SMITH GETS COMMUNICATION
VIII Not he Made Public Until II Has
Been Passed Upon by
the QuOrums.

Lamont, Ia, April 19.-(Special Tele-
gram. )-Frank NJ. Sheehy lectured on book
Of Mormon topics at the Saints church
last evening, to students Of the history OF
the people who first Inhabited this coun-
try. A lecture Of this kind is extremely
interesting and the congregation was highly
entertained by Elder sheehy. who has for
years been a member OF the standing COM
mittee on American archaeology. This
mornings prayer and testimony service was
one Of the most interesting prayer serv-
ices held during the conference. The
quorums not being in session, many OF the
travelling ministry we're present and related
their several experiences. The sermon was
delivered by L. e. Hills. The business
session was opened at the usual hour.
Prayer offered by Elder Columbus Scott,
senior president OF seventies. The audi
tors report upon the bishops report on
college was received and the Recommended
ton that all the books and accounts OF
the church In the general ONCE be closed
on the same day, as they are SO closely In
terwoven, was adopted. Report upon en-
sign account was adopted, as also upon
Herald ONCE accounts.
President Smith now stated that, so far
as it was possible at the present time, the
routine business Of the conference was
completed. He also informed the confer
ence that he had received a communica-
ton which would materially effect the or
ganizatlon OF the leading quorum OF the
church, and in order that the different
councils and quorums might meet to con
slider and pass upon said communication,
he would now adjourn the business session.
This was done, and the various quorums
went to their several assembly rooms.
President Smith then addressed the re-
naming congregation, which. though COM
posed almost entirely Of women, was a
very large one and listened most atten-
lively to the speaker upon the theme OF
the ministry. spirits or angels. This meet
ing was dismissed about 3:45.
All seem intensely interested in the fact
that a communication had been received
and many are the guesses as to it's nature
and the changes 1t will effect. 1t will not
be made public until passed upon by the
various quorums when 1t will then be pre-
scented to the general assembly for accept
ance. which will probably be tomorrow.

COST OF LIVING.

Prodigality Has Reached Stage that
Is Almost Epidemic.
1t seems to cost great deal to live
nowadays. Most persons notice it, espe-
cially persons who are hard put to it to
find the money to pay their bill, says
Harper's Weekly. The statisticians re-
port that commodities in general use cost,
on an average, about 10 per cent more
than they did year ago. The rise in
the price of meat contributes good deal
to this advance. though breadstuffs have
been high, too. Articles Of luxury have
grown dearer in proportion than most ar
ticles of necessity. because the huge in
fiux of money that the country has Sis
tanned has made a brisk market for lux
uries. Rents are higher; houses cost
more; servants get higher wages; board
is higher at summer hotels. Another
thing that counts for a great deal is that
in prosperous times like these the in
comes of very many people are increased
and their expenditures are proportion
ately amplifed. They spend more money.
live more luxuriOusly and raise the stan
dard Of living. The living expenses Of
any given family are very much affected
by the expenses Of other families of their
acquaintance. and the scale of living of
''other families" seems just now TO have
become inconveniently liberal. There is
nothing that We are reader to share than
our economies. 1t is easier to economize
when it is the fashion. Just now prodig-
ality is so conspicuously prevalent that it
has become more or less epidemic.
