ONE BOY IN PARTY.
A large number of persons converted
K to the Church In the old countries arr
rived at Boston on the Republic, the
Gath of the month. Owing to their
numbers suspicion was aroused among
the immigration officers that the
Church has assisted the newcomers to
#get to America and that they would boz
come public charges when placed upon
American soil. This and the desire of
the officials to make a thorough invcs-
ttgation as to the qualifications of the
arrivals to become citizens of America
caused the holding of the immigrants.
All are women and girls with one OK

CUPID'S PLANS UPSET
Most of these persons are on their
way to Salt Lake and all to Utah towns
where they will join relatives or
friends. Some of the women are to
join sisters, a few, husbands. who pre- |
coded them to America, and Still 9th
els to fill waiting positions as do
mcstics. Walter Bossticld, tho boy, is /,
to be taken into a Dixon family. Flor
ence Buttcrwortn was eager to reach
Roy, where sweetheart awaits her.
The sluggish methods of the immigra- |
ton commission is conflicting with Gu |
pids plans in this Instance. Martha |
Dodgeworth will probably be deported |
because she said she believes in po-
Iygamy. This was during 81 grllling |
examination. While the girl has begged
the officials to pay no attention to tho
remark made by frightened girl,
It Is believed. n certainly that mother
ana daughter will be separated, the
mother to come into America, the
girl to be taken back across the waters.
Her borther and other relatives living
1ere ridicule the idea Of the girl hav-
ng made such a remark, unless fright
,ned.
Mrs. Sadden and her daughter were
planning to hurry to Ogden where
relatives live. Barbara Schiller was
n Providence, Utah. Rachael Smith
$ married and her husband is any
hing but pleased with the turn af-
airs have taken. Ingeborg Steffen-
ZEN is a Norwegian girl an2 has a
married sister In this city, whom she
vas to have Joined.

When so instructed he Will learn Just
