The one who had been addressed as " lloner " was slightly the eider, and upon his broad chest bore the tiuy scrap of ribbon that indicated that the wearer had won that most prized of English decora tions, the Victoria Cross. He did not re. ply for a minute or two to his compan ion's words. Apparently they had called up many reminiscences, few of which were areealile, but at last a smile lighted UP, his leat lives, and ne sa.a : Yes old boy: I've very oiten moiiism ny lite'wasn't jroing to lait a second iOMfe , cr but ihe most awkward moment I evet 1 i . l-'Alrl put in wasii v i" M ;0 Then 1 pres-ume It was when you were besieged iu the Kesidency during the Mutiny?" -It wasn't In action at all.

Forbes Cooley gives some InteresUng facta about Mormon life. He says; " Let me extent to you and your reader m cordial Invitation to pay our beautiful Utah village a visit and study Kocky Mountain polygamy, offspring ot a Yankee Mohammed's fertile brain, in it final stroughold. The balmy airs of an early sprUm, the green-carpeted earth, the truit trees just blossoming Into a wealth of beauty, together with the deep blue of lake, and ity, and the glistening whitcnefcs of the snow-clad peaks of the "Wasatch and tkjuirrh ranges, which hot us in. all join with us iu giving you welcome as you stop from the train. Naturally you are curious to see what a Mormon town is like, and how polygamy looks at close quarter. The uninviting streets, the barren-looking adobe houses with groves of fruit trees, forlorn fences, and general air of shUtlewsness, toll noth ing except the fact that this peculiar peo ple, while indubitably industrious. Is careless of appearances, and has no eye for beauty. A. few words of explanation here. "The two stores near the station are kept by polygamlsda. let us t ass down the street to the eat. The first house, a cheerless looking adobn, is the house of a woman who was formerly No. 2 to a far. mer In town. Becoming enamored with another mi, sho secured a divorce that she might join her affinity. Meantime, however, the latter gave her the slip and . departed with another woman, so that for j the present the drooping vine has no oak on which to eling. PasJng the adjoining adobe dwelling, yet more desolate, where a Centlle supplies youthful saints with whiskey on the sly (the rising generation In Zlou is prone to seek more for the spirit which flows from the keg than for that which Is claimed to deaceud through the "laying on of the bands of the elders of Israel"), we come next to the house oi toe former Bishop, a man who passed from this earth to his reward a while ago full of year and. If the testimony of apostate Mormons Is to bo received, full of crimes. Certain it U he was the father of forty two children and had six women as bis wives. Including a mother and her daughter. Certain It is that nothing but a runa.vay ma'ch in the night deterred him from laying unholy hands on a second, daughter of the same woman. . Ono blocJt I? th? right, down this nxt street", past" the houses Of two more poly gamists. la the wretched hovel of a Mountain Meadow murderer, while. at a like distance to the left live a iolypain lt who Is said, on (rood authority, to have been a partner in the same horriole crime. A biock further on. we reach o ir little mansion, whose hospitality is cordially ex tended to you, and whose history, after you have settled yonrselves comfortably wiiKin nfTeraaotne Items of interest. It was built by A burly Dune, famous for an enormous appetite, who a Tew ars airo emigrated to Arizona, became a Bishop in the I Jitter Uav Aingaom. an. s usum m such -caaes, took to himself a second woman. The benighted people of that Territory however, not quite educated up tn that sort of relltrion. have recently be- trared the malignity of their nnregenerate I u """""t c(je'Hv VAftfiJtU"! that commonwealth. The n..t . of the house was a woman, who, while fJ? , T1'.10 po'TKArnist tn another town , feU in love with a married mau he-e .v srand Wantl to marry bi n Brother X. the object of her aiTectians was not desirous of going into a ninrTiaire business by the wholesale, but she was not to be rebuffed. She Induced the Pa triarch of the Church to grant her a di vorce (the divorce system in ion is more demoralizing than in any part ot the KastL . .kV. T T uu" " use nis innnence with Brother X. to induce him to accede to her wishes. The intercession of the iatriarch was successful. Brother X. made the lovemltten sister his Becond wire and she lived with him here for sev eral years, bearing him four children In course of time, however, the ruueh-mar-ned and very religions sitter again be citme restless. A Bishop living to the sonth- of here had only two wives, aud Mrs. X. pined t become No. 9 to this of ficer in the Lord's kingdom. Once more the divorce machinery was put In motion and she departed to her new brideeroom hno now is onlte eqnal, it would seem, to her husband, he having three wives liv ing and she three husbanda This Is no strange and exceptional case. It excites no commotion in Mormon society. I have heard of one woman who has seven hus bands now living. " dlancing acroas the street, your eye is greeted by the neat little cottage of a neg lected first wife, a wife whose husband 1 lives In the nDtwrmrt f k tnn-n ...u 1 another woman, and who has never crossed her doorsill since the house was built year ago. He boasted some time since that he had never been c!oer to her dwelling than within sight of Its chim neys. Just opposite this poor woman Y?;? a Mo""n wife who has had the rare ability, to hold her husband in check when 111s mind was set on polvgamy. Kor thir- j jcara ana more she has fought plural marriage, even going so far as to Inform her husband that if he took another wife she wonld kill him. This argument, sus tained by her flashing black eyes, prevail ed, and the life-long battle was decided in her favor. Probably not half a doxen women In Utah have had similar success in righting the 'relic of barbarism.' The great maas of them have succumbed to the pressure brought to bear upon them and a saddened life, a home tilled with dissension and strife, and a hastened grave have eommonlv marked the tri umph of the man or tbe beast. "You will note that every housereferred to thus far has been within the range of Tour vision as yon walked the three blocks from the station to this corner. The houses of some half a doren more polygamists might have been pointed out on the way had it teen necessary. Do I need to go further and tell the status of the town at large T Do I need to tell of brutalities, disgraceful deceptions, and lying; of men tyrraunlzing over 1 heir first wives ; of two sisters married to the same man ; of our Bishop who. in obedience to , the priesthood, secretly took his woman servant for his econd wife, and long after joined with her in denying Ihe fact, even allowing her to pass for a common strum pet before he acknowledged hr ti,0 Shameful things are so common In this precious Zlon r that you are doubtless fa miliar with them. "Von cannot nlerre the nirf.ra n v. rn I tah without finding in the life below greater or less amount of baseness, cru elty and suffering. T4ie cry which would gattirally arise from thonsands of aching ATta is suppressed by the strong hand or the Church. Every smothered shriek which Is heard must be multiplied many times if you would get any correct idea of the state of things in the Inner life of this people Advantage la taken of woman's strong religions nature and she Is kept enict under th enrse which is blighting her life ey the threat that to rebel is to lose her chance of salvation and to be doomed to eternal punishment. Only oc casionally doe this powerful lever fail to keep down the struggling passion within. Occasionally it does frill, however, as the following incident shows: A Bishop went ?r with a refractory wife w no re fnsoii her husbend the nrfvib pe of a No. ..tLe fl'l1 ref- The Bishop pcr out of the house, whereupon he turned NUMBER 17. aavacelr upon ber. snff.

Orten the loftiest part of their na ture is naed asameansof forwarding the devil's work. This assert ion is no rhetor ical exaggeration, but. unfortunately, tha simpK unvarn:shd fact. A -single ex amplewill suftlre: " A good Saint came borne with nls Sf-cond wife after a short wedding trip. The neighbors met him with the an nouncement that his wife, In the mean time, learning the cause of his absence., had tried to hang herself. Ihd the brother ' manifest pain or remorse Ap parently not; for he answered : ' If she wants to tro to hell she can. She shan't stand in the way ot my exaltation.' In any other region that answer would be sufficient prixjf that the man waa a brute ; but it la not conclusive in Utah, for the reason that the Mormon Chnrch is con stants tearldni? the Saints the very prin ciple thnt there is no exaltation in the future world fr either the man or his wife unless he Is a rxdygamist. The Mor mons like to hide this teaching from the world outside of Utah, and they give strangers to nnderstind that polygamy Is an entirely voluntary rite. But to citizens of Utah, both Mormon and Gentile, no fact is more patent than this one. that men and women who. hv nature, revolt from polygamy, are actually forced into it by the pressuro which the Church brings to bear on their religions nature. I do not believe that Mormon men are naturally an v readier than others to break the hearta of" their wives. That they do it so often is one of the crushing indlct meuls against the 1-atter Day Church far i more than Beams t them.

On the morning of Aug. 8t, US. Sncr La Barrier, an immensely wealthy Span iard, died suddenly at his home in St. Thomas. His young and beautiful wife Acted. a though demented when she learned that her husband had passed away, and her intense grief and prolonged hysteria gave rise to the belief that the unfortunate woman would herself soon follow the husband whose loss she seemed to feel such poignant grief for. When Senor Ia Barrier's will was probAted U was found that he had bequeathed his en tire fortuQo to his wife, and, as no one disputed the testament, the young wife decided to turn the fortune luto ready cash and leave St. Thomas. Shortly after senora's departure the servant who had been employed in the family of Senor La Barrier informed the chief of police that he had occasion to le lieve that his late master had been poi soned, and that no less a personage than ! La Barrier's wife had committed the man SeriofaTocl-ettwrad ft, ILt kerchief, a couple of nights before his master's death: and. though a doctor s certificate declared that death waa occa sioned by peritonitis, he was morally cer tain that the man had been poisoned. The t 01 lm Harrier waa subsequently ex humed, aud a postmortem reveal 1 the fact that death wa occasioned by prussio Suspicion pointed to the wife as the murderess, and steps were at once Insti tuted by the murdered mans slster-ln-law to discover the whereabouts of Senora JLa Barrier. " Black Pedro," the detective, was at the time we speak of, probably better known to the criminal class of Cuba and Mexico than any other man living To him was intrusted the finding of Senora La Barrier, aud It w as under peculiar dif ficulties that the o.15cer started out to find the woman. His ability In such cases was never doubted, and bis daring and brav ery were by-words with every one. iviacA iro" had reached Vera Cms In bis search for the missing woman, and one day he Imparted the object of his rls !t to a fellow-officer. A fter explaining all the circumstances which had come to hU knowledge concerning the young and ueauiuui widow, he said that there was no doubt tn bis mind whatever that she had murdered bar husband and fled to a place of safety with aU his wealth. The friend became silent for a few moments and then, brightening up, said he thought he could put his friend on the track of the party be waa ia search of. That even ing the two viaited the theater, and. seated In a box, resplendent in jewels and silk-s, sat a woman whom " Black Pedro" recog nized, by the description and portraits given him, as the party he was la search of. Whsn " Black Pedro" and his friend parted that night the latter said: " Be CAref ul, Pedro, or thAt handsome creature will trick yoT1 and m&k- hor cape. 1 On the following morning Pedro stood in an ante-room adjoining the elegant apartments of Senorita Ijtpuerta, await ing that lady's presence.

He himself conld not help but not th striking beauty of the woman.

"Imust," replied "Black Pedro." "I do not doubt your innocence. lookIng In your face. It is strange that any on could couple It with guilt. But I am constrained to do my duty, senora, however unpleas ant it may be to my feelings."

There was yet a chance. A steamer left within an hour for America ; It was posa4 that she would seek that means of eocape. "Black Pedro jumped into a carriafir ' and arrived at the wharf ten minute be I fore the vessel left just In time to assist an aged and decrepit gentleman into th cahin.
