state central committee of Colorado.
He is now manager of two daily papers
published at Leadville Colo, and is en-
route home from trip to Washington,
The following interview was had
with him regarding the political stu
alton in Colorado
"How do you think Colorado will vote
this fall'"
"For silver. No candidate for presi-
dent on a gold platform can carry the
state. The party that declares for free
coinage, be it the republican, democratic,
or silver party. will carry the state by
large majority"
"Do you think Senators Teller and
Wolcott will be delegates to the repub-
lican national convention"
$50 far as Senator Teller is concerned,
l can state positively that he will not be
delegate. This, however is of his
own choice, because if he wished to go,
he would have the united and unani-
nous support of the party. l make this
statement about him not being dele
gate from a personal interview with
Senator Teller. AS to Senator Wolcott,

knowledge, but l am informed by relia-

delegate provided his duties on the
Pacific railroad committee will permit
of his absence from Washington for
that length of time"

"If he desires reelection he will be
the candidate of the people of the state
and there will be no question of his
election. The people of Colorado re-
spect and honor him, both for his noble
ness of character and the steadfastness
to the interests of the state, and there is
no honor within their power they would
not bestow upon him."

DUTIES OF MEMBERS OF THE
CHURCH
Plainly Defined by Apostle Joseph
r. smith at Provo.

Provo, April Ie.-The second day Of
the Utah stake quarterly conference was
opened this morning, in the stake tab
ernacIe, with very large attendance
The speakers this morning were Reed
Smoot of the stake presidency and An
gus NJ. Cannon.
At the afternoon session, Seymour R.
Young and President Joseph F. Smith
were the speakers
President Smith spoke for an hour on
the discipline and order of the church
the duty of each and every member to the
church. He said if an apostle should
refuse to abide or acknowledge the au-
thority of his bishop, the bishop had a
perfect right to withdraw the hand of
fellowship from that apostle. The peak
er said that the church authorities had
the right to dictate both spiritually and
temporarily. The two were inseperably
If man has million dollars or a 100
acre farm, and should be called on
mission, and by going would lose all he
possessed, it would be his duty to go
on the mission. President Smith dealt
at great length on the discipline of the
church and in closing told the Saints
that the manifesto lately read and
adopted at the general conference in
Salt Lake City would be read to them
for their approval or disapproval, as they
saw proper to vote.
But" the speaker said, "all who vote
against it have not got the spirit of the
gospel at heart.
After Joseph F. sat down the much
discussed manifesto was read by Prof.
Brimhall of the B. Y academy. After
the reading President Partridge endorsed
it and called for vote, the great ma
jority voting in favor of its adoption,
while great many did not vote at all,
and several people left the hall.
One man in the center of the build
ing voted against it, holding his hand as
high as he could reach. The choir sang
and conference adjourned.
Apostle Joseph F. Smith and party
returned home to Salt Lake on the
afternoon train.
Friday night, at about II o'clock,
pistol shot was heard in the neighbor
hood of the First ward school house,
and there are number of people who
were in that vacinity claim that it was
meant for them individually. Rumor is
rife to the effect that a certain lady had
been shot at by well-known gentle
man, and that would not be the last of
It. And there are others who are pos
tive that it was not the first of it. either.

Bird That Has Decided Preference for
Human Prey.

Bird That Has Decided Preference for
Human Prey.
In the canton of JIral woman was liv-
ing I'm 1854 who had been carried off by
n lammergeier, or Alpine vulture, when
n baby. At Hundwcl, in the canton OF
Appenzell, child was carried of in
sight of parents. On the Silberalp n
vulture attacked little boy who was
watching sheep, seated on rock, and
had time to knock him over the edge of
the cliff before the shepherds could
drive the bird away. At Murren, above
the valley Of Lauterbrunnen, n vulturc
carried an infant TO an inaccessible rock
opposite the village and devoured it,
But the most striking instance of tile
child-devouring tendency of these birds
occurred In the Bernese Overland. A
child three yenrs old, called Anne Eur
buchen, was taken up TO the high Alp
at hay-malSing time and left asleep
while the fnther fetched load Of hay.
He returned TO find the child gone. AZ
the same time another peasant, called
Henri Michel, was coming up the mouu-
tain by rough path when he heard
child cry. At the same time he saw
lammergeier raise and sail away.
Running up 20 the place he found the
little girl, unhurt except for wounds
in the arm and left hand. where the
bird had clutched her. She had lost
her socks, shoes and cap while being
transported by the bird. the distance
traversed being about ESQ Yards. The
facts were all entered In the parish
archives of the village of Hakercn. and
the girl, who lived 10 be an old woman,
was always known as ''Geier-Anni."--

NEW OUTDOOR GAME.


1*fo W 4@@Aty rI4tAks
Tip and run is game our English
cousins are just learning both boys
and girls. Itresembles cricket. so some
one says. IS caricature resembles its
original.
IL is game TO play early In tho
spring. before cricket or tennis can be
thought OF, and IL has this advantage
over golf. that IL can be played on
lawns or garden plots without damage
10 the turf.
Tip and run involves much exercise
of a rather severe kind.
This is the manner OF II: The fair
guardian of the wicket. armed with a
bat or even a racket. takes her stand,
and as soon as she has hit the
bowler's ball, is bound TO run as fast as
she can between the wickets. as fnilura
to his or TO run involves discontinue
and an immediate successor at the bat.
The score mounts up rapidly. as an
expert batswoman hits each time and
flies to and fro like hall herself. until
she can be dislodged by three successive
failures to hit her ball. The other
players field out, with success gener-
ally less than more. Bowling usually
taxes the skill of fair players more than
batting. They do not, as rule, bowl
with the mechanical skill which marks
the masculine player.
Eleven Is the proper number for each
team to tip and run; when men are per-
mitted TO reinforce the eleven, they play
left-handed or bat with broomsticlSs.
But even thus handicapped, they often
seem to be more than match for their
fair antagonists. though there be
clevens. and there are those, who can
well hold their own upon the level
green, and are afraid of no mans Prov
ess and understand all the intrIcacies
of the game.
The maiden possessed of Atalanta's
speed and grace will doubtless prove the
prize player at tip and run. but every
girl who INDUCES in the game viii find
herself the better and the roster for the
fresh air. sunshine and exercise II gives
her.--Chicago Inter Ocean.
