Fencing a Feature at Annapolis.

Fencing fills in the gap at the Naval
Academy between the periods when the
foot ball players doff sweater and mole
skins In the early winter and when the
athletes of crew, diamond and field and
track get busy at the beginning of spring.
Though delayed in opening this year, on ac-
count of the lateness of the other colleges
and clubs in opening the season, the navy
sWordsmen are having most interesting
day afternoon, in which every usual weapon
is used, and some novelties of the fence
are introduced. Each tournament opens
with a battle royal in which an expert
takes the board and only retres when
touched This is continued until everyone
who wishes has try and the undisputed
champion holds the ground. Then there
are bouts with the foils, dueling swords
sabers and canes, open not only to mid
shipmen. but to local and visiting fencers
These Wednesday tournaments will be held
each week during the season, which lasts
until the end of March, and are open to
visitors.

OPPOSED TO SMOOT
GRANDSON OF THE FOUNDER OF
THE MORMON CHURCH.
Lineal Descendant Of Joseph Smith
Denounces the Practices Of the
Salt Lake Organization.

Among the interested listeners at the
Srloot hearing has been Frederick NJ Smith
Oh Lamont, Iowa, who is a grandson of Jo-
seph Smith, the founder of the Mormon
Church, and yet this mans sympathies are
"antf-Smoot," as are those of many other
liLeal descendants of Joseph Smith. This
lends peculiar aspect to the endowment
house oath now under scrutiny before the
committee. According to this oath Mormons
swear to avenge the blood of Joseph Smith
on the nation. This oath-bound promise to
retaliate on the United States for its treat
ment of the prophet is the most serious
charge that has yet been made in the Smoot
case. Frederick NJ. Smith calls attention to
the evidence which this form of oath fur
nlsnes that 1t was not a part of Joseph
smiths original ceremonial because based
upon his death, and that these monstrous

RoosEvE1rs SOUTHERN POLICY.
Thomas Nelson Page Quotes Remark
in Presidents Defense.

In an interview in the Richmond Times
Dispatch of Saturday Thomas Nelson Page
quoted a remark of President Roosevelt s
to him, which shows, DR.. Page declares, that
it is the Presidents intention to deal fairly
and justly with the south The Presidents
words, as quoted by Mr.. Page, Were:
IF the south will wait two more years
before passing judgment on me I believe
she will be satisfied as to my good inten-
TONS
The above was brought out in discus
sion by DR.. Page of educational conditions
in the south and the remedy for them. He
expressed the opinion that the President
had now, and had always entertained the
most friendly feelings for the south, and
that he was much astonished by the storm
of anger against him which had swept over
that part of the country.

They found a tribe of some fifty men and
women of a type never before seen in
Greenland. Unlike the small Eskmos, they
were race of giants. many Of the men
being eight feet in height, with frames Of
proportionate mold. In features the giants
resembled the American Indians. They
could neither speak nor understand the
Eskimo language, and apparently used their
voices to make little more than cultural
sounds.

At Woodbury., Cannon county, Tennessee,
Sunday, Thomas Potter prominent mer-
chant, shot and instantly killed A. j.
Smithson, an attorney. The tragedy grew
out of a sensa tional law suit, in which
Potter's testimony on the witness stand was
adverse to Smithson's interest Sunday a
young lady, who was accompanied by Pot
ter was accosted on the street by Smith
son who is said to have remarked she
should not keep company with man who
would swear falsely. The men met later.

Complaint Against France.

Mr.. Smith is accompanied by Francis NJ.
Sheehy, one of the quorum of twelve of the
old Mormon Church, in charge at eastern
missions. They have had a conference with
Secretary Hay regarding the maltreatment
of their mission by the French government
in one of the South Sea Islands. This Nor
mon mission was established In 1912 and
now has 1900 members among the native
population. These people hold an annual
conference, in accordance with Mormon
policy. The French government of the is
land has construed the new law of asso-
Citations" to apply to this Mormon mission,
and has forbidden its further conferences.
The matter has been taken up through the
American consul and the facts haye been
laid before Secretary Hay.
In Somerville, Mass. the Old Mormons
are building a church, but there they labor
under the disadvantage that many people
confuse them with the Brghamtes to their
great disadvantage. When Mr.. Sheehy was
asked why his organization did not change
its name so as to escape the odium of the
polygamists, he replied that somebody else
might steal that, too. They We're the org
inal Mormons, and because their name had
been msused by branch of the church
was not sufficient reason for those who
held it in its original purity to abandon
their claim to be called the ReorganiZed
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day
Saints.

Mr.. Smiths Views.

Inc truStworthfneSS of the testimony re-
garding the endowment house oath is now
the chief subject before the committee. Mr.
Frederick NJ. Smith today said he had no
doubt of its genuneness.
I'VE have had a number of people who
have come out of the Salt Lake Church
into our own" said he, and / have asked
them II they have taken such an OATH and
they have said that they had. In John
Hyde's book on Mormonism that oath is
repeated substantially as it was given by
the Swede before the committee the other
day. and 1t is the John Hyde representation
or 1t that L have questioned our people
about The endowment garment, like
union SUIT marked SO as to remind its
wearers of the peculiar oaths which they
have taken, Mr.. Smith has always heard
of, and believes the testimony now sub
mitted to be entirely accurate.
Mr.. Smith says that Mr.. Smoot the pres
ent senator. Is spoken of everywhere in
Utah in terms of the highest respect, and
that nothing against him can be found, ex-
cept in his represe native capacity; but he
stands for church movement which is
very dangerous to the United States gov
eminent.
There is no question in my mind that
polygamy has hold on the Salt Lake COM
munity which few people understand. Con
tinued Mr.. Smith. Il think this is brought
out by the investigation where several per-
sons have testified that they have taken
plural wives in recent years. l wish that
Miss Weed of Chicago, who has been speak
ing in the interest of the intcrdenomina-
tional council of women, would do us the
justice to distinguish between our church
and the Salt Lake organization. She has
said that of the two classes we are the
worst because we claim TO be something
when we are not. The fact is that no or
ganiZation in the country has done more
to fight polygamy than our own. We have
felt that the teachings and practices OF the
Salt Lake organization constituted a stain
upon my grandfathers name which we
have insisted should be Wined ont >,

insurance trust companies in this state
for the past year shows total receipts

UNLESS the representatives of the

district reached an agreement at their
last conference, Monday, one of the
biggest strikes in the history of the coal
industry is to be expected. In that
case over 100000 people would be in
volved and the number of idle men
would reach 100000. The soft coal
miners have the support of the anthra-

fair way of adjusting these difficulties
