of rain, burst over it. The great
ropes snapped like thread, and the

bird on its nest, covering lamps pull
pit and congregation under its vast
folds. Men, women and children
rose to their feet, shriekinS and run

Undesirable. The widest confus-

swept from their fasteninSs, and
burst into one wild glare that illumi-
mated the darkness for an instant and
then fell into the mass of dry straw
that covered every foot of ground

and would have consumed all if the
