Tha Stor'y of a Notorious Mormon
Massacre.
How More than One Hundred Emigrants
were Treacherously Butchered.
Early in September, 1857, tho company
of emigrants that had been ordered
out of Salt Lake valley, and compelled
to take the southern route to the coast,
entered the meadows and encamped with
the intention of resting and recruiting
before crossing the desert. Nothing occurred
to alarm them the first day, and
f-.ll A__._
nwu uigui, iuii nicy wok no precautions
except such as had been customary with
them during the journey. The valley
seemed a haven of safety, and they laid
down to rest with thankful hearts, but
while tliey slept a plot for their destruction
was maturing. The Nauvoo legion,
obedient to "orders from headquarters,"
had surrounded the unsuspecting emigrants
on every side. A portion of the
legion, painted and disguised as Indians,
had been sent on in company with savages
less cruel than themselves to attack
the train. Tho remaining companies of
Mormon militia had other orders. At
daybreak the guard at the emigrants'
' * . camp perceived dark forms moving upon
the surrounding hillsides. He aroused
his comrades, and as the dusky figures :
showed more plainly in the growing light j
they decided that they were Indians and ]
that an attack was intended. It was ]
necessary to think and act quickly, and a 1
uarricacte was formed at oncc with the ^
wagons of the company, but before their (
hurried preparations for defense were ,
completed the sharp crack of rifles and c
the whizzing of bullets denoted that the ^
battle had begun. It was already only c
too plain that their assailants greatly out- f
numbered them, and from savages, as j,
they supposed them to be, no quarter j,
was expected, but love stronger than v
death nerved their arms and strengthened a
their hearts for the contest. ti
All day long the unequal battle raged. t]
At night the fire of the assailants slack- a
encd, but the light from piles of burning f(
sage brush showed that they still sur- ^
rounded the emigrants' camp on every Q
side. Before sunrise a murderous rain gj
of bullet^ recommenced, and again continucd
until nightfall. The third day ^
was a repetition of the first, but on the a:
fourth day acccss to the springs was cut Ay
off, and the horrors of death from thirst

with desperate courage, and when the st
sun went down they still held their posi- ^
tion and kept the foe at bay. The
morning of the fifth day found thcin
worn,- exhausted, tortured by burning ^
thirst, but with hearts as undaunted gj
as ever: Late in the afternoon the steady m
firing of the besiegers ceased, and when j1(
they looked out to ascertain the cause, cc
they saw a party of white men approach- rj]
ing, their leader bearing a flag of truce.
Let it be remembered the emigrants had ?p
never doubted that their assailants were ^
Indians, and the sight of white men, com- m
mg as tncy believed to their rescue, was
as welcome as a vision of angels. In CQ
answer to the flag of truce a little girl
was dressed in white, and placed on one
of the wagons. In view of what followed,
this act was full of unutterable hi;
pathos. Truly, they had decked a lamb sir
for sacrifice. The white men, as they to
drew near, proved to be a body of Mor- hit
mon militia, headed by their officers, in
who were also the bishops of the sur- tri
rounding settlements. They represented an
that they had done their best to induce he
the "Indians" to leave, but they would of
\ . not do so unless the emigrants would in<
agree to give up their property, stack
their arms and mnrph nnf r*f ? ' ?:

under the escort of the militia.. The em- 1
igrants, seeing no other prospect of sav- lik
ing the lives of their families, agreed to hil
these hard conditions. After making cli
the required surrender, they were divided rig
into three companies. The women and '
children went first, under the escort of a fat
detachment of the legion. The men fol- wa
lowed at some distance, guarded by an- of
other body of militia, and a wagon con- yoi
taining the wounded brought \ip the rear. '
And now comes the blackest page in an<
this chapter of treachery and murder, a jus
page that the most callous historian a p
might shrink from recording. At a we
given signal from the officers in com- sue
mand,the unarmed men were shot down, fol,
and when the last one lay dead or dying me
on the bloody soil, the slaughter of the out
women and children and the butchery
of the wounded began. When the sun wh
Bet that night on the reddened and
irampieu jueauows, one hundred and aifl
nineteen mangled corpses strewed the ^
ground. Of all the company that en- "ie
tered the valley, none remained alive except
some of the smaller children. Why son
they were saved when so many other uat
children were shot down without mercy, w0
none but the perpetrators of the deed ^1C
can explain. . Thi
The two oldest of the children thus
laved were for some weeks in the caro

Fcmin'ne Bull-Fiphters.
A Paris letter luis the following: Oq
Monday the famous amphitheatre at
Nimcs, a monumental rclic of old Iloman
times, was full to repletion with a
crowd of excited beings who had como
to"witness the skill and prowess of the
Matador Frutos and his compeers. What
was more, three toreras were to appear,
this being the first time that women liavt
entered the arenas at Nimes. At 3 o'clock
in the afternoon thn iiot?rm?r.o/?a !.??<>..
with a grand procession of Spanish bullfighters,
male an J female, who rode
proudly into the inclosed space to the
sound of military music. Three toreraa
in fancy costumes, all sparkling with filigree
aud bangles, headed the procession.
Then came the quadrille, composed of
five toreadors, headed by the great Frutos
himself, in gorgeous hn&limcnts. At
the sound of a bugle a splendid black
bull of crossed Spanish breed bounded
snorting into the ring. The women immediately
?et to work with their banderillas
which they flung at the face and
body of the careering toro. The tips of
the animals horns were covered with
round knobs of wood or leather while the
women were plying their darts so as to
prevent accidents, but the protections
were uftcrwards removed in some instances
while the men were performing.
A second bull, a red one, which was next
let loose, made straight at one of the to-v
reras, a young woman professionally designated
Senorita Beuita del A mo nnrl
knocked her over in a second, but not,
iiowevcr, before she had succeeded in
planting two lance-headed pennons between
his eyes. The woman was disengaged
with surprising deftness by her
nale companions, and returned to the
:harge with a courageous persistence
vortliy of Madame de Valsayre herself.
>he was loudly applauded by the public
or licr performance. A fresh bull waa
troduccd, which brought out the finer
lay of Frutos, whose first proceeding
pas to clear the bull with a pole as easily
s if he were clcariug a fence. He
lien simulated death by lying still on
he ground, escaping with marvellous
droitness as the bull came near him with
irocious intent. The torera Benito del
.mo then sat on a chair in the middle
f the arena and calmly awaited the *onlauglit
of a fresh animal. In the twinkng
of an eye she was caught on the
ull's horns and was tossed high into the
ir, falling stunned to the ground. This
as the most deplorable part of the perirmauce,
and no more serious accidents
;curred. The quadrille of men inantly
attracted the bull's attention from I
is prostrate prey, and the woman was
uickly sprinkled with water or vinegar,
id rose apparently uninjured from the
round. Iler light clothes were torn to
ireds. Frutos repeated the chair moveent,
but, more adroit than the woman,
i nimbly sprang aside before the bull
>uld bear down on him, and just es- J
ped a terrible horn-thrust. Six bulls |
all were let loose during the afternoon. '
lie woman's performances were great i
ilures, and it is to be hoped that from j
otives of humanity these shows may be j
least confined to men, if they are to be
ntinued at Niraes.
Praise the Boy.
It often costs one quite a struggle to do
3 simple duty; and when one does his J
nple duty in spite of his temptations i
do differently, he deserves credit for
j doing. One has no need to live long 0
this world before finding out this
ith. A bricrht little bov nhnnf ?

d a half years old recently showed that t
apprehended it. lie was on the eve
doing something that was very tempt- {
? to him.
"No, my son; you musn't do that," 0
d his father." t \\
The little fellow looked as if he would ,J
P
e to do it in spite of his father's pro- i
>ition; but he triumphed over his in- *
nation, and answered resolutely: "All [i
lit, papa; I won't do it."
There was no issue there, and the jj
her turned to something else. The boy
itea a minute, and then said, in a tone
surprised inquiry: "Papa, why don't
i tell me, "that's a good boy?" A
The father accepted the suggestion, t<
1 commended his son accordingly. A
t recognition of a child's well doing is ?
parent's duty, cveu though the child's |
11-doing ought not to hinge on F
:h a recognition. And as with little c
ks, s^with larger ones. Just com- y
ndation is every one's duty. Even

Taking Disease From Books.
Visitors to Jthe Congressional Librar
Bad their attention attracted the othei
day by tho demeanor of an old man wlu
entered with the assistance of a crutch,
writes a Washington correspondent oi
the New York Mad and Express, lie had
a bandage over one eye and a roll of red
flannel enveloped one of his hands, lie
stored his crutch away by the side ol
his chair, adjusted the bandage over his
eye, and rubbed his side while waiting.
Presently the attendant brought him an
armful of books that seemed to be medial
mi ; 1
r>ujiv-5. jluu crippie wus soon pouring
over these with the deepest interest.
"That's one of them," suid tho reporter's
companion.
"I see," replied the reporter. "So dcroted
to books that he climbs up the
Capitol steps and comes here to read,
notwithstanding his terribly afflicted
frame."
"Well, it's not exactly that." replied
the habitue. "It's his affliction that
brings him here, and it's his affliction
that he comes. You see he is, as I said,
one of them. There are enough more.
They come to read up their own cases.
Those books before him speak of blindness,
lameness and rheumatism. He is
Dne of the best informed men on those
[ jubjects in the city. The more he knows
about the ailments tho worse bccomes
his affliction, and lie will probably add
some new ones before he gets through
with that pile of books. "When he started
tn here he had something the matter
with one of his e3Tcs, aud he came to re:ul
np on blindness. By careful study he
has spread ailments all over himself,
until there is no point in his body that
fcin't hi torture. He had been reading up
his own cjisc, and has improved upon it.
That's about the way with all of them.
Some of them are actually suffering from
some trouble for which they are seeking
x remedy. Others are unconsciously
looking for troubles to have. Men who
have some chronic ailment, for which
doctors nave Dc-cn unable to give them
any relief, go to the library and read all
the works they can find that may, in any
wa* apply to their case. Some of them
become experts in particular branches of
medicine. They devote their whole
lives to it, and never seem to think <>r
speak of anything else. Some, like this
man, discover that they are in possession
of a great variety of ailmerts, and their
researches into medicine becomes very
extensive, though somewhat desultory.
Some get cured of one complaint when
they fall into possession of another, but
others retain all the old ones and continue
to nurse and train them very carefully
while adding new ones constantly. But'
generally they are devoted to one particu-:
far thing, and they pursue that assiduously.
They are one of the peculiar
classes of readers."

"This separation of limo, uric acid andothc
waste material from the blood, without rol
biug it of a particle of the life fluid, passe
human comprehension. In health this blood
purifying process is carried on without ou
knowledge. The organs in which it is don
are faithful servants whoso work is silout a
long as health remains.
".People strangely wait until pain strikes i

any trouble. They do not know that paii
concerns chiefly the exterior, not the interio
of the body. A certain sot of nerves counec
these blood-purifying organs with the brain.
They may not gnaw aud bito as does th<

These event* should not have been unexpected,
for nature long ago hung
out her 'lanterns of alarm.' When tht
"accident" finally comes, its fatal elfect is
seen in a hundred forms; either as congestion,
chronic weakness, as wrong action, as
variable appetite, as head trouble*, as palpitation
and irregularities of the heart, a.s
premature deca3*, as dryness ami harshness
of the skin, causing the hair to drop out or
turn gray, as apoplexy, as paralysis, as general
debility, blood poisoning, etc.
"Put no" faith then in the wiseacre who
says there is no danger as long as there is 110
pain. Put no faith in the physician, whoever
ho may be, who says it is a mere cold
or a slight indisposition. He knows little, if
any. more than you do al>out it. Ho can

is wrong and disease and death are not

"These organs which wo have described
thus at length, because they are really the
must important ones in the human system,
the ones in which a large majority of human
ailments originate and are sustained, are the
kidneys. They have not l?een much discussed
in public, because it is conceded thai, the pro?
fession has little known power over them.
What is wanted for such organs is a simple
medicine, which can do no harm to tho most
delicate, but must be of tho greatest benefit
to the afllicted. Such a remedy, tried
aud proved by many thousands all
over the world, is Warner's saf?
cure. With those in whom disease is deep
seated it is the only specific. For those in
whom the seeds are sown and the beginning
of illness started it is an unfailing reliance.
