Present Senate Investigation Promises 0 Develop Interesting Facts. SALT LAKE, April 20.—Some of the interesting figures inside and outside the Mormon church in Utah are to give testimony before the Senate Com- mittee n Privileges and Elections during the next few days. Revelations expected throwing considerable more light on the practices of the Mor- mon church in pelygamy and politics. Among those who are to give testimony are Former Judge Orlando W. Powers, who, as United States Judge for the Territory, sentenced many polygamists to the penitentiary and who managed the campaign which wrested Salt Lake are City from the control of the Mormons | in 1890. He will tell of Utah politics Mormons familiar with the inside workings of the church there will be Moses Thatcher, deposed apostle, and Apostle John Henry Smith, the “politi- cal apostle.” John"Henry Smith and Reed Smoot are generally influence with President Joseph F. Smith than any other persons. All these will be asked about political con- ditions, but some of the witnesses will be requested to tell about polygamous relations entered into since the Wood- ruff manifesto of 1890 “advising” the abandonment of polygamy. By some of these witnesses it is Among the | Brigham H. Roberts, | believed to have more' HOLDS OBLIGATIONS TO HIS WIVES ABOVE THE LAWS OF GOD OR MEN Brigham H. Roberts, Testifying Before the Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections, Tells of His Plural Marriages and Boldly Confesses That He Is Still Practicing Polygamy e litical independence. posed from his church position and was | saved from excommunication only by making a humble apology. It is be- lieved he would have left the church if he had been a monogamist. As he had more than one wife .and they would have lostall position in society if he left the church and renounced its doctrine of polygamy, he humbled him- self and remained a Mormon. This experience has left him a broken-spir- ited man, however. It was a great | blow to the political independence of individual Mormons. Thatcher may be questioned closely about the marriage relations of one of his daughters, Clarice. It is said that he opposed bitterly her becoming the plural wife a couple of years ago of Henry S. Tanner, a municipal Judge in Salt Lake City. Tanner is a leader {of the Young Men's Mutual Improve- ment Society of the Mormon church. and is accused of having taken two plural wives within the last few years. Apostle John Henry Smith has al- ways been active in politics. He is a cousin of the president of the church and an active polygamist. He was be- ing groomed for the Governorship four years ago, but because of the rejection of Roberts by Congress it was thought advisable for the polygamists to keep in the background for a while. Hence | he retired and let Heber M. Wells have the office for a second term. If Apostle Smith can be induced to tell the “truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth” he will throw a great deal of light on conditions, especially as re- gards polygamy and polities. | L. E. Abbott of Farmingtén, Utah, will probably be questioned about the polygamous practices of two of the apostles. Abbott was formerly Sheriff of Davis County. In the little village' of Farmington, a short distance north of Salt Lake City, live some of the plural wives of Apostle John W. 'r-y-l lor. Abbott knows about them. It is charged that Taylor married two sis- ters, Roxie and Rhoda Willing, within the last three years.

The greater portion of the session of the Grand Lodge of the Knights and Ladies of Honor in the Pythian Castle yesterday was taken up in the selection of grand officers for the cur- rent term. There were many nomin- ating speeches, but there were but three offices contested for, namely, grand protector, grand chaplain and grand trustee. The result of the elec- tions was as follows: Frances J. Williams of San Fran- cisco, grand protector; D. J. Girard of n Jose, vice protector; W. H. Quit- w of San Francisco, secretary; A. Gompertz of San Francisco, treasurer; Mrs. Nusbaum of San Francisco, chaplain; Jennie Dinklage of San Francisco, guide; Marion Perry of Vallejo, inside guardian; W. E. Ban- brook of Auburn, sentinel; E. H. Bourgignon of San Jose, A. H. Ander- son of San Francisco and Ellen Fitz- gerald of San Francisco, trustees. Later in the day these officers were installed with the usual ceremonies by Past Grand Protector Dr. S. American, assisted by Mrs. Emma O’Donnell as grand guide. The new grand protector, Mrs. Wil- liams, has been in fraternal life for many years. She holds her member- ship in this order in Aurora Lodge No. 202, the pioneer lodge in this State, and has for two years been the grand vice protector of the Grand Lodge. She is also a member of Bo- adicea Circle of the Druidesses, U, A. O. D, and last year was the grand arch Druidess of that order. The grand secretary, grand treasurer, grand inside gurdian and grand guide were elected witHout opposition. Past ,Grand Protector L. G. Wolfe on retir- ing from office after having served two terms was, by the individual members of the Grand Lodge, pre- sented a valuable gold fob and seal in recognition of the good work he did during the two years he was in office. The new grand protector in outlin- ing her policy declared that she will introduce measures during her term looking to the increase of the mem- bership of the several lodges and that she will personally visit every lodge in the jurisdiction. The next session of the grand body will be held in this city in April, 1905. —————— Yodemite Now Open. The Santa Fe from Merced is the best way.

Peruna strengthens the action of the heart, assists digestion and stimulates the excretory organs, thus ridding the system of the superfluous nutritive ma- terial that accumulates at the approach of warm weather.
