, OBITUARY.

The angel of death visited the
home OF George Carter on last
Thursday morning and took his
dear com panion from him.
'Tis sad, so sad to think that one
so young, mot yet having seen her
twentieth birthday so good and
such loving wife should be taken
away, yet we know that our darl-
ing is now at rest for she was a de-
voted christian having been con
verted and baptized more than two
years ago. Before dying she told
her husband that she was ready
to 90 to her home above the skies.
One night while her friends and
relatives were watching by her
bed side she spoke TO her husband
telling him that she had seen her
Savior and OF his beautiful crown
and spotIess robe and she said the
next time he came he would take
her too, and as her relation would
come in she would tell them Of her
beautiful vision.
She seemed so happy and bore
her suffering so patiently
though it seemed as il she had
more than her portion of suffering
having been sick for three months.
At times her friends would have
hope OF her recovery, but she told
them all the time that she could
not live. All that loving hands
could do was done TO save her. We
had to part from our loved one for
the present, but, thank God, she
has gone where all her friends can
join her il they only will prepare.
Virgle is not dead but safe in the
arms OF Jesus.
Only a few short months ago we
witnessed-their wedding at her
fatherk home (Rev. Copley'sl
They seemed so happy and how
little did we think that in so short
a time darling Virgie would be
called away and numbered with
the dead.
i would say to the husband
mourn not for your 'oss is heavens
gain, only prepare to meet your
dear one in that land so bright
above where parting never comes.
We know 'tis sad to give our loved
ones up but only trust in that One
who doeth all things well and he
will bear your burden of sorrow.
II is sad for father, sisters and
step-mother, also her aged father
and mother-in-law who could not
have been any better to their own
daughter than they were to her.
Yes tits sad for us all to give our
loved one up, for darling Nlrgie
was 80 kind and so true, but yet
how sweet the thought of her be-
ing now safely anchored in the
haven Of rest.
She is gone but not forgotten, TO
that land so bright above where
the Savior beckons come. Her re-
quest before dying was to be laid
by her mothers side so she was
taken to Little Blaine and laid to
rest. CAP.

The first necessity OF athletics Is a
sound stomach. Food is the source of
all physical strength, but to extract and
assimilate the strength from food requires
that the stomach and other organs Of
digestion and nutrition should be in a
condition OF good health. What is true
of the athlete is true of every man and
woman; physical health and vigor de-
pend upon the digestion and assimila-
ton of food.

MYSTERIOUS MURDERS.
Police Of Chicago Cannot Solve the
Barthoin Murders.

Chicago, ILL.,, Aug. 12.-Police Off
cials have been in consultation again
today trying to formulate new theories
that may tend to solve the mystery
surrounding the murders of Minnie
Mitchell and Mrs. Bartholin. Spurred
on by offers of reward for arrest of
William j. Bartholin, the police of the
neighboring towns made several ar
rests today, but in each case the pris-
oner's identity with that of the sus-
pected murderer could not be proved
Working on the hypothesis that the
murderer had a mania for killing, the
officers today began Systematically to
dig up every inch OF the basement in

Curious crowds throng the neighbor-
hood, now the notorious death house,
and officers have been compelled to

BIG PARADE WILL BE TOMORROW
-Four School IeachsIs Ambushsd and
Murdered BY Filipino Outlaws.


Salt Lake City, Utah. Aug. H.
This is the opening day Of the great
national gathering Of Elks and If the
enthusiasm that attended the initial
proceedings is any indication of what
is to follow the convention is destined
to go down in the history of the order
as the most successful yet held. There
was a delegation on hand from every
state when Grand Exalted Ruler
Charles e. Pickett calledsthe gathering
to order this morning in the assembly
hall of the Mormon tabernacle, the in
terror of which was gay with the flags
and banners of the order. The opening
proceedings were routine in character,
but none the less interesting. Governor
Wells extended greetings on behalf of
the state of Utah and there were other
welcomes for the city, the local lodges
of the order and the business men Of
Salt Lake City. Response was en-
bodied in the annual address of the
grand exalted ruler and then the con-
vention listened to reports and the ap-
pointment OF committees. This busi-
ness disposed of an early adjournment
was taken to permit the visitors to
partake of the first installment of the
long and attractive entertainment pro-
gram prepared by the local commit
tees. The big parade takes place to-
morrow and there will also be busi-
ness session behind closed doors.

EXTRA SESSION.
President May Convene the Senate
Early IN November.

Washington, Aug. 12.-Advices re-
ceived here indicate that President
Roosevelt will call the senate in ex-
traordinary session early in November
to enact Cuban reciprocity legislation.
1t is understood to be the belief of the
president that a special session Will
be much more fruitful of results if held
after the November elections than be-
fore. 1t is assured that the question of
relations of United States with Cuba
will enter largely into the approaching
campaign and it is stated that the
president feels that the democrats will
be less likely to offer serious opposi-
ton to reciprocity treaty after the
election than they would before. A
treaty with Cuba practically has been
prepared.
