WOMEN DEPLORE TAFT'S
ATTITUDE TOWARD CHRIST

The women of all the local evangelical
churches held their national day of prayer
yesterday at the First Presbyterian
church, when the subject, our Country.
State and CITY" was discussed. The three
topics were taken separately, Mrs. ]. r.
Bowdle beginning with a brief talk on the
needs of the country, and in connection
with this subject she and others deplored
the fact that the newly-elccted president
is not an avowed Christian. Mrs. Bowdle
spoke Of the child labor laws. and asked
for especial prayer on this subject Miss
Noble reviewed the needs of the state, but
spoke of no one particular need, and Mrs.
p. A. Simpl1in took up the subject of the
needs of the city. Mrs. Simpkin told of
the splendid work being done by the
Young Women's Christian association, and
of its needs, of the Juvenile court work,
of the need of detention home for girls
and of the saloon problem. Prayer fol-
lowed each presentation of a subject, Mrs.
Herbert Z. Hayes, the president, lead
ing In connection with Mrs. Simpkin's
talk one woman urged the matter of the
women joining the WOman's league, and
working for the needs of the city in that
way as well as praying.

TO CHECK LIQUOR EVIL.
Kaysville Council VIII Amend Ordi-
nance to Better Control Saloons
and Pool Halls.

Kaysvilie, Feb. 1.-THE question of bet
ter regulation of the saloons and pool
halls OF kaysviile is being agitated again,
and those who are working for the moral
betterment of the town are encouraged to
believe that the attitude of the city off
Gals IS changing somewhat in relation to
the evils that are known to have existed
for long time past. Last night the city
council instructed its judiciary committee
TO draft an ordinance that will improve
the condition as to boys fTequenting the
pool hall and remaining till late hour
A SAT- Lake evening paper last night
published a letter from Kaysville in which
the city council and the marshal were Sc
versly censured for allowing gambling in
saloons and pool halls, and for permitting
boys under is to visit the latter places.
Mayor Thomas II Phillips, who was seen
today, admitted that the city ordinances
were too loose to admit Of prosecution in
many cases that might arise in connection
with the control of the liquor and pool
question, but he was determined to see the
ordinances amended so that more strict
regulation would be possible. He believed
that one of the greatest evils was that
card tables are permitted in saloons and
pool halls, and the ordinance that he
wishes to have passed will forbid card
playing in such places altogether. As to
the pool halls, he favors a 10 O'Clock clos
ing clause, with an age limit that will
keep young boys away from them.
1t is asserted that the local pool hall is
looms. and that it is being operated as an
adjunct to the saloon.
The conditions are becoming, in the
minds of many citizens. intolerable, and
it would not be surprising if some move
is made to petition the council to estab-
lish a high license for the pool hall with
a view to closing it.
The attention of the city marshal las
been called to alleged infractionS of the
law by the saloon interests. and a more
careful watch will be kept in the future.
Such is the promise of the city officials.
Meantime, the sentiment prevails that
this community has no need for saloon.
and il is not improbable that irrespective
of the action of the saloon-eontrolled leg
isiature. the prohibition fight will go on
until Davis county, at least. is freed Of
the saloon evil.
Mrs. Daniel Harvey underwent a criti-
cal operation at the Kaysville hospital
this morning. DR.. S. H Allen OF Salt Lake
performed the operation, which was en-
tirely successful The patient is doing
well with every prospect of speedy re-
covery.

MAY ABOLISH CREW CAPTAIN.
Sentiment in Favsr OF Captainlcss Crew
1T Columbia.

II seems likely from the rumors preva-
lent around the Columbia boathouse at
Edgewater that the custom of electlng q
captain for the varsity crew each year will
be dropped after the close OF the present
term. Coach Rice has neither affirmed nor
denied the rumors, but it is pretty we'll
understood that he for one is not, in favor
OF continuing the custom. This supposed
feeling on the part OF Coach Rice Is believed
TO have been caused by the fact that b. P.
Cerussi, the present captain of the Column
bia crew, has worked himself into a highly
nervous condition over the AFFAIRS Of the
crew. II Is this that is said to be the real
reason OF Cerussfs removal from stroke
to No. z.
The responsibilities devolving upon the
captain are said to be too burdening and
1t therefore becomes impossible for him
TO keep his health and row at the same
time. This very thing happened last year.
when Won SaltZa, who was captain OF the
varsity eight. was unable to stay in the
shell and was relegated to the varsity four.
While Cerussi's condition is not as bad as
Won SBltka's. II II said that Rice wants him
to remain In the boat and that for that very
reason he shifted him from stroke.

of a captain to be omitted hereafter. II Is
probable that the presidency Of the univer-
sity rowing club will after this be the honor
position for the senior crew man. When
the custom OF elcting captains at Cornell
was abolished several years ago the COM
modore OF the navy became the honored
man In rowing circles at ithaca.
