Har- ley was drinking heavily yesterday and making numerous threats to do violence to different persons, among them Nolan. Last night he entered the hotel barroom as Nolan was com- ing in the rear door with a shotgun in his hands. Without warning Nolan fired, filling the side of Harley's face with shot, severing the jugular vein and causing almost instant death. When the Coroner arrived Harley's hands were still in his pockets, where they were when he was shot. He was unarmed. Nolan gave himself up to the Sher- iff. This is the secorid man Nolan has killed. He shot a man named Tim- othy Daly in Turlock in 1885. Nolan is 68 vears of age. > —_———— CHINESE CAMP MINER DIES MYSTERIOUS DEATH Foul Play Is Suspected and Two Workmen Are in Jail Pending Investigation. CHINESE CAMP, Dec. 19.—James T.

Pres- | cott of San Bernardino is the most ac- | ceptable of the candidates for Speakef his of the Assembly. As affairs now stand | Prescott seems to have an advantage | over his rivals, but there is talk that the campaign for the election of United | States Senator may become so interest- !ing before the Legislature convenes that the programme for the Speaker- ! ship will be revised. Assemblyman A. M. Drew of Fresno , was at the Union League Club yester- /day and met a number of Republican | leaders. He is mentioned as a probable candidate for Speaker, and many of | the statesmen insist that of all the can- | didates spoken of he is surely the most capable. i | The story that the Governor has ex- | pressed a preference for Speaker is | taken with some grains of allowance. It is well understood that the chief executive officer of the State desires the election of a Speaker; with suffi- cient tact and firmness to prevent the Assembly from running wild on appro- priations of money. Efforts to get the “organization” in- terested in the contest for the position {of President pro tem. of the Senate ! have so far proved unavailing. It is | the idea of some statesmen that the | organization consists of the chairman | | of the Republican State Committee and | the leading contributors to the cam- | paign fund of the party. Others hold | that the law department of the South- |ern Pacific is an element of the or- ganization. Whatever it is, it has not yet taken sides with either Senator Wolfe or Senator Leavitt in their con‘i test for the prestige of presiding in the Senate during the absence of Lieuten- ant Governor Anderson. Senator | Wolfe in presenting the claims of San Francisco for recogni-| tion points to the magnificent majority | which this city gave to the Republican party in the recent election. Senator Leavitt, hailing from Ala- meda, claims that his county, which regularly rolls up handsome Republican | majorities in wet seasons and dry sea- | sons, should be no longer overlooked in i the award of patronage. There is a | vigorous shout that Alameda is entitled | to recognition. ——————————— | LIEUTENANT RICHARDS' CASE IS STILL HANGING ml:f | Army Board Convenes, but Is Ad-! journed on Account of Retire- ; | ment of Colonel Girard. i i The case of Lieutenant G.

C. Nelson, Superintendent of Public In- struction of Utah, some facts concern- ing the use of school buildings for the teaching of the Mormon relig Apostle John Henry Smith was on the stand for two hours. Other witnesses were lsaac Birdsall, a Mormon, wh said that his daughter was exco municated because she would not obey | & decision of a bishop’s court which | had deprived her of a piece of prope to which she had the lawful title, and | Willlam Balderston, editor of the Boise | (1aaho) Sthtesman, who testifled in re- gard to the political affairs in his State. Chairman Burrows drew from Apostle Smith some statistics relating to the church, but no register of the total membership. In regard to colon- ization, Apostle Smith said there is a large settlement in Mexico and that one-third of the population of Idaho and one-fourth of the population of Wyoming are Mormons. Other States and Territories having 4arge settle- ments are Nevada, California, Arizona, Colorado and New York, while Iowa has a large settlement of the reorgan- ized Church of Latter Day Saints, which drew away from the other church because it did not believe in polygamy. REVELATION NECESSARY. Apostle Smith said that the suspen- sion of the practice of polygamy was the result of a revelation and that it would take another revelation to put it in force. “Then the president of the church might put polygamy In practice by re- celving a revelation?” “Not unless the people should receive it. Nothing is forced on the Mormon people,” he replied. At the afternoon seéssion Isaac Bird- sall, formerly a Mormon, sald he sev- ered his connection with the Mormon church at the time his daughter was offered rebaptism If she would eonvey her property to one Leavitt, but could not give the date. William Budge of Paris, Idahe, was recalled by counsel for Smoot. He said that as a bishop of the Mormon church he has not entertained a case involving the title of land for the rea- son that presidents of the church have given Instructions that bishops and presidents of stakes could not hear such cases. MEMBERS FROM EUROPE. Apostle Smith was recalled and ques- tioned by Chairman Burrows concern- | ing the immigration from foreign coun- tries. He had testified that from one- third to one-half of the converts to tha church came from Europe. The emi- grants, he said, are usually placed in charge of an experienced man and brought over on steamships with which the foreign missionaries do business. There are about four sallings a year, he said. To Tayler he said he was present at the meeting at which Penrose was elected an apostle. The fact that Mr. Penrose was a polygamist was not mentioned or thought of, and he added: “That question does not enter into the election. - It is settled in our country that the peonle must obey the laws of the land.” “Do you?" 'Well, I try. “But you have not well?” asked Chair “Well, not so far. Apostle Smith was then dischargea and William Balderston, editor of the Boise (Idaho) Statesman and formerly connected with the Salt Lake“Times, testified in regard to political condi- tions in Utah abo the time of the is- suance of the Woodruff manifesto and in Idaho after 1891 It was brought out by Tayler that the Attorney General of Idaho is re- puted to have taken a plural wife with- in the last two or three years. RELIGION IN SCHOOLS, A. C. Nelson of Salt Lake, State Su- aid Tayler. succeeded very an Burrows. | perintendent of Public Instruction and a Mormon, was sworn. He Is now mak- Ing an investigation of the extent in which classes in religign are main- tained in the schools. Answers have been received, he said, from all the County Superintendents except three, Classes are held in about 300 bwildings. These classes are assembled after the adjournment of the regular school day, which varies from 2:30 to 5 o’clock In the afternoon. Nelson read a letter which he had sent to all schoo! superintendents call- ing attention to a statute prohibiting sectarian teachings in the public schools. So far as he had information, Nelson-said, the school teachers usual- 1y taught the classes In religion. On cross-examination Nelson was asked if Senator Smoot had been ad- vised of matters relating to religion classes. a “Well,” answered the witness, “I/re- member meeting Senator Smoot and telling him I was about to begin my in- vestigation, and that I believed the use of the school buildings for religious purposes was contrary ta law, and he said, ‘Good, I am glad to hear it." " “Is that intended to be Senator Smoot’s answer on the witness stand?" asked Tayler. “It is well enough in an investigation in which he is the subject to have Sen- ator Smoot’s name mentioned at least once a week,” responded Worthington. —_—— California Postal Changes.
