church. He had no sooner announced
his candidacy than the apostles were as
sembled and steps were taken to expel
him from the church. Not satisfied
with this, the apostolic quorum deter
mined to pursue their backslidiug broth.
er to the bitter end and to thwart his
ambition in every possible way.
As Thatcher has a large following in
Utah and represents quite strong fac
tion of the church which he has been
forced to leave, the contest will doubt
less result in "a church schism. If it
were not for the interference of the
church, there would be not the slightest
doubt of ThatCbor's election to the SEN
ate, for of the 63 members of the Utah
legislature 60 are Democrats. Forty
eight Of the members, however, are
MOrmons in good standing, are gem
tiles and l2 are baCksliding saints. So
it is apparent that if the Legislators are
to obey the church Mr.. Thatcher will
stand no chance at all, but it remains to
be seen whether they will calmly sub.
NIT to the arbitrary dictation of the
church or rebel and cast their votes for
Thatcher.
This is not the first time Mr.. Thatcher
has been candidate for the senate. On
the former occasion b. II. Roberts, an
other high church official, had been a
candidate for congress. As neither Of
these men had asked the apostolic quo
rum for its consent, they were both
summoned for discipline Mr.. Thatcher
was summarily elected because he re-
fused to sign the manifesto prohibiting
independent political action. Mr.. Rob-
erts, who had been defeated, was more
pliable. After feeble resistance he re-
canted and was taken back into the
church, being sent to take charge of the
Mormon mission in Cincinnati as o sort
of penance, He was recently recalled to
Utah, and it is expected that he may
later be announced as the church candi-
date for the seat which Mr.. Thatcher
hopes to get. He is also to be installed
as one of the apostles in the place of the
recalcitrant Thatcher. This gift it is
possible for the apostles to bestow, but
whether they can also send him to the
United States senate remains to be seen.
Besides Thatcher the principal candi-
dates are Judge o. W, Powers and Judge
Ii. p. Henderson, both gentiles. Judge
Powers is brilliant campaigner and
was chairman of the state Democratic
committee in the recent campaign.
Judge Henderson is law partner of
Senator Arthur Brown, the Republican
whose term is about to expire. There is
also ex-Delegate Rawlins, a former
Mormon who left the church some time
ago. The fight is waxing warm, and
there may be some interesting develop
ments between now and the election.

nrst Icy breath OF The subarctic monster
behind it.
Here comes the blizzardi
For the first moment OF two IL is like
q cloud, and you can see rod OF two
through it, but it gradually thickens
The horses ears are no longer visible,
and by and by you can scarcely see the
backs Of the poor beasts Then it be-
comes almost impossible to see at all
In the meantime IL has become intensely
cold. 1t is not the snow which we are
familiar with which is falling now. In
deed it does not fall at all. There are
no flakes, but little particles of pointed
| ice, sharp as needles and driven with
tremendous force, million to an inch.
The skin smarts wherever they strike,
and they strike wherever the skin is ex.
posed. When they hit the eyelids, you
are conscious of binding flashes Of
light. When you breathe, you draw
them in, and you can feel them way
down in your bronchial tubes
Think of facing such storml Why,
a man could not breathe such air as that
for ten minutes and live. He would be
suffocated. And this is precisely what
does happen to many blizzard victims.
1t is not always the cold, though it is
cold enough to do almost anything, but
it is breathing powdered ice instead of
air that does the fatal work. Old plains
men realize this and save themselves by
digging hole in the snow and crawl
| ing into it, Even the Indians have come
to understand the scientific make up of
! blizzard, and they make their way
back TO their reservation shanties, with
government blanket wound tightly
around their heads, trusting only to the
sense of direction which the touch of
the wind gives them and not attempting
to use their eyes.
1t is an absolute impossibility to see
in such a storm, for the air is so filed
with the ice particles that it is practi.
cally as Opaque as snow bank. But
many persons refuse TO realize this and
go on plunging blindly through the
snow, trying to make out their path by
peering through half closed eyelids, un.
til they are exhausted and fall down to
perish miserably.
These are some Of the ways in which
blizzard acts and affects man, but
there are many variations. To have q
blizzard, howeveT-a real Dakota bred
blizzard-the wind must blow at the
rate of more than 80 miles an hour, the
thermometer must be way below zero,

in the experience which long years as
Washington correspondent have brought
him. and he may bo depended upon TO do
the right thing I'm the right place.
The position Of private secretary TO tho
chief executive Of the nation is ono of far
greater importance than is generally rccog-
nized. He is not tho mere amanuonsls Of
the president. There are plenty Of under
secretaries to do the letter writing and
such clerical work. IT is the private secre-
tary who stands on guard at the door of

But Mr.. Heath has been trained in a
good school. He was born in Muncie,
Ind, in lSi7 and entered newspaper Of.
1Ce at the early age Of II in the humble
position of printers devil" In 1891 he
went to the great northwest and started
tho first newspaper in Aberdeen, 5. ID.
Later he wont to Washington as special
correspondent, and became widely known
as versatile writer and an expert news.
Ratherer. There Is probably not man of
prominence in Washington who does not
number Heath as one of his friends, for
his popularity Is amazingly wide.
After long service in Washington Mr..
Heath went TO Cincinnati and became
managing editor Of The Commercial Ga
2ette, but at the beginning of the recent
presidential campaign he resigned to take
charge of the literary bureau for the Re.
publican national committee. 1t was the
most active and offectual literary campaign
ever waged, and Mr.. Heath was given
great credit for his share in the work. For
a number of years he has been personal
friend of both Mr.. Mckinley and Mr..
Hanna, and enjoys their fullest confidence.
The $4,000 salary which Mr.. Heath will
receive as private secretary is hardly an in.
ducement to him, for by judicious and for.
tunate investments in real estate he has
acquired Il considerable fortune, but he
doubtless appreciates the power and honor
which go with the position.

DEFIES THE CHURCH.
NOSES THATCHER BOLDLY OPPOSES
THE MORMON APOSTLES.

fhe Strange and Interesting Senatorial
Contest Now In Progress In Utah-Po-
litical Supremacy Of the Mormon Church
IL the Chief Issue.
The senatorial cont, st which is raging
IN Utah is Of such au unusual nature
that it is attracting widespread interest.
1t is not party Struggle or even fight
between factions The real question at
issue is whether the Mormon church is
to be allowed to name the next United
States senator or whether it is to be left
to the Utah legislature.
The most prominent candidate and
the leader oil the antichurch faction is
Moses Thatcher, the deposed and ex-
communicated apostle. While the Nor
mon church has issued an edict in which
its opposition TO Mr.. Thatcher is openly
announced, there has as yet been named
no man who can be said to have the un.
reserved support of the church. That
such a condition Of affairs should exist
in Utah is somewhat surprising in view
of the solemn promises given by the
church when Utah was begging for ad.
mission to the Mnion. In these promises
the Mormon church pledged itself not TO
meddle with politics and to leave its
members politically free. During the
time when statehood was pending the
church kept well in the background but
now that Utah is unalterably fixed in
the Union the Mormon apostles come
! out boldly and declare that one Of the
vital tenets of the church is that nc
Mormon shall accept nomination for
any Office without first consulting the
church authorities.
1t was because Thatcher violated this
rule that he was expelled from the
church last April. For 16 years he had
been one of the l2 apostles who manage
Mormon affairs, He had grown wealthy
and powerful and was regarded by some
as possible candidate for the presiden.
cy of the Mormon church. It appears,
however, SAat Thatcher has never been
| in harmony with the rest of the apostles
since the death Of President Taylor, for
| he is a man Of strong character and a
champion of personal liberty. He often
clashed with those who upheld the su.
premacy Of the church, but there was
no open outbreak until the rule prohib.
iting independent political action was
promulgated.
1t is doubtful if Thatcher would have
become a candidate for the senate at all
had it not been for his wish to defy the

The new patriarch was born in Con

was an apothecary, hut he determined that
his son should enter the ministry. So he
gave him good education and sent him
to Rome to become priest The young
clerical student was graduated from Rome
with the degrees of doctor of theology,
Of philosophy and of canon law. He took
holy orders and returned to Constantine
pie. 1t was shortly after this that he took
part in the movement against the late
Bishop Hassoun, who was endeavoring to
assmilate the Catholic church of Armenia
with the church of Rome Joining with
many other prominent Catholic Arme-
mans, he went over to the National Arme-
nian church. He was appointed metropol-
itan of ErZerum, and after three years of
service in that capacity he was consecrated

patriotism might be the cause of mischief
and asked him to leave. On his return to
Constantinople he was appointed preacher

the seminary of Armash, which he soon
placed on level with similar institutions

THE DAKOTA BLIZZARD.
Genesis and Exodus Of the Ter
ror of the Prairies.
WHAT THE ZEAL THING Is LIKE

The Name Has Been Much Misused, but
the Sure Enough Blizzard Is Seldom
Seen Except In the Northwest-A Hard
Winter In Prospect.
The blizzard crop is going to be an
unusually big one this winter. At any
rate, that is what the weather wise
western folk say. The rabbits fur is
thicker than usual, the wishbone of the
goose is heavy, the trees have grown an
extra thickness Of bark on their north
erly sides, and the wild ducks made a
noisy olamor as they flew south few
weeks ago. These old time auguries
have already been verified to some ex-
tent, for even in November good sized
blizzard swooped down on the Dakotas,
and there has been severe weather all
over the country. We can readily be-
lieve, too, that there is more coming.
People who live east Of the Mississip-
pi talk glibly enough about billiards.,

know what the word means The folks

high wind and zero weather by the
name of blizzard while in New York
state and in New England even q smaller
furry is often referred to by the same
term that is applied to the terror of the
prairies To any one who has passed the
time Of day with real blizzard this
misapplication of the word is ridicu-
lously absurd Those who have never
had blizzard experience, however,
have nothing to regret and can well sf-
ford to glory in their ignorance.
One of the worst features about bliz.
zard is its abruptness. 1t has no regular

snow ON the ground or snow must be
falling at the time.
1t is an unsettled point as to whether
the tiny spears of ice which make the
breath Of a blizzard a death dealing
blast are formations peculiar to this
special phenomenon of nature or whether
the wind and intense cold transform the
ordinary snowhakes into this shape.
While the blizzard is raging it is inn
possible for one caught in the heart of it
to tell whether snow is falling or not,
but some time during the course of the
storm an immense lot of snow does fall
or is brought from somewhere.
The intensity Of the cold can hardly
be believed, for it often happens that
the government thermometers at the
signal stations show the mercury all in
the bulb, which means that it is some
thing more than 40 degrees below. A
lower temperature than that the govern
ment refuses to recognize.
The duration of blizzard varies.
Sometimes it lasts for only SO or 4S
hours, but occasionally the snow laden
wind howls without cessation for days
and days at time. Nine day billiards
are on record, and probably there have
been those which have ragged for longer
periods.
And when it is all over, when the tail
Of the blizzard has gone swishing across
the Mississippi the morning dawps clear
and cold and bright, revealing the prai-
rie covered with thick blanket of dry,
hard packed snow, with here and thera
a nicely rounded mound to show where
stood a bush or perchance where fell
some luckless wanderer caught by the
fury Of the storm almost within reach
of shelter and safety.
