The Story of a Conversion.

A convert to the Catholic church re-
lates very beautiful incident which &C.
Cured recently in mountainous district
in Virginia. Rev. W. CASTOR Payne was
visiting his scattered flock and conduct
ing missions in the small towns. These
missions were attended principally by
Professionals. At the conclusion of the
sermon on one evening stalwart noun
taineer who had been soldier, came up
and spoke to the missionary as follows:
Zone day l went into the chapel of a
military post and saw there beautiful
image, almost life size, of Christ on the
cross. l had read about the crucifixion,
but l never felt it before. To this day
l remember that crucifix, and I don't
believe anybody who ever saw it could
forget it. Afterwards I was taken to
a hospital, and there nursed by the Sis
tiers of Charity, who didn't known any
thing about me except that l was far
from home and friends and was sick and
suffering They nursed me until 1 got
we'll, and then wrote to my people about
me, and did everything my own mother
would do for me. Father, believe any
church that can make women like them
is the true one, and am ready to join the
Catholic church now, If you think am
prepared for it,"
The next morning he and his wife,
together with another Protestant, re-
turned to the bosom OF their only true
Mother, in the midst of a little company
of friends who had assembled to witness
the administration of the right of hap
tism.

Death of M. p. Hayne.

Saturday, morning, Dec. 81, the friends
of Marcus P. Hayne, the popular attor-
ney and president of the Minneapolis
baseball Association, were shocked to
learn of his sudden death at the rooms
of the Minneapolis club.
Mr.. Hayne was native of Newark, N.
j., where he occupied the position of city
attorney previous to coming to this city,
in 1856. He began the practice of his
profession here as junior member of the
firm Of Penny, Jamison & Hayne, after
wards Penny, WEIGH & Hayne, and was
at the time of his death member of the
firm of Hayne, WEIGH & Hubachek, with
Offices in the Bank of Commerce build
ing, First avenue south and Fourth
street.
He was about AZ years of age, men,
Der of Monitor Lodge K. of p, and the
Elks, the latter of which societies took
charge of the funeral services
He had no relatives in this city and but
one brother, in Newark, N. j., both par
ents being dead.
Mr.. Hayne had been troubled with
rheumatism for some time past, but up
to two weeks before his death his health
had been remarkably good, and his sud-
den death was totally unexpected. The
immediate cause of his death, as assigned
by the attending physician, DR.. H. l..
Staples, was locomotor ataxia.
The funeral occurred on Tuesday from
the Church of the Redeemer and was
largely attended. The remains were in
tered in Lakewood.
