TOO MUCH FOR SMITH
Head Of Mormon Church Is Harsh In
Denouncing Fashions.

Salt Lake City-Presiden Joseph F.
Smith of the Mormon church made a
vigorous attack on present-day dress
of women before an audience of sew
eral thousand men and women at the
Sunday school conference of the
church in the tabernacle Sunday night.
IL want to enter my protest against
the prevailing fashions for women"
he said. 81 see young women going
down the streets in garb not only ridi-
culous, but shameful, suggestive and
humiliating to the modesty of honor
able men; CARDS that make lustful the
low scoundrels who are willing to de-
file anything that is sacred.
ITO say that / am ashamed of such
fashions of dress is speaking my mind
very mildly. l know / stand to be
criticized and possibly condemned by
those who love the fashions of Baby
Ion, who love the places of very direct
associations in the world. But many
of the fashions worn today had their
origin in the houses of infamy in Paris
and London and other centers of So
called civilization.
and women are falling into the
habit of initiating the fashions of the
demimonde. Our simple girls are not
wise enough to avoid following after
these infamous-well, should say the
poor creatures.

my daughters following these fash
ions, and / thank God that none of
them have done So"

AGED MAN AND A
YOUNG GIRL FOUND DEAD
Bodies Are Found In Hotel Room
at Wall WaIIa-Notes Tell
of Tragedy

Walla Walla, Wash.-The bodies OF
c. M. Frazer, age SO, and Mary Hhwn,
age 18, his daughters stepdaughter,
were found dead on a bed in Frazer's
room in a local hotel Monday after
noon. The girls death was due, 1t Is
believed. to poison. The man used
a revolver, apparently muffling the re-
port by wrapping a blanket about the
weapon and inserting the end of the
barrel in his mouth. Whether the
deaths resulted from a double suicide
or murder and suicide is a mystery.
Miss Hawn's home was in Toppenish
and she was attending st. Vincent's
academy here. Frazer had been here
frequently, coming from Wendell, Ida,
where he had mining interests. He
also owned restaurant in Prosser.
He had paid for the girls tuition at st.
Vincent's academy and had visited her
frequently.
Two notes were found. tt was sup
posed at first that each had written
one, but closer inspection showed both
in the same handwriting, evidently
Frazer's. One said:
Notify Mrs. Nellie Hebbs, 40 South
Toppenish avenue, Toppenish, Wash"
The other said in effect:
Dear Daughter: This is to say
goodby. l hate to do this, but am pow
erless to prevent it. You will find my
papers in my satchel May God for
give me-"
