What the Census Shows.

The advance sheets of the last
census developed many surpris-
ing facts in reference to the de-
nominatiohal growth of this
State, says an exchange.
The Baptist church has mem
bership strength of 254,414 in
Kentucky, with church prop
erty valuation of -, $685. 1t
has 2,141 churches, and outnum-
bers any other religious body.
The Methodist church-North
and South-comes next with Il
membership of 100, ,531; churches
to the number Of / PA and prop
erty to the amount of $2,343, $50.
The Christian church numbers
upward of 100000 members and
$50 churches, but no schedule of
property is given. In point of
activity tins church is said to
rank first among all denomina-
tions.
There are about POO Presbyte-
rian churches in the State includ-
ing the old and new schools, and
275 congregations. Proportion
ally the Presbyterian denomina-
ton is the richest in ten States.

lucky, Louisville and Covington,

Labor and Capital.

If labor, organized or unor-
ganized; if workmen, union Oh
non-umon, can make a demand
upon capital to increase wages
and force that demand, it is un-
safe to invest capital in indus
trial workings; and the man who
has a sufficient sum of money to
live upon should certainly avoid
investing where the employment
of labor is necessary factor to
success.
1t is just as reasonable for the
employers of labor to demand
that laborers work longer hours
and for less pay as it is for la
Dor to demand shorter hours and
greater wages.
Labor is commodity in the
markets of the world. 1t is for
sale to the highest bidder. When
there is a demand for it, it is
worth more; when there is a
surplus of labor, it is worth less.
To-day there is a demand for
labor and it is worth more than
when there was surplus. The
increased price of labor can be
brought about through the mex
orable laws of supply and de-
mand. Men who need skilled
labor must be willing to pay for
it or go without it; but in order
to get that advance use reason,
argument, convincing proof that
is just, and avoid strikes, dyna-
mite, boycott's, blacklists and
lockouts. These are un-Ameri-
can forces, and sooner or later
they will break the backbone Of
any body of men who try to en-
force their wishes through such
demands.

THE LAST DEER HUNT
In Hopkins County Graphically Told by
an Old Hunter.
Written for THE BEE.

Written for THE BEE.
"One amongst the last if not
the last deer chase in Hopkins,
said an old hunter the other day,
Occurred in August, 1873, in
the Pond River bottoms near Il
spot familiarly known as Gal
breath's Island. The deer was
being continually harrassed by
local sports and naturally became
very skillful in eluding pursuers.
"Mr. Charles Ashby, man
who had had considerable cxpe-
rience hunting deer in the cane
brakes of Arkansas, organized a
party composed of himself, Press
Jimison, William Foley, Cyrus,
Charles and Alfred Cliff, and
started the following afternoon
for Pond River bottoms where
the deer could be located almost
any time.
"The day was cool and cloudy,
an ideal one for the occasion,
which made it seem to the en-
thusiastic party that they were
only a few minutes reaching
their destination, when three of
the party, including the leader,
took a stand and told the other
three to make a circle and drive
the deer down the way it usually
came when it was being chased.
OFF the drivers started as fast as
they could go, circling around
tie spot where the deer usually
made his abode. When they ar
rived at the desired place large
horn that could be heard for
miles around, was blown.
although they were two
miles above the place where the
deer was the familiar sound of
horn aroused his ire and he bound
ed through the brush where three
men stood ready to end his career,
when he was sighted by Mr.. Ash
by, who was not one of the kind
of hunters who endanger the
in the tops of the trees
more than they do the intended
game; but on the contrary was
fine shot and sent ball through
the fine bucks heart at a dis
tance of one hundred yards.
"Mr. Ashby was proud of his
feat and was said by his two
companions who witnessed the
affair, to have jumped higher
than the deer. This he never de-
MED and had his share of the
joke and the venison which was
in short order"

A FAMOUS OLD ROUSE.

The house of Walter Baker G. Co.,
whose manufactures of cocoa and
chocolate have become familiar in tho
| mouth as household words, was es-
tablished one hundred and twenty
one years ago (17S0) on the Nepon-
set River in the old town of Dorches-
te-, a suburb of Boston. From the
little wooden mill, ''by the rude
bridge that arched the flood" where
the enterprise was first started, there
has grown up the largest industrial
establishment of the kind in the
world. 1t might be said that, while
other manufacturers come and go,
Walter Baker & Co. go on forever.
What is the secret of their great
success? 1t is a very simple one.
They have won and held the conf
dence of the great and constantly in
creasing body of consumers by al
ways maintaining the highest stand
ard in the quality of their cocoa and
chocolate preparations, and selling
them at the lowest price for which
unadulteratcd articles of good quail
ity can be put upon the market. They
feel justified in denouncing in the
strongest terms the fraudulent meth
DDS by which inferior preparations
are palmed off on customers who ask
for and suppose they are getting the
genuine articles. The best grocers
refuse to handle such goods, not alone
for the reason that, in the long run,
1t doesn't pay to do it, but because
their sense of fair dealing will not
permit them to aid in the sale of
goods that defraud their customers
and injure honest manufacturers.
Every package of the goods made
by the Walter Baker Company bears
the well-known trademark ''La Belle
Chocolatiere," and their place of man
ufacture Dorchester, Mass" House
keepers are advised to examine their
purchases, and make sure that other
goods have not been substituted.

Recipes" will be mailed free to any

CLUNG TO HER CHARGE.
Heroic Fnithfu1ness OF n SchoO1mfs-
tress In Her Effort to Save
Baby's Life.

A recent book, entitled: "Recollec-
tions of Missionary in the Great
West" gives pathetic story of a little
schoolmistress who was faithful be-
yond the end.
She had been boarding round" and,
with dozen or more people, was
caught by tremendous cyclone. They
were in a house which stood on the
edge of a high bluff. The house was
wrecked, and every inmate but one was
killed. This survivor said that the
family was at supper when the storm
struck the house, and the schoolmis-
tress happened to sit next the baby,
growing in its high chair.
When they found the poor girl that
night, she was still alive, although she
died almost instantly. The wind had
torn off her clothes, even her two rings,
and left her but one shoe. Her hair
was whipped to rags. She had been
driven through several barbed-wire
fences, and every bone in her body was
broken.
In her arms, however, and clasped
tightly to her breast, was the dead body
of the little child. Womanlike, she had
seized the baby when she felt the
shock of the storm. and not even the
cyclone Itself had been able to tear
it from her arms.

wingroom betrayed the still distinct
tracks made by Louise and the fact
that the ivy had been disturbed
From the moment of these discov-
cries Holbin was miserable man. It
is a peculiar but a well-known idio-
syncrasy of the masculine nature that
whatever the man himself may bring
to the marriage altar he demands that
he shall meet there only immaculate
purity. The realization by Holbin
that fortune could be secured only by
linking himself for life to Frances,
who was thus proven to have COM
promised herself, was alone sufficient
to fill him with bitterness and hatred,
though it did not for a moment deter
him; but by a not unnatural operation
of the processes which were molding
his future he had found himself
strangely influenced from the hour
of their first meeting by this young
girl whose future was to be linked to
his. Fresh from school, her mind un-
formed, and with but vague ideas of
real life, Frances Brookin presented
that charming combination of knowl-
edge and ingenuousness which makes
the girl-woman forever irresistible to
men of experience. Himself accom-
plished and versatile, he set about the
pleasant task of winning her conf
dence, and he might perhaps have
succeeded but for over-assiduousness
and the wonderful intuition of the
feminine mind. The unwelcome re-
suits of his efforts were that within
two weeks he had fatally alarmed her
and as fatally involved himself. For
the first time in his life he was genu-
inely in love.
1t was at this time that DIR. Brod-
mar, lowering around his aged patient,
discovered the drift of affairs, and, be-
coming aware of the infamy planned
through the will, privately took con-
troll of Frances and revealed to her
the plot of which she was to be the
victim. From that moment Frances
turned from Holbin as from a GRIM
inal, and Holbin was piqued to court
her with a fiercer jealousy.
1t was to this heart, consumed by a
hopeless passion, that the revelation
made by Louise had winged its flight
like shaft of flame. Try as he might,
he could not in the face of corroborat-
ing facts convince himself that she
spoke altogether falsely or labored un-
der a complete hallucination. Yet,
looking with the eyes of memory into
the open, pallid face of Frances, he
could not, he would not, accept the
inevitable conclusion forced upon him
by Louise. Such was his frame of
mind on the day of the funeral, when
he remained at the Brookin residence,
perhaps his only opportunity to make
an examination of Frances apart
ments. Before the carriages had
reached the cemetery he turned the
latch and entered her deserted bed
room.

WHAT WE HEAR FROM ASSINI-
BOIA, WESTERN CANADA.

''Don't Think of Coming, But Come"
To the Editor:
The above is the emphatic man
ner in which a friend in York
ton writes to friend near St. Paul,
Minnesota, and it is pretty nearly
right, too, when the advantages
that Western Canada offer to those
seeking homes. The Assiniboia dis
trict is one of the best. The writer
from whose letter we quote goes on to
say:
John, if you miss this chance you
are foolish, for you can get out cheap
er when there are so many coming,
and I would not tell you to come if
thought you could not do well, and if
you don't come in the spring you will
have to go away back, for you do not
want to think that there is no one iv-
ing out here but us. / saw nicer build
ings out here than l ever saw before,
and if the country was no good what
would they want them for? John, if
you sold everything you have and
come out here you would be worth
more than ever you were before, and IL
you can BRING your team, you can get
anything you want on tick, ard when
they do that with strangers they are
not afraid they can't make enough to
pay for it. 1 saw as nice wheat as L
ever saw in my life and if they could
not grow grain what would the -four
mill be for, and it cost $4,000"
Now this was what Mr.. Thomas
Fitzpatrick, of Yorkton, Assiniboia,
Western Canada, wrote to n friend.
There will be opened up this summer
new districts in Saskatchewan and

of which can be had of any agent of

cumstances, to walk about the room"
He continued rapidly to give direc-
tions concerning the treatment of the
patient, and disregarded the woman $
efforts to pass him. Frances lowered
her voice and continued earnestly:
"You do not believe me, father, you
do not realize what you have done.
You do not know the man to whom
you have consigned me, nor the wom-
an to whom you gave your name
years ago. You knew nothing then!
You know nothing now! You took
her from Washington because she
fascinated you as she had fascinated
all those other men. You believed
in her, because she knew intimately
the great politicians. She was smart,
too smart for an honest, honorable
Virginia gentleman. Oh, my eyes
have been opened to-day; the son is
worthy of his mother. l do not know
who Louise is, but a friend has just
told me to say to you this: Ask
Raymond Holbin what he has done
with Louise; for he is the man who
betrayed her by mock marriage and
took her abroad"
Motionless, but with straining eyes,
the old man sat gazing at his daugh-
ter.
"Who-told you-that?" he gasped
She made no reply, a sudden anxiety
for him banishing every other emo
ton. With n mighty effort, and be-
fore she could prevent him, he arose
and staggered forward. The group
dissolved and hurried towards him.
Disregarding the physician and the
woman, he leaned forward. and
thrusting his face near to Holbin said
with frantic energy:
'Sir, where is my niece? Where is
Louise?" Holbin drew back. Speak,
you coward" Holbin did not reply,
but stood with eyes cast down, his
face as pale almost as that which
challenged him. The old man tore
at his throat and gasped in a mighty
struggle for breath. 'My will!-my
Wilt" he cried, moving feebly towards
his wife. She retreated, keeping just
beyond his hand. "Give-me-back-
the-ah-!" A look of unutterab bic
horror rose to his face; he wavered,
plunged forward, and would have
fallen, but Brodnar took him in hia
