HANDY REVELATION. -

If any man in the Mormon church
is capable Of paying eloquent tribute
to another, that man is Elder Brigham
IL. Roberts, In his sermon of week
ago last Sunday, which he delivered
in the Tabernacle, Mr.. Roberts de
Tended, complimented. praised, and
dcifed Joseph Smith, the founder of
Mormonism Referring to him in one
portion of his sermon, Elder Roberts
said:
To me there were tremendous conse-
quences in these experiences OF inc
prophet. When you see this man so CON
stautly In communion with his God for
help. If God did not come TO his help
then what hope has man that God VIII
hear prayer at all?
We have in mind one of the par
ticular instances of "answer to
prayer" to which Mr.. Roberts doubt
less alluded It happened in the year
1929. in Harmony, Susquehanna
county. Pennsylvania Briefly let us
remind the reader that Martin Harris
had been furnishing the money TO sup
port Joseph during his "translation -
of the supposed golden plates. Martin
became suspicious Of the whole affair,
because he had not yet been permitted
TO view the wonderful plates. He had
requested Joseph that the privilege of
doing so be granted him-ho wanted to
know what he was putting his money
into. But Joseph had made so many
and such varying excuses to avoid such
submission of proof, and there were
such outlandish stories going the
rounds of the ncighborhood concerning
the fraud and fakcry attaching TO
the entire business. that Martin was
not satisfied by any means. He be
came almost angry over the thing-hc
wanted to know, and he would know.
"'Up against it' is mild term in
expression of the quandary in which
Joseph found himself. But the Lord
and revelation in answer to prayer had
stood him in good stead before, aud he
fled TO these now. So he Immediately
h" received - communication upon the
subject, which may be found in sec
tion ) of the Doctrine and Covenants.
In paragraphs and the Lord is
made to say to Joseph: "Behold, if
they will not believe my words, they
would not believe you my servant 10.
seph, If 1T WERE POSSIBLE THAT
YOU COULD SHOW THEM all these
things which ] have committed unto
you. o! this unbelieving and stiffnecked
generation, mine anger is kindled
AGAINST them -
And so it came about that, while
the pretended communication from On
High confessed the inability Of Joseph
to show the plates. Martin was fright
cncd into submission--and 10 putting
up more money. Which goes to
demonstrate that revelation is n
mighty handy thing, especially when
kept conveniently on tap to be drawn
upon in any emergency. And it also
goes to explain why Elder Roberts de-
clared, ''To me there were tremendous
consequences in these experiences of
the prophet

ESCAPE
OF LOWELL WOMAN
MRS. BERT NASH AND CHILD
BARELY ATTAINED SAFETY IN
FRIDAYS FLOOD.

Mrs. Bert Nash, who lives on the
flats below Lowell, near the Gene
terry had a thrilling experience and a
narrow escape from drowning in the
flood last Friday evening.
When the water rose and surround
ed the house she was alone with
her little child Thinking it would
soon subside she had closed the
door and prepared to wait until the
water permitted her to reach her
neighbors.
When the flood continued to rise
she became alarmed and determined to
brave the waters and with her child
reach a pointof safety. Her horror
reach a point of safety. Her horror
to open the door she found that the
dirt and debris washed against the
house had jammed the door in such a
way that she was unable TO force it
open.
In the meantime neighbors had
seen her danger and FASTENED TO heI
assistance. BIZ breaking out one OF
the screen windows she was able to
make her exit with her child and was
carried from the house to the home
of a neighbor living on the higher
ground.

CITY MARSHAL IS
TAKEN TO HOSPITAL
6AssETT WATKINS MAY HAVE
TO UNDERGO OPERATION FOR
APPENDICITIS TODAY.

City Marshal Bassett Watkins was
taken from his residence in Upper
Tombstone Canyon yesterday even
ing to the Copper Queen hospital
where. If there is no change in
his condition. an operation for ap-
pendicitis or kidney trouble will be
performed today.
Mr.. Watkins became i'll on Sunday
and grew rapidly worse. Yesterday
his attending physician, DR.. W. F.
HawIey, called in consultation Dr.
F. Z. Shine, chief of the Copper
Queen staff, and It was decided TO
remove him at once to the hospital.
While his condition is considered
serious by the physicians, it is not
necessarily critical. and it is hoped
that an operation may be avoided.
The disease TO which Mr. Watkins
so quickly succumbed is thought TO
have been greatly aggravated and
FASTENED by the long hours and ard
uous labor which the food of last
Friday demanded of him and to
which he gave himself unsparingiy
