Subject: "Laughter" Text : "Then was our mouth filled with laughter." Psalm exxvi., 2. "He that slt teth in tha heavens shall laugh." Psalm 11., 4. Thirty-eight times does the Biblo maks reference to this configuration of the fea tures and quick expulsion of breath which we call lnutrhter. Sometimes it la born of tha sunshine ami sometimes the miilnlght. Sometimes it stirs the BvmD,ithv of angels ami Sometimes tbe cachinnution of devils. All healthy people lauirh. Whether it pleases tho Lord or displeases Ilim, that de- enas upon when we laugh ana at what we augb. My theme to-day Is the laughter of the Bible nnmely, Sarah's laugh, or that of ekpticlsm ; David's laugh, or that of spirit ual exultation ; the fool's laugh, or that of sinful merriment ; Go l's laugh, or that of infinite condemnation ; heaven's laugh, or that of eternal triumph. Scene, an oriental tent. The occupants, old Abraham an 1 Karab, perhaps wrinkled aui decrepit. Their three guests are three angels, tho Lord Almisrhty one of them. In return for tho hospitality shown by the old people God promises Sarah thnt she shall become the ancestress of the Lor l Jesus Christ. Sarah laughs in the face of God, She does not believe it. She is affrighted at what she has done. She denies it. She says, "I did not laugh ." Thee Go J retorted with an emphasis that silence 1 all disputa tion, "But thou didst laugh." My friends, the laugh of skepticism In all ages i3 only the echo of Sarah's laughter. God says H 3 will accomplish a thing, and men say it can not be done . A great mult it ude laugh at tha miracles. They say they are contrary to thu laws of nature. What is a law of nature? It is Go l's way of doing a thing. You or dinarily cross a river at one ferry. To-morrow you change for one day. and you go across another ferry. You mado the rule. Have you not the right to change it? You ordinarily come in at that doorof the church. Suppose that next Sabbath you come in at the other door. It is a habit you have. Have you not a right to change your habit' A law of nature is God's habit His way of doing things. If Ho makes the law. ha3 He not a right to change it at any tiavi He wants to change it? Alas ! for tho folly of those who laugh at God when He s.iys, "I will do a thing," they responding. "You can't do it." Goi says that tho Bible is true it is all true. Bishop Colenso laughs, Herbert Spencer laughs, Stuart Mill laughs, great Garmau universities laugh, Harvard laughs softly. A great many of the learno! institutions, with long rows of pro fessor3 seated on the fen!e between Christianity and infidelity, laugh softly. They say, "We didn't laugh." That w.'H Sarah's trick. God thunders from the heavens. "But thou didst laugh!" The garden of E len was only a fable. There never was any ark liuilt, or if it was built it was too small to have two of every kin 1. Tho pillar of fire by night was only the northern lights, the ten plagues of Egypt only a brilliant specimen of jugglery. The sea parted because the wind blow violently a great while from one direction. The sun and moon did not put themselves out of tha w ay for Joshua. Jacob's ladder was only horizontal and picturesque clouds. The de stroying angel smiting the firstborn in Egypt was only cholera infantum become epidemte. The gullet of tho whale, by positive measurement, too small to swallow a prophet. Tho story of tho immaculate conception a shock to all decency. Thi lame, the dumb, the blind, the halt, curoJ by mere human surgery. The resurrection of Christ's friend only a beautiful tableau, Christ and Lawnis and Mary and Martha acling their parts well. My friends, there Is not a doctrine or statement of God's holy tvord that has not been derided by the akepticism of tho day. I take up this hook of King James's trans lation. I consider it a perfect Bible, but hero are skeptics who want it torn to pieces. And now, with this Biblo in my hand, let me tear out all those portions which tho skepticism of this day demands shall bo torn out. What shall go iirst? "Well." says sotio oue in the audience, "take outall that about the creation and about the Hr3t settlement of the world." Away goes Genesis. ,wNow,"' sav.s so no one, "take out all that about t lie miraculous guidance of the children of Israol iii tho wilderness." Away goes Exodus. "Now," savs some one elso in the an lienee, "thero are things in Deuteronomy and Kinirs that are not fit to Vie read." Away go D.-uteronomy and the Kings. "Now," says some ou', "the book of Job is a fable that ought loeomoout." Away goes the book of Job. "Now." says some one, "those pass ages in th New Testament which imply the divinity of Ji-sus Christ ought to come out." Away go the Evangelists. "Now," says some one. "the book of Kovelatiou how preposterous ! It represents a man with the moon under his feet and a sharp sword in bis hand." Away goes tho book of llevela tion. Now there are a few pieces left. What shall we do with tneai? "Oh," says sjmo man in tne au iience, "i uon t beiieve a word in tho Bibl from one end to the othi er." Well, it is all gone. Now you have put out the last light for the nations. Now H is the pitch darkness of eternal midniglit. How do you like it? Bat I think, my friends, we had better keep the Bible a little longer intact. It has done pretty well for a good many years. Thou there ire old people who And it a com fort to have it on their laps, and children like the stories in It. Lot U3 keep It for a curiosity anyhow. If the Bible is to bo thrown out of the school and out of tha courtroom, so that men no more swear by it, huh u is to do put in a uarK corridor of thq city library, the Koran on one side and tho writings of Confucius on the other, then lut us each one keep a copy for himself, for we might have trouble, and we would want to bo under the delusions of its consolations, nnd wo might die, and wo would want tho doluslon of tho exalted residence of God's right hand, which it mentions. Oh, what an awful thing it is to laugh in God's face and hurl His Revelation back at Him ! After Hwhiletho day. will come when, they will say tlu-yiTid not laugh. Ihen all the hyper criticisnis, all tho caricatures and all the learned sneers in the quarterly reviews will be brought to judgment, and timid the rock ing oi everything beneath and amid tho naming ot everything above God will thun der, "But thou didst laugh !" I think tha most fascinating laughter at Christianity I ever remember was a man in New England. He made the word of God seem ridiculous, and he laughed on at our holy religion until he came to die, and then he said : "My life has been a failure a failure domestically. I have no children. A failure socially, for I am treated in the streets like a pirate. A failure professionally because I know but one minister that has adopted my sentiments." For a quarter of a century he luughed at Christianity, and ever since Christianity has been laughing at him. Now, it is a mean thing to go into a man's house aud steal his goods, t ut I tell you tho most gigantic bur glary evei invented is the proposition to steal these treasurers of our holy religion. The meanest laughter ever uttered is the laugh of the skeptic. The next laughter mentioned in the Bible is David's laughter, or tho expression of spiritual exultation. "Then was our mouth tilled with laughter." He got very muoh down sometimes, but there are other chap ters where for four or live times he calls upoa the people to praise and exult. It was not a mere twitch of tho lips it was a demonstra tion that took hold ot his whole physical na ture. "Then was our mouch tilled with laughter." My friends, this world will never be converted to God until Christians cry less and laugh and sing more. The horrors are a poor bait. If people are to be persuaded to adopt our holy religion, it will be because they have made up their minds it is a happy religion. They don't like a morbid Chris ti.nvtj. I know there are morbid pe?ple who enjoy a ftinera'. They come early to seethe friends take leaveof the corpse, and they steal a ride to the cemetery, but all healthy people njoy a we ldingbetterthan they do a burial. Now. you make the religion of Christ s-'puichral and hearselike, and you make it repulsive. I sr.y plant the rose o( Sharon along tho church walks and columbine to clamber over the church wall, aud have a smile on tho lip, anl have the mouth illleJ with holy laughter. There la no man In the worl ', except tho Christian, that has a right to fed an untrammeled gle. He is promised everything is to be for tha Jxst h;r and he is on the way to a delight which will take all thtj processions with p ilm branches and all the orehestrai harped and cymbaled aud tru npete l to express. "Oh," you say. "I havj so much trouble.' H ive you more trouble than Paul hal? What does be say? "Sorrowful, yet always rejoicing. Poor, vot making many rich. Having uoto Ing. yet posnessing all thiugs." Tho merriest laugh I think I Ii.ivm evr heard has been in the sickroom of G id's dear children. When Theolosius was pat upon th-3 rack, he suf fere 1 very great torture at the tlrst. Homebody asked him how be enlunvl all that pain on the rack. He repliol : "When I was first put on the rack, I suffered agrat deal, but very soon a youug man in white fltood by my side, an 1 with a soft ani com fortable handkerchief lie "wipe 1 the sweat from my brow, and my pains were relieved. It was a punishment for me to get from the r-iiir, boiauso when the pain was all gone the angel was gon." 0' rejoice erermore ! You know how it is in tt. artay an army in encampment. If to-day news come-3 that our side has had a defeat, and to-morrow another portion o the tidings comes, say ing we have had a.iother defeat, it demoral ises all tho host, iiut If the news comes of victory to-day an I victory to-morrow the whole army is impassione 1 for the contest. Now. iu the kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ report fewer defeats tells us tho vic tories victory ovor sin and death an i hell, lt-joieo evermore, and again I say rejoice. I believe there Is more religion in a laugh than in a groan. Anybody can groan, but to laugh in the midst of banishment and persecution and indescribable trial, that re quired a David, a Daniel, a Paul, a molern heroine. The next laughter mentioned in the Bible that I shall speak of is tho fool's laughter, or the expression of sinful merriment. Solomon was very quick at sitnik-. When he makes a comparison, we all catch it. What is tho lausrliter of a fool like? He says. "It is tho crackling of thorus under a pot." Tim ket tle is swung, a bunch of brambles is put un der it, aud the torch is appllel to it, and there is a great noise, and a big blare, and a sputter an 1 a quick extinguishment. Then it is darker than it was before. Fool's laugh ter. The most miserable thing on earth is a b.sd man's fun. There they are ten men in a barroom. Thoy have at homo wive, mothers, daughters. The impure jest starts at oue corner of the barroom, and crackle, crackle, crackle it goes all arouud. In 503 sueh guffaws there is not one item of happi ness. They all feel benvaned if they havo any conscience left. Have nothing to do with men or women who tell immoral stories. . I have no conlldence either iu their Chris tian character or their morality. So all merriment that spriu rs out of thi defects of others j.iricatura of a la ne foot, or a curved spine, or a blind eye, or a deaf ear will be met with the judgment of Gol, either upon you or upon your childrrm. Twenty years ago I knew a man who was particularly skillful in imitating the lame uess of a neighbor. Not long ago a son of tho skillful mimic had his leg amputated for the very defect which his father ha I mimicked years before. I do not say it w is a judgment of God. I leave you to make your own inference. S- all merriment born of dissipation, that witch start3 at tiio counter of the drinkiug restaurant or the wineglass in tiie home circle, tho mau llin simp:T. tho meaningless joke, the s iturnaliau gibberish, the paroxysm ot mirth about noth ing which you sometimes see in tho fashion able clubroom or the exquisite parlor at twelve o'clock tit night, are the crackling of thorns under a pot. Such laughter and such bin end in death. When I was a lad, a book came out entitled, "Dow Junior's Patent Sermons." It made a great stir, a very wide laugh, all ovor tho country, that book did. It vas a caricature ol the Christian ministry, au I of the word of God, ani of the day of iu lgment. Oil, we ha I a great laugh ! Tii commentary on tho whole thiug is that tha author of that book died iu poverty, shame, deb iu mery, kicke 1 out of socn -'y and cursed of Almighty God. The lau 'liter of such m u is the echo of their own damnation. The next laughter that I shall mention as being in the Bible is tho 'aug'i of G J l's con demnation, "He that sitteth in tho heavens shall laugh." Agaiu. "The Lor 1 will laugti at him." Again, "I will laugh at his calam ity." AVitU sum demonstration will GjI greet every kin 1 of great sin and wieked-ue-ss. But men build up villainies higher an I higher. Goo 1 men almost pity God be cause lie is so schemed against by men. Su ideniy a pin drops out of tho machinery of wieke lner-s or a secret is rrfveale 1, anl tho foundation begins to rock. Fiuallj the whole thing is . demolished. Waat i tho matter? I wiil toll you what the matter is. That crash of ruin is only tan reverberation -u God's laughter. In tho money market there are a great mauy good men and a great many fraudulent men. A fraudulent man there says, "I mean to have my mil lion." He goes to work reckless of hon esty, and be gets his first 100,000. He gets after awhile his $200,000. After awhile lie gets his 500,000. "Now," he says, 'I have only oue more move to make, an 1 I shall have my million." He gathers up all his resources. He makes that one last granl move, ho fails anl lose3 all. and ho has not enough money of his own left to pay the cost of tho ear to his home. People can not uuderstanl this spasmodic revulsion. So ne said it was a sudden turn in Erie Bail way stock, or in Western Union, or in Illi nois Central ; some said oui thing and some another. They all guesse I wrong. I will tell you what it was. "He that sitteth in the heavens laughed." A man in New York said he would be the richest man in the city. II j loft his honest work as a mechanic an I got into the oily councils some way an I in ten years stole 15,00'),00fJ from the city govern ment. Fifteen million dollars ! He held the Legislature of the State of New York in the grip of his right hand. Suspicions were urousod. The granl jury presented indict ments. The whole lan 1 stoo 1 aghast. Ta3 man who expected to put half the city in his vest pocket goes to Blaekwell's Island, goes to Lu llow street jail, breaks prison and gv;s across tho sea, is rearrested anl brought back and again remando I to jail. Why? "lie that sitteth in the heavens laughed." Homo was a great umpire. Sao had Horace and Virgil among her poets ; she had Augus tus and Cou?tautine among her empjrors. But what mean the defaced Pantheon, anl the Forum turned into a cattle market, an.l the broken walled Coliseum, an I ttu archi tectural skeleton of her great aquelu?t3? What was that thunder? "Oh," you say, that was the roar of tho battering rams against her wlls." No. What was that quiver? "Oh,' you say, "that was the tramp of hostile legions. ' No. The quiver aud the roar were the outburst of omnipotent laughter from the defied and iusulte I heav Hiis. Home defied God, and He laughed her down. Thebes defied Go 1. and He laughed her down. Nineveh defied God, and He laughed her down. Babylon defied Gol, and HIaughed her down. There is a great difference between Go l's laugh and His smile. His smile is eternal beatltule. H ) smiled when David sang, aud Miriam clappe I the cymbals, and Hannah made girments f r her son, an 1 Paul preached, anl John kindled witu apocalyptic vision, and when any man has unvthing to do anl do ;.s it well. His smile ! "Why, it is the 15th of M ly, theappH orchards in full bloon ; it is morn ing breaking en a rippling sea ; it is heaven at high noon, all the bells healing tho mar riage pea'. But His laughter may it never fail ou us ! It is a condemnation for our sin : it i3 a wasting away. Wo may let the satirist laug'.i at us, anl all our companions may laugh at us. and we may bo made the target for the merrimjut of enrlh and hell, bul God forbid that we should ever ome to tho fulfillment of tha prophecy a-jainst the rejectors of the truth, "I will laugh at your calamity." But, my fri 's, ad of us who reject Christ and the pardon of the gospel must come under that tremendous bomliardment. God wants us all to repent. H counsels, He coaxes. He importunes, and He dies for us. He comes down out of heaven. He puts all the world's sin on oneshoulder, He puts all the world's sorrow on the other shoulder, and then with that Alp ou one side and that Himalaya on the other He starts up the hill back of Jeru salem to achieve our salvation. Heputs the palm f His right foot on one lone spike, and He puts the palm of His lett foot on another long spike, and then, with His hinds spotted with His own blood. He gesticulates, saying : "Look, look and l.v With the crimson veil of My sacrifice I will coyer up all your sins ; with My dyin? irronu I will swallow up all your groans. Look ! Live !" But a thousand of you turn your back on that, an l then this voice of invitation turns to a tone divinely ominous, that sobs like a simoom through the first chapter of Proverbs. "Beeause I have called and y refused, I have stretched out My right hand, and no man regarded, but ye have set at naught all My counsel an l would none of JIv reproof, I. also, will laugh at your calamity." Oh, what a laugh that is -a deep laugh, a Ion?, reverberating laugh, an overwhelming laugh. God grant we may never hear it. But in this day of mercl'ul visitation yield your heart to Christ, tbat yon may spend all your life on earth un ler His smile and escape forever tho thun der of the laugh of God's indignatioD. The other laughter mentioned In the BibK the only one I shall spak of, la heaven's laughter, or the expiessiou of eternal triumph. Christ said to His dis ciple. "Blessed are ye that weep now. for ye shall laugh." That makes me know positively that we are not to spend our days in hr aveu singing long meter psalms. The formalistic nnd stiff notions of heaven that fome people have would make me nils 3rable. I am glad to know that the heaven of the Bible is not only place of holy worship, but of magniflceut sociality. "What," say you. "will the ringing laugh go arouud tho circles of the saved?" I say yes pure laughter, cheering laughter, holy lauarhter. It will be a laugh of congratulation. When wo meet a friend who has suddenly come to a fortune, or who has got over some dire sickness, do we not shake hands, do wo not laugh with htm? And when we get to heaven nnd see our friends ther- uomo of them having come up out of great trii-ulation. why. we will say to oue of them, "The last time I saw you you had been suffering for six weeks under a low intermit tent fever." or to another we will say : iou for ten years were limping with the rheu mati3m. and you were full of complaints when we saw you last. I congratulate you oji his 6116.001-." Wa ahall lauKh. Yes, "we shall congratulate all those who have come out of great financial embarrassments in this world because they have become mill ionaires in heaven. Ye shall laugh. It shall bo a laugh of reasso.datlon. It is just ..,, 1 fnr im fr I.-mirll when V9 meet 'A uaviiKki ' -' . " - ' friend we have not seen for ten years as any thing is possible to be natural. When we meet our friends from whom we have been parted ten or twenty or thirty years, will it not be with infinite congratula tion? Our perception quickenel, our knowledge improved, we will know each other ut a flash. We will have to talk over all that has happened since wo have been separated, the onotbjit ha3 bean ten years iu heaven telling us toll that h;is happane 1 in the ten years of his? Aeavonly residence, and we telling him in return all that has hap pened during the ten years of his absence from earth. Ye shall laugb. I think George Whitefield and John Wesley will have a laugh of contempt for their earthly colli sions, and Toplady and Charles Wesley wiil have a laugh of contempt for their earthly misunderstandings, and tho two farmers who were in a lawsuit all their days will have a laugh of contempt over their earthly disturbance about a line fence. Exemption from ell annoyance. Immersion in all glad ness. Ye shall laugh. Christ says so. Ye jhall laugh. Yes, it will bo a laug'a of tri umph. Oh. what a pleasant thing it will be to stand on the wall of heaven and look down at satan and hurl at him defiance and mo him caged and chained and we forever free from his clutches ! Aha! Yes, It will be a laugh of royal greeting. You know how the Frenchmen cheered when Napoleon came back from Elba ; you know how tho English cj33reJ waen W Isl ington came back from Waterloo ; you km,v qow Americans cheered when Kossuth ar ;ived from Hungary ; you remember how Rome cheerod when Pompey came back vic arious over 900 cities. Every cheer wa3 a i.augh. But. oh, the mightier greeting, the jfladder greeting, when the snow white cav ilry troop of heaven shall go through the jtreets and, according to the Book oi Reve lation, Christ iu the rjd coat, the crimson coat, on a white hors- and all the armies of heaven following Him ou white horses ! Oil, when we sea and hear that cavalcade we shall che-r. we shall laugh ! Does not your heart boat quickly at the thought of the great jubilee upon which we are soon to en ter? I pray Go I that when wo get through with this world an 1 are going out ot it wj may have some such vision as the dying Christian had when he saw written all over the clouds in tho sky the letter "V." an I they asked him. standing bv his side, what he thought that 1-tter "W" m-int. "Oh," he sai l, "that stands for wel come." Aud so may it be when we quit this world. "Won the gate, "W" on the door of the mansion. "W" on the throne. Wel come ! Welcome ! Welcome ! I have preached this sermon with live prayerful w;s!,es that you might see waat a mean thing is the laugh of skepticism, what a bright this is the laugh of spiritual exulta tion, what u hollow thing is the laugh of sm- lul merriment, what an awful thing is th lau 'hct condemnation, what a radiaat, rubi cund thing is the laugh of eternal triumph. Avoid the ill ; choose the right. Be com forted. "Bicased are ya that weep now ye sbull laugh ; ya shall laugh." NEWSY GLEANINGS. The cherry crop is limited. Chicago has 90,000 Swedes.

Machincry Set in Motion to Make th Forty-tilth Member of the Union The Population, and Resources, Developed and Undeveloped, of the Mormon Territory. Utah practically pass3d into Statehool at midnight, when President Cleveland signe I the act enabling the Territory to be admitted Into the Union. There was nothing dramatic about the signing. Tae President merely took up a silver penholder, in which an ordinary steel fru" pen point was iusertei. and wrote "Ap nroved. Grover Cleveland." to the engross id copy of tho act. The silver penholder was furnished bv Mr. Rawlins, the Delegate in Congress from Utah, and he will present it to the new State, along with the pretty suede case in which it is enclosed. The signing of the bill loses one of the most remarkable contest in the history of American politics. Tbe Territory has ben an applicant for Statehood, and really elig ible in population and -wealth for many years. It has formed the only break in the string of States that stretches from the .V lant'c to the Pacific Oceans. The struggle over polygamy nnd the Mormon L-aurcn has deferred its admission until the present Hirrison. iu 189?. issu-? 1 a proclamation giving amnesty to all Mor nous - . ; j ""'V convictol ot polygamy, ana i-resiuui n.-vc-l.in 1 completed the final step in the prelim inary progress toward Statehood. According to tne operations oi in" en abling act. it will devolve upon the Presi dent, in November or December of l-8!), to issue a proclamation formally admitting Utah into the Union. Oue remarkable fe ;- ture in tho latter stagres of the contest has been the unanimity with which thetwo great political parties have acted in favor of ad mission. iSeitner parry now kuows wuicj will gain it when a btate. The bill empower Utah to government. Under it a Convention will meet next Cmmtitutinn framed bv U form a Slate Constitutional M ire.h. The will be sn'1- mitted to tne people of Utah for rat -iication in November, 1895. If it i-? ratified and. in the opinion of the Presi dent it provides for a representative form of government. Utah will be declaral a State by proclamation. andth forty-fifth star will be added to the flag. Under the law the Constitution must guarantee religious liberty and prohibit polygamy. A State Governor aud member of Congress will be chosen iu November. 1895. an I the Legislatura then elected will choose two United btates Senators, of who u, it is be lieved, the senior will be the present dele gate. Mr. Rawlins. Under the provisions of the St at eh oo 1 act Utah is to disclaim all title to tho unap propriated public lands, and all Indian Inn Is are to remain under the absolute jurisdiction of the United States. The Government con cedes liberal grants of lands to the State for public purposfs. One hundred sections are (riven for public buibiinns at the capital, 90, 000 acres for an agricultural college, t wo town ships and 110.000 acres for the University ot Utah ; for irrigating purposes. 500,000 acres ; for au insane asyium, for a school of mines, for a deaf and dumb asylum, for a reform schoal. for a State Normal School, for an in stitution forthe blind, each 10),000 aeres, and for a miners' hospita'. 50.000 acres. The United States Penitentiary, near Salt Lake City, is grant od to the State. All granted lands are to bo sold at pub lic sales for not less than $5 an acre, but the State may lease them for terms of five yeair.. Ten per ct-nt. of tho pro ceeds of tho sale of the public lands after tho admission of the State is to be paid by tho Government to tho Stats as a permanent fund for the support of the common schools, of which the interest only is available. All of the educatioual institutions are to remain uuder the ex clusive control of the State, and no part of the proceeds of tho land can bo used for the support of any sectarian or denominational school. Thes . are the principal provision of tho contract upon which the Government of the forty -four existing States admits to State hood the Territory of Utah. Her popula tion is now estimated at 2,25, 000. .and the pro portion of foreign born is less than in thir teen of the States. As to her resources, the assessed value of her real and personal property and improve ments for last year was $10360.111. and in incorporated cities and towns alone it was 9 1,533. 352. This last is an increase o. up ward of $7,000,000 above the value of the previous year, while the indebtedness of cities anl towns was put at .? 2,0-H,0:5'), a de crease from the year preceding. The value of the sheep alone in Utah is t2.6H.12S. that of tho cattle greater than tbat of the sheep, and ot the horses and mules greater still. The aggregate valuation of these animals exceeds $8,000,000. The mineral product for 1892 was reported as $16,276,818.01. Turning to the undeveloped resource.?, large deposits of iron and copper ores an I great beds of coal and sulphur, of asphalt and salt are found. Agriculture is im peded by the aridity of mujh of the soil, yet there are many fertile and well-watered lands, and the progress of irrigation is adding to them. The Indians of the Terri tory are all quiet and peaceably disposed. The schools are thriving, thanks to the Frsa Schools laws, and Utah has an agricultural college, besides Deseret Univarsity. Above alJ, polygamy is dead, never to b resurrect ed either by Church or State, aud thus tho great obstacle of former yaars to Utah's ad mission is removed. THE LABOR WORLD. New York has 600 unions. London police get $6 a week. Iron moulders now use a label. France has female farm laborers. Detooit, Mich., has a Pastor's Union. Sthactjse, N. Y., has a labor lyceum.

Eugene Prendergast was hanged in tht county jail at Chicago, for the murder ot Mayor Carter H. Harrison last October. Th drop fell at 11.40 a. m. He did not break down at the last as his keepers had expected. Between six and seven o'clook a, m. no par took heartily of a breakfast, and at about nine o'clock sent work to the Jailer that he was aain hungry, and was served with an other "hearty meal. He talked freely with his spiritual advisers. As the hour for hU execution came nearer, he showed soma Blgns of nervousness, but on the whole wa remarkably calm. The jury of physicians at 11.10 inspectel the scaffold and appurtenances. Fifty de puty sheriffs were ranged around the sides of the corridor and after a short wait the inaroh to the scaffold was begun. Sheriff Gilbert and Jailer Morris appear 3d nt the right of the scaffold, aad tho prisoner walked behind them. He stood without ap parent nervousness as his arms were being Dinioned. and seemed determined to die l ... I S nlnd.:l ..K..1, game. A wnite saruu'i wj yta nuuui him, and the jailor plaoed the rope aroun 1 his neck and the white cap over his head. An instant later he shot downward. His neckVas apparently broken. He hung sur rounded by the jury ot physicians for nine minutes and was then pronounced dead. The body was then lowered, placed in a coffin, and taken into the outer court for delivery to his relatives after the customary formali- Prendergast made no audible sound from the time he left his cell. He was dissuaded by Sheriff Gilbert from his determination ex pressed earlier in tha day to make a speech. The crime which Patrick Eugene Prender gast expatiated with his life was the murder of Mayor Carter Harrison, of Chicago, ou the night of October 28, 1893. Tho assassin called at tho Mayor's residence and said ho was a city official. Ha walked past the servant and found Mr. Harrison. A few minutes later the crack of a revolver was heard, and Prendergast rushed out of the front door. Tho Mayor died iu a very short time. About 9 o'clock of the same evening the assassin gave himself up to the police. Prendergast was indicted by tho Grand Jury October 30, two days after tho commis sion of the crime. The trial resulted in a verdict of guilty four days after Christmas, and tho execution was set for March 23. Tho defense claimed that Prendergast was insane, and, as the law of Illinois forbids the execution of a prisoner while insane, a stay was s: cured end an insanity trial or dered. T ie arguments and postponements wora long, but a decision that tue accusod was san ) was fiually reaehed, anl tho dato of execution set lor July 13. ARTILLERYMEN KILLED.

At least $25,000 worth of damage was done to the property of the residents on both sides of Grand Boulevard for half a block north of Oakwood Boulevard. Houses in adjoining streets were also damaged, principally by broken windows and door glass. The body of troops wero preceding south from the Lake Front along Grand Boulevard at a trot. Having no rioter3 to queli or railroad property to protect, the soldiers were out for drill and exercise. lien with in 109 feet of Oakwood Boulevard there cam- a crash like thunder, followed in an instant by a succession of sharp explosions. Men, horse.3, wheels and caisson rose in the a r. The artillerymen received the brunt of the explosion, being directly in the rear of the missiles and powder. Donovan was blown through tho nir over trees fifty feet high a distance of 501 feet across a vacant lot, dropping on the U i'ou Stock Yard's railroad tracks. Part oi mo 1" was torn off.

FASTEST OF WARSHIPS. THE CRUISER MINNEAPOLIS BREAKS ALL RECORDS. She Attained to i Maximum Speed of 2."20 Knots on Her Formal Trial Trip A Sustained Speed ofJ.TO.") Knots A Premium of SUl2,o00 Famed for Her Builders. By making a run off Bo-don oT 83.94 mil in three hours, forty-nine minute and two seconds, tlwe latest addition to tho United States Navy, the Minnapo'is proved hor-lf tho fastest seagoing oruis -r. Her sp-e I has never been approached except by tho Columbia, whli h ovor the srmo eorn lat November covered the same dUtune" iu thren hours, fiftyon minutes an 1 twenty-four seconds. The CohimhiVs average speed was 2X80 an hour, which has twn the riwird for lnrge crnis.-rs until th" Minneapolis rals-vl th figures a quarter of a knot, anl now holds th record with an average speed over tho forty-four mile course of 23.05 knots. The Secretary of tho Navy, accompanied by tho official Trial Board, Commodore Self ridge, President, and alout 103 Invited guests, reached the Minneapolis in a tug boat at eight o'clock a. m. nawii-j , in lAiuiiw-i leui ; ieuaior Yvnsnriurn, of Minnesota ; Congressmen Cummtngn, of New York ; Cogswell, of Miiss.t.-husotls ; Hu lick, of Ohio, and Money, of Mississippi, and Chief Engineer Melville. At 9.41.08 the Minneapolis dashed across tho line and immediately the onViol inspec tors and the amateur inspectors began their calculations as to her speed. It require I but six minutes and twenty-two Heouds to cover tho first leg of the course, thus giving heraspeod of 22.74 knot, and considering the fact that she had slarfo 1 without a full head of steam the builders were sat Is II d with the result. With her engines still working nt high speed tho Minneapolis made a detour of alio ut s'ven nines ana inert liomioi unci more in a straight line for the course. Everything depended upon this homeward run. She was very close to tho Columbia's speed forthe first half. That vfmI had covered tho distance in ouo hour. 55 min utes and 7 sih'ouds. It took the Minneapolis 1 hour. 55 minutes and H seconds, n record of 22.90 knots as against 22.92 knots for the Columbia. The lino was crossed iu front of tho Dol phin, on the homeward run, 11.58 o'clock. The firemen were ;:s busy as beavers down in the vessel, and the forced draught lifted big chunks of cinders out of the long smoke stacks. Tho big cruiser's machinery throbbo 1, and all on board knew that she was speeding as no vessel nnd ever before don". When the Vesuvius was passed a little figuring showed that the speed had beeu 25.20 knots. It was the best record shown. Tho prospects for a new record lookel bright, but were .H.nme 1 temporarily by tho report that the speed between the Atlanta and tho Fori nne was only 21.80, as against 22.09 on the first trip. But the engines be gan to throb with ren-we 1 vigor, and the riv maining legs of th "oiirse were covered iu 22.0. 22.07 and 23.22 knots respectively, making the elapsed time for the homeward tripouiy lh. 53 n. 42s, and the .average tqiee d 23.23 knots, or an average of 23.05 knots for the whole course. Wild cheers followed the annouifeinent of the new world's reeor I, r.n I th e hoisting of brooms to each masthead informed the peo ple on thf. yaahts and lifea ni-ra swarming around tho finish line tint the Minneapolis Was tho fleetest ship in the world.

J-.x-Seeretary I racy followed suit, and then all the naval officers who had been watching the cruiser's per formance crowded around the ( rnmpi to add their cot grat illations. It was not to be v.'in b red at that when this result was known it spread through I ho ship with HinrveloiM rapidity, and that t he news was greeto 1 everywhere with cheers.
