How LAvAlETTE WAS SAVED.
English Officer Preserved Life of One.
Time Foe.

On the escape of Napoleon from
Glba one of the generals who rejoineC
aim was the brave Gen. Lavalette, a
soldier of great distinction. Wher
Napoleon was defeated Gen. Lava
ette was taken prisoner and barbar
)usly sentenced to death as traitor
And as a traitor he would have beer
executed were it not for Capt. Hely-
hutchinson and two other English sol
Tiers, one Of them being Gen. Wilson
Gen. Lavalette was in prison on the
night before the morning appointed
for the execution, when he was visited
by his wife, daughter and maid
After an affecting interview in the
cell, the generals wife, apparently
vas led forth by her maid in an al
most fainting condition. But it was
really Lavalette himself, who had don
ned his wife's clothes. He was taken
hurriedly to the quarters of Hely'
Hutchinson and his chivalrous cocoon
5pirators, and having been dressed in
the uniform of an English officer he
drove boldly out of Paris and was
speedily across the frontier.

Truth. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1901-1908, 1905-09-30

The Tribune, few days ago, in CIV
ing the figures of the vote or last year
took the highest man of the "Amerl-
can" ticket and the lowest on the RE
publican ticket That is in accord
.,nce with the Tribune's idea of far
ness.
Truth. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1901-1908, 1905-09-30

The Tribune's frantic appeals to the
people to support the American"
ticket is highly amusing especially
when the reasons urged, patriotism,
civic righteousness etc., are consid-
cred, keeping in mind always the
source of the appeals. A more i'm
clean, absolutely principleless trium-
virate than those who direct the Tri-
bune it would be impossible to find.
Furious j., who writes the frantic ed
itorials, proved a traitor to every
cause he ever espoused when it suited
his pecuniary interests or seemed to
favor his personal ambitions. Kearns
hasn't the faintest conception of even
common decency in politics or any
thing else and Foxy Joe's only prin-
ciple is to get money. A truly pretty
trio to be leaders in struggle in
which patriotism and civic righteous
ness are the watchwords.
Truth. [volume] (Salt Lake City, Utah) 1901-1908, 1905-09-30

We wonder how many Mormons will
take the Tribunes advice and support
the American" ticket. Mormons, if
they give aid or comfort to a pn.,,
whose leaders have been in every DOS
sibly way, slandered them, lied about
them, prosecuted them AMI pursued
them and their religion with satanic
hatred, are very different from other
religionists or other men. The Amer.
lean" partys efforts have been and
are directed to again divide the peo-
pie on religious lines, to turn the
wheels of progress back dozen
years. 1t has arrayeI Gentle against
Mormon without cause. Suppose the
Mormons in this state should take I'D
the fight which is being forced upon
them and line themselves solidly
against the Gentiles, the Mormons
could easily capture the entire govern.
mental machinery of the state. They
could elect Mormon judges to the SUI
preme court, the entire membership
of which is now Gentle: thew could
elect Mormon district judges and Nor.
mon prosecuting officers, and make
the Judiciary entirely Mormon. They
could capture all the state offices of
which the Gentiles now have a ma.
Jority in numbers and the highest sal.
aried places too. Nearly all the coun-
ty and municipal offices could be filed
with Mormons. They could control
the educational system of the state
and the cities. They could dominate
the board of education of this city
and turn out the 80 per cent of Gentle
teachers now employed in the schools
and replace them with Mormons.
They could completely Mormonize
the police and fire departments and
with a Mormon judiciary could dom
mate the entire state. With such a
scurrilous, wicked and dastardly fight
as is being made upon them small

Here is a word of cheer for golfers

fear and trembling the ever-advancing
price OF golf Cdlls.
A well-known manufacturer has de-
cided TO reduce the price of his dollar
bail to Sc a dozen; in other words, cut
the price In half The ball that has been
going for $3.50 a dozen will hereafter
sell for $3.50, and the 81 a dozen article

cess, though some OF the universities
may follow the example OF Columbia
and abolish the game so far as their
students are concerned. The fact that
something like twenty men have been
killed and $50 seriously hurt is the
ground on which the proposed action is
based. 1t is probable that with rough
