The story told by Rice yesterday to
Judge Trask was pitiful one, the
story OF an old man trying to live with
young woman, and following it's re-
eital the judge was not slow to grant
the decree.
Rice, according to his story, was
married February 21, 1904, and started
his honeymoon on the birthday of the
father of his country.
The disturbances in the Rice house,
hold, however, were many and It was
not long before the pretty and youth
full Mrs. Rice No. 3 had learned that
her more aged husband was not as
wealthy as she had first supposed and
that, in fact he had very little of the
money Trouble then began, and It
eliminated when, according to Rice, his
wife deserted him on April Fools day
of last year, since which time he has
been unable to hear from her.
According to his statements in court
yesterday, his first wife died, his
second and third wives deserted him.

Several leaders of the revolution
arrived here today from various parts
of the island for the purpose, it is
said, of attending meeting tonight
at the home of General del Castillo.
They would not discuss the object of
the gathering but it is said that the
rebel generals intend to make urgent
requests to Secretary Taft for official
positions under the provisional gov
eminent. 1t is considered significant
that the rebels who served under Cas-
tello have been instructed not to sell
their horses, and it is feared that del
Castillo has a wild idea of enforcing
his demands for position under the
provisional government.
Governor Taft announced today
that the provisional governments
policy would be the removal of the
detachments of rural guards from any
points at which signs of i'll feeling
developed.
The difficulties at Cienfuegos have
been settled.

FLAY MORMONS
Hot Shot for POlygamists by
Church Leaders

Boise, Idaho, Oct. 1.-THE Nor.
mon question in Idaho was brought
to the attention of Presbyterians of
Idaho at the session of yesterday af-
ternoon and evening. The Presby-
terrain synod proper devoted most of
its time today to routine business. It
was in the meeting of the women's
synodical conference and in the meet
ing in the evening, held under the
auspices of the women's organiza
ton, that interest centered. At both
of these meetings the Mormon ques
tion was brought up. In the wom-
ans meeting Mrs. c. Z. Brainerd Of
Payette spoke on 1.-THE Problem of
Idaho" She held that the great
problem of the state was the Mormon
question. She did not touch upon
politics in a direct manner, but she
said it was discouraging to find that
women generally took so little inter
est in the subject. She urged that 1t
be given more attention.
Mrs. McNiece of Salt Lake, presi-
dent Of the synodical conference, en-
dorsed al Mrs. Brainard said. She
urged that women take more active
interest in the subject.
REV. CLEMENsoN ON MORMONs.
At the evening meeting an address
W as delivered by Rev. n. E. Clemen-
so n of Logan, Utah. He said Nor
mons were apostates from Christian
ity, the better part Of them having
been converted from the Christian
churches to Mormonism by proselyt
ing elders. They are therefore pos
sessed Of the ordinary virtues held in
common by civilized people.
He sharply distinguished between
the people and their system, holding
that they are better than their relig.
ion. The responsibility for peFpet-
ual conflict between Mormons and so
ciety, their disregard for human law
and constant clash with the civil gov
eminent, their practice and defense
of crime and their encrnachment up
on the political rights of Other citi
zens are due not TO the inherent law
lessness Of the MormOns as q people,
hut to the pagan character Of their
religious doctrines and their belief in
a so called inspired priesthood, i'm
plicit o bedience to which is the first
i duty and the highest virtue.
Could the Mormons be emancipated
from priest rule and be induced e
relin quish the pagan tenets of thiel
creed, they would at once become

CONTRACTS ARE SIGNED

Rev. Jesperson, of Spokane, presi
dent of the Swedish Lutheran col
lege, was visitor in the city today
pm business in connection with that
institution. Among other business
transacted was the singing of the
agreements between the Commercial
club and the college. All the re-
quirements have been filled by the
college, and it is up to the CONNER
cial club to do their part and pro-
duce the $4,000. Rev. Jesperson
Stated that some work would be COM
menced by the first of the year in the
music and business courses and that
the work on the first wing of the
building would be commenced next
summer, and would be completed in
time to hold school next September.
Funds have been raised for the
Old Folks Home at Mcclellan and
work will be commenced on that in
stitution some time this winter. As
planned it will be an ideal place for
old people to spend their time and
nothing will be spared to make them
comfortable and happy. Those who
desire will be allowed to erect cot
tages near the main building, and
live there after their own manner, as
long as they do not infringe upon the
rules of the institution. He was very
enthusiastic over this project and
will devote much time to it.
He also arranged for an addition tc
be known as College addition, locat'
ed near the college site. This will
be promoted by the Taylor Bros. and
persons who are connected with the
college and desire to live near there,
will be able to purchase lots and erect
their own homes.

good citizens.
He entered into a careful delinea-
tion of Mormonism, claiming 1t TO
be profound system Of philosophy ;
a closely related and we'll considered
theology; a social organism Of indie
pendent character; a commercial in.
stitution as well organized and as
carefully managed as a modern trust !;
a political machine which Is able TO
vote its peolpe as q suit and control
politicians with absolute precision /;
an hierarchy of solid formation and
despotic power; an Rnimalism which
places the crown on the dual home,
thereby degrading womanhood, out
raging childhood, and of ering insult
TO the Christ and home; a bIasphemy
which in its temple ritual degrades
the Deity and defames the Christian
church.
A TREASONABLE ORGANIZATION
He spoke Of 1t as reasonable or
rganization, administering an oath OF
vengeance against the federal govern.
ment to this effect:
"You and each Of you covenant
and promise that you will pray, and
never cease to pray Almighty God "a
avenge the blood of the prophets and
especially that of Joseph and Hiram
Smith, upon this nation, and that
you will teach the same 10 yDur
children, within the third and fourth
generation. All DOW your heads and
say yes, >" which Is done.
Concluding DIR. Clemsnson said
that the troll BILE was due to the evils
Of Mormonism, it's enrcroachments
through the priesthood ON the politi.
cal and natural rights Of citizens, Its
constant lawless practices, it's insult
to womanhood and It's antagonism Of
the Christian church and the eiviliz-
ing forces Of modern society.
