First Mormon Press.

From Leslie's Weekly.
The Mormon church is not very old, as
compared with most other important
ecclesiastical bodies, but it has relics re-
lating to its origin to gather and preserve,
as well as other religious societies. One of
these which has just come into Its possess
sion is the old Washington press upon
which the first edition of the book of Nor
mon was printed. The press has been the
property of Col. Frederick W. Clemmons
of Palmyra, and he has sold 1t to tho
Mormon authorities. In 1929 the press
stood in the office of the Wayne County
Sentinel, and there John w. Gilbert set in
type the translation of the golden plates
alleged to have been discovered by Joseph
Smith three years before in the hill Of
Cumorah, near Palmyra. The purchaser
of the press is Joseph f. Smith of Salt
Lake City, and it is to be housed in the
Mormon tabernacle.

MOURNS.
Body of Late Danish King Taken TO Its
Final Resting Place.

Copenhagen, Feb 16.-The body of King
Christian was removed from the Chris
tanborg church here today to the cathed--
Sunday among the tOmbs of the Danish
kings. who for a thousand years have
found their last resting place in the an
Client capital of the kingdom.
The whole of Copenhagen was given up
to mourning. Business and work were at
a standstill. while emblems of sorrow
were displayed everywhere The enor-
nous crowds of town people, CARRIED in
from the country districts. thronged the
square in front of the ChristianbOrg
church and the route thence to the rail-
way station from early morning, standing
patiently for hours in order to pay a last
tribute 10 the dead monarch. The win
doWs all along the route were filed with
Most of the owners OF such places of van
tage announced their intention of devot-
tan, the proceeds of the sale of seats.
Shortly before noon the Kings of Dem
IilaIh' Greece ano norway. Queen AlesS~
andra, the doWager empress OF Russia
and other royal relatives of the deceased,
and the representatives of foreign SOW
ereigns reached the ChFistianbOrg church
where q brief service was held, at the
conclusion of which the coffin. covered
with the Danish standard, was borne
high by naval and military officers to the
waiting hearse- Then headed by infantry
and cavalry. a simple cortege was formed
and slowly proceeded through three and
a half miles Of street between the church
and the railroad station. Immediately be-
hind the hearse was led King Christian

be shot tonight, according to the ancient
Danish custom.
The procession was closed with car
riages bearing the male members of the
royal families represented at the funeral,
the ladies watching the denarturs of the
body from a neighboring building. The
bells Of all the churches were 1Oiled and
minute guns were fired from the arsenal
throughout the progress of the cortege
and until the coffin was placed on the fu-
neral train.
This was the first time in history that
the body Of a Danish king has been trans
ferred by railroad to the burial place.
At the time of the death OF Frederick
VIII, the predecessor of King Christian in
1853. the use of a railroad train for the
conveyance of the kings body to Roskilde
was not considered sufficiently dignifed.

LOU DILLON WAS DoPED.
oficfal Veterinarian Admits That He
Gave BeIIadOnna.

san Francisco, Feb. ia sensa-
tional affidavit was made here in con-
nection with the race at Memphis be-
tween Major Delmar and Lou Dillon.
The affidavit is sworn to by A II. F'ehr,
a veterinary surgeon, who asserts that
he was official veterinarian of the
Memphis Racing association at the
time the horses contested for the So
600 gold cup.
In his sworn statement Fehr says:
cat the time of the trOttfng race
meeting at Memphis when the cele-
brated race between Major Delmar
belonging to E. E. Smathers, and Lou
Dillon, the property of c. K. G. Bill
ings, was trotted, ! was employed in
the position of official veterinarian of
the association, and was also in the
employ of c. K G. Billings
After the first heat between Major
Delmar and Lou Dillon was trotted, /
was summoned by Murray Howe in a
great hurry. Mr.. Howe seemed ex-
cited. and the first thing he said to me
was that Lou Dillon had an attack of
the sthumps,' or what we technically
term in the profession spasmOdic con-
traction of the diaphragm
Il went to the stall where the mare
had been taken Immediately after the
first heat. She was closely guarded by
a special officer. and Murray Howe,
who was at the time the personal rep
resentative of Mr.. Billings. directed
me to treat the mare for the thumps.

wrong with the mare more than some
nervousness such as any horse would

AFTER THEIR MONEY.
Depositors of Bank Of America Put on
With Usual Promise.

Chicago, Feb. ia crowd of deposit
tors gathered around the door of the
Bank of America, as early as o'clock
today in the hope of securing their
money. Among the number were many
drug clerks, the bank having worked
extensively through the drug stores in
all parts of the city. In many drug
stores notices had been posted inform
ing the public that deposits would be
received at the drug store for the bank
and offers of interest In the institution
were held out to the clerks as induce
ment to secure large deposits. The first
official of the bank to put in an APP
pearance was r. H. Howe, the assistant
cashier. die opened oet8e doors, and
crowd of depositors swaHmed after him.
Mr. Howe made a speech to the deposit
tors saying in substance;
within a week you will receive IS
to 40 per cent of your money, and the
balance within few days after that.
All depOsitors will be paid in full. We
have 500 600 In cash on hand and some
securities that will be disposed of with
in a week There is not she slightest
fear that any of the depOsi6ors will lose
any of their money"
When asked as to the cause of the
trouble Mr.. Howe replied:
THE cause of the failure is injudicious
loans. All money received after 3 o'clock
yesterday has been put aside and Gus
toners can have it at any time they
Receiver HeaIy, who appeared at the
bank a short time after Mr.. Howe had
addressed the depositors. confirmed the
statements made by him.
Il have no doubt" he said, that all
the depositors viii be paid in full. We
are making arrangements to care for the
savings accounts at once. but the COM
merciaI depositors viii be compelled to
wait for a few days until we know just
where matters stand"
President Abner Smith today deplored
the fact that he should at his age have
been brought into an affair of this kind.
H4 said:
L got into this thing through my
connection with some real estate loans.
Everything would have been all right
if the stockholders had not squabbled
as to who had and who had not paid
in full for stock.
