The Hawkins case, la.ely decided
in Utah places the husband at the

gamy. The first Mrs. Hawkins
prosecuted her husband for marry

1t is a beautiful concern to
be interesting itself so greatly in be-
half of religion and morality. The

'eloped the mining wealth of an un-
Known country. The Puritan Cen
lies arc after the fruits of Mormon
and enterprise. If women

'ovcrnment to drive out the women

spirit of New England,
