THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: MONDAY, MAHC1I 0, 1902. ATTACKS MORMON PROPIIET TTrft&riaa Eipoundcr AttacAs Sincerity of Joseph Smith. SAYS NOVEL INSPIRlD BOOK IF MORMON Believes that fiction -Written ky naa-nrlaliy Emkirriiwl Minister ta the Real Feaadatloa f the (tak Faith. Tbe mallei of dlspsragement was applied to the, founder of Mormorlsm vigorously fcy Rct- Newton Mann at Unity church Sun day morning. He referred to Joseph Smith, the prophet, as one of three "arch con gplrators," and said that the "humbug et the. revelation platea la too thin to merit ny extended consideration," and declared f the process of translating them that "had the curtain obscuring Smith been slyljr drawn a Ids It would undoubtedly have re vealed the prophet reading the Epauldlng manuscript as revised by Rlgdon." Her. Mann stated that he had laboriously iraded through tbe 688 pages of the Book of Mormon and made other research In preparation for yesterday's lecture. His conclusion. It appeared, was that the book Vn really only a crafty revision of a novel written by Rev. Solomon Spauldlng, who graduated from Dartmouth In 1785, and Who, after iom years in the ministry found seed of a means of lifting himself out of debt. The first manuscript of the novel, Bet. Mann aald, 1 now at Oberlln college, ut " Epauldlng re-wrote It to better lti style and It was thla second Mb that 6ldney Rlgdon. a young and unscrupulous man looking to the Baptist ministry, stole from the Patterson Job prlntery in Pltts tmrg and subsequently gave to the aecond Joseph Smith, whoso birth had been her alded by his mother as that of a prophet, and who early acquired an aptness at see ing things which other people of abstem dus habits could not. Rev. Mann appeared to believe that rarley P. Pratt, a peddler, brought Smith and Rlgdon together, and that the three of them eat up nights laying ut the work of the "heavenly messengers" that later were so accommodating to their needs. Tbe word of the men who testi fied to having eeen the dlvtne visitation a.t the time Joseph translated the plates behind a curtain with the Urlm and Thum tnlm, which were stone spectacles supposed to nave made plain any character writing from an Egyptian inscription to a Horace Greeley editorial, aeemed to be consid erably below par with the Unitarian ex pounder and he ceased to appear skeptical only when he got into the later history f Mormonlsm,' when the events took the more material form of tall temples, atone tanks, tarred and feathered dlgnitarlea of the church and the shooting of the prophet Joseph at Nauvoo, 111, June 27, 1844. In closing he said: "Fairly to take the measure of so sccentrlo an Individual as the Mormon prophet is not easy. Such a compound of littleness and greatness, of Ignorance and power, of fraud and piety disconcerts all our reckoning. Possibly the man thought he was doing good, that the trlcka he resorted to were Justifiable as means to that end; and there la no dif ficulty In seeing how he may have hon estly considered hla revelations .aa good as anybody's. Some such compromise as this the, final Judgment , of mankind will make v..-,.-.- th oTnittttlon in which he Is held ty hla followers and the contempt heaped Upon him by his adversaries. (TALKS ABOUT i , WOMAVS WORK Mrs. Byra Dlscnsses Objects of the V. W. C. A. . Mrs. Emma F. Byers, general secretary -- vnunr Wnmen'a Christian associa tion of Omaha, delivered an address at the First Congregational cnurcn eunaay nwru i. which took the nlace ot the regular sermon. She is making the rounds of the various Protestant churcnes oi ins cuy, telling of the work her association is ac complishing, and the address yesterday Was the fourth or tne series, next duuuj - mi th. irirat PrMbvterlan sue wm y v . - - fourch. and Sunday alter next at the Kountte Memorial. "Our work la four-told," aald she, "edu ..tinn.1 Tthvulr-al. social and Industrial, and devotional work la the spirit of tbe Whole not one side ot It, aa has been re ported. I will now anawer three objec tions that have been urged against the rn,inr Wnmen'a Christian association: First Why can't the church do the work? Because the church doors are most of the week, while the girls are coming to the city for twelve hours ot very day. It la our auty to gei Doaxaiog bouses and employment for them and to suggest social life and church relations. fwmndJrna association takes girls from th.lr homm- In a city of this slse the average la 8.000 self-supporting Women and 180 occupations are open to Th Viuif Woman's Christian as sociation wishes It were not so. We wish there were fewer women who were com pelled to he self-supporting and that many Of the 10 occupations were not open to them, but these facts are stubborn things gad we have to face them aa they are. Third It takae atria away from their Work in the church. The pastor of our City churches tell us that the best work Ore they have are the Toung Women's Christian araoctatlon women and those Who , have had training in the Young Women's association. "We' recognise no class distinction In the ruiiK Women's Christian association. It a mint imniu wants to learn dresamak big or to read or write, we furnish her with k . i . 4 14 .K. m l.h.

At most of the churches pledges ef. sub scriptions are being taken up tor the ad vancement of tne wore. iV "TOR'S FIRST APPEAR ANCH ttev. H. U. Hill Gete Aeejnnlnted Willi Hla Caaa-ree-atlon. . The First Christian church was crowded Sunday morning to hear ths first sermon y the new pastor. Rev. Harry O. Hill. The castor announced that he would not at tempt to Breach a sermon, because he hsd net only not had an opportunity to prepare himself, but that hs believed It would be better If he spent ths time la getting ae snialnted with the members ot the church and giving them a few of his ldeaa about the church. He stated that he desired thorough understanding of the views et the members. He had ideals for the church gad expected during his pastorate to realise aome of his ideals. Most of the time wss taken up In com' baring the old church with the new. "And ta this comparison," said the speaker. do not waat to be classed as a pessimist. t believe that the world la better today than It ever has been; I believe there are better people and that there is more good In peo ple," "My ideal ot a church." continued the speaker, "la the plan laid down la the Ne tesuiaes.t. We ahul4 tao.d. fir&Ur tbe bible, when It peaks, we should speak; where It Is silent, we should be silent.' Rev. Hill stated that the eld church was plsce of worship, where people went for prayer, baptism, belief, offerings aad .to ear the gospel propounded and to learn of God. The church of today, he said, was a place of entertainment. In the old church prayer meetings were held Bfty-twe times year and la some of the eastern churches today 1 prayer meetings are held one week In the year. He urged tbe congregation to pay more attention to the prayer meeting. saying that "a cold, damp prayer meeting meant a dead church." He stated that the church had degenerated and disinte grated and nrged the members to make the church a radiating point, having first made a rallying ground. After the services an Informal reception was held and tbe members of the congre gation were Introduced to Rev. and Mrs. Hill. REPEATS HIS OMAHA TRICK William Weadever Impersonates Loalartlle Merchants' Sons. William J. Sullivan, chief of detectives at Louisville, Kf., has Just Issued cordial Invitations to ths world at large to cap ture and hold William Weadover for for gery. Tbe Kentucky Hawluhaw ' says he 111 cheerfully send and get Wendover wherever he may be taken, because he has ucceeded In passing several checks which bear the counterfeit signature of promi nent business men ot Loulatllle. This announcement ' and the pictures, which are again appearing In the police publications, have special Interest for Omaha, because Wendover Is" the same genial and urbane young tnan who bilked Ight .local merchants in September, 1900, by the same system. He was a son of E. E. Bruce at one place. A son ef F. P. Kir- endall at another and belonged to still other well known families elsewhere. When the merchants had difficulty In re membering that the men in question had such a son he kindly went to tbe trouble of explaining that ha had been absent from Omaha, attending an eastern college for the four years past. "' , From Omaha he went to Des Moines and worked" five merchants there aa a aon of S. M. Osgood, and front there to Minne apolis, where a tallow-haired policeman. who hadn't been ever long, couldn't under stand Wendovsr's glib explanations and held onto htm.

COLONEL HATHAWAY RETURNS Officers at Arsar Headaaartere Tnlak He Mojit Be en Sick ' Leave. Considerable Interest was shown at arm. headquarters yesterday morning over the report, published in a San Francisco pa per, that among the arrivals In the United mates on tne transport Hancock, which brought over the Twenty-second regiment, was Lieutenant Colonel Forrest B. Hath away, tjoionei Hathaway was previous to his assignment to the Philippines last summer chief quartermaster of tbe Depart ment or the Missouri. He left Omaha In June to sail for tbe Philippines July L He asked for a board of Inquiry to iaves tlgata his physical ability to serve In tbe tropics after his family physlolan had told him that such service would be fatal to htm. The board reported favorably and he went to Manila .August 1. Since he arrived there friends (a this "city heard from him to the effect that his health had improved. Letters written as late as January 24 said that he was In good health. ana his presence on board the transport cannot be understood, as there have been no orders Issued recalling him to service at home. His friends fear that he became III suddenly and that he la home on alck leave. They have heard nothing from him slnos his arrival, Mrs. Hathaway and family are now In Massachusetts and It Is thought that the, colonel will go to them Immediately it be is her on sick leave. 'Announcements ( the Theaters. That "Ols 01eson"t ts popular With the masses Is evidenced by tbe crowds that have flocked to see our Bwedlsh friend in every city visited thli season, tor, although It has been presented ' by ah inferior star snd company on one or two occasions, the mere fact that Ben Hendricks haa again taken up the play and appears la the title role it a guarantee of an enjoyable even' lng'a entertainment. . The production this season Is a revival ot the Swedlsh-Amert can dialect play that met with great favor all through the country some seasons ago, when Ben Hendricks first essayed ' the 8wedloh-Amerlcaa dlaleet role. In - the pressnt ' production the broken EnglUh of Ole Is readily understood, as Mr. Hendricks does not go to extremes with the dialect. The drama will be given at the Boyd tonight. . , .

Democrats Prepare for Primaries reralateat Renter that Nelson M ar ris Will Atrala Aeqnlre Prop erty ' in the Macte city. A fight for supremacy Is on between three Ice companies doing business In South Omaha, and for a time at least the con sumers will reap the benefit. Rates were made yesterday to butchers of 11H cents a - hundred pounds, while saloons are charged -16 cents per hundred. Private houses will be required to pay 25 cents a hundred. . It Is said that on account of the large crop harvested there will be lively competition. There Is plenty of ice and a further reduction In rates is looked for by some, as one of the big companies doing business here proposes to put the price so low that the other companies will be forced Into aa agreement or else be compelled to go out of business. There is an active hustle for business by the managers of the three companies and consumers are taking Ice . from the dealer who quotes the lowest, rate. One Ice dealer said yesterday that a suf ficient amount of Ice to last nearly two years had been harvested and that there was no telling when the fight on rates would end. Others say the war will not last long, as the prices quoted sre too low for profit, that an agreement will soon be reached and that the prices of last year will again be established. Democrats File Petitions Toalajbt. This evening from ( until 9 o'clock the democratic city central committee will hold forth at Judge Levy's office .In the Pack ers' , National bank building for the pur pose of receiving petitions filed by candi dates. When the petitions have been filed the committee will designate the ticket to be voted on at the primaries, which will be held on March 14. After this matter has been disposed of the committee will ap point Judges and clerks to conduct the primaries, which will be held under the Crawford system. ' There will1 be no con vention. On the day .following the prim aries the central - committee proposes to canvass the vote and Issue certificates of nomination. . Nets Morris Rnmors. It waa rumored here yesterday that when the Hammond plant was closed down Nels Morris, tbe Chicago packer, would lease the buildings and ' commence operations. This rumor is not credited In some cir cles, although some officials of the Ham- mond .company have Intimated that the plant here would not long be Idle. Rumors of Morris coming to South Omaha crop out every few months, but nothing definite can be learned about tbe Intentions of this well known Chicago packer. Pavement Needs Repairing. The asphalt pavement on the east aide ot Twenty-fourth street from E to J atreeta will have to be repaired this summer, as It has sunken to such an extent that pools of water and mud Interfere with traffic. From statements made by the city engineer it appears that the base Is not of sufficient depth to sustain the weight of the traffic and consequently he will recommend that the ' pavement bo taken up and broken tone filled in, - that the original ' grade may be maintained. The cost will be con slderable. bot es the work Is considered necessary tbe council . will , most likely soon appropriate money for the purpose. Library Hoard Sleeting. , A meeting of the South Omaha Library board has been called for this afternoon at' the .council chamber. It is expected the board , will organize by the selection of a president and secretary. Bids tor a site will most likely .be advertised for. There Is something like $500 In the lib rary fund now and this money can be used, providing the council sees fit, for tbe de fraying ot expense ot the board. Conncll Meeting- Tonight. While there la no special business ot Importance to. come up, the city council 111 meet tonight and allow the monthly appropriation sheet. There was some talk yesterday about the vacating of Railroad avenue, but members profess Ignorance of any such project. It is understood that the corporations have given It out that If the city does' not give up the street for track age purposes no viaduct across the tracks will be built . Regalar Mostkly ReMrti. The regular monthly meeting of the Board of Education ts billed for tonight and It Is expected there will be a quorum.

Sidney Drew, who are re turning to vaudeville after a season In the legitimate,, during which time they have been appearing In Frohman's production of Sweet and Twenty." which recently ended Its New York run, head a vaudeville bill at the Orpheum this week which Is hardly up to standard. Mr. and Mrs. Drew present a rather rough, but amusing, little comedy called "A Model Toung Man." Although the sketch Is laughable. It does not give either Mr. or Mrs. Drew opportunity to dis play the ability local theatergoers know both to possess. Fred Stubor Is a banjotst of rare ability. His equal as a performer has not been seen la this city since the famous McFarland appeared here in con cert some seasons ago.' Arthur Buckner does some rather sensational bicycle teats, but his work lacks the finish and graoe necessary to the success ot a professional In his line. 'The Da Coma family, three men and three women, do an acrobatic act composed only of conventional feats In this line. The .women are the cleverest portion of tbe troupe. Al Anderson Is the best coon grotesque' dancer on the stage, and were his act confined to dancing alone It would be praiseworthy, but with the poor singing and atale dialogue, between himself and Mamie Anderson, his partner. It falls little short of mediocrity. Jordan and Crouch, novelty, dancers; Werner and Rleder, ' Tyrolean . singers, and - Welch brothers, alleged comedians, complete the bill. ' At the Boy. Lewis Morrison's production of his own dramatization of Goethe's weird story, Faust," was given two performances at the Boyd Sunday to audiences that entirely filled the theater. Mr. Morrison, who has heretofore appeared in the role of Mephls topheles. Is not with the company this sea- sen. His place is taken by George S. Trim ble, a capable actor with a splendid voice, almost perfect enunciation and a person ality that cannot fall to win favor with an audience. The parts of Faust and Mar guerite are assumed by Mr. Charles Saioa and Miss Francis Paul, both rather ordi nary performers. . The engagement was for Sunday only. Mlaea's Troeadero. M. M. Thelse'a "Wine, Woman and Song" company opened a week's engagement at Manager Jake Rosenthal's playhouse yester day, drawing capacity business, both after noon and evening.

BOTH SIDES MAKE SOME CONCESSIONS Work In Den Not ta Be Controlled T felons, bat Contracts Are to 8 pee My Employment ot lalen Men. The points at Issue between tbe repre sentatives of organlxed labor and the board of governors of the Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben have been settled and nothing now stands In the way of the board' In Ita work ot ar ranging for the greatest fall festival In the history ot the order. For several weeks the matter ot reach ing an understanding was discussed. Last fall the question waa deferred until Just before the work on the street carnival grounds began. Then It was found that the board had let a contract for the con struction of booths to a man who employed nonunion labor. An attempt was then made to force the employment pf union labor, but It failed. This year the Central Labor unton de cided to have the matter settled early and the president was authorized to appoint committee to take the question up ,with the board of governors. This action com ing to their attention, the members ot the board Immediately decided to meet the union half way and adopted a resolution to the effect that no attempt would be made to raise funds for the parade until the question was disposed of, and all danger of trouble avoided. , For a week or two the committees failed to meet, but Friday evening the board of governors and the representatives of the Interested unions held a meeting, at which all questions were settled and a stipulation drawn up to be signed this week whereby the parties are bound for a year. Board Itecoaniaes Union Labor. According to the terms of the stipulation the representatives of the labor unions waived certain demands and the board of governors for the first time in its existence recognised organized labor officially. It Is provided that all men to be employed by the board ot governors for work either at the den or upon the street carnival shall be members of organised labor and shall draw the scale provided .by their unions, but that inside the den all rules as to the' division of labor shall be waived and that each man employed shall work aocordlng to the instructions of the super intendent; that whenever the board shall make a contract for . the construction ot any work in that contract it shall be pro vided that , none but union . labor ahall be employed where such workmen are or ganised,. It waa expected that the trouble between the Electrical Workers' anion and the elec- trlo lighting company would make a solu tion of the questions between the labor unions and the board of governors dif ficult, but when the matter was under stood It was learned that the electric light company did no wiring - on the carnival grounds, for which It was paid by the board of governors, so that matter was beyond the power of the board to regulate and was dropped from consideration. Organised Labor's Support. The board will now have the united sup' port of organized labor for the first time in Its efforts to raise funds and will imme diately appoint ita hustling committee and start the campaign. " ' It Is probable that the work ot lnitta tlon at the den will begin . earlier this season than last.- The hustling committee found last year that during the excessively hot weather of July and August tbe pros pectlve candldatea for Initiation were wary and objected when the exertion ruined linen, and the result waa that the total initiation was somewhat below' that of the preceding year.

Advocates of women suffrage find their greatest opposition In the earnest, serious. aober-mlnded. good people who believe that the ballot In the handa of tbe women would disrupt the borne." So said Miss Laura Oregg la a lecture before the Philosophical society Sunday afternoon. "The organised movement in opposition to woman suffrage," she said, "started In Masaacbusetts and today there are organizations In four states, Massa chusetts, New York, Illinois and Iowa." "One of women's bitterest opponents." she continued, "la Dr. Buckley, who says women are too emotional to vote, and had women been In power In Kentucky when the governor of that atate was shot there would have been confusion confounded.-" While the speaker admitted that women were emotional by aaylng that recently at convention held In Lincoln the women raised $1,000 In twenty minute and then actually applauded and felt happy, they bad never during a convention wasted two hours of valuable time climbing over each other and shouting and cheering, as the men did at the national democratic conven tion, and the republicans. Including some of the most solemn and dignified men In the world, had acted at their last conven tion. In speaking of politics disrupting the home, Mlsa Oregg sald "There should not be tyranny on the one hand and sub jection on the other, and It auch a condi tion exists then the sooner the family is disrupted the better."
