POLYGAMY AS A PART OF THE SAINTS' REVEALED RELIGION. A Third Wife to Take Down tha Air ol the Second Tho Married Mormon Al ways In Society Iooklnff for Another I'artner. Mormon plural marriage is both overrated and underrated as a Mtrt of the Mormou polity. It is overrated as the wbolo of the lystem, and without which it will dissolve or will be unobjectionable. It is underrated as u practice not essentially belonging to their system, and which they will easily abandon. In the first place, if polygamy were to cease, all tho objections would re main to the Mormon system as a theocratic dominion of absolute iowors, hostile to all other people, and by its very unture in an tagonism to tho national government. In the becond place, plurality of wives has been given to tho saints by reveiatioa Uirough tho prophot and founder of their church, cor roborated by the Jewish (Scriptures, esom plilled by the patriarchy of ttie chosen race, whoso daily walk was cloo with God, made a Mormon duty by giving a higher leing in heaven to tho saint and his wives in projKjr tiou to thf.-ir number, elevatl by tho suffer in.1; of persecution, and strongly worked into tho social life. FIRST, SECOND AND TUIUD. If they would give up polygamy, nil objec tions to n Mormon state would remain. But they will not give it up. It is so much a part of "their revealed religion that tho first wife cannot refuse consent to another without re nouncing tho church. Tho system makes lir gjve tho second and tho following to her hiubaud in th sovi et rites of the Endowment house. And she finds it good to bring in a third to take down tho airs of tbe second, and so on. Having had her turn in tho man's love, the takes her turn in intriguo of spite anJ revenge. And tho man, oblige by re ligious duty, watched over by the church authorities in case he can support another wife and does not gather her, and promised a higher being in the next world, where his wi vs are counted to his glory, finds also more social ploasiires in plurality of wives in this world than is generally (bought. Tho common Gentile idea of the state of polygamous marriage is of the Bible patriarchs, and it is elevated above the social part. It thinks not of tho difference between the monogamous marriage, by which tho jnan "settled down," and the polygamous marriage in which tho man still continues a mi-rrying man is more in tho market than a single man, and is soon looking for new loves, instead of patriarchally presiding over his household. Thus it is that tho married Mor mon is a society buck, and that he continues a buck in society as long as he livvs. The sf-c'n-ty customs are formed to promote this. The theater ana iuo "Social Lai" ti balls and other parties, ure regular menus. Danc ing is a means of jolygamous grace. Eti quette requires the saint to dance once with each rii. and then he is free to go for the 'maidens, leaving the wives iq LeGWtjj; tbe wall. ALWAYS A MARRYING MAX. It is dilBcuit to conceive tho social differ? ence made by a system in which the married man continues a marrying man and is al ways on the lookout for another. "Without jtii? ppipptinction he goes about as a gallant or lover. He luus u courte'uip t any lijfetlj and heat, while his wives are "enjoying themselves" at home. This liberty has evolved the custom of long courtships. How &an 9 h wives when the man dresses in his best and goes uoiutui ck)ijg to de vour. They cannot ask him where be has spent the evening. He is doing a saint's re ligious Jty, and is thereby exalting their otato of being in the next world. And tho good man makes religious duty a carnal pleasure, This works a great deal of court ing and many marrying chances to tho girls. The old bucks and the young bachelors com fiete for them. And they accept the situa tion with alacrity, each thinking she will be the favorite wife and enjoying her triumph over the j.etfc. This is of polygamy at Salt Lake City, and among the rich and well to do. But it has all degrees and phases according to human conditions aud human nature, down to that in which the taking of another wife is the addition "of another eurut i$ supporf thz man. If or is this limited to tbe poor. Naturally it hardens the heart of tho man toward his wives, makes him insensible to their teeiiugs, and puts them into a lower sphere. But besides being made a religious duty, it engages the pride, pleasure, passion and i'itrest of the man. And they have no doubt of its iigbi5in?s-j. In conversation with one of the pioneers on their religion, tho remark that polygamy did not seem es seutiaj, and that the dropping of it might promote peace ffnd their welfare, brought the impregnable answer: vDo you believe the Bible?" They are a fearfully biblical people, Mormonism is a bigger problem than is thought. It Jja come to stay. Sam uel Rockwell Reed in' Cincinnati Commerpfal Gazette. Unhappy I'aclll'y of .Expression. Some peoph have j?uclj an unhappy facility of expression, combined with s.liiho4 meth ods cf thought, that they are likely to in dulge in'speech which it would ''puzzle a Dutchman' to translate. Tho "History of Weare, New Hampshire," refers to a loqua cious townswoman who reversed tho old maxim, aud "went ahead" without being sure she was right. One pf lier stories was to the effect that her husband sowed some flax, which eamo up aud grew, until tbe frost struck it and blighted every spear. Then tho worms took it and ate it all up; then the drought took it aud killed it all, and when chey camo to pull it they didn't have half a crop. After t'lat thjy rpttad it, and her Lusbaud done out some of it, and it wa'n't good for nothing. Then they let it lay a year, and it was tho best ilaap she ever see. Sho used some of it to make cloth for her husbaud's shirts. "It was cotton linen cloth. It wag tow warp, and tho warp was fillin, and tbe blue ?a3 yallcr, and it was dyed in huckleberry, aud it was tMck as the table.

GOSLINGS AS FISH BAIT. Ilemarkable Experience of a St. txui Sportsman Uow to Catch Haas. A letter from a St. Louis gentleman, w ho has been for some time up at Green Lake, Wis., has just been received here, and it con tains the account of a fishing exploit that is remarkable. "I went out early the other evening," writes the gentleman, "m the hopes of encountering some of the famous pickerel of this resort when they were just coming up from their mossy beds after a morsel for breakfast. I trolled for half a mile without a strike. I was passing a (rm bouse, in front of which were an old gootc wid a lot of goslings a month v so olJ. They were swimming around, dipping down under tho water, and chattering away in high glee. Jut as I was opposite them there was a rplush and one of the goslings d.sap Ioared. Almost instantly another one went in the same way, IJ.h mother jjooso never seeming to heed their n!.- nre. I thought it strange, aril ptiltei over toward the flock, but before I reached them three more wero pulled under the .Miter. I stopped rowing cloo to the spot where the fowU had di.sapjeared, and wutched from close range to seo if I could discover what agent was at work destroying the farmer's goslings. One of the little fel lows was separated from tho other three, for t:at'sall that weie left. I was close to the tiuglij gosling, watching him, when I saw a monstrous black bass shoot through the wa ter, grab the bird I had my eye on, and give the water a flirt with his tail as ho disap peared with his breakfast. Beforp tho sur faco had becorne calm or my astonishment hud been overcome, tho remaining three of the gosling brood wereiu the capacious maws of the hungry bass. "By this time the old goose, who had been tranquilly swimming &bont, began to think that something was wrong, and when no little ones came at her call sho became frantic I stood right there for some time, sxpecting that some audacious bass w-ou!l walk off with the od goose, but they didn't. "J went up to. tha farm house, told tho futo t f the goslings, and was met with no exprcs k ions of surprise. " 'That's no uncommon thing,' said tho far mer. 'I'll bet I've lost a thousand young gecso just in that way. I thought those were too big for lia-vi balk keep niy young geesg in a ond back of the houso until they get big enough to take care of themselves, as I thought tho ones you saw gobbled up were.' "An idea struck me, aud I bargained with t'uo farmer for threo goslings from tho pond back of the house. I would fool t lie bass. He soon came in with three !ics, dqn r.y little follow;? and i-Mok one, tied my line about the center of his body, and fastened a gang of hooks under the goslings's b:eat so they hung down about three inches. Then I took a long rod from tho boat, nttachpd the line and gently dropped Up swimming 'bait into tho water. Tho'jittle gosling snam around f-jr about half a minute, when there was a rush, a tug at tho line, and I had my hungry li.sli safely hooked. It was a whopper, and it took me twenty minutes to bring him tip to the boat. Tho bass had struck the hooks, cs I intended, before ho reached the gosling, and 1 rtticuegdixl in landing thirty big ,)r..,-s with my fhiMe before they wcrju-ed up. Thi-y were the biggest luiss i over sa w bo foro, atTl-aging; uiilo over six pounds apiece, one of them weighing nine and a quarter pounds. When I go after bass now yon may be sure I go with goslings for bait." St. Louis Globe-Democrat, Shopping Manners lu Purls.

Olivo Logan in Boston Transcript The Value of Good Ink. The health department of New York city calls attention tq tha fact that a large pro portion of records of births, marriages and deaths received for filing are written in ani line inks, which will become illegible in a few years, As the originals are now Ted as received, pertifioates written in these fugitive inks will become sheets of blank paper in tight or ten years, and valuable records will thon be lost. It is said at the office of the registrar of yita statistics, tbat uuni-ters aro more careless in making certificates of mar riages than the doctors in reporting births or deaths. On many occasions the b'anks have been filled in with a pencil and had to be re turned to be written in ink. Ministers are also partial to colored inks, unmindful, doubtless, that the iuk wil fade away in a few years. Deputy County Clerk Gilroy said that many . of the Topers filed in the county clerk's office were written with poor ink, but as a record was made of nearly everything filed their value was retained. "It is a mighty good idea, however," said Mr. Gilroy, "for the newspapers to call the attention of tho people to the necessity of using good black ink in executing legal and official papers. Colored inks are no good and wcro only made to suit a woman's fancy. I have never seen any court records written with aniline ink. I think blacl: ink is used in ererr court in the city."

The Original Inventor of Hie Klectrio Light A Lost Idea. Anybody that chooses and knows how can inuko Incandescent electric lights npw. The only jK-rsoa who had any right to prevent them has been asleep for a good many years at the lottom of the Atlantic ocean. Most people think Edisun invented these lights, and so he did, but he was not the first. Somo years ago, a young man in advance of his age, by tho name of Starr, came to Mr. George Peu liody with a new invention, asking advice ami assistance. Ml'. Peabody was in it only a I)hilautliropst but a nhi-owd man of busi ;js, He saw nt once the possibilities of the electric light, and gladly furnished Starr with tho means to go to England and take out a patent, after consulting experts and scientists there. In those davs every new discovery had to have the stamp of Kuglands scientific apprftval to. make its way elsewhere. Mr. Starr, like many a genius before and since, was by no means an experienced and cautious business man, so Mr. Peaeody en gaged a man named King to go with him as his business agent and to conduct the nego tiations. Tho two men set sail for England, had a prosiero.us YQ) g, and met with a flattering rxeption. The invention wns exhibited to tho first authorities iu the kingdom, was care fully scrutinized by thein, and was unani mously pronounced to be a brilliant and suc cessful one. Tho twO V.'en l-enuiincd for some tune iu England, and received nothing but tiOiisidelvation and encouragement-. A patent for the invention was obtained, but by a usage ullowed by English patent law, was is sued in the namef the solicitor, Mr. King, instead of that of tho inventor, Mr. Starr. The unsuspecting inventor does r.ot appear to Lavo observed this, or made any objec tion, or at least there' is no record that ho did Svv Ilia two men started on their return To Ainerit'-tt. They had been at sea but a very few days when Mr. Starr was found one morn;ng in his berth dead, from somo myste rious and unexplained cause. His body was buried at sea, and Lis ooinpukii (Aiitinued bis journey, ami piatnted himself to Mr. pabYKly with his repork That gentleman listened attentively to his account of the journey, with its various business transac tions 'and its tragic finale. On concluding his narrative Mr. King asked th millionaire if he would rnntinuo o baok up the inveu VioU with his money and influence. Mr. Peabody's reply was to rise, open the door of his private office where the interview had taken place, and sternly point toward it. The discomfited attorney 4 without a word, vent out tm-.ougb, "tho iloor- into oblivion. And that is tho reason why Edison had to invent the electric light all over again. The invention lay in a stale mate, as it were. It was credited to King, and he alono could de velop it, but he had disappeared. Jj. was not known f ilj J7 I'uaj tStaxr was the real in -vent'oj'", and even then, as he was dead, and the patent issued to another man, nothing could be done. Finully Edison went to work on his own hook, and thought out his scheme; but the highest English com ia iiuvo just de tijlcd iut't tbe King"pati:ui anticipated his and mukes them invalid. And as the earlier patent has lapsed, tho idea, under this de cision, is common property. Once a Week. So. the Si,uiy vcfc-, Keats was. a great feachpr and ruler. He was also a tremendous (logger.
