AN EXECUTION IN INDIA.
The Wny n Mini Utility of Murder L'n
tlrm on! I>roni?ltttt loii.
A letter from India to it German pa?
per elves this account of the execution
near ltoinlmy of a mint who hail heeu
found guilty of the murder of his
brother ln-lnw: "The question as to
whether the culprit shoultl be executed
or sent to prison for life was, as Is (he
custom, submitted to the family of the
murdered man for decision. All. in?
cluding the wife of the murdered, vot?
ed for death. Wheu the place of ex?
ecution was reached the condemned
man knelt, ami the ropes which were
fastened to him were handed over to
the executioner's assistants. The one
who held the neck rope took a few
steps before the kneeling man and the
other two stood at either side. Then
tlie executioner, armed with a razor
edged, heavy knife, advanced and
aslu-il In a loud voice, 'Who authorizes
the execution':' mid the chief of police
answered, 'The law.' The question
was asked anil answered three times,
while the armed muu advanced, slowly
swinging (be mighty blade. As the
last answer was heard an assistant
executioner thrust a needlu point into
the kneeling man's hack and he made
an Involuntary motion forward with his
head. The three ropes were pulled
taut, leaving the neck extended to the
utmost. At the .same Instant the knife
whirred through the ttlr ami tho head
of the murderer rolled In the sand."

"Hook of Mormon."
The "Book of Mormon" has boon
proved to be a literary plagiarism, be?
ing a free paraphruso of a romance
written by the Itev. Solomon Spalding
in 1810, the manuscript of which came
Into tin; possession of Joseph Smith,
and he, sitting behind a curtain, die
j tated It to Oliver (,'owdery, who. sent
I ed out of sight of the reader, wrote
[ the matter as it wits given him. Smith
pretended that the book was discov?
ered to him by revelation and dug up
from the side of a hill not far from
Palmyra, in the county of Ontario, N.
Y. The claim was made by Smith thnt
the writiug on the plates was engraved
In "reformed Egyptian," which he was
unable to read uutll magic spectacles,
which he called his Urlm and Thum
mlm, were given to him, enabling him
both to read and translate Into Eng?
lish. The spectacles uud the metal
plates have disappeared, aud tho story
of the dictation makes tolerably clear
the manner In which the "Book of
Mormon" bad Its origin.
It Vnyn to lie Cheerful,
The spirit of cheerfulness Is some
times tho result of a happy tempert.
iuent whose nerves havo never been
disturbed by loss, sickness of calamity.
Sometimes It Is the ubundnucc of youth
ill Unding a surplus of vigor after the
tolls of the day. Sometimes It Is the
expression of character which from
tho reserves of Its own nature and ex?
perience ts able to preserve a cheerful
disposition under even the most dis?
couraging circumstances and face life
ajways with hopo and good cheer.
Stich a character Is a strength and a
defense not only to him who has it,
but to all his associates and to all who
feel his influence. They are the watch
towers of humanity, whoso lights
shine through the dark uight of human
struggle and whose word Is nu Inspira?
tion of hope and encouragement.
Color and Light.
The peculiar simplicity of the coun?
try dnky In the south Is Illustrated by
a story told by n cougrcssmau.
An old negro had gone to a poatof
flee In Mississippi and offered for the
mnil a letter that was over the weight
specified for a single stamp.
"This Is too heavy." said the post?
master. "You will have to put another
stamp on It."
'The old darky's eyes widened In as?
tonishment. "Will nnudder stamp
make It any lighter, boss?" he nsked.?

The minister had preached to the
graduating class of a girls' college.
The girls of the class were ou the

"I felt," confessed the preacher to
Ids wife when he got home, "like a
I i-row on n snowdrift"

Home Interesting details have boo;
given out lately as tu tho stuns volttii
tartly paid to British novelists bj
American publishers before tho days of
llttot'.untllounl Copyright. Any Aniorleuu
linn could reprint at once whatever Is?
sued from the English presses, hut
some publishers arranged with British
authors for advance sheets of f Or tit'
coining works, thus enahllug them !?>
gel the start uf "piratical" linns which
paid the author nothing, it Is Interest?
ing to observe the occasional disparity
betvypeu the merit ut' the bo >k and the
price paid. The whole thing was lu
(he nature of a leap In the dark. Often
the sum given by the American pub
Usher was really more than the Amer?
ican rights would probably have been
worth had it been possible to secure
them by copyright. Thus Anthony
Trollope got $3,500 for "Sir Harry Hot?
spur," one of bis poorest novels; Gcorga
Eliot $8,500 for "Daniel DuroudU" and
Charles ltcado $6,000 for "A Woman
Hater." .No intbllsher today woTild
pay any such sums for these books If
be were permitted to read them before
buying.
On the other hand, by way of com?
parison, the very best books brought
their authors only trilling returns from
America. Charles Uoade received only
$200 for "Put Yourself In Ills Place."
$1,000 Tor "Hard Cash." these being
two of bis Jlnest novels, and $1,000 for
"Love Mo Little, Love Me Long."
Thackeray got only $750 for "The New
comes" and $."(Ol) for "Henry Esmond."
Trollope obtained from tho Harpers
S12B for "Tho Bertrams," $nr.o for
"Ca,stle Richmond," $500 for "I'hlnens
Finn," $'.250 for "The Eustace Dla
monds," "Orley Farm," "Lady Anna"
and "Italph the I loir." The $r.<m for
his "Cicero" Is fully as much as any
American publisher would give today
for the copyright of such a book.
G'eorgo Eliot received only $100 for
"Adam Bode" and $500 for "Silas Mar
ner." "The Mill on the Floss" brought
her $1,500.
Wllkt? Collins ami Dickens were tho
most popular authors of tho preenpy
right period, and they fared best of all
at the hands of their authorized Amer?
ican publishers. The former drew from
thlB country $1,800 for "The Woman In
White," $3,750 each for "The Moon?
stone" and "Man and Wife" and $3,000
for "Poor Miss Finch." To Dickons
the Harpers paid $1,250 for ??Little
Dorrlt." $1,800 for "Bleak House."
$5,000 each for "Our Mutual Frlcud"
nnd "A Tnle of Two Cities" and $7,5U0
for "Grent Expectations," this last rep?
resenting the high water mark of such
voluntary payments.?Bookman.
