"Has he spoken again of his little
girl ?'
"Oh, if he only lives long enough to
know that we are not all murderers %
The village was full OF warm, hospit-
able, Christian feeling, and the thought
that a stranger had lain among them,
starving to death in his despair, Tor a
week. had reused them all.
Late that morning, when Jean had
wakened from his deadly lethargy, old
Boyce came skulking I'D to the minis
ter's door. Some OF his neighbors met
him and turned their heads the other
way. They had long known the man
ner of man he was; this was only the
elimination of his life of sham piety
and meanness.
The old doctor met him at the door.
Here is the portmanteau. [ had it
safe three days ago." he muttered. and
turned away.
The doctor carried it in and laid it on
the bed. Jean gave a low cry and
caught it in his bony hands. 81 can go
back to my little girl now" he whis
pered.
The beople of that village did not do
good by halves. They sent Sam. Nelson,
a promising young lawyer to Washing
ton, with jeans papers to substantiate his
claims. While he was gone they
nursed the old man back to health and
strength. handing him about from
house to house, and farm to arm, an
honored guest. A great trunk was pre-
pared and filed with gifts for little
Rose. The women sent pretty dresses,
the children dolls clothes, acoT.s tea
sets, glass pitchers small enough for the
fairies TO use.
Sam. Nelson returned triumphant,
with money enough to make Jean rich.

Chamber of Commerce.

The regular monthly meeting Of the
Chamber of Commerce, held on Mon
day evening of this week, had the larg-
est attendance Of any meeting since the
organization Of the body, and a harmo-

The proposed city charter was then
taken up and read and adopted by sec

an act allowing the county commission
ers of Morrison county to issue bonds to
an amount not exceeding S40, 600, to bear
interest at per cent and to be sold at
NOT less than par, for the purpose Of

The Union MeetinrS.

The late revival meetings conducted
by Rev. c. W. Merrill, of Minneapolis.
were exceedingly interesting and profit
able to those who attended them. Mr..
Merrill sticks closely to the Gospel text.
He truly preached the Gospel, and not
Mr.. Merrill Or any one else. His SER
mons were entirely free from the emo.
tional, exciting element so common in
times past. They were earnest, clear
and forcible, and strictly orthodox. He
closed his meetings on Wednesday
evening with strong appeal to Chris
tiars to live closer to Christ, and to
think more Of Christia nifty than of de-
nomination.
The full results in conversions it would
be too early to estimate, but there is no
doubt that the churches will be much
strengthened by this united effort and
the earnest Gospel truth as presented
by Mr. Merrill. d.

The coming city election has as yet ut

nation oftickets is rather slow. There
is general sentiment among Ill class
es however. that Mr.. A. Tanner would
make most excellent mayor, and if he
will consent to be candidate for the
Office there would probably be no
opposition to his election. The city
should now be united in all important
matters, and the former style of having
a red hot fight At every local election
just for the fun of the thing should be
abandoned. All who have the good Of
the city at heart should unite in electing
first class mayor and council and the
benefits will be felt by taxpayers and
citizens
