CONVERTS FROM HOLLAND.
Interesting Party of Immigrants
Headed For Ogden.
Denver News.


A band of twenty Hollanders, con-
verts to the Mormon religion, passed
through Denver yesterday on the way
to Ogden, Utah. The party was headed
by Mana Orsel, a peasant from Rotter-
dom, 81 years of age. All but one MEM
Der of the band were related to the pa
triarch, who changed his faith from
the Catholic a year ago, and is now
seeking a home with the adherents of
his new creed.
Orsel attracted great deal of atten-
ton at the Union depot His children
and grandchildren We're attired in
American dress, and with the exception
of their language and actions, were not
strikingly different from the others of
the crowds at the station. But the old
man was dressed just as he was ac-
customed at home, sabots, cap and
blouse. He leaned heavily on stout
cane but proved to be as nimble as
most of his grandchildren.
In charge of the immigrants was
Arie van de CRAFT, a young Mormon
elder from Amsterdam. 1t was his first
visit TO America, although his parents
have lived in Ogden for several years
The young man was induced to enter
the church of the Latter-day Saints by
missionaries in his native city, and
from them learned the English lam
guage, which he speaks fiuently. He
spent three years in mission work in
Germany and Belgium. and is familiar
with the German and French Ian
guages.

de Graaff, ARE growing steadily in
numbers, especially in the Netherlands
and Germany. We believe in colonizing

made, one by Professor p A. Rydberg
of Columbia college, in 1896. and the
other by Professor Frank Tweedy of
the United States department of geolo-
gy, in 1886.

PLANS OF WEBSTER GREENE

Place Because of Fidelity.
Especial Correspondence,

Mt. Pleasant, July S0.-The appoint
ment of Webster Greene of this city to
the position of supervisor of census in
Utah came as surprise to the majority
of people here. Mr.. Greene's candidacy
had been conducted unoStentatiousiy
and but few know of his aspirations IN
this direction until after the game had
been practically bagged. Even then,
the fight having been conducted SO
quietly, few had any idea that 1t would
be successful Those who knew the sup
port at the aspirant's command, though,
were confident he would win
Senator Brown, Lindsay Rogers and
Glen Miller were firm supporters OF MI.
Greene from the outset, and to their IN
fluence and determination is due the
appointment. Mr.. Greene'S action III
remaining as a delegate in the ST. Louis
convention at the time of the famous
bolt his consistent following of the
party and the personal friendship of
the gentlemen named are the reasons
of the support given.
The headquarters of the office will be
in this city. While no positive instruc-
tions have been received as yet, Mr..
Greene is of the opinion that it will be
necessary to make the various appoint
mentS of subordinates this fall and also
to district the state. This will be done,
so far as is known at present, from
here, and no conference or meeting of
the party leaders is to be held to con-
slider these questions. OF course, recon-
mendations concerning aspirants will
be considered.
Mr.. Greene expects to fulfill the duties
of the office and attend TO his usual vo-
cation until the active work begins next
summer. when he anticipates that his
full time will be required.
Dozens of applications are being re-
ceived daily for the deputyships from
all over the state.

Park City July S0.-A serious cutting af-
fair occurred here last night. For some
time past bad blood has existed between
Hy Workman and Luis Fahin, and this
morning the two met in "a house of III

attacked Workman with a knife, cutting
him on and about the face and neck, al
most severing the jugular vein, and also
about the body and arms in a frightful
manner. The attack was so sudden and
violent that Workman was entirely I'M

WHILE HIS COLLEAGUES ARE
SERVING FOR S25.
Apparent Inequality In Salaries Elk
plained-Mr. Hale Is a Hold-over

The taxpayers may not know it, but

public works, draws salary of 500 per
year from the city, while his three col

iZen George Stringfellow are paid only

board To a man up a tree this looks ike
discrimination, but there Is a reason for
About year ago, when provision was
made by the city council for recognizing
the board of public works. with the city
engineer as ex-officio chairman of the
board, authority was given Mayor Clark
to appoint two citizen members of the
erintendent and the street supervisor,
their compensation being fixed at S25
per year each The appointments were
duly made and confirmed. and since then
Messrs. Game. Seldom and Stringfehow
have drawn S6.25 each every three months.
But the discovery has just been made
that Mr.. Hale draws SlOO year. Some
time ago Mr.. Hale informed Chairman
Kelsey, when the latter was figuring
when he should go down on the payroll
for the same compensate ton as allowed his
to accept less than $l00 yearly, the regular
salary allowed when he was appointed in
the first instance. This information
prompted Chairman Kelsey to solicit an
opinion from City Attorney Hall on the
issues involved. The opinion, delivered
recently, held that inasmuch as Mr.. Hale
had refrained from qualifying under his
,reappointment his position was that of a
Nhold-over, and the salary. reduced from
500 to $25 to board members. could not be
made to apply to Mr.. Hale. On the
strength of this advice the chairman en-
tered Mr.. Hale'S name again on the quar-
terly payroll for S25 and the names of
each of the other three members at SOS
and as presented the pay rolls have been
approved, audited and paid in the regular
course of business.
1t is said that Mr.. Hale had purpose
to subserve in refraining from qualifying
under his tenure of re-appointment his
original term not having expired. The
purpose was not SO much to get the extra
Der of the board of public works to the
Republican administration, during which
he was appointed in the first instance
rather than to the present administration.

Bishop d. s. futile, formerly of this
city, but who is now the presiding
Episcopal bishop of the diocese of Mis-
souri,, came down from Montana yes
terday morning and delivered his first
sermon in twelve years at st. Mark
cathedral.
The edifice was packed with old par
ishionerS and friends who, years De-
fore. had learned TO love and revere the
bishop for his great goodness OF heart,
lofty principle and true Christian spirit.
1t seemed like old times to see the
beaming, kindly countenance and hear
the familiar, earnest, eloquent voice OF
the man whose name for years nad
been a household word in the cities,
towns and hamletS of Utah, Idaho, Ne
vada and Montana, again in the same
place in the same old church he was
instrumental in building some thirty
years ago.
At the close of the ritualistic part of
the service the bishop arose and in a
voice broken with emotion preceded his
sermon by saying, in part:
1T was on July 2, 1867, that l first
arriN ed in this valley. l came in on
one of the old-fashioned stage coaches,
drawn by four horses, and as one who
for twenty years dwelt among you ana
who twelve years ago was banished
from your midst, it would be unseemly
this morning to proceed without saying
a word of greeting. 1 recognize among
you many old friends and many of you
! do not remember; but to you all, and
to the orphans and widows, l bring
kindly good wishes for the future L
want my greeting to extend to the
rafters and on top to the bell OF this
consecrated house; 1 want my greeting
to reach the spirits of those who are
!, Ion I NxT.av IN
all, and thank God 1 have been spared
to meet with you all here again"
1t was like a e-coming, the bishop
said, to be in Salt Lake again, and
after he had made a trip among his
old friends in Idaho he would return
and tarry here for awhile. The bishop
was visibly affected and his audience
was deeply touched by the simple elo-
quence of his words of greeting.
An Eloquent Discourse.
Bishop Tuttle's sermon was brief, but
eloquent; it was descriptive of the
home coming of Christ and the life and
deeds of Saul. His conversion and work
as an apostle, were used to illustrate
the necessity of man bringing himself
nearer to God. 1t would be in the ma
ture of a homecoming for mankind to
forsake its Wickedness and sins and
acknowledge the power of the son of
man. Saul was sneered at for f0rsak-
ing his wickednesS and exhibiting a
humbleness of heart. The Savior was
ridiculed for the power he possessed OF
bringing men to him; he was Knocked
for healing the sick because all the
sick were not healed. The Savior did
not put away all sorrow and all suffer
ing, for he was a man of sorrow and of
suffering and those conditions We're left
to be lessons to the people. Christ's
through his benign influence and not
through law and power.
What people appeared to want most
out of life was ease, luxury and COM
fort, but they We're not put here pri-
marily for that purpose. To alleviate
suffering and follow in the footsteps Of
Christ was more in keeping with the
purposes of existence. When these
conditions prevailed the homecoming
of Christ was assured.
