Penned between 1946 and 1961, Ernest Hemingway's novel The Garden of Eden remained incomplete at the time of its author's suicide, but finally appeared in 1986, as the second posthumously published Hemingway novel following the 1970 Islands in the Stream. As directed by John Irvin (Turtle Diary) and scripted by James Scott Linville, this screen adaptation faithfully adheres to the original story. The tale takes place in the 1920s, on the Côte d'Azur of the French Riviera, where David Bourne (Jack Huston), a youngish American writer, and his gorgeous wife, Catherine (Mena Suvari), spend a tranquil honeymoon. Tranquil, that is, until Catherine grows restless and dissatisfied, and brings into their midst Marita (Caterina Murino), an Italian girl to whom they both feel magnetically attracted. In seemingly no time at all, her sensual presence threatens to tear the marriage asunder. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

The oppressive air over a small fishing village begins to lift after a neglected wife convinces a local witch to secretly replace the patron of their church with the Black Witch. Though the founder of the village approves the change, it's performed without the knowledge of the general population. Once the ritual has been completed, tensions around the village begin to dissipate and love fills the air. But just as the woman who invoked change prepares to spread the secret of true happiness, a group of young children accidentally destroy the image of the Black Virgin, and the town experiences a disturbing shift in mood. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Two sisters learn that the bonds of family don't always end after death in this gentle observational comedy drama that marks celebrated Spanish filmmaker Pedro Almodóvar's 16th feature. The story explores the interactions between three generations of women in a Spanish family. Raimunda (Penélope Cruz) was born and raised in the apocryphal village of Alcanfor de las Infantas, in La Mancha, Spain. However, she now resides in Madrid, where she works as a janitor. She is married to Paco (Antonio de la Torre), an unemployed layabout, and looks after her daughter, Paula (Yohana Cobo). Raimunda's mother, Irene (Carmen Maura), died several years back (along with her father) in a house fire. Raimunda's younger sister, Sole (Lola Dueñas), also lives in Madrid and works as a hair stylist, while their aunt Paula (Chus Lampreave) still makes her home in La Mancha, with occasional help from neighbor Agustina (Blanca Portillo). The story takes an unusual and mystical twist when Agustina mentions that Irene has begun reappearing in ghostly form -- a fact questioned by Raimunda and Sole. After a murder and an unexpected family tragedy, Paula's story is indeed corroborated by the appearance of Irene's spirit (who has come to comfort her family), and Sole must decide how to respond to the long-dead mother's strange, enchanting presence. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A Jewish-American woman still reeling from her breakup with her Spanish-Israeli fiancée hits the road with a middle-aged Israeli woman, who is looking to collect the 30,000-dollar debt owed to her by her husband's former business partner, and a Palestinian woman, who claims to know the elusive moneyman's whereabouts, in this road-trip drama from Kippur director Amos Gitai. In her efforts to escape the painful memory of her breakup with former fiancée Julio (Aki Avni), Rebecca (Natalie Portman) agrees to accompany Hanna (Hanna Laslo) on her arduous journey through Israel to the Free Zone -- a tax- and customs-free region where those from countries at war with one another amiably buy and sell cars -- in hopes of collecting a large debt owed to her by her ailing husband's business partner known only as "The American." When Hanna and Rebecca finally arrive in the Free Zone only to discover that Hanna's contact and money have mysteriously gone missing, a Palestinian woman named Leila (Hiam Abbass) agrees to lead the skeptical Hanna to both "The American" and Hanna's rightly due cash. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

25 Degrees en Hiver
One man finds himself pulled in three directions at once by his family and a chance acquaintance in this breakneck comedy. Miguel (Jacques Gamblin) is a single parent and Spanish expatriate living in Belgium who has to deal with a young daughter, Laura (Raphaelle Molinier), his busybody mother, Abuelita (Carmen Maura), and his pushy brother, Juan (Pedro Romero). Miguel works for Juan's travel agency as a courier and errand boy. Shortly after sending Laura off to school, Juan gets an urgent call from Miguel and he has to head to the airport. En route, Miguel gets caught in a traffic jam and encounters Sonia (Ingeborga Dapkunaite), an illegal alien from the Ukraine who is on the run from police after being freed from custody by a group of activists. Sonia has been searching for her boyfriend who disappeared in Belgium a year ago, and after much haranguing Miguel agrees to help her, but that's before he gets word from Abuelita that an accident has sent his daughter to the hospital. Fortunately Laura's injuries are minor, but once Laura and Abuelita hear Sonia's story, they decide to drop everything to help her find her man with Miguel along for the ride, regardless of Juan's feelings about the matter (or Miguel's, for that matter). 25 Degres en Hiver was the first feature film from writer and director Stéphane Vuillet. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Sarah (Élodie Bouchez) a young Carmelite nun, collapses in pain, dazed and spouting a nonsense phrase. Concurrently, a great distance away, her identical twin sister, Gaëlle (also Bouchez), in prison, wakes up to find her cell in flames. While Gaëlle, the victim of an attack by her fellow prisoners, is transferred to a different prison, Joachim (Gérard Depardieu), a Cecilian (both a doctor and a priest) visits with Sarah. He's perplexed by her case because her tests all came back normal, and he deducts that her spells must have a psychological source. But Sarah isn't forthcoming about her past, and Mother Emmanuelle (Carmen Maura), who runs the convent, doesn't even want Joachim to treat the young woman. Through his investigations, Joachim learns that Sarah has a twin sister, to whom she may have some kind of psychic connection. Delving deeper into the past, he discovers that Gaëlle went to prison for a horrible crime at around the same time Sarah entered the convent. Joachim is dealing with the violence of his own past, and cannot let go of his prying, despite the advice of his colleagues. He finds Gaëlle after she is released on parole, and takes her in. Their relationship becomes more complicated, and they are threatened by others who would prefer that the past stay buried. The Pact of Silence was based on a novel by Marcelle Bernstein. It was adapted for the screen by Roselyne Bosch (1492: Conquest of Paradise) and directed by Graham Guit. The film had a theatrical release in France, but was released straight-to-video in the U.S. ~ Josh Ralske, Rovi

A hyperstylized tribute to spaghetti westerns courtesy of fearless Spanish director Alex de la Iglesia, 800 Bullets finds young Carlos (Luis Castro) striking out on his own in search of his long-lost father. Swiping his shrewish businesswoman mother's (Carmen Maura) credit card and setting his sights on Almeria, Carlos begins his quest to learn the truth about his father after his curiosity is sparked while thumbing through old photographs. Carlos comes into contact with his alcoholic grandfather Julian (Sancho Gracia) shortly after arriving in Almeria, where the one-time Clint Eastwood stunt double is still chasing his dreams of stardom. Rumored to have caused Carlos' father's death years earlier when a dangerous stunt went horribly awry, Julian now spends his days staging elaborate Western shows for tourists on the abandoned film sets. As the young boy quickly wins the affections of the rough and tumble stunt crew, the arrival of his mother begins to threaten his newfound happiness when she reveals plans of turning the location into an amusement park. As the hapless crew faces the prospect of being displaced by the greed of modern society, they are forced to defend thier territory by replacing their blanks with 800 real bullets. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Venerable Argentinian filmmaker Alejandro Agresti turns his lens to his own childhood in this nostalgic coming-of-age tale. Set in the director's hometown of Buenos Aires circa 1964, Valentin centers around its title character (and ostensible stand-in for the director), a nine-year-old boy (Rodrigo Noya) whose feuding parents have left him to be raised by his sage, eccentric grandmother (Carmen Maura). With his father (Agresti) visiting only occasionally, Valentin is left to look to the other men in the neighborhood for father figures, and to replace his absent mother, he warms to Leticia (Julieta Cardinali), one of his father's many short-term girlfriends. When he tells her personal secrets about his father, however, Valentin jeopardizes their relationship. ~ Michael Hastings, Rovi

The fifth feature of noted Spanish filmmaker Alex de la Iglesia, La Comunidad is a frenetic black comedy set in a decrepit old house in the center of Madrid. One of the house's new residents is Julia Garcia (Carmen Maura, whose performance won her a best actress award at the 2000 San Sebastian Film Festival), a real estate agent who has taken an apartment to revive her sagging marriage. One day, while engaging in some bedroom bliss, Julia and her unemployed husband Ricardo (Jesus Bonilla) are attacked by cockroaches that rain down on them through a crack in the ceiling. During a subsequent investigation of the upstairs apartment, firemen discover a man's rotting corpse. Julia later conducts her own investigation of the apartment and discovers almost 15 million dollars hidden away under the floor boards -- the result of a soccer-pool win by the apartment's dead owner. She decides to take the winnings and run, but while removing the cash, meets her neighbor Ramona (Terele Pavez), who quickly becomes suspicious of Julia's activities. It turns out that everyone in the building knew about the money and agreed to share it amongst themselves, a plan severely compromised by Julia's desire to keep the money for herself. After inviting Julia to a welcome party held by the residents' association, her neighbors go to extreme lengths to get the money, and plenty of cartoon-colored murder and mayhem ensues. ~ Rebecca Flint Marx, Rovi

Le Harem De Mme Osmane
An off-beat comedy that takes an unconventional look at the problems of contemporary Algeria, writer-director Nadir Mokneche's debut feature is set in 1993 Algiers. As the country veers toward civil war, Madame Osmane (Spanish actress and former Almodóvar mainstay Carmen Maura) exercises a casual dictatorship over the tenants of her apartment building. A former freedom fighter whose husband -- also an ex-freedom fighter -- is living in France with another woman, Madame Osmane is determined to control the lives of her daughter Sakina (Linda Slimani), her batty maid, Meriem (Biyouna), young, French-born wife Yasmine (Myriam Amarouchene), and various other tenants. Over the course of the film, Madame Osmane manages to ruin Sakina's engagement to her biology teacher, Yasmine discovers that her husband has a second wife, and the women do their best to exist against a backdrop of political and cultural instability. Due to the dangerous political situation in Algeria, Le Harem de Mme Osmane was filmed in Morocco. ~ Rebecca Flint Marx, Rovi

El Entusiasmo
Set in Chile in the early 1990s, when the brutal oppression of the Pinochet regime had given way to a democratic government (and a capitalist economy that proved to have flaws of its own), El Entusiasmo/Enthusiasm begins in 1984, when Guillermo (Alvaro Rudolphi) introduces two of his friends to each other -- Fernando (Alvaro Escobar) and Isabel (Maribel Verdu). A decade later, Fernando and Isabel have a son, and they join forces with Guillermo to start a business offering sightseeing expeditions for tourists visiting the newly-democratic nation. Fernando gets an idea for a special multi-media presentation that would educate viewers on Chile's history, culture and political legacy, and it proves to be a major success -- enough so that he's roped by a group of less-than-trustworthy developers who want his help with a project building luxury housing in the desert. However, this is the opposite of the utopian collective that Guillermo had dreamed of years ago; Fernando's new ideals and associates alienate both Guillermo and Isabel, who turn against Fernando and into each others arms. El Entusiasmo/Enthusiasm was shown as part of the "Directors Fortnight" program at the 1999 Cannes Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Can a gay man find happiness with the mother of Jesus Christ? Mario $Gregoire Colin) is a openly homosexual hairdresser who one day meets Marie-Helene (Isabelle Carre) when he sees her singing beside a tree in a park. They get to know each other and Mario discovers Marie-Helene believes she is the Virgin Mary; though obviously pregnant, she says no man had anything to do with her unborn child. Marie-Helene also needs a place to live, so Mario brings her home, which comes as a shock to his step-mother (Carmen Maura) and half-sister, who aren't used to seeing Mario socializing with women, let along pregnant virgins. However, Marie-Helene's kindness and grace soon wins everyone over, even if her story is less than convincing. This surreal fable was the directorial debut for filmmaker Jean-Claude Janer. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A period piece that blends first love, the power of the cinema and the Mexican Revolution, El Cometa is set in 1910, as Medero's factions were organizing against the Profirio Diaz regime. Romualdo (Gabriel Retes) owns a traveling vaudeville show and has just lost his star attraction when his son Victor (Diego Luna) meets Guy (Patrick LeMauff), a French cinematographer who has worked for Lumiere. Victor is fascinated by the possibilities of the movies, and when Guy discovers Romualdo needs a new drawing card, he offers him a deal -- a movie set-up at a bargain price in exchange for helping to hide Valentina (Ana Claudia Talancon), a girl whose father was arrested for working with Medero's rebels. Valentina is also carrying a fortune in gold which she hopes to smuggle to Medero, who is hiding in Texas, but in the meantime she and Victor begin a romance and Valentina becomes the new star of the show while trying to elude the police. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

In Brief
- Thunderclouds emit gamma rays in powerful, millisecond-long bursts called terrestrial gamma-ray flashes, first discovered by space observatories.
- These bursts can also produce beams of electrons and even of antimatter that can travel halfway around the globe.
- All proposed explanations for the phenomena involve strong electric fields unleashing avalanches of electrons inside clouds, but none fully accounts for the sheer energies of the gamma rays.
- New dedicated space missions and research aircraft may solve the mystery, as well as find out if the flashes pose radiation exposure risks for airline flights.
Soon after the space shuttle atlantis launched a new observatory into orbit in 1991, Gerald Fishman of the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center realized that something very strange was going on. The Compton Gamma Ray Observatory (CGRO), designed to detect gamma rays from distant astrophysical objects such as neutron stars and supernova remnants, had also begun recording bright, millisecond-long bursts of gamma rays coming not from outer space but from Earth below.
Astrophysicists already knew that exotic phenomena such as solar flares, black holes and exploding stars accelerate electrons and other particles to ultrahigh energies and that these supercharged particles can emit gamma rays—the most energetic photons in nature. In astrophysical events, however, particles accelerate while moving almost freely in what is essentially a vacuum. How, then, could particles in Earth's atmosphere—which is certainly nowhere close to being a vacuum—be doing the same thing?

HIGHLY IMPORTANT FROM UTAH. Conflict of Authorities. CIVIL AND MILITARY ECCLESIASTICAL DIFFICULTIES. Judge Cradlebaugh and the Mor-mon Grand Juries. TROUBLE IN PROSPECT. From Our Own Correspondent. CAMP TIMPANOGAS, 4 miles N. of Provo, U March 23 As I confidently predicted in former [--]ers, the Attempt to administer the laws at the Term of the United States District Court, now being holden in Provo by Judge Cradelbaugh, has thus far resulted, like every similar attempt made in Utah, in com-plete and signal failure. It is now demonstrated, more conclusively than ever, that the law of the land is a dead letter here—that it is superseded, set aside, and nullified by the ordinances of the Mormon Church, administered by the ecclesiastical hierarchy, and executed by the Danites, even, when occasion requires, to the taking of life. The presence of civil government here is a hollow sham—the actual rule of the Church is a bloody reality. The punish-ments for crime denounced by the Law are mere brutum fulmen—those awarded by the Church are errible and certain of execution. The presence here of an army with banners could not protect a poor deaf and dumb boy from falling a bloody sacri-fice to the molock of Mormonism. The Grand Jury impanneled at the present term of the District Court at Provo, although the most positive and direct testimony was adduced before them with regard to the murder of the two Par-ishes and Potter, sullenly and pertinaciously re- fused to the last, in open disregard of the obliga-tions of their oath, to take any action whatever in the matter. After it had become perfectly evident that nothing could be expected from them, Judge Cradelbaugh concluded to discharge them, which fee did, after addressing to them such an allocution as, I venture to say, no Judge ever had occasion to address to Jury before. I have been at some trouble to procure you a copy of it, which is here-with inclosed. Finding that the Grand Jury would not act, af-fidavits were made before the Judge, and bench-warrants issued against some of the most promi nent of the advisers and perpetrators of the Parrish murder. Under these warrants several arrests weie made before the alarm could spread among the accused, since which there has been a general stampede of all supposed to be implicated, and a general spiriting away and secreting of witnesses. Among the persons arrested was a man of the name of Bulloch, who fills the office of Mayor of Provo. He, however, after un-dergoing a preliminary examination before Judge Cradelbaugh, was discharged. There are four oth-ers still in custody, against whom ample testimony has been elicited to hold them for trial. They are A. F. McDonald, Carnes, Nethercot, and another man, whose name I can not now recall. They are in confinement, under charge of Capt. Heth's com-pany of the 10th Infantry, which, as I have before informed you, is stationed in Provo. The presence of this company in their very midst was gall and wormwood to the saintly fanatics of this most fa-natical of all the Mormon cities—the more especially so, as by the simple expedient of their presence the intent of the whole policy of the Mormon hierarchy in studiously avoiding to provide jails, or means of support for prisoners awaiting trial before the Federal Courts, was defeated. I shall endeavor to procure and forward to you for publication copies of an interesting correspond-ence between his Honor, Judge Cradelbaugh and the City Council of Provo in relation to this subject. Gov. Cumming, it seems, has likewise interested himself in the matter, siding, as was to be expected with his proteges. He has addressed a formal communication to Gen. John-ston on the subject, stating that he was much sur prised to find, on coming to the "village" of Provo, during the session of the United States Dis-trict Court, the Court-House, and ground ad-joining occupied by a company of the United States soldiers, and that, although he had, at the date of his communication, been several days in Provo, Capt. Heth, the commander of the troops in question, had not reported to him. I may be permitted here to remark that his Excellency ap-pears to labor under a very singular error in regard to the extent of his authority over that portion of the army of the United States stationed in Utah. Whatever his views may be, they do not appear to be coincided in at Department headquarters, for not only has Capt. Heth's company not been with-drawn from Provo, but since the receipt of the Governor's remonstrance, a large command of nine companies of infantry, a section of artillery, and a detachment of dragoons, all under command of Brevet-Major G. E. Paul, 7th-Infantry, has been ordered to take post near Provo, and is now here at Camp Timpanogas, within four miles of that city. This is the most important military movement that has been made since the army entered the Valley, and appears to have been occasioned is the following way. When Bulloch, the Mayor of Provo, was arrested, and it became known that warrants were out for President Snow, and Bishop Johnson, Springville, and other prominent men in the Mormon organization, the excitement among the fanatical population of Provo arose at once to lever heat. The Mormon City Marshal informed Capt. Heth that it would be with the greatest diffi-culty he could prevent an outbreak; that he had put two hundred additional special policemen on duty, caused all the drinking-houses to be closed, and taken all other possible precautions; but that, in the state of feeling which then existed, any spark might cause an explosion. Capt. Heth's company does not number over sixty or seventy men, while Provo, styled by Gov. Cumming a "village," is the second city in point of size in the Territory, and counts its population by thousands. Capt. Heth felt confident, however, that what-ever turn affairs might take, he could, by taking possession of or occupying the Court- House build-ing, prevent a rescue of the prisoners in his custody, and hold out against the heathen, until assistance could reach him from Camp Floyd, to which point an express was at once dispatched. As soon as the state of affairs at Provo thus be-came known at Camp Floyd, it was very properly determined by Gen. Johnston to march at once such a force to this vicinity as would render any attempt at an outbreak utterly hopeless. The force detailed for this purpose consists of a bat-talion of five companies of the 7th Infantry, under Capt. Little, Lieut. Potts, Adjutant, and the follow-ing officers: Lieuts. Plympton, Evans, Plummer, Hancock and Stivers; a battalion of three com panies of the 10th Infantry, under Capt. Tracy, Lieut. Kearny, Adjutant; Lieut, Kelly, commander, Company A; Lieut. Forney, commander, Company F., and Lieut. Thompson, attached to Company H; a section of Phelps's Battery, under Lieut. Weed, and a detachment of 2d Dragoons, under Lieuts. Gordon and Livingston, the whole force under Brevet- Major G. R. Paul, 7th Infantry, with the following staff: Lieut. Brooks, 7th Regt., act-ing Assistant Adjutant-General, and also acting Assistant Quartermaster and Commissary of the column, and Assistant Surgeon John Moore. The force numbers about a thousand men, and its ap-proach toward the City of Provo operated like a charm—for all at once there came a great calm. The conciliatory policy initiated in this Territory by Gov. Cumming, and followed up by the Commissioners sent out by the President to patch up a peace with the Mormon Church militant, has proved to be a very gross blunder, which in poli-tics, as some sage philosopher has observed, is worse than a crime. The saintly assassins, in-stead of being soft-soaped and soft-sawdered, should have been smitten with the edge of the sword, for at this moment there is nothing that brings them to the little glimmering of reason they possess so promptly as the glitter of bright bayonets in the sun. Up to the present time, for the reasons stated in the remarks of Judge Cradlebaugh to the Grand Jury, on dismissing them, the Marshal has not been able to affect the arrest of President Snow Ristrop, Johnson, Durfee, Earl and others, for whom he has warrants, for being implicated in the murder of the Parrishes. A movement of two companies of Infantry and a company of Dragoons from our camp, to surround Springville in the night, has been in contemplation and may possibly lead to the capture by the Marshal of some of the guilty par-ties As Judge Cradlebaugh is causing such strenuous efforts to be made to effect the arrest of the parties accused of being implicated in the Parrish murder and other crimes, it is probable that he has in con-templation some mode of procedure that will result in giving the Court the cooperation of a jury of good and true men who will have a proper regard for the law of the land and the obligation of their oath. It has been surmised that this end may be attained by adjourning to Camp Floyd, exhausting the regular panel and summoning a jury of tiles-men. Camp Timpanogas is beautifully located on the Provo or Timpanogas River, about a mile and a half below the mouth of the Provo Canon, and four miles north of Provo. In front of our camp, to the east, and at a short distance, rises like a wall the precipitous side of the Wahsatch Mountains—brown, and bald, and bare, except where, new the summit, the rock-rooted and storm-defying pine, dwindled to a mere shrub, peers up through the snow. Sweeping away to the and south-west, the range terminates in the magnificent Mount Nebo, its snowy peak gleaming like frosted silver in the sun. To the north of us, its sheer sides towering toward the clouds, gapes the gorge from which gushes the Timpanogas, through whose clea, cool waters gleam the speckled sides of the swift-darting trout, said to be the finest in the world. To the east of the stream the country rises into two terrace-like formations, known in the lan-guage of the country as "benches." Upon the first or lower of these our camp is pitched, our white tents being visible from Provo, Springville, Spanish Fork and Payson, all lying in the valley which spreads out to the south of us, and around which reverberate the echoes of our morning and evening gun, proclaiming peace on earth to men of good will. PROVO, U. T., March 29, 1859. Durfee and Bartholomew, against whom war-rants were in the hands of the U. S. Marshal upon accusations of being concerned in the Parrish murder, delivered themselves up to Secretary of State Hartnett, in Salt Lake City, a few days ago, and are now in custody here under charge of Capt. Heth's company. They say that when they first learned that warrants were out against them they were advised to secrete themselves in a canon to the east of Springville, where they re-mained secreted for several days, when they were notified, some hours before Captain Heth, of Provo, was advised of it, that a force of about 1,000 men were about to move from Camp Floyd upon Provo, and they were "counseled" to proceed at once by a certain designated route to Salt Lake City, under the guidance of the man Earl, who bad been excused from service on the Grand Jury for being implicated in the Parrish murder. They were directed to keep along the foot of the mountains and avoid the main road, and they were directed to cross the Cottonwood Creek at a certain point where there was a very thick under growth For some reason or other, they feared that foul play was premeditated against them by their own people, and positively refused to cross the stream at the point indicated. Upon reaching the city, they were about being taken to some out-of-the-way place in the suburbs, when, as they were passing the Gentile store of Livingston & Rencard, they bolted in and claimed protection being mani-festly apprehensive that it was intended by the church authorities to put them out of the way, for some purpose or other. There is considerable probability that these men will turn State's evidence, when the whole enormity of the Parrish murder, in all of its details, will be brought to light. I send you a copy of a proclamation just put forth by Gov. Cumming. I have no time for com-ments at present. By Alfred Cumming, Governor of Utah Territory. A PROCLAMATION. Whereas, One company of United States Infantry, under the command of Capt. Heth, is now stationed around the Court-House at Provo, where the Hon. John Cradlebaugh is now holding Court, and eight ad-ditional companies of infantry, one of artillery, and one of cavalry, under Major Paul, are stationed in sight of the Court-House; and Whereas, The presence of soldiers has a tendency not only to terrify the inhabitants and disturb the peace of the Territory, but also to subvert the ends of justice, by causing the intimidation of witnesses and jurors; and Whereas, This movement of troops has been made without consultation with me, and, as I believe, is in opposition to both the letter and spirit of my instruc-tions; and Whereas, Gen. Johnston, commander of the military department of Utah, has refused my request that he would issue the necessary orders for the removal of the above-mentioned troops; now, therefore, I, Alfred Cumming, Governor of the Territory of Utah, do hereby publish this, my solemn protest, against this present military movement, and also against all movements of troops incompatible with the letter and spirit of the annexed extract from the in-structions received by me from Government for my guidance while Governor of the Territory of Utah. [L. S.] In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the Territory to be affixed. Done at Great Salt Lake City this 27th day of March, A. D. J859, and of the Independence of the United States the 83d. ALFRED CUMMING. By the Governor. JOHN HARTNETT, Secretary of State. Extract—(Governor Cumming's instructions), it is your duty to take care that the laws are faithfully exe-cuted, and to maintain the peace and good order of the Territory, and also to support by your power and authority the civil officers in the performance of their duties. If these officers, when thus engaged, are forcibly opposed, or have just reason to expect oppo-sition, they have a right to call such portion of the posse comitates to their aid as they may deem necessary. If circumstances should lead you to believe that the ordinary force at the disposal of such officers will be insufficient to overcome any resistance that may be reasonably anticipated, then you are authorized to call for such number of troops as the occasion may require, who will act as a posse comitates; and while thus employed they will be under the direction of the proper civil officer, arid act in conformity with the instructions you may give, as the Chief Ex-ecutive Magistrate of the Territory. Affidavit of William Sloan. I, William Sloan, do solemnly swear that I was at the store of Levi Stewart, in this town of Provo, on this the morning of the 29th of March, 1859, when and where I heard Hosea Stout, esq., read to a crowd of between thirty and fifty persons the procla-mation of Gov. Cumming, dated the 27th of March, 1859, and immediately after said reading, I heard several persons in-quire of said Hosea Stout, whether any call was made on the Nauvoo Legion by Gov. Cumming to expel the troops, or words to that effect, now stationed in Provo and on the Provo Bench. Every one seemed in a high state of excitement, signs were in-terchanged, and many private consultations held, and many per-sons called out of the store-room to whom words were whispered, whereupon they left the store; and the impression made upon my mind was that the effect of said proclamation, from what I saw and heard, had been to induce a threatening attitude upon the part of the citizens to the troops stationed as indicated. [Signed] WM. SLOAN. Subscribed and sworn to before me, this 29th March, 1859. [Signed], CHARLES E. SINCLAIR, Associate Justice Supreme Court, Utah Territory. Affidavit of Janet Gammell. Territory of Utah, Utah County, ss.—l, James Gammell, do solemnly swear that I have mingled to-day, the 29th day of March, 1859, generally among the citizens of Provo City, after the publi-cation of the proclamation of Gov. Cumming, dated 27th of March, 1859, and have heard numerous expressions thereon from the people. That, in my judgment, the effect of that proclamation upon the minds of the citizens has been to exasperate them against the United States troops now stationed in and near this city still more than they have been, and has tended to disturb the public peace and tranquillity. That numerous persons have ap-plied to me for the purchase of powder and lead, saying that they expected the militia of the Territory to be called out by Gov. Cumming for the purpose of attacking the United States troops, and driving them from their present position in and near this city. I am an Indian trader, and have a considerable quantity of powder and lead and other Indian goods, and have refused their offers of purchase. I believe, from the present excited condition of the public mind growing out of said proclamation, that a decidedly threatening attitude exists in the purposes of this city and adjacent settlements toward the before- mentioned detachments of United States troops. [Signed] JAMES GAMMELL. Subscribed and sworn to before me, this 29th day of March, 1859). CHARLES E. SINCLAIR, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, Utah Territory. We, Albert Parrish, Henry Higgins, James O'Bannton, Leonard Phillips, Orren Parrish and James Gammell, do solemnly swear that we are, and have been for several years past, residents of the Territory of Utah; that we were summoned to appear as witnesses before the United States District Court for the Second Judicial District of said Territory, which convened at the City of Provo on the 8th of March, 1859; that we possessed certain knowledge of various crimes, which had been in the past two or three years committed in said district, on account of which said knowledge we had been summoned; that on account of the participation in or sanction afterward of the said crimes by the community in which said crimes were committed, emanat-ing, as we believe, from the authorities of the Mormon Church, we considered our lives and property in eminent peril from the Mormon community should we appear and testify to the facts within our knowledge, unless a portion of the United States troops should be, as they have been, stationed in the Town of Provo, near enough to the court- room to guarantee safety; and that from the Mormon community we have received threats and intimidation in case we should divulge the facts concerning said crimes; and which threats we believe would have been carried into execution but for the timely aid afforded by the Commanding Genera! in stationing troops now in and near this city; and further, we believe our lives to be ill danger henceforward without military protection from United States troops.

SINCLAIR, Associate Justice Supreme Court. INTERESTING CORRESPONDENCE. PROVO, March 11, 1859. To the Hon. Judge CRADLEBAUGH, Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, ex-officio Judge of the Second Judicial District, Utah Territory. DEAR SIR: The Mayor and City Council of Provo beg leave to respectfully represent that, whereas, the City Council have received petitions from the various wards of the city against the military occupation of the Seminary and vicinity by the United States troops to the annoyance of the citizens of the city, and intim-idation of persons having business with the District Court in session in the Seminary, and also rendering it exceedingly difficult for the civil officers, and expen-sive, to preserve the peace between the unruly por-tions of the citizens and the soldiers, some unpleasant circumstances having already occurred, and that they regard it as a direct interference with the municipal regulations of American citizens under these circum-stances, you will see the impropriety of their longer continuing in their present position, and we respect-fully request that they be removed beyond the limits of this city. By order of the City Council, J. LATHAM, City Recorder. B. R. BULLOCK. PROVO, March 12, 1859. GENTLEMEN: Your letter of the 11th inst. has just been received. In reply to it I take occasion to say that the movement of a company of infantry to this city, and their temporary location here, was well con-sidered before it was determined upon. It was a mat-ter of necessity. There were a number of prisoners to be tried before my Court. Neither the Territory nor the city afforded a jail or other place of confinement for them. No manner of provision has ever been made for their support and sustenance, either by the Terri-tory or your city. To secure those prisoners and to maintain them I owe both to my office and to them. I have adopted the only means left me of ac-complishing those objects. The military company, kindly furnished by the commnading General, both se-cure and support these prisoners. That this small force should be near the Court-House, or the building used as such, is not only a matter of convenience but of necessity to the Court. This I can say, however, that so soon as I can dispense with their most useful services I shall do so. You speak of their being here "to the annoyance of" of the citizens of the city, and intimidation of those "persons having business with the District Court." When, where, or in what manner these soldiers have annoyed or interfered with the citizens of Provo, I challenge you to show. A more quiet, orderly set of men I never saw. They have deported themselves with propriety and decorum truly remarkable. As to your remark about intimidation, allow me to say that good American citizens have no cause to fear American troops. I am, gentlemen, your obedient servant, JOHN CRADLEBAUGH. PROVO, March 20,1859. Capt. HERNY HETH—Dear Sir: You politely pro-posed to address me a note this morning on the subject of certain papers recently placed in your bauds. If it is entirely convenient, I would be pleased to receive the note referred to. Very respectfully, A. CUMMING. HENRY HETT, Capt. 10th Inf., U. S. A. CAMP RIDGELY, PROVO CITY, March 20, 1859. GOVERNOR: Out of respect to your official position, I gave last night to your Excellency certain official documents for perusal which I had a short time before received from the Headquarters of the Army of Utah. You requested me to furnish you with a copy of those papers. Your Excellency, I am convinced, will readi-ly sec the military impropriety of a subaltern furnish-ing copies of his orders, or making such orders public, without proper authority. If there is an impropriety in my furnishing you copies of these papers, I feel satisfied it will give the General Command very great pleasure to furnish your Excellency with copies of the same. With great respect, I am your Excellency's obedient servant, HENRY HETH, Captain of 10th Infantry, U. S. A. His Excellency, A. CUMMING, Governor of Utah. CAMP RIDGELY, PROVO, March 27, 1859. To the Mayor and Common Council of Provo City. Last night, between 7 and 8 o'clock, a party of evil-disposed persons threw stones at one of my sentinels, when in the quiet discharge of his duty, and came near injuring him. Should this be repeated I will regret the consequence that may ensue. I am, very respectfully, your obedient servant, HENRY HETH, Capt. 10th Infantry. JUDGE CRADLEBAUGH'S ADDRESS TO THE GRAND JURY AT PROVO, BEFORE DIS-MISSING THEM FROM FURTHER ATTEND-ANCE. This day makes two weeks from the time you were impanneled. At that time the Court was very particu-lar to impress upon your minds the fact that it was desirable to expedite business as speedily as possible. The Court took occasion to call your attention to the difficulty under which we bad to labor. It told you of the condition of the legislation; it told you of the fact that the Legislature had not provided proper means to aid the Court in bringing criminals to punishment; it told you that, aside from that, the legislation was of such a character as to embarrass the Court in the dis- charge of its duties; and that they had given criminal jurisdiction to Courts of their own creation, which, by the Organic Act, can exercise no such jurisdiction. They had sought to throw the punishment of crimes into such tribunals. The Court also called your attention to the fact that there had been, in connection with this legislation, an attempt by persons within the Territory to bring the United States Courts into disrepute with this people. It particularly called your attention to the fact that Brigham Young, the late Executive of the Territory, at the time when lie was a sworn officer of the Govern-ment—sworn to see that the laws were executed—had taken occasion to denounce the Courts as vile and cor-rupt; also, that he had taken occasion to denounce all attorneys and jurors of the Court, and that this was done to prevent the proper and due administration of justice in the Territory. The Court felt it its duty to repel such slanders; that it owed it to the position it occupied, and to the members of the bar who were looked upon as honora-ble men; and from its association with them, it felt it to be its duty to repel such slanders, let them come from what source they might. This was done for the purpose of showing the difficulties that you and the Court labor under in bringing criminals to justice. Aside from this the Court took the unusual course of calling your attention to particular crimes; the horri-ble massacre at the Mountain Meadows; it told you of the murder of young Jones and his mother, and of pulling their house down over them, and making that their tomb; it told you of the murder of the Parrishes, and Potter, and Forbes, almost within sight of this Court-House. It took occasion to call names, for the purpose of calling your particular attention to those crimes. The fact that they had been committed is notorious. The Court has bad occasion to issue bench warrants to arrest persons connected with the Parrish murder; has had them brought before it, and examined. The testimony presents an unparalleled condition of affairs. It seems that the whole community were engaged in committing that crime. Facts go to show it. There seems to be a combined effort on the part of the com- munity to screen the murderers from the punishment due them for the crime they have committed. I might call your attention to the fact that when officers seek to arrest persons accused of crimes, they are not able to do so; the parties are screened and secreted by the community. Scarcely have the officers arrived in-eight of the town of Springville before a trumpet was sounded from the wall around the town. This, no doubt, was for the purpose of giving the alarm. The officers were there to make arrests. The officers leave the town, and in a short time a trumpet sounds again from the wall for the purpose of announc-ing that the danger was over. Witnesses are screened, others are intimidated by persons in that community. An officer of this Court goes to Springville, meets the bishop of the town, asks him for a certain man for whom he has a writ, he having understood that the man was a scribe in his office. He (the bishop) tells him that he has gone to Camp Floyd; while the fact is, the person the officer desires to find is at the time in sight in the street. We have here a bishop lying to prevent the service of the process of this Court, and aiding in preventing criminals being brought to punishment. Such are the attempts made to prevent the adminis-tration of justice in the courts. Officers are prevented from making arrests. They are thwarted upon all points when they seek to arrest those persons who should be brought to punishment. Such acts arid conduct go to show that the commu-nity there do not desire to have criminals punished; it shows that the Parrishes and Potter were murdered by counsel; that it was done by authority; the testi-mony goes to show that the persons engaged in com-mitting these murders are officers in that community, policemen, and that they have since been promoted for committing these hellish crimes. At the commencement of this term of Court, these persons were to be seen elbowing about the streets with the bishops and other dignitaries, but now they are not to be found. I say all these facts go to show that these offenses were commited by officers in that town, and that there is a determination to cover up and secrete the offenders. You have had sufficient time to examine those cases: more than two days ago you had all the testimony be-fore you on the Parrish case, and from some cause you refuse to do anything. Your duty is to find bills when there is sufficient tes-timony to satisfy you of the probability of the party's guilt. The Court has been patient with you. It has given you time. It has endeavored to be patient that you might have ample opportunity to do your duty. The Court has no desire but to do its duty; to punish offenders and enforce the law. It can have no other purpose or motive. If it is the desire of this commu-nity that persons guilty of crimes shall be screened, and that high, notorious crimes shall be covered up, it will have to be done without the aid of this Court. Should my Government desire such things, they must send some other person than the one who now presides in this judicial district to accomplish such purpose. The Court cares not what position persons hold either civil or ecclesiastic; if they are guilty of crimes it will use its authority to bring offenders to justice. By legislation we have no jails, no means to support prisoners, no means of paying witnesses or jurors or other officers of this Court. It would seem the whole legislation of this Territory was to prevent the due ad-ministration of justice. It was these considerations that induced the Court to desire you to expedite the duties devolved upon you. The Court feels that it has discharged its duty; it has furnished you every facility for discharging yours. Still you make no report; to continue you longer in service would be wrong, the public interest would be neither promoted nor benefitted by it. You are, there-fore, discharged from further service. The Court will think of the propriety of veniring another Grand Jury. For some service upon Territorial business, the Clerk will issue you his certificates. For the time you were engaged in United States business the Marshal will pay you. If it is expected that this Court is to be used by this community as a means of protecting it against the pecadilloes of Gentiles and Indians, unless this com- munity will punish its own murderers, such expecta-tions will not be realized. It will not be used for such purpose. When this people come to their reason and manifest a disposition to punish their own high offenders, it will then be time to enforce the law also for their protect-tion. If this Court, can not bring you to a sense of your duty, it can at least turn the savages in custody loose upon you.

Youth of all ages participate in Conservancy-funded programs designed to build the skills and experience needed to pursue their dreams for the future. From young children getting their Junior Ranger Badge during a day visit, to high school students embarking on their first multi-day backpacking trip, these programs make it possible for youth to experience nature while learning environmental stewardship and personal development skills.
Junior Rangers
By completing ranger-led nature walks, finishing workbooks, and engaging in hands-on activities, kids can earn their Junior Ranger Badge. This program encourages a love of the outdoors, national parks, and a healthy lifestyle from an early age.
Education and Leadership
Students are paired with college mentors through a range of academic and physical activities designed to improve literacy and leadership skills in the Adventure Risk Challenge (ARC) program. Thanks to Conservancy funding, in 2011 ARC reached almost 80 students in Yosemite who came away with valuable leadership, environmental stewardship and community building skills that will help them achieve their goals and dreams for the future.
Read poems from ARC participants.
Career Building
Through WildLink, underserved high school aged youth are provided that crucial first introduction to Yosemite and the opportunity to consider careers in the park service by shadowing park rangers and participating in workshops led by Conservancy naturalists.
For older students, the Yosemite Leadership Program (YLP) provides opportunities for University of California, Merced undergraduates to work alongside park staff, gaining practical, field-based experience. The two-year internship culminates in a symposium held in Yosemite Valley where students present their projects to the visiting public and park managers.
Restoration and Conservation
The Youth Conservation Corps (YCC), provides youth ages 15-18 the opportunity to spend eight weeks living in the park where they restore campgrounds, install bear-proof lockers, remove invasive plants, and restore backcountry trails. Along the way, participants gain invaluable environmental and life skills that mark the beginning of a life-long commitment to protecting natural places.
As the oldest and largest state conservation corp program in the country, the California Conservation Corps (CCC) has been training young adults (ages 18-25) in trail restoration while developing life skills in Yosemite since 1976. In addition to comprehensive training in dry-stone masonry techniques, youth also learn about ecology, resource management, sustainability, wilderness survival training and career development.
The Student Conservation Association (SCA) provides college interns the opportunity to live and work in Yosemite during a 35 day wilderness program where crews remove invasive plants, restore abandoned or "social" trails and remove inappropriate campsites. SCA crews generally survey over 15 square miles (9,600 acres), walking over 40 miles in about 30 days. Thanks to Conservancy funding, students come away with self-confidence and skills for the future.

Staten Island husband taken into custody following domestic killing: Police
A Staten Island man is under arrest for allegedly beating his wife to death, police said.
By yesterday evening, officials had not formally charged Gregory Surinaga, 45, who is accused of killing Jodi Surinaga, 42, earlier in the day in a jealous rage.
The couple had been fighting over an alleged infidelity, the Staten Island Advance reported. After trying to choke his wife, Surinaga allegedly beat her on the head with a baseball bat, police said.
The couple's teenage sons called 911 and first responders found their dad allegedly trying to hang himself. They were able to stop him from committing suicide but pronounced Jodi Surinaga dead at the family's Beechwood Place home, police said.
The NYPD declined to comment on reports that the suspect confessed.
The couple had had marital problems over the last few months and publicly argued, according to published reports.
