He was removed from his cell at 12:iO a. m. and led to the scaf- fofh At 12:12 the drop fell and in seven and one-half minutes the physicians pro- nouneed him dead, when his body was cut down.
 Keith confessed that he committed the crime He had the prison chamberlain with him from 8 o'clock yesterday even ing to the time he was removed rom the cell. He ascended the scaffold sing. ing, T am Going Home to Die no More; and finished the song before the drop Tell

MoRNoNIsM SPREADING.
Miss vermyle Says Its Growth IS
 Alarming.


 New York, Nov. H-"Fhe danger of Normonism is underrated, not overrateo. When the public realizes that there are two Mormon churches Tn Brooklyn, one in Manhattan, one in Philsdelphia, strong and growing Mormon settienen on the borders of Pennsylvania ana New Jersey. and that the strongest Tn sec tion a few miles from Jersey City Is MOT mon, it may be understood that the sit- uation is menacing.
 This statement which startled the We mans Executive Committee of the dif- ferent missions of the Reformed Church at it's eighteenth anniversary in this city was made ny Miss Elizabeth s. VerInyle A member of the committee in an address upon Mormonism in the East. She said further: ~
 Tt was predicted that in fifty. years the Mormons would control a belt or States. cutting the country in two from the northeast to southwest. The predic- ton has been verified in twenty years in . stead of fifty. They own land from the Rocky Mountains to the Sierras and are spreading East as I have told you They control four Western States and at their present rate of progress in a short mum Der of years will have supremacy.
 If the constitutional amendment mak- ing polygany crime Is not passed now, it soon will be impossible to pass it, as they need to acquire control only oe twelve States to prevent legislation against it. Two thousand Mormon mis- sionaries are actively pursuing their pro- paganda work, sixty of them in the state of New York alone"

THE BIG MILL TONIGHT
yEFFRIEs AND RUHLrN TO
 MEET IN FRISCO.
The Champion is Still the Heavy Faverite in the Betting, But Ruhlin's Admirers Express
 Great Confidence.

San Francisco, Nov. H.-With the Jef- fries- Ruhlin championship battle. but Gwanty-four hours of, public interest IS keyed up to high pitch. All day long enthusiasts have been fiocking into the city from near and far. It is evident at this time that Mechanics Pavilion will be taxed to it's utmost capacity and this means that lo,oo men will witness the fight.
 A group of olergymen have been striv- ine all day to induce the officers of the law to step the mill, but they have re- ceived no encouragement. Tonight they paid their respects to Mayor James D. Phelan and there received the same information which was imparted to them by the District Attorney and Chief of Detective Seymour. They were apprised of the fact that while State law pro- hiblts prize fighting. local ordinance countenanees boxing exhibitions held under the auspices of an incorporated club and that the latter measure pre- ciudes all possibility of the city fathers stopping the fight at this juncture. The police if they believe the mill te be brutal and therefore beyond the pale of legiti- mate exhibition with gloves. may enter the ring and step the bout after 1t starts, but not before.
 Ruhhn spent the day in quiet. He has
  Madden several times during the day, receiving advice from his manager. The Akron fighter ate hearty breakfast, took a long stroll along the ocean beach in the morning and played cards part of the afternoon.
 Jefrries was a trife more actice, but his sxertions were provoked by the social demands made upon him by admirinG friends with whom he walked and talked during the afternoon. Jeffries Is full of life and declares he will beat Ruhlin along about the tenth or twelfth round. Few bets have been made today and in all known instances Jeffriss was on the long end and at even better odds than yesterday.
 Harry Corbett, who will referee the fight. says he is in condition to part the big fellows if they resist him or fai1 to follow his commands and that he will Sigidly enforce the rules of the game.
 The picture company placed It's lights in position today and will take ktneto- scope pictures of the struggle. the as- surances having been given to Jeffries and Ruhlin that the heat of the electric lights will not be severe and will in nc way annoy them.

Burning Vessel Suddenly Rent by
 Explosion.

Philadelphia, Nov. 14.-Captain Ferlan of the Australian steamship Etelha: mas brought to this port news of prooaole marine disaster. o.,
 Early on the morning of November Sth' when the Etelka was in latitude Al nortn, longitude 59 west. Captain Ferlan states that his attention was drawn to what ne believes to have been a burning steam ship The craft was invisible, but the blaze of the flames could be plainly seen
 The course of the Etelka was changed, vessel an explosion occurred and the steamship was torn to pieces. The Etelka cruised about in the vicinity of where the fire occurred, but could find no trace or any of the crew which was thought had taken to the small boats. Captain Ferlan says just before the explosion the flames shot high in the air, which leads him to believe the vessel was probably an oil carrier.
 Tt was simply impossible" he said, ito identify the vessel.''

England Not Getting the Govern
 ment It is Paying For.

London, Nov. 14.-Lord Rosebery, speaking tonight in Edinburg, said he did not intend again to try to secure re- form of the House of Lords, as this was not a task for an individual. but one needing a national impulse.
 q would like to see." he continued, "an experiment for a year of a government formed entirely of business men, such as for example, as MT. Carnegie and Sir Thomas Lipton, instead of politicians.
 q would ask you ,are we getting our moneys worth for the money spent? We are beginning to learn the lesson that great measures must in future be car ried more by the harmony of contending uarties or by the agreement of belligerent politicians than by the overpowering as- cendancy of any one faction in the coun- try."
