HIGH ROYALTY
FOR MASCAGNI
FRENCH MANAGER GIVES HIM
BETTER TERMS FOR OPERAS
THAN VERDI OR WAGNER.

ROME, December S.-Mascagni has
signed contracts for the rights to two
operas, "Amica" and "Vestilia" to a
French manager. The composer will
receive So and Sc per cent respectively
of the profits when the Operats are
produced abroad. and 20 per cent for
both when they are produced in Italy
These are more advantageous terms
than even Verdi or Wagner received.
Riccardi does not hesitate to say
"Amica" will achieve the same tri-
umph as "Cavalleria Rusticana," as
it has the same melodic qualities and
dramatic intensity of passion with the
added maturity of more modern music.
The French manager was so over
whelmed and struck by the score of
"Vestilia" that he signed the contract
for it without hearing a note. The
contract provides that "Vestilia" shall
be ready i'm three years. Mascagni
expects to finish the work much
sooner as he has been working on it
for year.

MORE ABOUT MORMONISM
CHURCH OFFICIAL on STAND IN CASE COMMIT
TEE SECURES LITTLE NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. LIGHT on
THE MARRIAGE CUSTOMS LAWS OF THE SAINTS ARE
BROUGHT INQUIRY

WASHINGTON, December 15-Au-
gust Lundstrom was recalled for cross
examination when the Senator Smoot
Investigation was resumed. Attorney
Van Colt, for Senator Smoot, asked
the witness if he had ever considered
the obligations taken i'm the temple as
a huge joke or i'm the light of vaude-
VILE performance.
Il always regarded the oaths as sa-
cred" he said. Then he declared that
men cannot pass through the temple
to take endowments for women.
He was asked if he ever married in
polygamy.
"Only in a way" he replied.
Have you had plural wife,
Eyes, sir"
Then he explained that a dead wo-
man had been sealed to him for etern-
ity, but that he had never lived with
more than one wife.
John Nicholson the chief recorder
of the Mormon temple at Salt Lake
city was sworn. He proved the most
reluctant witness of all the church Of
ficials who have been brought before
the committee. BY a slow process the
attorney for the protestants drew
from him the fact that he keeps the
records of marriages, baptisms and en-
dowments, which are solemnized with
in the temple. He explained that
the endowments are the placing upon
individuals blessings that will be upon
them during this life and all eternity.
Attorney Taylor questioned Nichol-
son closely concerning the manner of
keeping the records, and obtained
from him a statement that he had ac-
cess to all records, but he would not
admit having authority over them
or that he knew who is in authority.
He said he knew where to find the
records of all persons married within
the temple, or who had taken the
endowment, and could give such in
formation upon demand, adding, how
ever, that unless the person making
the request was entitled to informa-
ton it would not be given to him. He
said he was responsible for the safe
keeping of the records, and that. so
far as he knew no part of them had
ever been taken from the temple.
q believe you were served with a
subpoena to bring all the records in
the temple?" asked Mr.. Taylor.
AT the request of Attorney Worth
ington the subpoena was produced,
which called for the marriage records
only.
Did you bring all of the temple
records" asked Mr.. Taylor.
mo, sir: could not. 1 had no au-
thority to do So"
He added that he brought one rec
ord, that of the marriages performed
within the temple. He was asked
where he kept the record of the en-
dowment house marriages. He said
that they were in the temple, but
that he had no authority over those
nor would he admit knowledge as to
who has such authority
Nicholson said the book he brought
with him contained the record of
every marriage performed within the
temple since it opened, i'm May, 1893.
and that records of marriages per-
formed outside the temple are not
kept within this book.
ON cross-eXamnation the witness
declared that the marriages had been
performed within the temple except
