with this sweetheart. who, like her
lover. remained true to the last to a
courtship that was never eliminated.

Miss Eva Jackson. the legatee of
Miss Mary Harden, states that this
manuscript was not buried with the
one-time and all-time sweetheart of
the author OF Home, Sweet Home"
She also says that she prepared the
body for interment and knows where
of she speaks. That she saw it just
before Miss .Harden's death, she Is
certain. Then came the disappearance
with the unsolved mystery.
But some there are who believe that,
realizing the time was fast approach

and faded copy, the Georgia sweetheart
of John Howard Payne herself destroy

meant for the eyes of the idly curious,

Men Who Contributed to Demo
cratic Campaign Fund
Again Talk.
TELL HOW CONTRIBUTIONS
WERE OBTAINED LAST YEAR
Money Did Not Reach the Men,
but Went Directly to
Campaign Fund.

When asked yesterday about receiving
an extra days pay 80 that he might
! contribute TO the Democratic campaign
fund last year, Thomas Robinson made
the following statement: mo | did not
receive the extra days pay, but it went
TO the campaign fund. Just tho same.
When tho proposition was presented to
me that | should pay into the Democratic
campaign fund / refused to do So al
though L was spoken to about tho mat
ter several times. | refused TO make any
contribution, and 0nally I was told thnt
an extra day would be added to my time
and that the pay for that day would be
taken out. When l went to get my pay
the man In the Treasurers office said
TO me: There Is nn order hero against
you for "a for a contribution TO the cam
paign fund. Is II all right 7 then
asked him how much WAS coming to me
without that, When he told me / knew
that was receiving pay for all the time
that had worked and so ! told him 1t
was all right as for as I was concerned
] felt that 1t was none OF my business
how they juggled the payrolls. 1 do
think, however, that it ia unfair for the
Selt Lake Herald TO charge that we are
dishonest for accepting pay which we
did not earn. for the simple reason that
we did not accept It, as 1t never reached
our hands, but went directly into tho
campaign fund"
Charles Harmon, ono OF the signers
OF the statement submitted by Council
man Black to tho Council, when asked
what his version Of the matter was said:
while no direct proposition to add an
extra days pay to my time was made to
me, 1 was given to understand that X /
paid my assessment OF 10 per cent into
tho campaign fund / would not be tho
loser. ] refused to pay until the very
last. although | was spoken to several
times in regard to the matter. Finally,
tribution l would not lose anything my
self. On November 8, when / got my
pay, 1 went to the office of the street
supervisor and paid the money to Mr..
Nelson the clerk, and he gave me his
receipt for it." Mr.. Harmon was then
asked If he had not been paid for any
time during the month OF October which
he did not work. Mr., Harmon replied;
Eyes, l am sure that l received pay for
about two days in which 1 did no work
1t rained some during the month and l
knew at the time that l was paid for
more days than l had worked
James Knight, who also signed the
statement, when questioned In regard to
the matter. said: Il do not know whether
any extra time was added to my pay.
did not keep track OF the number OF days
I had worked and so am unable to say
1 received pay for moro time
than l had worked. | do know, however,
that l was given distinctly to under |
stand that II l made contribution OF 10 |
per cent OF my wages that l would not |
lose anything myself, and SO 1 went TO |
the Office OF the street supervisor and |
paid my money 10 Mr.. Nelson. the clerk, |
and he gave me a receipt for IT.

possible, and ri1emen, markers and
range officials ran for shelter. The range
officers In charge notified the executive
ofhcer that the targets were practically
invisible, but the latter oflcial insisted
that the match be continued. Only about
one-third Of the riflemen consented to
return to the firing line and soon after
the executive officer ordered firing to
cease. 1t was then officially announced
that the match was declared off and
would be a tenshot instead Of twenty
