Cannon in Luck.

Because he accused the president
OF the Mormon church of encourag-
ing polygamy, using the tithes for
his own personal aggrandizement
and of other offenses, Senator
Frank Cannon of Utah, now editor
OF the Lalt Lake Tribune, has been
dlsfellowshipped-cut off from the
Mormon church. And this isn't all.
In addition to being excommuni-
Gated, 1t is reported great pressure
is being brought to bear on the
executors eof the will of the late
George q Cannon, father of the ex-
senator, in an effort to cut off the in
heritance Of Frank J Cannon, in

making that possible il case of
apostasy All this fuss and fume
serves TO emphasize the charge re-
peatedly made, and as often denied,
that the church leaders seek to con

politics and socially.
Mr.. Cannon wrote two editorials s

the charges above referred to; aud

argument, too, because no great
Hort was made to disprove the

That E1opement.

and Bob Owens were married the
latter part of last week at Riddle
by justice oil the peace, and that
on Saturday last the pair were put
under arrest by Deputy Black Who
had traced them to the Duck valley
metropolis.
The groom, we are informed, was
arrested on kidnapping charge, it
being alleged by the former guar
dians of the young lady that she is
only about fifteen years Of age.
Friends Of the groom, however, de-
clare she is nearly, if not quite,
eighteen years of age.
Nearly two weeks have passed
since the marriage license was
issned, at which time the Wilkins
family notified the officers here and
in various points in both Elmore
and Owyhee counties to cause the
arrest Of the couple, as well as warn.

O1denburgh Horses.

The horre education Of some
people is quite extensive; others
haven't any horse sense, and the
writer belongs to the latter clase.
However, few people fail to admire
beauty in animals, and very re-
Gently we have been permitted to
look upon and admire some of the
kings and queens Of the equine
kingdom, brought to Mountain
Home by Messrs. Garrett & De
Coursey. We don't know whether
the energetic and tireless Garrett
knows shucks about horsss, but De
Coursey knows shucks and then
some. These gentlemen are heavy
investors in good horsefesh, their
faith being pinned to the Oldena
burgh, of which kiugly race they
have in their stables the following
splendid representatives:

The history Of the Oldenburgh is
marvelously Interesting, dating back
in the history Of the grand duchy
to the fifteenth century, when au-
thentic accounts of the beautiful
Oldenburgh horse were written by
Handmann. Successive earls of the
grand duchy continued to improve
the breed OF horses, expending vast
sums in the establishment of horse
fairs and in teaching the less wealthy
how to improve the breed.
Bringing here of such an excel
lent breed means much to Idaho
and particularly this county, which
in the brief space of half dozen
years may confidently count on
a strain of horses unsur.
passed anywhere in the world.
In short while Messrs. Garrett
u DeCoursey will remove their stud
to the ranch, the quarters at the
barn in the city being too confined,
while charge Of their livery barn
will be turned over to Frank Bovd,
believed to be the best liveryman

YELLOW FEVER
RACES AT PANAMA.
SITUATION HAS GROWN SERI-
GUS ON THE ISTHMUS.
FIVE DEATHS ARE REPORTED
The Problem Is one That Cannot be
Handled by the Administration
But only by the Health Officials says
The American Minister.

New York-Mr. John Barrett, the
American Minister to Panama has
given out statement in which he de-
clares that the situation is becoming
serious if not really alarming on the
Isthmus.
There have been five fatal cases Of
yellow fever at Colon during the past
few days, it is said, but up to the
time that they made their appearance
it was considered that the situation
was we'll in hand, and that there was
to be no epidemic of the scourge.
~ do not believe" said Mr.. Bar
rett, "in deceiving the public in such
matters as this. 1t is far better that
the truth should be known and the
existing conditions fully set forth.
The case is not one for pessimism nor
for cure by the engineering force en-
tirely. 1t is not an administration
problem that is confronting us, ell
ther. 1t is one of health, sanitation
and climate, and the latter is very
much against us.
CDR. George is doing everything
possible, and considering the enormous
number of employees on the Isthmus,
itsis really wonderful that there has
not been greater percentage Of i'll
ness. But you know how these things
are. If one has malarial fever noth-
ing would be thought Of it, but if a
case or two of yellow fever appears.

HAPPE NINGS
In MISSISSIPPI
fTEMs OF INTEREST FROM ALL
SECTIONS.
AN EPITOME OF THE NEWS
Uulled From the Important Happen
ings Throughout the State During
the Past Week and Reviewed In
Brief.
In Gala Attire.

The Hill City is in gala attire, every
business house in the city is decorated
in flags and bunting and welcome is
written in large letters everywhere.
Forty-two years ago battle and car
mage ragged where now is peace, JOY
and good fellowship. The air resound-
ed on that occasion with whistling
shot and shrieking shells. The inhab-
itants were entrenched in caves on
the hill-sides and Grants gun-boats
lay in the river hurting their messen-
gers of death and destruction into the
city. The famous siege Of Vicksburg
has been written and rewritten. To-
day, however, while the city is invad-
ed by an armed host of northern sol
diers they bear arms with the consent
Of the government of Mississippi and
their mission is one Of the most peace
full possible, being there to pay trib-
ute to the honor and glory Of their
dead left on the field of battle an af-
terwards buried in the national Gem
etery near there. The first regiment
Of the Ohio National Guards reached
there over the Valley Railroad in a
special train. 1t is composed of 765
officers and men in heavy marching or
der. When their train rolled into the
station thousands of people were there
to give them a true Southern welcome
Governor Herrick and his staff, ac-
companied by Hon. Charles Grosven-
or, of Ohio, arrived on a second sec
ton. In addition to the citizens and
the appointed committee the special
trains were met by the local military
companies and others Of the National
Guard Of Mississippi and the parade
was indeed an inspiring sight. The
people of this city have never before
seen Northern and Southern troops
marching in the same column, accom-
panied by the same music and equally
dividing the plaudits of the people.
The Governor of Ohio is, in addition
to his military staff, accompanied by
over three hundred old veterans and
citizens Of Ohio who have taken the
long trip to be present at the dedica-
