II have stood many times on the rocky cliffs
below the preside and never could get away
from thought of the lovely girl who stood there
and watched the white sails OF the Juno fade
into the horizon while she built air castles and
peopled them with creatures who belonged to
the rank of her Russian lover.
Fsd moment ns only and the light and glory
Stood lonely as before
'Dona Conception had declared herself tired
OF the eternal sunshine and dead calm of her
| sheltered life. 1t is sad to remember that the
goodbye kiss her noble lover pressed upon
her sweet, grieved lips left shadow upon her
heart which never lifted Week after week,
month after month, year after year went BY
yet the fitful winds never filed the sails OF
Rezanofs returning ship. In the long bright
days Dona Conception used to stand on the
| heights and through her tears look off to the
west, where the sun made shining path down
which to glide into the harbor, but his ship
| never found it. As the years went BY ripen-
ing her beauty and rounding her nature into
perfect womanhood. others came to WOO and
laid their titles, riches and devoted love at her
feet, but with gentle frmness she sent each
one away.
Sickness sorrow, financial loss and death
| crowded thick upon her and hers, but as night
brings out the stars so was Dona Concepcion'v
! nature purified by suffering. Fifteen long
| weary years OF waiting passed and still the
west winds never kissed the sails that brought
| the robes of tho beata, though she did not take
the irrevocable vows. She entered heart and
soul into the spirit OF the sisterhood OF the faith
full and devoted her life TO the unfortunate and
erring Sister Concepcion's name was known
at last all over the Pacific coast for her good
works. Like q benediction she passed among
the people, bringing comfort to the afflicted
and balm Tor aching hearts.
''One day IN i842 there came to the mission
in San Francisco q traveller by the name of
Simpson. He had been everywhere, seen
everything. II was then half century bince

of the original founders of the Epworth
league. On May IA. 1889. twenty-sevea men
representing i've different 2cieties, met at
Cleveland, O., aud instituted the first Ep-
worth league. 1t was nam d after the village
OF Epworth in England, wher. John Wesley
was born. Its growth from that small be-
ginning has ocen marvellous. There were
now 5000 chapters comprising over 100000
members. These repres suted the young
blood and tho hope Of Methodlsm for the
years to come. There were Epworth
leagues in China. in India and in the isles of
the sea. One even existed III ,he Eternal
City within sight Of tho dome of s.. Peers.
Tho Epworth League in tho West" was
discussed by DR.. Payne Of Lincoln. HIS re-
marks were largely of humorous character
and were well ccived.

pie of Omaha. They were grieved beyond
expression at this insulting fling from
one of the editors of this indie
pendent Methodist paper. The colored
delegates were accustomed to that sort OF
thing in the south, but they did not look for
il from northern editor and membe" OF
the Methodist church.
There was great confusion and applause NJ
the close of the excited dlvine's speech. All
eyes were turned toward DIR. ParEhurst.
DIR. Pullman sprang to mis- feet. fle tried
10 smooth the difficulty over BY saying that
DIR. ParkhurSt certainly old not mean to offend
the coiored delegates. He moved that DR..
Parkhurst be given an opportunity to ex-
plain 1t was done.
DR.. Parkhurst was very much en- barrassed,
but he succeeded IN making an explanation
that won him little sympathy. Hc hrst
complimented the conference by saying tina:
it was splendid and emiuently fair and just
body of men. Then he explained that he had
always been staunch friend OF tho colored
race. He had written the little flash without
any intention of offense. He was profoundly
sorry that it had offended the co!ored breth-
ren and hoped that they would take 1t in
friendly spirit and not as an intended insult.
He had honest convictions that some OF the
colored delegates had not been 1udlcious III
their efforts TO get the floor upon fow occa-
slons. He meant to call their attention TO
this fact in a way that would be benefit to
them rather than to offend.

Back to the League Report.
Then the inference settled down to the
consideration of the Epworth league report
again. The conference deci1ed to allow tho
| board of control to elect the secretary of the
Epworth league, but to have the conference
elect the editor of the Epworth Herald. A
long wraDgle TOOK place over the

| should assume toward the Young Peoples

A Former MOntanian.

The Marquis de Mores, says the
New York Advertiser, is one Of the
French noblemen who, after marry
ing American heiresses, ever think
it worth while to spend any Of their
time in the United States. He is
the son-in-laW of rich Banker Won
Hoff'man,and is well known in New
York society. After his marriage
he went. west and assumed charge
Of some extensive cattle ranges in
Montana. The marquis was al
ready familiar with the west and
had spent much time in hunting
big game in the Rockies. He ac-
qulred the reputation among the
cowboys of being a calm, fearless
and determined man, and very
quick with his revolver withal, so
that very few ever cared to cross
him. A short time after the mar
quis had given up ranching and re-
turned to Paris he had an adventure
on the Rue Tilsitt, Lear his own
house, that he said beat any Of his
in the west. Tie
strangers who rob and murder late
pedestrians in the gay city are still
very numerous. One night the
malq lis left his club and saantercd
up the Champs Elysees enjoying
quiet midnight cigar He was ac-
costed near the Are de I'riomphe by
a young woman, who said she had
lost her way. The marquis fumbled
in his pocket for piece Of money
to give her for cab fare, when he
was suddenly seized from behind
by strong arms and rope was pass
ed over his head. De Mores real |
zed in flash that he was in the
hands Of Partisan thugs, as merci-
less as Apache Indians, and being
: powerful man disengaged his
right arm and drew his pistol. The
'ope was tight around his neck, hut
le managed to turn and confront
lis assailants, who, after a brief
struggle to get his pistol, took to
heir heels. De Mores fired after
hem, but with what effect was
never known. He never got over
lis surprise and disgust at the fact
hat, after he had brayed all the
hangers Of the rugged west, he was
o nearly garroted ii his civilized
native city.
