facts about the mormons. Report of tse Utah Commission, Which Two Members Refused to Sign. from the Noe York Sun. Washington, Oct. G. L. Godfrey, A. r Williams and Arthur L. Thomas, consti tuting a majority of the Utah Commission, have filed the annual report of the commis sion. A memorandum at the close of the document says that Commissioners Carlton end McClernand dissented from many of the , jews expressed therein, and did not sign the report. The population of the Territory is esti mated at 200,000, a gain of nearly tiO.OOO since 1880. The valuation of the property pssessed is $35,605,803. The prosperity of the past seven years has been equal to that rf any former period in the history of the {Territory. On April 1 the total Mormon copulation in the Territories of Utah, Idaho. Arizona, Wyoming and Now Mexico, and {he States of Nevada and Colorado, was nfi3,383, officially classed as follows: Three First Presidents, 11 apostles, 05 patriarchs, ti. 444 seventies, 3,733 high priests, 13,411 elders, 2,423 priests, 3,497 teachers, 0,854 deacons. 81,283 members and 46,639 chil dren under eight years of age. The total church population of Utah was 132,297. (since the death of John Taylor, which event dissolved the first presidency for the third time in the history of the church, the government of the church rests upon the quorum of the Twelve Apostles, of which Wilford Woodruff is President. The Mor mon church teaches the members not to enter the Territorial courts to settle their difficulties, but has provided a system of courts within the church. The payment of tithing and other donations for the support of the church is vigorously urged as a re ligious duty The tithing for ISBO was $540,000. The strength of the non-Mormon element is estimated at 55,000, and they now own about one-third of the assessed property of the Territory. The different religious de nominations have in Utah 62 churches. The Methodist denomination has 26, the Presby terians 18, Catholics 6, and so decreasing through five other societies. These several churches have established and control 87 schools, with an aggregate of 0,668 pupils and 230 teachers. Since thh passage of the Edmunds law in 1882, 541 persons nave been indicted for un lawful cohabitation, and ‘289 of these were convicted. The number convicted of polygamy was 14. Many of the persons indicted have fled to escape arrest. The national laws relating to bigamy and polygamy have been in effective operation for about three years. The Mormon leaders and their obedient followers have made no concession to its supremacy, and the issue is squarely maintained between assumed revelations and the laws of the land. The first annual election under the act of Congress prescribing a registration oath for voters was held on Aug. 1 of this year, and resulted as follows: The Mormons elected 10 Councillors and ‘2l members; the Liberals or non-Mormons elected 2 Councillors and 3 members. The total vote cast was 16,901. On the subject of the movement for State hood, the report says that in June last a convention was held, which adopted a con stitution with great unanimity. It declares bigamy 7 and polygamy to be misdemeanors, and fixes the punishment therefor. It also provides that no further legislation shall he required to define these offenses, and pro claims the separation of church and State. The instrument is silent as to the offense of unlawful cohabitation. The non-Mormons declined to recog nize or join in the proceedings of the con vention. In the election which followed upon the adoption of this constitution the non Mormons refused to vote, and the monogamous Mormons cast 13,195 votes in its favor, only 500 votes being cast against it. The commission regards this State movement as an effort to free the Mormon church from the toils which the firm atti tude of the government and the energetic course of the Federal officers have thrown around it, and opposes it. The commission renews its recommenda tions of last year, except such as were en acted into laws at the last session of Con gress. The commission also recommends that authority be conferred upon the Gov ernor of the Territory to appointselectmen, county clerks, assessors, recorders, and su perintendents of district schools. A STORY OP THE WAR. The Fate of a Young Soldier Made Known After Twenty-four Years. From Die St. Loui* Globe-Democrat. Raleigh, N. C., Sept. 30.—One of the romances of the war has just developed here, in which the only son of one of North Caro lina's Governors figures. Gov. Todd R, Caldwell during the war resided in hand some style at the quiet little town of Mor gantown. Of an old and honored family, be was proud and had but one object of in tense affection —his son, John—a handsome lad not 20 years of age. In the winter of 18fy this only son begged to be allowed to go to the army. Entreaties were of no avail, and his father and his mother at last con sented, with teal's, that he might join the Army of Northern Virginia. He enlisted in the Thirty-third regiment of North Caro lina infantry, in Lane’s brigade, Pender’s division, A. P. Hill’s corps. When the campaign opened in 1863 no soldier was more daring than young Cald well, and he was soon promoted from the ranks. In May he was made a second lieu tenant, for his gallant and meritorious con duct. His regiment went into the Pennsyl vania campaign. At Gettysburg he was present, and in the hottest of the fight. On 'he afternoon of July 3, 1863, his regiment swept up a slope within fifty yards of the federal lines, went closer yet, and bayonets were crossed. Suddenly the line moved "Ark a little. Young Caldwell was never reen alive after that moment. He was at the front when the backward movement began. His father used all the influence of woney and position to find the lost soldier, '"it unavailing]}'. The authorities refused to allow the graves to he opened. It could not. lie ascertained whether he was dead or 6| i\e, and the matter became one of tiie mr >st terrible uncertainties. Under the Mrain the minds of the father and mother "dip nearly overcome. The father, grimly nursing his great sorrow, forbade any one *" mention the son’s name, and the terrible story was never alluded to, even bv the mother. In lsTl Gen. Caldwell became Governor the State. Two yeans later, in 1873, an soldier named Lucas, from Hyde county, was elected to the Legislature, "ml came to Raleigh. Home one told him " MO right the sad story of the death, or supposed death, and mystery of John Cald- Vl " The next day Lucas called on the bovernor and told him the truth at last . Lucas was in another regiment, and had observed young Caldwell’s brave bearing, “s’he} were near together. In the terrible moment of tho repulse he had seen young : a‘dwell shot down while separated from m." men and fighting hand to hand a New > ork soldier. After hearing this story and t ic further details of the burial of Oald *’°l‘ by Lucas, the Governor locked himself ln his room and was all day in tears. He never told his wife of the revelation by Lucas, and told it only to his private seciv- A few days ago Maj. Charles W. Cowtan, or New York city, wrote your correspon dent saying that he had in his possession a eommission of an officer in a Nort h Caro lina regiment, which he had picked up on he battlefield of Gettysburg. His regi ment, the Tenth New York, hold the line at Point, just after a terrible charge by jhe North Carolinians, in which the fair haired and boyish officer was brave in the extreme. Mat. Cowtan hail examined some of the .lead Confederates, who so thickly strewed the grounds at the works, And near one found a torn ami bloody com mission, on which was legible dniy “John Ca” of the name. Maj. owtan expressed a desire to return tins commission if any relatives of the 'lead soldier could he found. Tho cormnis- Aion was found to be that of the long-lost “01m Caldwell. Yesterday the commission was sent Mi's. Caldwell, and this blood stained and torn piece of parchment is, she writes, all there is on earth to remind her of the dead son. For years she cherished the hope that her son was alive and in some prison. In fact, all the prisons were search ed for him through the influence of Gov. (now Senator) V anee. It has required twenty-four years to ascertain the true story. At the same time the commission was sent her she was first made acquainted with the told Gov. Caldwell iu 1873. BAD BUTUNSELFISH. Prisoners Giving Up Half Their Dinners to Save a Starving Family. From the -Veto York Herald. Vincenzo Juliano, an Italian who put two pistol balls into the brain of Giuseppe Dadona, a fellow countryman, during a drunken quarrel in Newark last June, is now in Newark jail awaiting trial for mur der. His young wife, a typical peasant of Southern Italy, with brilliant black eyes and swarthy complexion, is allowed to visit him three times a week. When she first began to go to the jail Warden HeVtry R. Baker, who lias a prett y tender heart for a prison official, was touched by the woman’s grief, and felt pity for the child she carried m her arms anil the two little ones who trotted by 7 her side. One day the prison officer noticed that Juliano’s wife had concealed under her scant shawl a little bundle. The little woman uttered a cry when the officer examined it and disclosed half a loaf of bread and some bits of meat. It was half the murderer’s dinner. Win Warden Baker was informed he sent tV woman and her little ones to his residence and, after seeing that they ate a hearty meal, he gave them some things from his own table to take to their home. How the prisoners in the jail learned it all nobody knows, but the next visiting day, when Juliano’s wife and little ones came, they found bread and meat enough in his cell to keep them from hunger for a week. They were thieves and thugs, cutthroats and confidence men, but they stinted them selves to give half their.dinner to Juliano for his wife and hungry babies. That is the way the murderer’s wife and little children have been kept from starvation. One day, about two weeks ago, Mrs. Ju liano knocked as usual at the prison en trance. She had been weeping and the bright black ey 7 es were blurred and rimmed with heavy circles. The woman almost fainted with emotion when she met her husband—there was nothing in her arms, so she threw them about his neck. Her baby was dead. There are only two little mouths to feed now, and half of Juliano's prison ration and the gifts from Warden Baker’s table keep the gaunt wolf from the door. Juliano, who is a good looking young fellow of 37, said yesterday in his broken English: “Me no lika eta when me wife an me babie bav notink.” Warden Baker says he is one of the most obedient prisoners under his charge. Mrs. Cleveland's Luncheon of Bread, Butter and Raw Tomatoes. From the Baltimore American. Philadelphia, Oct. I.—Mrs. Cleveland was pretty well worn out when she started for Washington at nearly midnight on the occasion of her recent visit to this city. She had just come from the big dinner given to the President by the Historical Society of Pennsylvania and other learned bodies. While her husband and the other guests on the floor were discussing a superb menu she and a coterie of other ladies looked on from the Prince of Wales’ box, and had nothing more thrilling than the substance of many laudatory speeches. She had her mind, however, on a good, solid luncheon on the way home, as an order had been left at a fashionable hotel near by for something uncommonly good. As she was seated in her compartment of the drawing-room car that President Roberts of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company had placed at her disposal, and the train was about to start, the French head waiter from the hotel came in with his face as sad look ing as a figure on a tombstone. “Madam!" he exclaimed; “madam, some thing terrible has happened! Ah, very terrible!” “What?’ asked the President's wife, in alarm, her face beginning to pale. “You remember the luncheon!” “Well?’ “We came with it here too soon. There was no fire here anywhere, and we were for bidden to make one, for fear of filling the depot with smoke, and so rendering it objec tionable to your nostrils, Madam.” “Yes.” “And so we sent it back to the hotel to keep it warm. My waiters, who have just come from the hotel with wraps for some of the ladies, were not informed, and so they have left the luncheon behind.” “Oh, it is nothing,” answered Mrs. Cleve land, with the spirit of ’a martyr. “We shall thrive; but dear me, lam hungry. I forgive you now; but is ihere really nothing to eat on the car?’ “Nothing, madam.” “Nothing t ” “Except, madam, some bread.” “Bread! Then we’re all right." “And some butter, madam.” “Good!” “And some tomatoes. We intended them for salad.” “Tomatoes? We revel in luxury.” Off the train started, and f°r half an hour afterward, apparently, the first lady of the land gayly munched bread and butter and raw tomatoes. She expressed only one regret—that there was no salt for the to matoes. How Bismarck Became the Capital of Dakota Territory. Front the Chicago Tribune. A story is told of a game of poker that moved the capital of Dakota. It was at that memorable winter session at Yankton where several towns were flitted against one another as to which should secure the coveted honor, it happened that two tow ns were tied on the vote, and a single addi tional ballot would have secured the prize for either. It was in this condition of affairs that a job was put up to secure the single lacking vote by inveigling a poker-loving member into a game of draw. There were four iu the party—three from one of the rival towns and the proposed victim from the other. The game was in an upper room of a hotel, and play was high and furious, as the participants had full nurses. The great game was after awhile opened with SIOO in the pot, It had liecti agreed to give the victim a line hand, and to give one of the other three conspira tors a hand that would beat it. He got the hand, looked at it and said, as lie raised the ante: “It will takes3oo to draw cards." The other two conspirators passed out, and the victim raised S2OO. They seesawed until $2,000 was up, when they drew. The conspirator took one card to four kings. The victim hesitated, and finally took three. Then the betting began, and did not stop till $2,000 more was on the table. Then the conspirator made his side oven and said; “I am out of money, but I’ll raise you 100 acres of land in Beadle county. No, I won’t, either, but I’ll tell you what I will do—l’ll bet you my vote on the capital.” “Done,” said the victim, and the hands were spread out. The conspirator hail four kings and retujhtvl for the pot. “Hold on,” said the victim, ns lie laid down four aces. “Your vote will bring the capital to Bismarck,” and it did. Ilis hand had been a queen full on aces, and he discarded the queens, but where he got the aces nobody could tell. The Richest Man in the World would be floor without health. The dj ing millionaire consumptive would exchange all he is worth for anew lease of life. He could have had it for a song had housed Dr. Pierce's “Golden Medical Discovery” before the disease had reached its last stages. This wonderful preparation is a positive cure for consumption if taken in time. For all diseases of the throat and lungs it is uu ntiunit'd. Ail druggists.
