No more was heard of Sophy's trouble

in the local papers, warning people against
giving his wife shelter or credit, and after
this insult had been commented on other

Observation-Disclosures and shipwrecks, and

the plain old kirk, with its model of a
fishing smack in front of the gallery, there
appeared suddenly that winter, more than
one brown face thought to be dead, mag
netiZing every eye and making even in the
Psalmody a solemn, joyful pause.
But late one evening the following sum-
mer, in the very height of the fishing sea-
son, this thing happened. Janet had been
to see her daughter, and had sat with her
until quite bed time And when she went
back to her own house there was a little
figure in black. crouching on the door step.
Two weak hands clasped her round the
knees and pitiful voice sobbed: Take me

GOV. BROWN DENIES.

Has Not Advised the Withdrawal of
Hurst.
Gov. Brown of Maryland last evening de-
MED the truth of the interview printed in
az Baltimore paper yesterday, and tel
egraphed to The Star, in which he was
represented as favoring Mr.. Hurst's with
drawal, and with reference to Mr.. Hurst
said that "he wished it understood most
emphatically that he had no such advice
to offer, and any remarks that he may
have made In connection with the demo-
cratic nomination were made Incidentally
and in a jocular way. with no intention of
having the same in print and with no idea
that they would be so used"
He regretted exceedingly that "his name
had been used in connection with any al
legged interview which was calculated to
mislead the public as to his position in the
campaign: that he had always supported
the democratic ticket, and would ce, tainly
do so in this contest"
''Mr. Hurst" said Gov. Brown, "as I'M
derstand it, was nominated without any So
Ecitation on his part and is in every way
qualified to fill the office, and is entitled to
the support of his party as the nominee of
the democratic state convention, and pre-
dict his election"
John E. Hurst, the democratic candidate
for governor, ives seen concerning the in
terview credited to Governor Brown. THE
publication came like q bombshell to me, -
said Mr.. Hurst, land at once sent to Gov
ernor Browns office to ask him If he was
correctly quoted. He sends me word he has
had no interview Under the circumstances

template withdrawing from the candidacy
for the governorship are absolutely false. "

derly as a mother keeps the memory of her
Gead babe. And love so vital must find
some expression, Andrew naturally began
to cast about for some way in which to
honor Sophy's memory.
1t came to him suddenly one Sabbath
morning, when he walked up to the kirk
yard. A slender shaft of white marble had
been placed at the head of Sophy's grave,
and Braelands stood looking at 1t. Andrew
walked forward, till only the little green
mound divided them. Their eyes met and
filled with tears; they clasped hands above
her grave, and then, without word, each
went his own way. But though Andrew
was pleased that Braeiands should thus
honor his wifes memory. he was resolved
to still more nobly keep her name in the
hearts of her people. He was making mon
ey rapidly, ard as his project would need
much money, he saved with conscientious
care for many year ere he could compass
hts desire.
This was to build mission ship for the
deep sea fishermen; and after twelve years
work and saving the ship was built-a
strong steam launch, able to buffet and
bear the North sea bilows. She was pro-
vided with all appliances for religious COM
fort and instruction, with medicine for the
sick, with surgical help for the wounded,
with all neci ssary protection against the
agonizing ."sea blisters" which torture the
fishers in the winter season. This vessel
of many comforts was called '"The Sophy
Traill," and she is still busy about her
work of mercy. Many other mission ships
row traverse the great fishing fleets of the
North sea, but none are so we'll beloved by
the fishermen as the Little Sophy." When
