ands Of women Of whose bravery and self
sacrifice and glory of character the world
has made no record, but whose deeds are
in the heavenly archives of martyrs who
fought the battle alone, and, though un-
recognized for the short thirty Or fifty or

shall through the quintillion ages of the

Let me also say for the encouragement of
all women fighting the battle of life alone
that their conflict will soon end. There is
one word written over the faces of many of
them, and that word is Despair. My sister.
you need appeal to that Christ who COM

forgot all the pangs of his own hands, and
feet and heart as he looked into the face of
maternal anguish and called friends at

And you are the daughter of the regiment

A SUNDAY STORY.
A Misguided Man, Bad Woman and
Wicked Boy.

Mrs. St. Clair, alias Forbes, a woman
about As years Of age, was found dead in
a tenement in this city about two weeks
ago. The coroner's jury decided that dis.
solution had been induced by natural
causes. During the inquest it developed
that deceaeed was a member of a family
of notorious crooks. 1t was learned posi-
lively that the woman, her son and hus-
band, had been incarcerated in the Canon
City, Colo, pen%itentiary for robberies
committed in Denver.
The son, Fred st. Clair, was, and still
it, held in Laramie City on the charge of
highway robbery. The husband and
father was said to be in the City of Mex
leo teaching the Castilians the art of
properly performing on the violin, piano
and organ.
Now comes the remarkable portion of
the narrative. Instead of residing in the
Mexican metropolis Prot. St. Clair was
moving in the best society Of San Bernar-
dino, Cal. Among the residents of the
Pacific Slope city he was known as a
single gentleman of culture and means.
The very day, and almost the very hour
that Mrs. st. Clair, the pauper wife of
the Californian, died in this city, the de-
ceitful soul of her husband left its earthly
habitation beneath the blue skies Of the
Orange Grove state. st. Clair was at
tended by respectable friends during his
final illness and wanted for nothing. In
strange contrast was the miserable demise
Of the forsaken wife. No kind hands
ministered to the wants of the folorn crea.
ture. Even in this Christian community
she died alone.
An examination of st. Glars effects
shed light on his mysterious career. The
Denver episode was made public, and
those who read learned that the middle
aged bachelor had twice been married
Two girls. whose whereabouts are un
known, were the issue of his first ALI
ance.
From a Cheyenne gentleman who knew
the family in Ohio, much more of theil
interesting history has been learned. st
Clair was a college professor and he and hi
wife were persons of considerable socia
prominence. Fred, now the Laramie iai
bird, was an incorrigible youth. Wher
still but an infant he was placed in a re
form school by the father against the
wishes of the mother. After a term il
the institution he was brought home
and carefully trained and closely watches
for months. Despite the vigilance O.
pater familias the youngster one nigh
essayed the role of burglar and with sew
eral companions was captured while rob
bing a hardware store. Events following
this occurrence induced the family to EN-
igrate, and they were next heard of il

TIE GAME Is Made
Saloons Open Notwithstanding the sun
day Law.

A LEADER reporter who sailed forth
about 2 o'clock this morning for the pur,
pose of corralling a stray item observed
that the saloons known as all-night houses
were doing business openly as prior to the
enactment of the Sunday law. These
resorts number about half a dozen. Two
gambling houses were still open and the
third had just closed.
1t is pretty well understood that neither
the municipal or county officers will at.
tempt to enforce the law, but that the old
40 to , o'clock" ordinance will be OBJ,
served.
The validity of the Sunday law will
doubtlessly be tested at once.
