the good woman hesitated before she
answered:
eff thee means to ask whether il
has been shown to me that / am chos-
en- of the Lord to be thy companion,
/ will admit that it has, but, Joseph.
thee is not an old man, nor am
young hand maiden.
Uncle Joseph stopped short in his
walk and, catching frightened look
upon the honest face beside him, he
gravely said:
cit was not upon that relation that
my mind ran. I thought rather OF
the increased duty in this day and
generation which belongs to the hus-
bandman and his cleaners, or in other
words, the responsibility of him upon
whom the benefits of this world have
been showered, and the loud call ever
sounding in my ear to extend help to
those who need; and it has been whis-
pered to me that thy material goods
have been slipped from thee, and
and I wished many times that might
make bold to offer my aid"
Can you marvel if a feeling of faint
ness crept over the gentle Sarah, or
that beseeching look set the seal up
on the awful stiffness that followed.
Uncle Joseph's voice sounded strange
in her ear. She feared she should
fall, but as the tones grew clearer
something else impressed her.
"Sarah, thee has a more receptive
spirit than my own. 1 have sometimes
longed to see Alright in regard to the
formation of closer bond with thee,
and 1 rejoice that through my ill-cho-
sen speech thee has been led to point
the way"
He took her trembling hand between
his own, and smiled down upon the
sweet but fearful face; then her lips
opened, the pain went forever out OF
her heart, and she whispered only:
"Dear Joseph. -
But her trial was not quite over.
We were already summoned to the
dining room when Uncle Joseph and
Sarah Sidney entered the door togeth-
er. L glanced about me, and was GER
tain that 1 saw more than one look of
satisfaction exchanged by the COM
pany present.
The moment of silent blessing was
past. My mother moved as if to be-
gin serving the soup, but she caught
Uncle Joseph's eye, and awaited his
slow words:
"Dear friends" he said with little
tremor in his voice, "rejoice with me,
for today has our beloved Sarah Sid
ney revealed to me the message that
the Lord has given into her Keeping"
He paused, and with flush bright
ening her soft checks Sarah asked
calmly:
Joseph, will thee kindly explain
thyself. "

sight into the secret knowledge of Sa-
rah Sidney's heart.
AS he ceased speaking her own
rhythmic tones filled the room in ten
der thanksgiving to the Lord for his
gift of companionship, and this has
evermore remained in my memory as
one of the most beautiful and fervent
supplications l have been privileged

Uncle Joseph's Wooing.

One of the prominent figures in our
meeting house for many years was
that of Uncle Joseph, for thus was he
snovn by the young and old who fire.
oueuted our religious gatherings.
He occupied the second seat in the
mems gallery, and it was with him
that the elder shook hands in sign
that Friends should separate, when it
seemed likely that the spirit would
move no others to utter gentle words
Of blessing or stern warning against
the tempter.
As children we regarded Uncle JOS
ph in the light of patriarch, al
though | now know that his years at
ne time of which | write had scarce
reached the limit of half century.
He was a comely man, straight and
tall, his smooth shaven face beaming
With good nature, and his soft blue
eye lighted with sympathy, but he was
not Intellectual. Slow of movement
and uncertain in expression, his hear
es we're often troubled to follow his
excellent thought, and it was no I'M
common thing for my parents to re-
Ter to his ministrations as being ''la-
bored. We had consciousness, bas-
Cd perhaps upon accidental knowl-
edge that he was uncommonly well to
Do, and also that there was consider
able feeling in the society that Sarah
Sidney with her clear insight and
acile speech, would be fit life COM
pnlon for the good man. But time
wore on, and there seemed no likeli-
hood Of realization of this desire.

Not to Surrender.

The State Department has de-
cided not to surrender General
Antonio Ezeta and his fellow-refu-
gees, now on board the United
States gunboat Bennington at Lii
bertad, TO the Government of Sal
vador. This decision was reached
after mature deliberation, and is
eminently humane and just. Tech
nically, the refusal to give up the
refugees was based upon the exem-
ption Of political fugitives from the
purview Of our extradition treaty
with Salvador; but practically the
fear that General Ezeta would be
given a short shrift by his enemies,
who now control the Government
Of the Central American Republic,
was a paramount consideration in
determining the action Of Secretary
Gresham. Whatever may be the
personal dement's of General An

situation.
THE PRESIDENT ARRAIGNED.
Mr.. Vest Democrat from Missouri
then proceeded to read the letter of
acceptance of President Cleveland In
1892, pronouncing IN favor of free
raw material. Yet now he denoun
ced free raw material as perfidy and
dishonor. In scathing tones he ar
Ranged the President. He had been
his friend, he said In thunderous
tones; he had defended him on the
floor of the Senate when his friends
could have been counted on the
fingers of one hand. When did the
President get the right to dictate to
Congress; TO denounce one branch of
Congress to the other?
Did he embody IN his single being
all the democracy, all the tariff re-
form sentiment, IN this country?
MIR. Cleveland was big man. But
the democratic party was greater
than any one man. IT had survived
jefferson, Madison, jackson; it
would survive Grover Cleveland.
Under what clause of the Consti-
tuition did Mr.. Cleveland get the
right after q bill has been sent to
full and free" conference between
the two houses to make an appeal to
his party friends to stand by his in
dividual views?
Mrs Madison had said in her
memoirs that the Capitol had been
placed at one end of the avenue and
the White House at the other to pre-
vent the President from exercising
an undue influence on the Legislative
branches of the government.
ATTEMPT TO GEORGE CONGRESS.
If the President could send here to
tell his friends to stand firm, he had
the right to send his cabinet minis
gress; he had a right to do as he had
done during the fight over the repeal
of the Sherman law, punish recalci-
trant members of his own party. 1t
was a mockery to talk OF a full and
free conference when one of the con-
ferees came to the committee room
with the orders of the President in
his pocket. He spoke with bitterness
of the Presidents denunciation of
| the Senate bill, which had been pass
| ed after four months of such toll and
responsibility as he never should as
sumo again. Yet, he said, those who
were instrumental IN harmonizing
the differences and bringing about
| its passage tariff reformers before
Mr.. Cleveland began his phenomenal
career-had been arraigned as trail
tors, who sought to dishonor their
party.
Personally the bill did not suit
him. He was a radical tariff reform
er, but if he could not get all he
would take what be could get.
Il give it as my opinion" he
declared, in conclusion, "that we will
pass this bill or no bill"
Several senators expressed them
selves IN equally strong language,
and at the close of the session the
declaration made by Mr.. Smith that
be would not vote for the bill if
changed from the Senate form, and
the similar declaration by Nr. Vest,
will, if adhered to, probably settle
the fate of tariff legislation of this
Congress. The Hou-e will certainly
not yield to the Senate if its leader
aud the President can prevent. If
Mr.. Smith lives up TO his threat it is

ANOTHER FLOOD.
Pueblo Again Suffers From Too Much
Water-No Lives Reported Lost,
But Much Damage Done.

Pueblo, Colo June 6.-Pueblo was Wis
tied by another food last night and this
morning the water was nearly as high as
last Thursday, but the damage is much
less because most people were prepared
for it.. notice came from Canon City
at o'clock yesterday afternoon that
food was coming. The greatest rise
reached here at $3.50 O'Clock this morning.
The Arkansas did not reach its former
height, but Fountain creek was much
higher. The water on the south side of
town lacked ten inches of Thursdays
high water mark, but lacked only five in
ches on the north side. Fountain creek
rose ten feet before II O'Clock. Some
families living near Fountain we're caught
in the flood, but no lives were lost. Both
railroads are tied up on the north end of
the Santa Fe between Pinon and Foun-
tain. At Eden the Rio Grande bridge
over Four Mile creek was carried away and
number OF other washouts' occurred. It
is possible that the Santa Fe and Mis-
souri, Pacific have suffered the least, but
it is not yet definitely known. It will be
several days before the lines are again
run as usual. No trains were running
this morning except on the Trinidad line Of
the Rio Grande. The wires are all down
this morning, but are being repaired as
fast as possible. The water in the city
began to recede at daylight and as the
levees have been cut below town the
water was nearly all off the streets before
10 O'Clock.

TWELVE HOURS SAVED BETWEEN COLORADO
AND NEW YORK CITY.
The Missouri Pacific railway on April
20, 1894, placed in effect new schedule
for it's "Fast Mall train between Denver,
Colorado Springs and Pueblo, and Kansas
City and st. Louis; leaving Denver at 300
p. M, Colorado Springs at 5:25 p. M,
and Pueblo at TOO p. M, and arriving at
Kansas City at 5:45 p. m, st. Louis at
G:55 a. M, and Chicago at 500 a. m., with
a direct connection over all trunk lines
for New York City, Boston, Philadelphia
and Washington, D. c., and all inter-

This will enabl passengers from Colo

KINDNESS AND A FORTUNE.
Engineer McAvOy. Supposed to BE in
New Mexico, Makes a Lucky Hit.

Philadelphia, June 6.-1nformation has
been received that J. A. McAvoy, a for
mer engineer on the Philadelphia & Read
ing railroad, has fallen heir to $4,000.
About three years ago a stranger, who
turned out to be Howard Wilbur, an &C
tor, whose company had stranded and
who was making his way home from
Chicago, told his sad tale to McAvoy.
The engineer took Wilbur into his loco
motive and carried him to the end of his
trip, and upon parting gave him 81, all
the money he had in his pocket.
This act of kindness the actor never
forgot. When he died lately in Chicago
it was found that he had bequeathed $1O,-
600 to McAvoy and all his personal prop
erty. Inquiries we're made at the Phila-
delphia q Reading Offices for McAvoy,
but it was stated that he had not been in
the employ of the company for nearly a
year. The last tidings of McAvoy are
that he left this city with a contractor
named White, their destination being New
Mexico.
