they try to leave after having accepted
Its tenets. / have been visited recently
by Mrs. Blair, a convert to the Mormon
faith, who has tried to convince me l
did not know Hooper Young or Mrs.
Pulitzer.
Mrs. Blair said it was impossible J.
could have known either. She asked me
why 1 insisted upon saying / did know
them. l replied that l intended to tell
all J. knew of the matter.
The Mormons deny that Young is a
Mormon; that he ever attended the
meeting where I saw him, or that Mrs.
Pulitzer was at any of the meetings.
In answer l would say l have seen
Mrs. Pulitzer n Young at the Tues
day evening meetings in West twenty
third street and that there were pres
ent Elder Potter, Elder McQuarrie,
Elder Freeman, Elder Golf and Elder
Jones, the very men who have declared
to the public that Young was not now a
Mormon, and that Mrs. Nelson PUTT
ger was unknown to them.
Mrs. Pulitzer was murdered on tues
day evening, the night on which the
meeting in West Twent-third street was
held. Mrs. Pulitzer often said the rea-
son she was not baptized in the falth
was because her husband objected.
rs it possible that the murder was
arranged at one of these Tuesday night
meetings, or that her absence that night
from the prayer meeting was taken as
an evidence of her backsliding and the
result washer murder?"

along the international line, the nomaSin

CARRIE AD UNITS IT.
Mrs. Nation Acknowledges She Is De-
scended From Duke of Arnvla.

Kansas City, Mo, Feb. 4.-Carrie Ma
lion believes she is a descendant of the
duke of Argyle, at one time a mighty
warrior of Scotland. Her claim was
made after she had inspected a print"
purchased by her brother, Campbell A.
Moore, in Kansas City, Kan. The litho-
graph represents a group of Scottish
chiefs in council on the banks of a.
lake. On the lower margin is a verse
Of poetry and the names of the chief
tains portrayed. In the left hand corner
Campbell, duke Of Argyle. is represent
ed.
Mr.. Moore hung it in his store for
sale and the fact that he possessed it
passed from his mind. One day last
week Mrs. Susan Mclaughlin, Mrs. Ma
TONS cousin, called at Mr.. Moore's
place of business. She saw the picutre
and rea the inscription, Campbell,
Duke Of Argyle" Then she remarked:
That is our neutrality-suspicious."
Mr.. Moore Immediately commune
!ated the news to his wife and other
of the family. The print"
was removed to the parlor of the Moore
aome above the secondhand store and
me relatives notified of the discovery.
When The matter was brought to the
notice Of Carrie Nation she said she
knew she had descended from the duke
OF Argyle, but that she had refrained
from making the fact public because
ef the fear Of adverse criticism.

the Pennsylvania National
Guard Commander.

philadelphia, Pa, Feb. 4.-Daniel r
Mckelvy, justice of the peace of Halle
ton, who yesterday testified before tn
anthracite strike commission, was re
called today for cross-eXamination
N8Counsel attempted to show that witness
I had neglected his duty as an officer O.
the law because Of his partially
towards the strikers.
Witness did not deny his sympathie:
were with the strikers, but asserted he
II had not failed in his duty. He told OF
4 having been out an entire night among
h strikers and pickets. His object
ne said, was to advise strikers to re-
main away from company property ant
to create nc disturbance.
chairman Gray appeared dissatisfied
with his testimony concerning an as
sault upon a non-union man, With
which McKelvy had been charged. The
chairman was unable clearly to under
stand the witness description of the
occurrence, and displayed considerable
&impatience.
Commissioner Parker asked witness
II he had advised any Of the men not tc
return to work. McKelvy said he ha6
made several addresses during the
strike and suggested to the men the adj
visibility of remaining firm.
MarkIe's Extortions.
ID. j. Curry, general ~storekeeper, said
the prices charged in the Markle stores
averaged 121k per cent higher than his
prices.
William Mclaughlin of Shenandoah
said there were few scenes of disorder
IN that city, a notable exception being
the riot in which Joseph Beddall was
killed, which resulted in the call for
troops.
Counsel questioned witness concern
sing the effect of General Gobin's cele-
DRAFTED shoot to kill order" and said it
created a general feeling of Indignation.
Witness said soldiers We're frequently
arrested for disorderly conduct and
We're invariably taken from the civil
authorities by Goblin.
What was Gobin's attitude regard
Ing the Strikers?" witness was asked.
Chairman Gray decided against the
admission of the question. He said:
'Gobin's attitude was that of a MAJ
sent to q place for the purpose Of main
tanning order, I suppose"
A Roll of Honor.
mclaughlin was cros~s-eXamined con-
corning the riot in which Beddall was
killed. Asked if any attempt was mada
by n Of the mob to rescue victims,
witness said three men tried to assist
him.
What are the names Of those men?"
Inquired Chairman Gray. They de-
serve to be placed on the roll of honor"
Witness knew two Of the three-TId- !
ward McGinnis and Michael Durkin- ,
and Justice Gray said he hoped tho !
press would publish them. !
William Rutledge, a miner, was {
questioned concerning the limitation of
production. He said ordinarily the
loading of sever cars would constitute
a days work, but since the end of the
recent strike he had been unable to
load more than foul and a half cars
daily because the supply of cars had
been limited by the company. The
breaker had been working an average
of nine hours per day. ,

INJURED balls; another would allow the
present foul strike rule of the National

drives to the fence should not count as
strikes; 4 a third is that of allowing

AN IDEAL NEWSPAPER.
DR.. PaTkhurst Is Interesting Million
aires to Endow One in New York.

New York, Feb. 5.-Dr. Charles III. Park
hurst declares he is meeting support Of
m~ilIionaires in his project of providing an
ideal daily newspaper for New York.
Il have no idea of publishing a religious
daily" said DR.. Parkhurst. II believe
the news provides suggestions for the
practical use of religion. The people
want news-clean, wholesome news, that
will edGcates, not degrade.
MY idea is to print facts, and to print
them for just what they are worth, if
printable. The se~nsationalism in some
newspapers Us disgusting and degrading.
mo suppression of news is part of my
plan, nor would | provide a stupid paper;
the purpose would not be profits.
Had L millions Iswould endow such a
newspaper. 1t would not pay at the start,
but the public, revolving from the sensa-
tional paper, would turn to it and be
benefited.
TOO much space is given in papers to
petty things, often treated in a manner
positively revolving. simply because of a
craving for the unwholesome, which is
catered TO and increased by feeding"

hree years, from the Atlantic to the
rocky mountains and beyond, Adolph
Kuhn was arrested yesterday in New
Cork for huge swindling operations in
his city. The frauds, it is said, ag-
;regate $4,000.
By an ingenious scheme of forging
leeds to real estate and then mort
raging the property, Kuhn victimized
~shicagoans out of $50, 900. One Of the
heaviest losers was Frank Kittler, 5T37
Dearborn street, who gave Kuhn $780,
100 on the worthless deeds. Kittler in
rested the money of others. but he
made good the losses out of his own
purse. Another victim was George j.
Williams, 43 River street. A Mrs.
Meyers was also swindled out of $1,000.
