A TALENTED WOMAN
Mrs. G. S. Kinney Wins a Liter
airy Prize.
She Writes the Article for ''once Week" on
WOman's Work, as Seen in
Her Home.

A woman who never leaves her freside,
who bears upon her face the stamp of
'home," a womanly woman, and yet one
who wrests from hundreds of contestants
the honor of being greater than they in the
treatment of woman's works, is genius.
Such a woman is Mrs. G. S. Kinney,
who has just had accorded TO her by once
Week the proud distinction OF having
written the best thesis upon
woman's work, paper that was
stamped throughout with that talent for
work, for research, and careful weighing
of facts that marks genius. Mrs. Kinney
is Salt Lake woman only by adoption, but
here lie all of her own and her husbands
interests. She lives in a plainly artistic
mother of one little baby boy
"a heart full and house full''-
in her own words, but still leaving room
for longing for more. Mr.. Kinney is an
attorney here and was joined by his gifted
wife as such about two years ago. 1t was
but reunion after all, for husband and
wife were classmates at college, where
what Mrs. Kinney merely describes as the
! beginning OF the end occurred.
Mrs. Kinney is tail above the average of
her sex, and is saved from stateliness by a
winning smile. There is an air of modest
simplicity about her and motherly sweet
ness. The woman and the worker show
out in all she does and says. Her little
home is plainly, but prettily finished, fin
ished in the way that suggests that each
ornament has some history, some in
trinslc value. The charm that lies in
the furnishing, to Mrs. Kinney's mind,
was told in the sympathetic expression OF

She has always taken the greatest delight
in literary work, though her preten
sions have hitherto been confined
to efforts less elaborate than the com
pilst n of a statistical treatise such as she
has ftten for Once Week on the work:
of ner own sex. 1t was labor of love
with Mrs. Kinney, the sweetest sort o.
love, bred at home and not in woman's sui
frage meetings or literary societies, which
she never attends. She Is ambitious of be-
future, but not SO much so as to have giveI
herself up entirely to tia

Mrs. Kinney is firm believer in here

ancestors, modified by environment. TIL

Wightman Finds Hasty crawl of His Wife's
Like Message From the Dead.

The funeral of Mrs. Fife Wightman,
who suicided last Thursday. will take place
today, at 2 p m, from her late residence,
IS East Seventh South. The services
will be conducted by the Rev. Mr.. Lane, of
ST. Pauls.
Mrs. Wightman's remains were viewed
by great many people yesterday, whose
interest in her sad and unaccountable fate
took them to the coroner's to view the body
of the woman whose life contained some
dark secret that caused her to take 1t so
rashiy with her own hands.
Not ray of light has yet been thrown
upon the cause, but last night, searching
among her effects, her husband, w. b.
Wightman, found letter she had left,
showing that she had fully made up her
mind to the rash deed. 1t was poor,
piteous little letter, not suggestion of the
cause in it, not even word of love, or an
appeal for help, just going to show that the
gordian knot was about to be snapped and
that already the shadows of death had fall
len upon her.
The letter was hastily scrawled all over
the paper, and not even her name
signed to it. 1t was written

court handed down to-day decision in the
quo warrsnto proceedings of D. <. Horton
and others against E. Wilder and others.
The parties to the suit are stockholders in
the San Diego Land company, incorporated

ness in California. The decision upholds
the Kansas law, providing that at least
three directors Of every company incorpor-
ated under the laws of Kansas shall be citi-
zens of Kansas. Two factions were con-
tending for control of the corporation and
the ballot for directors resulted in the
election of eleven nom resident directors.
The chairman declared three residents of
Kansas elected, Notwithstanding the vote,
and eight non-residents who had been
elected but forced to give way under the
decision of the chairman, instituted pro-
ceedings, but the court held they were not
entitled to relief under the laws. The cap

springer's Condltion Stir Critical.

WASHINGTON, March 5.-The condition Of
Congressman Springer still continues ia
vorable, although there is but little visible
Improvement this morning. The patient is
still very much FRUSTRATED and the greatest
care Is being exercised to prevent re-
lapse. DR.. Vincent, of Sprinfeld, Ill,
Springer's family physician. arrived this
morning and was Immediately called in
consultation with other physicians. AT
the conclusion of the consultation and after
examination of the patient, DR.. Vincent
said 1.-The coddition of Springer is very
much improved and while l might say he
is practically out of danger, yet as mat
ter of fact man is not out of danger in a
case of this kind until he has passed the
stage where relapse is possible. 1t will
probably be several days before Springer
passes that point. He is so completely
FRUSTRATED now very little imprudence or
slight mistake would cause relapse which
might prove fatal"
During the afternoon Springer slept
quietly and tonight DR.. Vincent reports
his condition unchanged. His nervous
cough is less violent and disposition to
sleep peacefully more apparent than earlier
in the day. The physician thinks his pa
tient is, if anything, better than this morn
ing though the case is still critical and will
be. until all danger of relapse is passed.

Cleveland Opposed to the Hill Methods.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch I
BUFFALO, March Sit is asserted by
Francis d. Locke, personal friend of
Grover Cleveland, that Mr.. Cleveland ex-
presses himself as unalterably opposed to
the methods employed by the Hill faction
in this state, and while he is careful not to
express his feelings to anyone connected
with the press, he does not hesitate to de-
nounce the February convention in no un-
certain language to his intimate friends.
Mr.. Locke said tonight the ex-President
not long ago said to him he was in thorough
sympathy with the protesting May con
vontion which Is to be held in Syracuse.
and asserted that in his opinion it was the
only way in which the Democrats of the
state of New York could properly manifest
their opposition to the methods employed
by Hills friends aud their convention.
Regarding the position of Mr.. Cleveland
on the presidential question Mr.. Locke
said that Mr.. Cleveland was not a candi-

NnhIe Critinises Ranm

WASHINGTON, March 5.-Secretary No
bic to-day sent letter to Pension Com
missioner Raum criticising the latter for
giving precedence to pensions called up by
mem bers of Congress. The secretary said
that such action obviously works great in
Justice to earlier claims, which are thus
passed over and deferred. and was very
dangerous, as was feared at the time the
completed files system was adopted, and
against which his order of September %,
$780, was aimed. The evil arises not from
allowing examination of the status Of
cases, but in permitting the examiner to
approve cases out of their order when thus
called up. Cases brought out for exam
ination must hereafter, even If completed
be returned to the former case.
The President and party returned to
Washington this evening. Secretary
Blaine is considerably improved tonight
and there is every reason to suppose he
will be all right in few days. He is still

Prof EniOtt's Opinion on the Seal Question

NEW York, March 5.-A Herald Wash
ington man saw and asked Prof. Elliott a
recognized authority on the life and habits
of the seal, who has spent many seasons in
Behring sea as government agent investi-
eating the whole matter, to give a state
ment as to the effect of the English ulti-
matum. 1.-THE ruin and determination of
the fur seal is at hand unless the modus
vivendi is renewed. Poachers will kill
practically all the seals left on the islands
Shutting the pelagic feet out thirty miles
would not prevent sealers getting as good a
chance TO kill nursing seal mothers as
though the poachers were allowed to hunt
within three miles of the shore. One hun
dred and twenty vessels, manned by two
thousand men, next summer will destroy q
herd without going within fifty miles OF the
islands. The pups will starve and there
will not be enough seals left to develop a
herd of commercial value for twenty years.
Congress- Elliott continued, should as.
certain at once whether this proposition
of Salisbury is final or not. If it
is, bill should be passed Immediately
repeating the law preventing the killing OF
female seals on the islands. If Canadian
and American poachers are TO be allowed
to kill female seals within thirty miles OF
the islands, law-abiding Americans on the
islands ought to be allowed q chance TO get
their share. The poachers will pay the
government nothing, but for every sea-
killed on the islands the government gets q
tax of $40. This money should form fund
for the maintenance Of the unfortunate
natives of the seal islands, who are wholly
dependent upon this industry"

TEE SEAL TROUBLES
Salisbury's Attitude Causes Much
Disappointment.
BEHRING SEA is TO BE PoLlCIED
If the Modus YiYendi is not Renewed, Serious
Complications May Arise-0pinions
of an Expert

WASHINGTON, March Sit is quite clear
from inquiry at the capitol that with the
exception of few members of the House
and Senate committees on foreign rela-
lions, Senators and Representatives are in
q state of ignorance as to the present. con-
dition of negotiations between the United
States and Great Britain respecting the
seal fisheries. 1t is limited by some mem
bers that unless the British government
evinces disposition to act with fairness
in the matter OF the modus yivendi, the
treaty may never be sent to the Senate
by the President. While this deplor-
able contingency is not believed to be
near at hand, a few Congressman
informed as to the exact situation
express privately grave concern at the out
look, and fear if the treaty fails and the
contentious of the two nations relative to
the rights of their subjects in Behrlng sea
revert to the status they occupied ct the
beginning of negotiations several years
ago, very serious international complica-
tione may be expected. Discussion OF the
subject has the effect TO attract the at
tenJion not only of the general public but
also of enterprising vessel owners, and the
latter allured by the prospect OF large
profits, are making preparations for NOV
ing towards Behring sea in such numbers
as to warrant the belief unless the move
ment is promptly checked the seal rocker
les will be completely depopulated.
Such members Of the foreign relations
committee as are conversant with the sub
lect, are of the opinion that the United
States cannot permit this organized system
OF poaching to be resumed, and failing in
the effort to secure renewal Of the modus
vivendi, the government will proceed as
soon as the season opens to police the
waters of Behring sea with powerful aud
effective feet and seize all poaching vessels
regardless of nationality or the protests Of
interested nations. 1t is said by some
members of the committee this would really
be in accordance with established diplo
matte practice which permits action, while
its contentious are the subject of negotia
tions, to maintain its ground until con
clusion is reached, with the understanding
If the result of the negotiations or arbitra
tion is against 1t, the nation will be under
obligation to make good any wrong it maj

The Behring sea natter Becomes Serious

WASHINGTON, March 5.-The Behring sea
matter has assumed most serious phase
and public officials make no attempt to dis
guise their grave concern at the outcome.
1t was developed to-day that Lord Sails
bury's proposition with regard to the pres
emit season not only to open Behring sea
outside of the thirty mile zone from Priby-
loff islands to indiscriminate sealing, but to
limit the catch within that belt, including
of course the shores of the island. to 10000
seals. In the language of a prominent Of
fetal, "this proposition is wholly unfair,
arrogant and even insulting to this coun-
try"
1t is contended by experts that the open
ing of Behring sea for one season in the
manner suggested would result in the
speedy determination of the seal species
and there would be nothing left to arbi-
trate upon.
The news from British Columbia that
the sealing feet is making preparations for
unusually extensive operations this season
is confirmed 81 the state department. In
curry developed the fact that the number
so engaged last year, Notwithstanding
Behring sea was closed last year and
patrOlled by naval vessels of Great Britain
and the United States, was SO great the
gated nearly seventy thousand seals, and ii
is this fact that inspires the officials of this
government to the belief that the openin g
OF the sea 10 the extent proposed by Lord
Salisbury would inevitably result in total
destruction Of the industry before next
fall, possibly before the question at issue
could ever be submitted to arbitration. Ii
may be stated as q fact this government is
not at all disposed to allow this to be done
without making a vigorous and deter
mined effort to prevent it. Unless Sails
bury recedes from his present position anC
consents TO renewal of last years modus
vivendi restraining the catch of seals tC
such as are regarded as necessary for the
welfare Of the natives, it will be necessary
for this government TO undertake alone tht
protection of seals by the enforcement o.
the laws bearing On the subject. 1t j:
probable special meeting of the cabine
will be held Monday for the purpose of con
sidering the subject and deciding upor
action in case of Lord Salisbury's insist
ance on his last proposition.
