weather set in, Aunt Manda Golf realized
that somebody must do something, and
knowing that there is no one on whom a
person can rely so certainly as on ones
self, she took the matter in her own hands
and set to work to get up wood chopping.
Little Tommy Brown rode about over the
settlement and invited every man for miles
around, not even neglecting the Squire, and
on the morrow Mary was surprised when,
at an early hour, the me- ghbors began TO ar
rive with axes and teams for the purpose of
getting up supply of wood for the winter.
She was also somewhat taken aback when
she bethought herself that all these men
must have dinner, and that there was really
but little in the house with which to pro
vide Ii.
II don't know what I'm ever TO do" she
remarked in fit of despair as she sank
back in a chair. "Those men are kind, and
the Lord knows need their assistance. but

'She jest thought she mout es well fetch or

Mary cried, she was so overcome with

people, she found all her pleasure in doing
good and none in talking of il.

built and the lines extended in every direc-
ton, so that they now have 135 miles Of
track, 300 horses, 1900 horsepower OF
cables and over 1000 large cars. During
the past year or two a syndicate organized
by Mr.. Holmes has secured control Of the
leading street-car lines of Indianapolis, Ind,
St. Louis, Mo-, Los Angeles, Cal, Daven-
port, Ia, and Rock Island andMoline, ILL.,
That during these years OF enterprise he
has accumulated snug fortune goes with
out saying; and as he has always tried to
please the public which patronizes his
street-car lines, ne has perhaps fewer enc
mics than any man in public life. Mr..
Holmes hobby is, as has already been
stated, Sunday-school which he organized
about eleven years ago in the North divi-
sion ct Chicago, a portion of the city inhab-
tied chiefly by poor foreigners. The school
at the present time has over three thousand
pupils, who are divided into regiments and
companies and are addressed by Mr..
Holmes and others every Sunday afternoon.
Connected with the school is relief bureau
which does much toward relieving the
necessities Of the pupils, hundreds of them
being supplied with clothing By the patrons
of the bureau, chief among whom is Mr..
Holmes. 1t is always a pleasure to honor
an honest, self-made man, but it is not often
that one finds as ample ground for praise as
in this instance. G. W. WEIPPIERT.

1t was along toward the middle of the az
ternoon, and the pile Of wood was assuming
large proportions, when the old Squire rode
down the lane from his mansion, and turn
ing in at the bars, followed the track down
to the timber where the men were at
work. As soon as he came in sight they
all knew he was mad. They could tell
that by the way he carried himself, and
some of them trembled with fear, for they
well knew the form of his wrath. Riding
up to the first group he roughly demanded:
.sWhat do you fellows mean by SIGH
doin's es thisl Don't you know that when
/ want wood chopped here I've got money
to hire it donep'
For a moment no one spoke, then Jase
Cobb stepped forward and SAID:

Look out, thar look outr" four or five
voices shouted at once just then, but either
the Squire did not Lear or would not heed,
and the next instant falling tree brushed
him from his horse and left him a badly
bruised and unconscious mass on the earth.

running up, ''but he could er got away eft

OF n1s sect, but has never won the anec.

Unlike DIR. Withrow, who has been called
the most unaffected man In the pulpit, Dr..
Cheney makes painful impression on
hearers not accustomed to his ways, BY
dealing in far-fetched metaphors and by
drawing out his words to seemingly end
less length. His friends claim that the
Bishop is free from affectation, that he
acts and speaks in the pulpit just as he
would in a parlor. If such is the case it
would seem-to man up in a tree, at least
that he would make very t.resome and
nerve-trying companion at surprise party.
DIR. Cheney's greatest virtue is charity,
and hundreds of poor people have been
saved by him from hunger, sQualor and
misery. In this labor Of love the Bishop
employs no agents, but takes 1t upon him
self to comfort the homeless and the father
less. He has always ''done good by stealth,
and now bushes to find it fame" That q
man of such q disposition should gather
around him host Of personal friends Ii
natural, and that he has succeeded in
making the Reformed Episcopal church re-
spectacle in point of numbers as well as
principles, must be gratifying to all who
love fair play and love to see devotion and
enterprise rewarded.
Turning from the pulpit to the Sunday
school rooms, every man acquainted with
Chicago affairs win think Of Charles B.
Holmes, the general manager of the greatest
street railway syndicate ever organized,
and the superintendent and teacher of the
largest Sunday.school in the world. Mr..
Holmes was born in Springfield, Vt, in
1S40, but removed to Illinois with his
parents in 1885, He received thorough
common-school and academic education.
He earned his first money as farm hand,
in which capacity he worked for twelve
dollars per month. Afterward he engaged
in railroad surveying and farming in North
ern Iowa. In 1868 Mr.. Holmes removed to
Chicago, where he became manager of tho
Union Line Transportation Company and
later the superintendent of the Chicago
City Railway Company, which owns all the
surface street-car lines in the South divis-
ion of Chicago. Under his management
the magnificent cable system of roads was
