few of his colleagues knew that in adj

such is the fact. For two days now Mr..

in the Young Trial
Immersed at Chap

ACONVERT TO MORMONISM
Shocked By Her New Faith

AC0NVERT TO MORMONISM

The fact that Miss Elizabeth Dickin-
son, erstwhile head OF great federated
society composed OF the younger element
of Protestant churches of Greater New
York, is to figure as a witness-in the case
of William Hooper Young, grandson
OF Brigham Young, the Mormon prophet,
for the horrible murder of Mrs. Annie
Kingston Pulitzer, is one of peculiar LEGAL
interest.
Miss Dickinson forscok her religious
faith as Congregatiopshst and was
baptized into the Mormon faith while
she breasted the waves that lash the
shores of the New York Bar. in the very
shadow of the weeping willows of New
York Bay Cemetery. This incident oc-
eu,red On the Fourth of July. tive years
ago. The spot where she was baptized
is just across the roadway, Chapei ave-
nuc. frcs where Pastor Hancox, of
Faith Curist fame has for years baptized
the converts to that faith. But Pastor
Hanco always on such occasions wears
sort OF Paul Boynton rubber suit, and
his converts wear similar garments when
led out for immersion some distance from
shore.
Not so with the Mormon elder that
baptized Miss Dickinson. Not so with
Miss Dickinson as the Mormon convert
that was baptized. The. Mormon elder
MAS handsome young man, wieh black
hair, aash;ng black eyes, cleaning white,
teeth. He wore polished high hat, a
suit os black broadeloth. with a. tightly
buttoned ceat of Prince Albert cut. He
looked every inch bridegroom at we'd
ding. And the conyert-Miss Dickin-
son? Many prospective brides would al
most pawn their souls for such bridal
robe-not very costly, it is true, but Of
texture and design indicative Ola life of
efnement, if not luxury, on the part of
he owner 1t was of something that
looked like white silk from distance;
white fulle from nearer view. But it
was a handsome gown. The bride, like
a pillar of a church gallery on festive
occasion, was intertwined with green
leaves and beautiful flowers. She wore
white roses in her glossy black hair. She
looked like bonny bride. She was pret-
ty to gaze upon. 1t seemed a pity that
such a splendid couple should walk out
even through the sunlight waves of New
York Bay shore, amid the chorus of
scores of followers of the prophet, Joe
Smith and Brigham Young. followed by
crowd singing loudly hymns, the tunes
of which are strangely familiar to Protes-
tant ears, on that occasion of the nations
anniversary, only to emerge looking like

the latter fully up to the standard Of the
former. He further declared his belief
that If a foreign" architect was selected
the contractor would also bessforeignw
This was the result Of his observation
and experience except on very rare occa-
sions. Money spent for such purpose,
he said, should be spent in Hudson
County. He desired personally that Hud-
son County labor should be employed in
the construction of the building.
Architect Won ARK declared that no
greater ability was required to draw
plans for hospital than for those Of
other public buildings, such as school
housese, FIRE houses, ETC., Each had its
separate scheme.
The, Mayor said he had been impressed
throughout all the speeches with the idea
that the architects were laboring under
the impression that the trustees had
uestioned the ability or efficiency Of the
Hudson County architects. THAT is
not so, he said. I have attended a
number Of meetings of the trustees, and
| can assure you that what they most de-
Sire is the widest possible competition
Mr.. Roberts said that as he read
through the lines the local architects
would not have a fair chance
The Mayor wanted to know if Mr..
Roberts spoke for all
Mr.. Roberts, in reply, intimated that
an impression prevailed that the propos-
ed selection of the three best plans sub
niitted by the sixty architects was de-
signed to have second heat, or set, of
plans from which to choose.
Are you afraid of it?'' asked the
Mayor.
sNot exactly" answered Mr.. Roberts,
but there are some people VINO believe
that nothing good can come out of Naz-
areth. We want to show those people
that something good can come out Of
Nazareth
The Mayor said that he would attend
the next meeting Of the trustees and as
snred the delegation that its views as
expressed would be set forth before the
trustees and receive due consideration.

TRADES COUNCILS JOIN
Fear That If a Stranger Gsts

Will Be Foreign.

i A large delegation Of Hudson County
architects, master carpenters and build
ers and members of the United Building
Trades Council called upon Mayor
! Pagan at the City Hall this morning to
than Hudson County architects to conlS
petition in the drawing of plans for the
new City Hospital. There were about
thirty men in the delegation.
Among the architects were Hugh Rob
erts, Of jersey City, who introduced the
various speakers. George Van ARK, Rob
ert c. Dixcn, Jr., MessTs. Long, Welfe,
Ciccarelli. All are members Of the HID
son County Society of Architects, NUM-
Der of them members of the American
| Institute OF Architects.
The Building Trades Council was rep
resented by John E. Westlake, Edward
Arlington. Robert r: Edwards and w.
E. Ward, Jr.
The Master Carpenters were also well
represented.
The general contention was that IL
New York or other outside architects
We're allowed to compete and one OF them
should be successful, the contract for the
/ erection Of the building would also go to
an outside contractor, who would in all
/ probability secure outside labor. This,
it was argued, would, including work on
materials in the mills, affect possibly
| thousand laborers
t seems that the hospital trustees ~
commission originally proposed to invite
some New York architects to compete
| with the sixty architects Of Hudson
County in the drawing of plans and that
the best three plans drawn by Hudson
men should be put alongside of three Of
the best drawn by New York architects,
and from the six a selection be made.

being extended to New York architects,
and handed the Mayor typewriter

has also been submitted to the hospital
