A MARRIAGE IN THE ENDOWMENT HOUSE,
swimming about me. could not find the
lady's hand, and the Prophet had to guide
my hand to hers; then the deed was done,
and fell back insensible upon the floor"
The poor woman could not 20 on for weep
ing, AID Tsea4 put her arms about her,
with her own clear eyes sutfused and her
fair face strained and white with indigna-
ton. What could be said Of such treat
menti What were words worth in such Q
oasei o, for clauses Of firel for sentences
that Kissed like vipers with which to empty
her soul Of it, loathing She sat still and
pale for awhile, holding the elder woman's
head upon her bosom, and letting her ease
her sore and weary heart in tears; then she
said, brokenly: "Let US CO."
The sun had long since consumed itself
upon the western heights, and the shadows
Of dusk were gathering in the valley. They
arose and passed down in silence; but half
that night Treap Hartman mentally revolved
herb eloved sisters story, and its shame and
heartless cruelty swayed her sensitive
spirit like reed. She felt, through her
love for Elchard, how like tearing the heart
asunder would be such an experience, and
she promised her soul, as she lay there
alone in the darkness, that whatever might
come, even to death itself, she should never
be untrue to the sweet light that per-
vaded it.
She tried to picture to herself what her
sister must have suffered in the ten years
that followed, in bearing that burden
which, when it was laid upon her in the
Endowment House, had crushed her sense
less to the earth. She thought of her sis
ter's first night of bereavement; Of how
much Of agony must have been crowded
into tho hours as she paced to aud fro in
her room until the dawn came, with her
husband and his new wife under the same
roof. Surely souls In the neither world
were never more wrapped in tormenting
fire than was hers that night Then the
days that came after, stretching away into
years, and each day fresh wound, until at
last love was dead, her bosom empty Of
hope, and she drifted away from the I'M
worthy one who had won her, like .
wrecked ship from rotten moorings. This
was polygamy!-the foundation Of Mormon
ism, . religion which had dragged them
away from home and kindred, across q
thousand miles Of desert with death and
suffering, to penury, indignity and life.
wreclxago among these lonely mountains.
The girls heart ached, and tears stood in
her eyes as she lay looking up into the mid
night darkness. But at last the darkness
which 10 peopled with dreams closed merci-
fully over her, the tears dried up ON her
sweet checks, the dawn came, and with it
Elchard, bringing light and love, but fol-
Owed by evil feet.

CHAPTER XII,

AN ATTEMPT AT HEALING.
Elchard slept but little during the night
that preceded his visit to Trean. He was
Writing until . late hour, and, after lying
down, he busted himself with old memories

Of death, and its possessions Of hope and
love, held him in long and shsrpest wake

OF pines below the mines, saddled his horse
and rode down the mountain side.
All about him rose huge battlements Of
stone, natures vast masonry, heaped with
black banks Of darkness and ghostly with
the groups of shadows and silent pines,
while far above him hung the Eagle peaks
Griszlsd and misty in tho waning moon, and
tsr below the valley lay dim and formless
and vague. The ride was lonely and unsafe,
but what lover ever counted danger and
darkness Au4ht save to make the smile
seem sweeter which should meet him ct the

God might roll forth and I'LL the world. The
Priest said this was electric prayer; that
the faith and strength Of the two circles,
be ing connected with him, passed up in his
prayer and laid hold on the heart Of the Al
mighty.
1--WE were then given an oath Of special
obedience to the Prophet, accompanied by Q
grip which is called the grip Of the nail
1t consisted In clasping each other around
the hand with the point of the index finger
resting on the wrist, and the little fingers
linked together, the point on the wrist
where the index finger rests being tho sup
posed spot where the nails were driven
through the wrists Of Christ. The penalty
Tor revealing this oath and grip il to have
the heart torn out, cut up in small pieces,
and thrown to the fowls Of the air. This
concluded the Second Degree.
I'VE were then led by Q stairway to an
upper room. The ceremonies had already
lasted i've hours, and was 90 weary, and
sick In body and at heart, had to be assist

was divided by = curtain, and in the curtain
was door, and in the door . hole, covered
by lap of cloth, through which to pass the

and person representing the Apostle Peter
appeared at the opening and asked who was
there. He was told that the Saints desired
to enter. A hand then came through the
hole and cut . mysterious mark in the mon .

and upon the knee. The women were In

ANOTHER ELEVATOR.
Company with Capital Stock of One Hun
dred Thousand Doilars--A Half Million
Bushel Capacty-Charter Filed
Work to Commence

For many long months there has been
more or less elevator talk, and principally
more. Sometimes there would be NAM
moth elevator in sight and later it would
disappear. During all the agony and hur-
rah all along this line some fellow outside
was going to put up the cash for the enter
prise. Finally, reminded of the swallow
that did not get frightened at the neigh
bors going TO cut the wheat, some of the
leading business men decided TO put up an
elevator. They were tired of threats
from others and having implicit faith in
the conditions making the success of the
enterprise assured they had no fears about
going into the business.
Accordingly two or three weeks ago
meeting was held, attended, some of those
who had concerned themselves in the mat
ter, and it was agreed to organize a com
pany with a capital stock of 500, 900 which
would put up an elevator with half
million bushels capacity. From this de-
cisiOn charter was made out aud has
been filed. The concern will be known as
the Union Grain and Elevator company,
with a capital stock of 100000.
The stockholders are George L. Pratt,
George p. Glaze, A. A. Hyde, NJ c. Camp
bell, Findlay Ross, L. G. Jackson, y. F.
Neiderlander, Frank Williams, A. w.
Biting. They will hold a meeting not
later than the first of next week and
organize the company and proceed at once
to business. 1t is proposed to put up an
elevator with a storage capacity of half a
million bushels, and machinery able to
handle twenty-five car loads of grain per
day. The first thing as outlined by a
member of the company will be to employ
an architect who makes that class of work
a speciality and who will utilize all the
modern elevator improvements.
Great care will be taken in this matter
ane having the right plans and specifca-
tions will proceed to comply with them in
the most thorough manner.
The location question has not yet been
fully settled. Two or three sites are under
considerations and one will be selected
within few days. OF course it is desired
to get a location that will be easily reached
by all railroads to secure the best shipping
facilities.
1t is scarcely thought possible to get
ready to handle much of this years crop,
but it is thought there will be many crops
in the Arkansas valley and the plant will
be ready for business next year. The COM
pany will be ready to handle the next crop
Of wheat at any rate. 1t is also thought
by some that when it is clearly demon
strated that Wichita capital has the cour-
age to go into the business it will have a
tendency ia brace up outside companies in
the same business; give them more conf
dence in the surroundings favorable for
the business and the result will be more
elevators for Wichita. 1t is quite certain
that one year hence results of this kind
will put in an appearance and possibly the
start in the line of elevators will find more
than one company putting in plants in less
than single short year.

UNITED STATES COURT,
The Clyde Maddux Case Consumed the Entire
Day and is not Yet Disposed OF.

The Clyde MadduX case, wherein the
prisoner is charged with murder, occupied
the United States district court yesterday
and was not fully completed. The court
took a short recess during the forenoon to
wait for absent witnesses and with this ex-
ception the case took up the entire day.
The defendant was put upon the stand
and testified at length, telling virtually the
same story that has been already published.
He claims to have been acting in good
faith, supposing that as deputy marshal
he was entitled to possession of the office.
The evidence was all in last night and the
argument will be heard first thing this
morning.
The attorneys in the Richardson murder
case gave notice that they were ready for
trial and made a motion to have the case
put on the docket for this term. The
victim in this affair was a colored soldier
named Robinson.
An Indian named James Baldwin pleaded
guilty as charged in four indictments, and
was sentenced on the charge of larceny to
two months in Jail Sentence in the other
three cases was suspended.
The grand jury have thus far found
ninety-eight indictments, besides those
that have already been published. A new
batch will be reported today.

4 KIND WORD.

The Clisses Tribune has the following:
One of the rising young men of Kansas is
II. L. Gordon, of Wichita, or as he is gen
orally known. Harry Gordon, He is a
young man. but is an attorney of high at
tainments and of no mean ability, as was
demonstrated at the trial of the noted
Stevens county case which was tried re-
Gently at Paris, Texas. Mr.. Gordon was
one of the attorneys for the defendants,
aud those who heard his argument in the
case, say that it was one of the most bril-
liant, eloquent and logical arguments
they ever heard. Mr. Gordon is also climb
ing up the political ladder with giant
strides. Although, as we have stated,
merely young.man. he has been electedto
the responsible position as secretary of
the congressional central committee Of the
Big Seventh district, and was chairman Of
Sedgwick delegation at Topeka this week.
We predict for this young man brilliant
future. and a speedy rise 70 a position of
popularity and renown such as is enjoyed
by very few young men of his age in the
state.

Where Hair Comes From.

The hair crop annually required 70 feed
the hungry nav of fashion is almost en-
tirely collected in France, Belgium and
Germany English and American women
rarely ever sell their hair. Black hair
comes from Brittany and the south Of
France, as well as from Spain and Italy,
whilst light hair is the product Of Ger
many and the northern states of Europe
The fairest haired inhabitants Of the earth
are generally to be found north Of the
forty -eighth parallel OF latitude. and the
darkest south Of the forty-ffth, whilst the
belt between the two Is kind Of neutral
ground populated by brown haired race.

A Modern Nero.

Two members Of a class that recently
graduated from a Maine college possessed
a pipe with an immense bowl and long
stem. A Whit at their pipe was popular
recreation among members Of the class.
and almost every evening the boys would
congregate in the room occupied by the
proprietors of the pipe. A coteTie Of boon
comrades was thus speedily formed, and
several aspirants for the ministry were in
cluded. 1t was but a step from smoking
the big pipe 20 card playing and bibbing
The big pipe that was the prime cause Of
all this backsliding was dubbed Nero"
because sit had killed so many Christians. "
