CHAPTER VI.
A MEMORABLE NIGHT.

]. The Salvation Army hall was an old storage room which had once been used for miners supplies. It seated about 400 people. There was very little fur niture in 1t except the wooden chairs and two box stoves, one at either end. A flag was draped across one corner. There was platform about two feet above the floor where the army was taking up it's position for the meeting as Stuart entered.
 Although many of the miners had gone over to De Mott that day in antici- patton of the excitement when the new men came in, there was still a large number of men in Champion. The hall was crowded. Not a place was left for standing room except at the rear near the door and the aisle which by com mon practice was left open for converts to march down and kneel at the altar The man with the big drum was sta tioned out at the end of the platform and had difficulty to find room enough to swing his arm as hard as he wanted to, and once during the evening as he Hung his drumstick back to bang his Instrument ha11e1uiah chorus he
 
 who was leaning eagerly forward a good, smart blow on the nose. This in ciient created little confusion, but it was soon quieted.
 Stuart was intensely interested in the meeting as it progressed. He was fa- mil1s- with the outdoor meetings, and he had seen the army in it's great gath erings in London, but he was in a con- diti0n himself at this particular time, in his own personal history and expe- rience, to feel peculiar and special in- terest in this particular meeting.
 He was sitting about six rows from the front and next to the aisle, where he could see everything distinctly. The audience was mostly men, though sev- era1 of the miners wives and some of the younger women were scattered about in the crowd. The service start ed with a vigorous solo and chorus. The major, large, fine faced English man, with voice that shook the win dows, started in with the song,
 was a deep dyed sinner,
 Just deep could be,
 and the army came in with a rattling chorus to the Bowery tune of Swim Out O'Gradyw The verse and chorus ran like this:

But the pathos, the entreaty, the warning, how did Rhena sing all that except by the help of the divine power who takes and uses poor, weak human powers to his glory wiH in the conservation of his gifts She sang while the mob listened: It's true there's beautiful city,
 That its streets paved d~with gold. No earthly tongue describe it;
 Its glories never be told, But know, I'know,
 knoow,I shall be there.
 Your loved ones dwell n that city, Whom yeo placed beneath the sod, When your heart felt nigh to breaking
 And you promised you'd serve your God Will you, will you,
 Say will you meet me thereP
 There none but the pure and the holy
 Can ever enter in;
 You have hePe of its glory
 If still you're the servant of sin
 Bless Cod, blssG God
 Bless Ged, you may be there!

 And to Jesus I'll be true.
 Pm fighting meath the co1ors .
 The yellow, red and blue.
 Get out, old devil, get out!
 There were five verses, the last one concluding the second or final chorus as follows:
 A word about the collection,
 For we want good one sure;
 The devil often tells
 That to give am too poor,
 Which makes me go down deeper
 When the timbrel comes my way,
 And my action brings blessing sure
 And helps me when say:

 Pm soldier in the army, SS1.
 And to Jesus I'll be true. .t.
 Pm fighting meath the colors
 The yellow, red and blue.
 Get out, old devil, get out! It would be impossible to describe the effect of this song on the audience. The Cornish people were great lovers of music. Before the stalwart soloist had finished two verses of the song nearly every foot in the audience, and there was not a light foot in it, was beating time on the hard board floor, and at the conclusion of the third verse nearly every person in the hall was roaring out the words of the chorus with the army, although they had not been invited to sing on this particular selection.
 The army did not seem in the least disturbed, however. It would take more than slight incident like that to disturb the Salvation Army of Champion. At the conclusion of seng everybody on the platform kneeIed down.
 Rhena Dwight was in the center of the little group. The audience was as quiet now as it had been noisy be- fore. There was a smoky kerosene lamp just over her head, and as she kneeled there in the midst of those rough surroundings Stuart could not crowd back the thought of what this girl had been and what she was now. The refinement of her face was remark abIe.@ It had seen great, trouble, but Withal 1t was a face that had seen a great victory. She prayed very much as she, had the first time Stuart heard her. The army broke in frequently with "Amenw and -"HalTeluiahv' but not noisily or in way really to inter- rupt Stuart glanced through the crowd and saw here and there tears running over rough cheeks of men and women. Then he bowed his own head, and when the prayer was finish ed and he lifted up his face again something like tears wet his own eye Ias11es.
 Immediately after Rhena's prayer hak \ dozen short psay.srs were OfW.

A New Depot,

The L. p. is preparing to erect
semaphore at the depot. The U. p.
can build anything for their own CON
venience but they seem not to care a
continental for the convenience of the
travelling public at Sterling and are
perfectly content to let them use a
barn for Il waiting room. Sterling
needs a depot very badly and the U. T.
officials are cognizant of the fact.
The above kick against the poll
cy of the Union Pacific railroad com
pany was registered by Editor Price
in a recent issue of the Democrat.
The doughty editor may have just
cause for his kick against the policy of
the railroad company in maintaining
the ramshackle depot at Sterling-the
company may have curtailed the edit
or's transportation privileges-but he
will have difficulty in convincing the
company that the existing depot facil-
tiles are not entirely adequate for the
business done by the railroad at Ster-
ling. 1t is a well known fact that the
Union Pacific company improves its
passenger and freight facilities wher-
ever needed and whenever the bdsi-
ness of the station justiiies it. That
no Improvement has been made, or is
likely to be made. in the depot at
Sterling is no doubt because the com
pany considers that the depot there is
sufficient for the present requirements.
Now in the "alleged town of Jules
burg"-as Editor Price facetiously
speaks of the best town in eastern Col
orad0-it is different. The railroad
company has just completed new de-
pot In Julesburg-a depot larger and
finer than any Sterling may ever hope
to have. The company has also made
other and permanent improvements
in It's facilities here-all of which goes
to prove that the officials of the COM
pany realize that Julesburg is much
better town than Sterling or any 9TH
err cross roads town in the South Platte
valley. Again we remark to our Ster-
ling neighbors: you'll have to hur-
ry," or the railroad company may
make your town flag station.

New Haven, Conn.,, Nov. 81. Sympa-
thetic action has been taken here by
swltchmen, freight handlers and yard
brakemcn employed in the yards of the
New York, New Haven and Hartford
Railroad company in accordance with
an order issued from the headquarters
IN New York of the strikers.
Switching conductors and switching
brakemen employed in the local yards
Of the company to the number of about
115 went out. and for Il time com
plete tieup Of the freight department
In this vicinity seemed imminent. The
order did not include the freight en-
gineers or lilemen, and so far they are
not concerned in the movement 1t is
announced that the passenger SEIZED.
ule of trains will not be affected by the
strike.
The railroad company has pressed
into service to meet the congestion of
freight caused by the situation at the
New York end of the line two sound
steamers which have been laid up here
out Of commission. They are the City
Of Lawrence and the G. III. Northam.
First Vice President w. +. Merrill In
an Interview says: "The strikers have
no real grievance. They ask us to re
instate man whose place has been
filled. think our contention is sound,
that company's officers should be al
lowed to judge whether n man is a
proper person to protect the interests
of the road.
Il understand the strikers in New
York complain because we have en-
ployed watchmen in the Mott Haven
yards. We have been troubled for
some time with thefts there, and it is
hardly debatable that we are justified
in employing detectives If we deem 1t
necessary"
