There rs a strain of oldtime chival-
ry in Prince Louis that has figured
largely as an incentive to his deeds
of daring He may be said to have in-
herited it from his father, the late
duke Of Aosta who was such VIVID
reminder Of the knights Of the middle
ages that he seemed to be out Of place
in modern government
Elected to the throne OF Spain,
which he accepted only with the ut
most reluctance and from a sense Of
duty, he contemptuously abandoned it
after three years, rather than submit
to political compromises which were
rendered necessary by the situation,
but which constituted too great a
strain upon his conscience.
King Amadeus Respected.
The Spaniards are perhaps the
proudest nation in Europe, and the
people are imbued with a sense Of per-
sonal dignity which is carried often
times to absurd lengths. The disdain-
full manner in which King Amadeus
flung aside his scepter and doffed his
crown because he could not reconcile
his notions Of honor and chivalry with
theirs created a profound impression
among them. Although he was never
loved, it is doubtful whether Spain
ever had a ruler more deeply and uni
versally respected,
The ex-king was the only prince Of
the blood of his day who could claim
the tue Of a battle-scarred veteran,
and who could boast of having been
wounded in action. This was in the
battle Of Cusstozza, in the war Of 1866
in which he commanded one of the d.
visions Of the third corps Of the
Italian army. His son, the duke Of
the Abruzzl too, bears honorable
marks Of injuries sustained on the bat
tlefields, not Of war but Of geograph
ical science. One Of his hands lacks
three fingers, frozen of in his memor
able Polar expedition. The account ol
that trip, by the way, is entitled Far
ther North Than Nansen."
The duke was born in Madrid, while
| his father had the throne 1t was
only a few days prior to the abdicatior
Of Amadeus, and he was baptized no
only as a prince of Savoy, but also ai
an infanta Of Spain.
His Name Free from Scandal.
Clean.lived and with his name un
touched by any kind Of scandal, he en-
tertains the most romantic affection
for his aunt, Queen Marguerite, WHIT
played the part Of a mother to hin
after the death Of Queen Victoria
while he was yet in infancy He ha
shown his devotion in many touching
ways When he scaled and explores
Ruwenzori he gave her name to it

brothers, the two elder being the duk
of Aosta and the count Of Turin HI

the fact that be has met personally the
expenses of his various expeditions,
but there Is still more property yet to
be divided among the brothers. He
has a private income from his moth
er's estate Of about $4,000 a year AS
an admiral Of the royal navy, he re-
ceives an annual salary Of about
$4,000 and from the royal treasury he
receives close to 100000 q year
AS the duke spends nearly all his
time exploring the wilds and the most
dangerous corners of the world it is
reasonable to suppose that his wife
will be his companion in his future
expeditions. AS Miss Elkins is a thor
ough sportswoman, she is doubtless
as capable as any man Of scaling
mountain peaks. She has even inti-
mated to some Of her very intimate
girl friends that she and the duke will
spend their honeymoon in an expedi-
tion to some out of the way corner Of
the globe.
Met at Washington Ball.
The duke met Miss ElEins at ball
in Washington given by Mr.. and Mrs.
Aarz Anderson. Col. Bromwell, aide
to President Roosevelt, introduced the
handsome young Italian prince t. the
senator's daughter.
Everybody in Washington exerted
themselves to entertain the duke when
he was here officially, but it was left
to Miss Elkins to make the ten-strike.
Let me do something for you" she
said chatting one day with the duke,
'Tll give you a dinner, a dance or a
theater party"
I'll take them all" answered the
duke promptly.
So, one day, many Of the friends Of
Miss Elkins received cards to a dinner
in honor Of the duke Of the Abruzzi
After the dinner Miss Elkins an
nounced that they would attend the
theater, and off they were whirled in
autos After the theater the entire
party was whizzed up to Rauscher's
the sherry's of Washington, where
Miss Elkins had invited a party fol
dancing
To his amazement the duke had en-
joyed dinner, the theater and (
dance all in one evening.
But that is nothing new for Mis-
Elkins. She has always had her owl
way. She is the only daughter of th'
senator by his second marriage. Sh'

Of visit to Washington by business man of
Salt Lake City, Philip N. Nelson the Washington
Herald says:
Speaking of the Mormons, Mr.. Nelson said that
the first presidency of the Mormon church had
recently through communication Of sem-secret
nature promised the members of the church that
certain revelations and principles that had been laid
aside for a time would shortly be resumed
"This," added Mr.. Nelson, us construed to mean
a revival of po1ygamy. The letter, intmating the
promise Of the reestabishment Of polygamy and the
threat to drive from the church the 1.-THE payers

of the Mormon church, and Anthony H. Lund and

statement ever issued by the president of their
church
"Rurnors have been rife in Salt Lake City for
three months that orders have been issued by the
presidency of the church that the younger element
among the Mornons who drawing away be whip
ped into line. The promise made, however, that
those principles of the faith of the church which
the church has been forced to lay aside for time

The things which Brigham is especially known to
have done for others, were indirectly for himself
evidently. The more prosperous his people WERE
the larger the in Christian tithing G. Cor
9:7) The most selfish earth would do as
much as that.
Brigham Young is particularly known as an ex-
ponent of polygamy, as the suggestor of that i'll
fated hand-cart expedition across the plains, and
teacher, in unmistakable terms, of the Mormon
doctrine of od-atonement." He said in regard to
this doctrine g. of D. PIP. 1884, Vol ~: "The
wickedness and ignorance of the nations forbid this
principle" blood atonement being in full force, but

and it is necessary to spill his blood on the earth,

way to love mankind" This speaks for itself. If

not interfered, the inference is that still per-

person who told that he had heard the doctrine
preached-and always with the significant gesture of
drawing the hand across the throat. Only few
months ago, [ spoke to a representative Mormon
about this doctrine, and he replied by asking, if
would not rather be put to death than lose my soul?
Of course l would, but if a man should say that he
would rather be shot than hung, his preference would
not establish the necessity of doing either. William
Bulge also defends the doctrine in a tract. Thus
it is very evident that of deeply indebted
to the so-called "wickedness and ignorance of the
nations for preventing the practice of this princi-
pie Otherwise might long ago have been trans
ferred to the eternal world.
Yes Brigham Young made his mark" but it was
a very black mark No amount of labor in applying
moral whewash ever make him anything but
infamous when all of the facts fairly considered
1t is therefore the greatest possible kindness to try
and persuade Mormons to abandon a system of relig
ion, which produces such characters and those who
endorse their wicked practices.

JUNE BRIDES IN JULY.

THE cartoonists conception of what
the. June bride will be doing in July
is a scene of pandemonium, disaster
and distress in the kitchen. The bis
cults burnt have been discarded to the
coal scuttle The alcohol lamp and
tri ood with teapot highly polished as
| it stood among the presents at the
wedding, has been placed over the gas
flame Of the stove, and the tea refuses
to boil The three minute sand glass
for assistance in boiling eggs has been
placed in the water with the eggs, but
refuses to boil them because the wa
ter has not been heated. A distracted,
woebegone slip of a girl is consulting a
cook book with manifest frenzy, and
a youthful countenance attached to q
built dog pipe, under the impression
that this kind of connection makes q
man, inquiries: What is the matter

Cartoonists always do see the worst
side of life, but they have become the
most powerful sermonizers we have
today. How many parents, wondering
what to do with 10 to 15-year-old boys
and girls, have thought to inquire of
themselves, What will the June bride
being doing in July?" If they would
answer this question, there would be a
program laid out in million homes
which would make the coming three
months the most practical period of
edueation Young America has ever ex-
perienced.

pass no more important law than one
protecting the finny tribe. And the first
clause Of the law should shorten the
fishing season. It is especially import
ant to further delay the date Of the
opening Of the season. 1t is not SO bar
barous to kill female fish before they
spawn, as 1t is to kill game birds when
rearing their young. but 1t is the best
way to hasten the total determination
Of the fish.
In order to protect all kinds Of fe-
male fish, the season should not open
until July first Then it should close
by at least November Is. This would
conserve the resource and at the same
time afford the anglers sufficient
pleasure. The laws at present limit the
number caught, prescribe the method,
and provide other regulations, and
these should be enforced to the letter.
1t is difficult to see why there should
be any hesitancy on the part Of the
lawmakers to pass other measures
similar to those in other up-to-date
states. The laws could certainly be se-
cured If every man who hopes to see
the sport remain possible would do his
part in the matter.

GOVERNOR =CUMMINs.


This is a good time for harmony in
Iowa. 1t is a good time for the friends
of Governor Cummins to show the
other fellows that they are republicans
under all circumstances. This paper
announced before the primaries that
it was for the ticket, and 1t is Just as
strong for it. now that 1T is over, as
IT ever was before. The conten-
tions that have divided the party
should now cease. We have all had
orr fight and It is time. to call 1t off.
The Journal would have liked to see Mr..
'Cummins win, but The did not and that
should end the struggle. This paper
has been one OF the strongest friends
that Governor Cummfns has had in
the state; it believes in his principles,
and did all within its power to secure
his election but now Iowa republicans
must get together and drop factional
feelings and support the ticket.
Governor Cummins Is great char
acter; he is one Of the noble men
