THE HoOs1ER CONVERT.
TO THE DOCTRINES OF MORMON
ISM.

J~effersonville, Ind, Nov. 2S.-As a re-
suit of the Mormon crusade, Miss Daisy
Bottorff has united with the church, and
has left for Salt Lake City to make that
her future home. When a small child,
Miss Bottorff's mother, who was a widow,
married a ship carpenter named Nash,
who belonged to no denomination. Mrs.
Nash and her daughter were Methodists
and attended church regularly. Last
winter Mrs. Nash died and her husband
became converted to Mormonism, being
the first CONVEX in this city. Early in
the spring he was baptized in the Ohio
river, while the ice was still floating. He
then set about to change the views of
Miss Bottorff, who at last consented to
attend one of the meetings presided over
by Elders Packard and Maybe, two young
missionaries who had located here.
Their persuasive talk had it's effect, and
Miss Bottorff cast aside Methodism for
Mormonism, and was also baptized in the
river. She forsook all her former COM
panions, and was a prominent worker
at the streer-corner services. Her STEP
father again changed his religious views,
.renounced the church n said it had
been the ruin of Miss Bottorff. He be-
came so bitter hat he at last decided to
leave Jeffersonville. and some time e

New York. Nov. 2S.-"He took'our girls
away from us. He Rugged them n he

married to us, but he alienated their af-
lection, although he is a married man
and a minister of the gospel"
This is the charge that Charles House,

has a clean record. His eccentricities
nave been more marked since his expert

In the summer of 1897 Mr.. Hanna was
pastor of the Plantsville, Comm, Baptist
church. He met with an accident while

THE SENATOR FEMINIST THE COLONEL

The attitude of the Butte Miner this
morning leaves 40 doubt as to the opposi-
ton of enato Clark and his Montana
following to the denomination of Colonel
Bryan. This opposition is not based upon
the valient military service which BRYAN
rendered his country, by resigning his
commission as colonel to take up arms for
Agllinaldo in the most remarkable dollar
dinner campaign of the century. The
truth is, the Miner does not make the
feason for its opposition to Bryan's NOM
nation as clear and lucid as it did it's
opinion of Whiteside's ability as a states
man. However, it criticises the state
ment that the movement against Bryan in
democratic circles is a conspiracy. IT
shows that a conspiracy is an arrange
ment to effect an evil purpose, while the
movement to defeat Bryan admits of no
such Interpretation.

the Miner. many would have looked upon
It as whitening sarcasm. But the Miner
is always in earnest. Unlike the Ana

Ions into a masque bawl. Anent the at

VICTIMS OF T~RICHINOSIS.

The sale of diseased pork in San Fran
cisco is being investigated by the Off
Gals of the board of health and arrests
will follow. The investigation was
prompted by two cases of trichinosis at
the city and county hospital. One VIC
tim of the diseased meat is a white man
and the other a Japanese. Both ate
pork at h same restaurant, ana, it is
thought, contracted the disease there.
Charles Joy, the white man. Was ad-
mitted to the hospital on November 5.
He is now able to walk about, but suf-
fers intense pains, especially in the re-
gion of the stomach. Y. Amonoma, the
Japanese, was not admitted to the hos
pital until November IL. The disease
a not progressed as far in his case
as in Joys, and he does not suffer as
great pain. He was employed at the
restaurant at 443 Broadway for three
weeks, and say he often ate pork at his
meals. Joy frequently took his dinner
at that restaurant. which is kept by
Japanese. Joy resides at 81 Harriet
street, and was last employed as a
driver of a coal wagon. His family lives
in the northern part Of the state.

7AMMANYFOR Y

Mr.. Richard Croker, the leader of the
Tammany ring. has again expressed HIM
self in favor of the nomination of Mr..
Bryan next year. He says in part:
The fight will be against trusts and i'm
perialism, and Mr.. Bryan is the only man
TO lead such a fight. Tamnlany Hall will
give him it's heartiest support, you may
rest assured of that.
1t will be observed that MIR. Croker says
nothing about waging war on the gold
standard. Like the new campaign buttons,
which was so warmly approved by the
lets the silver question severely alone.
40 one who is not a three-ply idiot can
doubt the significance of such omissions.
In announcing that the aggregation Of
municipal p%eculators known as Tammany
Hall will accord their heartiest support to
Mr.. Bryan, the odoriferous Croker does
understanding with the Nebraska states
man. 1t was only a few months ago that
the Tammany leader came out positively
and emphatically against the free coinage
of silver, and declared it would not be an
issue in 1900. He showed his teeth to Mr..
Bryan and growled ominously. Imme-
diately thereafter MI. Bryan went about
the country announcing that anti-imper-
ialism would be the paramount issue Of
1900, instead of reviving the
issue of 1896.
With Mr.. Bryan thoroughly committed
to the plan Of placing the silver question
in the background, MI. Croker, feeling
that he had scored his point, announced
'himsel in favor of the colonel. The thor
oughness of his victory over the Ne
braska man can be seen in the total omis-
sion of silver, when he outlines the great
issues upon which the campaign of 1900
will be fought. Mr.. Croker speaks with
definiteness, only when he knows his
cratic campaign issues for next year. and
backs up that announcement with the
pledge that Tammany will stand by Mr.,
Bryan, he does so with the knowledge
that the prospective candidate has sub
scribed to his political terms,
The Tammany chieftain has never
Withdrawn his opposition to the free coin
age Of silver, or taken back one syllable
uttered by him in condemnation of that
financial policy, And he has pledged him
self and his following to Mr.. Bryan only
With the understanding that he will have
nothing to fear from any serious agita-
ton in behalf of free coinage in demo-
cratic circles. With Croker and BRYAN
of one mind on this proposition. the "sil-
YER democrats and the gold democrats
of 1896 will line up boulder to shoulder
for the campaign of 1900, fighting as va
lieiitly against imperialism as did Don

at the head of the ticket. the Miner says:
But it is to be demonstrated that the
right to the honor belongs to William j.
Bryan before men who are just as good
democrats as he are debarred from asplr-
ing to the nomination for the presidency.

every four years.
Had not Senator Clark persuaded him.
self that democratic sentiment in the
United States senate is against Colonel
Bryan's nomination. it is not likely that
his personal organ in this city would have
expressed itself in the foregoing Ian
guage. With a "feudal right" of his own
in issue it is not likely that he would have
permitted his newspaper vehicle to ruth
lessly toy with Bryan's "feudal right y.
had he not been reasonably sure of his
ground. In defense of it's position that
Bryan is not entitled to a lead-pipe cinch
on the nomination the Mine says:
The democratic party has never made
the rule that it's highest honor belonged
to a man who had run once and lost. LII 1T
had then Samuel ]. Tilden instead of w.
S. Hancock would have been the candi-
date in 1880.
In this argument. the Miner is historic
cally lame. Cleveland was taken up in
1892 and nominated, after his disastrous
defeat in 1888. He was too good a thing
to lose. and the democrats wanted a

We all will be in clover,
With four more years of Grover.
Though the clover turned out to be
nothing but pusley and Canada thistles,
the precedent still stands. In 1880, every
effort was made to induce Tilden to ac-
cept a denomination. Prominent demo-
Gratis begged him to reconsider his
~declination to run. and it was only after
fusal to accept the honor under any cir
cumstances, that the national convention
in session at Cincinnati could be disuaded
from forcing the nomination upon him..
Unlike Mr.. Bryan, Mr.. Tilden was sufi-
GENTLY astute to know when he had had
enough.
Historically, there is no argument
against the denomination Of Bryan, ex-
cept the fact that Tammany is pledged
to him. Tammany fought Cleveland in
1884, and he was nominated and elected.
1t out-TIeroded Eerod in yelling for his
unanimous nomination IN 1888, and Cleve-
land was turned down at the polls. In
1892 it again opposed his nomination, and
was again nominated and
again elected. If precedents count, Tam
