The Thirteenth ward assembly hall
was the scene last night OF the reunion
of nearly hundred members of the old
Nauvoo Legion, and it was almost mid
night when the flow of songs and rem
iniscence ended.
There is always an element of the
pathetic about a gathering of old peo-
pie; the white hairs and scanned faces
and the inflrm walk tell in themselves
stories that command a sad attention,
but there was less of this visible last
night than there would have been in
any other similar gathering in the
world, possibly. The old faces were
there, to be sure. and the white hair,
but there was a. notable absence of
bowed forms; these old fellows VINO had
fought Indians and hunger and thirst
in the long ago and founded an empire
IN the wilderness, were only old in
looks
The reunion was given under the
auspices of the Association of Veteran
Artillerymen of the Nauvoo Legion, and
was the first held since 1870, when the
legion was practically dissolved by Gov
ernor Shaffer. The artillerymen organ
lied their association Sept. IA, 1897, and
meet on the first Wednesday in each
month in the Templeton building. Mem

VERY LIVELY CORPSE
Senator Vest Says Silver Issue Is
Far From Dead.

New York, Aug. pa special to the
Tribune from Toronto, says:
| Senator Vest, of Missouri. now in To-
ronto, has been interviewed by the
Globe on American politics. He refer
red to President McKinley's speech at
Ocean Grove. laying down the admins
tration's policy as to expansion Mr..
Vest said the expansion question is
causing misgivings in many states.
Many prominent Democrats are in
sympathy with the policy. while many
! leading Republicans are opposed to lit.
How important these differences of
opinion are, will not be known until
after election. Expansion is not re-
garded favorably in the southern
states. where there is a great outcry
against the fruit imported from Porto
Rico and Cuba. The imperialists say
these islands are great markets for
American manufactures.
This is an illusory view" said Mr..
Vest, land at best prediction"
AS to the coming campaign, Mr.. Vest
says the silver question is by no means
dead. 1t was never more prominent
as an issue than il is today. This is
shown by the Tammany demonstration
of July 4. when Mr.. Hogg made his
famous speech. In the west and south

CARNATIONS are most apparent.
Besides representing Cuba, Porto
Rico and the Philippines as valuable
market acquisitions. the Republicans
will claim the prosperity as due to the
tariff policy. But, the farmers have
received no particular benefit from the
prosperity and are as dissatisfied as
ever.
THE election will be vastly different
from that of 1886 on account of the
new issues The effect of these cannot
be known until the vote is polled and
no man is justified in making any pro-
phecy as to the outcome Both candi-
dates carry great weight in the coun-

Utah Loan & Trust building. Harris
said the case seemed a clear one and
he particularly remembered the desper-
ate character of Smith, as revealed in
the story of his capture as it came out
in the trial.
Carl Loveland was then sheriff of
Box Elder county and he traced Smith
into the mountains, secured assistance
and guarded all avenues of escape until
the prisoner was starved out
Judge H. H. Rolapp, then a young
attorney in Ogden, defended Smith and
was at first the recipient of the latter's
gratitude as while in the penitentiary
Mr.. Rolapp received letter from the
prisoner. his former client asking him
TO get the jurors in the case to sign a
request for his pardon. Mr.. Rolapp at
the same time received a cane and a
box, the handiwork of Smith who sent
them as presents. The attorney could
not get the desired signatures and so
wrote TO Smith who thereupon grew
angry and wrote an abusive letter to
ter's name on the list of those to be
done for when the culprit should get
out of the pen.
Mr.. Belnap further recalled yesterday
that Smith threatened DR.. Pike at the
time he received his sentence. Dr.
Pike had testified that in his Judgment
the prisoner was sane and when the
latter passed the doctor at the time
sentence was pronounced Smith said:

human body that illustrates the interior
of the human frame, on which he points
out the various organs and demon
