MIR. PAYNE'S FUNERAL
OBsEQUIEs WE'RE MARKED BY IM-
 PREsSIVE SIMPLICITY.
President, Cabinet and Officers of Army and Navy Attended
 Washington Postal Carriers
 Acted as Honorary Escort.

Washington. Oct. 7.-Although an official funeral, the services in St .. Johns Church today over the body of the late Henry c. Payne, Postmaster General, were marked by impressive simplicity. Official Washington filled the church and brilliant as were the uniforms of the large representation from the army. navy and marine corps. the solemnity of the scene was only enhanced by the sharp contrast of color with the deep mourning of the family and personal friends of the dead cabinet officer.
 Side by side with Mrs. Payne sat the President and Mrs. Roosevelt, both ip deep mourning. In half an hour the funeral procession was winding its way slowly down Pennsylvania Avenue es- corted by the postal carriers of the city of Washington In uniform, to the Pennsylvania station.
 The special train carrying the body and the funeral party left the Penn sylvania station at 3:35 o'clock this afternoon. Secretary Hitchcock, who had expected to go to Milwaukee on the train, was unable to do so and tel ephoned the fact with his regrets early in the afternoon. Secretary of Agri- culture Wilson is the only cabinet of ficer who went with the train but the plans contemplated Secretary Shaw and Secretary Metcalf joining the party later.

IN LAND OF MORMONS
FAIRBANKS AVOIDS SUBJECT OF
 BOLYGAMY.
Mnde Many Speeches From Rear of His Car and Shook Hands With
 One Girl Qualified
 Efector.

Brigham, Utah, Oct. 7.-Senato, Fairbanks spoke here today before E fairs sized audience. He came up from ogden in his special train after re. maining at that place all last night.
 He was accompanied by Senator Dol. liver of Iowa, Senators Shoot and Keans of Utah, Congressman Smith oi Iowa and a large contingent of Utah's < leading representative men. In his address, Senator Fhiaoanks made an appeal for the support of the Republi- can ticket, contending that only by keeping the party in power could the highest degree of prosperity be main- tained.
 He made no reference to the differ ences existing among Republicans fin this State; neither did he refer to the question of polygamy. The anti-Mor- mon wing of the party. however, is quoting a sentence from the Senators speech at ogden last night, in support of their position. The passage is as follows:
 Tn the final analysis the American home is the unit of the republic $ strength; that home wherein presides one mother. where there is gathered about the hearthstone faithful hearts filled with love for the American flag and with adoration fer the institutions of our fathers which have been com mitted tosour highest and most loyal keeping"
 The Senator's speech was cordially applauded as were the speeches of Sem who followed.
 Girls Couldn't Vote.
 Salt Lake City, Oct. 7.-As the special train was preparing to pull out of Brigham, a number of young women employees of an adjacent tomato cam merry came up to shake hands with Sem ator Fairbanks.
 How many of you can voter" asked Senator Deliver.
 Only one confessed that she was old enough to exercise the franchise.
 Be sure you vote the Republican ticket" said the Senator.
 You can bet your life on that" was the reply as the train left the station
 At Farmington, Senators Fairbanks and Deliver made brief speeches from the rear platform of the Edgemoor, and Senator Fairbanks shook hands with the people there congregated.
 The Fairbanks special train arrived in Salt Lake City at 12:15 p. m.. and headed by brass band, Senators Fairbanks and Deliver and the other members of the party were escorted to Salt Lake Theatre, where Senator Fairbanks addressed one of the larg- est crowds seen on the trip. Cover nor Herbert M. Wells presided.
 Besides the immediate members of the party seated on the stage with Senator Fairbanks were Apostles John Henry Smith and Lyman. of the Mormon Chruch. In the audience there were many Norman leaders from all parts of the country who are here in attendance of the sepi-annual con ference of their church.
 In his address Senator Fairbanks spoke of the stability of Republican policies, saying they are the same under Theodore Roosevelt as they were un- der Abraham Lincoln. Not only should a Republican president be elected, but a Republican congress as well.
 After the meeting the Fairbanks party were entertained Tat a luncheon at the Knutsford Hotel at the conclu- sion of which they left for Evanston Wyo.

 Introducing Washington, Robert Treat Paine. president of the congress and toastmaster of the evening referred to him as "honored almost universally throughout this country, but especially in Boston" At this the distinguished company arose and greeted Washing ton as it did no other guests of the evening. Washington was seated at the head of the table beside Miss Lund, daughter of Herr John Lund, of Nor way.
 After acknowledging the unusual and spontaneous reception Washington at once plunged into an earnest denuncia- tion of the wrongs which he declared were being perpetrated upon the blacks of the Congo Free State.
