PIeRdinEE.

WASHINGTON. April 12-Arguments in
the case Of Senator Reed smoot were be-
gun today before the senate committee on
privileges and elections after inquiry
extending over three years into his right
TO return his seat Former Secretary Of
the Treasury John G. Carlisle opened for
the protestants. He will be followed BY
A. S. worthington of the counsel for Mr.
Smoot. The members of the committee
present were Chairman Burrows and
Messers Foraker, Knox. Dolliver, Dilling-
ham. Dubois, Bailey, Overmsn, Frazier and
Pettus.
The committee room was crowded, most
Of the spectators being women. Mr.. Smoot
was present, as well as several prominent
Mormons who have assisted Mr. smoot in
his defense. The Utah senator apparently
was not concerned as to the outcome of
the proceedings.
Mr. Carlisle reviewed first the testimony
of President Joseph Smith and other Nor
mon officials to show that the first presi-
dency and the twelve apostles are a self
perpetuating body responsible for every
thing that is done, either spiritual or tenn
poral.
Mr.. Shoots membership in this body,
asserted Mr.. Carlisle. made him equally
laws of the nation. He said the Mormon
church is more than a church; it is a
commercial and political organization. He
criticised at some length church control
! over candidates. for its public Offices and
asserted that the situation is such that
! the politics of Utah can be dominated by
| the Mormon church at will.
Senator Knox inquired of Mr. Carlisle
| whether he contended that the laws of tn,
| church require members to submit to thu
| Jurisdiction of the church laws when II
| conflict with the laws of the state and ma
ton. Mr.. Carlisle replied that was his con
| tentlon and that the officers of the churcl
could do nothing without the consent o
the apostles, of which Mr. Smoot is one.
Speaking of the endowment house oath
| Mr.. Carlisle admitted that he did not know
the exact form of the obligation taken, bu
he believed it could not be disputed tina
some oaths of the character described o.
several witnesses Is administered and tina
each person taking the ceremony assume
an obligation to avenge the blood Of th
prophets upon this nation.

The greater part of Wednesday after
moons meeting of the union was devoted
to a discussion of the remodeling OF the
city jail and conditions prevailing there
Some time ago the union, in written
communication to the Board of Fire and
Police commissioners, asked that women
prisoners in the city jail be completely
separated from the men. In reply the
women were assured that the remodeling
of the city Jail then in process would ac-
complish such a separation. A commit
tee from the union visited the Jail re-
Gently and Wednesday afternoon reported
that the new arrangements while admit
ting of more privacy, is still far from
what is desirable, for conversation between
the women and men prisoners may still
be carried on. A communication was or
dered sent to the police commissioners call
ing attention to this fact and asking more
privacy for toilet and bath conveniences,
also that a night matron be installed

nUR VISITORS.

The American Institute of Instruc- tion has been heartily welcomed to New Haven. Even the capricious weather smiled yesterday, after sadly indicating that it couldn't think of do- ing such thing. We hope all the in structors will have thoroughly good time here without feeling obliged to be oppressed by weighty sense of what they know and what the instructed don't know. They have just finished school year, and they need the rest and recreation they can get here. Of course they will have to listen to good deal of instructive talk, but there will also be much friendly and pleasant talk which will, perhaps do them as much good as the solemn kind,
 New Haven is at her prettiest, and the instructors will find that she has much to please them in herself and her surroundings. She is becoming fam ous as a convention city, and there are good and sufficient reasons why she should be, as our visitors this week will discover She is as pretty and pleasant as pretty and pleasant young in- structor of the pretty and pleasant kind, and she can teach some too.

DOLORIMETR I.

Those who want pain accurately meas ured will be pleased with the work done by Paris physician, and the possibility of much other work in the same line. This physician has invent ed a dolorimeter. He was prompted to work out the plan of his measuring machine ny the terrible extent to which cruelty towards horses is daily witness ed in the Paris streets. His opinion is that, though the drivers and others in charge of horses are brutal toward them, 1t is due to stupidity and ignor- ance rather than malignant intent; and he hopes Dolorimetry may enable them to see with their own eyes the evidence of the grave physical effects Of their action. The dolorimeter shows, for in- stance, that the dynamic force of a sharp cut with an ordinary carter's whip is equal to about two hundred and eighty-five pounds, and that a vigorous jerk at the reins brings a pressure of about three hundred and five pounds on the horses head.
 The physician believes that a wide dissemination of facts and figures ot this character will tend to stir horse. men to improve their manner ant methods of treatment of their horses When further developed and applied it may also be the treatment of human beings some good, though perhaps i will never reach the "painless" methods of doing some things.

TRICKS OF couNr Mrrrr.

Count Witte of Russia isn't what
 some people have cracked him up to be, if a writer in the Neues Wiener Tagblatt can be believed He dilates upon the readiness with which Witte
 found 8 new formula to explain his changing attitude towards the Liberal and even toward the ultra revolutionary movement according as his position seemed safe or precarious. A typical case was his treatment of the agrarian question. He appointed a former financial official, M. Kutler, to be minister of agriculture, and instruct ed him to draft a bill for the eonpul- sorry appropriation of the large landed proprietors. The bill met with strong opposition, and Count Witte, declaring that it had been drawn up without his knowledge, threw the author overheard. The Czar's personal dislike of him is attributed by the writer to Count Wit te's habitual practice of shielding him. self behind the Imperial authority. When he had privately persuaded the Czar to take this or that course he would find an opportunity to say to the Czar in the presence of the other min isters, Your Majesty has chosen a 8o- lution of the question at issue. Other solutions might have offered certain ad- vantages, but now the matter is settled by your AIajestys decision" At the Portsmouth conference Count Witle was ready to pay Japan large money indemnity but would relinquish no ter
 ritory. The final settlement was ar.
 ranged between President Roosevelt and the Car, through MT. Meyer, the

THE PURSUIT OF THE IDEAL,

This world isn't all business, or if 1t is the business in some cases Is fairly well concealed. A French artist has come to this country to find his ideal woman. He caught a glimpse of her in Paris, and he has q notion that she lives in the United States. He is going to find her if she is here and his money and zeal hold out. He says love, he is sure, will guide him to the woman if he is really destined for her. He will not seek meeting save with the most conventional propriety, and should his admiration not be reciprocated he will retire from the field, gallantly but re- spectfully
 How's that for high! We don't know just what this apparently romantic Frenchman wants, but there is no doubt that he has come to the right shop for ideal women. There are millions of them in this country, and some of them also have sordid money. If the French man has good luck he may be able to pick up some of 1t, as well as to find his ideal woman. And he may be found by her while he is incoming around. If he is it will be all day with him. It will be interesting to see what happens | to him

THE TRuNK- KEY ELUSIVE.

She is a very unusual woman who knows where her trunk key she's about to start on a journey. Men have many advantages over their sisters, but none greater than that of owning key ring.
 If woman had a key-ring, and a chain to carry it on, and a pocket to keep it in, she would not be so unpopu- lar with her masculine relatives in the summer time. But she has none of these things.
 When she comes home from a trip she puts the key to her trunk carefully in small box. The small box she places in Q large box in the left hand corner of her top bureau drawer.
 There comes a time when she needs the small box, and so she takes the key out of it and keeps it in the big box for while.
 Later she needs the large box-to

 The she prepares to go travelling, and at the last minute-the very last min ute, when the congressman is at the door-her trunk-key cannot be found.
 It is at this moment that her mas culine kinfolk revile her whole sex. They ask why woman was made if not to torment the souls of men. They ask why women go travelling, why they don't have pockets, and why they don't remember where they put things, all in one breath.
 In the end, these remarks not serv- ing to bring forth the key, the trunk is carried forth, an unlovely thing, tied up with bit of clothes line to keep its contents from failing out and enraging the expressman.
 The owner of the trunk swears to herself that never, never again such a contretehps occur; that she will hang on to her key thenceforth and forever as if she has been welded to it-but alas for the ways of femininity she doesn't. The next time she allows herself trip the key is gone again.
 The number of embarrassing situa, ttions which have resulted from the mislaying of trunk-keys is degion Thus there was an American girl whC was travelling abroad. she Arrived il London when the noon-day sun wa shining, and had her lightly strapped trunks placed on top of cab and talk en to the hotel In front of the hotel ; l large crowd of new arrivals haC gathered, and the girl, after alighting l turned to watch the cabman take he

 It was terrible moment for that American girl, and after she and the cabman together had picked up her possessio hand stuffed them back, the girl decided that she just couldn't stay at that hotel-and she didn't.
 The uses of the trunk key should be sung in song and told in story, but even then, no doubt, woman would not learn it's value-until she lost hers Baltimore News.

Some of the More Attractive Routes
 Features of the Roads
 Vermont, with excelenlt roads and fine mountain and lake scenery, should attract many automobilists who seek sane and full enjoyment of the high way rather than speed records. Small as Is the State, 1t offers at least half dozen runs of hundred miles or more which are well worth while Of these, the trip from Bennington through Rutland to Burlington, disclosing the beauties of the Green Mountains is perhaps most worthy Of detrailed des- cription.
 Starting from the Battle Monument on North Street, one crosses the bridge over the Walloomsac River and takes turning to the right just after cross ing another bridge a very short dis tance beyond. The new road leads over the railroad tracks, after which there is straight run to South Shaftsbury and Shaftsbury. After one leaves the lat ter place by the right fork the railroad is crossed and recrossed, and the road parallel with the track is followed through the Arlington to Sunderland Here, after a journey of twenty miles one leaves the railroad and bears away to the left until the pretty little town of Manchester is reached. The road is still to the north, west of the railroad, ! past Barnumville to East Dorset where the railroad tracks are again near all the way through North Dorset, Danby, South Wallingford, and Wal | lingford,
 At this last place the railroad is crossed and Otter Creek is followed through Clarendon and up Kelley Road. until the outskirts of Rutland are reached, when the stream is crossed at
