CANNON OF UTAH.
what Is Meant by the Joint REESE
luton.

Chicago, April 2I.-A special from
Washington says:
Senator Cannon, of Utah has intro
duced joint resolution which if it is
enacted into law, will give the city of
Washington one of the most gigantic
attractions for tourists and curiosity
seekers possessed by any city in the
world MIR. Cannon proposes to have
constructed in this city a monstrous
map of the United States, showing ev-
cry physical feature of the country, ey-
cry hill, mountain, valley and plain, ev-
cry lake, river, every hamlet, village,
town and city and probably every rail
road. A this is te be done in miniature,
but on such scale az will give a map
about two-thirds of mile in length by
one-third of mile in breadth. The
cost of such project may be imagined.
"The joint resolution provides fer the
appointment of a commission of five
persons, who are to serve without com
pensation; three to be appointed by The
president, one by the president of the
senate and the other by the speaker of
the house, whose duty it shall be to in
quire into and report upon the advisa-
bility, practicabiity and cost of estab-
fishing such map, which Mr.. Cannon
describes as ground map of TIN United
States to present our country in minia-
ture.'
1.-THE map is 10 be constructed on such
scale that one foot Of map surface will
represent one square mile on the actual
area IN round numbers the United
States extends about $500 miles from
cast to west and about half that distance
from north to south This would give
map $3.50 feet long by I,75o feet wide.
Mr.. Cannon il presenting the resolution
announced that in few days he would
address the senate on the subject,

brother born of another mother, for his
father was polygomist, who had just
fulfilled promise, prophecy that he
would come into the fold. He spoke Of
the fact that the Mormon church was
the only one cast out of The parliament
of religions at the Worlds Fair, but he
looked upon it as the fulfllment Of
prophecy.
He closed by reading afidayits from
the Book of Mormon and said that the
Latter.day Saints had heard the voice
of the True Shepard, and that Jesus
Christ would come again In person to
reign over the world, and all the Nor
mons wanted was to earn at the end the
praise, "Well done, thou good and faith

The choir sung the hallclujah chorus

ing in the "Star Spangled Banner" with
the singers. Evan Stephens turned
around and waved the baton for the un-
trained choir-the music lovers who had
grown enthusiastic and were quite ready
to ''join in the chorus"
Notifications in the programme intro
duced some agreeable secular numbers.
AS upon previous occasions, the organ
solos had to be omitted because of the
uncertain results to be obtained
The Harmony club, one of the many
choruses, in the great choir, proved TO
be an attractive feature. 1t sang as an
an opening number, "The Bridge" for
the first encore pretty negro melody,
and for the second "l;reezes OF the
Night" The boy alto, Charlie Pike,
captured the audience as upon all for
mer occasions.
The chorus work was, if it were pos
sible, better than at any other time. The
first anthem "Let All Israel Sing BY
Joseph J. Daynes, the organist was
written for the dedication of the Nor
mon Temple in 1888 The choir gave
also 1.-The Soldiers Chorus, from Faust,
1.-THE Hallelujah" from the Messiah, the
Mormon Hymn 40 My Father" the fla
vorite Welsh march, BY request, the
"Triumphal March," from Naaman, and
the dedication anthem "Hosannah," by
Stephens.
The soloists Mrs. Lizzie Thomas Ed
wards, Miss Mabel Cooper, f. Easton,
w. E. Weihe, George D, Piper and H.,
S. Ensign gave agreeable renditions of
the parts assigned to them.

Sacramento, Cal, April 2r.-The
choir tour came to an end here tonight,
in very notable style. Despite the severe
storm which was raging, the Congrega-
tional church was thoroughly filled with
brill'a ant and fashionable audience
On leaving San Jose this morning, the
party was overwhelmed with roses, and
the ladies all appeared tonight with
white dresses, set off with many colored
flowers, immensely adding to the effect.
The choir has never looked SO pretty
and it never sang better. All its num-
bers were encored in enthusiastic fash
ion. And each individual was greeted
with warm favor.

DelagOn Feigns Death and Thereby
Escapes Death-A story Alleged to

nance or the OIden Days.

Cincinnati, April 2I.-The CONNER
cial Gazette's special correspondence
from Mrs. Woodward, dated Havana,
April IS, contains an interview with DR.
Jose Manuel Delagoa, the American
who was shot and hacked and left for
cad by Spanish troops on March 4,
when they raided the plantation of Dol
ores in Mainoa. Delagoa said he was
an American neutrSl in this contest at
tending to his farm. When captured he
presented his passport as an American
citizen General Malguizo answered by
striking him three times with his sword.
Delagoa and his seven ploughmen were
tied together with rope and placed In
line. A detail of Spanish troops feed at
them by command. Maceo that day
had fired Dolores plantation and retired
before the Spanish troops.
A Spanish captain came to DeIagoa's
house with twenty men, told the doctor
and his seven field hands to follow.
DelagOa showed his passport as an
American; so did his men.
The captain said he had nothing to do
with the matter; he was obeying orders,
but it was his opinion that the worst
thing they could do would be to show
that they were Americans. Arriving at
General Malguizo's headquarters Della
goa said they were neutrals and then
showed their passports. Malguizo be-

consul general If he were here"
There were eight of them taken out
and tied together with a rope and placed
against stone wall The order was to
cut the prisoners down with: machetes.
In attempting this the rope broke and
the soldiers were ordered to fire. At
tie first volley Delagoa fell forward,
feigning death. The second volley sent
bullet into his thigh. All the others
except one were killed. The doctor was
left for dead and lost his consciousness.
When he recovered he found himself In
his dwelling There his old father took
care of him. Shortly afterward Spanish
soldiers came, searching for the two that
escaped. Delagoa's father hid him In
cane field exposed to the inclement
weather Meantime the old father com
municated with Consul General VIII

Havana, where Delagoa now lies under.
protection of ti,e United States.
DR. Delagoa graduated at Columbia
college, New York, and at a medical
college in that city. He was in New
York from 1865 to 1877, when he left to
take charge of the Dolores plantation
IN Cuba.

SAN BERNARDINO, July 15-The
trial Of E. P. Scollard for the murder of
Albert p. Roland at Calico two months
ago was called in Judge Campbelrs
court this morning, and the whole day
was taken up in an attempt to get a
jury. The first venire consisted of thir-
ty-five, and out of that number eleven
were acceptable, and were sworn as ju
rors to try the case. They are George
Miller. w. B. Covington, ]. p. Austin,
N. G. Gill, ]. B. Hanna, F. H. Magoffin,
S. H. Johnson, w. H. Gilbert, T. G. Gra-
ham, James E. Nish and F. w. Haag.
A second venire of six was ordered to
report at 10 o'clock in the morning.
The murder Of Roland was the result
Of q quarrel in a gambling house at
Calico. Roland was not a gambler, and
had gone to the mining town in search
of employment. This he had secured,
and was to go to work on the Monday
following the Saturday night on which
he was killed. He spent the night in
one of the resorts, and along toward
morning quarrel arose between Scol-
lard and another player. Roland at
tempted to take the part of one, and
Scollard shot and killed him.
The murder created great deal of
feeling in the place, and there was
thought to be grave danger of a lynching
at the time. but the officers were able to
get Scollard out of the way. Subse-
quently the citizens of the town warned
all the gamblers out of the place, and
at the latest reports there were no games
running in Calico.
