Pencil Point Causes Death.

Philadelphia Press: A prick
In his finger from the point of
lead pencil caused the death in
the Jewish Hospital yesterday
of lsreal Il. Cohen, Is years old,
of 1921 North End street.
Though the accident occurred
on January 20, nothing was
thought of it until a few DAYS
ago, when the finger, the wound
on which had not healed, began
to swell. The swelling spread
to his arm and then affected his
entire body. After attending
Cohen for two days and finding
himself unable to reduce the
swelling, the family physician
ordered him sent to the hospital,
where the case was diagnosed
Immediately as blood poison
ing.
The disease had so far pro-
gressed that the blood special
lists at the hospital were unable
to save his lie and, suffering in
tense agony, Cohen died yester-
day morning.

Death Of Mrs. Leroy Springs.
After Months Of Suffering
the Devoted Wlie, Affec-
tionate Daughter and Fond
Mother Goes to her Eter-
nal Rest.

This entire community was in
expressibly saddened when it
became known on Wednesday
last that Mrs. Grace White
Springs, the beloved wife of Col.
Leroy Springs, was no more. AL
though her passing away was
not unexpected, the profound
sorrow caused by the sad tidings
was none the less great. Mrs.
Springs's death occurred Tuesday
night at 1880 o'clock at a pri
vate sanitarium in Baltimore,
where for several months she
had been under treatment by
the most skilled and eminent
physicians of this country. For
long and weary weeks she wait
ed with patience for the end to
come and bore with marked
christian fortitude intense pain
and suffering. The devoted hus-
band was constantly at her bed
side, doing and having done
everything possible for her re
lief. AT the trying hour when
her sweet spirit took its flight
the following persons, beside
the heart, broken husband, were
at the bedside: Mrs. ]. M. Odell
of Concord, N. c., her aunt;
Messrs Eli b. and r. A. Springs,
of New York, brothers of Col
Springs; Mr.. j. II. Witherspoon,
of Lancaster, and Miss Irene
Withers, of Savannah Ca, one
of her most intimate friends.
Mrs. Springs was stricken down
in the prime of her noble young
womanhood, during a period OF
her greatest usefulness and whilst
in the enjoyment of life of un-
alloyed pleasure, contentment
and happiness. She was but thir-
ty-three years old, and was mar
ried to Col. Springs when she was
nineteen years of age. She was
the daughter of Capt. Samuel E.
White, formerly of Fort Mill but
now a resident of Lancaster
Her sainted mother, Mrs. Esther
Phifer White, died, it will be re-
called, about four years ago
Beside the grief-stricken hus-
land and father she leaves a son
Master Elliott Springs, an unu
sually bright and manly lad Of
eleven years.
Mrs. Springs was indeed no.

One OF her distinguishing charac
teristics was her sublime devotion
to her loved ones-husband. faith
er and child. Another notable
trait of character was her unvary

The remains of Mrs. Leroy
Springs were laid to rest in
Elmwood cemetery, Charlotte,

Lancaster, S. c.; Leroy S. David

persons from Lancaster attended
the funeral. The Friday After

ters, of which organizations Mrs.
Springs was a member, sent
handsome floral tributes, as did
also several individuals. AS a
mark of respect the posteffice,
stores and other places of busi-

for one hour Thursday afternoon,
from 4 to 5 o'clock.
FUNERAL IN CHARLOTTE.
The Charlotte Observer of
yesterday gives the following
account of the funeral services
and burial in that city:
Seldom, if ever, has there been
held in Charlotte a more impress
sive funeral service, or one more
largely attended by friends of
the deceased, than that held over
the remains of the late Mrs. LIE.
roy Springs. The service was to
have been held at $3.50 O'Clock in
the afternoon, but owing to the
long delay in the arrival of the
train bearing the remains, it was
6 o'clock when the funeral par
ty reached the First Presbyter-
ian church, where the service was
held.
The ministers taking part in
the service were Rev. j. ii.
Thornwell, ID. d., of Fort Mill,
who had known Mrs. Springs
since her childhood, Rev. Chal-
mers Frazier, her pastor, of Lam
caster, and Rev. w. M. Kincaid
ID. d., pastor of the First Presby
terian church, of this city.
The choir rendered beautifully
and impressively "Sometime
Well Understand", Miss May
Courtney Oates singing the solo
parts. The hymns sung were
Lead, Kindly, Light" my
Faith LOOKS Up to Thee" and
"Peace," the last named being
sung as the body was taken from
the church.
DIR. Thornwell spoke touching
ly and comfortingly of the de-
ceased, showing the strength, and
unselfishness of her beautiful
christian character. Speaking
OF the seemingly strange provi
dence shown in the removal o.
such woman from her home
DR.. Thornwell said the hardest
thing for humanity to understand
is that Gods plans are alway,
better for men than are Their
own plans and that it is always
hard TO understand that God.
plans for His glory are Away,
those that are best for men. Ht

vindicating the prophetic choice of him"
self for Chief Executive and is assur'
ing himself of future favor from the
same quarter by his implicit regard for
hicrarchcial will.
Under the peculiar circumstances of
the social convention in this State the
Governorship is more important TO the
Mormon church than the entire lcgls-
lative body. And so long as this situa-
tion remains, and SO long as the church
has the power, it will hold TO that Gov
crnorsip in order that 1T may maintain
the rule of the priests against the rule
of the people.
Mr.. Salisbury would better set his eyes
on Scnatorship. The church Will
never allow him to be Governor, and
the other oificcs-as shown by the Sc
lection of Sutherland-is open TO any
Jack Mormon.

SAN FRANCISCO CASES.

The awful situation Of public life in
San Francisco is robbed Of all its ter
rors to the community by the prompt
activity of justice against the mer.
cenaries.
Evil civic conditions are only dan
gerous so long as they arc permitted
to continue in secret, or without rebuke
if known.
When a community rises in deter
mined resistance TO the wrong commit.
ted, the greater the existing evil, the
more effective and lasting is the as.
sured remedy. 1t is a safe prediction
that before justice shall have complot,
ed her dealings with the San Francisco
boodlers, such punishment will have
been administered az TO furnish warn
ing for a generation. The public con-
science Will not be speedily lulled, nor
will public intelligence drop into slum-
Der.
All the suspicious of bribe giving and
bribe'taking have been more than veri-
fed; all the charges of public graft
have been more than sustained; and,
while the record is tremendous ar
raignment of official life in the City
Of the Golden Gate, the vigor Of the
prosecution is such as to restore San
Francisco's reputation in the land.

THE GENERAL SENTIMENT.

A lady, writing from Waterloo, New
York, to friends in Salt Lake, cy-
presses the sentiment of the Christian
society in which she moves concerning
the vote by the New York Senators in
the Smoot case. Messrs. Depew and
Platt and all who affiliate with them
come under the strongest kind of re-
preheusion; and according to the view
expressed by this talented woman, the
suspicion Of political bargain by
which the Mormon apostle was re.
tained as an ambassador to the Repub.
lie from the polygamous kingdom is
condemned In most positive terms.
simultaneously, word comes from
Kentucky that the former friends and
admirers Of ex-senator Joe Blackburn
were aroused to high pitch Of indig-
nation at what they believe was his
personal bargain for place on the
isthmian canal commission, at the cost
of his integrity as a Senator in vot.
ing for the retention OF Reed Smoot.
These are typical cases illustrative
Of the general sentiment prevailing in
cultured and Christian circles through.
out the country. Not a day passes but

THE DEATH WARRANT.

The Legislature has committed other
errors, but the Governor. fortunately is
in a position TO correct these. as far as
the judicious. exercise OF the veto power
can be applied and IL Will he admitted
that THE power has been exercised with
comnendable discrminati ion.-Deseret
News Editorial.
In that paragraph the Deseret News
pronounces the death warrant upon the
hopes Of o. j. Salisbury to be Governor
of this State, and upon the hopes of
any other member Of the church politi-
cal quorums who is not also member
Of the church religious quorums.
The Deseret News says as plainly az
though it were to put its real views
into real words; ''Thc people and the
peoples representatives are not to be
entirely trusted We allow the voters
and the legislators little room in
which to play with government. 1t is
entertaining and satisfying to them to
think that they run public affairs,
and it does not hurt us. But we keep
at the head Of affairs with firm hold
upon the pen that signs and tho pen
that vetoes, priest Of the church who
takes his entire direction from the
prophets, scers, and revelators, and who
will not allow any measure to become
a law which is not strictly in accord
with the will Of the priests. Our wis.
dom in holding to the Governorship is
demonstrated. From the beginning we
have said that none but plant elder
of the church need apply for this posi-
ton, and that will be our policy to
the end. -
The utter recklessness Of Governor
Cutler and his insolenee to the Legis-
lature would awaken such storm in
any other community as would drive an
Executive from his place Of power; but
here, with radiant serenity, the Gov
ernor reposes himself in the arms of
the prophets-disdaining all obligation
to the people and conscious that he is

POLITICS AND THE COLLEGE.

Colonel I'd. Loose goes on the Board
of Trustees of the Agricultural Col
lege, and President Kerr resigns its
headship This concise statement of
fact is the concluding act III the polit-
ical invasion of that unhappy institu-
ton The Board of Trustees is com
pletely packed for partisan purposes.
President Kerr sees this instantly; 1t
is evident 10 any loo;eron. So Presi'
dent Kerr, a Democrat in politics,
doesn t wait for the thump Of the little
stick. nor for the Smoot boot, but gets
out of range.
1t is exceedingly unfortunate for the
educational interests OF this State that
the open partisauship which has IN
vaded the college should have been
pushed to such lengths by Governor
Cutler. 1t only needs to push this same
pertisanship d little further TO demor'
alize the whole educational system of
the State. II is exceedingly unwise
TO treat our school interests from this
partisan political standpoint, and there
is 30 question but that the State VIII
be the sufferer by If, even though 1t
should go no further.
IL has been commonly and generally
understood that Governor Cutler is in
favor Of the consolidation of the Agri-
cultural College with the State Univer.
sity; and in the propricty, perhaps the
necessity, Of this, many were beforehand
with him. But no one who has the
least sense of fairness or Of what is
due to The public interests, can pos
sibly follow him IN his political parti-
san work with respect TO the Agri.
cultural College. That is something
which NO riGht-thinkiug person can en-
dorse. 1t will have tho support only
of the political hcuchmen. the adhe.
rents and beDefciaries of the boss S
machine
There is another thing that is whi:.
pered quietly in this connection, which
may explain why the politico.ecclcsjas.
tic rulers arc so bitter against Prcsi~
dent Kerr. 1t is known that he has
rejected polvgamv and abandoned for
mer polygamous relations Therefore,
the polygamist deyotees have it in for
him; they will not tolerate traitor -
to their lawless system. IN this view
of the case, and In so far as the war
on President Kerr springs from this
cause, his displacement through the
political packing of the board against
him is a direct and positive victory for
the polygamist cult 1t demonstrates
that this cult is still supreme and is
able to punish those who reject it. by
boycott and ostracisnl.
In any way which the case can he
looked upon it is disastrous situation
in which the unwlse counsel and acts
of Governor Cutler have established
the apparent conflict between the State
administration Of not the State) and
the Agricultural College. That institu~
ton has been made the plaything Of
unscrupulous politicians; and the vim
dictjve ferocity of a hitherto baf1led
dominance has been unloosed upon it
to its grIevous hurt.
