TO MEET HER BUTTE LOVER.
PRETTY MAUD CHESHIRE
LEAVES PARENTAL ROOF.
Declared It Was Her Intention to Go
to the Copper City to Get
Married.


Pretty Maud Cheshire, Is years old
left her parents home on Eighth East
yesterday noon with the avowed inten-
ton of going to Butte and getting mar
ried, and she has not been seen or heard
of since, in spite of diligent search on
the part of her father and friends.
There is a romance connected with
Maud's young life. and those who know
her temperament say she will carry out
her threat if it is the last act of her
life. Her father, on the other hand, is
determined to stop his hayward child
but up to an early hour this morning
Maud certainly had the upper hand
Until quite recently Maud was en-
ployed in house in the southern part
of town, but, since leaving there she
has given her parents considerable anX-
iety by staying away or threatening to
stay away from home, all because she
is in love and has a childish notion that
married life is absolutely necessary tc
her existence. The girl met a very at
tractfve young man. named German
from Butte, some time ago, and during
his stay here, everything was serene
But a parting came. When he went
home Maud grew lovelorn. and so has
she. since continued. On several occa
sions Maud's father has found his child
in a very rebellious mood. and tenn
pesct has invariably resulted.
Yesterday the crisis came. Maud told
her parents at noon that she was going
north to get married-that her lover
had all the Indispensable necessaries
including the minister's fee, and was
patiently awaiting. her arrival. She
was gone in a, flash, and, as stated
search has failed to reveal her where
abouts. A lookout at the depot last
night discovered naught, and the belize
is that the girl is hiding in Salt Lake
until a favorable opportunity to fly pre-
sents itself.

Central Christian Pastor Nsither Re.
publican Nor Democrat.
The following was received yesterday
from Rev. w. H. Bagby, pastor Of the
Central Christian church:
With reference to the statement that
majority of those who are supporting the
movement for Congressman Roberts ex-
pulslon are Democrats, Mr.. Steeiman
stated that. so far as he knew but one
member of the Ministerial association was
Democrat, Mr.. Bagby of the Central
Christian church, who IS a southerner. If
there were any Democrats in the state
who were demanding Mr.. Roberts expul-
sion, Mr.. Steelman did not know their
names.
One or two statements in the above
need revision. By accident of birth l
am native of the fundamentally loyal
state of Missouri. BY exercise of the
liberty of thought and action guaran-
teed to ali its citizens by the general
government, l have from my youth up,
and shall always remain, absolutely in
dependent of all political parties. 1t
has never yet been my good fortune to
see a straight ticket that was not
altogether too crooked" for me to vote
without scratching" l have always
voted and shall always continue to
vote for men and measures, regardless
of party lines. The name of no politi-
cal party appeals to me in the least. 1
go below the label for the basis of my
cooperation with any party Although
I was a citizen of d southern state at
the time, my first vote was cast for
James y. Garfield. My last was cast
for w. ]. Bryan. The intermediate
ones were cast for Prohibition LADDERS.
My next, if 1 live TO record it, shall be
cast for George a. Dewey, if he gets
in a position for me to express my high
regard for him as a leader and states
man in that way. If / We're either a

YOUNG THOMAS KNOCKED OUT
EUREKA BOY MEETS MATCH IN
WILLIAMS.
Fight Was a Good One, Thomas
Being Put Out In Eighth Round
Betting Heavy.
CIV Telephone to The Herald.)


Eureka, oct 1S.--NeaTly the entire
sporting population of the city, and
many people from outside towns of the
district turned out this evening 10 Wit
ness the twenty-round bout between
Young Thomas OF Eureka and Charlie
Williams. williams knocked out Thom-
as in the eighth round, in one OF the
aercest fights ever seen here.
TWO or three very interesting pre-
urinary bouts preceded the main event.
1t was about il o'clock when the prln-
cipal contestants entered the ring. Both
were i'm the best of condition and were
loudly cheered by the audience. The
referee. Win Holmes, stepped to the
front and stated that he would not toll
crate ANYTHING approaching fake
fight. This statement was loudly cheer
ed. The referee then introduced the
men and time was called.
The scrop began in earnest as soon as
the gong sounded. For the first round
Thomas seemed to be quite clever, ana
both men got in good work. The sec
ond round was a redhot smuggling match
and before time was called Williams
had drawn blood from his opponents
face.
Thomas came UP first in the third
eound and stood his ground well, as he
did in the three succeeding rounds. He
received some very severe punishment.
In the seventh-round very few blows
We're exchanged. .s --.-.
Thomas came up in the eighth and
made a good stand. although it could be
easily seen that Williams had the best
of it, Then Williams landed a fearful
left swing. which struck Thomas on the
chin He sank to the floor and was I'M
able To rise.
Thomas did not revive until taken to
the dressing room. Those present seem
cd to be satisfied with the mill, and
went away knowing they had got their
moneys worth. A purse of $500 and the
gate receipts were turned over to Will
li9ms' hackers.
Considerable money changed hands
at even odds. Thomas was the favor
lite, as he is a local boy, but even money
was put up on the men. as they were

Author of Roberts Letter Explains
to Ministers.
REFERRED TO THE SOUTH
THOUGHT soUTHERNERs WERE
OPPOSED TO CONGRESSMAN.
And Believed That a Majority of
Those Who Would Favor His Ex-
pulsion In That Section Were
Democrats-His Explanation Sat-
isfactory to the Ministers.


At yesterdays meeting of the Salt
Lake Ministerial association, Rev W.
R. Campbell, the corresponding Sec
rotary, asked permission to make an
explanation in regard to the letter sent
out over the country by him with the
one sent by order of the Ministerial as
sociation. In this letter, as stated yes
terday, Mr.. Campbell declared that "a
large percentage, if not majority of
the stanchest supporters of the move
ment to eXpel Congressman Roberts
belong to the Democratic party
In his explanation to the ministers
Mr.. Campbell pointed out that in his
statement that the majority of those
who oppose Mr.. Roberts belong to the
Democratic party, he had in mind the
people of the south who, he said, are
the bitterest enemies Of the congress
man.
Whether he stated in direct language
that he regarded the recent outbreaks
and mobbing of Mormon missionaries
as part of the movement to Gust Rob-
erts. or whether he had any other
evidence of southern hostility to the
congressman was not learned. He
claimed, however, that the south was
opposed to polygany, and believed that
majority of the people in that sec
ton who oppose Mr.. Roberts are Dem
ocrats
Explanation Was Satisfactory.
1t is stated that MIR. Campbelps ex-
PLANTATION of the matter was satisfac-
tory to the members CT the associa-
ton, some of whom stated that they
had known of the Campbell letter at
the time it was sent.
A, further explanation of the matter
was offered yesterday by another
member, who stated that but for the
liberty taken by the San Francisco
Examiner when the letters were quoted,
the association would not have been
held responsible for Mr.. Campbelfs
personal expression of opinion. 1t ap-
pears that in preparing the article the
Examiner used parts CT both letters,
giving the Ministerial association
credit for all that was sent out by its
secretary.
Discussed Amusements.
During the session of the Ministerial
association. Rev. F. H. Arnold dis
cussed Objectionable Amusements.
He took the stand that in regard to
these matters, yCung people could be
dealt with more successfully in a per-
sonal or pastoral way He disapproved
the plan of laying down hard and fast
rules, and said that more good could
be accomplished with young men by
making a personal appeal The paper
was discussed quite fully. Professor
Brown and Rev. Bagley leading.

FLOUR MAY GO HIGHER.
Poor Crop of Wheat the Cause-New
Mill Ready.

There is & strong probability of the
recent advance OF 10 cents a hundred
on flour being repeased. Millers ascribe
the cause for another likely raise to the
fact that the Utah wheat crop is so
poor that good milling grain win COM
mand higher figures than now paid.
The lack of rain last spring and sum-
mer made dry farmed wheat too i'm
mature for grinding, and the August
frosts damaged other fields so much
that millers have a short harvest of
good grain to depend upon.
Since July the Intermountain Milling
company's Husler mill has been closed
down rebuilding. New machinery Of
the latest approved designs has been
installed and now ii is claimed to be
the best equipped plant in the state
Its capacity is from 125 to $50 barrels
of -four daily. Next Monday the new
mill will start up.
