PAROWAN SCANDAL.
Marrow Escape of a Hotel Keeper
Matrimonially Inclined.

Social circles OF Parowan are stirred
from center to circumference over
matrimonial incident that was schedui-
ed to occur, but which, however, did
not transpire. Parties who bring the
tidings to Salt Lake are responsible for
the statement that last week prosper
GUS hotel keeper In that city undertook
to take unto himsel wife. The Paro-
wan ladies apparently did not MI the
matrimonial bill nothing but trav-
eled bride would do. Consequently, the
lot fell on a damsel from Ohio, still
more recently OF Salt Lake. The fatted
calf was killed, the ring and license pro-
cured and the guests hidden to array
themselves In fine linen and mentropoli-
tan attire and HE to the marriage
feast When the wedding day dawned,
however, the groom had changed his
mind Some good friends told him over
night that his bride was not exactly a
counterpart of Caesars wife, In fact,
they gave some data and specifications
that opened the eyes of the boniface to
an exceeding Wilderness. The blushing
bride, confronted with the evidence,
wept and refused TO be comforted. She
protested her innocence and made all
kinds OF statements The groom, how
ever, was as adamante. he postponed
the wedding until the receipt OF letter
from salt Lake In answer to some rush
Information requested urgently. When
the letter arrived on Monday there was
a scene. The lady was told 10 pack up
her jewels and stained reputation and
go, She protested and said things not
usually associated with coy bride.
Then she averred by all the gods on high
Olympus that she would have the law
agin' him. With this threat she dis
appeared and the man is now awaiting
the advent of the papers in the
threatened breach of promise suit.
In the meantime there are a floral

sand Dollars in Coin.
THEN MADE THEIR ESCAPE.
Did Their Work in the Early Morn
ing Hours When the Town Was
Enveloped in Fog.

Portland Or, Oct ga special 10
the Evening Telegram from sheridan,
Or, says
AT o'clock this morning burglars
entered the banking house Of Scroggins
Workman, at this place, blew open
the safe with giant powder, secured
$1,000 In coin and made their escape be-
fore the sleeping residents OF the
town could be aroused. The bank Is
situated in brick building in the CEN
ter OF town, and was established ID
years ago The principal deposltors are
the farmers of the surrounding country,
Considerable business had been trans
acted on Saturday and IL was generally
supposed that large amount OF coin
was on hand. The robbers took the
most opportune hour for their work. as
the town was deep In slumber and en-
veloped in dense fog. No Waterman
was on duty as there never has been
any need OF guarding property.
The quiet manner In which the men
worked enabled them to force the from,
doors of the bank and drill hole near
the combination sufficiently large to
insert heavy charge of giant powder
hinges but not heavy enough to wreck
the building.
The shock OF the explosion awakened
Mayor II, II. Eakin, who lives over his
store diagonaly across the street from
the bank. Looking from his window he
saw man standing short distance
from the bank, also bright light
showing through the fog from the bank
building The party, who was evident
ly standing guard, quickly Joined his
companions and the entire party jump
ed into a rig and started to drive to-
ward the south,
In an instant the mayor realized
that the bank had been robbed. He Sc
cured rifle and fired three shots at
the men as they disappeared down the
road The firing of the rifle and the
screams OF Mrs. Eakin aroused the cit
liens and In few moments number
OF armed men were on the streets.
a hurried inspection disclosed the
fact that the robbers had made a clean
Job Of their work but had taken moth
ing from the safe but money. Many
valuable papers were left intact, Out
side the building sledge and two picks
were found These FOOLS had been used
10 force an entrance to the building and
had been dropped when the work was
complete. One OF the picks has the
stamp OF the Southern Pacific upon H.
showing that those tools were evidently
stolen from the railroad. The bank OH
cials az once notified all points that
could be reached by telephone north
and south and Sheriff s. w. sltton arr
rived here at o'clock from McMlnn-
willie and began an investigation.

W|SHARD'S LIGHT
UNDER A DUSHEL.
Presbyterian Divine Reads Paper
Before Ministerial Association;
Declines to Make ii Public.
WAS ON EVANGELISM IN UTAH.
He Presents Various Alleged Elements
Which Go to Make Up the "Mor-
mon Faith and Deductions. "

The Salt Lake Ministerial associa-
ton listened this morning TO two pa
pers, and an address. The papers were,
one from Rev. T.. A, simpkin OF the
Phillips Congregational church on How
can we help one another In eyangelistc
work. The suggestions were mainly in
the line of exchanges OF pulpts, send
ing people to churches where they
would be better suited, and the inter-
change of those little lnter-church
courteses that go to make the minis
terial life pleasant The other paper
was by Rev. DR.. Wishard and was en-
titled "The Best Methods of Evangel-
ism In Utah" The docsor presented
the various elements which go TO make
up the Mormon faith, as they pre-
scented themselves to his view, and drew
his deductions. A News reporter
later asked the doctor for his paper for
publication, but he laughed and said
mo" when asked what point he in
tended to make he said The point is
that God Is bigger than the devil You
can just say that God Is on His throne,
and His win will be worked out on this
earth" II was ascertained that after
Dr Wishard had finished reading his
paper. motion was made TO print Il,
but the matter was deferred until some
other meeting. il is believed, however,
that DIR. Wishard's paper will be print
ed later In pamphlet form for dlstribu-
ton
The address was from Rev, w, T.
Fredenhagen OF Topeka on the Econ
omlc, Civic. Social and Spiritual Phas-
es OF Prison Reform mostly In line

As Time Draws Near the Political
Situation Becomes More
Aud More Acute.
RALLY WILL Be A HUMMER.
Acting Chief of Police Taking Every
Precaution to Prevent Fraud
At the Polls

As election day draws near the exist
ing political situation becomes more
acute. Both camps seem to be coming
to a realization OF the fact that what
Is needed Is thorough organization and
are doing their utmost TO see TO II that
nothing is lacking In this respect. The
Republicans are in high spirits over
what they are pleased to term the out
look for a splendid victory, while the
Democrats, though quiet, are no less
hopeful than they were day or two
ago. So far as the election itself is
concerned, II promises 20 eclipse in
point OF interest, any that has ever
taken place in this city, and this is say
ing great deal, when one recalls the
stirring times OF ten or twelve years
ago.
The Republican rally In the Theatcr
next saturday night promises 70 be a
hummer. The Young Mems club Is
doing everything possible to make Il so
and announces in patriotic colors short
addresses by prominent Republicans
vocal and instrumental music and other
features not yet fully arranged for.
Who the speakers will be Is not known,
but they viii likely be leading party
workers and probably some OF the can
didates on the city ticket.
While at present there appears no
reason for the report that hobocs and
transients generally are to present
themselves at the polls on election day,
Acting Chief OF Police Burbidgc Is on
the alert for any such emergency and
Is doing everything possible to prevent
II by promptly arresting, on their mr.
rival In Salt Lake, all persons who
cannot give n legitimate excuse for
their being here. Already quite a mum.
Der OF questionable characters have
been taken in and every avenue is be-
ing closely watched TO prevent any UNI
due influx OF such people at this time.
Today party workers were unusually
busy impressing people with the neces-
sity Of registration On the complete
ness Of this work, of course depends
the vote cast for city officers, and as
indications point to a close contest Il is
highly necessary that voters see to II
that their names appear on the books
OF the registrar.
