LIVINGSTON IN CONTROL.
1t Is Believed He Win Throw His
Strength to Judge johnson.

Manti. March MISUNDERSTANDING a
stormy night, almost a binding snow
phzzard, the large opera house was al
most filled with citizens OF both political
parties last evening to look on and take
part in the selection Of delegates to the
county and district conventions to De
held respectively in this city on the 31st
OF the present month and April in Nit
Pleasant for the purpose of nominating
one district judge and one district attor-
ney. Mayor l.. r. Anderson was chosen
chairman Of the meeting.
The first business done was the selec-
ton OF four delegates TO the district con-
NentlOn. Each candidate for Judge from
mere had his own delegation selected and
printed on ballots. which were distributed
IN the audience. and all regardless of
naturaliZed citizens. with the exception
of a few Democrats. took part in the bal
lOting. The Livingston delegates were H

Livingston. The Christensen delegates
were Ezra Shoemaker. L. X. Anderson. a.
II. Christensen. c. p. Larsen. The Liv-
ingston delegates won BY the large ma
jority of 245 to los.
Eight delegates were next selected to
attend the county convention for the
purpose of selecting twenty-nine delegates
to attend the state convention. They are:
p p Dyreng, l. R. Anderson. Alfred
Alder L. V. Hardy, W. d. Livingston,
Ezra Shumaker. J. 2. Madsen, A II.
Christ ensen. Alternates were 5. W. Hog

The next business transacted was the
selection for the precinct Craftsmanship
with the following as executive commit
tee; L. z. Miller, Lewis Larsen, z. V
Hardy. Jesse W. Fox and George Il.
Bradley as committeeman at large.
The primary was a great victory for the
Livingston forces. and it is to be hoped
that those favoring him will not be de-
ceived in his supposed anxiety for the
judgeship, as il IS believed that his
strength will go TO Judge Johnson, and

London. March 24-The routine Of
royalty was Interestingly broken today
when Queen Alexandra paid an infor-
nal visit TO the Alexandra Trust and
there enjoyed a Scent dinner among
the factory employees and children Of

taken keen interest in the institution,
which was founded on her plan TO give
the poor the cheapest possible food

and the dining rooms were packed.
Among those present were John ID.
Crimins Of New York and Miss Grim

Like factory girl who had just pre-
ceded her, the queen went to the desk
and asked for eight dinner tickets, ten
dering half a crown. She was told
that they would be pence more. which
Earl Grey promptly contributed.
Upton Was There.
Sir Thomas Upton conducted the
royal guest. who was simply dressed in
black, through the dining rooms. The
news Of the identity of this extraordi-
narily young looking woman soon
spread. and the children crowded
around her. curiously touching her
dress and looking up in her face. Those
who could not getsnear stood on tables

THIS BIBLE WRITTEN BY HAND.
Congressional Library Owns Volume
No Printing Press Could Equal.

The most beautiful volume among
the half million in the Congressional
library at Washington is a Bible which
was transcribed by a monk in the six
tenth century. says the New York
Press. 1t could not be matched today
in the best printing office in the world.
The parchment is in perfect preserva-
ton. Every one Of its thousand pages
is a study. The general lettering is in
German text. each letter perfect. with
out a scratch or blot from lid to lid.
At the beginning of each chapter the
first letter is very large usually two
or three inches long. and is brightly
illuminated in red and blue. ink. With
in each of these capitals is drawn the
figure of some saint, some incident Of
which the chapter tells. There are
two columns on a page, and nowhere
is traceable the slightest irregUlaTity
of line space or formation of the let
tiers. Even under a magnifying glass
they seem flawIesS. This precious
volume is kept under a glass case,
which is sometimes lifted to show that
all the pages are as. perfect as the TWO
which lie open.
A legend relates that a young man
WhO had sinned deeply became monk
and resolved to do penance for his mis-
deeds. He determined TO copy the
Bible that he might learn every letter
of the divine commands which he had
violated. Every day for many years
he patiently pursued his task. Each
letter was wrought in reverence. and
love. and the patient soul found its
only companiOnship in the sanity faces
which were portrayed on these pages.
When the last touch was given 10 the
last letter the old man reVerently
kissed the page and folded the sheets
together. The illustrated initials in
perfection of form and brilliancy of
color .surpass anything produced in the
present day. With all our boosted
progress, nothing in Europe or America
EQUALS it,

LACK OF AMMUNITION /

eeeded TO BadSchama, which was found
deserted. The expedition therefore
started back, but soon after leaving
Badschama il was attacked and two
soldiers and several natives fell. a re-
treat was ordered because of a lack
of ammunition. Shortly after passing
Pascho the expedition was again at

wounded in the right eye and in the
breast. While crossing the river the
count attempted TO cool his wounded
eye with water, but then called for

himself. However. he expired. death
being caused by his previous wounds
A soldier was also killed in the second
attack. and the remainder of the ex-
petition fed TO Aboni, where Kuesler
