The "Ceopcratlv Store" A Description

Services Snbjecta Treated or
j from the Mormon Pulpit.
i HaYing a fewpurrhuees to make we sallied
forth, end oar first exploration was of the
bops, the most important of which is the
aw "co-operative store," which bears the
following wgn: "Holiness to the Lord,
Eton's Co-oporatire Mercatile Institntion."
A largo eye is painted on the sign, with gilt
rays diverging fjora it in every direction.
Here our wants were quickly and satisfac
torily supplied. We found the prices of dry
goods alxnit the same as in San Francisco
and Chicago.
Our next vL.lt was to the tabernacle, where
the religious services are held. The building
is surrounded by a high wall which incloses a
very large space, withiu which the endow
ment home and the new temple, then in pro
cess of election, also stand. The tabernacle
is an enormous building, elliptical in shape,
built of wood and with a round roof, sup
ported on many columns which surround the
exterior of the building. There are an in
credible numtier of exits, and though the
building holds 12,000 people, we were assured
that in one minuto and a half it could be
emptied. Shabby as was the exterior of the
unpaiutea building, tbe interior wan even
more dreary. The roof was thickly hung
with garlands which were green tix years ago
when they ivcro hung in honor of someHxrial
ceremony, and pajicr flowers of the same date
were scattered profusely about. There is a
wide gallery running round three .sides of tho
building, and tho floor slopes in .such a man
ner as to allow those sitting in the rear to
command a good view of the pulpits. The
body of the tabernacle is occupied by ordinary
pews, but in tho middle of the building is a
large tank, final tied by four terra cotta heart
which we were told were lions.
During the services a fountain. springs from
the -center of tho tank. I could not learn th
significance of this novel feature, if signifi
cance it has. One lady told me that they
"thought it a pleasant thing to have a foun
tain playing during services, so they had
it" Were the talernacle a temperance
stronghold, this libation would have seemed
more appropriate. At one end of tho build
ing is a platform with three tables, one above
the other, which are called pulpits. At the
highest one sit tho president and two of his
councillors; the second one is reserved for the
twelve ajMj-jtlcs, and on the lowest tho com
inuuiou is administered every Suiidaj', water
being substituted for wine.
. On each side of the pulpits were a number
of benches, which tho guardian told us 'were
reserved for thoso of the brethren who were
bard of hearing." At the back of the plat
form stands the organ, which is the
glory and pride of the viints, who
claim that it is only second in sie
among Amorican organs. It is really
very handsome, reflecting great credit on the
native designer, for the entire organ was
made at Salt Lake City Tho acoustic proper
ties of the talicriiuclc are very remarkable.
Standing at the extreme end of the gallery,
we board a pin dropped upon the platform
and tho sound of a low whimper with jierfect
distinctness. At a convenient point stand
several large larrels of water with tin cups
attached, for the benefit of tbe thirsty ones in
the assembly. The religious exercises are
held in the tabernaclo on Sunday. They con
sist of the singing of hymns, a prayer fixmi
the president and a sermon from some one of
the apostlt-3.
The subjects treated from the Mormon pul
pit cover a very wide range, including all
temporal as well as spiritual pointa of Inter
est. A writer on this subject says: "In Uie
great tabernaclo one will hear sermons, or
advice on the culture of sorghum, infant bap
tism, upon the best manure for cabbages,
upon the erever8nce of tho saints, upon the
wickedness of the skimming of milk lieforeits
alo, upon the liest melhod of cleaning water
ditches, ujkjii lied bug poison, upon the price
of real estate, upon the teething of children,
upon the martyrs and persecutions of the
church, terrible denunciations of Gentiles and
the enemies of tbe Mormons, upon olive oilas
a cure for measles, ujwn the ordination of the
priesthood, upon the character of Melchisidec,
upon altstinence from plug tobacco, uikhi
chignons, upon twenty-five yard dresses, ujiou
plural marnasp, etc5
leaving the tabernacle, our next visit was
to the new temple, a beautiful building then
in process of erection. The material used in
its construction is a poculinr black and white
gran i to quarried from one of the mountains
near by. This edifice is to be reserved for
the "more sacred rites of baptism and endow
ment," we learned, marking that the cere
mony of sealing or endowment, for so they
designate the marriage ceremony, is consid
ered by them more sacred than tho services
in praise of the Creator. The ceremony of
endowment Ls one that no Gentile is allowed
to witness. On asking one of the Mormon
ladies whom we met the nature of its rites,
she said- "The ceremony of sealing differs
from the marriage ceremonies in the world
in this particular that with us it unites the
husband and wife throughout all eternity,
instead of being only for time, and conse
quently is termed celestial marriage. The
wife's vow of obedience to her husband is
not Included in the ceremony at all, so that
It differs in this particular also." We were
anxious to hear concerning the marriage gar
ments worn on these occasions, but our Mor
mon menu on mis jwint was not so com
municative. Cor. Boston Transcript

The Infant's Inheritance.
It is no new assertion this, that we are tbe

The Accident Insurance Craie.
Accident insurance has made a steady,
running growth during tho present year, and
seems to be a popular craze. 1 know of can
vassers who are taking in a-s high as twenty
policies a day. All railroad nun are going
into it, and I find the workmgmen following.
Men who can carrv reerular insurance on
their lives only take accident iwlicies when
going on journeys, but poor men. who can
not afford regular premiums want some
guarrantee of support if disahlcl. Speaking
about insurance, this branch of insurance has
gone into many peculiar ramifications. Did
you know that railroads insure more than
other corjK.ration-:
Railroad cars are all insured, and tho com
panies figure very close so close that there
is not much profit in it, the only inducement
being the large amount that can be taken,
owing to the to small quantity of property
tliat can be destroyed at onetime. Then
there are tornado policies that have a large
area of country to cover. When a cyclone
strikes a district, the company's agents catch
all the farmers. There are also tornado com
panies, which insure against loss by wind.
Thero used to !kj live stock companies, but
several of them failed so easily that the others
lost confidence. It was easy enough to insure
an animal, but it was not so easy to identify
a dead beef or sheep as the sanioone insured.
Then you can get window plate glass insured
well, I may say, anything of any value.
Glolto Democrat.
An amusing encounter between one of the
banks and a prominent business man is being
told at tho clubs with some unction. Mr. X.,
tho gentleman in question, was called from
home on business, and left with his clerk a
blank check for any contingencies which had
not been provided for. During his absence a
messenger from tho bank appeared with a
draft, and although offered the check, de
clined to receive anything but the money.
The matter caused the clerk some inconveni
ence, and his employer, on his return, was
deeply indignant at tho affair. He waited a
few days until another draft came through
the same bank, when he went to the snb
treasury, procured the amount due in silver
dollars, and turned the coin over to the bank.
Soon another draft came along, this time for
$15,000. This also was paid in silver dollars,
the bank being pretty well filled up with the
sacks of specie.
When a third draft was due Mr. X. applied
to the sub-treasury for the amount in silver
and was refused. He was naturally indig
nant, perceiving plainly enough that the re
fusal was instigated D3- the president of the
bank, and he protested that, as an officer of
the government, the sub-treasurer had no
right to refuse to sell him as many silver dol
lars as he wished to buy at auy time. The
refusal was persisted in, however, aud Mr. X.
immediately sent a complaint to Secretary
Manning at Washington, the answer to which
arrived in due course of time, stating that
the action of the sub-treasurer was illegal
aud unauthorized.
BASKETS OK SILVER.
In the meantime, as the draft of course had
to be paid at once, Mr. X. had gone to the
different banks, collected the amount of sil
ver that ho wanted, piling it up loose in cot
ton baskets, lie ascertained that be was not
obliged to take the uvmey himself to the
tauk, aud when the messenger appeared
with the draft ho presented him with the im
mense pile of silver, remarking that as he
had not been able to procure the money from
the sub-treasury in sealed and stamped sacks,
he supposed it would have to be counted.
"But how am I to carry all tbatH the mes
senger cried in dismay.
Mr. X replied that he really could not say,
and that while a hack might servo his visitors
turn, he really did not regard tho matter as
any affair of his. The messenger had a hack
called, and with assistance got hLs precious
liasket to the sidewalk.
-What is all thati' demanded the hackmau,
eying tho heavy baskets.
"Why, that's silver."
"Do you take me for an expressman ' asked
the driver. "Hi, there, get up!" and away
he drove, leaving tho unfortunate young man
in a worse dilemma than ever.
The messenger managed, however, to get
the specie to tho bank, where it was presum
ably counted: and in due time still another
draft upon Mr. X came to deh'ght tho offi
cers of the bank. Once more Mr. X. pre
sented himself at the sub-treasury, aud once
more, despite Secretary Manning's letter, his
demand for silver was refused. This time ho
sent a telegram to Washington, aud with
great promptness there came back a dispatch
Itcremptorily ordering the delivery of tho dol
lars. The money was paid to the bank, and
feeling by tins time a little weary of the af
fair, and probably satisfied tliat he had amply
revenged the discourtesy shown to him in the
original transaction. Mr. X. let the matter
drop here, after notifying all hii corre
spondents that he did not in future wish to
receive any paper through the offending
bank. Boston Cor. Providence Journal.

I THE ART OF "MAKING UP."
IIow an Ac-tor Uidcs His Mustache and
Curia Value of ;rnae l'aint.
Dion Boucicault is a master of the art of
"making up," and in half an hour can renew
his youth in tbe dn-ssing room. He does not
use a great deal of paint, but he knows just
where and how to put it on. Plenty of red
over the whole face, dceiened on the cheeks,
is the first requisite. Then the lines around
tbe eyes are lightened and apparently filled
up. A curly wig covers his head and his long
hair Ls tucked up out of sight
Boucicanlt never shaves off hLs mustache,
but nobody can detect airy signs of hair on
the upjerlip of Conn in the play. Some
actors use what is called a mustache mask, a
thin piece of rubber or parchment that can
be stuck ujon the upper lip and covered.
Boucicault's method is more artistic and re
quires greater skill. He merely paints his
mustache the color of his face and sticks it
down flat ujwn his lip. The ends serve to fill
up the deej est parts of the lines running from
the nose to tho corners of the mouth. That
Ls all the artificiality of the face, but the
grease iwint is applied with such accurate
knowlege of the offects of the footlights that
the man's face is completely metamorphosed,
and he seems to have drank the waters of tho
fountain of youth. But paint will not con
ceal the gout, and when that gets into Conn's
toe he does not jump about lively. His legs
look steady and plump in spite of age and
the rheumatism.
There again is art displayed. Boucicault
has a pair of stout woven tights, lined with
lamb's wool, which he wears for the double
purpose of keeping his rheumatic legs warm
and making them look like an athlete's limbs.
Tho latter effect is obtained by tho distribu
tion of the wool in varying thicknesses, so as
to fill up any natural deficiencies and give a
well rounded appearance, and the lining is
woven in the fabrics so that it cannot be
come displaced. These tights are beneath the
stockings, and their presence never would be
suspected. After the performance Conn re
tires to the dressing room arM passes a towel
over his face. hLs valet pulls off the tights and
the white haired old Gentleman once more
appears. New York Cor. Cincinnati En
quirer. Congressional Electricity.
-I think I'll take my electricity," said a
member of congress to-day, as he came out of
the house into the lobby. "I feel all worn
out; that last speech has almost exhausted
me. Won't you come alongP he asked of a
fellow member.
"I don't mind," the second congressman re
plied. "I think a little will do me good, too."
The two members got on tho elevator and
went down to the basement to take their elec
tricity. It is quite "the fad" nowadays for
the members to take electricity. An electric
apparatus has been fixed up in the engine
room in the basement, and daily the members
avail themselves of tbe opportunity to get
freshened up. Aboard, with a tooth piece of
copper, is placed beneath the great belt of the
large engine wheel, and the electricitv thus
generated is carried off bya wire attached to
Inquiries fur China.
You would be astonished to learn how often
we are asked tho question, "When does tho
next steamer leave San Francisco for China?"
or "New Zealand?" or "Australia?" People,
of course, desire to jostpone writing their let
ters or sending any correspondence until the
last lay so as to get the latest iossiblo nowsto
send. They are anxious, also, that whatever
they are sending should bo as short a timo as
possible iu transit, considering it safer in their
own hands than traveling over land or water.
The inquiries lor China come chiefly from
iuu-e miercstea in or associated with mission
ary work. In New Zealand there are many
Americans, while in that island, also, as well
as Australia, thero are many who went from
the British Isles and whovs friends since re
moved to this country. Communications bo-
mrcnirienuisouistantiuust bo very sweet,
the more so as they are by reason of the dLv
tauce limited to comparatively few. Each
year witnesses an increase in these mails, due,
suppose, in a large degree to the increasing
Chinese population we are acquiring. Super

He could not converse with Mrs. Cleveland's

sidelong glances as frequently as state dinner

his admiration for American women springs
from innate gallantry, or whether he is fall
ing into American ways. But tho coffee and

ished observing visitors who associate his ex
cellency with tea drinking alone. "Oh, of

Horse of Quality.
The highest class of carriage and saddlo
horses to be found in New York city come
principally from Kentucky, New York, Ver
mont, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Ohio and
Canada, and now and then a very choice
small lot from Virginia. The Kentucky and
Virginia horses have, as a rule, more style
and finish, or w hat is termed "quality," about
them than those from other states, for the
reason that they have a greater admixture of
thoroughbred blood in their veins. New

The Crowd at a Parisian
Position In Society.
The audience at a first night considers tbe
theatre as the house of a friend by whom
they are invited for the evening. They appear
in full dress, and as late as possible, so as not
to be the first to arrive, exchange salutations
with the other visitors, shake hands right
and left and spend the evening in trying to
cut a good figure and to chat with everybody
all round. The professional critic whispers
little sarcasms into his neighbor's ear. the
friend of the author amuses himself by re
peating aU the points and bons mots of the
piece before they are on the stage, thus spoil
ing their effect; Gentlemen pay visits to
ladies in their boxes, discussing the latest
news and epigrams; the gallery which does
not form a part of the "society" looks down
upon the assembly through opera glasses, in
order to see all notorious persons as accu
rately as possible and to observe how they
gesticulate, dross, smile, eat sweets, with
whom they are acquainted and to whom they
are polite or intimate. It is an incessant
whisper and murmur and giggle; sometimes
a tragic scene is spoiled by a sudden loud and
indiscreet laugh, or the most comic scene is
lost because a whole row of spectators have
suddenly become solemn and serious in con
sequence of the news of a death or other acci
dent which has just been announced. Every
body is busily engaged in taking care of
himself and everybody else, in presenting:
himself in the most favorable light to the
curious and the humble, and the curtain falls
without any spectator, except the critics,
having taken the slightest notice of what was
said or done on tho stage.
It is an important part of the perfect Par
isian's education to know the whole audience,
ltorring the galleries, of the first nights by
name, rank, character, and possibly also the
pecuniary state and politics of each person
present Thus the social importance of the
first night is easily explained. To be known
Ls the great object of innumerable individuals
of a great town, and to attain this object is
the greatest victory which can be gained in
the metropolitan fight for existence. And if
once a man has succeeded in being among the
.number of constant visitors on first nights he
has emerged from the darkness.
In order to become habitue, rank, money or
great influence is necessary. It may be pos
sible to get, without great difficulties, a sin
gle seat at a single first night, but this insures
by no means the advantages arising from the
regular attendance at all first representations.
The advantages are only seoured after a name
has been entered into the fsailla do service
des premieres at every fashionable theatre,
which is the register containing the name of
every person entitled to be present at first
nights.
Thefneille du service is the golden book
of Paris society. To be entered into this list
Ls tho price which is given for any great suc
C2ss. He who succeeds in making all Paris
talk of him for a moment becomes at once the
recipient of premiere cards. The member of

lawyer who had been engaged in a great case;
the architect who has completed a large edi
fice; the "grand prix" of the salon; the poli

foreground; the officer whose past is marked
by a feat of valor; neither of these need apply
ror tickets, lor they will be offered to them.
But those by whose presence the director of
the theatre doss not feel specially honored,

their name put on the list. Pall Mall Gazette.

SHADOWS.
As though I went by beckoning hands close bid
den, I neared, as when one answers calling fond.
The curtain by which "there" from "here" is
hidden
Its mesh grew gauzy, and I saw beyond.
Against its screen my eyes stared straight and
strongly.
The soul of sight searching past warp and
woof.
Until I could not think my gaze had wrongly
ld me to see of afterlife a proof.
1 seemed to see a stir of wings light smitten.
And welcome waving of white, shining hands.
But misty as the summer's message written.
On quivering air above the sun steeped lands.
And then, as though by some mysterious tension.
The warp and woof grew close my gaze before.
And darkness fell beyonc. with quick descension.
And stir of wings and hands I saw no more.

THE AWAKENING.
With lingering touches memory loves to stray
Among tbe wanderings of that sunny day.
From out its brightness flinging back a tone
That thrills me now, though twenty years have
flown
Since last I heard it; bringing back a smile
That floats like sunshine through the dim defile
Of buried years, since by her side I stood.
And dreamed and wakened in a summer wood.
Friend of my youth 1 the dream was not for me!
Not mine that smile of girlish ecstasy;
Not mine that downward look, that sweet, shy
tone;
And so I left you to wake alone.

Cupid Drowned by a Dam.
A young man who lives over on the north
side was telling some of his cronies one night
last week how his engagement with a certain
telle of Pine street happened to come to an
end.
"I was very fond of her," he said, and
thought her as sweet and pretty a woman as
I ever saw. But you chaps know I am a little
squeamish about some things. An unpleasant
thing to look at affects me a great deal, you
know. In fact, I have a weakness in that AU
rection, but I can't help it Say, did any of
you chaps everfiave a dentist's dam put into
your mouth! No! Well, then you cant ap
preciate my feelings. One day I dropped into
a dentist's office over on State street, and
there was my affianced sitting in the dentist's
chair with the dentist's dam in her mouth.
If she had seen me she would have had by!
terics. I saw her, and came near having them
myself.
"So you don't know what a dentist's dam Ls J

Consumption Among the Indian.
Of the present destroyers of the Indians,
according to Dr. Washington Matthews, the
chief is consumption. Census returns show
that, while the death rate among Europeans
is 17.T4 ier thousand, and that among Afri
cans is 172S, the rate among the Indians is
no less than 23.C; and that, while among the
whites ICC deaths in the thousand are from
consumption, and among the negroes lSb",
there are 286 among the Indians. The in
fluence of civilization has greatly increased
tbe consumption rate among the Indians the
effect seeming to be partly due to change of
diet, and partly to causes not yet understood.

Life Among; the Picturesque Greasers.
A Couple of Remarkable Border
Towns The Downtrodden and Contem
plative Burro Dancing at a Fort.
When I first came down here, from long
and bitter experience, I flew to shut tbe acci
dentally left open door, and somehow the
chair nearest the fireplace generally managed
to enfold me. But when no unpleasant
draught greeted my astonibed self, and my
face grew uncomfortably warm in my cor
ner, it slowly dawned upon me that Texas
was not Illinois a fact I had nover wasted
much brain power Iu contemplating before
and when fresh strav.be: ties, pineapples and
vegetables appeared on the daintily laid table
of my charming hostess, I felt that the world
was no longer hollow or my doll stuffed with
sawdust.
I expected to find many strange and curi
ous things here, but verily tbe half bad not
been told. The streets ore full of Mexicans
dressed in their own picturesque fashion, with
their bright colored serapes flung jauntily
over their shouldors and their broad brimmed
bats covered with silver tinsel and no end of
cord and tassel. But the picturesqueness is
confined to the uiou. For tho women wear
somliei- hued shawls drawn over their beads
and covering the lower parts of their faces.
I do not know why they take such precau
tious, for, as half of them have had smallpox,
, their l,cuuty is not of the startling or dazzling
order. T hoy generally crouch in doorways
or down in the very dust of the street when
' they are at home in their own town of Paso
j del Norte, but they bring their primitive
manners and customs with them when they
cross the river into the United States.
The bonds and feet of even the commoiMSt
Mexican are remarkably small, and such
niarvelotuly high heels as they wear! It gives
them simply no gait at ull. A Mexican man
cannot walk, anyway. He shuffles his feet
along and bends his kneo at every stop, until
if you watch him long, so loosely jointed aud
limber does he appear, you find yourself
wondering if his knees won't bend backward
with equal facility, and if his elbow is not a
ball and socket joint
LIFK AMONG THE ORBASKRS.
I was surprised to discover what a low posi
tion tho Mexican holds socially. I am told
that a negro who marries a Mexican woman
immediately loses caste among his fellows,
and is henceforth ostracized.
The long bridge across the wandering.
capricious and strictly feminine Rio Grande
connects two remarkable towns. Once on the
other ride, you seem to have stepped back
into the past a century or two. You find
adobe houses, surrounded by mud walls, in
stead of fences, and these walls surmounted
by hundreds of cactus plants in lieu of our
more modern if less effective barb wire.
It is no uncommon sight to see a two
wheeled cart with each wheel hewn out of a
solid log. Their fuel is chiefly mesquite, the
wide spreading roots of a low, stunted tree,
aud their wells are certainly unique. After
they strike water, instead of lowering a
bucket for it, they make an inclined plane
with steps in it, so that they can walk com
fortably down into the well, fill their bucket
and climb out again, so it has been wittily
said that Mexico is a country where they dig
for wood and climb for water.
The natives always use burros for carrying
thU mesquite, and they trudge behind on
foot There is something very pathetic
atiout the four footed inhabitants of Mexico.
Th-j sight of tbe pleading look in tho eyes of
a buiTO nearly makes me weep. He always
looks so downtrodden, o meek, so contem
pt ti ve. Their ponies excito equal sympathy.
They wear their beads low very low and
they always have burrs in their tails. To me
there is something appealing about a horse
with burrs in his tail, because I cannot im
agine a high spirited horse, one who had an
atom of family pride or self respect, having
them there.
Of course thus far I have only referred to
the lower class of Mexicans. The aristocracy
are very different They pay more attention
to rank and cast than we do, and have ex
quisite manners. A man may be a perfect
brute at home he may even beat his wife
but in public bis manners with both men and
women would put Lord Chesterfield to the
blush.
DAXCIXO AT A FORT.
There are Mexican troops stationed across
the river in Paso del Norte, and Fort Bliss,
about a quarter of a mile from this city, is
I tbe headquarters of the Tenth infantry; con
sequently Lthe officers exchange civilities quite
frequently. At tho first of a series of hops
given at Fort Bliss all the Mexican officers
were invited; but no one under the rank of
major was allowed to attend. One poor little
senorita who was present was very pensive,
for a hop room, and when I was asked the
cause I was told that sho was engaged to the
captain on her father's staff and he was not of
sufficient rank to come. She did not look
over 12 years old, with her frock only reach
ing to tho top of her tiny high-heeled, white
satin boots, but any age is considered mar
riageable iu Mexico. I was particularly im
pressed with the charming manners of the
Mexican officers and grandees of Paso del
Norte that night When one of them, a
major, was introduced to me ho bowed very
low and said: "A los pies de V., senorita,"
which is tho usual charming salutation,
meaning "At your feet, senorita;" and in
duty bound I answered, "Be&o a la inauo,
caballero," which is tho regulation retort,
meaning "I kiss your hand, sir." But I didn't
do it; that was only an idle threat Ho
wished to dance with m. but didn't under
stand our plan of having hop cards, for at
their balls the first one who gets to a girl
dances with her.
They have no introductions of any kind.
Every man is supposed to be a gentleman and
every woman a lady, and you mortally offend
a man if you refuse to dance with him. Bo
when it was explained to him that my card
was full he meekly asked for tho first extra.
and with a very flowery compliment, which
he did not in the least mean, but which hurt
neither one of us and was very pretty, he ex
cused himself. As the programme was very
long we had no extras, and he came up almost
in tears to express his unavailing regret. Ono
would have thought a nation's fate depended
on that man's making me dizzy in one of
their waltzes, for they never reverse. He
was very handsome and used his eyes in a
most fetching manner, but I thought in all
probability he had a wife and ten children
over in his adobe house, and the scene
changed. I enjoyed it hugely, but I should
think such extravagance vof language might
become wearing. El Paso Cor. Chicaim
