ers Of the occasion We're Elders Thorn
as Hull and Brigham S. Young, the
latter being Il visitor to this city from
his home i'll Canada. The mission Of
4 the Prophet Josepuh Smith was dwelt
upon by Elder Hull, who read from
revelations contained in the Doctrine
4 and Covenants and made comparison
Of tl1e principles and doctrines Of the
4 Latter-day Saints with tho teaching
d common to the Christian churches. Ell
der Young's remarks We're in the same
line, the speaker bearing testimony
In no uncertain tonetof the divinity OF

President John r. Winder presided
over the services, which We're opened

y E ELDER THOMAS HULL.
Elder Hull said in part: This Is a
4 season of the year when, perhaps, more
z than at other times, the thoughts OF
the Latter-day Saints are drawn to-
ward the name aud memory of the
Il Prophet Joseph Smith. because of tho
4 fact that he was born in the month
( OF December. They have, q testimony
< In their hearts that he WAS u man OF
God, a prophet OF the Most High,
b through whom We're revealed principles
for tho salvation OF human kind. BY
the world he was called II fraud. an
imposter, a false prophet. Was ever
u prophet OF God SO designated before?
The answer is found in holy writ An
exception to the rule Is not found that
men who camo In the name OF their
Maker were scorned, rejected and often
met the martyrs fate.
Who believed the words of John, the
Il forerunner OF the Christ, and how
many believed the Son OF God Him-
{. self? Notwithstanding His divinity
and spotless life, He was received with
scorn, contempt and persecution, as
never was man before, and died upon
the cross.
Similar, treatment was accorded to
the great prophet of the nineteenth
century. He revealed anew to earth
8 the true conception of the living God,
and of3Jesus Christ, tho Rcdeemer OF

The U. S. Government In its Pure
Food Law does not "iEdorse' or;
guarantee" any preparation. as some
manufacturers In their advertisements
would make it appear. In the case OF
medicines the law provides that GER
tnin drugs shall be mentioned on the
labels, If they are ingredients of the
preparations. E1y's Cream Balm, the
well-known family remedy for cold in
he head, hay fever and nasal catarrh,
doesn't contain a single injurious drug,
so the makers have simply to print the
fact that it complies fully with all the
requirements of the law.

BOOKMAkER'S APPEAL DENIED
DAVIS CASE Is DISMISSED BY
COURT.
Sentenced to Two Hours in Jail,
but Pardon Will Be APP
piled For.

The District Court of Appeals has dis
missed, for failure to file printed briefs,
the appeal of William Davis, the New
York bookmaker convicted in the spring
of 1906 of setting up a gaming table by
making book as then conducted at Ben
ming.
The case has been pending for some
time in the Appellate Court awaiting &C
ton In the Walters case, known as the
perambulating bookie" case. The pas
sage of the Sims law prohibiting gambling
i'm the District made it unnecessary for
the government to prosecute it's appeal in
the latter case. The dismissal of the Da-
Wis case followed
Although Davis was sentenced by JUS
tice Stafford to serve two hours in the
District Jail, it is not considered likely
that he will be brought here to carry out
the sentence. An application for pardon
is to be made to the President through
the office of the Attorney General
As the case was brought 10 test the
law and the name of Mr.. Davis furnished
by the Metropolitan Turf Association of
which he was member merely that
some defendant could be had, 1t is likely
that United States Attorney Baker will
put no Obstac.e in the way of securing
the pardon.

EL0PERS WIN IN lONG RACE
MARION IN. CO. COUPLE oUTWIT
PARENTS AND WED.
Married in Canterbury, England,
and Daddy Returns Home With
out His Runaway Daughter.

PARIS. November 6.-While J. L. Nor
gan of Marion, n. c., was securing the
continent in search of his runaway
daughter Fayetta and w. P. Craig, with
whom the young woman eloped from
Florence about three weeks ago, the
couple were married at Canterbury Eng
land. The ceremony occurred October 80.
Mr.. Morgan returned to America in ig-
norance of the wedding. Mr.. and Mrs.
Craig are now in this city.
w. p. Craig was employed as bro
ker's clerk in New Orleans and on a re-
cent visit to Marion, n. c.. fell in love
with Miss Fayetta Morgan. seventeen
years old. Mr.. Morgan forbade the mar
riage and the young man declared he
would marry without Mr.. Morgan's con-
sent. Mr.. Morgan promptly sent his
daughter under the care of a chaperon to
attend an art school in Florence, Italy.
Mr. Craigs efforts to outwit the father
were favored by a bequest of 5000 which
enabled him to go to Europe as soon as
did Miss Morgan. He found her in Flor
ence, and, eluding the chaperon, Craig
and Miss Morgan made a vain attempt
to be married on the continent.
In the meantime Mr.. Morgan got news
of what had transpired, cabled American
agents throughout the continent to find
the couple. rushed to New York and
boarded a steamer for Europe October
Is. He returned yesterday after a vain
search.
