"Rot" That Is Preached and Sung.
He declared that through the mis-
sionary work the world would be
brought to the feet Of Christ, and de-
clared that he did not believe in the
rot preached and sung by some, that
the world was getting worse and would
get So bad Christ would chain the
devil for a time and then loose him
again. The tide, he said, was turned
toward missions, and the only need was
more money, more consecrated money
to carry It on.
Messrs. Koepsel and Mork thought
Utah was a great mission field, and
the former declared that IN time the
power of the gospel would make the
Utah star the fairest one on the flag.
Dr. Iseilich stated that he had read
in the papers that Methodists were dis

converts and were continually bowling

''Well, am glad we get the money"
said he. And 1 am glad we get it as
free-will offering and not by some
corkscrew process"
.MT. MOrk then told of the work
among the ScandiNavians of the city,
and said the great secret Of dealing
with Mormons was not to argue OF
quarrel with them.
Both fsf'5ress5F and Mrs. Gillian then
made short talks along mission lines.
The afternoons programme was con-
cluded with a paper on Why I Am a

had embraced the principles Of theology
set forth by John Wesley.
The conference came to a close last
night with an evangelistic service and
sermon by Z. E MOTk. The arrange
ments for the next meeting were placed
in the hands Of a committee, to report

Rev. James Wilks then read a paper
on Can the Methodist Circuit System
Be Adopted in Utah?" He gave a brief
history of the system and declared It
his belief that il could be effectuany

most effective was the preaching OF
pure religion and an effort to bring
about purity of heart.

The Rev. Thomas Johns then read a
lengthy and strong paper on 1.-THE Law
OF Prevailing Prayer. He said he
feared that the Methodist church was
becoming too modernized, and he
thought it should hold tightly to the

Complainant in Big Alimony Suit
Former Salt Leker.
The dispatch printed in yesterdays
Herald announcing that Helene Ripley
Bethune had commenced suit against
her former husband, Colonel George
Angus Bethune, for nine years ali
m0ny, amounting to ST, 600, was read
with great interest by the many friends
OF the plaintiff in this city, who had all
but lost track of her during the past
few years. A number of years ago
Helene Ripley was prominent in local
society circles. She is the daughter of
Mrs. John Afford, who lives at Sc Cen
ter street. Her stepfather died only
last week.
Miss Ripley was a school girl, at
tending the university. when she first
met Colonel Bethune, who was q well
known mining engineer. In 1889 he
passed through Salt Lake, was married
during the day he stopped over, and
with his bride went on TO Tacoma.
After a residence there extending over
a couple of years they removed to san
Francisco. In the latter city their life
was not so harmonious, and in the end
they were separated by the divorce
laws. soon aIpeFWafQ MIS- Betnune
went to New York. She has written a
play and achieved some distinction in
literary circles. Twice she has visited
Salt Lake since her marriage.
The first that has been heard o. her
for some time by her friends was the
information printed yesterday When
she was divorced her husband was not
q man Of means, but in recent years he
has struck it rich" and Mrs. Bethune
expects to get good share of his
fortune.
It is understood that Mrs. Bethune
has remarked since settling in the east,
but the divorce law of California, it is
believed, will not prevent her from get
ting alimony from her former husband
if the justice of her claim is proven
Colonel Bethune is one Of the wealth

gSneriaI IN The Herald1

Pocateilo, Ida. April 1I.-Early this
morning a freight train crew between
Pocatello and Ross Fork discovered the
body of a man lying on the track. The
remains were found to have been cut
in two and the head literally mashed
to a pulp. 1t is evident that the acci-
dent had occurred some time during

A half breed residing at Ross Fork
partly identified the remains Of the
man, by the clothing, as that Of Hor-
ace Rich.
Judge Rich. who was on the train
from the north today. took charge Of
the remains of the unfortunate man,
and says he is a boy that he raised
from childhood. The judge says Hor-
ace had considerable money when last
seen, and he fears the boy has met
with foul play.
