of the Day.

]. A. futile, alias Thomas, alias ]. Arthur
Thurman, alias Morris, alias Lutes, alias
Lewis who married Miss Fannie Rutherford
has very unsavory reputation. HIS right
name is supposed to be futile. year ago
he escaped from the Chicago authorities,
who had fortythree indictments against him
for forgery He was captured again later on
about Christmas, but escaped a second time
through the familiarity in looks of his at
torney and himself. At this time four hand
some women each claimed him as a hus-
band The first time he escaped he had been
sentenced to Joliet, but the judge was len
lent. and the sentence was suspended. In less
than six months he had forged the judges
name on a check for more than $3.50. His
modus operandi was novel in Chicago. By
some means he learned the business trans
actions between two firms. He would. repre-
sent that the debtor firm wished to settle and
forge their name to a check for an amount
larger than the amount of their debt. He
would then secure the difference between
the amount of the check and the debt.
The case is a most pathetic one. The
heartbroken mother will not rest until her
refined daughter has come home, and al
ready has exerted every energy in that di-
rection. 1t was her wish at first to enlist
the aid of the newspapers, but at the so
licitations of her friends refrained from so
doing. She now believes that had this been
done Immediately matters would have been
speedily cleared up.

THE MORMON CHURCH NOW PRO-

AMONG MEMBERS.
TWO ELDERS ARE NOW HERE
TRYING TO SPREAD THE RELIGION
OF UTAH IN MINNIE

apOIis.

Elders Hansen and Harrison, as rep
resentatives of the Mormon church, OF
Salt Lake county, Utah, commenced a
propaganda of their religion in this city
Sunday evening and continued last
evening The meetings were held in
the open air at Fourth street and
Nicollet avenue.
The Mormon creed as expounded by
the elders is interesting, in that it re-
moves to a great extent a fallacious
idea that has been publicly entertain
ed; that is, pertaining to poiygdmy.
Mormonism is often mentioned as an ex-
ponent of this deviation from ordinary
marriage rules. The elders state that
in the early stages of the creed poly
gamy was to a small extent practlced,
but not to- percentage to exceed five.
At that time it was allowed by the
church, but since 1890 this has been
prohibited by the creed, and any Nor
mon who transgresses this will be os-
tracised by the church, and the law of
the country be allowed it's course. In
this connection it might be interesting
to note that Elder Hansen is as yet in
single blessedness, while Elder Harri-
son enjoys the comforts of home in the
love of one wife
The articles of faith are thirteen,
and were prepared by Joseph Smith.
They recognize God as the Eternal
Father, his son Jesus Christ, and the
Holy Ghost. 1t believes in the atone
ment of Christ, faith and repentance;
that man must be called of God by
prophecy and by the laying ON of
hands. The articles believe in the gift
Of tongues, prophecy, revelation, vi
sions, healing, Interpretation Of
tongues. The articles further believe in
being the subject of kings, presidents,
rulers and magistrates; in obeying,
honoring and sustaining the law.
The elders expect to hold open air
meetings only for a short time, as a
hall in the central portion of the city
will soon be procured

KNOCKED OUT BY REND.
Mine Manager Whipped by the Pep
Dery Colonel.

CHICAGO, Sept. IA dispatch to
the Tribune from Pittsburg, says q
fight occurred in the office of the Mono
gahela house this afternoon, between
Col. w. P. Rend of Chicago, and ]. ].
Stryber, manager of the Blythe Coal
company, in which the latter was bad
ly worsted. Col. Rend was talking with
Jacob P. Ridgeway, a millionaire opera
tor, about some business arrangements
and arranged to meet in the evening
and settle the affair. AS the men part
ed, Stryber, who was standing close
by, remarked: "Snubbed again; it does
me good to see one millionaire snub an
other Rend explained that there had
been no snub, and Stryber said: DO
you call me liar"
Yes, you are a liar-confound you, -
replied Rend, and he Immediately
struck Stryber in the face, knocking
him down.
Stryber left the hotel saying he was
going to get gun, and Rend, after
arming himself, waited for Stryber to
appear. When he came, Rend asked
him if he wanted to fight, offering to
have it out there or at any other time.
Stryber would not fight, however, and
the matter dropped.

BEST BUTTER MADE.
Minnesota Able to Compete in the
London Market.


WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.-The sec
rotary of the agriculture has received
complete reports from the third ex-
detrimental shipment of butter to Lon
don by this department. This con-.
sisted of a lot of Minnesota creamery
butter in fifty six-pound boxes, and
tubs, and a lot of sachusetts
creamery butter in small tubs. Tie
export was made in June. 1t cost 2L,
cents pound to carry the butter from
Central Minnesota to London by the
accommodations all the way, except
ing short transfers. The transporta-
ton from Western Massachusetts cost
rather more, because of the absence
of refrigerator car line to New York
and the necessity Of paying express
age.
This butter was all placed by the
department agent in London, in the
hands of retail dealers. They paid
from Is to 1917 cents per pound for it,
the same butter being then worth 10
cents in New York The wholesale
price Of Danish butter was about 20
cents in London at that time. 1t was
all retailed to consumers at "a, % and
26 cents per pound, most of it at g
cents. This was the same as the re-
tail price of the best Danish, which
leads the London market for sailed
butter
The retailers, upon being convinced
of the high quality of Minnesota but
ter, paid the same price for it in tubs
and in the favorite australian" or
cubical boxes. Six different dealers
took the Minnesota butter at a uni
form price Of 181 -5 cents per pound.
1t cost about 16 cents delivered to
these London dealers. The Massachu-
sets butter was of equal quality, and,
although some of it sold to dealers
at 1912 cents, the small packages were
not liked by the trade. This butter
was worth 20 cents for local sale, in
the neighborhood where made. Thus
as in other cases, the Western cream
cry butter was sold at a fair profit,
over 2 cents per pound, while the New
England creamery butter was sold in
London at less than it would have
brought at home. The London retail
ers' margin for profit-61A to 10 cents
and about cents on an average
was too great. The consumer paid
twice as much for the Minnesota but
ter as the creamery in that state re-
ceived for it, and, of what the butter
cost the consumer, the farmer VINO
supplied the cream got less than two

HARRISON IS CAPTAIN.
He VIII Direct the University Foot
baIIists Again.

John Martin Harrison, known to football
and university circles as Jack or Hinkey"
Harrison, was last evening reelected cap
tain of the varsity gridiron gladiators. The
election held after the practice was over
and was unanimously in favor of the crack
end. Harrison has played on the team for
three years, this being his fourth He made
the team in his freshman year, and imme-
diatey sprang into prominence because Of
his fine work He made a member Of
the All-Western team that year, and has
ever since held the same position. Last year
he was captain of the team, and became
famous for his long runs around the right
end. Harrison made a good captain last
year, and with that experience and some
valuable lessons which he learned should
make the best captain that Minnesota ever
had.
The practice yesterday something
pleasing to look at. Coach Jerrems was on
hand in uniform, the big Yale ~ looming
up on his sweater and getting into the play
all the time. He kept things moving in fine
style and the students are now beginning
to talk about the probable scores against
Wisconsin.

NEW YORK, Sept. IA conspiracy
to smuggle large quantities of phena-
cetine, in which several prominent
druggists in this city are said to be
involved, was nipped today by the
seizure of 400 ounces of the drug in a

Hoboken, was arrested and arraigned
before United States Commissioner
Russ, on the charge of having Snug

ago several sailors were arrested for
smuggling phenacetine. 1t is alleged
that they are in league with certain
we'll known druggists.

VIII Stay Out.

county have signifed their intention of stay
ing out on strike. They claim that they will
hold out for the 69-cent rate and 43 cents for
the run of the mine. 1t was thought that
there would be difficulty about starting
the mines. The Mercer county miners did
not strike for an increase in wages, but mere
ly through sympathy for the miners of the
lower regions.
