She Kept Her Word.

A few days ago the unusually clever
Mr.. Martin was talking at the dinner
table in his usual clever manner about
the inconsistency of women.
'These young ladies who protest
that they are never going to marry!"
he broke out. Everybody knows they
will belle their own words at the very
first opportunity"
He paused and evidently hoped that
Mrs. Martin would come to the rescue
of her sex, but the discreet woman
held her tongue.
"Why, Mary" he continued, "you
remember how it was with yourself.
I have heard you say more than once
you wouldn't marry the best man
alive"
swell, I didn't" said Mrs. Martin.

Did you ever go to Nursery TOWN.

With its people running In and out

"A heart is a passport to the place,
But lore is Of little use;
The staple products are sugar plums,
And the classic is Mother Goose.

It Is sweet as the COO of a dove.
It is foreign to all but the citizens.
And Is learned In the school of love.
Have you ever heard OF the curious laws

And the weakest wears the crown.

And this you may set down:

FOOTBALL GAME TO-DAY
Native Sons vs. White Skinned Ath-
 letes At Phoenix Park.

There are to be other attTa tions to- day besides horseracins and the Ma tional Guard excursion and parade. one of them. at least, will be at Phoe- nix park. where q newly and especially organized football team will endcavor to skin the thus far. invincible Indian school football team
 Intimatiors have been received from the native sons that they will be there at the skinning. and they promise that all the cuticle will not be hanging from the belts Of the white men when the battle is over. The Indians nave .. rep utation to sustain, and they are cer- tainly determined to hold their own if possible
 On the other hand. the town boys, who have deliberately plotted to win this game. have devoted much time to practice and are fully prepared to put up e contest. The aggregation com priscs nineteen men. many of them old college football players. and the rest chosen from the best available ma terial among the boys now devoted to the game. It will be seen that the whites can suffer the loss of eight men and still have a full team to operate with. Therefore, in order to win, 1t will be necessary for the Indians to begin shedding the blood of the enemy just as soon as the play begins. and keep up the work till the umpire has satis- fled himself fully. The Phoenix team is composed of the following men. Harry Campbell, captain; Linville, Beilas, Lum, Bowling, Wright, White, Hughes. A. Wormell, C. Wormell, Rob inson, McClintpck, C. Williams. R. Williams. W. Marian, C. Marian, Hall, Parish and Forbes.

nifty only, ana another for time and
eternity, Would seem 10 head 70 more
or less confusion and possibly be of de-
moralizing tendency.
The writer has 10 quarrel with

that this has been done: and with no
view OF temporizing for the purpose of
this case. and the writer would be glad
to believe thSt such had been the case
with some Other parties who have APP
parently tried to influence public
opinion and the courts in this matter.
This sealing" question was forced
upon the plaintiff in the case BY the
defendant. The plaintiff, in her COM
plant, simply alleged q marriage be-
tween the parties stated. The defend
ant, by her answer, denied the mar
rage but admitted that there was
sealing or Sealing ceremony" be-
tween the parties under the rites and
ordinances of the Mormon church: that
to take esfec: after death only, and
that the parties should nc. be husband
and wife in this world, undertaking
thereby TO explain and show in sub
stance that the sealing ordinance was
as a church tenet, understood and de-
signed not to unite parties as husband
and wife in this life, but after death
only. Thus the plaintiff was bound, as
stated by the supreme court, to meet
the affirmative issue raised BY the de-
PENDANT
This explains that the sealing ques-
ton was. by the defendants pleading,
made to become the controlling issue
in the case.
There is neither time nor space to
discuss the sealing question properly,
nor quote authorities TO sustain my
position; suffice il to say that the
statements made by the editor, as
above quoted, find no support, but are
contradicted in the Revelation on
Celestial Marriages" which is a law of
the church. Neither are they other

ty, so far as my knowledge extends.

cases III the church where women of
advanced years, who have left a for
mer husband, have been sealed TO a

perfectly competent, and the parties

however, the parties should cohabit to-

with it the right TO cohabit together,

The sealing" OF wife to husband, as
I understand it, is fixing of the
status of both, by which they are
sealed together as one under the law
of God, by divine authority. for time
and for all eternity, including all the
rights and privileges which pertain TO

of marriage to its adherents. 1t is
more sacred and of eternal Importance.
