charge that there has been COLLISION
between witness and General Tyner on
the preparation Of the bond investment

Il say emphatically that General Ty-

or agreement with me as to the scope,

There was no conspiracy between

of such a thing, and even if l had,

General Gordon and the Popguns.

One of the funniest stories l ever
heard was an anecdote of the late
General Gordon, says writer in the
Era Magazine. Before the breaking
out of the war between the north and
south. General Gordon, who was
bitter rebel, made speeches all over
the south melting the people to rebel
lion. In his ardor he made frequent
use of the expression they would
''whip the yankees with popguns.
In the conflict that followed General
Gordon was one of the most valiant
Confederate fighters. His chivalrous
record as a soldier is one of the
most valiant Confederate fighters.
lis chivalrous record as a soldier
is one of the brightest pages in war
history. When the war ended and
the south was vanquished, he re-
turned to his native home OF Athens,
Ca. and revived his practice as a
lawyer. A few years later, when
fierce campaign was on in the state,
he consented to speak at number
of places, but his proslave views
were modified; he advanced new
ideas, and spoke of the building up
of new south, under new conditions.
One night, in Macon, Ca, when he
had finished a brilliant oration On
these lines, an old fellow down in
the middle of the audience rose, and
addressing the general said:
"Look heah, sch! Didn't you make
speech in this yer county, way back
FOUNDER in '61?"
The general meditated: Il believe
I did sir!'
"Well, didn't you tell us we could
whip them thar yankees with pop
guns?"
The general stood with military
erectness, and, buttoning his long
coat, REPLIED:

Senator McComas, of Maryland,
told this story recently on himself,
says the Washington Times: "While
professor in a law school in Wash
ington I had my class before of my

the smallness of the world. "Why,

SOLDIERS DEATH.
Is Regarded Highly BY Japanese and
Causes Rejoicing.
les.ie's Weekly.

I. h.nor of the Gead-for the COM
rades and bunkies lost in battle-the
living Japanese soldier sheds no tears
IN public, and indulges in no curses
threatening vengeance, but instead
he plays, he revels, he sings, and he
dances. A soldiers death is not one
to cause grieving; on the contrary,
it is the greatest honor conferred by
high Heaven upon mana privilege
which permits him, bracely facing
the enemy, to sink into the perfect
bliss of Nivana, into the arms of per-
petaai sleep.
After the battle Of the Yalu the
Japanese forces were too busy fol-
lowing up the Russians to Feng-
wang. g.cheng, driving them beyond
this town, and holding the strong po-
sition for themselves, to indulge in
the usual ceremonies in honor of the
dead. On the last of May, however,
division after division and regiment
after regiment arranged for functions
necessary to pay the proper respect
to their brothers killed in battle. In
the grove near their camps they built
parks Ito roughly simulate the artistic
productions of horticultural and land
scaoe gardening III their own beauti-
iui country. However, lacking the
real thing in the shape of a garden
they burlesqued their rockies and
grottoes, their flowers, and their ar
tihcially misshapen trees. Paths were
cut and stairways excavated in the
solid earth, which led meandering to
various exhibits, or to the shaded tea
tables of the officers mess.
Big hieroglyphic signs were hung
everywhere, all of them containing
some joke or pun, some hit or glbe
at the Russians. The exhibits, which
took the form of groups of uncouth
animals, Russian horses and soldiers,
and guns, were all made up from
spoils captured from the Russians.
In the grounds were the wrestling
rings with sandy floor, canopied
overhead with stray mating, sup
ported on four draped posts. Here
the heavyweight men with corded
muscles, struggled for supremacy,
and for a final prize as champion OF
the regiment; or, sides were chosen
from separate, battalions and the
winner of each bout received a small
token, such as box of cigarettes,
cake. or a sweetmeat, and the side
having the largest number of throws
to: its credit might receive a fifty
package box of cigarettes.
Next to the wrestling in point OF
importance, are the ceremonial fields
sport, are the amateur theathlcals
and dances. With practically no acces-
sories, the soldiers succeed in CIV
ing very interesting costume shows

turns of comic storytelling, Juggling.

Mormon Annual Conference.

Salt Lake, April 4.-The seventy
fourth annual conference of the Nor
mon Church was opened in the Taber-
nacle yesterday, and was attended by
more than 10000 church members.
President Joseph F. Smith in his
opening speech expressed qualification
at the large attendance and especially
at the presence of many who came
from long distances. He dwelt upon
the divine protection that had been
given the church. and claimed he
could see the hand of God in its
growth.
Apostle Francis NJ. Lyman. in the
course of his remarks, said:
I'VE are here that we may have pos
terity. We are here that we may null
tiply and replenish the earth"
! In speaking of the doctrine of divine
revelation, Apostle Lyman said:
. when President Smith stands up
to speak, we know God is with him.
We know that the Lord speaks
through that man. 1t Is the mind Of
the Lord, the purpose of the Lord"
, No reference was made to the re-
cent investigation of Senator Smoot
at Washington and polygamy was not
mentioned.

Russian Battle Lines Drawn.

Nov York, April 4.-Russia is draw
iog up her battle line along the Yalu
and all dispatches indicate that along
the banks of the river will be fought
very soon the first decisive battle of
the war.
At VIII 1000 Cossacks and infantry
men were reported entrenched yester-
day. while the rapid advance of the
Japanese forces emphasized the fact
that the great armies are drawing
within striking distance.
In European capitals great interest
was manifested yesterday in the role
being played by King Edward, who in
his neutrality proclamation presented
unmistakable evidences of his desire
for peace. Russia was particularly
pleased with his utterances, while 9TH
er powers saw in his words the posi-
bility of his becoming mediator in
the Far Eastern struggle.
China, through her minister at st.
Petersburg has notified Russia that
sac will remain strictly neutral.
From Toxic special correspondent
wrote of the changed plans made nee
essary by the naval successes Of
Japan at the outset of the war Details
were added concerning the makeup Of
the army corps sent to the front, their
commanders, their headquarters, their
possible destinations, and, above ALL
lhe vastly important movements con-
nected with the war.

correspondent of the Matin reports an
interview with Prince Khilkoff. head
of the Russian military railway COM
munications, who arrived there from
Lake Baikal to-day, in the course OF

WOLCOTT AHEAD
DENVER CONVENTION ENDORSED
Plan of "Anti" Division for New Pri-
maries in Denver Rejected by
State Central Committee.

Denver, April 3.-The Denver Re.
publican (Wolcott Republican, this
morning says:
By vote of 6S to 80 the Republican
state central committee yesterday en-
dorsed the action of the regular Re
publican city and county committee.
in holding primaries a week ago and
calling city and county convention
done to evade the partisan provisions
: OF the new charter. and refused to Or

commission, as sought by the anti"
division of the party, thus giving. for
the fourth time within year, con,
plete endorsement of those in Denver
who held to a straight course ever
since the party was rent asunder over
the election of United States sena-
tor in the Fourteenth General Assem-
bly,.
AS a result of this decision a rumor
was rife of a bolt throughout the state
as well as in Denver, and although it
is generally accepted that a contesting
delegation will go from the state CON
yention to Chicago and endeavor to Sc
cure recognition there and that rad
ical element locally, led by the l. R. c.
S. c., will endeavor to arrange fusion
terms with the Democratic machine
on a ticket to be elected next month,
the leaders of the anti crusade de-
clared after caucus at nighttime
that they would continue the battle
for supremacy under the Republican
flag. They did not conceal their dis
appointment, however, with the action
of the committee in this and other
matters.
The state committee, in addition to
dealing with the Denver embroglio, set
the date for the state convention at
Friday, May 9Th in Denver, and en-.
dorsed John w. Springer as a candi.
date for vice president on the ticket
with Theodore Roosevelt. Mr.. Springer
was also endorsed by the two con.
gressional committees that met and ar.
ranged for their conventions, the first
to be held on the same day as the state
