THE DECLINING WITNESS.
The Grand Jury Instructed TO In
quIre Into the validity OF the
Divorce.

The matter Of the refusal Of Kate
Smith Bassett to testify against her hus.
band before the Grand Jury was taken
up for consideration by Judge Zane in the
District Court this morning.
Mr.. Rawlins, who appeared for the
witness Mrs. Bassett, asked that she be
sworn on her roir dire for the purpose Of
establishing the fact that she is the legal
wife Of the defendant.
Mr.. Varian objected to this, stating
that it had already been shown that the
defendant had married one Sarah Will
liams previous to his marriage to Kate
Smith, and that the said Sarah Williams
is still living. What the Grand Jury
wanted to establish was that Kate Smith
had gone through marriage ceremony
with the defendant previous to the one
admitted by the witness, and Mr. Varian
claimed for the inquisitors the right to
establish this fact.
Mr. Rawlins replied that by the evil
dence previously adduced it was shown
that the witness was married to the de-
PENDANT in 1886, and as they intended
proving that previous to that time the
defendant had been divorced from his
first wife this marriage would make the
witness his legal wife whether she had or
had not been previously married to him
or lived with him in the polygamous
relation. lie said that, therefore, the
witness could not, under the law, be
forced to testify against her husband,
because she is only competent in a case
where he has committed crime against
her, and it was evident from the testi-
mony that, ii there had been any unlaw-
full cohabitation previous to this marriage
which made Kate Smith the legal wife,
the crime was against the first wife,
Sarah Williams, and not against the
witness.
bThe Judge said that if the parties de-
sired he could pass upon the question of
the competency OF the legal wife as a
witness, but, as neither side seemed to
care about this, he instructed the Grand
Jury to retire again and look into the
matter OF the divorce, and to determine
whether or not such decree had been
granted, and if it had been, to make all
the investigations in their power which
would tend to prove or disprove its va
lidity.

SANITY ASSlNINITY.
Gentle Boys and Mormon Girls
Round Dancing.

The Mormon Church has started thus
early in the season to open fire with full
force against the practice OF round dane
ing among the young Saints and Saint
esses.
\ few Sundays ago, Joseph f. Taylor,
the cohabitive outlaw, made his appear
ance in the Sugar House ward meeting
place and gave the young Saintesses
fearful drubbing on keeping company
with Gentle youths. 1t was pretty hard
for the girls to take such raking from
this scapegrace, but it was infinitely
worse on the Gentle youth in general.
Those who have seen Sugar House girl
will need no further exploration. The
inspired Joseph also hammered away at
the evils OF round dancing, OF which he
appeared to know great deal.
But this is not the saddest part OF the
war on round dancing. 1t is no more
than is naturally expected of the fossil
ferrous stake presidents. A much worse
indication is seen in the fact that several
OF the most youthful youths of
Zion have been blutfed into rails
ing their voices against it. Sun
day before last Il STRIPPING saintlet
of eighteen summers and two or three
winters-a saintlet who danced round
dances all last winter-a saintlet who is
no more capable OF forming an idea for
himself than witness in cohab case is
Of telling the truth-this little saint
let was made the photograph
through which an anti-round-dancing
sermon was squeaked at the congregation,
The youth did not think there was "much
harm" in the practice ii there was not
too much "hugging" done, and closed his
speech by saying that he would promise
to quit dancing round dances ii the
church would not allow them to 90 on.
lie was followed by another lad little
older in years but quite as young in eX
perience; and it is thus that the saints
are taught the Lords wishes. The
depth of depravity to which boy OF
eighteen must descend in order to inject
ideas OF morality or immortality into the
innocent pleasure OF dancing, is some
thing more alarming than a thousand
such evils as those OF which these kidlets
preach.
There is one good thing in the Church's
sitting down upon this sort OF enjoyment,
it will bring lots of the young people to
their senses and if it comes to the worst
the old saints will find that there are Il
few young Mormons who won't bluff for
q cent.

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.
Old Man Bailey Twice Tries 10
Hang Himself I'm Jail.

Old George Bailey, who has Tor years
past been an almost constant inmate oil
the city Jail, was taken in drunk shortly
before 10 o'clock this morning, and u
few moments later made an almost sue
cessful attempt to "coil" off this mortal
shuttle. -.
Bailey had been in Jail only about
twenty minutes when "cop" who went
to the Jail to take him into court found
him hanging from the end of little rope
which was attacked to the top OF the
window The "cop" cut the rope and it
was found that he, was pretty far gone,
and had he been left hanging a
few moments more it is likely that he
would have been "goner." The pc,
liceman left the jail and before he had
time to return again the old man was
once more dangling in the air. This tint,
some of the other prisoners intertered
and brought him to the floor.
How he got the rope is something
which no one seems able to explain, but
it is supposed that he took it with him
into the fail. The old fellow has EN-
loved life in its fullness and it is sad in
deed that he should thus early grow
tired of it.

is prevalent in the selection OF school

factors; it's all on the principle OF "Me
and my wife, John and his wife, us four,
and no more" In Weber county alone
there are five members OF one family en-
gagged at the public school crib. As to
their ability to teach, it is sufficient to
say that a little boy from the Sacred

THE BOOK OF MORMON.
Lectures ut the JOsephite Chapel by
Member of the ReOrgan-
lied Mission.

ED. DEMOCRAT: As much as has been
said in the religious and political arena
as to the Divinity OF the Book OF Mormon
and the mission OF Joseph Smith, we
crave little space in your paper. 1t is
believed by many that Joseph Smith and
the teachings OF the Book OF Mormon are
largely responsible for all the errors and
wrongs that have been committed
whether real or imaginary under the
guise of Mormonism. To disabuse the
minds OF some, if possible, we wish to be
heard in our own defense. We believe
every theory should be tested on its own
merits. 1t would be just as consistent to
charge the Lord Jesus and the New Tes-
lament teachings as being responsible
for all the wrongs that have
been committed in the name of
the Christian religion rs TO thus charge
the former Some OF the most revolving
tortures have been inflicted on supposed
heretics and those who opposed the So
called Christian religion, and to-day such
a charge would he considered by all OF
the Christian world as being unjust and
unwarranted And so we believe in
regard to Joseph Smith and the Book OF
Mormon. Claiming as we do to represent
the true faith, we shall begin series OF
lectures in the Josephite Chapel, on Sec
ond South street, next Monday night at
1880, first reviewing the lectures OF Rev,
VI. T. Lamb against the Book OF Mormon,
and then producing evidence in favor Of
the book. ."he lectures will continue
during the week, by Elder j. G. Clapp,
oil Montana. All are cordially invited to
attend, and especially clergymen.
Respectfully, r. j. ANTmoNl.
