As they pressed In she rushed ioto the par

OPIUM BY THE POUND
Kcmnrkublo Consumption or the
Drui ; hv n Mnn nnd Wffo
Ono of the most i omnrkiiblo cases ever
brought to the notice ot the physicians
of Chicuga was that of Mr and Mrs
Flunk Austin o ( No 151 West Lake
street , who were before Judge Piondoi-
CT.st today In tlio iiisa.no court , says a
dispatch to the Cincinnati Enquirer
The man and woman are both insane ,
in fact tlinir minds woio completely
gene , the result of oatlng opium in
larco qunntittds The couple presented
a pftoous Bight , being reduced to the
lowest depths of misery and wretched
ness and it seemed as it their skin
would be punctuiqd bj the sharp bones
that appeared ou the point of protrud
ing Neither was capable of convers
ing intelligently and the judge had no
ditllcultyin | ascertaining that they woto
fit subjects foi the insane asylum Dr
M. W. Warren , who had boon in attend
auco upon the counlo , told the judge
what ho know of the case
These two persons were found in bed
at their flat , " said ho , and I thought it
the best thing to have thorn cated for
iLis certainly a most remtu liable cuso
J his mnn and women have been in the
habit of eating fully a pound of opium
cuch ovoiy day , aUll the wonuor is they
have survived as long as they have I
never know of anyone eating so much of
the drug for any length of tlmo and sur
viving The woman , who is naturally
rellnod and is vvoll educated , has boon a
confirmed opium eater for yoais , while
the husbuud li is been using the drug , I
understand , for only a few months
Whllo the mludsof both Mr and Mrs
Austin are destroyed , it is possible , a
euro , or a pattial one , muy bo effected
in the cuso of the husband The
woman's mind is totally gene , t think
lho wife's 6iid condition had a good deal
to do with dilving the husband to the
use of the dtug "
Ono rolilld was horn to the parents
some time ago , a daughter , aud alio will
bo taken care of by relatives of tlio
couple It is the intention of various
physicians here to maintain a watch
ovet the trmu und woman at the asylum
iu Older to keep track of the progioss
mudo lu effecting a euro iu the hus
bands cuso There seems to bo no doubt
that Mr and Mrs Austin have caton
the drug by the wholesulo , and , the case
being a phenomenal one , phoslcians are
more than ordiuauly intorostcd ,

lho people of Idaho would not accept

do so would bo to open the wny for the ro
tiowal of the political corruption which pre

from membership in the church by the
priests Hundreds of them hnvo been

county with a population of J 500 Mormons ,
Bingham county , J 000 , Onedla county 4,000 ,
and Cosbla , 1 GOO ihero is in these counties
a large aud growiugi Gentile population
amounting in Bingham and Cossia counties
to a majority of the inhabitants
Iho last three legislatures , and the roccnt
constitutional convention of Idaho have been
practically-unanimous without distinction of
political party , in demanding the exclusion ot
Mormons from political affairs The mem
bers of these bodies have como from every
county , have represented every interest , and
were composed alike of democrats and re
publicans Every man in the territory who
is not a Mormon , bo ho a republican or a
democrat is first of all anxious and deter
mined that the Mormon question shall now ,
once for all bo ollm'uatod from the future
politics of the commonwealth All are alike
confident that the result will bo accomp
llsned , if congress will give the territory
statehood under tbo provisions of the con
stitutlon vvh'ch they have unanimously
adopted
Section three of that Instrument provides
that no person shall bo pornuttcd to vote ,
servo as juror , or hold any civil nfllce , who
' is a bigamist , a polygamist , or is living in
what is known as patriarchalplural or celestial
tial marriage or in violation of any law of

such crime , or who In any manner teaches ,

into bigamy , polygamy or such patriarchl or

teaches or advises tbnt the laws of this state

anv ot the provisions this article contains "
The Gentile population is increasing rap
idly in Idaho , and will continue to Increase
The Mormon population Is not Increasing ,
and will not grow to any recognizable ox
toot The Mormons have come principally
from Utah With statehood , and the consequent
quent power to handle the subject without
interference , the people wilt see that polyga
mous mormonlsin does not last long No ono
who understands the Interests of the people
of Idaho can doubt that they would pass suit
able laws for the protection of their political ,
moral and social treodom Statehood means
the complete breaking down of Mormon
power in Idaho Jn joint of development ,
wealth and settlement , Idaho is in every way
fitted to become a state lho admission
would bo tbo greatest measure yet taken for
solving the problem vnlch peculiarly men
aces American interests lhe utmost
strength which the Mormons can possibly
exert will not effect anything , for , however
it may have been in the past , both parties
are now in harmony in respect to all moas
urcs looking to the correction of the social ,
moral and political evils which Mormonlsm
so powerfully breeds
There la no othePof our northwestern
provinces , which bears greater premise ot
success than does Idaho It has a line pop
ulatlon Every aspect of Its condition , po
litical and material is * hopeful Its settle
ment is pormanentyand must rapidly in
crease The UnlontPacifio Orocon bhort
Line runs througbit southern portion ,
the Northern Passe ? through it toward its
northern boundary , and the Montana Con
tra ) , which is ubout to push through be
tween tno two on to ( Spokane Fall ] and the
Pacific by tbo mostidirect possible route
from Helena These roads all open up lines
of snttlomont population and industrywhich
must powerfully effqpi a free and intelligent
state Tbo people of Idaho , already , must
become moro and more competent to dis
cbargo tbo duties of citizenship and state
hood \.f
Ono thing is cerfAlQI Whether Idaho is
rolmltted now or latenion , she must come into
the union on terms which shall definitely and
forever settle thu Mormon question An ap
peal has been taken to the supreme court of
the Uultod States from the decision of tbo
supreme court of Idaho territory , whorela
tbo legality of the test oath was held to bo
valid Idaho can afford to await tbo utter
nnco of the hlghost judicial tribunal of the
United fotatos upon this ull-importaiit ques
tiou That decision will forever settle the
Mormon question in , Idaho It Is in every
way desirable that it be settled now on the
threshold of her admission as a sovereign
state This decision will not be long delayed
layed Meanwhile if it Is thought bast that
Idaho should for a little tlmo delay assuming
the role of sovereignty , she will go ou fitting
herself more and moro perfectly in popula
tlon and iu material independence to place
her star beside these of her four now sisters

of his follow countrvmon In fact , an
applicant for admission to the sorvicc is
generally subjected to n kind of civil
sorvicc examination of his courage in
withstanding the hoirors of supernat
ural phenomena If ho statids the test
without quailing and proves that ho has
not incurred the enmity 01 any bad
spirit which might interfere with him
in the discharge of his duties , ho has
taken a long stop toward procuring his
appointment This singular condition
for admission to the service Is univer
sally considered to bo quito proper , for
the average Chinaman is so afraid of
spuits anil the dark that the slightest
noise by the wayside at night would
cause him to drop whatever ho was carr -

An ordin iry letter may bo sent 150
miles or moro foi about 8 cents Thirty
percent of the posta o is collected in

covers the expense of transpoitation ,
and is a guarantee against fraud on the

The postmen often carty very valua-

used or troops of lighting civilians who
have especially trained themselves to
light mail robbers Three , four or five
of these civlliaus are always ready to
fight at least a dozen highwaymen
The mnnner in which they piopare
themselves for such uneven combats is
an elaboration of a pugilists training
in punching the bag 1 rom the roof of
the empty shed in which the pnetico is
taken hang on topes ton heavy sand
bags Tha mnn who is learning to bo a
guard stands in the midst of these bags
while his instiuctor , on the outside ,
sots them to swinging The man nmoug

as ho learns to keep all the bags in mo

is pronounced ready to go on the road to
knock out mail robbers
