a success of what she undertook, Of

little for church. She was indeed an;

met
Polygamy is still practiced but as it
is violation of the laws, very little is
said of it. Ask Mormonif be be-
lieves in polygamy and he will tell you
he does, that the world is not pure
enough TO- accept it now, but the time
will come when it will be accepted by.
all. have known several women who
had lived in polygamy. They would
say they believed in it but they showed
plainly that they really thought differ
emily. One woman whose mother lived
in polygamy told me that her mother
told her that her life had been a hell
on earth, and that she would rather
bury every daughter she had than see
one marry in.polygamy. One. man,
livery strong in the faith" told me
that several of the "Heads of the
church" were now living in polygamy
in Salt Lake.
They take great pride in their large
families, the larger their families, the
greater their glory in Heaven they be-
lieve, hence polygamy.
"The Desert News" the mouthpiece
OF the Mormon church is published in
Salt Lake.. It is managed by the heads
OF the church and is certainly an up
to-date publication.
That the church is managed bv a
shrewd set of men, can be seen by the
wealth of the church the constant in
crease of its membership and absolute
control OF the church over it's people.
There are now over $50, 900 Mormons,
10000 of whom are in Utah. Mormon
missionaries are at work in nearly all
countries in the world. I understand
that the church controls the Oregon
Short Line railway system besides
having interest in other railway sys-
tens. They have just started great
sugar beet factory in LaGrande, Ore
gon. 1t is the property of the church,
and only Mormons will be employed in
it's operation. When we consider that
every Mormon contributes one-tenth
OF his yearly income to the church it
is not wonderful that it has vast wealth
and increasing power.
The Mormon will tell you that the
missionaries travel without ''purse or
scrip" this however is not true. They
also tell you that their pastors receive
no compensation for their services,
but I've noticed that they all seemed
to get rich fast. Generally speaking
the Mormon people are about like any
other religious sect in regard to hon.
esty. They are not all honest by any
means although there are good honest
people among them. The same may
be said regarding morality among
them. In every Mormon home is an
enlarged picture of Joseph Smith. He
is pictured as handsome man, with
gracious smiling countenance, and his
life, as portrayed in their books, is as
beautiful as his face. Is it wonder
then that people are imposed upon and
made believe all this superstition when
it was all executed so cleverly?
I hope I will tell you in my next let
ter how the Fourth was celebrated in
Yakima. It took some time before I
could make myself sure that it was the
Fourth of July and not Thanksgiving.

A MURKY MYSTERY
MRS ADA DENNIS RECEIVERS HER
FACULTIES AND CAN TALK
AT LAST
DOESN'T KNOW WHO HIT HER
Says She Was Attacked While She
Slept and Cannot Suggest
Anything in the Way
of a Clue.

WASHINGTON, JAM 12.-Mrs. Ada Gill
bert Dennis, the fashionable modiste who
was murderously assaulted on the night
Of Dec. g. was able for the first time
today to make a statement. The police
have been hopeful that what she would
say would throw some light on the mo-
tive for the crime, or lead to the discovery
of the perpetrators, but the statement
contained nothing that would give any
clew in either direction.
Mrs. Dennis said she remembered moth
ing Immediately preceding the attack upon
her, and said the blow was struck while
she was asleep. Nor had she the re-
hottest idea who committed the assault
nor the motive for it. She said she
had not been out of the house during the
evening Of the night of the assault,
and that before retiring she had locked
the doors to the front and back of the
house. The latter she occupied as a bed
room.
One feature Of Mrs. Dennis statement
that puzzles the police is that she said
her revolver and her money were under
her pillow when she retired. When the
crime was discovered the next morning
the revolver was in drawer Of a secre-
tary near by and the money was in a
pocketbook in box on a table near
the bed. The police are more mystif1ed
than ever over the affair.
Mrs. Dennis condition today was very
much improved, and the attending physi-
clans believe she will recover.

WILL REDUCE TARIFF
SENATE LEADERS HAVE DECIDED
PHILIPPINE IMPORT DUTIES
ARE TOO HIGH
DEBATES TO BE DEFERRED
For the Present Both Branches OF
Congress Will Put in Time Do
ing Committee Work ON
Important Bills.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-The senate Is
still without any definite plan of action
for the future, and the indications are
that the present week will witness a
greater display of activity in the senate
committee rooms than in the senate
chamber. There are very few matters
of Importance on the calendar but
enough to engage attention for few
hours each day until Thursday, when
the senate will probably adjourn for q
week
Among the measures which there will
be an effort to get out of committee
during the week are: The Nicaraguan
canal bill, the Philippine tariff bill and
the ship subsidy BILL The indications
are that the Nicaragua bill will be re-
ported practically as it passed the house,
and that the shipping bill will not be
materially amended, but the Republican
leaders have practically decided to make
a material reduction of the tariff on
Philippine imports.
1t is not probable that the discussion
of either of these questions will begin
for some time. The utmost that is to
be expected in that direction is a pre-
liminary arrangement for consideration.
Which of the measures shall receive first
attention is not yet determined, and
considerable rivalry is likely to develop
for precedence. The three measures
will be debated at some length when
taken up in the senate.
House Will Take 1T Easy.
The really important work of the house
of representatives, aside from the Mica
raguan canal bill, is still in the commit
tee stage, SO that there is little of I'm
portance to be considered during the
coming week. Monday will be given to
bills affecting the District of Columbia.
After that the pension appropriation bill
will be passed Although this measure
carries about $139 100000 it follows the
department estimates and does not In
Volve any serious issues, SO that after
brief explanation its passage usually fol-
lows promptly.
The ways and means committee has
few minor bills on the calendar, for the
redemption of revenue stamps made
worthless by the repeal Of certain fea-
lures of the war revenue act. With the
disposal of these bills, there will be lit
tie to engage the attention of the house,
and there promises to be several periods
of adjournment, during which time the
committees will perfect the largest meas
ures to be brought before the house.
The chief interest of the week will
center in the hearings on Cuban recip-
morning before the ways and means
committee. The hearings will continue
for several days, and it is expected that
Gen. Wood and others prominent in Gu
ban affairs, as we'll as the interest OPP
posed to reciprocity, will address the
committee.

Health Commissioner F. M. Hall yester-

He held a conference during the morn
ing with President Cyrus Northrop, and
1t was agreed that as a result Of the Nc
Kibben case it was advisable to vaccinate
every student attending the institution.
This will mean the incubation of over
5000 people.

partment, has offered his services to DR..

class of this department will assist the

cal class. had not been feeling well all

be a case of smallpox. He was taken

cred to be in a serious condition.
DR.. Hall and Inspector Harry Luxton
yesterday visited the places where Nc
Kibben roomed and boarded. The two
places, GIG Fifteenth avenue southeast and
1907 Fourth street southeast, had been
exposed. At both places there are ninety
students and all received a few drops OF

EXPRESS TRAINS BUMP
AN EMPTY DINER PREVENTS FEAR
Full RESULTS
Locomotive of One Train PIovs It's
Way Into Last Car ON the 9th
er-One Man Fatally
Injured.

CHICAGO, jan PA fast Pennsyl-
Vania passenger train from New York
crashed into the rear of another express
from Cfninnati on the same system to-
night at the Baltimore & Ohio railroad
crossing near Forty-ninth street and
Wentworth avenue. Two men, both
train attaches, were seriously and per-
haps fatally injured, and although the
passengers on both trains were severely
shaken up, no serious injuries were suf-
fered. A possibly large loss of life was
prevented by the fact that at the rear Of
the forward train was the empty dining
car Delmonico. The locomotive of the
rear train plowed its way half the length
of this car. The cook, Robert Hathen,
was caught in the wreck and was terri
bly, burned by the fire, which caught from
the overturned stove in the kitchen He
probably will not recover.
The other injured man was John Tu-
berty, who jumped from the rear engine.
He was badly cut and received internal
injuries. William Wallace, engineer,
jumped and escaped with slight bruises.
No reason is given for WaHaces failure
to stop his train in time to avoid the ac-
cident.
