Viewed fronAthe Mersey it loot ss though it were walled in, the huge warehouses betweep the river and the docks effectually shutting out all signs of the city except the steeples and chimneys. And when one has lapMed, got through the Custom House and Climbed up into the streets the scene is certainly sot en- STBEET DT chanting. Most of the streets are dirty, some narrow, and the build ings, with a few conspicuous excep tions, are not at all elegant. Besides, it al most always rains in Liveipool. and the sight of dirty streets, slippery sidewalks, streaming gutters and dripping houses is dispiriting in the extreme. Even Nelson's monument at the Exchange, not a cheeriul sight at any time, takes on an added melan choly when it rains The hero of Trafalgar, with the water droppinc from the end ol his nose, looks as thongh he would gladly ex change the victor's wreath for an umbrella. Death would apparently fain trade off his robe for a waterproof, while the four figures at the base seem plunged in deepest grief at having to face such a beastly climate clad only in chains. It was raining when we landed, so with out delay we shook Liverpool's mud from our leet, took aGreat "Western train at Birkenhead and in half an hour were in Chester, one of the oddest, quaintest most J ancient and most interesting towns in "Merrie England." The Grosvenor Hotel gives us most hos pitble welcome, and alter the first meal eaten on land, and at a table which stood still, aince leaving New York, we sally forth to view the sights. The rain has ceased, and the sun is going down in a glow of golden light. The old town proper is inclosed with walls, the foundations dating from the time when the Romans held itand called it Deva Castra", the remainder from the reign of Ed ward J. They are about eight feet thick, and in good preservation, the top being in closed with parapets and the whole forming a delightful promenade about two and a half miles long. AX ETENUTG OS THE -STALLS. "We set out along the wall, passing the Cathedral, a Gothic structure of great beauty, built in 109S. The chimes are just sounding the hour of 8. and a lot of birds, startled from their perches among the ivied , towers, are fluttering noisily among the trees. The walls are thronged with strollers, and on the seats in the recesses of the para pets loving couples 'spoon in delightful unconsciousness of, or utter indifference to, the public gaze. Smart, red-coated soldiers, with little round caps on one side of their heads and canes in hand, play gallant to the maids with an elegance of style and demeanor that cast the civilians into the shade. Human nature is the same all the world over, and like their sisters in every dime, the Chester damsels "dote on the railitarv." But everyone on the scene is not "on pleasure bent," for leaning over the parapet we look down in the Ellesmere canal, which winds along at the foot, connecting Chester with Liverpool. Two long, narrow canal boats are going by, one towed by a man and a boy, while the other is slowlv dragged along by the united efforts of a woman and a boy. The tow line goes around the woman's waist, and her form is bent forward to her heavy task. A 3-year-old child clings to her skirts, and in the stern of the boat sits her lord and master steering, and smoking a short pipe in comparative ease and superla tive comfort. The town is built on a high promontory, nearly surrounded by the Biver Dee, and in places the walls rise to a great height above the water. Near the highest part is a round tower bearing the inscription, "King Charles stood on this tower September 24, 1645, and saw his army defeated on Bowton Moor." Poor Charles! How heavy the heart he carried with him down those 'stone stairs, as he turned from seeing his cavaliers flee be lore the grim, psalm-singing Bound heads! "We are still moralizing, when a woman hurries out and for the not unwieldy snm of threepence ofiers to admit us to King Charles council chamber. It was certainly cheap enough lor the privilege, but as we would have had no business with His Maj esty had he been at home and with his head on we decline and pursue our stroll. SPORTS TJT THE FIELDS. Oa one side of the city the walls are skirted with open fields, and apparently half of the young men ana boys in the place are here engaged in sports. Cricket has the call, but football, foot racing and pole jump ing have their votaries, and the scene is very attractive. Stout, hearty, athletic young men and bovs are joining iu the games with a zest which seems to enter into the spectators, and the whole occasion is one of healthy, innocent enjoyment delightful to see. It is with reluctance we tear our selves away, and, following the turn in the walls, come along by the Biver Dee. Here the scene is little less animated, for single shells, two, fonr, six and eight-oared boats flash up and down the stream, the oarsmen gay in white and col ored flannels, and making the air vocal wl'th their songs and laughter. "We top to admire the handsome stcine bridge, whose single arch spans the 200 ieet from shore to shore, and see just belo r a mill, the wheel idle for the night. A dusty Hg-pBESEV -Jf Z?- A coated individual leans over the railing of a gangway that runs along the outside and gazes meditatively into the race. Is he a descendant of that philosophic gentleman of whom the poet sang? There was a jolly miller once lived on the river Dee; He worked and sung from morn till night, No lark more blithe than he. And this the burden of his song Forever used to be: "I care for nobody, no, not J, If nobody cares for me." A philosophic frame of mind, in truth, but hard to get into, and still more hard to be merry with after one has gotten into it. Our miller sang not, however. He merely gazed down into the swirling waters, spat in them, looked up and down'the Dee and went back into the mill. The wall turns again, and we go past the castle, built in the days of the Conqueror, but so remodeled in modern times as to look little like a castle. It has fallen from its high estate, for while part of it is used as an armory and barracks, the rest serves as courthouse and county jaiL Not far away is an old fashioned house, its timbers black ened with age. It bears the singular sign, "God's Providence House." and under neath is the text, "The fear of the Lord is a fountain of life." It got this name from the fact that during the great plague it was ihe only house in Chester from which the grim destroyer did not claim and get a vic tim. ETEEETS BELOW THE HOUSES. By this time we have made the circuit of the walls, and we descend into the town. Ihe space within the walls is in the shape of parallelogram, as were the old Soman camps, audis traversed by two main streets, intersecting in the middle of the town, and ending in lour gateways. These streets are very singular, in that, for the most part, they are sunken below the houses. The sidewalks are under the second storieB of the bouses, forming a sort of arcade, with shops within. Prom these sidewalks stone steps lead down to the road. It is now after 9 o'clock, but the wonder ful twilight makes it seem almost like day. The narrow streets, lined with the quaint, overhanging buildings, are thronged with people, and a gayer, merrier crowd one could not meet anywhere. They seem like rJSP1 CHESTER. children let out ts play. Talking.laughing, singing, they pass along, making a gaiety that is infectious. The shops are all open and brilliantly lighted, business seems brisk, and in this quaint, old-fashioned town there is a life and spirit that are al most Parisian. "We join the throng and wander along with it, happy and interested without knowing why. and the old Cathe dral chimes have told the hour of midnight oeiore we realize the fact that, earlier in the evening, we had been desperately tired, and had promised ourselves to go to bed at an hour long since passed. Henby Hall. EDUCATIONAL KEWS. The Formation of Character In the School. SlaccRsrd Notes of Intercut. Mrs. H. E.

H0N0KIN CELIBACY. So Say the Old Theologians Modern Philosophers. and EXAMPLE OP THE ECONOMIES. Bessie Bramble Discusses the Old Question In a Uew Way. COJfFUSING FACTS FOR THE SIHQLB IWMniJ TOR TIES MSdTCH.1 In the earlier centuries of Christianity marriage was opposed and condemned by some of the most eminent apostles and fathers of the church. "Celibacy must be chosen," says Tertullian, "though the whole human race should perish." "Mar riage at the best is a vice that we must ex cuse and purify," is the statement of Jerome. "Marriage is unholy and un clean," says Origen, the stalwart father of Biblical criticism. All through the records of the early church is made plain the fact that celibacy was esteemed as the highest and most exalted virtue, and marriage re garded as an inevitable evil. The majority of the leaders of the church held and elo quently urged that while marriage was not, perhaps, a deadly sin, yet men and women were more pure and blessed without it that marriage might give some measure of happiness in the world, yet celibacy would give a far higher degree iu heaven. This determined antagonism to the "holy estate oi matrimony" found ample authority in the inspired utterances of St. Paul, who, claiming to be possessed of the spirit of God, asserted that while marriage might be en tered upon without sin, yet not to marry was vastly better. Another of the most noted opponents of marriage was St. Augus tine, who, with all eloquence, portrayed the the dazzling pre-eminence of celibates in heaven as compared with the dull obscurity of the married. The "Apostolic-Constitutions," which are held to be the regulations of the Apostles themselves, furnish testi mony that the early Christians were thoi--oughly taught and well grounded in t'ae doctrine that the highest places and great est honors not only in the bhurch, bu t in the world to come were assigned to the -unmarried. The great and amazing extent to which the opposition to marriage was carried in those days may be inferred and understood fiom the statement that the "P.mceror Honorius banished Joviuius whomever he was for asserting the possibility jf a man being saved who lived with his wlfe even though he obeyed all the ordinances of the church and lived a good life." The great Gregory VIIL (Hildebrand) -used all his power to enforce celibacy. EVE RESPONSIBLE IXKB IT. All this determined opposition to marri age was evolved lrom the doctrine of original sin, as these early writers and teachers denounced women as the enemies of men the cause of all their unhappiness, and the blighting curte. of the world. By the act of Eve, in eating the forbidden fruit, all mankind was doomed to misery and all the evils that br.-set them and make ol life a pilgrimage of -woe and all women are like uuto her tb e tempters, deceivers and destroyers of men.. The story is told of Ingersoll that, when asked how he would have improved on th plan of creation, he replied: "I would harve made health catching instead of disease. But th oarW fathers of the church, if they conld have had the universe just suited to their minds, would have had a world, without women. But, as by design of Providence, women had been created as companions and help meets lor men, and marriage had been or dained as a divine institution, they could not put it und'tr the ban as altogether wrong and sinful, however much they condemned, despised and rejected it themselves. But their "belief, as Principal Donaldson says in a lute ContemDorarj Meview, had a deteriorating effect on posterity, led to the survival of the unfittest, and may account for the wi ckedness and hardness of heart manifested in the succeeding centuries of cruelty -ind persecution. IN JiAEMONT WITH THE PEESENT. "Wha.t appeals most strongly to the student of thiB' subject is that the thing which was held :nd taught as the ideal life in religion thr,t most in consonance with the holiness of heaven centuries ago and is still held to be 'he most desirable manner of life for the chu-gy, and is chosen by many women, and ei iforced upon many others, because there f -.a nnt annnnli man fn r nnn I,.. !.......... an article of doctrine and belief, in a grow ing school of philosophy, as the only way of overcoming the, evil and misery of this sadly wicked world. Judged by the articles of her faith and the institutions of her church, and also, strange to say, by the pessimistic philosophy of the radical and unorthodox Schopenhauer, Miss Kate Drexel, who has so recently abjured marriage and taken upon herself the vows of celibacy, has chosen a life ol asceticism that will" best insure here a rich reward in heaven and best serve the wel fare of the world at large. Ortho dox religion and the philosophy oi the High Priest of Pessimism are therefore one and united on this point of devoting a life to celibacy rather than to marriage. More over the world gives to her an interest, a palm beyond the common, in that she chose a single life instead of bestowing her hand and millions in marriage iu everyday style, as have done her sisters. Her self-sacrifice and renunciation are manifest unto all, and the result on earth will be the same, wheth er at the call of religion or the philosophy of pessimism. THE ECONOMITE SOCIETY. Of how this system of Schopenhauer's would work the Economy Community, with its rejection of marriage and its ascetic rules and regulations, furnishes an exanmle just at our doors. Whether as a religious doctrine most acceptable to heaven, or a scheme of philosophy ardently promul gated by the apostle of pessimism, it seems, in the little socialist villaee within our borders, to have worked in the interests of honesty, morality and goodcitizgnship. Its members have won golden opinions as ,to truth, uprightness, and all that goes to high character, as measured by the standard of the gospel. They have" greatly prospered in business, and with their amazing progress in material wealth, poverty has not been associated. Perhaps a study of this staid and notable town might give answer to the problem of Henrv George as to why it is that poverty is al ways in close company with progress, and why the rich grow' richer and the poor poorer with the advance of wealth and production, which should result in benefit to all. It is hardly to be thought that bis solution of the riddle of the Sphinx of Pate the abolition of all taxes save on land would give answer or furnish proof as to the canse of the great prosperity of Economy. The ardent and .sincere Prohibitionists fondly imagine that the abolition of all stimulants and the total abstinence from all spirituous liquors will result in eradicating the evils of poverty and most of the misery of the world, but to their assertions the morality and uprightness of the citizens of Economy lurnish as little iu the way of tes timony to truth as they do to the ideas and doctrines of Henry George. The making of wine and other liquors is one of the indus tries of the community, and the drinking of them as a beverage is their everday habit, and yet where could be found a more moral, upright, religious and prosperous body of citizens than are the people of Economy? THEOEIES THAT WILL FIT. Those who have unfortunately found mar riage a failure will probably ascribe the prosperity and harmony, the peace and calm content, tne quiet, orderly conduct ot life that distinguish the 'Economites. to the abolition of marriage, while those who find their ideals in communism and co operation will very likely set it down as due to the fact that they live up to the views of I the chief priests and advocates of socialism, rather than their agreement with Hum boldt when he says: "I consider marriage a sin and becoming a father a crime." With all the present discussion of the subject of marriage and divorce by such able thinkers of differing views as Glad stone, Bishop Potter, Cardinal Gibbons, Justice Bradly on the man's side, and Mrs. Livermore, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, Ame lia Barr, Jennie June and other noted women on the woman's, and the diverse views of the church, the State, philosophy and science put together, it is likely the question will be deeply considered, widely discussed and carefully analyzed, and that much knowledge concerning the subject will be difiused. As a result, the laws of marriage and divorce, aa now existing, will be revised and reformed. That such is sore ly needed will hardly be denied by even the most conservative. IT -WTLIi 1TOT ATAIL. But while celibacy may still be extolled as the most high and holy state by the church, and women, may still shroud them selves in cloisters, and men find work to their minds and solace for their souls in monasteries, and women and men in society alike will live single lives from motives more selfish, or through coercion of untoward fate, it is much to be doubted if any, save the very few, will devote themselves to a lite of asceticism through a study of, or faith in, Schopenhauer's specfic for the miseries ot life. It will take another round of evolu tion, or something more convincing than the dictum of the saints of old, or the de crees of Canonical Councils, or the teachings of the philosophy of pessimism to incline the hearts and souls ot men anu women to give up the sweets of love, and re sign the jovs of marriase. With Ad dison they will still cherish the belief that "A happy marriage hasinitall thepleasures of friendship, all the enjoyments of sense and reason, and indeed all the sweets and blessings of this life." Marrying and giving in marriage will still go on, though Schopenhauer has devoted six volumes to proving that love is an illusion; that love matches are mostly unhappy; that marriage tends to a perpetuation of the sorrows and miseries of the world. THE OUTLOOK IS CONFUSING. Things are awfully confused for ordinary people, and indeed" for all men, when the testimony of the Scriptures, the authority of the fathers of the church, the teachings of unorthodox philosophy, and the verdict of German and other metaphysicians are all enlisted in favor of celibacy and against marriage. But marriage is a decree of nature. Shall such law prevail? is answered in the canon of the sixteenth century, which made mar riage a sacrament That there must be some inner law that makes celibacy a virtue is shown by the fact that men and women, re gardless of fortune, enter the ranks of single life, with enthusiasm and devotion. The everlasting question then comes up whether single life or marriage best answers to the needs of the race and the welfare of man kind. The world moves and the devices and desires of mankind move with it. To marry or not to marry, is a problem for each and every one for himself. The interest of men and women is not as to posterity, but in the promises ot the present. Schtpen hauer's ideas are not for this day and gen eration. Bessie Beahble. THAT BUDLNG WHISKER 0EDEE. Every Magnate of the Railroad Wears What Employes Can't. rEFBCTJLI, TKLEOBJLM TO TUB DISPATCH. New Toek, January 18. At an infor mal meeting of railroad men in the employ of the Philadelphia and Beading Bailroad Company, held in Beading, the recent "whisker" order of Superintendent Ban zano was severely criticised and ridiculed. It was pointed out that Austin Corbiu, President of the railroad company has whiskers; that Mr. Keim, President of the Beading Coal and Iron Company, has plen ty of hair on his face; that Mr. McLeod, vice President and General Manager of the railroad company, wears a fierce, black mustache; that General Superintendent Sweigard has a beard; that Superin tendent B. B. Cable has a full and flowing gray beard; that George E. Baer, one of the board of managers and Mr. Cor bin's right hand man, wears a beard and mustache; in fact every leading official of both corporations has hair on his face. Meanwhile the barbers -of Beading have issued circulars that in view of the recent whisker order and the dull coal trade along the Philadelphia and Beading lines, the price for shaving has been fixed at 10 cents, or "13 shave tickets for $1," cash in ad vance. QUEER ST0RI OF DIVORCE. A Brooklyn Man Sued by n Woman Who Saya He I Her Hasband. tKFZCIJLt, TELEGHAM TO THE DISPATCH.1 Beookxtn, N. Y., January 18. Mr. Meyer Edelmuth is a wealthy Brooklyn tailor, who lives with his wife and four children in a fine house at 206 Union street. He came from Germany 28 years ago, leav ing a sweetheart behind him. As soon as he had made a good start in business he sent for her, and their marriage took place in this city, nearly 23 years ago. Mr. Edel muth, however, has just become the de fendant in a suit for absolute divorce, the plaintiff being a fine looking Bussian, who calls herself Mrs. Judasa Chaimoff. She asserts that in March, 1869, she was married in the town of Minst, in Bussia, to Motte Chaimoff, a young Bussian, who abandoned her in a few months and fled to America. Five years ago she rame here to look for her runaway husband, and she alleges she has at last discovered him in the person of Mr. Meyer Edelmuth, the Brooklyn clothier. Mr. Edelmuth repudiates the alleged re lationship, and says that the divorce pro ceedings are a scheme to blackmail him. Mrs. Chaimoff says that the proof of their marriage will be forthcoming. A Prosperous Corporation Habtfobd, January 18. The general prosperity of the country is strikingly evi denced by the growth in market values of real estate owned by insurance companies, always very conservatively estimated. For one example this cause has increased the assets of the Travelers, of Hartford, to $11, 28,000; its surplus to $2,365,000. The fact that money has been easier is also shown by the heavy increase in new life insurance. The company above reported $8,600,000 in 1889. AS GOOD AS GOLD.

Wild Flowers to Bet Off a Christmas Din ner at Lee's Ferry. WELL EECElYfiD BY THE M0EM0KS CORBESFONDENCE Or TBS DISPATCH Lee's Febbt, Abiz., Christmas Day, 18S9. The exploring expedition under Chief Engineer Stanton, which left Denver November 25 to complete the exploration of the canons of the Colorado river, and survey a railroad line down that river to the Gulf of California, reached this place at the mouth of Pariah creek on the evening of December 23. Everything has been most prosperous with the expedition so far, and everyone was made happy by finding num erous letters and papers at the Lee's Ferry postoffice from their friends at home. We ar6 now enjoying a Christmas rest before resuming our trip down the river. On arriving at GreenBiver station.'by the Denver and Bio Grande railway, we loaded our three boats upon wagons, and, with our stores and five teams, started overland for the mouth of Crescent creek, on the Colo rado river, about 50 miles below the junc tion of the Grand and the Green, and four miles above Dandy Crossing. The distance by wagon is 120 miles, the most of the way across a barren sand desert, with roads, as they describe them out here, "four spokes deep;" that is, the sand is so soft that the ends of four spokes of every wheel are buried out of sight all the time. We were nine davs on the road. and. with heavy wheeling, poor teams and lazy team sters and a drizzling ram nearljr all the time, it was anything but an enjoyable part of our journey. The only bright spot in it was the little Mormon settlement of Graves' Valley, on the Dirty Devil river, about 35 miles from its mouth, where there are some 12 or 15 Mormon families, seemingly pros perous and happy, upon 1,000 to 1,600 acres of rich, tillable land. Here we replenished our supplies with beef, mutton, onions, etc., and were treated most kindlvbv the settlers. We reached Colorado river well tired out, on Friday, December 6. The lastSO miles was down the Canon -of Crescent creek, which, as it approaches the river becomes very narrow and is some 1,500 to 2,000 feet deep. The road is for some distance along the bed of the creek, the walls rising up from the very stream. 'fighting high -watee. There had been much rain and we were fearful of some danger, but we came through with onr boats and supplies in safety. The next day, however, as the teamsters were going back with their empty wagons, they were caught in the narrowest part of the canon by a rush ot waters, and all swept down together for some 600 or 800 yards, and tumbled into one mass of wagons, horses, harness and men. The men escaped with only bruises and a very cold bath, but before they could cut the harness and re lease the animals, two of their horses were : drowned. Unusual floods were experienced all over thissection at the same time. Here on Pariah oreek, on the same day as the acci dent to our teams, a sheep herder was caught Dy tne storm on the lowlands and had some 1,000 to 1.600 sheep drowned before he could drive them to the hills. We remained in camp at Crescent creek three days, rigging our boats, packing the provisions in rubber bags and preparing for the river journey. On the morning of De cember 10 we set sail in three of the best equipped and stanchest boats that ever at tempted to run the Colorado canons. Each boat was loaded, including the four men, withabout 3,000 pounds, and yet the v floated as lightly and were handled as easily as boats of half their weight, as they are pro vided with so many airtight compartments to secure safety in the rough waters of the rapids. The sail through Glen Canon from Dandy Crossing to Lee's ferry, a distance of 150 miles, was one continued pleasure ride, with dancing waves and swift currents, car rying us through beautiful glens and by grass covered plats, and between grand tow ering cliffs and massive battlements of old red sandstone, fr6m 1,000 to 3,000 feet high. beauties of glen canon. About 100 miles of Glen Canon, at its lower end, comes nearer being a true canon than any of the canons of the Colorado river; that is, a deep, clear trench cut through the solid rock, with almost perpen dicular walls on either side, and in some places for short distances the gorge is very narrow 250 to 300 feet and the jiver fills it from wall to wall, but in far the greater part it is lrom l,8UU to 3,000 feet wide, and the river flows from side to side, leaving beautilul glens, broad meadows and long winding flats covered with grass, bushes, willows and oaks, and many of them occu pied with large numbers ot Arizona auail. Even at this season of the year, though all the leaves are off the willows and oaks, these flats and glens abound in wild flowers in full bloom, and the young, new grass is from 2 to 3 inches tall. The railroad line for the greater part of the way occupies the level land on these flats, or upon the tables at the foot of the cliffs, and for only short distances is forced to make its roadbed in the river under the perpendicular walls. On the last day in the canon we experi enced quite a surprise. For ten miles above Pariah creek the water is usually like a lake, with very light current, but last Mon day the wind was blowing a perfect gale up stream and rolling up regular sea waves from 3 to 4 feet high, so that our crews had hard work pulling down stream, and our boats were tossed about from side to side bv the wind asit was driven back, first by one and then by the other wall ot the canon. A BOAT IN A TVHIBL-SVIND. In one instance, one of the boats was caught almost in a whirlwind and turned several times around betore the steersman could get control ot it. Everyone, how ever, was inspired by the anticipation of mail from home, and with three hours' hard polling we reached Lee's Ferry and went in camp ior jnristmas. During our two weeks iu Glen Canon, Mr. Kims completed his series of photo graphs and Mr. Hislop, our assistant engi neer, completed the railroad survey to this point, which had been left last Bummer 30 miles above here. We found many more mineis at work on the placer mines and many prospectors allalong the river. The advertisement this section received by our expedition of last summer seems to have brought many fortune seekers to this canon, ana we found several parties of capitalists examining the placers with a view of investing. We also noticed several new plants of machinery brought in this fall for working the mines. AN EXPLOBEB OF '69. At one of the mines we met and had a long talk with old Jack Sumner, who was Major Powell's right hand man in his jour ney through the Grand Canon in 1869, and to whom, perhaps more than any other man, the success of that expedition was due. When we told Sumner we were going to look for a railroad line through the Grand Canon he said: "You will find it, and a good one, too." We gave him the greatest want of his life a ping of chewing tobacco for he was entirely out Like the old war horse, after examining our boats end talking of the trip, Jack, though his hair is as white as snow, was all excitement and very anx ious to accompany us down through the Grand Canon. If the weather we have been having is a sample of the usual winter weather on the Colorado river, the railroad when built will be the favorite wjnter route to the Pacific. It has been almost continuous sunshine every day, with a few gentle showers of rain. The thermometer has never registered lower than 32 at 6 o'clook in the morning, and at noon each day has ranged from 50 to 65 in the shade. THE CLIFF irVVELLEBS. At almost every camp we have picked many varieties of wild flowers in full bloom. The various members of the party, especially those from the far East, have been very dili gent in searching for and examining the nu-1 merous remains of Cliff Dwellers' houses and forts found up almost every side of the canon coming into the river, and some fine specimens of pottery have been found, though none in perfect condition. Our Christmas dinner came near finishing the whole party. To show our sympathiz ing friends in the East that we are not quite starving, I append our menu: Soups. Ox Tall. Tomato. Chicken. Fish. Colorado River Salmon. Meats. Boast Turkey. Boast Beef. Ox Heart Braised Chicken. Game Pie. Vegetables. Mashed Potatoes. Stewed Unions. Tomatoes. Klce. Potato Salad. Wheat Bread. Corn Bread.

Arizona Kalslns. Nuts. Bent's Crackers and Utah cheese. Havana Cigars. Turkish Cigarettes. The potatoes, onions, apples, pears, peaches, raisins, nuts and the beef were all raised on the banks of the Colorada river. THE FEOFLE THET MEET. We had the pleasure of having dine with us Mr. Al Huntington, an old Californian '49er, and Mr. Warren M. Johnson and his "wive" (each reader may make that last word as much plural as his individual fancy shall dictate,) but our cook insisted in drawing the line at the "wive" and cutting of the children. Just here let me say that nowhere can you find a more kindly and perfect eentleman than Mr. Warren M. Johnson, the Postmaster at Lee's Ferry; a devout Mormon, and a man who is honestly sincere and sincerely honest, and Mrs. John son a most kindly and coQrteous lady. It has been my fortune to meet some of the most perfect gentlemen and kindest-hearted men and women among the Mormons of Northern Arizona and Southern Utah, and especially is our whole Darty indebted to the many kindnesses of Bishop L. C. Mari ger, of Kanab. LOST IN MABBLE CANON. Lee's Ferry seems to have been destined for most of our pleasures. We spent last uourtnoi juiy here, and at that time the whole party sat around the celebration table. Just six days later President Frank M. Brown lost his life in Marble Canon, 40 miles below here. As I sat at the table to day the sad thoughts of July 10 crept into my mind and I involuntarily looked down toward the head of the dark canon, with a wonder what there might be in store for us in its unknown depths, and, as I sat gazing, there arose, as it were, from the very depths of the canon itself, the most wonderful and gorgeous sunset that I have ever witnessed, even in this lajd of wonder and beauty. And as it rose in its splendor of scarlet and crimson fire and hung like a curtain over the turrets of the Echo Peaks and lit up the marvelous coloring and intricate terraces of the Vermilion Cliffs I conld only read in its beauty and splendor a harbinger of safety and success. Teamp. A Swede's Experience With the Croup. An honest Swede tells his story in plain, but unmistakable language for the benefit of the public: One of my children took a severe cold and got the croup. I gave her a teaspoonful of Chamberlain's cough rem edy, and in five minutes later I gave her one more. By this time she had to cough up the gathering in her throat Then she went to sleep, and slept good ior 15 minutes. Then she got up and vomited; then she went back to bed, and slept good for the remainder of the night She got the croup the second night, and I gave the same remedy with the same good results. I write this because I thought there might be some one in tho same need and not know the true merits of this wonderful medicine. Chables A. Thompseen, Des Moines", Iowa. Fifty-cent bottles.

Our neighbors cannot understand how it is that we send out so many pianos;' it is a constant stream coming in and going out every day. The secret is explained by our ciuo or co-operaiive system our pianos are sold before we get them. The demand is so great that we are compelled to have them shipped in large quantities to keep up with our orders. A few weeks ago we con tracted vwith the Everett Piano Co. to sup ply a club of 350 with pianos. We got the instruments so cheap, and they are such bargains, that onr club members cannot wait on the weekly drawings, but are taking the pianos home and payinfor them. Some all casb,some ou a large cash payment down and the balance on short time, others are paying $1 per week and waiting on the drawings. They will not have long to wait, as we have already delivered almost one third of the whole number contracted for. This week we deliver a fine carved rosewood case Cabinet Grand Everett Piano, to mem ber No. 29, on payment of $1 per week. Now, if you want a piano, don't miss this opportunity.

BEKEFIT TO THE WORKING FEOPLE The popular concert idea is working bravely. From all sides come expressions in hearty sympathy with the movement agitated bv The Dispatch. The Exposi tion management has taken hold of the matter in business-like earnest, and Man ager Johnston was sent to New York a day or two ago to make arrangements for engag ing some first-class band or orchestra, or both. It may be interesting in this connection to note the accomplishment of similar aims so remote and in so different a city as StPeters burg and by no less a personage than Anton Bubinstein. This is how Mr. McArthur, the great musician's secretary, iu a letter to the American Musician, speaks of the move ment inaugurated last October. Shortly after this concert Bubinstein's pet idea was accomplished in the first of the Popu lar Bymphonr Concerts, given under the emi nent pianist's own direction. Bubinstein's aim in these was concerts of classical music at pop ular prices. In order that the general public, and especially the music students, should have an opportunity of becoming acquainted with the best music literature. Of course, the great difficulty was where these concerts conld be held. For, as in other towns. St Petersburg has to pay dearly Ior halls which for the most part stand empty, owing to the high prices asked for themr The proprietor of the circus, however, offered at moderate terms bis hall, and Bubinstein at once held a rehearsal to test the acoustic powers, for the orchestra had to be placed in the half of the arena, no other space being forthcoming. The scheme worked, and the concerts are now permanently arranged for every Sundav afternoon during the musical season. Bubinstein cannot be too warmly thanked for this splendid idea of his so gallantly accomplished. Iho circus, an enormous building, is rilled with thousands of enthusiastic music lovers at each concert in fact there is never a place to be had late in the week, all being en gaged beforehand. Iwo of the upper tiers are filled to overflowing at 10 cents a head, while the best chairs in the house, luxuriously up bolstered in red velvet, don't cost halt a dollar. In fact Rubinstein has added to the material and artistic enjoyment of thousands in St Petersburg by this nappy idea, and the younc and splendid orchestra of old conservatory students, in playing at reasonable prices, so tar as St. Pe tersburg is concerned, makes Itself thereby literally a national benefactor. The great body oi tne woraing puouc, exciuuea irom mosr concerts for want of funds and time on week days, is amused and kept from socialism, the youths are instructed, and yonnp artists mate rially benefited by this chance offered to them of exhibiting their powers before an enthusi astic and not over critical audience.

We have, as It if, too few opportunities of hearing chamber music. Referring to the appearance of the Boston Symphony Orchestra in New York last Tues day, the Bun of the following morning gives this unequivocal praise: "Last evening's per formance once more established the fact that the band, under Mr. Arthur Nikisch's direc tion, is far and away the most admirably bal anced and best disciplined organization now In existence on this side of the Atlantic. In the interpretation of dramatic music, perhaps.more vivid effects have now and tben been attained at the expense, often, of symmetry and finish, but as regards volume and richness of tone, delicacy of execution, and absolute precision, no work that has been done for years by other orchestras can be cited as having even ap proached its happiest efforts."
