by the horns, with the determination to re-
tire Blaine beyond all doubt aud have his
pa nominated at Minneapolis. In New
York day or two ago he told World re-
porter that Mr.. Blaine was a decrepit old
imbecile, and could hardly write his own
name. Mr.. Blaine's condition" he said,
ais such that all talk of his nomination
even Of he should become candidate, is out
of the question. He is completely broken
down. both mentally and physically. He
cannot remember the simplest things, and
all Of the work of the state department has
been on my fathers shoulders for over two
years 1t is simply absurd to talk of nomi-
mating Mr.. Blaine. He can scarcely more
than sign his name to documents requiring
his signature. and rarely, if ever. reads any
of them. He is almost as helpless as a

vigorous argument before one OF the COM

school in the United States take part in the
celebration. following out an "official pro-
gramme' prepared by the executive COM

OMAHA, May l0.--Bishop Fitzgerald
presided at today's session Of the
Methodist Conference. II seems that
the prevailing opinion Ia that no bishop
will be elected at this session. The
committee on cpiscopacy was not
ready TO report this morning on ac-
count OF the fact that tho colored
brethren are working hard TO secure
the election Of n colored bishop. The
report will probably bs delayed I'll
Thursday or Friday.
There Ia a hot contest for the editor.
ship OF the Adrocats at ~. Louis be-
tween pr. Marsden, ~. Louis; DR..
Bourman Young, Kansas city, snd
DIR. Creighton, OF Nebraska.
The order OF the dry was the report
OF the committee on constitution. After
some rather sharp debate on the OK.
podiency OF calling ON the bishops to
address the conference, II was decided
TO ask Bishop Merrill, the chairman Of
the committee ON constitution, TO tx.
plain the changes; hut before this was
proceeded with the rules were suspend-
ed, and the report Of the Committee on
the Worlds Fair was called for. The
report declared the exposition n mcri.
tori1us Undertaking; that the church
rcJoiced In the prospect OF IL success,
but declared that 1t should be closed on
Sunday; that this lisa Christian nation,
and II would b. dying Ia the face Of
Providence to open the gates on the
Lords day. The committee favored
n 100000 appropriation, but only
with the proviso that the gates bo closed
on Sunday, and recommended that a
telegram bearing the sentiments Of the
report be sent to the President and
Congress. After some debate the pre-.
amble and resolutions were endorsed,
but recommended for revision, and the
committee was instructed 10 send .
telegram to Washington approving the
object Of tho Fair, hut protesting
against the opening Of Il on Sunday.
The report Of the committee ON con.
stitution was then taken up.
DR.. Nicely then took the door TO ex-
plain the meaning OF the constitution.
He gave the history OF that document
since It's adoption IN 1908 with subse.
quent amendments. lie hoped tho
conference would decide once for all,
which parts OF tho church government
were constitution and which were
simply restrictive rules. The defiul.
tiOn IL necessary 10 decide what could
and could not DO changed by the con.
ference without the concurrent action
OF the annual conference.
DR.. Little said the conference should
proceed very cautiously. The admis.
sion Of laymen, for instance, was n
question never submitted to annual
conferences.
II the general conference had not
the power TO make changes la the
constitution without the consent Of the
annual conference, the admission Of
laymen IN 1872 was unconstitutional
and laymen hal no right In the con.
ference. DIR. Buckley declared the
right OF the lRymen secure, even II
they were not admitted by ~ constitu.
lIonal amendment; restrictive rules
guaranteed them seats ia the confer
enCe.
After further discussion, Mr.. Fields
Of Philadelphia moved that the whole
matter OF changes In the constitution
be postponed TO the neNt.general con.
florence. Lost.
The explanation by Bishop Merrill
was postponed, owing 10 the lateness
OF the hour until tomorrow.

Teen obialned from those or

II II can ever be duplicated.
The ruins of that section are 20 well
protected by the overhanging cliffs
that no moisture ever reaches them,
aud we were thus enabled 10 secure
class Of relics that cannot be obtained
from the ruins IN the valleys.
In the collection are ten mummiiied
skeletons and n large number Of skulls
representing two distinct races. There
are many samples " human hair,
mummined hands and feet, etc. Also
very fine showing OF textile fabrics,
pottery, stone, bore and wooden i'm.
plements, paints, sandals, baskets,
pipes, seeds, samples OIL. tanning ami
miscellaneous articles OF many kinds.
| made n collection from the ruins 10
bc found In this state, and sold the
same to the Historical society VI the
State. | consider this collection that
have found Ia Utah ~ much larger
aud more complete In every respect.
AS 10 the gcnuineness Of these relies
refer you 10 Mr.. II. w. Ayrcs ot this
place. Mr.. Ayres will be IN charge OF
the archaeological exhibit to be made
by this state Ut the Worlds Fair at
Chicago. also refer you 10 any bust.
ness man OF this city who has examined
the relics.
Should tho Territory Of Utah desire
