any other. A writer in the New Haven
Register shows that during the last
three years the number of suicides oc-
curing among physicians has been, re-
spectively, As, 40 and AZ per annum, an
average of nearly to 1000; or, as the
death rate among the physicians is
about % to 1000, nearly one-fiftieth Of
all the deaths in the profession have
been by suicide. 1t has been suggested
that an explanation of this tendency
may be found in the development of
morbid fancies in the mind of a DOCTOR
on account of his constant association
with the sick and dying, or because he
has the requisite knowledge of how to
die painlessly and conveniently. A
medical journal dissents from these
views and holds that the leading factor
is the accessibility to the poisonous
drugs which are almost invariably

round. Mr.. Sharkey will retaliate with
some reference to that conceited
boilermaker, Jeffries." Next there will
be a rapid exchange of such express
sions as ass, idiot, chump, liar, fraud,
fake, nuisance. blowhard, windbag and
the like. Profanity will be called upon
to lend additional force and point to
the remarks of each. That is to say,
such will be Mr.. Jeffries' progress in

started in bandying epithets with
Sharkey and the rest. The vocabulary
of pugilism is peculiar, varied and ex-
tensive. Mr. Jeffries has shown him
self deficient in it so far-that part of
his education has been neglected. But
evidently his activities are not exclu-
sively physical and he will be quick to
catch on.

Lame Defense of the Trusts.

From the Grand Rapids Democrat.
Editorial utterances in imperial re-
publican organs indicate that the de-
Tense of the trusts in the campaign of
next year will be the cry of ''repudia-
tom or "conffscation." They will try
to make it appear that antitrust leg
islaton means confiscation of property
and reputation of debts. In other
words, they will claim that the water
in trust stocks is sacred and must not
be squeezed out.

renders his separation from his
wife a theme of wide comment
There is to be no divorce and the case
is untainted by vulgar wrong-doing
Bishop Hurst is one of the ablest men
in the Methodist church, intent on his
work in connection with the American
university, of which he is chancellor
and finding his chief enjoyment in as
sociating with men of similar character
Mrs. Hurst, not much more than half
the bishops age, has a taste for society
and amusements in which he takes no
interest. 1t is difficult for those who
have seen the bishop and his wife to be-
lieve ill of either, and fortunately moth
ing ill is charged or suspected. The
bishop makes over to her the beautiful
Washington home which the brides
mother presented to them when they
were married. This generous mother,
an ardent Methodist, was so proud Of
her daughters marriage a few years
ago to so eminent a preacher and edu-
Gator that she at the same time gave
800, 900 to the American university and
$4,000 to the bishop himself. Mrs. Hurst
has an independent income of $50, 900
per year. 1t has been suggested that
possibly money matters figure in the
estrangement.

the congregation listened and looked
breathlessly, he stood mute and mo-
tionless. At length he began again,
but it was along a very different line of
thought He said: "The Latter-day
Saints are devoted to the country and
to the constitution. The constitution
is q sacred record, written by inspired
men. 1t has been made manifest on
all occasions when our country has
needed us that the Latter-day Saints
are ready to lay down their lives in
defense of the flag and of the constitu-
ton. We are a iberty-loving people
and we respect the government.
But we can labor and wait. We know
that intelligence must rule in the end.
Mob violence and mob rule is distress
ing, but the rule of q government of in
telligence is what we desire. We favor
good government. We give our chill
dren the best education we can, for we
want them to be taught the truth"
CRITICISED MOODY.
Apostle Teasdale spoke somewhat
strongly concerning the doctrines
preached by Evangelist Moody. "They
say that these ordinances are not nee
essary," said he. Il tell you there are on
the earth many anti-Christs, but one
Christ. Anti-Christ says these ordi-

they are essential. And they have to
be administered by the proper author
ity. If We expect to enjoy eternal life
we must accept these ordinances"
In concluding Apostle TeasdaIe spoke
at some length of the benefits of a
well-spent life as exemplified in those
of Presidents Smith, Young, Taylor and
Woodruff.
The choir and congregation sang the
d, N1I t., -%a.,s
Way" and after the benediction had
been pronounced by Elder B. II. Rob-
erts the conference adjourned until 2

BILLY SMITH BACKS DOWN
REFUSES TO MEET GEORGE
GREEN IN FRISCO.
Gave the Excuse That There Was Not
Enough Money In the House-A
Wretched Fiasco.'

San Francisco, Cal.,s April THE
much-discussed fight between George
Green and mysterious" Billy Smith
resulted in a wretched fiasco. After an
| intermediate wait, the 1000 people who
| had come to Woodward's gardens ex-
| pecting to witness a contest were
obliged to defer that experience, and all
| that they received from the National
| club under whose auspices the contest
was to have taken place, was an eX-
change of coupons, the new pasteboard
e1titling the Loldc1. to admission to
the next fight" under the same man
| agement, or, if too vigorous protest
was made, the moneyNwas returned TO
the disgusted patrons.
AT $40 p. m. Green came into the
ring, after a long delay. Smith did not
appear, however. and it was announced
! that Smith refused to go on because
there was not sufficient money in the
house to warrant a contest. He de-
manded a guarantee of S2,500, whereas
the total receipts were given as 81, 400.
Green came into the ring prepared to
fight, and stated to the crowd that he
should demand his part of the purse.
! When the announcement was made
that there would not be a fight and
| tickets would be given to all those
present emitting them to admission to
the next fight by the National club,
there was a wild uproar by the $500
people present.
Hoots and yells greeted Smiths name,
and when finally that eccentric pugilist
came into the ring to make a statement
he was met by all sorts of jeers and
cat-calIs, such as coward, 'quitter.
You're a. dead one," and other uncom-
plimentary things. Finally Captain
Gillen, in charge of the police, demand
ed that Smith be heard. Smith simply
stated that there was not enough
money in the house and consequently
he would not go on. He then left the
ring in his street clothes and went out
of the building.

President Joseph F. Smith began very
mildly, speaking of the divine mission
of Joseph Smith. But presently he
changed the course of his address
abruptly.
There is one thing which I want to
speak of right here" he began. "There
have been many efforts recently to
bring reproach on Zion, but they have
! been in every case unWittingly Of ad-
vantage to the cause of Zion. They
are bringing good where they thought
to bring evil. 1 refer to what has been
said and is being said because a mem
Der of the church has aspired to po-
Gtical honorS and has reached the goal
to which he has aspired, by the votes
OF the people. They seek to make the
church responsible for the election of
one of its members to an office of honor
in the house of representatives of the
United States congress. Let me say to
this ongregation-and l think l will
be borne out by the brethren in what !
say-that Brother Roberts was not and
never was the candidate of the Church
Of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
The church never had anything to do
with his election, save in this, that
members of this church, exercising
their right of suffrage as American
| citizens, cast their votes for him.
MISERABLE SCOUNDRELS.
"These miserable scoundrels are try
ing to blacken the character of the
church by their lying charges, with the
aim and end to make it appear that
the church, as a church, is responsible
for the election of Brother Roberts.
They are trying to bring odium on the
church by this means. 1 tell you, and
tell them, that it is not true. Brother
Roberts was the candidate of his own
party; he was elected by his own party,
and the church had nothing to do with
it any more than it had to do with the
election Of a representative from New
York City. The people have divided
into political parties and vote accord
ing to their predictions, and l know
that the facts will bear me out when l
say that the church is not responsible
for the acts Of either of the political
parties in any shape or form. If we
were, we would stop this bitterness and
animosity. We would have peace in
the ranks. 1t is proof positive, that this
wrangling is going on, that we have
nothing to do with either party. If we
did, we would put a>stop to it. But
think I have said enough along these
lines and you all understand it now
Then President Smith went on to talk
on questions of less vital interest, urg-
ing the people to sustain and uphold
z. c. NJ. l., and presently he con-
cluded.
A hum of conversation came from all
over the congregation, for every one
was discussing the words of President
Smith on the Roberts case.
President George Q. Cannon caused a
hush to come over the throng by an
nounced the closing hymn, we Thank
You, oh, God, for Prophet" and after
the hymn the benediction was pro-
nounced by Elder George Reynolds and
the conference adjourned until 10
o'clock Sunday morning.

Receiver For the Boston & Montana
Mining Properties.
lspecial to The Herald.

Butte, None, April THE supreme
court today practically declined to in
terfere in the attempt to prevent
Thomas II. Kinds, as receiver. to take
possession of the Boston & Montana
mining properties, and Judge Clancy
of the district court has issued a writ
of assistance on the sheriff. directing
him to place Kinds in possession. The
properties are all closed down and bar
ricaded and guarded by many armed
employees, who are instructed to resist
all efforts of the receiver and the
wreckers of the company to get pos
session.
The sheriff tonight, in anticipation of
serious trouble, purchased a number of
rifles for his deputies and, if ordered by
the court, will attempt to oust the re-
ceiver in possession of the properties.
George A. Blodgett, a detective in the
employ of the Boston & Montana, was
arrested this evening for perjury. He
made an affidavit that he had seen
Judge Clancy hold secret meetings
with the Heinz crowd, who had the re-

Cheyenne, Wyo., April 7.-Floods are
already causing trouble in Wyoming.
IT is feared that the big railroad bridge
of the Cheyenne & Northern which
spans the North Platte at Orin juno
ton. $50 miles north of this place. will
be carried away by the ice and water,
which now reach to the ties. A large
quantity of dynamite and powder was
sent north this morning, with the hope
that the ice can be broken up before
the bridge is damaged.
Numerous washouts have occurred on
the Union Pacific between Laramie and
Green River, and water now covers the
track in many places. Several county
road bridges in southeastern Wyoming
have suffered from the high water and
many will be carried away
