pared for the u~niortunates a substantial
dinner in which turkey was the principal
dish, although other delicacies were not
wanting. The meal was served at about 2
o'clock, much to the delight of the prison
ers. Under Sheriff Buzzo was master OF
ceremonies, and the ladies, who were out in
full force, acted as walters. There were
some religious exercises, but they were of
an informal character, consisting princi-
pally OF singing and exhortation. The re-
cipients OF the bounty expressed themselves
as highly gratified Tor the attention and
the kindness that prompted the act.
IN H ALOON
A due regard for truth compels the ad-
mission that the saloons were better pat
ronized than the churches. In most OF the
leading resorts special and elaborate lunch
es were served, and the places were thronged
from the forenoon until midnight. In a
camp like Butte, where there are so many
unmarried men, this is not to be wondered
at. The men have no home ties, no place
to visit, and to sit in a lonely O on q
holiday, is a task that tries the virtue and
patience OF anything less than a hermit. In
the large saloons they were reasonably sure
to meet and make acquaintance and pass
an hour or two in congenial and social
company. Among the most elaborate
lunches were those OF the California brewery
where oysters, turkey and salad were
spread in rich %profusion. At the Centen-
NAL Brewery there was no end to roast
turkey and other delicacies. There was also
a fine layout at the St. Louis Beer Hall, and
in many other places. No one had any
need Of being hungry, and those who had
money did not go dry. There was, howev.
er, little or no drunkenness, and the city
was exceedingly quiet.

ONLY 4 STRANGER DRUMMER.
An Abuse Of Ordinary Confidence Made Il
Cost Him 817.00.

An Abuse Of Ordinary Confidence Made to
Cost Him S17.00
Yesterday IL was noticed that Grant Phillips
had been complained against before Alderman
Barr, on the charge of embezzlement, be-
cause he kept 50 which was given him by
George Speigle, a drummer, to pay for a
team hired by that gentleman from David
Haverstick. The police were unable to
find Phillips, so yesterday Haverstick brought
suit before Deem against Speigle, charging
him with cruelty to animals and to recover
the hire for the horse. The young man was
arrested and being an entire stranger here
was held for hours before he could find
friend to aid him. Finally q
brother drummer came to his assistance.
AS the young man did not care to be delay
arrest, he agreed to pay the amounts claimed
which footed up sl7.99, distributed as fol.
lows Horse hire, s. for abuse OF horse, $40
and costs, 800 After paying out the money
Speigle was discharged.
There had been no hearing in the case, or
there Is no telling where the costs would
have ended.
Mr.. Speigle complains bitterly of his treat
ment here and he certainly has good reason
for 80 doing.
From all that can be learned the horse was
in good condition when he was given to
by Speigle The former drove him for more
than two hours, during which time he abused
him. MIR. Speigle thought the horse had been
taken to the stable and knew nothing of
young Phillips caperA When Phillips could
not be found the suits were brought against
Speigle, who was compelled to pay a large
sum OF money when he was guilty OF nothing
wrong except his negligence in sending the
horse to the stable by boy who seems to
have abused his confidence.

How He Made Himself Festive at the Expense

was being driven along Orange street, when
at the corner of North Queen he frightened at
something and started to back. lie ran the
wagon against one of the wooden pcgts sup

A very happy company was gathered in
the lecture room of Grace church last even
ing to listen to the music of the orchestra of
nine performers under skillful leadership,
to enjoy the decorative variety of the flowers
and exotics and to partake of the esculent re-
past arranged so tidily and lavishly by the
ladies of the church, who with a valued corps
of assistants gave delightful treat to all
those who came. The floral and cake tables
were peculiar institutions and were like the
supper itself, so well patronized that fears
were expressed lest the supplies arranged
might not suffice. But owing to repeated re-
newals of the toothsome items of the bill of
fare and indefatigable efforts of the ladies,
the whole menu from the first item to the
last succulent berry, was a success and the
throng tonight as indicated will be even
greater than was that of an evening ago. A
change OF the menu will be given.

posed of ten people. Misses Kunkle and
Moflit are the leading singers IN the Lloyd
street synagogue, Baltimore, and Miss
Weems is professional soubrette. The per-
formance opened with Oflenbach's operetta

voice. Everybody was delighted with the
company and they will likely have a large
audience this evening.

For n Horse Good Walking Gait Il
Preferable.
A good walking gait for horse is
best. Few farmers think of this; most
of them want the colt to be trotter.
The trotter craze has been an awful
curse to the country. 1t makes me sick
to think of it. How many young men
have gone to the bad on account of it;
and what good does it all do? The
horses of to-day are not the equals in
endurance of those of the fathers. The
horses of earlier days did more and
harder work, lived longer and kept
sounder than ours. They trot faster
now but what of that? 1t is virtue,
ifit is, which makes vice, Teach the colt
to walk, to start on walk, and to keep
on walking till it is bidden to go faster;
such a colt will make a pleasant driver
and last longer. and will be worth a
great deal more to a sensible man.
Break the colt before he is harnessed
to any vehicle. 1t will make a safer
and more easily managed animal.

saved the team because he would not
run away with his mate. He walked,

left them without tying, and it was cold.
A fast-walking horse will go further
and faster than one broken TO go by
spurts, and do it easier and last longer
When a working horse is pushed TO 6
trot it will walk every chance it gets
and walks slow to get its breath and
rest. A driving horse with a light draft
can trot with more ease, but good
walker on long heat will make the
time much sooner than one could sup,
pose. .-Fraakiin d. curtis, Rirkb1

even. l understand, now; and all these
years you have waited to go to herp'
Yes said the old man, 'it was q
long time before / cared for life after
she left mo. 1t was so hard to think
that she who had for so long been the
object of my tenderest solicitude was be-
yond any care-taking of mine. Twas sure
she needed me, and l could not go to
her. All, that thought was so bitter.
My faith assured mo of her happiness
in Heaven, but my self refused to be
comforted. My only solace was my
organ, and il was then learned of the
divine comfort of music, the glorious
harmony which God has given to His
children. None but those who have
sorrowed will understand it, for only
unto them has it been revealed. At
last | came to this country and to this
town, and became the organist of the
church from which we came tonight
Every Easter even since she left me L
have played the Halleluiah, and Thekla
has listened. Here have lived alone
and waited-waited to go to Thekla,
but ah l did not think the dear God
would keep me from her so long"
The old organists voice grew faint,
and Paul said:
dear friend, you are not well; let
me stly with you tonight"
mo, Paul, dear boy, it is nothing.
Go home and do not be sorrowful be-
cause of what have told you tonight.
l love you, my dear pupil, and l am
glad / opened my heart to you. Good
night, sleep well, and hope that the
Easter morning may be bright and
beautiful
With q warm hand-clasp the two
friends parted, Paul filled with many
misgivings and half inclined to insist
upon remaining with the old man.
The next morning when he reached the
church the organist was not there, and
fearing, he knew not what, Paul hast
encd to his home. The old man lived
alone, and Paul finding that the outer
door yielded to his touch, entered and
opened the room in which the previous
evening had been spent. His heart
sank within him rs he saw, in the milst
of the sunlight which streamed through
the window, the lamp still burning rs
when he departed, while on the lounge
| before the ashes of the burned out lire
lay the form of the old organist just as
he had left him. Hastily touching the
cold hand and quiet heart, Paul found
| his worst fears confirmed.
While the robins We're singing their
Easter anthems in the early quiet OF
that resurrection morning, the old man
had gone to Thekla, and with her he
joined in the "seven-folo chorus OF
hallelujahs and harping symphonies" "
