Make 1t Plain.

People do not always take pain
enough when instructing children in
religious matters to see that they un-
derstand what is taught; consequently
child will often get entirely mistak-
en- ideas in regard to important things,
and very queer ones, too, sometimes,
as the following true incidents will
show.
A little girl had been taught that
when good people died their bodies
were buried in the ground, but their
souls were taken to heaven and not
knowing that ones soul is ones self,
imagined that the souls in heaven
were little round things about the size
of watch crystal, and the color of
white porcelain button, ranged in rows
on shelves like the plates in her moth
er's pantry.
A Sunday school teacher in talking
to her class of little girls used the word
dogma, and probably all that she said
showed equal wisdom, for one child,
struck by the word as pretty sound
ing one and one she had never heard
before, and getting no idea of its mean
ing from the connection in which it
was used, thought it must mean lit
tie dog.
Henry, about twelve years old, was
converted and was leading consistent
Christian life, when one night his
father heard him sobbing in bed, and
went to him to see what was the trou-
BILE. He found him in great distress,
fearing that he was not a Christian
and the reason he gave was that he
was quite sure he should get very tired
of doing nothing but sing through all
eternity and he thought, since he felt
in that way, it must be that he was
not a Christian.
A little time spent in the endeavor to
find out what ideas the children have
and in making things clear to them,
will not be lost.
Make it plain.

CHEYENNE, Wyo., April l4.-The Indus
trial Army arrived here late yesterday
afternoon, with banners flying and men
cheering, The train was not permitted to
stop within the city limits, but engines
were changed at Collette, Eve miles west
Of the city, and tho train of twenty-five
cars was afterwards run through to East
Cheyenne, where but n brief stop was
made to take on a supply of provisions,
including 1900 loayes of bread and five
beeves, furnished by the city, enough to
feed the men until North Platte, Neb., is
reached. The railroad officials decided to
push the army right through Nebraska
on fast freight schedule, reaching Omaha
this afternoon. General Kelly and his
men expected to go via Denver, but the
Union Pacific refused TO run the train
south. General Kelly said;
81 had hoped to call on Governor Waite
and thank him personally for his express
sion of sympathy. But it is impossible.
We must hurry on to Washington as rap
idly as possible while we have the oppor-
tunity."

speech

plish its purpose We are respectable men.
We found six tramps among us on reach
ing Green River, but they were left with
the local authorities. Every man of us
has taken personal obligation not to
violate any law of the land, and we are
going direct to Washington to petition
congress for deserved relief. California
has kept these men and 10000 more for
over two years, and we believe it is now
thu governments duty to give us en-
ployment. We ask relief for only year
or so, when we shall be able to do for
ourselves. We do not propose to destroy
property or menace congressman who will
not listen to us.
This industrial movement is separate
from Coxey's army. He has nothing to do
with us. On reaching W ashington we will
call upon Congressman Pence of Colo
RADIO, and Delegate Rawlins, of Utah, to
enlist them In our behalf. The best OF
discipline prevails, and the men are sworn
to obey their officers"

CHAPTER XIV.

Ike Baxter's wife made her way to
the Percy mansion to find everything in
confusion. Every neighbor had fled,
and such friends as remained were ex-
aggerating the results of Jackson de-
feat and retreat. Reports were brought
in by this one and that ono that Jack
son himself intended to burn the town
and leave only desolatiou behind him
as he fell back. As consequence,
though brave enough during the early
part Of the day, night came to find Ma
rian and her mother full Of alarm. This
was added to by Mrs Baxter's appear

information Of the servants who had
fed in terror, and in this way she
gained admission to the presence of the

several of the guards had been killed
or captured at Kernstown, but had no
reliable information. Mrs. Baxter gave
the number and their names. The last
name on her list was that Of Royal Ken

it was believed by all the surviving
guards that kenton was to be held re-
sponsiblo.
