The little daupbter of a ST. Pan

The little daughter of st. Paul
(Minn.) clergyman discovered on a re-
cent Sunday that several of the buttons
on her best boots were missing. Her
mother proposed to sew them on, but
the young lady had too much respect
for the fourth commandment to allow
it. However, as the alternative was to
stay away from Sunday-school or sew
on the buttons, she at last made COM
promise with her conscience by saying
to her mother: "Well, mamma, you
sew and I'll pray" and pray she did,
kneeling by her mothers side until the
buttons were on

CHAPTER III.

The six years that followed the death
of his wife and the loss of his child
passed wearily to James Durant. He
visited nearly every country i'll the Old
World, seeking among scenes of naural
beauty and grandeur as well as of his
toric interest for the mental rest which
could never be found. Once more he
turned his steps toward America, and
sought his Masonic friend, Wadsworth.
Finding that gentleman about setting
out with his family on a journey to the
Atlantic coast, Mr.. Durant accepted the
invitation to accompany them to Sara
toga and Niagara, then to New York,
where, leaving the ladies, Mr.. Wads-
worth and Mr.. Durant wandered along
the coast, enjoying the beauty of the
scenery and the hospitality that greeted
them more than the crowded hotels and
the fashionable style of the popular
watering places.
Fancy and the kind hand of Provi-
dence at length led them to the little
town of B, and the second evening
after their arrival they visited the Ma
sonic lodge. A warm welcome was ex-
tended to these brethren from such dis
tant homes, and both were invited to
address the lodge Mr.. Durant said:
Brethren-I have travelled much
and long. have found Masonic SYM
pathy in every part of the globe, and
everywhere is Masonry substantially
the same. l can hardly tell where /
reside. The world seems to be my
home, as | remain but short time in
any town or country, but my name is
recorded in an English lodge. / love
my English brethren, for they first
brought me from darkness to light
and love English soil, for in it sleeps
the wife of my youth. But love Amer
ican also, for here have / received the
warmest of welcomes, the kindest of
brethren. And, too, my own child is
sleeping in American waters, even be-
meath the very waves that wash the
shores of your beautiful village.
"SiX years have passed since this
dear friend and brother robbed himself
of his life-preserver, that my little Eva
might perhaps escape, and we hoped
the elements might be kind and that
Heaven would send her relief, but she
was never heard of any more"
nG NOlCC VI was AlulNtT-
ing with emotion, and unable to speak
further, he seated himself and covered
his face with his hands.
Chances of surprise and pleasure were
cast from one to another among the
brethren of Hiram Lodge. No one
spoke, however, but all eyes turned
upon the master, Mr.. Turner. For a
moment he seemed rejecting; then TAX
ing a slip of paper from the Secretary
he wrote:
"Mrs. Turner: Do not allow Eva to
retire until return home; tell her am
going TO bring astrange gentleman who
wishes 10 see her"
And calling the junior deacon Mr..
Turner gave him the note, saying, in a
low voice:
"Take this note to Mrs, Turner inn
mediately."
"Why, Eva, said Mrs. Turner, when
she had read the message" you are GO
ing to have company. A strange gem
tleman is at the lodge-room who wishes
TO see you.
Eva looked perplexed and thought
ful; suddenly her cheeks flushed, her
eyes lighted, and clapping her little
hands, she sprang TO her feet and ex-
claimed:

BLACK HILLS NEWSPAPERS.

The TIL. got way of this morning in
speaking Of the 6rst daily paper in the Hills.
1t says: "The Black Hills bulletined daily
press dispatches at Central City before the
line was run to Deadwood." Go a little
slow, Mr.. T. H., the Times is the first daily
paper Of the Hills BY 3 big margin, and was
under full sail at least five months before
you opened at Central.-Deadwood Times.
The editor is always at the mercy Of the
composition. If that word "Central" had
read Custer" We could have demonstrated
that the Times is tolerably slender" in the
country. Our big bulletins down below
were put up more than five months before
you left the states, At which time the under
brush stood where your Office does now, and
a wall tent was pitched o. the site Of, Steb-
bins, Wood & Posts bank building, The
first issue Of paper from our Lead City

than any other in the Black Hills. At that
