POLYGAMIST
ROBERTS
Seems Doomed to Lose H is
Seat in Congress.
El PASO MINISTERS
Are in Favor of Unseating Him and
Miss Helen Gould and Her Asso-
ciates Continue to Make War on
the Mormon.

Brig ham 81. Roberts, the Utah poly
gamist, seems doomed to lose his seat
in congress. Miss Helen Gould, the
recognized leader of the movement to
following letter to Adjutant-General
Miller, of the Spanish War Veterans:
ST the matter commends itself to
your good judgment and you have not
already taken an interest in the Rob-
erts question l hope you may feel
willing to do so. Mr.. Roberts, it
seems, has at least three wives, and
advocating and practicing the prin-
ciple he does, he should not, women
think, be allowed to have q seat in the
highest law making body OF our land.
1--WE realize that what We think can
not carry the weight with congress-
men that communications from voters
would have, and we earnestly hope
tbst men who sympathize with tie
movement will be willing to write to
their congressman or circulate petit
tions.
81 have never before taken any &C.
tive part in any political question, but
this movement is for the protection OF
the home and of women throughout
the country, and l am glad to use the
little influence l have for what l be-
lieve to be righteous cause. 1 trust
you will pardon me for troubling you,
but you soldiers have been SO good to
me, I am venturipg to call your atten-
ton to . matter that interests me
deeply. Enclosed you will find some
leaflets on the subject issued by the
League for Social Service. Very truly,

REVIVAL SERVICE.
Pastor Vaughn Talks of the Moral
Uplifting of Thought.

There was fairly good attendance at
the revival service at the Seventh street
Methodist Church last night, Rev. w.
E. Vaughn taking for his subject the
moral uplifting Of thought
The minister told his audience that the
world knew thems regardless of what
they might think to the contrary; that
as man thinks so he is and that his
thoughts, if evil, would betray him. He
pleaded for higher standard of
thought, standard which would lead
the people nearer to Jesus and away
from the follies of the world, and
which would bring them to more fully
understand and appreciate the teach
ings of the Bible.
To-night's meeting will be for children
as well as adults, and the pastor hopes
to see the church crowded.

Rosenthal. the wizard of the key
board, did not have full house at the
Clunie last night. but it was, if limited
TO about go or 300, a thoroughly appre
ciative congregation, composed mainly
OF people who have more or less culti-
waited music taste, and some of highly
critical character and capacity. The
Saturday Club, purely a music culture
promoting club, had $50 seats in the
house, and this insured one body of
hearers who are accustomed to study
and criticise music methods. The au-
dience was enthusiastic. It Endorsed
Posenthal by applause. not only gener-
Gus, but emotional and continued, and
which finally overcame his dislike to re-
sponses to encores. sc that they had two
special or call numbers, in addition to
nine regular ones. Rosenthal is scarcely
TO be compared with other solo pianists;
ne differs SC widely from all others. He
is masterful and brilliant player, no.
table for his force or power and enor-
nous reservoir of strength upon which
to draw. In execution he is unequaled
for raridity, but he does not on that ac-
count at all distort his themes. A Pc
culiarity CT his method is the manage
ment of crescendo effects Under his
hands they seem to sweep up as stead
lily and irresistibly and majestically as
the waves CT the sea- We cannot recall
any artist who produces such effects
equal TO Rcsenthal's The vigor and
precision of attack are notably Rosen-
tina! features. He has been called the
grand master of technique he Isl GER
tainly entitled TO the distinction, for his
immense speed, rapidity of action and
splendid precision or exactness of at
tack, which in no instance tended to
relaxation of the care for technique and
careful working out of detail. We
should say that RosenthaPs paaying is
Intellectual more than it is spiritual, or
from within. Not that it is not effective
in feeling, but the nearer concludes
that it is more brilliant than sensitive
or emotional. He interprets with the
V'eor ana yet the delicacy that in lit
eraturo makes Interpretation rise al
most level with creation. His force is
u that assertive character that COM
mands respect. 1t is not represented by
mere volume of sound, but by a splen-
did refinement of vigor manifest in
great waves of melody, or in such deli
cate and laee-like weaving of The
threads of harmony that the strained
ear is almost panied in following them.

hrlAiant OF exeeutants we have had

FRIENDLY RELATIONS ESTABLISHED
Reciprocal Acts of Good Will Between
China and Japan.

In diplomatic quarters concerned with the
affairs Of China and Japan it is said that
the old Ill feeling between the two coun-
tries, dating long before the war and made
more acute by that struggle, recently has
significant courtesies exchanged between
the Emperor of China and the Emperor of
Japan. The latter was the first to extend
the olive branch, by comforting on the EN-
peror of China the decoration of the highest
order in Japan. This was conveyed to Pc
kin with great ceremony, and recently the
Emperor of China has returned the COM
pliment by decorating the Emperor of ia
pan with the highest order of China. A
similar spirit was shown the death Of
the field marshal of the Japanese army a
