course by Mr.. Garrett.
The annual memorial service of the An
Client Order 81 United Workmen was held
In st. Marks church yesterday afternoon
at $3.50 o'clock. the memorial sermon being
delivered by the rector Of that parish,
Rev. David Claiborne Garrett. who is
himself a member of the order. The beau
tiful custom OF commemorating in a sa-
cred service the names OF those Workmen,
who have died during the year was pen
haps never more impressively observed
There was large attendance of members
Of the A. o. u. w, who marched to and
from the church in body.
With the thoroughness for which the
St Marks rector and people are noted,
an admirable church programme had been
arranged, and IL is no fulsome fattery to
say that every part of 1t was well carried
out. The names of the men in whose spe-
cial honor the service yesterday was held,
together with the names of the lodges OF
which they were members, are as follows:
], III. Culley, G. a. Reich, Columbia
Lodge, No. Q
James Cicero. Houghton Lodge. No. 2S
Neils D'Jorup. D. c. Jones. Alki Lodge,
No. Z.
f. ]. Van Buren,. Keyston Lodge, No. g.
ID. b. jackson, Juan de Fuca Lodge,
No. 49,
The programme OF the exercises was as
professional. "Hark. Hark, My Soul"
the Lords Prayer; responsive reading;
Scripture lesson; Stanfords "ATagnifcat"
In fat; the Apostles Greed: responsive
Nersicles; Collects; anthem. What Are
These?" prayer; hymn. Rock Of Ages; :"
sermon; hymn, Nearer. My God, 10 Thee"
prayer and benediction: occasional hymn,
"Abide With Me-"
Mr.. Garrett appropriately chose as his
text Jobs query az 10 immortal existence
beyond the grave. 'Tf man die, shall he
live AGAIN." and in his usual forfble STYLE
gave presentation of the teaching OF the
church concerning Gods revelation IN an
swer to the question. The music furnished
fy the choir OF st. Marks was up TO the
high standard hitherto maintained, and
the entire service was such as to make the
worshipers feel that the men who had fall
len In the ranks during the year had had
due honor paid them.
The members OF the various A. o. u. w
lodges presented q fine appearance on the
street and attracted favorable comment
on their march TO and from the church.
The programmes for the service were
beautifully printed, containing in full the
words OF the hymns and the responsive
readings. and many OF them will doubtless
re kept as souvenirs OF the service yester-
day afternoon.

A Night With the Bachelors.

A round dozen OF jolly bachelors were
gathered together in the grill room OF the
Butler Saturday night, with the ostensi-
bic purpose of bidding farewell to Emil
de Neuf. the architect, who leaves this
week for Guatemala Good fellowship
reigned throughout the evening and regret
for the departure OF Mr.. de Neuf was lost
in the consumption OF numerous stems.
The mellow notes OF n either. which was
manipulated by the guest of the evening.
Beloved on the fragrant clouds of Ha-
vana, softened the boisterous merriment
Of the gay party and added a delightful
tone to the occasion. The festivities We're
prolonged far into the "wee sma' hours"
and only when the metropolitan chanti-
cleer had announced the crimson flush of
dawn did the party think OF breaking up.
Mr.. dc Neuf. in his Central American
home, will have good cause to remember
with pleasure his farewell night with the
Seattle Bachelors Club.

Ten days before reaching the noun

men-"hunters, as they called them
selves They were clad in the typical
picturesque dress of the dandies of their
class, and one of them, apparently the
elder, was strikingly handsome young
man of four and twenty. He was of
medium height, finely built, and an ad-
mirable horseman. He introduced him
self as Henry Kyle and his burly COM
panion as Font Robb.
These young men said they were go
ing into northern Idaho to prospect dur
ing the coming fall and winter, and they
asked to be permitted to accompany DIR.

time having in mind Washington terri

CHAPTER LII

Henry Kyle's splendid horse flew over
the mountain trail that dark night with
all the ease and certainty of great
bird cleaving the air. After three hours
Of ceaseless galloping the young man
saw, far to the front and far down
from the hill along which his horse
coursed, campfire, and the rTiddy light
revealed group Of men, their rifles
flashing ON the trees like queer igneous
fruit, while In the background the out
line Of group of grazing horses could
be made out. Suddenly figure in hunt
er's dress appeared on the trail, and
Henry Kyle, refining in his horse with
his left hand while his right dropped
back to the stock of his pistol, called
out
'Is that you, BoutonT"
"Yes We're waiting for you, re-
piled the tall figure in gruff voice.
Henry KYLE dismounted, and as the
two drew nearer to the fire the light
Rlowed ON the fierce brown face of Bou-
ton, a lawless half breed but too well
known to the settlers in these noun
tains
1.-THE boys are in a hurry" continued
the half breed.
whats up?'
"They are afraid the immigrant
train may escape us, and that mustn't
be, for it is the richest outfit that has
been seen i'll these hills for many day. "
"Are the Blisses in camp?"
Eyes, Hank. :"
II can't see why two Virginia law
yers should come out to this country
and join gang that is notoriously law
less" said Henry Kyle meditatively.
"They keep their own secrets, Hank, "
chuckled Bouton.
$50 they do, but can't see why they
should be so eager to get this DR.. Blanch-
ard and his son out Of the way.
''In order that they may marry the
daughters, l suppose. But are the girls
30 beautiful?''
Beautiful as pictures, Bouton-too
beautiful to be thought Of i'll connection
with such brace Of ugly ours us these
two brothers" said Henry Kyle the
words coming as if from between his
set teeth.
BY this time the two men had reach
ed the campfire, and score OF men,
bearded and bronzed, greeted Henry
Kyle with cheer that indicated his
popularity, if, indeed, it did not imply
his leadership. Henry Kyle unsaddled
and stalxed his horse-the first care OF
true hunter-and thCu went to the fire,
ON which meat was broiling and savory
messes steaming in iron pots,
"You met up with them. Mr. Font
Robb says you met up with them, " said
a man, laying his hand on Henry's arm.
"Oh, you-Mr. Tom Bliss! How are
you? Yes, met them. l told you
would if they were on the plains.
$50 you did, SO you did, and be-
lieved you implicitly" And as Tom
Bliss spoke he drew Henry Kyle out OF
hearing Of the others.
Just here it may be necessary TO ex-
plain the appearance of Jonas Bliss two
sons in these wilds. DIR. Blanchard had
not been gone from his old home a week
when the collateral heirs-the kinsmen
of old John Weldon, the patriarch-be-
gan to make inquiries about the i'm.
mepse estate that bad been unclaimed
