when the charge was filed with the Unit

alleged plural wife, as we'll as the time

Her husband was born in Salt Lake
City, January 10, 1862, the son of one OF
the pioneers who crossed the plains
with Brigham Young in 1847.. His fathor
had five wives. He worked In mill as
a bobbin boy and rose to be superin-
tendent. After attaining his majority
he spent a year IN missionary work IN
England and on the continent.
He was called home on account Of bio
fathers illness. and after the latter's
death he found the estate badly in
volved. Good business management
saved something from the estate. His
marriage brought him large property
and his first investment was In mine
which at once struck 1t rich and netted
him half q million dollars. He is inter-

In 1900 he was elected one of the IL

A year ago he began campaign for
the seat in the United States senate, as
a republican. He has never held public
office, but he was as unique and success
full in his method as any Of the vener-

He received 46 out of a possible 6

HOW TO PACK TRUNKS.
To Do 1t Well 1t Must BE Done Lee
surely, Otherwise Results Will
BE Disappointing.

There is a right and wrong way OF
doing everything. In particular, there
are right and wrong ways of packing
trunks. In the first place, you ought
to do your packing leisurely. Very few
things can be successfully done in a
hurry, and this is among them. Books,
music and any other things of the kind
you may want along may form bot
tom layer. Next, put in your lingerie,
petticoats and dress skirts. Be careful
how you fold the latter. Don't have a
crease down the middle of the front
gore. Fold it so that the front lies
fiat and spread it out the width of the
trunk. Fold over the top to get in the
excess length and tuck roll Of paper
in the fold. Have plenty of soft tissue
paper on hand ami by it's means puff
out all the full sleeves and fluffy bows
anything, in fact, which would be
hurt by being crushed. In this man
ner it is well to stuff all lingerie
waists.
Il is better to put the latter in t7a$
and pin them, SO that they cannot
shake around.
Be- sure that all the corners are filled,
otherwise your good packing goes for
nothing. For this purpose stockings
and other odds and ends of that kind
may be utilized.-Chicago News.

ANTIQUE FURNITURE.
It II Highly Esteemed by Lovers Of
the Beautiful and Advocates
of Art in the Home.

The decided partially for antique
furniture and for reproductions from
the antique which exists at the present
day cannot be attributed SO much to
the vagaries of fashion as to an I'M
provement in taste and an appreciation
of beautiful work. In the old models,
says London Madame, there is an ele-
gance of form and genuineness OF
workmanship almost impossible to find
in our modern styles, and the craftsmen
of to-day are wise when they go to the
old masters for their motif and insp1ra-
ton. At the same time it is not just to
say that our modern artists and design
ers have not any originality, for on the
contrary their adaptations of different
styles in order to make them suitable to
modern requirements bear testimony to
their skill. In olden times, it is well to
remember, there was not the rush
through life nor the demand for cheap
things which at present exist, and again
the competition was not so great; there
fore the craftsmen were able to work
leisurely and carefully, bestoW1ng IN
finite pains and care over each individual
piece. To do such work now would
mean a much higher price for the furn1-
ture than the ordinary furnisher is pre-
pared to spend, although he may give an
enormous price for a genuine Chippen-
dale or Heppelwhite chair, looking upon
H. almost in the light of an investment;
but for a modern production, however
perfect, he is not prepared to go to such
expense. Thus it becomes necessary to
cater for the man of moderate means,
and our designers and craftsmen have
to q certain extent to suffer in reputa-
ton. The best period of English furni-
ture was undoubtedly the eighteenth
century, when Chippendale, Sheraton,
Heppelwhite, 1nce and Mayhem were
the craftsmen Of the day; but going
back to the Queen Anne and Elizabethan
periods we find specimens Of exception
al worth, which have been handed down
from generation to generation and still
retain their original appearance, age
only having increased the mellowness
of the wood and enhanced their value.
To return to the eighteenth century de-
signers, there is no doubt that they
looked to France for inspiration, and
they freely acknowledge their indebted
ness to their neighbors across the chan
mel, but they were by no means copy
lists; they took the French school for
their motif and toned down it's f1orid-
ness to somewhat severe style more in
keeping with the English taste and re-
quirements. The French styles Louis

princess, from which marriage WIN
Jordan waa born, is one of the 10
mances of the west.
After reaching the plains, Col. Jor-
dan became government Indian scout,
and in this manner became we'll ac-
quainted with Chief Red Cloud. Later
he met Red Clouds niece, Wee-Washte
(Pretty GirD and fell in love with her.
Jordan talked Sioux like native and
the courtship- was carried on in that
tongue. 5g--.,.
But, says the Brooklyn Eagle, when
the consent of the old chief to the
marriage was asked an almost insur-
mountable difficulty arose. No white
man had ever been married to Sioux
princess, and it was necessary to get
the consent of the entire tribe,
through the chiefs. And SO grand
council was called to consider the mat
ter. Red Cloud had become very much
attached to Jordan in the years that
the two had been known to each other,
and he used his powerful influence in
favor of his white friend so success
fully that the consent of the tribe was
given, with certain provisos. Wee
Washte must never learn one word OF
English; Sioux must be spoken in her
household and in that of her children
forever; the children were to be per.
mitted to speak English while away
from the house, but the moment one en-
tered the home English must cease. And
although Mr.. and Mrs. Jordan have
been married rs years or so, Vice.
Washte knows no language but her ma.
tive one. Her children are we'll edu-
Gated, but they speak Sioux in their own
home.
Some weeks ago Will Jordan, on
reaching his eighteenth birthday, was
given the name of "Red Cloud" after
his uncle. Ut is customary for an IN
dian to take new name when about
10 years old). The accompanying pho
tog7aph of him was made at that time.
He is wearing "scalp coat" OF the

Tail, whose enemies sca1ps fringe tho

heads of Crow Indians with whom the
Sioux were at war for hundreds of
years. The exact number Of scalps
used in making the fringe cannot be
discovered, but not less than 100 were
necessary, while perhaps $50 were
used, Years ago these scalp coats
were common, but to-day very few are
known to exist.

Wild Beasts ON tho Sea.

A French scientist has made some
interesting observations as to the love
of different wild animals for the sea.
The polar bear, he says, is the only
one that takes to the sea, and is quite
jolly when aboard ship. All others
violently resent trip on water, and
vociferously give vent to their feelings
until seasickness brings silence. The
tiger suffers most Of all. The mere
sight of a ship makes him uncom-
Portable, and when on board he wines
pitifully, his eyes water continually.
and he rubs his stomach with his ter
rible paws. Horses are very bad SAIL
ors, and often perish on a sea voyage.
Oxen are heroic in their attempts not
to give way to sickness. Elephants
do not like the sea, but they are
amenable to medical treatment. A
good remedy is a bucketful of hot
water containing three and half
pints Of whisky and seven ounces OF
Ouinine.

WOMAN OF THE HOUR.
Mrs. Reed smOot, the Wealthy Wife
Of Utah's New Mormon United
States Senator.

Few American women have been
brought into greater notoriety than Mrs.
Reed Smoot, the wife of the wealthy
Mormon United States senator from
Utah. In various parts Of the country,
and particularly from the National
Woman's Christian Temperance union
and from the Presbyterian, Baptist and
Methodist church organizations. a CAM
paign Of opposition has been started
which is likely to be brought to crisis
the coming December when congress
meets. '..m
Mrs. Smoot is the daughter Of the late
Henry s. Eldredge, of Salt Lake City,
who is one of the wealthiest and most
prominent bankers Of the Mormon me-
tropolis. She brought her husband for
tune, which he has largely increased by
careful handling.
She is the mother Of six children.

side the young man can trace his de-
scent back to that of John DeCoursey,
lord of Galinger, who carried the STAN
dard of the English and Irish hosts in
one of the Crusades, and who, in that
battle on the banks Of the Jordan river
between the Christians and Saracens,
was given the name Jordan" by the
English king because Of his gallant
conduct and proves. The ruins of
Castle Jordan are still to be seen in
County Meath, Ireland.
The Jordan family, or at least part
of the family, came to the United

THE DARK.

The dark came out of his dim retreat
Where shadowy llem1ocks spread;
No sound he made with his gliding feet
As he passed through the village street
Where the trembling Twilight fed.
And the children, caught in the edge Of
night,
Sped home with a thrill of fear:
'"The Dark is coming!' they cried in fright,
And scampered away to the cottage light
That sent them ray Of cheer.
And the Dark passed on, and he gently
stepped
His shoes were as soft as down;
AS the tired people and flowers slept,
The cool, thick plumes from his helmet
swept
Far over the resting town.
The children slumbered till dawn grew red,
And the Dark kept watch till day;
He kissed them all, as they lay in bed,
And not the curl of single head
Did he harm ere he stole away.

XIV, XIV. and XVI. are always consid-
cred very costly, elaborate, and only
suitable for the palace and mansion, as
we have unfortunately taken our ideas
of them from the palaces of Versailles
and Fontainebleau and other royal resi-
dences, whereas the houses of the same
period were almost equally beautiful
but very much simpler and better adapt
ed to everyday requirements. These
French styles can be applied to English
and American homes and so skillfully
treated that they lose none of their
character yet are simple and unpre-
tentious. The Empire style is more
elaborate and ponderous, being a mix
ture of French and Roman known as
Napoleon's Caesarian furniture, in
which he was anxious to give an i'm
preston of his conquests, and the other
French styles are those Of Henri Deux
and Francois Premier, known as the
French renaissance. These various
styles are easily distinguished when
once their characteristics are grasped,
the illustration being a fine specimen
Of Heppelwhite work.

Another Abandoned Child. - Last
evening a we'll dressed woman wearing a
heavy veil and carrying an infant entered
the Central depot. Some moments later
q waiting passenger was attracted by
the cries of an infant lying in one OF the
seats. The passengers called the atten-
ton of Officer Murphy and the latter,
unable to find anyone claiming the in
FAINT, conveyed it to the matron OF the
f street station, who in turn sent 1t to
the foundlings' home. An awaiting
passenger at the station noted the fact
that at the time the officer took charge
of the child a we'll dressed woman, heav-
lily yelled, stood at the entrance Of the
train shed apparently watching the
scene with great interest. Immediately
upon the officer taking charge Of the
child the we'll dressed woman passed
rapidly into the train shed toward an
awaiting south bound train. The pas

she was appSrently weeping. 1t is

in the last conflict. In the war depart

Men Love the Neat Woman.


There is an attraction in neatness and
order all their own. Their lack is felt
even when there is great beauty to daz-
zle the eye. know that there are men
who tolerate slack, untidy women, but
have always regarded them as mar
tyrs to duty, mistaken in the size of the
obligation laid upon them. have never
blamed the man who Stunned untidiness
at home, be he father, husband, son or
brother, and that, my friends, is the real
whip that drives some men from their
own fresides. The really neat woman
Is neat at all times, and the slack one is
very unwise when she INDUCES her pro-
pensities at home. Cleanliness may BE-
next to goodness. and certainly neat
cess is next to beauty.-Ch1cago POST
