FROM SWANS BRUSH.

An Incident of Winter Mining Life in the
Rocky Mountains.
The latest production from the brush of
Robert Swain, Of Helena, was placed on
exhibition at the California wine house
yesterday. 1t attracted a great deal of at
tention. It is lone in oils and represents a
Christmas visit to q miners cabin in the
hills. There is an air of homely good
cheer about the scene that almost invites
the onlooker to step inside the mountain
home. In the foreground stands the cabin
with the snow sitting and driving over its
roof. Down the slope of the mountain on
the right are the two yisi-
tors coming rapidly on their
Norwegian snow shoes bearing their part of
the good things. In front of the cabin,
waving his cap in the air. stands q miner,
and in the door his bearded and stalwart
partner appears. his face aalow with well
come. 1t 10 not an ideal scene, but was
sketched from nature by Mr.. Swain, and
has u charm all it's own from the fact that
1t was painted only when the mood was on
lin. 1t is q simple little scene, yet 1t is
one of the many beautiful stories of human
life. II Mr.. Swain consents it will be
placed in the Montana building at the
Worlds fair.

To THE INDEPENDENT: Your article in
yesterdays INDEPENDENT, copied from tho
O%regonian, is 80 manifestly incorrect that I
think it proper l should stats just what was
said. which was: That the state senate was
democratic. but would be PRECEDED over by
q republican. That if the Box Elder pre-
cinct were ordered counted the house would
stand twenty-six republicans. twenty-si1
democrats. and three %populists, the lat
ter having heretofore been republicans. but
it was not known how they would vote,
presumably with the republicans. I fur
they said that the rumor in Portland that
Senator Sanders had withdrawn from the
senatorial race must be incorrect, and that
] was quite sure he would be n candidate.
I did not say that the republicans would
contest the election of several democrats,

SANDERS THE CHOICE.

He Will Have the Empty Honor of Being
Nominated by His Party Caucus.
According to the testimony of those who
are on the inside the Carter senatorial
boom has been pricked, and SO has that of
Mr.. Mantle, while w. f. Sanders stock is
on the rise. Said q prominent republican
yesterday, a man who is close to the throne:
Sanders will be the choice of the republi-
can legislative caucus for state senator.
Carter has played double so often that he
has lost a large majority of former friends.
He has also lost prestige, and he will not
have half a dozen supporters in the leQisla-
ture. / doubt if his name will be men
toned in the caucus. Mantle will get a few
votes, but Sanders will have a majority on
the first ballot. He is gaming strength every
day. and / would not be surprised if his was
the oniy name mentioned. Of course the
democrats will elect their man, but in case
there should be a change in the complexion
of the legislature. Sanders will reap the
benefits"

awarding Charley Persell the entire purse

Burns OF Thursday night. the matter was
otherwise arranged yesterday. The deci-
sion, though admitted to be right, created
some unfavorabls comment among the pat
rons of sport, and Perseil was asked BY the
officers OF the Helena Athletic CLUB to allow
his adversary to get the short end of the
purse. At first Persell was not inclined to
do this, but later, when he thought ID over,
he came to the conclusion that $500 and the
credit of having shown his ability TO win
before he was fouled was enough glory for

Last Sunday was the one hundred
and thirtieth anniversary of the birth
OF Richard Allen, first bishop OF the
African Methodist Episcopal Church,
and in honor of the event all the min
listers OF the African Methodist Epis-
copal Church in Baltimore preached
on African Methodism, the Cradle of
Christian Liberty This was done at
the request of the preachers meeting
of the denomination.
In his sermon Rev. J. ii. Collett gave
sketch OF Bishop Aliens life.
Bishop Allen" he said, was born q
slave near Dover, Del, February II,
1850, and with his father, mother, sis
ter and two brothers was owned by
Mr.. Benjamin Chew.
The family was divided when Allen
was child, his parents being sold and
taken away. Soon after his separation,
Richard was converted, and. with his
brother, who remained on the place,
held religious meetings, which the
other slaves attended. These meetings
were SO frequent that Mr.. Chew's
neighbors thought Allen was setting
bad example to the other slaves Of tho
neighborhood and complained TO Mr..
Chew that his slaves were giving too
much time to religious worship. In
stead of ordering the meetings stopped
MIR. Chew commended Richard, and
said that he was convinced that rell-
gion made his slaves better and not
worse, and often boosted OF his slaves
honesty and industry. A sermon by
Freeborn Grrrison on the words, Thou
Art Weighed in the Balances and art
Found Wanting" convinced Mr.. Chew
thai slavery WAS wrong, so he after
ward allowed Richard Allen and his
brother to purchase their freedom for
$1,000.
This was done about 1880, after
which Richard Allen became an exhor-
ter, was soon after licensed to preach,
and In 1888 WAS ordained elder by Bis
hop Asbury, the first Methodist Epic
copal bishop. The colored people be-
came dissatisfied with their treatment
in the Methodist Episcopal Church. so
in 1893, under tho guidance of Allen.
they erected house of worship in
Philadelphia for themselves, which
Bishop Asbury dedicated. This was
the beginning of tho African Metho-
dist Episcopal Church. From the first
general conference. held in 1916. when
Allen was made bishop, the doors OF
our church have been open to all mon,
white and black, jew and Gentle, and
all are welcome TO Its saeraments.
The great principle on which the
church is founded is the fatherhood
OF God and the brotherhood of man;
out OF one blood hath God created all
nations to dwell upon the earth.
