concluded from Page IL

be experienced lie must be sure his converts
converted. The great drawbacks to the
church today are church members who are un-
converted and modern evangelists who sprinkle
rose water too freely and talk too continuously
about the love OF God We need the preaching
Of the guilt and damning nature Of sin and the
certainty Of eternal hell for the impenitent to
arouse mems consciences.
II has never been the belief OF Methodsts
that merely holding a hand as high as ones
ears or signing card with ones name makes
convert. We never believed that these ate
religion. I've known Of so.called revivas where
hundreds Of people signed cards. but not one in
hundred OF whom month aftcrward could
be found to be attending church anywhere.
Another indispensable requisite TO the model
minister is that he must be holy man. That
does not mean a holy terror, nor perfect
critic. What you are, will determine what you
accomplish, more than what you attempt. The
ministry is most jealous profession. Give your.
self wholly to this work. This does not mean
lectures at S25 night nor writing for newspa.
pcrs and magazines.
The model minister is the man who makes
the pulpit the throne Of his power. ] would not
derogste from his pastoral work but In this day
OF educational advantages there is no excuse
for the intellectual weakling. It Is imperative
that you reach your highest possibilities. Read
great books, the strong books. Prepare your ser
mons with faithful care. Write great deal for
the first fifteen years, not hastily but carefully,
their leave your sermon at home, and go into
the pulpit and deliver it. Speak to be
heard and then win souls. Don't scream. Don't
humble, don't whisper.
The model minister is also a genuine Christ AN
believer. II is not at all probable that God will
ever call any of these young men to form new
creed for news one would be falsehood. The
minister, il he is a wise man, he will believe his
belief and doubt his doubts lie will preach his
beliefs and keep still about his doubts. The
model minister doesn't try to find few bits Of
chat in many bushels of wheat. He deals out
the wheat. Not all the philosophers nor all the
divines have brought forward one thing in con.
| ncction with the worlds good that has not the
germ at least in the words Of Jesus and writings
Of the apostles. Use your Bible as trustfuly as
the Master did and YOU needn't be afraid Of go.

SEVERAL LARAMIE LADIES
DISCUSS CANDIDATES.

There was 4 meeting of Laramie
ladies. including several members of
the Woman's Christian Temperance
Union, in the Presbyterian church this
afternoon to discuss candidates for the
city offices. There were also three
ministers present. The Rev. Rominger
was active in a movement to have GER
tain new candidates agreed upon who
should be voted for on election day
without the Formally of regular nomi-
nations. Inasmuch as there are two
saloon men on the democratic city tick
ct and the voting for other candidates
would have the effect to divide the op-
position to these two men without any
possibility of electing the persons who
might be selected as Independent can
didates by the ladies', they could not
see the ACCESSIBILITY of taking up Mr..
R%ominger's suggestion. A discussion
of candidates was then INDUCED in
with the result that the republican can
didates were found to be generally sat
isfactory to most of the ladies present.

sEWARD'S INDEPENDENCE.
Interesting Incidents In Dsting pushed
Mans Early Career. Y

~-ASs
When William H. Seward lett home
to go to Union college. like many An
other country boy he felt ashamed Of
his rough horlespun clothes. INC the
thought of them made him SO uneasy
thai he soon ran into debt with the
most fashionable tailor OF the place.
The senior yea in college began. but
the tailor had not been paid. Doctor
Seward would not settle what he re-
garded as an unnecessary account, and
his son could not pay the debt while
remaining a student on a slender al
lowancc. The incident became SO dis
agreeable that young Sc ward determln-
ed to make himself financially indepen-
dent. On the first day OF 1919 he start
ed secretly for Georgia. hoping to Sc
cure u position as teacher OF an acad-
envy. BY the time he vas within 80
or forty miles OF the end Of his journey
his purse was almost empty and he
was compelled to proceed afoot. His
strength and resources were all but
exhausted when he came upon a log
cabin in the woods, which was FORUM
ately occupied by a family that had re-

cant. h hen withdrew While his
case was under discussion. His posi-
ton was a serious one. With only

Seward, in later life. where was l to
go? What could l do" Fortune was
with him. He was soon informed that
his application had been accepted, and
that his salary as head of the academy
would be eight hundred dollars a year
Seward gladly accepted. Proud of his
appointment. he sent his father a Jews
paper containing an announcement Of
1t. DR.. Seward flew into a passion,
wrote to the trustees, telling them that
his son had absconded from college
without cause, bringing disgrace and
sorrow upon mis- too indulgent parents.
and thai all who harbored him would
be prosecuted to the full extent Of the
law. This frightened no one, and it
did not cause the very independent
principal elect to alter his plans; but
by the same mail came other letters.
What a fathers anger could not do
was quickly effected by the grief Of
a mother and sister. Young Seward
obtained permission to resign on con-
dition that he should stay until tho
arrival Of a suitable successor. So after
successfully opening the now academy
he started for home. 1t was not until
he had been for some time a practising
attorney that Seward was able to lay

Evidence of Violence.
The oldest boy" continues Mr.. Cal
houn, had a bruise on the left side of
his head close to the ear, also close

of violence. The youngest boys head
was nearly loose from the body and
four of his teeth were gone and a piece
of the jaw bone. After | removed the
body | burned up the shoes and coats.
Afterward | went back there and stir
red the ashes and found the teeth and
piece of bone. Two of the teeth are
not injured from the fire
Mr.. Calhoun's complaint is that the
Indian agent insists that the boys per-
ished in the storm and refuses to give
any assistance in investigating 1.-The
case; that he asked the coroner to con
duct IN Investigation but that he re-
fused on the ground that there was
nothing to investigate. The burden of
his letter is that he has not been treat
ed right in the matter and intimates
that the boys met their death by foul
means. He asks Judge Bramel to in
tervene and to instruct the coroner to
hold an inquest on the bodies.
James Grover Calhoun was 16 years
