An Americus mau started home in his buggy the other night. Be ing very tired, he went to sleep and allowed the horse to manage things his own way, as was the custom when his owner was tired. Instead of pursuing the usual routethe horse tooka nigh cat up tha railroad. The traveling was good until an unfinishad trestle was reacied. The animal cariied the buggy and its contents to the end of the trestle and was forced to halt. There he stood peering into the darkness on a precipice forty feet high when the man was awoke and comprehended the sit uation. As it was too dark to extricate the horse and buggy from the perilous position the tired man was compelled to wait five hours before daylight * Kicking Men.

A Sensational Scheme oé Foot to Hoodwink Morrmonism's Dupes. LivcoLN, NEB:,, Jan. 30.—Two miles south of this city stands a palatial residence owned by an English gentleman long identified with the Mormon church. The residence has been unteaanted fou the last two years, save by an old servaut named White, who, at one time, was connected with the Jezrels of London, & sect similar to the Morrions. While claims that he was defrauded by them out of his property, and latterly became converted to the Mormon faith. He was considerad a trust worthy man and was therefore, partially through nzcessity, taken® into the confidence of the leaders of the Mormon church of Zion, which, accordiug to his statements, is about to perpetrate a fraud to which he is unwilling to become a party. A MYSTERIOUS STRANGER. He says: - “Tl'wo months ago there arrived at the mansion an old gentleman bearing letters from my master in Liondon, the purport of which was to obey his every wish and to keep his pres ence secret to all except those to whom he saw fit to reveal himself Within « week persons began to arrive at the house in twos and threes. They were from Salt Lake City and held long whisper ed consultations with my mysteri ous guest. At first I did not care who or what he was. A RESURRECTION SCWEME. “Little by little 1 gathered from stray remarks that he was a person of note, and soon after the trath barst upon me—that he ia none oth:r than Brigham Young, the great prophet of our chareh, who is to apparently be resurreat ed from the dead and preach to the people of Zion as one having returned from the grave, to tell what lies beyond. That his death and burial were a deception will soon na seen by the whole world, while thousands of his ignorant balievers bow at his fost and he dietites to them themr ways of life. HOW HE SOLVED THE SECRET. “My guest’s visitors are men of high standing, as their appear ance indicates, and it was in con versation witli one of them, who supposed from the way I talked that I knew all, that my suspi cions were verified. My inform ant said Brigham Young had risan from his grave in Salt Lake City aud was instructing his disciples here in order to prepare the peo ple for tho great event of his com ing. My only reason for telling these facts i 3 that I am an ald man, with but little to gain in this world, and I do not want to see the people deluded as I have been —the Jezrels absorbed my compe tence and now the Mormons have broken my faith.” A VISIT TO THE HOUSE. The old man told the story with a sincerity that warrants further investigation, and a merchant who formerly did business in Salt Liake City droye out to the man sion yesterday and wrapped at the door. Receiving no response, he started around the house to apply at the rear, when through the bay window he saw the form and features of en old man, who was sitting inside. As he was un aware of bis presence, tha mer chant approached to within a few feet of the window. BRIGHAM YOUNG'S COUNTRRPART. Scanning the old man's face losely and stepping back immnie madiately Lie pronounced the man to be Brigham Young, whose marked features he had often studied in Salt Lake City, and which onco seen, he says, can pever be forgotten. For a few moments the man sat silently and then raised his hand to his brow, revealing a scar about the wrist, that still further establishes his identity. It is a wali known fact that the elders of the Mormon chureh throughout Utah and Ari zona have of late been preaching the returv of the prophet, YOUNG SEEN IN LONDON, This, together with the fact that it was claimed by a St. Lonis man some mouths ago that Brigham Young was seen and recognizad iy Londow, that a number og prowmi. pont Moro 0 frane T ek City have lately been upon the streets of Lincoln, that important legislation is aboat to be enacted to the detriment of the Mormon church and the veil of mystery with which the prophets death has always le»n shrouded, makes 1t almost certain that the Mormon banners throughout Utah will soon be unfurled annonncing that “he is risen.” TOOTSY-WOOTSY SPIES. A Good Dinner Sent to Jail by Mi:s Yan Zandt. Cuicago, January 26.—“ What's this?” said Tornkey Frank Blair, when he swung open the main door «f the eoanty jail abont 8:30 o’clock this morning in response to a krock for admittance, and be held a very small colored woman holding a very large basket in her arms. “Well, sah, T'll tell you,” ehe replied confidentially. “It's a breakfas’ deat Miss Niony Van Zandt sent ovali fo' Mista Spies and dat she done cook wid her own l:» ‘ds, and she said dat she doan wan’ none of you all sassy jail peaple to fool wid de roas’ chicken or omelette ssuflay, bat to sen’ 1t right up to Mista Spies quick, so’s it woan git cole.

Good Lawd, but how she do love dat man!” The basket and its contents weare dualy handed inside and Miss Van Zundt's Ethiopian hand maid took her departure. “Examine the contents of the bisket carefully,” ordered Chief Jailer Foutz, “and if there is no dynamite or one of the young wo m:'s lap-logs concealed seme where send the stuff up to Spies’ cell.” A minute search revealed a card bearing the written words, “From baby to her tootsy-wootsy,” hid den away between two slices cf bread. Nothing of a contraband nature was found, however, and the basket and contents was seut to Spies by one of the guards. From the above circumstance it ean be seen that Miss Van Zandt's love for the anarchist is not dead, but sleeping, notwith standing Sheriff Matson’s edict and the notoriety which she has recently received.

The postmaster hero for two months past missed money a shorl intervals from his cash drawer and could find po clue ta the thief.

A few hours later, hear. ing cries and grosns in his effico, Lhe went in to look at hs game. ‘What was his surprise to sea young Barr, son of the editor of the Subsoiler, writhing in puu\ mingled with grief at{ his shame ful predicament. A sliding panel had been open ed in the counter and a hand in serted. The trap had sprung and the member caught at the wrist, The postmaster tried in vain to release the prisoner, but the trap resisted his efforts to open its jaws and he was forced to go for aid. Rotarning, he found that Barr, unable to face the conscquences of his criminality, had eut his throut and was dead, hanging by his hand from the inexorabie jaws of the instrument which had de teeted and captured him.

A terrible crima has just been committed in the Morbihan, in f'rance. A miller woman named Jallu had four children, two sons and two daughters. The elder daughter, Esther Jallu, was pret ty, and eonsecious of the fact. She had also some eduneation, and was a'graat favorite in the village, where the other inmates wera disliked and feared. One day heg family began to aflirm that she was possessed of the demon of pride. There was an evil spirit in Estber's body, and the brothers Julla declared toeverybody that they would in some way drive ib ouf. Aftsr raminating upon the mat tar for some time they barred the ‘doors of the mill,and seizing their gister, threw her on the floor. QOue of them held her down while the other borel holes in her with an augee. The demon was to es cape out of her by thess openings. While the sereams of the tortared girl were half drowned by the noise of millstones turning rapid ly, two womasn —the mother and sistor —were actually kneeling be side her praying for the success of the cperation. Four holes were bored, one in ths forehead, one in in tho body, and one in each leg. Whether these ignorent peas. ants really imagined that they could thes drive the demon of pride out of their sister, or wheth er they permeditated tha murdes they committed, mattered very lit tlo to Ilsther, who, of course, died under the operation. When the inhabitauts of the sur-ounding conntry eame to inquire after Kez ther, when she had not baen seen for several days, the two brothers and the sister appeared at the door armsl with hatchets and threatenad to strike anyona who should dare to approach them. The gendarmes were at onea in formed of the ocenrrence, and the inmates of tho mill having been. geizad, they were sent to the mad. house.
