Brother McGraw uttered fervent prayer
for the President of the United States and
for the victory of the cause of righteousness
mont announced:
Brethren and sisters, this Holy Book
contains the law of our lives in every possible
emergency. 1t has texts to fit every oc-
casion that can arise in our lives. / shall
choose for my subject to-day one which seems
to have been particularly written for this
day. 1t is the 18th and 18th verses of the
eighth Chapter of Isaiah, and reads:
For the Lord spake thus to me with strong
hand, and instructed me that should not walk
in the way OF 9TH this people, saying. ,
them to ,o'son this people shall say q CONFED-
ERACf; neither fear pc their fear nor be afraid"
Upon this he proceeded to build up fiery
denunciation of all those who were wickedly
disturbing the peace of the land to rear up
Coniederacy.
The amazed Confederate Colonel waved
his handkerchief to his troopers and they
sprang into the saddle But the line under
Pollock grew SO solid and strong that Rhea
did not dare give the order to advance He
sat on his horse with scowling face, waiting
for the torrent of words that fell from the
Elders lips to break little and give him an
opportunity to be heard Then he said:
Elder StOrnmont, | am witness that
you have been guilty of fragrant sedition and
treason. You have done this against fair
warning beforehand, and the consequences
will be on your own head. 1 shall 90 now,

SYNOPSIS OF PREVIOUS CHAPTERS.
The scene of this story of the war period is
laid in the Southern Allegany Mountains. The
hero, Henry Clay Pollock, is sturdy young
mountaineer; the heroine, Miriam lnrule.

descendants of the honest, hardy men who
penetrated into the mountains and amid plo-
neer hardships and dangers, located rude but
comfortable homesteads. Mrs. lnrule is an
invalid. Inrule and his family are intensely
loyal and religious. Secession has already
startled the country, and Fort Sumter has
fallen.
The narrative opens with young Miriam
engaged in spinning on the veranda of her
fathers house. She is interrupted by the
arrival of Elder Stornmont, Methodist circuit
rider. Later Miriam's sweetheart. Pollock.
arrives. The two expect TO be married IN o
few months.
Col. Rhea, a bitter Secessionst and slave
owner, also comes, with his overseer, Sam
Griggs. man of low instincts and rufiianly
appearance. A political discussion fvifews be-
tween Inrule, Stornment and Pollock on the
one side, and Rbea on the other Rhea goes of
enraged at the loyal expressions of the others,
and vows to teach them their duty.
After his departure, Elder Stornmont. in
solemn way, predicts period OF dread civil
strife. When evening comes, band OF Seces-
sonists, of the class known as Sang diseers, led
by Jim Hoskins, dash by the house and fire
a shower Of bullets over it, the while hooting
and yelling. Pollock dashes out and unhorses
two of the men and the rest run away.
That night as the Inrules sit around the
great fireplace. Sally Hoskins appears with her
babe in her arms, aud says she has left her
husband, Jim, because of his continual ILL
treatment, and begs to be allowed to stay and
work out her living with tie Inrules; other

The road has been disturbed by high wa ter in the Gila this year, the water being six feet higher than the record of 1891. The company controls a twenty inch guage railway which car ries supplies for the Detroit com pany to Longfellow, four miles and to the Metcalf, six miles, a mine of the A. c. M. Co.,, limited, and brings out ores to the company's shelter at Clifton. Passengers ride free in the iron box cars, which have capacity of three tons. Five engines are em- ployed, these of the thirty ton class, Pittsburg make. The twenty inch gauge railway cost $75,000, equipped. Inclines rum up @ mountain side g., 200 feet at Longfellow. Persons made the trip without hindrance until a man was instantly killed, the cars on which he rode breaking loose, and pitched one hundred feet after quit ting the track. A Mexican woman met like fate, being so horribly mangled that fragments of her body were gathered up on a shovel. These accidents led the company to forbid riding or walking on the incline.
 The Frisco river, which passes through Clifton, was booming the past few days, doing no particular dam age. Chase creek, which is coursed by the ore cars, was on the rampage and the wagon road torn up as re- suit. The creek, when the banks are full, carries off houses, mostly of adobe, lying in it's path. Took a trip horseback up the creek Monday with Road Overseer Hill, crossing the stream often before climbing the mountain to canyon paralleling On the south. It was a rocky road to Morenci, seven miles, one I am not apt to forget.
 Morenci is the camp where are To- cated the hoists and shelter of the Detroit Copper company. In June fire swept the business portion, the company store and buildings escap- ing the path of the fire Since the fire the saloons and stores kept by outsiders have been located down the canyon half a mile. The Arizona Copper Mining company, limited, secures ore on claims lying next to ihS DSlIO CJlppduy 5 cldtluS, lU0Se being hauled out from Metcalf as above noted. At Morecci, aside from the company store, are the ware houses connected therewith, library, hospital, physicians, company lodg- ing and boarding house. On the hill is Mexican restaurant. The office, assayer's quarters, postoffice and homes of the compa.y's officers and clerks are located conveniently, and on high ground. The population of Morenci is chiefly Mexican, possibly to the number of 1000. There are not 15O Americans resident of the town and vicinity. The Mexicans occupy cheap shacks, made principally of cheap lumber, adobe and stone As to the mining interests. mention will be made under the usual head in a later letter, also of the Arizona Cop per Mining company and others on Chase creek and Frisco river Addi- tional information and personal notes will form the subject of the next general communication.

VALUE OF FRUITS.

While the nutritive value of fresh fruits, excepting always nuts, is not so very great, they are nevertheless most valuable for their flavor, their stimulus to the appetite and the changes they permit in the bill of fare.
 Although dried fruits are much more nutritious than fresh, it would seem a perverted taste that would cIamor for figs, prunes or raisins, when over the garden wall are hang ing succulent pears, rosy apples or mellow peaches
 In gathering fruits remember that all fruits are best when allowed to ripen on the tree or vine, excepting pears. Nearly all varieties of this fruit may be gathered while still green and put in dry, cool place to mellow All fruit should be examined often, as decay is rapidly communicated. Fresh fruits differ in their effect on the digestive organs, depending on their several properties. As these are modified by cooking, unless fruit is neither under ripe nor over ripe it is more wholesome cooked.
 Some fruits require very little sug- ar in cooking, while others are very | poor unless a great deal of sugar is used. Nearly all fruits are better in color, flavor and texture if the sugar is added when they are first put on to cook, but dried fruits, such as ap-
 ples, peaches, prunes and apricots,
 will require very little sugar, if | cooked long enough.
 In the French and German methods of preserving that gives us the beau l tifully clear, transparent results, a very rich syrup is made and poured I over the fruit. This is allowed to stand several hours. It is then pour | cd off, boiled again and poured off, | this process being repeated in some | ffuits for several days. In this way they simply absorb the heat and are cooked.
