tho protection of the ballot box anil the securing of a free ballot and a fair count. The political pot is not erroneously named in South Carolina if the ruffianly actions and more ruffianly language of politicians in and about Charleston shall be accepted as a criterion. FOUGHT IN THE PARLOR. A Light-Weig- ht Husband Knocked Out by Mis llesvy-Welff- Wife. VVii.kesbarrk, Pa., Aug. 4. Judge Woodward refused to grant a divorce to Henry V. Spenner today. His de-position was that his wife, Sarah, knocked him down, split his lip, black-ened his eyo and tried to thoke him while asleep. The husband weighs 121 pounds and his wife 214. The defen-dant denied the charge and said her husband was worthless and let her at-tend to all the business. Ono day she challenged him to be a man or ge t out. It was decided to settle the difficulty with bare fists in the parlor. The woman came out first best, knocking her hushand out in the fourth round. Mrs. Spenner then said, "Now I am boss ana am going to run the business." Spenner got mad and sued for a di-vorce. The parties are well connected. A few more hours will decide the election. At this hour, 3 p. m., the prospects are very bright for the Liberal ticket. It is safe to predict that it will be victorious by a majority of over 600 votes. Theater Nwr York, Auft. 4. Speoial.

' John Flimtbam is a Conejos county candidate for governor on the demo-cratic ticket. A man whose name so closely resembles Him flam should never toy with the fates.

Tellurido Journal: Yesterday after-noon we were invited to step into the San Miguel Valley bank and there we saw nine retorts from the Gold King mill having the weight and value ofWS.DD. They were the result of thirty-fiv- e days:' run, part of the time usiug thirty stamps and part of the time fqrty. The ore from which this gold was extracted was not se-lected or sorted, but the entire vein mat- ter lying between walls, showing a breast was put through the mill. This statement will show to mining or mill men the extreme richness of the ore body, and we may say here that there is ore enough now out to run the mill for 30 days, aud enough in sight in the differ-ent levels to run the mill for ten years without opening a foot of new ground. This showing justly entitles the Gold n 1 with ,ne best B01' mine9 01 tllB state, and we feel certain that under the present efficient management 'llVPif-eilil-y attaitt that position. Mr the general manager of the company, has gone to St. Louis with these retorts, and will submit to the board of directors this occular demonstration of the, wealth of the imue. The Gold Kins comes to the front and will never recede from the positioitshe has now taken. - - The cause for the persecution of the Jews in Russia Is said to be that many of them are nihilists. In 1832 a large number of them were expelled from Russia, aud many of them came to the United States penniless. Now that a second installment is likely to come here, steps will probably be taken, under recent laws, to send them back. If Russia pauperizes millions of people and then unloads tliem on this country, she should bo held accountable. Avig-orous protest from the United States should be made at once, and perhaps it would have some weight with the Rus-sian government. With no place open to them, aud robbed of all their posses-sions, the lot of the Russian Jews is in-deed an unhappy one. . UTAH NOTES. Tho Bugler says Brighton is in need of a chain gang. Social card parties have begun to dis-turb the community at Park City. John Humor, one of tho participants in the triangular tight at Ogden, is dead. According to tho Union, one hundred of Otfdon's valuable taxpayers have got the Alaska fever. One of tho favorite and most "chawed up" bonos of contention in tho Eureka district is the heavy school tax. Since the editor of tho Buglor "flopped," tho average Brighton citi-zen considers himself "purer than Snow." Au American Fork man wears pants of such a decided pattern that his children play checkors on his knees when he goes home in the evening. If the heat of the campaign is worn off sullicieutly by next Thursday even-ing, the Nelsou rifles will give a mili-tary dress ball at tho opera house in Ogdon. The faro from Ogdcu to the place whore It is confidentially believed gas will be struck has been reduced to twenty cents round trip, with doubtless excursion rates to families. The tramp nuisance has struck Brigh-ton. Some of these tiroes shot gun in the bands of an exasperated citizen will wreak such havoc in the ranks of these shiftless vagabonds that the entire community will fall upon the neck of the e.c. and cry out, "blessed! blessed!" Logan Journal: The tire in tbe mountains east of towu assumed enor-mous proportions Wednesday evening. Looking at it from the city, the blaze appeared at times to rise one hundred fet in the air, while a huge cloud of black smoke spread wide over the sur-rounding country. The strike in the Provo jail has been amicably adjusted. The grievances of the tramps was laid before an arbitrating committee, which decided that bread aud water was au excelleut diet for tramps who refused to work.

When Mrs. Sarah Spencer discovered that her husband, Henry, seemed desirous of doing a large amount of nothing, she did net desert him. She was a veritable Mrs. Micaw-be- r in this respect. She reasoned with blm and proposed they settle tho matter in the wise of the Marquis of Queens-bury- .

He had been coming up groggy for two rounds, and this soaker sent him out. Mrs. Spencer is all right. Bye and bye, when ber action shall have become custom among women with husbands possessed of an antip-athy to bodily exertion, she will be bet-ter understood.
