Three weeks had passed since Jef- ferwon Hope and his comrades had departed from Salt Lake City. John Ferrler’a heart was sore within him when he thought of the young man’s return, and of the impending loss of his adopted child. Yet her bright and happy face reconciled him to the arrangement more than any argument could have dofae. He had always de termined, deep down in his reaolute heart, that nothing would ever induce him to allow his daughter to wed a Mormon. Such a marriage he re garded as no marriage at all, hut as a shame and a disgrace. Whatever he might think of the Mormon doc trine upon that one point he was In flexible. He had to seal his mouth on the subject, however, for to ex press an unorthodox opoinion was a dangerous matter in those days in the Land of the Saints. Yes, a dangerous matter —so dan gerous that even the most *aintly dar ed only whisper their religious opin ions with hated breath, lest some thing which fell from their lips might he misconstrued and bring down a swift retribution upon th^m The victims of persecution hud now turn ed persecutors on their own account, and persecutors of the nio^t terrl'de depcript|nn Not the Imee-dtion of Seville, nor the German \Yhmce- richt, nor *he me ret Micros of Italy \\'T" i itt aide in put rt noire 'orittlda- on 'b in t|,at ov. r the T« rrl'nn hie rns' hiniTi w lib h c:i>t a i ! of ftab I' t n \! s I h' 11 1 v « 1.

"Call them In, that I may greet ‘hem.” "It la true that I have not mar ried,” Ferrier anawered. "But wo men were few, and there were many who Lad better claims than I. I was not a lonely man; I had my daughter to attend to my want*.” "It is of that daughter that I would speak to you,’’ said the leader of the Mormons. "She has grown to be the flower of Utah, and has found favor in the eyee of many who are high In the land.” John Eerrler groaned Internally. "There are stories of her which I would fain disbelieve—stories that she is sealed to some Gentile. This must he the gossip of idle tongues. What Is the thirteenth rule In the code of the sainted Joseph Smith? "l^t every maiden of the true faith marry one of the elect; for If she wed a Gentile, she commits a grievous sin.’’ This being so, it is impossible that you, who profess the holy cred, should suffer your daughter to vio late it.’’ John E* rrier made no answer, but he played nervously with his riding whip.

A u« Joliet PrUonen Appreciate Their New Liberty and Pitch Into Work With Enthusiasm. Forty-five picked prleoners from the state prison at Joliet, 111., are working on the state road near Dixon and living in a camp on the bank of the Rock river. For five or six months they will enjoy all the liber ties afforded working road gangs of free men. There is not a happier company of working men, perhaps, to be found In the whole country. To protect themselves and to insure that the road building experiment shall be a success, the group has named one of their number as judge to try all cases thatunay arise in the gang and another as a detective to report In case any member of the gang seeks to away. The road gang is composed of mur derers, forgers, "Black Hand’’ ope rators, hold-up men, pug-uglies, plain thieves, extraordinary thieves and burglars—all long term men. They are eager to "make good" so that the men under sentence for short terms may also have the benefit of life and work in the sunshine. The group of convicts was tak°n from Joliet prison while it was still dark and. being under no special guard, some prisoners might easily have sneaked away. But every man has placed that he will pursue and deal harshly with any convict who -e. ks to bring the prison into dis- repute.

With the arrest in New York early Sunday of the Rev. Hans Schmidt, assistant rector of St. Joseph’s Ro man Catholic church, charged with the murder of Anna Aumuller, a do mestic, the mystery surrounding the finding of parts of the dismembered body of a girl in the Hudson river was solved. Schmidt, according to the police reports, confessed, and at the time of his arrest attempted to commit.suicide ,by cutting his throat with a safety razor blade. Early Sunday, according to par ishioners of the church, Schmidt said to tlie Rev. Father Huntmann, rector of St. Joseph’s Church, that he would hear no more confessions and when asked for his reason said: "I have something of importance to tell you.’’ With bis superior, Schmidt then re fin'd to tht> study where the latter told all that ha dtranspired in the Br:iilhur''f avenue flat, where, aoeord- in- td h 1 allegfd eonfewslon. he mur- d* r*d the girl Father Huntmann conferred with his otb.-r assistants and It w,m .-urried that the nuthori-l ties -h.iuld be notified The pi,lire* howe\#» were even 'hep on ' o M’ * 'rail and his arrest ' d- I v* * d • h' r T! \ S'hmld' * m taken to the Tombs.

Hence every man feared h's neirhV>r and none spoke of the tilings which were nearest his heart. One fine morning John Perrier was .about to set out to his wheat-fields when he heard the click of the latch, and looking through the window, saw a stout, sandy-haired, niidle aged man coming up the pathway. His heart leaped to his mouth, for this was none other than the great Brig ham Young himself. Full of tropida- dation, for he knew that such a visit boded him little good, Ferrier ran to the door to greet tho Mormon chief. The latter, however, received his sal utation coldly, and followed him with a stern face into the sitting room.

A gaily colored pillow slip of un usual pattern led to Schmidt’s appre hension. This pillow, stained with blood and soiled with the filth of the river, was wrapped around a portion of the torso. The dettctlves traced the pillow to Its manufacturer; the manufacturer traced it to the dealer: the dealer traced It to Schmidt. And the police, tracing Schmidt and the girl, knew all about both of them hours before they arrested him. Schmidt was arrested by Inspector Faurot in charge of the detective bu reau. The priest was dressed in full clerical garb when the detectiye en tered his rooms In the parish house of his church In west One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street. The inspec tor produced a photograph of Miss Aumuller and asked; Schmidt If he knew the girl. The priest, after a moment of hesi tation, inquired whether his visitors were police officers. His actions indicated that he was expecting arrest. He then asked, mission to change his clothes was when he left his clothes a! was when he left the room, Inspector Faurot declared, that he attempted to cut his throat with a safety razor blade. »♦ • ) Th* school army Is on ths march.
