In the far west are typically very tall

about the ranches Of his great strength,

him his bcatiic name among his fel-
lows. FIRST met him at the Horse
Creek ranch, where one night late IN
autumn he stopped with his fellows.
They had come up from the south with
a herd OF beef cattle which were put
into one Of the corrals over night while
their cavalcadc was turned out into the
horse pasture.
Happy Jack was up next morning
earliest Of all, and, while the rest OF
the boys were going TO breakfast, he
had saddlcd his gray horse, vicious
creature, as 'sprcady and as active as
his master. and having led II 10 the

frosty, and Jack wore over his regula-

vcranda.

Everything that Happy Jack did or

INTENSE COLD.


Those Subjected TO II.
Extreme cold, as Is well known, ex-
erts benumbing influence upon the
mental faculties. Almost everyone who
has been exposed, for a longer or a
shorter period, 20 a very low tempera-
ture has noted a diminutiOn In viii
power, and often temporary weaken
ing OF the memory. Perhaps the
largest scale upon which this action has
ever been studied was during the re-
treat Of the French frr Moscow. The
troops suffered extrc " from hunger,
fatigue and cold the latter per-
hnps most OF all. / man physician
who accompanied a detachment Of his
countryncn has left an interesting ac-
count OF their trials during this retreat.
Trom an abstract OF this paper by DR..
Rose, IN the New York "Medicinische
Monatschrift," we find that ono OF tho
earliest symptoms referable 20 the cold
was loss OF memory. This was noted in
the strong as well as those who were
already suffering from the effects Of
the hardships TO which they had been
exposed. With the FIRST appearance Of
a moderately low temperature about
five degrees above zero Fahrenheit,
many OF the soldiers were found 70
have forgotten the names OF the most
ordinary things about them. rs well ms
those OF the articles of food for which
they were perishing. Many forgot
their own names and those OF thoir
comrades. Others showed pronounced
symptoms OF mental disturbance, and
not few became incurably insane, the
type OF their insanity resembling very
closely senilc dementia. The cold was
probably not alone responsible for
these effects, for zero temperature is
rather stimulating than paralyzing IN
its action upon tho well-fed and the
healthy. These men were half-staryed,
poorly clad worn out with long march
ing, many already weakened by dyson
tory and other diseases, and all men
tally depressed, as an army in defeat
always is 1t needed, therefore, no
very unusual degree OF cold 20 produce
the psychic effects observed under
other circumstances only as a conse-
quence Of exposure 10 an extreme low
temperature.

Cholera Believed to BE Entirely Sup
pressed at Honolulu.
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. H.-Following
are latest advices from Honolulu, under
date OF Octo ber 9TH, per steamship China,
which arrived to-day:
Cholera is believed to be entirely sup
pressed. A second case appeared at the
Insane Asylum on the evening of the I'd.
This was the third case in eighteen days.
The victim, an elderly white man named
" neeler, had drunk water from a taro
patch four days previous.
Most of the restrictions upon freight
and passengers TO the other islands Lave
been removed. The public schools have
been opened aud evening services are
again being held in the churches.
The Bennington has returned to La
haina. The Olympia is expected here
this week to coal up for her passage to
Japan.
On the morning of the 4th there was an
active hlibuster alarm. \ boat with
armed men was definitely reported at
/ a. NJ. as having landed two miles west
of the city. There was great activity of
the police, and at III A. VI. the tug Ellen
went n pursuit OF boat reported as seen
in the ofling. 1t is considered proba bio
that there WAS landing made by opium
smuggIerS. Prevailing OPINION derldes
the idea that any 1iiibusterers intend to
max an attempt here. Colonel Mclean
availed himself of the excitement 10 order
an impromptu rally of the volunteer
companies for moonlight drill. a bout
300 turned out IN good order and maneu-
vered all over the city.
The steamer China this morning posi-
lively refused to carry our mails. She
had 800 Chinese to land here. AS she is
from cholera ports the Board of Health
refused to permit them to land unless the
China would lake the mails. This
brought Captain Seabury to terms.

Bitter Fight Between the Mormon

French Bark Results in the Sinking

Twelve of Her Crev-Six Men Tor
ribly Burned By Hot, Molten Metal
at Frankstown, Pennsylvania,

SALT LAKE Utah, Oct. 14.-Counselors
George @. Cannon and Joseph +. Smith
of the Mormon Church last week de-
nounced Moses Thatcher and 3. II.
Roberts Democrats for entering political
contests without first consulting the
church. President Wilford Woodruff
to-day upheld his two subordinates, stat
ing that they were but following the rules
of the church, which prohibit its digni-
tares from engaging in other than ecclesi-
asticaI work.
The Democratic press condemns the
action of the counselors. while the Re-
publican press applauds the course
adopted by the church, which they claim
is opposed to the Democratic party. The
reprimanded candidates declare that
while subservient to the church in all
other matters, they will fight for political
liberty.
The opinion is general that if Thatcher
and Roberts can hold out against the
Mormon Church that powerful body will
be disrupted, and Utah can then enter
the Union tree and untrammeled. On
the other hand, should the church
triumph, it is claimed that the Demo-
cratic ticket would be Withdrawn, many
OF the prominent Mormon members OF
the party would secede and Statehood
would probably be defeated.
\ meeting of the State Dem mocrats was
held Tonight TO consider the question Of
reassem bling the State convention. The
committee later announced that but one
feeling prevails In regard TO taking action
OH the alleged interference OF the high
officials OF the Mormon Church in poiItl-
cal affairs, and that was that heroic meas
ures must be taken, and the question Of
political liberty Of the people of Utah,
irrespective of party, be settled once and
Tor all. 1t was decided TO recall the State
convention at an early date to consider
the proposition of Withdrawing the DEM
ocratic ticket and substituting therefor an
antl-Slatehood ticket, or taking some
other decisive step TO stop church inter-
ference in politics.
President Woodruff of the Mormon
Church and Joseph Smith. one of his chief
cOunse.ors, who, with George q. Cannon,
his other counselor, made the remarks
hich have caused all the trouble, are out
with manifestoes. Woodruff says there
was not, according to his recollection, one
word said about democrats, Repu ublicans
or Populisis. President Woodruff says:
II concede the right of every man,
woman and child on earth to enjoy their
religion, let that religion be what it may
for that is between themselves and their
Creator. SO l say with regard TO poll
tics"
Smith says: MY remarks made at the
priesthood meeting are not susceptible OF
the meaning which individuals in both
political parties have placed upon him.
l was speaking upon church discipline.
not upon politics at all"
Neither of these proclamations have
had the effect of allaying public alarm,
and the feeling is more bitter tonight
than ever.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. IA. j. Moulder,
uperintentendent of the San francisco
Public Schools, died at 1870 O'Clock this
morning at the family residence, Sl2 Bush
street. The immediate cause of his death
was pleuro-pneumonia, but Mr.. Moulder
had been sick about ten days. He had an
attack of heart failure last May, from
which he had never fully recovered.
Three weeks ago he contracted severe
cold which settled on his lungs and de-
veloped case of pleuro-pneumonia. Drs.
McNutt and Kerr attended him and sue
ceeded in conquering the lung trouble.
but the patient was left in a very feeble
condition. Three days ago he began to
sink and his life slowly ebbed away until
this morning. when the tnal summons
came.
Andrew Jackson Moulder was born in
Washington. d. c., March Z. 1925, and
was, therefore, 20 years of age. He was
graduated from Columbia College, III that
city, and his first work as an educa-
tor was tutor in the family of Robert l..
Raudolph-the Randolphs OF Virginia.
In the spring of 1880 he came to san
Francisco and soon Joined the miners III
various parts Of the State. During the days
OF the Vigilance Committee ne was one OF
the editorial writers OF the San Francisco
Heratd, which was killed by the N1gi-
lantes. In 1854 he was elected City Con-
troller and in 1896 he was elected State
superintendent OF Schools. He was re-
elected to that position ana held the office
until 1862. While he was at the head OF
the State school system he was strong
advocate of The establishment of the State
University. lie was therefore made one
Of the first Regents and was Secretery OF
the board for several years.
Upon his resignation from this post he
went into the san Francisco Stock lIx-
change. and afterward was instrumental
In helping to start the Pacific Stock EX-
change He continued as a stock broker
until 1884, when he was elected City Su-
perintendent of Schools, which position
he held until 1885. Then he became Sec
retary to Mayor Pond, and continued in
that position for eight years. In Novem-
Der last he WAS elected again to the Office
of City School superintendent and began
his familiar duties on January lst.
True to his nanesake. Mr.. MOulder was
a firm Jacksonian Democrat, and his
personal popularity was so great factor
that glance at one of his old scrapbooks
shows that in nearly every election in
which he figured he ran ahead or his
ticket, and was frequently one of few
candidates elected.
The deceased leaves wife and five
children-two daughters and three sons.
