prosecuting attorney talked Of it yes
terday in his diatribe against gambling,
to show how the gambling instinct was
enough to blot out all conscience, all
manhood and everything else; so as to
show you that he might and would be
able to steel himself against this law
of Almighty God impressed upon the
conscience and minds of men, and did
not deny. and WON'T deny, the action of
the law, but claims that through the
action of gambling he had come to- be
able to steel himself against this Of,
deal. Now, in that condition of steel
ing himself, according to their theory,
against the action of his conscience,f
perturbed and disturbed necessarily
what does he do? Why, the most inn
portant thing that there is in this
case. He goes in before Mayor Eustisss
and Doyle, and Lawrence, and Hall,
and Nye, and all of these gentlemen
who have exhibited so much ability to
you, the very first officers, the keenestI
and brightest of your municipality or
county, he goes in and sits down before
them. They have a stenographer, and
the stenOgrapher takes down every
word he says. They question him. one
man after another, one band afteTsan-
other, from 10 o'clock in the morning
until next day, next night at 2, thirteen
hours, And when he goes upon the,
witness stand he tells exactly the same
story from beginning to end. You saw
them sitting there with a hundred
page pamphlet in their hands. His
words were taken by this phonetic art,
so that he could not escape; and no
one single mistake or variance. -
Now apply your cardinal rule as to
what his statement had been, made
outside the court, and you find the man
sustained, verified under circumstances
which, If guilty, it is almost beyond the
power of human reason to conceive,
that he could have at that time, in all
the various details of hundred pages
of printed manuscript, and if 1t had not
cropped out that he had told something
afterwards which, upon Investigation
would have been found to have been
untrue. Now, be fair. 1 know you
will be fair. Jury plays fair That has
been so for hundreds of years. 1t is SO
yet. No speech, no diatribe, no non
descript can break down that spirit of
fair play which the jury box contains
always.

LIBEL UPON RELIGION.
No Thinking Man Can Believe
Claus A. Blfxt.

The most preposterous libel upon the
religion of Jesus Christ that ever was
INDUCED in by mortal men is this. Or
dinarily you wouldn't believe Claus A.
Blixt before he had repented, and ordi-
narily you wouldn't believe him after
he had repented. Wei, in what man
ner are you asked to believe him now?
why, where his word is to be taken, at
the supremest moment of your life
The accusing state asks you here now
on his word to beach the boat of your
consciences; to anchor to the sand
when in the ordinary-most ordinary
matters of your life, you, acting in
natural minds, using your natural
senses, in the exercise of your great
common sense and honest manhood you
would not believe him if he accused
your own brother of completely in the
murder of Catherine Cling? He might
have accused anybody. All the men
who were seen or around about that
portion of the city lay within the touch
of his leprous hand, and so near as |
can understand the doings and the
workings of that peculiar and new
tangled grand jury, which had been
brought together by Mayor Eustis, they
didn't care who it was if he only
touched somebody.
Just contemplate-oh, contemplate
what answer you will make to your
conscience, what answer you will make
to your dear friends when you return
to them; what answer you will make
to the nation and the world when you
say: I'VE ordered the execution of
Harry Hayward upon the word of
Claus A. Blixt. We did not see the
murder, nor hear anything of it. We
used Claus A. BliXt's eyes, and Claus
A. BliXts ears, and we took Claus A.
Blixt's word, and now they are going
to hang him." What a preposterous.

CHANGES HIS TESTIMONY

Now, he changes in his testimony,
what / just read to you was his sec
| ond statement, where he said that the
revolver was brought to him at
o'clock. Mark you, these are his own
words. These are his own words,
where he is given time to remember.
Now, what did he say before you, gen.
tlemen? He said it was now between
and Z, and nearer Z, according to his
testimony on page 37S of this record.
Changing constantly to meet the ext
gencies of this case; to defeat the de-
fense-any chance of the defendant
making any defense here. Five o'clock
to o'clock, and o'clock to o'clock
This very able man; this man whom
you see was able; this man that has
no defects of memory; this man that
/ has a keener and better mind for these
things than either you or have, you
i catch him here changing, changing,
changing, to suit the exigencies of this
case. Well, gentlemen of the jury,
what respect have you, what credence
have you for that character of man?
Would you believe, in the ordinary af-
fairs of life, man who told you an I'M
truth in regard to the simplest thing?
For instance, If he told you that he
had watered the cows at o'clock and
your wife came in and said to you, at
was down there at 5 o'clock and those
cows wanted water" and you brought
that man up again and he says mo,
1t was o'clock and then your daugh-
ter came up and she says, mo, l was
down there at 6 o'clock and those cows
wanted water and would have given
1t to them myself if L could" Then he
says, ooh, it was o'clock" Now.
would you believe such man as that
who shifted his story to evade being
caught? If you do not believe him
about watering cows, would you be-
lieve him in case where they asked
you to take mans life, on what he
says, what he heard and his memory
of what he said and heard? You, to
adopt, you to accept him as your verac-
fty, the guide, the reason of your act,
by which you let loose the hangman
on citizen? In both the first and sec
ond statements he said that he left the
basement to go down to Kenwood
boulevard-he does not use the word

The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-05-14

Washington, May 13.-The weather
bureau furnishes the following bulletin:
The unusually warm weather that pre-
vailed last week throughout Missouri and
the upper Mississippi valleys and lower
lake region, the middle Atlantic states
ard New England, has been followed by
a wave OF extremely low temperature
throughout the same districts, the eX-
tremes of both low and high temperature
exceeding in many cases the record OF any
previous year for the first half OF May
The warm wave began on Wednesday,
the Sth, in the Missouri valley with max
imum temperatures ranging from ~ 10 1OV
degrees, and moved eastward, reaching
the middle Atlantic states and New Eng
land on Friday.
The cool wave set in the northwest on
Friday night. FrostS were reported Satur-
day morning as far south as kansas and
Missouri. They extended 70 the Atlantic
coast by this morning, producing nght
frosts as far south as Chattanooga and
Lynchburg. Killing froStS OCCURRED on
Sunday morning in Nebraska, Iowa ana
Michigan and this morning in Michigan
Ohio and West Virginia
Warnings Of these froStS WerS cent out
by the weather bureau on the day pre-
ceding their occurrence to all the districts
affected. Shows occurred along Lake
Michigan III Wisconsin. The storm which
developed suddenly duri0g the last
twenty-four hours is now Hentered in the
Ohio valley and will probably cause a
still further fan of temperature, as it
moves eastward, producing freezing
weather in the lower lake region and
northern portion of New York and New
England.

.erhe Girl Lett behind Me -

Noise seems to be one of the chief
ingredients in sensational dramatic
work. In Massenet's new one act
opera 'fNavarraise" there is so much
artillery firing that the windows in the
London Opera house were frequently
broken. When the opera was given
recently at Windsor castle, the queen
stipulated that drums should be used
instead of cannon She did not want
her windows broken, and she did not
want her heart destroyed. In THE
Girl Left Behind Me-" which comes to
the Salt Lake theatre May 16 and II,
there is no offensive noise, although II
is a war drama. The authors take
other and more effective Eneans of i'm
pressing the audience. If one wishes
to hear how music cam be made more
terrifying than noise, the great third
act of this play will furnish abundant
evidence. There is lots of intense ex-
citement, but little noise. The war
chants of the Indians. heard in the dis
lance are really terrifying and more
awful than any amount of ear-splitting
noise. When actual firing is heard ii
is all in the distance, and never be-
comes offensive. The sale of seats be-
gins this morning.

Bad in New York.

New York, May 13.-Reports from many
sections of the state indicate that last
nights frost did an immense amount of
damage to growing vegetables, crops and
fruit kilograms from Dunkirk state the
entire grape crop of the Chautauqua
grape belt was ruined. The loss IS estl-
mated al 81, 600 in this belt.
The Chautauqua grape belt extends
through Erie county westward to Erie.
1t occupies a strip from six to eight
miles ii width along the southern shores
of Lake Erie.
The number Of acres bearing grapes
last year was $1,000. This year 5000
acres would have been bearing. The
vines were loaded with blossom buds last
evening and today from one end of the
belt to the other the vineyards are moth
:ng but Slackene5 ruins and have theap-
pearance of having been visited by fire.
Three thousand six hundred cars were
loaded from the belt last season.
At Westfield the vines were entirely cut
down. Scme growers will plough up their
vineyards and return to the old style of
general farming. Brockton, generally
known as the center of the Cbautauqua
grape belt, is in mourning today. Nothing
is raised there but grapes, and the frost
last night cut them all down
Jerry Hickman, the millionaire grower
and wine manufacturer, says the loss 10
the belt by reason of the destruction done
TO the grapes will reach at least $1,000, 900.
His own loss he estimates at S250,0OO.
At Fredonia nothing of the grape crop
can ne saved.
