OF THE EX-CONvICT.
Suddenly he paused before a grea
building into which crowds were pour
ing. He joined the throng and drifteC
in. There were lights and music. Some
body-a man with clear baritone voic,
was singing something. To the ears O
the Ishmaelite stole these words:
I've found a friend in Jesus:
He's everything to me;
He's the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.
The Lily of the Valley.
In him alone see
All need to cleanse and make me fully whole
Then suddenly the great audience rose
TO its feet and responded:
He's the Lily of the Valley,
The Bright and Morning Star;
He's the falrest of ten thousand TO my soul
Johnson looked stupidity about. He
saw faces lined with sin and suffering
the faces of thieves and outcasts. But
everybody was singing. He looked al
the platform. 1t was filed with men
and women dressed in curious fashion.
in dark blue costumes, with big scarle,
letters on their breasts. During John
sons prison life the Salvation Army had
sprung into existence.
He all my griefs has taken,
And all my sorrows borne;
In temptation he's my strong and mighty
rang out the voice like a clarion call.
And once more the poor, sodden way.
farers to whom he sang answered:
He's the .ilv of the VaIlev
The Bright and Morning Star:
He's the fairest of ten thousand TO my soul.
Something rolled down the cheek of
the ex-convict.
He put up his hand impatiently to
brush it away.
And then, half stumbling, he hurried
out into the night.
But as he fed through the fast fall
ing snowfakes he heard again the re-
frain well up like battlecry:
He's the Lily of the Valley.
Next day as he aimlessly walked
about he came face to face with man
he had known in his old life. The man
started as if he had seen a ghost, and
then shamefacedly and hesitatingly ex-
tended his hand.
"Howdy do, Johnson" he said tim
idly.
"Oh, I'm well enough" said johnson
with short, harsh laugh. I'm trying
to get something to do. Perhaps you
could help me-"
'I-oh, novel;, you see, Just now
everybody's taken up with Christmas"

Christmas Hfummers.

Among other quaint customs still ex
tant are those of the ''mummers" anG
mummings at Christmas, all common
in Oxfordshire, England. Some wear
masks, some black their faces and Others
dress Enthusiastically. They go about sing
ing:
A merry Christmas and happy New Year.
Your pockets full of money and your cellars
full o.; beer.
But TINS IS the convivial side. At this
time the following apparently senseless
lines are sung by the yeoman of Somer-
setshire:
Here comes |, liddie man Jan,
With my zword in my han,
If you don't all do
As you be told by /.
I'll zend you ell to York
Nor TO make apple pie.

"Oh, that's all rightr said the warden
cheerily. Il try to do what's right
that's all. Just you do that in the
future. Henry, and l shall never see you
here again. Good luck to you."
The great doors changed behind Henry
johnson as he stepped out of the prison,
where he had served six years, four
months and twenty-five days-not the
full sentence he had received, for the
benefit of the allowance for good be-
havior had been lis. But six years is a
long time, long enough to change a man

With new suit of clothes, ticket to
New York and twenty-three dollars
johnson walked away, once more a free
man.
He had looked forward to this day for
years. He had dreamed of it on his
hard bed in his lonely cell-the day on
which he would be liberated, on which
his revenge would begin.

A DAY OF SLUMPS.
Grain and Provisions Show Great Weak.
ness-Nsws All Bearish

oEou ANU TroV1sions snow Oreat weak
ness-News All Bearish.
CHICAGO. July T-Weakness ruled in all
the pits on the Board of Trade to day, and
everything closed lower. This tone was ac-
companied by light trading in everything
except corn, which was quite active. The
weather was a factor everywhere, in the
provision crowd as well as among the deal
crs in cereals. The weakness was pro-
nounced and general during the last Is min
utes OF the session and everything traded in
closed at or near the lowest prices of the day.
Nearly all of the news was bearish, and
the combined result was a loss OF E@lc in
the value of wheat. Cables were weak and
generally lower, with domestic markets also
tending downward. The very favorable
crop reports published this morning, with
the news of cooler weather in the North
west and liberal rains in that quarter, also
helped to cause weakness. Another reason
for depression WAS found in the sharp
slump which took place in corn and which
extended to the other pits. September
wheat opened Nc lower at 7sc, frmed up to
761sc on local buying, then gradually sagged
away to 771ac, held for some time around
T14G7Tssc, touched TIC momentariIy dur
ing the last hour, then near the close weak
ened to and closed steady at Tsxc.
Corn was decidedly weak and lower and ft
did noS take September long to sell on II<c
from last nights close. The chief cause or
the weakness was the reports in the MORN

TRUSTS STILL LEAD
In Point of Strength, Followed by
the Changers and Coalers.
SHORTS INCLINED TO COVER.
Reports of Another Advance in Prices Help
the Coal Roads.
RAILROAD BONDS TENDING UPWARD

NEW YORK, July 27.-The stock market
was again dominated by the industrial
stocks, which were further advanced, while
prices in the railroad list were stagnant as
usual until we'll into the afternoon, when
the reports denying the late rumor and
stories of damage by heat to the corn crop
resulted in inducing some covering of shorts
in the grangers and consequently higher
prices. The latest reports obtainable to-
day went to show that the reports of damage
to the corn crop from the hot weather were,
to say the least, mgh exaggerated, and
the shorts were inclined to cover in the
erangers, which. with the stimulus of the bull
manipulation of the industrials, served to
make the market not only more active, but
gave it decidedly strong tone, though the
fluctuations in railroad shares were as usual
confined to a very limited range The ad-
vance in Cotton Oil and Sugar continued,
and the latter rose something over per
cent on q light business The stimulus
spread to the railroad list before the end of
the day, and while the grangers were the
strongest features in the early dealings, the
Coalers were advanced sharply in the final
trading under the impression that the prices
for their products would be again advanced
at the meeting of sales agents on Thursday
Railroad bonds still show the influence of
new buving and firmer temper prevailed
to-day, with some light increase in the
volume of business in the list. There were
no specially active issues other than the
Northern Pacific Sc, which, with the stock,
are helped BY the funding ood Of the floating
Government bonds were dull and firm.
Close of the list:
