the Arguments was that the President Of

mi i.polygamy law was false to his oath
Of Office. as also the supreme Court
Judges who pronounced the law uncon-
s~titutioual. In abridging the religious
liberty" Of the Saints to build up
harems, the Government had measured

perish. The nations cup was nearly

IT Is . singular fact that Aftssn Of
the ladies connected with the present

American girls whose beauty and
diplomacy captured distinguished hus-
bands. Among the number are wives
Of the French. Italian. GuatsmAlan and

lesser rank. including Mrs. Yuns Wing.
Of the Chinese Legation. who was a
Miss Bartlett. Of Connecticut. In the
Diplomatic Corps Of Europe there are
also several American ladies. such
o. the wife Of the Italian Minister to the

women have u peculiar penehant for
