VOTERS
MUST REGISTER IN ORDER TO
QUALIFY AS ElEC-
TORS.
Board Of Registration Began Its Ses-
sions This Morning in the Building
Next to the City HaII-More Than
One Hundred Names Taken Up to
8 O'clock This Afternoon.

The registration of voters is in prog,
ress today and at 3 O'Clock 10S per
sons had been registered. The board,
consisting of Corlett Downey and IT..
Dayton, is sitting in the room usual.
ly occupied by Judge Hayford in the
building adjoining the city hall. The
board will be in session five days,
counting today as one. The hours are
from 8 to l o'clock; from 2 to 6 o'clock
and from I to 8 o'clock.
From the way the registration is
starting in, there appears to be the re-
quisite amount of interest in this pre-
liminary to voting but the citizens
should not put off this duty till the last
days. 1t is expected that the e stra-
ton will be nearly five hundred larg-
err than it was last year and there is
likely to be a rush during the closing
days of this sitting of the board.
Everybody Must Register
1t should not be forgotten thai every
person qualified to vote must first reg,
lister. Having registered before makes
no difference. The law requires a new
registration in order to qualify to vote
in the coming election.
Every prospective voter much be a
full citizen of the United States, must

able to read the constitution of the
United States, must have been a resi-

the county for sixty days. Only two
exceptions to these regulations are
permitted. If a person has been absent
on account of sickness he may have
his vote sworn in on election day, the
oaths of two qualified voters being re-
Quired. Persons who were qualified
voters on July 10, 1900, will be permit
ted to register without having to give

Nine-Foot Body Of Ore Uncovered Re.

Build a Tramway.

A good body of ore has been struck
in the Annie mine and preparations
are making now to develop the proper
ty as rapidly as possible. The iron
and other material has been shipped
out for the construction of a tramway
through the tunnel and the operators
feel that they are now about to be
successful in their efforts to make a
mine of the property.
The property is located on Jelm
mountain, one mile east of Cummins
City, on the Big Laramie. 1t is owned
by Judge Bramel, W. S. Bramel and
Lou Miller. They have had it a year
and within that time have accomplish
ed a great deal by steadily working
away at the prospect. The vein on the
surface showed about 20 feet. A shaft
was sunk "a feet deep. Then a tunnel
was run from the side of the hill. For
about fifteen feet the tunnel was in
the vein and then the vein was lost.
After the tunnel had been run a dis
lance of 11S feet, a cross cut "a start

There a few days ago the vein was I'M
covered. 1t is nine feet thick at that
point and runs about s27 in gold, cop

Little has been heard heretofore
about this property, but the owners
have quietly gone on with their mining,
preferring to let the results, which
they felt certain Of, tell the value of
the mine in good time.

MRS. DEwEY'> RELIGION.

l, appears that Mrs Dewey has
been in the habit of changing her
religion. She was born and brought
up in the Presbyterian CHURCH and
remained member of that com
munion until after the death of her
first husband, Gen. Hazen. Then
she joined the Episcopal church,
and belonged to ST Johns parish.
Next she became interested in theo-
sophy and joined society for the
study of occult science, until con
verted TO Catholicism through the
influence of Mrs. Bellamy Storer,
the wife of our minister to Spain,
and Archbishop Keane, while the
latter was director of the Catholic
university at Washington. She has
since been a communicate at st
Paups Catholic church and was
married by Father Mackin, its
pastor. When the term for which
she had rented her pew at St Paups
church expired last month, Father
Mackin called upon her and found
that she was undergoing a change of
heart. He endeavored to persuade
her TO adhere TO the faith, but she
gave him little encouragement, and
did not renew the rental of her pew.
Nobody observed her absence from
St Paul's, or at least it attracted no
comment until few days ago, when
it was noticed that she was attend
ing the Lenten lectures at St. Johns
Episcopal church with her husband,
where he is a member of the vestry.
In answer 20 inquiries Mrs. Dewey
informed her friends that she had
decided to return to the Episcopal
faith, and recently she was elected
one of the patronesses of the
Episcopal cathedral foundation, of
which Mrs. Phoebe a. Hearst is
president Mrs. Dewey declines to
discuss the subject and the admiral
frankly informs the public that his
wife's religion is nobody's business.

Widely affected by a Decision OF the
Supreme Court-May act to Drive
Some Ont OF Business.

The Supreme Court has handed
down an opinion in a building and
loan association case, the effect Of
which. would seem TO be to drive
out of business those associations
which loan money and collect
premium on the loan without stipu-
laiing, when the loan is made, the
number of payments TO be required
The opinion was rendered in the
case of Gray against the Baltimore
Building and Loan Association.
The appeal court in way reverses
The decision rendered. about year
ago. in the case of Archer against
the same association. In the Arch
err case it held that the statute
allowed building and loan associa-
lions to charge a premium on the
loans made to members without say
ing anything as to what amount
could be collected in premiums, the
effect of which was that Mrs. Arch
er had To pay the premiums required
by the bylaws of the association.
In the opinion handed down by
Judge Dent, the court holds that
while the statute allows premiums
on loans to be collected, the amount
of such premiums must be fixed and
definite, either paid in lump sum
when the loan is made or by stipu-
lated number of monthly or weekly
installments. In other words, there
must be definite contract between
the borrower and lender as to the
amount of the premium and the
number of premiums to be paid.

way HE CHANGED HIS MIND.

"When it became apparent that
money had to be raised some way
the President recognized the right
of Congress to pass the Porto Rico
tariff bill This is the explanation
which Congressman Grosvenor
made to the red hot questions fired
at him by Democrats, on the floor
of the House, the other day, as to
why the President had changed his
mind on the Porto Rico tariff ques-
ton. He came nearer telling the
truth in this answer than he in
tended But he was so confused
by the predicament in which he was
placed that the truth came out unin-
tentionally. 'When it became
necessary to raise money" for the
Republican campaign, the President
recognized The right Of Congress to
violate plain duty" and impose
the tariff and raise money through
the generosity Of the trusts, which
viii receive the direct benefits from
the tarif.-Charleston Gazette.

The National American Woman
Suffrage Association is making pre-
partitions for grand suffrage
Bazaar, to be held in Madison
Square Garden, New York, opening
Monday December Srd and con
tnuing throughout the week.

tention to have great variety of
articles and in quantities to supply
all kinds of purchasers for the whole
six days.
The object is to secure a large
fund for doing National work and it
is desired that the suffragists in all
States in the Union shall contribute
their time and talent to this common
effort and when the receipts have
been secured every State, through
its representative in the National
Convention, shall have a vote as to
how the money shall be expended.
Madison Square Garden is one of
the best known buildings in New
York City. The famous Horse
Fair has been held there for a num-
Der of years. No building in the
United States could be better
adapted TO the use o! bazaar.
Every conceivable kind of useful
and ornamental article, from pota-
toes or dish-rag to beautiful works
of art will be. gladly received. In
fact, the management announces
that if there is anything from a silk
dress to house and lot which any
one is willing to contribute, or
anyone wishes to purchase, to let
them know.
