FAR TOO PRECIOUS.
ga Child Vocalist" Who Will Prob
ably Marble Behind Penitentiary
Bars


San Francisco, Dec. 23.-Elmer Rus
sell, a 16-year-old Chicago youth who
is known professionally as 1.-The child
vocalist has had a varied experience
since he left here several months ago
with the Essie Adair troupe to tour
the orient. While the company was in
Hong Kong, Russell shot a Chinaman
in the leg, and so elated was he with
his craftsmanship that when the COM
pany moved on to Tien TSin he tried
his gun again, this time perforating
his victims cheek. Essie and her trou
badOurs decided that Elmer was too
tumultuous and bought him a steerage
ticket for this city by the steamer Bel
gic, which arrived Monday. The child
vocalist, however, only travelled as far
as Honolulu. That night a sea captain
named Searle was robbed of some val
liable jewelry and the following day a
Honolulu shopkeeper reported that the
stolen property had been offered to
him by a lad whose description tailed
exactly with that of the gun-fighting
warbler. When the steamer Australia
left Honolulu the police were anXiously
searching for Elmer, with every pros
pect of success.

With all its delights, Christmas tide
brings no keener pleasure to the average
woman than that of shopping in the even
ing with the partner of her joys and sor-
rows What though Jack has toiled all
day, he Inanfully screws his courage to
the sticking point, and when Jill triumph
antly leads him forth, like a lamb TO
the slaughter, contriveS somehow to look
as though he enjoyed the prospect of the
coming fray.
Jill, like an experienced general, has
reconnoitered the field WELL and she
knows just where to lead her-as yet
submissive lord. Does she covet toys
for the children. he finds himself, as if
by magic, in the toy department, and be-
fore long he is squeezing woody lambs to
make them ',ba-a, or spinning mechan-
zeal tops with as much gusto as if he,
were the destined recipient instead of
the giver of those childish delights.
@ o @
Or, If there is d grown-up daughter, he
is led unsuspectingly to mammoth
jewelers., and there, before q tray of the
largest rings, or bracelets, or before a
bewindering array of dainty trifes of
thrift spirit which appalls Jill. and she,
to her surprise, finds herself preach
ing to Jack on the folly of over-lavish
Christmas expenditure.
If, on the other hand, Jacks purse is
exceedingly limited, the purchases are
made from a street fakir or from some
unpretentious little shop or one of the
near-at-home streets-a tiny chair, a dap
pied rocking horse with a fiamboyant TAIL
or stout little sled, is carried proudly
home and Struggled to a place of safety
till the all-important morning.
@ @ @
How happy they are; how gay the
shops; how pretty the holly, and how
fragrant the evergreensl The stores are
crowded. to be sure; the counters are
piled high with confused masses of goods;
the floors are soiled with the tramp of
many feet, and Uttered with papers-but
what matter? Jack and Jill are happy,
and high or low, rich or poor, that is
enough-or ought to be-and so blessings
on the merchants who invented the holt
day keep-open-every-ev scheme.
What would Christmas be without the
conjugal shopping excursions made under
the ftful glare of the electric lights and
in the midst of throngs of idlers who are
only looking? Nothing at all; delusion
and a snare-a hallow mockery which
would leave Jill without the longed-for
opportunity to hear Jack express his
opinion as to the beauty of the very
house-coat or bath-robe which is destined
to be his; nor-worst calamity of all
would Jack have the chance to hear Jill
(auite unconsciously, of course) express a
desire-above all other things-for the
very thing he had never dreamed of CIV
ing her.

The professor has been away from

corals This is by far the largest
amount of coral ever sent to one point
in America. The professor has also a
lot more which he will forward to his

"On this coral hunting trip" said
Professor Ward. we had a Patton
schooner with the crew, a seven-ton
cutter and crew, including a diver and
dingies, or small boats, for collecting
The crews were Malays and South Sea
islanders.

or cabbage. They were blue, yellow

across. Some of the single great coral
rings were as much as 20 feet in diam

In many places the corals resembled
through the water the most beautiful
flower gardens
Besides these were sharks, sea
urchins and the treat giant clam,
which is the biggest bivalve in the
world. This clam is four or five feet
long and weighs as much as 1000
pounds. We collected usually when
the water was low on the reef and then
started the loaded dingies off for the
schooner

WATROUS REPLIES
TO THE CHARGES AGAINST HIM
OF UNPRoFESSIoNAL CONDUCT
Says the Accusations Are Based Only
on the Testimony of a Convict
and Were Manufactured In
Convict's Cell.

In regard to the recommendation made
IN the report of the grand jury that the
court appoint a committee to investigate
the conduct of Attorney H. r. Watrous
MN as published in The Herald of yes
terday. Mr.. Watrous sends in the fol-
lowing communication:
TO THE PUBLIC.
In justice TO myself and friends, and
IN reply to an article which appeared in
Inc Herald of December %, [ will say
that Sandy. the man who was convicted
on the charge of obtaining money under
false pretenses by selling dock roots to
divers persons in this community, repre-
sentlng the same as being fancy lowers,
did not employ me to defend him for
50. He had employed one of our leading
law hrms to defend him, but had no
money, and said firm withdrew from the
ne was brought in for trial; he came to
me and told me that he had no money,
put his family in England could send
nm what he wanted, and l should be
Wen paid After the case was tried he
said | had treated him we'll: that he
would write home for $50 for me, xfhich
amount he repeatedly declared he would
see that l received. / did not write for
December % He wrote the letter and
ordered it directed in my care. l took
the letter and check for $50 to Sandy at
the county jail; he endorsed the check
and turned it over to me, with the re-
mark that he had been honest and treated
me as he had agreed to, and asked me if
/ would give him $40 when he got out.
Two as reputable men as Salt Lake City
contains heard these words.
AS TO bribing officials, no word has
ever been spoken by any person to me,
nor have l ever spoken a word to any
person that could be construed to be an
offer to bribe, nor has any one ever
SPOKEN to me of the matter in any Off
cial capacity, nor did l ever admit that
the part of the only letter / wrote per-
tanning to the release of Sandy was fic-
ton.
The article referred TO in The Herald
of the Ord is but the testimony of a con-
wet, and manufactured in convict's

ANGUS M. CANNON.

A very excellently executed cornet
solo. by George H. Thomas was fol-
lowed by Angus M. Cannon, who, as a
boy, knew the prophet. Aside from
what he had been told by his parents
he could testify to the divinity of the
man. There was no doubt about Joseph
being commissioned by God to estab-
lish his gospel on earth.

Joseph were requested to stand UP,

PRESIDENT SMITH.

Sister jamie Ransom sang song,
and then President Joseph f. Smith
addressed the aSsemblage at length,
reviewing the history of the prophet.
1t was in 1920, at the age of IA, that
Joseph went into the woods to pray in
silence, when the heavens were opened
to him and he beheld the Father point
ing to his Son, the Savior, saying:
This is my beloved Son; hear We
him" He related the Angel Moroni's
visits to the prophet, the discovery of
the plates, the subsequent vision when
John the Baptist appeared and deliv-
cred over the keys, the memorable bap-
tism at the foot of Main street, Maui
VOC, when the prophet and Oliver
Cowdery were ordained by John the
Baptist TO the priesthood of Melchisi-
dec, and finally the events leading up
to his death. AS to the genuineness of
the Book of Mormon and the Doc
trine and Covenants, the speaker re-
lated the experience of the three
chosen messengers who, with their own
eyes, saw the engraving upon the
plates, from which these books were
translated. haS
< In closing. the speaker said if any
body wanted to know if they were in
possession of the truth, they had but
to know whether they followed the
enunciations of the prophets. MILFORD
Woodruff was as much a prophet as
Joseph Smith and we should obey and
honor him. -
PRESIDENT GEORGE @. CANNON.
After a song by the choir, President
George @. Cannon made brief talk.
He counselled the people to obey the
prophets now living and respect and
honor them rather than worship the
SepulchreS of the dead.
John Robinson sang THE Seer" as a
solo. after which Patriarch John Smith
made a few brief remarks. followed by
John Henry Smith and Heber j.
